Chapter Seventy-Four: The Fufeng Inn

After Si Le left the training hall, Qin Xiaomo and her teammates formally introduced themselves to one another.

There were ten people per team; theirs was Team Seven. Besides Xu Qinxian, Xu Zixian, and Bai Ji, the other six members included Chao Feng, whose long hair fluttered elegantly and who wore sea-blue robes fastened with a purple jade belt, his demeanor slightly aloof. Tang Liang, Bai Xiao, and Jiang Quan were known as the Three Prodigies of Lingxiao, making their names with a flute, a sword, and a guqin as they roamed the martial world. Among them, Lu Shuling was the only other woman besides Qin Xiaomo and Xu Qinxian. She wore her hair coiled atop her head, dressed in a simple training outfit; her skin was tanned from years of travel, her cheeks tinged a wind-burned red, a string of silver bells hung from her wrist, and she carried a cloth bag on her back—one that looked like the kind Liu Banxian used to fill with…

When Shen Hao awoke, Elder Zou withdrew the needle he had been using and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

Lu Fei and Fan Shuiqing exchanged a glance. They hadn’t expected this turn of events, but neither minded; it was clear from this incident just how capable Zhao Liurou was. Would such things happen to just anyone?

A few days later, Xie Jiayan slung an old, worn bamboo basket with a broken base over her arm and personally set out to find “the door,” replacing the old basket with a new one herself.

She hugged Su Luo tightly, like a blissful koala, wishing never to let go for the rest of her life.

Not long after, in Zhang Guifang’s main camp, Yang Sen realized that King Mo had been killed. He was shocked and grieved, and in his anger, he issued a challenge beneath the city walls.

Without hesitation, he spurred his spirit-light shuttle to its limit and vanished into the sky as a streak of radiance.

Bit by bit, he picked at his flesh, pulling it out piece by piece and tossing it aside without mercy.

Yueli still held a posture ready to charge forward, when Shixun wrapped his arms around her waist from behind. At this moment, they were pressed close together.

Xiao Lin said, “As the saying goes, Buddha has his own face, gods have theirs, and people have the faces of mortals. He’s a stranger to us—what’s the point of going?”

Many of the cultivators watching nearby, enticed by the rewards on the notice, began to stir with excitement.

“Of course!” Qin Hai nodded. The Black Dragon Society was currently combing the city for news of those men in black. Now that Iron Hand had arrived as well, he felt he could relax about Minako and the others’ safety, so spending another day tomorrow with Bai Ruyan would be no problem at all.

Ye Fei and the others were already exhausted. After Gu Qi gave a few instructions, they each found their rooms and collapsed into sleep.

Don’t be fooled by the Pig-Dragon Clan’s half-swine blood; they weren’t stupid in the least. Especially their leader, Zhu Sanguai, who was clever indeed. He knew that with just their clan members, whether they went to the front lines or to Ghost Dragon City, it would be certain death.

At the same time, a nascent sword intent burst forth, reflecting off the peerless prince’s divine blade, making it impossible to withstand.

“What are you doing?” Xiao Mei was stunned. This posture was too dangerous for her; facing Liu Mang, she could be taken advantage of at any moment. Never mind being kissed—if Liu Mang wanted to lift her skirt and play horse games, nothing would stop him.

“This team intends to disrupt the timeline. I’ll leave it to you…” Qing Dai made a special gesture to the four bronze dragon projections, then stepped aside to watch.

Before the burly black man could run far, a gunshot rang out with a bang. A bloody hole appeared in his back—his heart blasted apart by a bullet from behind.

If Li Chiyan harbored even a sliver of feeling for Lingxi, the Hehuan Pill would magnify it infinitely, until it became a raging inferno.

Cube: In three years, you must lay down a powerful magic formation. I’ve already given you all the information.

Now, every gesture she made radiated a natural allure. Without any deliberate seduction, a simple smile or glance from her was enough to stir the heart.

In the midst of conversation, the orc warrior on duty in the tribe arrived. After respectfully saluting Wu Yue, he invited the three of them to enter the camp.

The timing chosen by the raiding squad was truly impeccable—neither too soon nor too late—arriving precisely as the main forces of both armies were locked in fierce combat.
