Outside the Yumen Pass, in the ruins of an ancient city in the desert.

A team of more than a dozen people settled here and carefully explored the neighborhood, striving to miss every detail.

They wore uniform white uniforms and headscarves that covered their heads, and they looked well-trained and formal.

After a while, the team members gathered the information one by one, and then an adjutant reported it to a tall man at the head.

The man didn't hide his face, after all, he was more than two meters tall, and his hair was a strange purple color, which was too distinct to be necessary.

"Captain, Chai Kun's horse team is missing here......"

"The enemy cleaned all traces of all kinds, leaving no clues.

"Lao Cha's spiritism has not been rewarded...... The other party is very cautious, it should be a veteran, not like a fourteen-year-old girl can do it.

"In addition, I have also set up rituals and used the spell of communication plants, but they also seem to be affected and refuse to say anything.

"In the end, the enemy is very cunning, and there are footprints of the Chai Kun horse team in all directions, and we can't tell where they have gone."

The deputy-of-report is a well-proportioned, but fierce woman, although she can't see her face clearly because she is wearing a headscarf, but the exposed pair of demonic pupils have a different charm, which makes people can't help but fall into it at first sight.

"It seems that someone answered the girl surnamed Qi here...... In addition, she is an ordinary maid of the criminal official family, and she has actually cultivated into a superior true qi......

"Apparently she's gone astray and joined some evil organization!"

The purple-haired tall man spoke indifferently, and directly convicted Qi Feimeng of a "crime".

The female deputy nodded and followed, "When I go back, I will report to the county guard and issue a wanted warrant." ”

The purple-haired man looked at the sky that had completely darkened, and ordered again: "Well, since we haven't found anything, let's let the brothers hurry up and set up camp, and after we repair this ruin for one night, we will go to Dunhuang tomorrow to investigate who that girl has been in contact with before......

"If you can really dig up the clues of the hidden organization, it will be a great achievement."

"Yes," the deputy saluted, then hesitated for a moment and said, "Captain, do you want to send a telegram to Dunhuang and let them control the little girl's family first?"

"It's good to force that girl out......"

Before her words fell, she felt the captain's cold gaze fall on her, and she hurriedly stopped.

The purple-haired man stared at her face for a long time, until he looked at her hair, and then said meaningfully: "Hua'er, you have to remember that our 'Inhuman Battalion' belongs to the border garrison, although he takes the Chai family's money and helps them do some things on weekdays, but he is not his Chai family's dog!"

"This time, it is also that Qi girl may indeed have a problem, so I will follow the task of investigating.

"And the issuance of a wanted warrant for that girl is enough to give an account to the Chai family!

"What's more, you should have heard the news that Chai Yu Palace was severely damaged by the Divine Monk...... At this time, it is even more important not to do something superfluous. ”

……

Yumen County City, the new Golden Dart Martial Arts Hall in Shenshui Lane in the west of the city.

Relying on the cover of the "toad light", Zhao Chen successfully climbed through the courtyard wall in the backyard and returned to his room.

He checked the secret mark he had left before leaving, and was relieved to find that it had not been touched.

After hiding the "Chopping Wind" and the newly obtained "Sunset Sword", Zhao Chen walked to the side of the bed again and looked at Yan Hongxia, who was lying there quietly like a sleeping beauty, as if thinking about where to "start".

Then, after a little hesitation, he sat down on the edge of the bed and pulled Yan Hongxia's arm, intending to give her some blood as a "medium" when borrowing her strength.

After all, a cultivator's blood already contains its own essence and spirit, and essence blood can even multiply the power of some spells, which is the best "medium".

As for "freshness", it is not a problem, Zhao Chen is going to take out the blood, and then sell it directly to "Xingcha", and buy it back when necessary...... Although one in and one out will definitely be earned, considering that "freshness" requires costs, it is actually not a loss.

Moreover, the blood of the mana cultivator is not expensive, and the difference is only about 1 star coin, and Zhao Chen feels that he can afford it.

Although Qi Feimeng warned him not to borrow the power of others easily, lest he be assimilated by the other party, or even devoured...... But Yan Hongxia's situation is different, her entire "ownership" is now her own, how could Zhao Chen worry about being swallowed by her?

As for the issue of "assimilation", this is a bit troublesome, but fortunately, although Yan Hongxia's strength is higher than Zhao Chen's, her spirit, or soul, has not undergone substantial transformation, and it is actually very difficult to pollute his soul.

"It's just that you may be infected with some of Sister Hongxia's habits...... But that's also the result of frequent borrowing of power. Zhao Chen, who had borrowed Yan Hongxia's power once, naturally had his own estimate in his heart, but he still understood Qi Feimeng's kindness.

Thinking of Miss Qi, Zhao Chen bleed Sister Hongxia while recalling the conversation with the other party in the secret room under the ruins of the Temple of Light just now, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously hooked.

Because when I agreed to the other party's request for cooperation and asked her about her specific plan, the reply I got was "I don't know".

Qi Feimeng said even more confidently: "From being remembered by the Chai family, it has only been three days now, how can I have time to make any plans?"

"Moreover, 'knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent will not be defeated in a hundred battles', the first task now is to reconnoiter the enemy's situation.

"I remember you said that the Chai family planned to rob a pair of siblings at the dock before? Maybe you can get in touch with them and see if they have any valuable information there. ”

After the memories ended, after helping Sister Hongxia stop the bleeding and selling the blood to Xingcha, Zhao Chen seriously reflected on what happened that day:

Am I a little too concerned about Qi Feimeng? Even though they are friends, I also like her cool and generous temperament, and we still hold some secrets of each other...... But in front of her, I always unconsciously wanted to take responsibility...... It's like I owe her something.

You know, I'm not that concerned about avenging the original owner......

Is this the so-called conjunction? Or am I attracted to her?

It's not right, I have more impulsiveness towards Sister Hongxia than when I face her......

Could this also be the miracle of her true anger? Is this function of "great compassion and universal true qi" a little too much?

Fortunately, most of the decisions I made in my relationship with her came from my own heart, and she was indeed angry with me......

In short, when you are with Fei Meng in the future, you must always examine your heart and avoid the influence of emotion.

Just as he was thinking about it, there was a knock on the door outside, and Zhao Chen opened the door after a little tidying up, and found the master Huang Xianjun standing there with a smile on his face.

After welcoming the master in, Zhao Chen was about to make a cup of tea for him, but who thought that Master Huang sniffed, frowned and said, "There is a smell of blood......

Although his mana was abolished, his refined nose still maintained a certain miracle.

After speaking, he suddenly looked at the position of the bed in the inner room, and his face suddenly became strange.
