Xiao Lang smiled softly and said, "I also want to know the answer to this question."
"It doesn't make sense that a young man from a small world could have such great abilities. This... it doesn't make sense at all!" The Blood Skeleton Killer seemed to be deeply confused, shaking his head and murmuring.
"Perhaps you shouldn't think about this at this time, because it is meaningless to a person who is about to die!" Xiao Lang made a light move with his right hand, and the sword that fell to the ground with the blood-skeleton hand immediately flew to his in hand.
The slightly chilling tip of the sword touched the throat of the blood-skeleton killer.
The blood-skeleton killer suddenly came to his senses, and the doubts and confusion in his eyes immediately receded like a tide, replaced by a scalp-numbing coldness. He smiled evilly and said, "I admit that I failed. If you don’t do anything, I’ll kill it myself!”
After saying that, without waiting for Xiao Lang to react, the blood-skeleton killer suddenly took out a dark dagger from his arms and stabbed his chest fiercely.
"You..." Xiao Lang couldn't help being surprised, but he didn't expect that this killer was so tough.
"Do... As a blood skeleton killer, when the mission fails, there is only one choice, and that is... death! However, don't be complacent. After I die, other blood skeleton killers will come to you, one after another. , never stop until... you die!"
Seeing the blood-skeleton killer tilting his head and suddenly regaining his vitality, Xiao Lang's heart felt no lightness at all, but instead became heavier. What the Blood Skeleton Killer said before he died was by no means a threat, but a fact. From now on, even if Ling Wushuang, as the financial owner, takes the initiative to cancel the assassination, it will be useless.
The true energy from the Ming Shen Soul Jade was extremely abundant, and it was easy to help Xiao Lang recover to the middle level of the Earth Wheel, let alone Wandong, who was only at the peak of the Yellow Species. It only took about a stick of incense for Wan Dong to open his eyes.
He was full of energy, no fatigue at all, and he was obviously back as before.
Glancing at the Blood Skeleton Killer lying aside, Wan Dong smiled and said, "This bastard is finally dead, and our escape career can finally end."
Xiao Lang didn't know what to say, so he just smiled and shook his head. Not only is the escape career not over, but it is just the beginning, and it will become more and more dangerous!
Wan Dong didn't notice Xiao Lang's strange expression and asked, "Brother, what are your plans next? Come back to Divine Thunder City with me."
Xiao Lang is a genuine monk, and he has reached the primary level of the Earth Wheel. He is considered a master among monks. His understanding of the monks and his understanding of the Taoist world are a huge asset to Wandong. Wandong very much hopes that Xiao Lang can become Wang Yangde, Luo Xiao and the others' first teacher, laying a solid foundation for them to enter the Taoist world in the future.
Wan Dong originally thought that Xiao Lang would readily agree to his proposal, but in the end, Xiao Lang frowned and said solemnly: "I'm afraid not! This miracle has appeared for the second time. I have to find out its origin as soon as possible. Otherwise, who knows whether this miracle will appear for the third time, and who knows what will happen after the miracle appears for the third time?”
"Brother, are you going back to Ascension Continent?"
Xiao Lang hummed and said, "Only when we return to Shengtian Continent can we find out everything."
Wandong pondered for a moment and said, "Then I will go with you!"
"Are you going too?" Xiao Lang was slightly surprised.
Wandong smiled and said, "Yeah, it's idle anyway! It's a good thing to go to the legendary Ascension Continent to broaden your horizons!"
"But there will be danger..."
"I wouldn't bother to go if it wasn't dangerous!"
"You... Hahaha... You haven't returned to Thunder City for ten days. Aren't you afraid that your friends will be worried?" Xiao Lang smiled and shook his head.
Wandong's expression condensed, and he said quietly, "They will indeed be worried about me, but I think they must have full confidence in me, so it won't be a problem!"
Despite Wan Dong's free and easy words, if he knew that Wan Haoxiong and Wan Youqi were in Divine Thunder City at this time, he might not be able to say these words.
"Okay! Although I still don't know what this miracle is about, I vaguely feel that it is not a good sign. You are a kid with many tricks, and you surprise me every time! With you by my side, my heart It’s definitely more practical!”
"Haha... What are you waiting for? Brother, lead the way!"
Accompanied by the laughter of Wandong and Xiao Lang, the two people turned into streams of light and flew away towards the Shengtian Continent.
It's the time to light up the lights in the Divine Thunder City. In the past, Zhu Cai's inn was always very busy at this time. People eating and staying were coming one after another. It would never be peaceful unless it was noisy until midnight.
But today was different. Zhu Cai had people close the door of the inn early, and he drank alone with a sad face.
In the past ten days, Zhu Cai went to the city lord's mansion from time to time to inquire about news about Wandong, but he came back disappointed every time. In the first few days, Zhu Cai would comfort himself, but after there was no news from Wandong for more than ten days in a row, Zhu Cai finally couldn't stand it anymore and was so anxious that he didn't even think about doing business.
