Volume 1: The Beauty of Misfortune Chapter 40: Blood-Stained Jasmine (Part 2)
There are not many shops on the streets of Qinglin Town, but they can be said to have everything you need. Yun Che frowned, quickened his pace, and soon turned into a drugstore on the right.
"Boss, do you have purple marigolds and iron sand vines?" Yun Che said directly after entering the drugstore, and quickly glanced at the drugstore.
The drugstore owner was a middle-aged man who looked listless. The two medicinal herbs Yun Che wanted were both common and ordinary medicinal herbs. Purple marigolds can dispel wind and cold, and iron sand vines can be used to refine the lowest-grade Huixuan Pills. They can be found everywhere and the price is very cheap. He replied weakly: "Yes, how much do you want?"
"Half a catty of each!" Yun Che said quickly.
The boss wrapped the medicine and threw it to him: "A total of twenty yellow Xuan coins."
[Note: There are three types of circulating currencies in Tianxuan Continent, namely yellow Xuan coins, green Xuan coins, and purple Xuan coins. 1 purple Xuan coin = 100 green Xuan coins = 10,000 yellow Xuan coins. Reference for the value of Xuanbi: The annual income of an ordinary family in Tianxuan Continent is about 30,000 yellow Xuanbi, which is 3 purple coins. 】
Putting the Xuanbi on the counter, Yun Che walked away quickly. Then he walked straight to the southern exit of the town without stopping.
And Xiao Ba had also discovered his figure, but he was not in a hurry to take action, and followed him expressionlessly.
The exit of Qinglin Town soon appeared in front. From Qinglin Town to the south, there will be an endless mountain range called the Red Dragon Mountain Range. There are all kinds of Xuan beasts living in it, which is very dangerous. Even the powerful Xuanists or mercenary groups in Qinglin Town dare only move at the outermost edge of the mountain range. Once they go deep, they will encounter more advanced Xuan beasts, often with a narrow escape. And the reason why this mountain range is called the Red Dragon Mountain Range is that it is said that in the center of this mountain range, there lives a huge fire dragon that can spray scorching flames, hence the name.
But it is just a legend, and no one has ever really seen it. As the supreme beast of the mysterious beasts, even the lowest dragon has terrifying power. Even if it really exists, people who can see it will not be able to come back alive.
When he stepped into the area of the Red Dragon Mountain Range, Yun Che took a deep breath slowly, held the two packets of medicine he had just bought from the pharmacy in his right hand, and covered them with his left hand. The Sky Poison Pearl flashed... Suddenly, large pieces of debris fell from his hands. When Yun Che took his left hand away, there was only a small pile of purple-black powder in his palm.
The purple flower is not toxic, and the iron sand vine is not toxic. Taking them together will not cause any toxic reactions. Even if they are poisonous, the effect of ordinary poisons is minimal or even completely ineffective for the strong who have reached the spiritual realm.
However, the powder formed by the extraction and fusion of certain components contained in the purple flower and the iron sand vine has an extremely strong stimulating effect on the eyes. If it is touched to the eyeball, even if the mysterious power is strong, it will cause blindness for a certain period of time.
Holding the small handful of powder in his hand, Yun Che slowly turned around and looked at Xiao Ba, who appeared less than ten steps behind him like a ghost.
Xiao Ba was slightly surprised that Yun Che had discovered him. He looked down on Yun Che and said coldly: "Your name is Xiao Che, right? The waste who was kicked out of the Xiao Clan!"
"No, Yun Che!" Yun Che looked at him calmly, with no fear on his face.
"Hmph!" Xiao Ba was obviously not interested in what he called, and had no reaction to his overly calm attitude, because a super waste with disabled Xuanmai did not need him to think too much: "I will send you to see the King of Hell by the order of the young master. In your next life, remember not to provoke people you can't afford to offend!"
After the voice fell, Xiao Ba had a shining short blade in his hand, and then he swung his right hand, and the short blade flew straight to Yun Che with a sharp sound of breaking through the air... Xiao Kuangyun asked him to cripple Yun Che's face and tongue, but he obviously didn't have the patience to waste so many movements and time on a complete waste, and he didn't even bother to touch his body, and directly flew out with a blade, going straight to his throat.
When Xiao Ba suddenly took out the short blade, Yun Che's brows moved suddenly, and when Xiao Ba swung his right hand, he was finally shocked in his heart... He had prepared to deal with Xiao Ba rushing over to hit him hard, but he didn't expect that this person from the Xiao Sect, who was at least in the Lingxuan Realm, would actually use weapons to deal with a scum like him! And he used a flying knife to shoot him!
With his extremely low profound power, how could he avoid the flying knife of a powerful person in the Spiritual Profound Realm?
Is Xiao Ba's temperament twisted? He doesn't play cards according to normal people's thinking! Killing a person without profound power like me and using weapons, aren't you afraid of being embarrassed if you tell others about it... Yun Che cursed helplessly in his heart, and the cold light in his pupils approached rapidly. His consciousness made him react to avoid it at the first time, but his slow body couldn't avoid it at all...
