Meanwhile, thousands of miles away, in a dilapidated inn, Zu'an and his group settled down to rest.
The owner and his staff were all killed and left in the woodshed. When they came to check in last night, they saw that Qiu Honglei and Jing Teng were beautiful and charming, so they had evil intentions and secretly put sleeping pills in their food, planning to rob them of their money and their virtue.
However, Zu'an was immune to all poisons, and Qiu Honglei, being from a demonic sect and experienced in the martial world, naturally noticed something immediately. When the bosses and waiters saw that things had been exposed, they simply rushed out to fight, but unfortunately, they did not expect that these few delicate young girls or pretty boys would be so strong in combat, and they were all quickly killed.
The group from Zaun were exhausted from their journey, especially Veso, who was vomiting every day and was practically half dead. So they decided to stay here for a few more days to rest and recuperate.
"Sigh, every shop is a rip-off. We've hardly met any good people along the way. This world is too scary," Qiu Honglei sighed, nestled in Zu An's arms in her room.
"It is precisely because people's hearts are like this that demons run rampant." Zu'an thought of Jing Teng's introduction to this world before. He didn't quite understand it at the time, but after immersing himself in the experience these days, he finally felt the same way.
"Grandpa, I'm worried about Master. I don't know how she is now." Qiu Hong's eyes were filled with worry.
"Don't worry, your master is incredibly skilled and has a wealth of experience in the martial world, he'll definitely be fine." Zu An gently tidied the strands of hair that had fallen across her face, but he was a little worried.
Yun Jianyue and Yan Xuehen are top-tier even among grandmasters. In addition, the two women have traveled the world for many years and have rich experience in the martial arts world. They are definitely not worried about protecting themselves.
In comparison, he was more worried about Xie Daoyun. When he was sucked into that black hole, he saw Xie Daoyun rush in to save people.
The young girl came from a prominent family and was raised in seclusion. Her last trip to Zishan was her first time traveling far alone, and she was as pure as a blank sheet of paper.
Although her cultivation level was not low, the world was full of treacherous people, and it was easy to dodge open attacks but difficult to guard against hidden arrows.
Unfortunately, we have no idea where she is, so there's nothing we can do to help her. We can only pray that she's with Yun Jianyue or Yan Xuehen after she came in, just like we are on the other side.
The two chatted for a while longer, and Qiu Honglei gradually fell asleep under his comforting care. Zu An gently covered her with the blanket.
Even when she was asleep, Qiu Honglei's face was perfectly flawless, with snow-white skin, red lips, delicate eyebrows, and a fine nose, making people sigh at why some people are so blessed by heaven.
Normally, Zu'an might have had some romantic thoughts, but now the world is full of dangers, not only is the road ahead uncertain, but he also has to worry about the others, so he really can't have any other thoughts.
After spending some time with her, he quietly left the room. After closing the door, he was about to go to his own room next door when he suddenly noticed that Jing Teng was sitting on the opposite roof. The originally evenly distributed moonlight seemed to be attracted to her, forming a hazy glow around her.
Upon closer inspection, one could see some crystalline specks of light entering her body, followed by the exhalation of something dull.
Zuan was somewhat surprised. Legend has it that some spirits can absorb the essence of heaven and earth, and he had witnessed it with his own eyes today.
Jing Teng stared at Zu An with his beautiful big eyes wide open, a slight smile playing on his lips: "Why don't you sleep with your girlfriend? I've never seen such a beauty as Qiu before, and she has such a natural charm. To be honest, even I, a woman, am a little tempted."
Zu An frowned and said, "Our relationship is as clear as the sun and moon, and we have always maintained proper etiquette. There's nothing like the nonsense you're thinking."
Jing Teng exclaimed in surprise, "I never expected that you, this lecherous scoundrel, would actually be a gentleman who upholds propriety?"
Zuan was speechless: "Am I a pervert or what? How did I become a pervert?"
"You know it yourself." Jing Teng snorted, then ignored him and jumped off the roof, slamming his bedroom door shut.
Zaun was left standing alone, bewildered in the wind. Wasn't that just an illusion last time? Why was he still holding onto it for so long?
...
As Xie Daoyun and Yun Jianyue descended from the head of the household's room in Wangjiawu, they encountered Wang Neishi, who was waiting there.
Upon seeing the two women, Wang Neishi was visibly surprised: "You two succeeded in making a deal with my father?"
"Yes, thank you for the introduction, Second Young Master." Xie Daoyun smiled gently at her.
"Ah, of course, of course." Wang Neishi looked somewhat disappointed. He had originally planned that they were in dire straits, and he would miraculously rescue them, at which point the two women would naturally repay him with their bodies...
"Please rest at my residence for a few days, ladies. My father and I are away for a few days, and we will come back to help you when the time comes."
Yun Jianyue was somewhat surprised. The talisman that Wang Youjun had just used had not made any sound, yet it seemed that everyone in Wangjiawu had received a notification. The talisman techniques of this world were truly amazing.
Xie Daoyun replied, "No need, we will go with your father."
"You're going too?" Wang Neishi was genuinely surprised. He suddenly remembered that his father had been missing a key figure lately. "Could you be the one who's proficient in formations?"
Seeing the other party nod, Wang Neishi's expression immediately became complicated. With such abilities, his father would probably not allow him to mess with her at will.
However, he quickly changed his mind and thought that only a woman as talented and beautiful as her was worthy of him. He might as well just ask her for her hand in marriage.
As for the other party's disagreement, it was not taken into consideration at all. No woman in the world could refuse to marry into the Wang family, especially since he was the elegant Wang Erlang.
Soon the group arrived at the Wang family's shipyard, where a large ship was moored. In terms of scale, imposing presence, and the complexity of the runes around the ship, it far surpassed the ship that Wang Neishi had previously owned.
