In the end, Li Kouyan still chose to lead the way for Qiao Suinian.
It was called a choice, but in reality, he didn't have much of a choice. He was completely forced into it, and for some reason, Li Kouyan felt like he had fallen into a den of thieves.
Along the way, Qiao Suinian also learned about the situation of Baili Pavilion from Li Kouyan.
After Hefu City became ruins, many small forces chose to settle here and establish themselves as kings of the mountains. Baili Pavilion is one of the more well-known forces among them.
Within Baili Pavilion, the three leaders are the main decision-makers: the eldest, Lei Chao; the second, Xue Pingxie; and the third, a woman known as Third Sister.
It is said that on the surface, Lei Chao is in charge of Baili Pavilion, but in reality, both Lei Chao and Xue Pingxie listen to San Niang. San Niang is the real brains of Baili Pavilion.
However, this claim has never been verified, and no one knows for sure whether it is true or not. Li Kouyan's claim is just hearsay.
As they spoke, they soon arrived at the entrance of Baili Pavilion.
Compared to the ruins everywhere, the existence of Bailige stands out in a particularly abrupt way. The feeling of a five-story building sitting in a pile of ruins is like a bright and beautiful Hatsune Miku emerging from a slum.
A gilded plaque hangs high, with the three characters "Bai Li Ge" written in a flamboyant style, looking very impressive. If you didn't know better, you might think you'd arrived at Brother Qiang's Bai Jinhan's place.
"My lord, this is Baili Pavilion." Li Kouyan's voice was much softer, not daring to speak loudly for fear of disturbing the people in the pavilion.
"Okay, I understand. Shi Yushan, call everyone out from inside."
Qiao Suinian had no intention of rushing in directly. Who knew what kind of ambush might be inside? Better safe than sorry.
Shi Yushan, who was standing to the side, nodded blankly, then took off his head and threw it into Baili Pavilion through the main gate.
"I***!"
Li Kouyan and the others following behind were instantly terrified. What was going on? Weren't they supposed to be escorting Shi Yushan back to Baili Pavilion? Why did Shi Yushan take his head off and throw it out? Was his head going back to reminisce before his body?
After Shi Yushan's head flew in, there was a commotion in Baili Pavilion, but it quickly quieted down.
Then a dozen or so people filed out, forming two lines as if they were welcoming someone. A tall, fat man with a lot of fat walked up to Qiao Suinian and bent down with difficulty.
"Brother, please come in! Our boss is waiting for you inside!"
Qiao Suinian couldn't help but be curious. The people of Baili Pavilion were really patient. After she threw Shi Yushan's head in, they could still invite her in.
Li Kouyan and his group were stunned by the scene before them. They thought a fight was about to break out. The people from Baili Pavilion had become so easy to talk to.
But Qiao Suinian's next words caused Li Kouyan and the others' blood pressure to spike again.
"Tell them to get out here. A mere Baili Pavilion is not qualified to let me in to see him." Qiao Suinian's tone was arrogant, his nostrils practically pointing to the sky.
Upon hearing this, Li Kouyan and the others turned pale, inwardly thinking that their lives were over.
As expected, as soon as Qiao Suinian finished speaking, murderous intent appeared in the eyes of the group led by the fat man from Baili Pavilion. Just then, a loud laugh suddenly came from inside Baili Pavilion.
"Hahaha! This guy really has guts!"
A bald, burly man in his thirties, wearing leather armor, walked out of Baili Pavilion. His leather armor had strange patterns on it, clearly indicating that it was a piece of armor of a high rank.
Behind him followed a young man with narrow, sinister eyes and a mature woman with a curvaceous figure, swaying her large hips and wearing a tight purple sweater.
The moment Qiao Suinian saw the woman, she suddenly understood what Xu Song meant by saying that purple was very charming.
"May I ask how I should address you, brother?" After the eldest brother, Lei Chao, appeared, he politely clasped his hands in a fist salute to Qiao Suinian.
"Wow, so tender!"
As a result, Qiao Suinian showed him no respect and immediately forced him to acknowledge her as his son.
Lei Chao's face twitched involuntarily, as if he was suppressing his anger, and the atmosphere suddenly fell silent.
"Hehe, brother, there's no need to get so worked up. Let's talk things over."
"Shut up, you have no right to speak here."
Xue Pingxie tried to ease the tension, but Qiao Suinian didn't give him any face at all, and Xue Pingxie's face darkened.
"Young man, you're so hot-tempered, how about I help you cool down?"
Third Sister's lips curled into a flirtatious smile, exuding charm and allure. She was well aware of her own allure; a mature woman's charm is irresistible to a naive young man.
Without even talking, Qiao Suinian rolled her eyes and handed the Haoye Dragon Staff to Third Sister.
"Here, take it. Go over there and have your fun before you come back."
Third Sister's smile instantly froze on her face.
Qiao Suinian offended all three leaders of Baili Pavilion with his first words. Li Kouyan and the others were going crazy. They felt their blood pressure was like a roller coaster, going up and down and soaring.
More importantly, the three leaders of Baili Pavilion have been trying to give Qiao Suinian a way out, but Qiao Suinian just won't budge! He's incredibly arrogant. What is this eldest brother after?
Li Kouyan and the others were completely baffled. They were beginning to regret following Qiao Suinian. Although they had gone hungry for three days and nine meals a day, they were still able to survive. Now, they might all perish here.
Qiao Suinian finally breathed a sigh of relief as the notification gradually stopped.
[Note: Li Kouyan detected that you are extremely arrogant. The current upgrade progress of the Evil God's Power is 2/100.]
[Note: Lu Renjia has detected that you are extremely arrogant. Current upgrade progress of the Evil God's Power: 3/100]
......
[Note: Lei Chao has detected that you are extremely arrogant. Current upgrade progress of the Evil God's Power: 26/100]
[Note: Xue Pingxie has detected that you are extremely arrogant. Current upgrade progress of the Evil God's Power: 27/100]
It has to be said that showing off is a skill, and Qiao Suinian realized that he hadn't been showing off enough in his daily life, and his attempts at it were still a bit clumsy.
That's true. He usually plays the sixth role, and what sixth role would pretend to be something he's not? They all disappear without a trace after accomplishing their task, keeping their achievements hidden.
If it weren't for collecting the power of the evil god, he wouldn't have gone through all that trouble to go through the front door; it would have been so much simpler to sneak in through the back door of Baili Pavilion.
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Qiao Suinian stopped pretending.
He rubbed his hands together and said to Third Sister in a very cheerful manner.
"Sis, I'm sorry, I was just possessed by a ghost. Can you ask me again, what did you just say?"
Third Sister was somewhat dazed and murmured unconsciously.
"You're so angry, how about I help you cool down?"
Snap!
Qiao Suinian immediately grabbed San Niang's fair wrist.
"No problem! Let me make this clear first, I'm an honest man, a pure virgin, and have never been with a woman before, so you have to be gentle!"
