At the beginning of the night, the city is lit up with thousands of colorful lights.

A young couple of men and women strolling along a crowded pedestrian street.

The young man looked at the bustling scene, his eyes showing eagerness and envy.

"It's amazing how people are nowadays to make such a lively city. I don't often come out to see the world, and I can't keep up with the times. "Although Wu Zong is young in appearance, he has been living for more than 200 years, and his strength has reached the realm of great witches. He is a rare genius of the Lich Clan, so he will be valued by a protector in the clan and accepted as an apprentice.

"Yes, the slave family hasn't come to the earthly drama for a long time, and the changes in the human city are really great. This time I was able to open my eyes, and it was all thanks to you. The third sister Bai had charming eyes and a voice like a crisp, flattering Wu Zong.

"Haha. Wu indulged in enjoying the compliments of the third sister Bai with peace of mind, she was the great witch of the lich clan, the proud disciple of one of the four protectors, and the third sister Bai was just a three-tailed fox demon who was loose in cultivation, and a monster like her had to be attached to a certain big man if she wanted to survive in the night world.

The third sister Bai held Wu Zong's arm, looking like a little bird.

The two walked to a stall, and Wu Zong took a blue bracelet and shone it under the small lamp next to the stall.

The stall owner smiled: "Dude is very discerning, this bracelet is a good jade, I have no more than three jade bracelets like this here." One of them is on your eye. ”

The corners of Wu Zong's mouth twitched, disapproving.

The stall owner continued: "You put it under the lamp and see how good this jade is, it is green and transparent, and it is silky and cool. Definitely a good piece of jade. ”

Wu Zong waved his hand impatiently and asked, "Don't talk so much." How much does it cost?"

"The original price is all five hundred. If you really like it, just give it four hundred and eight. "The stall owner saw that he was carrying a beautiful girl, and he must have pretended to be more generous for the sake of face, and it was unlikely that he would bargain for himself.

"This jade is not as good as you say. Although Wu Zong is not familiar with modern prices, he can still see the quality of jade itself. "Two hundred. ”

"Two hundred?!" the stall owner raised his voice and lied: "The purchase price of this bracelet is more than two hundred." ”

Wu Zong has lived for more than 200 years, how could he be frightened by this trick. He didn't want to say more, put down the jade and was about to leave.

When the stall owner saw that he didn't pretend to be wide in front of a beautiful girl, he miscalculated. Hurriedly said: "Two hundred is two hundred." I'm going to make friends with you at a loss. ”

Wu Zong threw down two hundred and took the bracelet to put on the third sister Bai.

Third Sister Bai looked flattered and said in surprise: "Thank you for the reward." Since birth, the slave family has never met anyone more generous than adults. The slave family must live up to the love of adults and do their best. As he spoke, he was about to bow down, but Wu Zong held her with his hand and shouted: "In front of so many people, kneel down at every turn, what does it look like!"

The third sister Bai was grateful again. She lived more than a hundred years longer than the witch, and in order to be attached to the Lich Clan, she had to curry favor with this young genius, saying so many things that gave her goosebumps.

After the two of them walked away, the stall owner still wondered about the relationship between the two: "What's the situation?"

Wu Zong and Bai Sanjie walked out of the pedestrian street, Bai Sanjie raised her arm, looking at the jade bracelet on her wrist, the white jade hand, and the fingertips with long nails like cat's claws. Said in a charming voice: "The slave family likes this bracelet very tightly." It's just that he did some small things for the adults, and he got such a gift, and the slave family deserved it. ”

Wu Zong glanced at her and said coldly: "There is less yin and yang." If you kill Ling Xuan Daoist and frame Moge, I will report to Master and give you a credit. ”

"Oh, my lord, what are you talking about, I'm not doing this for any merit, it's all for you. The third sister Bai pretended to be angry and slapped Wu Zong's shoulder twice coquettishly.

Wu Zong ignored her and continued, "Once we start a war with the inn, you will need to do more. ”

"Don't worry, this is nature. The third sister Bai took Wu Zong's arm again and asked, "When will we start moving?"

"When the Protector of Wuyan negotiates with the Yelu clan in the north, let's join forces with the Yelu to turn this Kyushu upside down. "These bustling cities will soon be ruined by them.

"However, although the slave family has the heart to contribute to the adult, but pity me for my lowly cultivation, I am afraid that it will become a drag on you. Third Sister Bai secretly observed Wu Zong's reaction: "This time I snatched the Seven Star Tree from Ling Xuan Daoren, you see, what should I do with it?"

"What you steal, it's yours. ”

Third Sister Bai's face suddenly showed joy.

"It's just that I'll keep it for you first. ”

Third Sister Bai's smile stiffened, and then she smiled reluctantly: "Then, thank you, adult." ”

"Don't feel wronged, I'm just keeping it for you, and it'll be yours in the future. In this era of imminent chaos, where can you keep such treasures?" Wu Zong made up his mind to lay down this seven-star tree.