"Second brother, are you drunk again?" Zhu Cai's eldest brother finished his work and sat across from Zhu Cai, his face full of concern and worry.
Zhu Cai waved his hand and said: "Brother, don't worry about me, just let me drink. I can't sleep without drinking."
Zhu Cai's eldest brother originally wanted to say thank you, but when Zhu Cai said this, all he could say was a sigh. He silently took a wine glass and drank with Zhu Cai.
After a few glasses of wine, Zhu Cai's eyes started to heat up, and he said drunkenly, "Brother, tell me, is my brother a good person?"
Zhu Cai's eldest brother poured a full glass of wine into his stomach and said, "If he were not a good person, let alone Baoer Beier, even your sister-in-law and I would have become dead souls."
"Yes! I think back then, the Ghost Forbidden Army and Yu Qinglin took turns causing harm. If my brother hadn't stepped forward, I don't know how many people would have died! My brother, he is a good man who has accumulated great virtues, but... But why does God have trouble with him? Is this God really blind?" When Zhu Cai got excited, he couldn't help but slam the table, shaking the dishes on the table. Staggering around.
"Second brother, you have to believe that good people are rewarded, and the city lord will be fine!"
"But... But there has been no news from my brother for more than ten days. How to explain this? Miss Chu said that this time, my brother has encountered an unprecedentedly powerful enemy. I..." As he said this, Zhu Cai couldn't bear it. I was so worried that I shed tears.
When Zhu Cai's eldest brother was about to comfort him a few more words, there was a sudden knock on the door. Zhu Cai's eldest brother was about to get up and open the door. Zhu Cai suddenly grabbed a wine glass on the table, threw it out, and shouted angrily, "I'm in a bad mood today. If you don't want to do business, get out of here!"
"Second brother!" Seeing Zhu Cai being so impulsive and angry, Zhu Cai's eldest brother looked worried.
Zhu Cai waved his hand and said, "Brother, don't worry about him. When he gets tired of knocking, he will leave naturally. Come on, let's continue drinking!"
However, Zhu Cai obviously underestimated the patience of the person who knocked on the door. Even though Zhu Cai continued to curse, the other person had no intention of giving up at all.
Finally, Zhu Cai's eldest brother couldn't bear it anymore, stood up and said, "I'd better go take a look and find a way to get rid of him."
"That's unreasonable! I don't need you, I'll go!" Zhu Cai also stood up quickly, pushed his eldest brother back on the chair, and rushed towards the door with long strides.
"Where did you come from, you bastard? Can't you understand people?" Zhu Cai yelled angrily while he was still opening the door.
But when Zhu Cai opened the door and took a look, his anger immediately disappeared. Outside the door, he saw a young woman in her twenties, looking at him with tears in her eyes, her brows full of despair and pleading.
Zhu Cai is not a hard-hearted person. Moreover, facing such a pair of helpless eyes, how many people can not feel sympathy
"Girl, you..." Zhu Cai's attitude suddenly softened.
"Help...save us?" Before the woman could finish her words, tears started to flow down her face, and her aggrieved look made people feel sad.
When Zhu Cai heard what she said, he realized that there was another person in the girl's arms. She looked like a woman in her clothes, but her body was covered in blood. It looked like she had been seriously injured. She should have been unconscious at this time. Dead in the past.
"Are you from the Shengtian Continent?" For such a long time, Zhu Cai received many warriors from the Shengtian Continent, which greatly improved his eyesight.
The woman nodded slightly.
"Did you encounter a powerful fairy beast? Otherwise, how could you be so seriously injured?"
This time, the woman neither answered nor nodded, but chose to remain silent.
Seeing this, Zhu Cai didn't ask any more questions, and hurriedly shouted into the inn, "Brother, come and help!"
Zhu Cai's eldest brother came over after hearing this, and then the two of them carried the unconscious woman into the inn. The woman then followed, not forgetting to close the door carefully, as if she was afraid someone would chase her.
Zhu Cai ran an inn with not much else but a lot of rooms. He chose a quieter one and put the unconscious woman on the bed. Only then did Zhu Cai discover that there was another bone-deep wound on her shoulder. It looked like she had been injured by a sharp weapon. Thinking of the young woman's caution, Zhu Cai immediately judged that she was probably not injured by a fairy beast, but more like being chased by an enemy.
"Boss, you... do you have any trauma medicine here?" the young woman asked hopefully.
"Yes, yes! I'll get it for you right now!"
Zhu Cai is a man with a lively mind and is extremely good at discovering business opportunities. Ever since he discovered that more and more warriors from the Ascension Continent came to the Divine Thunder City to rest, he began to stock up on some healing elixirs. Faced with extremely fierce immortal beasts, even warriors from the Ascension Continent rarely survive unscathed. When you arrive at Zhu Cai's place, you can not only stay and eat in a hotel, but also receive medical treatment. This is undoubtedly a great convenience for those warriors.
After going back and forth, not only did it bring extra benefits to Zhu Cai, but it also made his inn more prosperous and lively, with a steady flow of customers! (To be continued)
