The young lord of Scorpion City had a terribly gloomy expression on his face. He had never felt such a strong murderous intent in his heart before. He did like other people's wives, but he did not like his wife to fall into the arms of another man.
This is an insult to him.
"Brother Tang, calm down. Why get so angry over an ungrateful woman and an unknown person?" another young man grinned. "If you're not happy, just have someone assassinate that guy."
"Even if someone finds out one day, who can say anything?"
The Lord of Sand City's eyes flickered slightly, and he raised his head to meet the young man's gaze. A sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "Killing is not necessary. I have thought of a more interesting way to play."
"Oh? Brother Tang, tell me about it." The young man became playful and interested.
The Young City Lord sneered, "She's having an affair with that brat, isn't she? We'll give her a big surprise on our wedding night. It's sure to tear her apart."
The young man put his ear close to listen to the young city lord's plan. As he listened, his eyes showed excitement and he clapped his hands in anticipation.
After discussing for a moment, the young city lord suddenly stood up and shouted, "Come here, prepare the sedan chair. I want to go to Jianxia City immediately to inform the Bai family that the wedding will be moved up. Tomorrow I will marry the girl from the Bai family!"
"Notify the disciples hiding in Jianxia City to capture the boy who met Bai Mian during the day. Capture him, don't kill him."
“…”
Late at night, Pingxiang Pavilion in Jianxia City.
Xue Kong sat cross-legged on the bed with an ancient booklet on his legs. At this moment, as Xue Kong's spiritual power flowed into the Heavenly Mirror, the first page of the Heavenly Mirror slowly opened by itself.
On this first page, there is a golden rune, emitting bright golden light, rising from the page.
The golden light illuminated Xue Kong's face. He murmured, "It looks like a heavenly-grade magic weapon, but in fact, its value far exceeds that of a spiritual-grade magic weapon. It is worthy of being the treasured possession of a prince of a fourth-level cultivation nation."
"With my current cultivation and experience, I cannot fully understand this treasure."
"I can only try to comprehend this golden symbol and imprint it with my cultivation, making it my own magic."
This Heavenly Mirror is extremely extraordinary. At first, Xue Kong did not have any special feelings about it. However, when he began to comprehend the golden runes on the Heavenly Mirror, a feeling of vastness suddenly filled his mind.
His eyes were illuminated by golden light.
In his eyes, the gold color was not clear. The flickering bright golden light obscured the runes inside. Even though Xue Kong tried very hard to check, all he could see was a blur and he could not see the runes clearly.
He had a feeling that once he comprehended this golden rune, he would gain powerful magical skills.
In this state of shock, Xue Kong immersed himself in cultivation.
at the same time.
On the street outside Pingxiang Pavilion, darkness enveloped the sky and the earth. Under the dim lights of the shops on both sides, several figures approached quietly. They were dressed in black, as if blending into the night.
Bai Shan'an is the captain of this extermination team.
His cultivation level was at the eighth level of Qi Condensation. Under Bai Jiumu's orders, he brought six seventh-level Qi Condensation cultivators from his family just in case, just to attack and kill a mortal.
Bai Shan'an felt that this was simply an overkill. There was no need to mobilize so many troops. He could just find a cultivator in the family to do it. However, since this was the order of the Third Master, he dared not disobey.
So he brought six clansmen here and stood under Pingxiang Pavilion.
"Be careful and don't cause panic among others. It's too quiet at night. Try to kill him with one blow. Don't let that guy shout and alert others." Bai Shan'an ordered his men.
One person said disdainfully: "I am just a mortal. I can do it alone."
"Yeah." Bai Shan'an nodded. He felt that more people would make more noise. If this matter could be done without anyone knowing, and one person could do it, there would be no need to mobilize a large number of troops.
With Bai Shan'an's agreement, the man chuckled and thought to himself, "Working for the Third Master will definitely bring me benefits. I'll accept this contribution."
Then he glanced at the others provocatively and was met with jealous glances.
Everyone watched as he moved slightly and turned into a shadow, entered Pingxiang Pavilion, and then went straight to the guest room.
The monks have spiritual awareness and can see the situation inside the room without opening the door.
Outside Pingxiang Pavilion, six people including Bai Shan'an were quietly waiting for news from that person. However, strangely, the person had entered Pingxiang Pavilion for a long time but there was no sound.
Not only did no news come, there was no movement for half a day.
"Something is going on. He has been in there for so long. Even if he was noticed by the other party, even if the other party is also a cultivator, there should be sounds of fighting. How could it be so quiet?" Bai Shan'an frowned.
The two Bai family cultivators immediately rolled their eyes and volunteered, "I'll go check out the situation."
Bai Shan'an thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "This matter is very strange. It seems that the boy is not an ordinary person. Don't underestimate the enemy anymore. Let's attack together."
The two Bai family cultivators had no idea what to say and could only agree.
A group of six people quietly entered Pingxiang Pavilion.
Come to the guest room.
The six people spread out their spiritual consciousness, sweeping through each guest room and seeing the situation inside. In the last guest room, they found something wrong.
In the guest room, Xue Kong was sitting cross-legged on the bed with his eyes closed. There was an ancient book between his legs. On the book was a golden rune that emitted a dazzling light.
Opposite Xue Kong, the cultivator from the Bai family who was the first to enter Pingxiang Pavilion was now standing in the room with a dazed look on his face, his eyes dull, as if he was caught in an illusion.
Bai Shan'an's heart was pounding. His spiritual sense was locked on the golden rune on Xue Kong's leg, but he didn't feel anything special. With his level of cultivation, he couldn't even tell that this thing was extraordinary.
Only from these extraordinary methods can we see that Xue Kong must also be a cultivator.
So, Bai Shan'an led the other five people into the room and came in front of Xue Kong. When Xue Kong closed his eyes, Bai Shan'an clasped his hands together, cast a spell, and went straight to Xue Kong.
However, the spell was surging and powerful at first, but when it got close to Xue Kong, it dissipated silently, as if it had never existed.
"Not good! This person has a high level of cultivation and is a great monk!" Bai Shan'an's eyes widened in horror.
He could easily dissolve the spells of someone who was at the eighth level of Qi Condensation, so his cultivation must be above the Foundation Establishment level.
It was not an enemy he could fight against at all.
The five people behind him also had their hearts pounding. They finally understood why there had been no movement coming from here. In front of such a powerful cultivator, there was no need for any fighting at all.
Just as Bai Shan'an was about to take them away, Xue Kong's eyes, which had been tightly closed, slowly opened, and a gleam of light flashed across his eyes.
"Since you're here, why rush to leave?" Xue Kong's voice was calm, but it sounded like thunder when heard by Bai Shan'an and others, making their heads buzz and they froze in place.
