Volume 1 The Age of Chaos Chapter 58 Upstart
"What's wrong with this Xu Xian? Miss Ben's post, he dares not to accept it?"
In a luxurious building in Linxue City, a cup of herbal tea was slammed to the ground, the porcelain bowl shattered into a dozen pieces, and the tea was spilled on the ground.
The person who smashed the cup was a girl with round glasses, wearing a gorgeous white fox fur, and her rosy cheeks were very cute with a furry neckline.
Sitting beside her was Miao Fu, the president of the Linxue City Branch of the Hanging Pavilion Chamber of Commerce, who moved his fat body, leaned sideways and said with a careful smile: "Young Master Xu may be preparing for the competition and concentrating on cultivation." ”
"Bullshit, when is this level of competition worth his concentration?" Li said cautiously: "Senior Sister Fan didn't go with me, she ran away by herself, and finally there was someone I knew here, and he didn't even see me!"
Where did Miao Fu have the courage to accept such words, he had to say: "Fifth Miss, Young Master Xu is not free, I can let others accompany you to watch the game." ”
Li Chengxin was ranked fifth among Li Chengkong's apprentices, so he was called the fifth lady.
The girl waved her hand impatiently and said, "What's so good about your broken game? Anyway, the first group must be Xu Xian winning the championship, and the second group of games without Senior Sister Fan is not interesting at all. ”
Miao Fu wiped the sweat from his forehead with a delicate square scarf, and said: "Not really, this time the first group had a big upset, using the third-order realm to defeat a fourth-order peak grand master, and that great grandmaster is still the cousin of the bishop of our Linxue Martial Temple." ”
"Huh?" Li carefully tilted his head, and then he became a little interested, and asked, "What is the name of this big unpopular person?"
Miao Fu had already prepared, he beckoned, and his subordinates immediately handed over a booklet. He took the booklet, flipped through it quickly with his stubby fingers, and handed it to Li Chengxin.
Li carefully took a look and saw that the words "Bai Xiaoyao" were written on it, and some simple personal identification information was introduced later.
"This person is too ordinary, a thirty-year-old third-order peak, born as a mercenary, not even a martial god believer, such a guy with no identity and no background can beat Zhang Li's cousin?" Li asked cautiously and suspiciously.
Miao Fu smiled and said: "This is the strangest part, he is wearing a mask, no one can recognize him, with a very strange martial arts skill in the arena, Zhang Li's cousin Xiang Kun can't even touch the corners of his clothes, and in the end he was dragged to voluntarily admit defeat." ”
"The identity is a mystery and the martial arts are weird?" Li Cheng smiled and said, "This is a little interesting, is there anything else?"
Miao Fu tugged at the corners of his mouth, as if he was struggling inwardly for a while, and finally chose to lean towards his big boss.
"Hey, what about this, Young Master Xu was very interested in this Bai Xiaoyao in the arena yesterday, and he went to visit the other party last night, and after returning to the room, he began to close the door and no one. ”
"Huh?" Li Chengxin's eyes lit up, and then he frowned again, slapped his palm on the table, and scolded: "Such an interesting thing, why didn't you say it just now!"
"Hehe, Zhang Li is not my brother-in-law......" Miao Fu smiled.
Li carefully raised his eyebrows, snorted, "Okay", and thought in his heart, Xu Xian saw that he was happy to hunt and find someone to discuss this kind of thing in private, whether he won or lost, it was not good to say it.
If you win, it will be the Martial God Temple that will oppress people, and if you lose, you will be slapped in the face if you pretend to be unable to force it.
This kind of thing, Zhang Li, who is the bishop of the Martial God Temple in Linxue City, didn't dare to leak it, so he told his wife to hear about it, but he didn't expect it to leak to his uncle Miao Fu.
So, from this point of view, Xu Xian also lost to this Bai Xiaoyao?
Thinking of this, Li Xin suddenly scratched his heart like a hundred claws, and his hand knocked on the table again and again: "Miao Fu, in the next game, you want to find a way to arrange a fourth-order peak for this Bai Xiaoyao! Don't want a great grandmaster, find him a star mage! I want to see how he fights!"
Miao Fu hurriedly responded, he summoned his subordinates, exchanged a few words quickly, and then took back the booklet, flipped through it, and handed it to Li Cheng again.
"Miss Five, look at this contestant. ”
Li carefully took the booklet, only to see that the standard name on it was "Liao Yuhua", which was a fourth-order peak star mage, thirty-seven or eighteen years old, and a woman.
Miao Fu explained on the side: "Liao Yuhua is a very famous mercenary in our area, she was originally a warrior of the Sky Temple, but more than ten years ago, I don't know why she fell out with the temple, killed two colleagues, fled from the Western Continent to the Southern Continent, and became a mercenary. ”
"She's been stuck at the peak of the fourth order for ten years, and in those ten years, she has participated in every extraordinary and irregular ring, and she has always finished in the top three. Compared to fighting monsters, she kills people more powerfully, and what she receives on weekdays is often those gray, high-paying lists, but she is not a simple character. ”
Judging from her past performances in the ring, her shots are as fast as lightning and her moves are unexpected, and her opponents are often beaten to death inexplicably. She also used these competitions to show her regular patrons that she still has the ability to do those difficult tasks. ”
Li carefully listened carefully while looking at the booklet in his hand. After a moment, she nodded and said, "Yes." ”
Miao Fu's brows furrowed, and he glanced at his subordinates, asking people to go and arrange it immediately. At this moment, Li Xianxin suddenly said again: "However, I don't like this woman. The next game doesn't matter if she wins or loses, kill her. ”
Cold sweat broke out on Miao Fu's forehead again, he wiped his sweat with a square towel, and nodded again and again.