"Yes, yes, my lord said very much. The third sister Bai forced a smile and read Wu Zong's family tree one by one in her heart.

"Hmm. Wu Zong was very satisfied with Bai Sanjie's attitude: "Let's go back." ”

The third sister Bai quickly adjusted back, and returned to her previous bewitching demeanor, she reached into Wu Zong's chest with one hand and stroked: "My lord has also worked hard recently. The slave family will have to serve you well tonight. ”

Wu Zong looked at the three sisters of Shangbai's eyes and nodded very happily.

In the north-east, there is a cold mountain range with an area of several thousand square kilometers, with hills and ravines in the mountains, scattered mountains, and towering forests. The Nightfish's native lair is deep in the mountains.

Xu Guan and the black cat came here and were marching deep into the mountains.

The geographical location of the place means that the climate is very different from the rest of the world. It has just begun to winter, and the rest of the region is just a little colder, and the temperature has dropped a little, but here there has already been a few snowfalls, everything is low, and the forest is silent, as if all living things are frozen and time seems to be frozen to a halt.

The faint morning sun pushed through the night, crept in through the dense foliage of the forest, and cast onto the snow.

The black cat squatted on the top of the tree, basking in the sun that was not hot, Xu Guan sat in the shade of the cold tree, meditating to recover his vitality, through these few days of hurrying, the true qi in his body was depleted and condensed several times, and it miraculously recovered to forty percent, and the meridians around his body were much tougher than before because of the internal and external cultivation in the past few days.

Xu observed the changes in his body and happily told the black cat.

The black cat came down along the trunk of the tree and guessed: "Maybe it's because the Yelu physique is yin, we have been cultivating in the cold night for the past few days, and coming to the vicinity of this long-term cold mountain range has also prompted your body to recover a little faster." ”

"Perhaps. Xu nodded and said, "The cold meaning of the Nightfish Lair is definitely several times better than here. ”

"It's nature. The black cat said: "Maybe when you get there, you don't have to eat the fruit of the Divine Tree, as long as you sit under the Divine Tree and cultivate for a period of time, you can recuperate your body." ”

"It's a pity that the Nightfish clan won't allow it. Xu Guan had heard the black cat introduce the tree, and knew that the place where the tree grew was the sacred place of the Nightfish clan, and it was impossible for them to let a hybrid Nightfish get close to that place, and it was still unknown whether they would cause a fight when they entered the Nightfish headquarters.

In short, judging by the attitude of purebred nightmarls towards hybrid nightmares, if they want to enter the nest, they can only sneak in, and must not let the nightmares inside the nest know.

The black cat's ears suddenly twitched, and he made a silent gesture towards Xu Guan, who did not know why.

Xu Guan held his breath and listened attentively, and vaguely heard some creature walking through the snow in the distance, stepping on the snow and making a small creaking sound.

A shot rang out suddenly! melodiously spread through the forest, shaking off a little snow from the nearby treetops.

Then there was a chaotic noise and the sound of running snow, and a group of nomads rushed out with shotguns in hand.

There were about twelve or thirteen of them, all dressed in coarse cloth, wrapped in animal skins, with a few strands of hair tied up and carrying primitive handmade jewelry.

Xu Guan hurriedly jumped on the trunk of the tree and hid on a thicker branch, the group of people passed by the tree where Xu Guan was hiding, and ran to a roe deer that had been shot and fell to the ground.

At first, Xu Guan thought they were indigenous savages, but when they passed under the trees, they could be identified as Chinese, and they knew that they were local nomads.

Xu Guan saw that they had gone far, so he no longer squatted on the tree to hide, and jumped down directly. The black cat said, "Go deeper and stop and rest." ”

Xu Guan responded and ran forward behind the black cat. After about two hours, they came to the denser depths of the forest, where the sunlight was completely cut off, and the forest was as dark as night, and there was no difference between day and night.

The pupils of Xu Guan's eyes dilated like a cat, faintly reflecting yellow light. The black cat crouched on his shoulder, and a pair of vertical pupils also expanded into an oval, lighting up in the darkness.

The black cat jumped onto a tree trunk and climbed up, and Xu Guan followed it and climbed up.

They sat on two branches, their eyes closed, condensing their true qi. This is the periphery of the Nightray Lair, and they need to adjust to the best condition before entering the lair, after all, it is unknown what kind of danger they will encounter once they enter.

A man and a cat sat quietly cross-legged in the trees, only the sound of long, gentle breathing was intermittent.

A day passed quickly, and the true qi in Xu Guan's body had been running for twenty-four days, and the dantian qi sea was already full;

In the silence and darkness of the forest, the two of them opened their eyes at the same time, emitting a bright light, and looked at each other, knowing that it was time to go in.

Xu Guan jumped lightly from the branch, feeling that he was in a good state now, and the black cat also landed lightly, walking silently towards the night lair.

PS: Just received another recommendation, thank you!
