Before the Empress Goes Dark, Adopt Her as a Villain

Chapter 269 Brothers Playing with Fire

Seeing Ning Wuxie's reaction, Yuan Jing was even happier. He said a few more polite words and then turned back to the cabin.

It seemed that he had completely ruled out the suspicion that Ning Wuxie would interfere with him, and even regarded him as a potential ally. He didn't pay much attention to the two brothers from the Different Fire Tower.

The brothers saw the withdrawal of the Alchemist Association, breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Ning Wuxie and Xuan'er, and walked over carefully.

"Thank you for saving me, senior," the brother who had always been hot-tempered bowed and said, "Lord Ning? I have never heard of a great man like you in Confucianism."

"It's normal. I joined Confucianism not long ago." Ning Wuxie waved his hand and said, "What's the situation with you?"

The brothers from the Different Fire Tower obviously have a low level of cultivation, that is, the Golden Core, but for a sect like the Different Fire Tower that tends to be a side sect, the gold content of the Golden Core is much less than that of other major sects. Naturally, they can't defeat the bearded man who had a large number of people just now.

Of course, this lack of combat power is often compensated in another way.

At present, Dan Tower has become a treacherous place. Many people on the deck have ulterior motives, not to mention other people who have rushed there from all over the continent.

Two golden elixirs are not good enough, and they are too dangerous.

"We are fire-cutter disciples from the Yihuo Tower. My name is Ye Liang, and his name is Ye Yong. Seniors should have seen that we are twin brothers."

The people of Yihuo Tower call themselves fire-cutter disciples, which may be related to their practice methods.

Ye Liang is indeed the elder brother, no wonder he is always tough and always stands in front. In contrast, Ye Yong is too timid, his eyebrows are always bitter, revealing aggrieved spirit, like a little girl.

"What are you doing in Danta?" Ning Wuxie asked. Before he finished speaking, he saw Ye Liang take a deep breath and tried to explain. He pointed his finger and added, "Don't say you are going to Dayu to do something. I'm not stupid."

Ye Liang choked up, thought about it, and gave up the idea of ​​​​muddling through: "Since you know, why are you asking?"

"What is the Yihuo Tower thinking? Send two Jindan to rob the corpse of the beast? There are real powerful people in the Alchemist Association. The vanguards they sent can subdue you. What are you going to do?"

Ye Yong lowered his head, as if Ning Wuxie's words touched his heart, with a fearful and tangled expression. Ye Liang in front of him pouted and muttered, "...This is the plan in the sect..."

"Oh? Yihuo Tower has a plan? What plan?" Ning Wuxie immediately became interested.

Ye Liang's eyes lit up: "...Senior promised to help us, we will tell you."

"We just saved your lives, don't we deserve thanks?" Xuan'er frowned.

"...But this plan is more important than our lives, so we can't use it to thank them."

Ning Wuxie narrowed his eyes slightly. The Fire Tower actually had a plan. Could it be that these two people were just here to explore the way?

"Forget it, I'm not interested in knowing." Ning Wuxie said, and was about to turn around and end the conversation.

At this moment, Ye Yong, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke: "Senior!"

Ye Liang and Ning Wuxie Xuan'er were both shocked. They didn't expect that this kid would dare to speak. Ye Yong took out a flame-shaped token from the storage ring. It was pitch black and flowing with colorful brilliance, and handed it to Ning Wuxie.

"Senior, give it to me."

Sure enough, even if Ye Yong spoke, he was still a social phobia. He said give and then fell silent.

Ning Wuxie hadn't reacted to what it was, but he saw Ye Liang's eyes widened, and he looked at Ye Yong in astonishment: "Brother, what are you doing?!"

His expression seemed to be very regretful and he couldn't bear to part with the token, but he looked at Ning Wuxie and Ye Yong, and didn't dare to reach out to take it back, so he could only grit his teeth and suck in cold air with heartache.

"What is this?" Ning Wuxie asked.

When Ning Wuxie saw it, Ye Yong suddenly became a little nervous, shrank his neck, swallowed his saliva and said: "This is... a token, for, for a friend..."

His voice became smaller and smaller, and it was unclear, and Ning Wuxie basically didn't understand a few words.

Ye Liang on the side couldn't help but say: "This is the Sky Fire Token, you can go to the Strange Fire Tower to claim the reward after you take it."

He stared at the token in Ning Wuxie's hand, looking reluctant to part with it.

Ning Wuxie looked at the Sky Fire Token in his hand in surprise. It did feel burning when he touched it, but it quickly cooled down and returned to normal temperature. Except for the colorful burning light in the dark, there was nothing magical about it.

"What reward will the Fire Tower give me?" he asked.

Fire Tower is a small sect after all, Ning Wuxie doesn't think they will give any particularly good rewards.

"It depends on how Lord Yandi decides." Ye Liang shrugged.

Ning Wuxie smiled and shook his head. Although Ye Liang and Ye Yong are twins, their personalities are indeed extremely opposite.

Ye Yong is gentle and timid, and can't speak clearly. Seeing that he helped them, he took the initiative to give them the Heavenly Fire Order as a reward. Ye Liang is a mess. He didn't let go even when he was surrounded by people from the Alchemist Association. Now he doesn't feel panic or nervous when dealing with Ning Wuxie, as if there is nothing to be ashamed or grateful for.

"Okay, thank you." He imitated Ye Liang's tone, put the Heavenly Fire Order into the storage ring, and winked at the young man.

"You're welcome." Ye Liang raised his chin towards him, and said in a cool and neat manner, "So, senior, are you really not going to cooperate with us? We brothers are really not as bad as you think."

"Both the Alchemist Association and the Alien Fire Tower want me to cooperate, who should I help?"

"Of course, you help whoever gives you more." Ye Liang curled his lips.

"That's right, can your Alien Fire Tower give me more than the Alchemist Association?" Ning Wuxie looked at him with a playful look.

“…” Ye Liang was silent, looked up at Ning Wuxie, and hesitated to speak.

“I don’t know, senior, have you forgotten what I said?” Ye Liang was surprisingly scared, and then he led Ye Yong back to the cabin.

Ning Wuxie smiled at the contrasting combination of the Fire Tower, turned around and no longer took it to heart.

With their low cultivation, if they really want to compete for the corpse of the beast, they have no chance. I hope they don’t have this intention, or they are just investigating the situation with the Fire Tower.

The information that the mythical world is coming seems to have become an open secret. All sects have begun to prepare. The big sects hope to strengthen their strength to meet the turmoil, and the small sects hope to turn over in this muddy water.

Ning Wuxie looked at Xuan’er beside him. As the culprit of all this, she leaned quietly in his arms, with her head on his shoulder, as if nothing in the outside world could interfere or hurt her.
