"So what if it's you?" His golden armor flickered for a moment, and as he sensed the familiar aura, he immediately cursed, "Another deceitful bastard."
When Yan An heard him scolding her, she put her hands on her hips and responded coldly, "You stinky scorpion, do you have the guts to scold me again?"
At this time, Xiaomei, who was behind them, saw that the two were about to fight, and hurried forward, "My Phoenix Clan girl, we were just deceived by a golden phoenix last time, so my husband is a little excited. I hope you don't mind."
"Jin Feng?" Lu Jingzhi looked at Yan An beside him, took her hand, and whispered in her ear, "Madam, she must be talking about Sister Feng Xi. Let's ask her where the desert town is."
"It's easier this way."
"Humph, I'm too lazy to bother with this stinky scorpion. Go ask it yourself."
Lu Jingzhi raised his gentle face, stepped forward, clasped his fists, and said, "Since it's a misunderstanding, how about we make a big deal out of a small matter and a small matter out of nothing?"
"Okay, I was wrong about what happened just now."
Yan An's expression softened a bit, "Well, we shouldn't have trespassed into your territory."
Seeing the atmosphere ease, Lu Jingzhi asked, "Excuse me, where is the desert town?"
The golden-armored scorpion extended its large pincers and pointed to a certain location. "Five hundred miles south of this desert town is a village inhabited by humans."
"Thank you very much."
After Lu Jingzhi's polite exchange, the two left the ancient temple and headed towards the desert town...
Desert town——
A group of men wearing white clothes and white scarves on their heads, holding sharp knives, surrounded Ali's shop.
They all have dark skin, sturdy build, well-defined muscles, and exude a fierce aura.
One of the obese men was particularly eye-catching.
He strode forward with a playful look on his face, a heavy gold chain hanging from his thick beard, as if showing off his wealth and power.
He held a black cigarette between his index and middle fingers, and smoke curled up and filled the air.
He chuckled, his face full of pride and greed, smoking a cigarette and looking at the other person with contempt.
As he grinned, his yellow teeth were exposed, making people feel disgusted. He said viciously, "Boy, your father mortgaged this house to me before he died. It's mine. Be smart and pack your things and move out immediately. Get out!"
"Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"
After saying that, he spat out the cigarette and stomped out the cigarette butt on the ground with his foot, looking very arrogant.
Ali protected his grandmother and the poisoned and injured master and disciple tightly behind him, his chest heaving violently with anger.
His eyes were filled with rage as he glared at the people before him, his voice filled with endless grief and indignation. "It was you who used despicable means to force my father to sign that unequal agreement! You shameless bandits!"
His fists were clenched tightly, as if he was ready to rush up and fight those people to the death at any time.
Ali's father was addicted to gambling and ended up in debt.
In order to make him pay off the last one thousand low-grade spirit stones, the casino owner He Biao actually came up with an agreement to mortgage his house for the price of one thousand low-grade spirit stones.
Ali's father was naturally unwilling to accept the price because it was so ridiculously low. However, he had already fallen into a wolf's den. When he refused to agree, He Biao ordered someone to chop off his hand and force him to press fingerprints on it. Ali's father died of the infection of the wound.
"Humph, what do you mean by forced? Don't slander me."
The lackey behind him echoed, "That's right, it was clearly your father who agreed to sell the house to us for a thousand low-grade spirit stones. Here's the written agreement. Are you still trying to quibble?"
After saying that, he took out the document, which contained not only the agreement but also Ali's father's blood seal.
Grandma Ali stumbled forward, fell to her knees with a thud, tears streaming from her cloudy eyes, "He Biao, I beg you, even as an old man, to let us go."
He Biao stepped forward with a ferocious expression and said viciously, "Let you go. Not only this house, but also the two women inside."
Seeing that they were about to attack Jin Fengxi and Nan Ye, Ali immediately took out a long sword for self-defense from his storage ring and chopped it down at He Biao.
But He Biao didn't even look at him, and the pressure of the three stars in the air came towards him.
With a bang.
Ali flew out backwards and fell on the shelf in the shop, and the ceramic bowls inside shattered to the ground.
"A mere Jindan realm loser dares to attack me?"
"I'm really tired of living."
Jin Fengxi's face was as gloomy as water. She clenched her teeth tightly, held on to the stone wall with trembling hands, and stood up with difficulty.
Every movement seemed so difficult, as if all the strength in the body had been drained.
She raised her head, her eyes as sharp as a knife, staring fiercely at the person in front of her, her eyes flashing with anger and doubt, "How did you know I was poisoned?" The words seemed to be squeezed out from between her teeth, full of repression and anger.
Ever since they were beaten away last time, they never dared to cause trouble again.
But today, they seemed to have received the news that they were too deeply poisoned, and a group of people came again to cause trouble.
"Of course, it was the snake man brother behind me who told me." The person who spoke looked at Jin Fengxi, a sneer on his lips, his eyes full of mockery.
As he finished speaking, the crowd around him automatically dispersed, leaving a narrow passage. Everyone's eyes turned to the end of the passage.
I saw a man with a black tail twisting his body and walking slowly towards me.
His waist swayed flexibly, and each step had a strange rhythm that made people look sideways.
The man's mouth occasionally opened, revealing sharp teeth and a long tongue.
A pair of yellow vertical pupils reveals a cold aura.
"Jinfeng, we meet again."
"Did Medusa send you?"
"Of course, our Queen learned you were here and informed the Black Sand Gang."