"Alright, let's go and play!" Li carefully threw the booklet away, stretched his waist, jumped off his chair, and left in a hurry.
......
At the same time, on the streets of Linxue City.
A tall figure was slowly moving forward, she was wearing a wide red cloak with a hood covering the upper half of her face, but the delicate contours of her face and her beautiful bright red lips revealed from the lower half of her face could still be recognized as Fan Jianxue.
She walked the streets in a low-key manner, buying dry food and daily necessities at some storefronts and weaving through the crowds.
Suddenly, she said in a very low voice: "Don't follow me anymore, in a few days I will be in the Western Continent, where it is my territory." Go there, and you will surely die. ”
After a moment of silence, a voice came from the shadow behind Fan Jianxue's feet, which only she could hear.
"If I'm going to die, why are you telling me?"
Hearing this, Fan Jianxue bit her lip, her eyes hidden under the hood closed, and her long eyelashes suppressed the anger that was about to erupt.
Ever since she was entangled by this humanoid monster named Zero, she had been in great trouble.
Not only was she unable to make a move on this monster, but more importantly, the strange spell she placed on the other party affected her secret talisman and caused problems in her cultivation. At first, she found that her cultivation speed was getting slower and slower, and later, her cultivation directly came to a standstill. Now, her cultivation realm has even begun to regress!
Although the speed of regression was very slow, the sand accumulated into a tower, and once the time passed, she was worried that she would soon fall from the realm of the peak of the fifth order.
However, Fan Jianxue did not want to turn to other people or forces. Once those apparent allies knew about her situation, no one could say whether they would bite back. The black-robed monster made such a big disturbance in Breeze City, if those people learned of her predicament and said that she was entangled and traded with the black-robed monster, she wouldn't be able to tell with her ten mouths, after all, the Southern Continent was not in the sphere of influence of the Star Tower.
She didn't want to take the risk.
Therefore, the best way is to suppress this matter, quietly return to the Western Continent, back to Mingcheng, where the Star Tower is located, where there are countless masters, and Fan Xing, one of the strongest people in the world, no matter how strong Ren Ling is, he can't set off a storm.
However, Huiming City is not foolproof. In case she approached Mingcheng, Zero sensed the danger, and whether she would make any drastic moves, she couldn't predict at all. What's more, she can't tell if the spell the other party has put on her for any other strange use. Therefore, she can only try to convince the other party with her words constantly.
It's a pity that this monster is much smarter than most people.
"Hmph, if you don't want to leave, just stay, and bear the consequences. Fan Jianxue suppressed her anger and snorted weakly.
At this moment, her body was suddenly lightly bumped, and a fat man full of alcohol staggered past her, burping and talking nonsense, passing by Fan Jianxue, and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
"That's not right!" Fan Jianxue's eyes froze suddenly.
Even if there is a problem with her realm cultivation and her mind is not as solid as before, where can a drunkard passing by on the street say that she can bump into it? Not to mention......
In just an instant, Fan Jianxue found that the dry food and daily necessities she had just bought in her package, as well as the heavy money bag, were all gone. Instead, there was a large handful of stones of the same weight.
"Thief, how is it possible!" she suddenly became nervous, what kind of thief could silently steal the contents of a fifth-order peak transcendent package in an instant?
Fan Jianxue's thoughts flew up all of a sudden.
Even if the other party is really a thief with a superb realm and extremely strong skills, it is impossible to stare at a fifth-order peak transcendent on the road to steal, this will only cause trouble for himself. With such a level and technique, even if you steal all over the street, you won't be discovered......! Does the other party have another purpose?
But no matter what...... It doesn't seem to work either. No matter how high her realm and strength are, she still has to eat and drink. Even if she flies in the sky, flying back to the Western Continent is not something that can be done in a day, and a penny is difficult for a hero, not to mention that there are many important things in that package.
"Could it be that this thief has been eyeing me for a long time? I don't even know my whereabouts. Could it be that this thief is staring at the transcendental? What is his purpose?"
At this moment, Fan Jianxue, with the excellent eyesight of the Sky Walker, suddenly caught a glimpse of the drunkard fat man again.
The man stood two streets away, his purse in his hand, smiled at him, and dodged into a corner.
If it was before, Fan Jianxue would not have paid attention to this person at all at this time. She will directly find the local Martial God Temple to inform her of this, and let the Martial God Temple find the trouble of this thief, and she only needs to stay in the luxurious room provided by the temple to enjoy the service, and wait for the lost property to be retrieved. But now, how could she show up so easily?
Thinking of this, Fan Jianxue gritted her teeth, pulled her hood down again, covered her entire face as much as possible, and strode towards the corner where the fat man had disappeared.