Just when Yun Che's throat was about to be pierced by the flying knife, a lightning-like red shadow suddenly shot out from Yun Che's body and shot towards Xiao Ba...
Hiss~~~~~~~
The short blade did not hit Yun Che's throat, and even his pupils had no trace of the short blade at all, and behind Xiao Ba, there was a small and exquisite figure. She had her back to Yun Che, wearing a white dress, with her legs and feet as white as jade, and her red hair was scattered to her waist, which was extremely charming.
And in her right hand, she was clearly holding the short blade that Xiao Ba had shot out earlier!
This girl... her clothes, and her red hair... could it be...
Xiao Ba still maintained the posture of throwing the short blade, and the whole person froze there. In the dead silence, he did not look back, and even his expression and body movements did not change at all, as if frozen in time. The only change was that his pupils shrank to the size of a pinhole, as if he saw the most terrifying scene in the world at that moment...
A cool breeze blew slowly at this time, and Xiao Ba's upright body suddenly collapsed in the breeze... That's right! It collapsed, like a pile of building blocks, collapsing piece by piece, turning into a pile of blood and countless tiny corpses.
The wind blew on Yun Che's face, bringing a pungent smell of blood. He froze there, looking at the back of the red-haired girl in front of him, his pupils shrank violently, his breathing was completely held, and even his heartbeat almost stopped completely.
Her clothes and red hair told him that this was clearly the girl he met in the back mountain that night and brought to the Sky Poison Pearl. After entering the Sky Poison Pearl, she had been in a coma... But now, she woke up and walked out of the Sky Poison Pearl by herself, and let him see the most terrifying scene in this Tianxuan Continent so far...
In that moment just now, the girl clearly grabbed the short blade that was about to pierce his throat, and then rushed towards Xiao Ba and killed him... During the whole process, only a flash of red light could be seen, and it was only a very short moment... Xiao Ba's body was completely shattered, and to shatter to this extent, at least hundreds of cuts had to be made on his body...
In other words, in that moment just now, the girl not only took the short blade that almost killed him, but also used this short blade to cut at least hundreds of cuts on Xiao Ba's body! !
This... is this the ability of a little girl?
No! Is this the realm that a "human" can reach! !
Dang!
"Um..."
In Yun Che's extreme shock, the short blade in the girl's hand suddenly fell to the ground, and she let out a painful groan like a small animal. Then, she slowly squatted on the ground, her petite body trembling slightly, as if bathing in the cold wind...
"This damn God-killing Absolute Death Poison... This princess only used such a small amount of power... It actually... backfired to... this extent... Um..."
The girl's voice was very weak and painful, as if she was enduring great torture. Yun Che took two tentative steps forward, and every time his eyes touched the pool of blood, his heart would feel cold... Who is this girl with red hair! Xiao Ba is from the Xiao Sect, and his strength is at least in the low-level Lingxuan Realm! Looking at the entire Floating Cloud City, almost no one can defeat him, but he was killed instantly by this girl!
This girl looks only twelve or thirteen years old! For a girl of this age, it is already quite proud to be able to reach the third level of the Initial Profound Realm. Xia Qingyue reached the tenth level of the Initial Profound Realm at the age of sixteen and was already recognized as the city's number one genius. This girl... this girl...
After returning to the Tianxuan Continent, Yun Che felt a real sense of horror for the first time in his heart. Because the scene he saw before him was completely beyond his cognition... the cognition of two whole lifetimes!
Yun Che took a deep breath, tried to calm down, gritted his teeth, and finally said: "Little sister, are you... awake?"
Hearing Yun Che's voice, the girl's slight trembling stopped. She slowly stood up, turned around, and revealed her delicate doll-like face. However, this face, although immature, was so beautiful that it was unbelievable. At this time, she was in obvious pain. She looked at Yun Che with a green and cold voice: "It's incredible. The Sky Poison Pearl actually recognized a useless mortal like you as its master! Has the spirituality of this Xuantian treasure been distorted?"
Strictly speaking, this was the first time Yun Che really faced her. Although he had visited her many times in the Sky Poison Pearl every day these days, when he looked at her again at this time, Yun Che still felt that he couldn't look away. Because this girl was so beautiful, so beautiful that she could seduce the soul. Every part of her snowy face was exquisite and perfect, and it was the kind of perfection that reached the extreme and could not be described.
Her eyes were as crystal clear as black gemstones, and as deep as the night sky. From her eyes, Yun Che saw a kind of pride... But this kind of pride was definitely not the kind of arrogance and arrogance that Xiao Kuangyun had, but a kind of nobility and pride that came from the soul, as if all the spirits in the world were ants in her eyes, and all things in the world were as small as dust in her eyes.
………………………………
Qinglin Town, in the tavern.
The wine and food were served, but Xiao Ba still didn't come back.
Xiao Kuangyun began to get impatient and snorted coldly: "I actually wasted so much time dealing with a waste. Humph, could it be that he got lost in this strange place? Xiao Jiu, go and have a look!"
"Yes, young master!" Xiao Jiu took the order, immediately got up, walked out of the tavern, and went in the direction that Xiao Ba had chased before.
