Chapter 162 The Sudden Appearance of the Man in Black
"Mr. Wu, this is the Seven-Star Chain Grass. Because of the characteristics of this thing, it can only be brought along with the surrounding soil."
"These two are members of the Thunder Mercenary Group who escorted this thing."
After hearing this, Li Jiuqing's eyes quickly fell from the Seven-Star Chain Grass to the two people. Then Li Jiuqing stepped forward, bowed to the two people and smiled, "I have heard of the reputation of the Thunder Mercenary Group for a long time. It is better to meet them today..."
"Where are the spirit stones?"
The two people from the Thunder Mercenary Group did not talk to Li Jiuqing at all. They looked directly at the maid of the Tianhai Chamber of Commerce and asked for spirit stones.
"Here, the Chamber of Commerce will take 20,000 spirit stones, and the remaining total is 180,000 spirit stones."
The storage bag given by the maid was exactly what Li Jiuqing had tampered with.
What surprised Li Jiuqing was that after the two people took the storage bag and took a look to confirm that the number was correct, they actually threw away the problematic storage bag directly.
Then he took out the spirit stone and put it in his storage bag, and then strode away. He didn't even look at Li Jiuqing when he passed by.
Li Jiuqing narrowed his eyes slightly, and a barely perceptible gleam flashed in his eyes.
"Mr. Wu, please don't be so polite. The Tianlei Mercenary Group has a special style of doing things and is rather indifferent to strangers." The maid looked at Li Jiuqing's face and said.
"Hehe, it's okay, it's okay."
Li Jiuqing waved his hand and smiled, and then focused on the Seven Star Chain Grass. Because of the Bodhi Liquid, Li Jiuqing needed to refine the Star Dou Kui Dan within half a month, otherwise his spirit stone would be wasted.
"Mr. Wu, your things have been delivered. I wonder if Mr. Wu needs other items. My Sihai Chamber of Commerce has everything. As long as there are enough spirit stones, it can almost meet Mr. Wu's needs."
"Hehe."
"Okay, let's do it together. Prepare some Frost Jade Dew, Panlong Gold Stone, and Tiankui Wood for me. I need about two kilograms of each of these materials."
"Calculate how many spirit stones are needed."
As Li Jiuqing finished speaking, the maid immediately responded with a smile, "These things are common treasures, and a total of 93,000 spirit stones are needed."
"Oh?"
"Are you so sure? I just said it. Don't you need to check the price?"
Looking at the maid with a confident smile, Li Jiuqing said with some surprise. Of course, he was not surprised by the maid's performance, but was surprised at who was managing the Sihai Chamber of Commerce that could train such a maid.
"No, please rest assured, Mr. Wu, the price I quoted will never be wrong." The maid's confident means.
"Hehe."
"Okay, then prepare it for me."
Li Jiuqing said.
At this time, the maid wrote down Li Jiuqing's request and said, "Do you need to provide an alchemy room for Mr. Wu? Mr. Wu spent nearly 500,000 spirit stones in my Sihai Chamber of Commerce, and I can provide you with an alchemy room for free."
According to the materials Li Jiuqing needed, the maid quickly guessed that Li Jiuqing was preparing to make an elixir.
"No, just bring me the materials."
Li Jiuqing looked at the maid and said in a slightly cold tone.
After all, no one likes to be speculated, especially the maid in front of him. Although she is thinking about you everywhere, she still gives people a feeling of being calculated.
"Yes."
The maid still smiled when she saw this, and then quickly brought what Li Jiuqing wanted.
...
Evening.
When Li Jiuqing left the Sihai Chamber of Commerce, it was already close to the hour of Hai.
The night was dark and windy.
The whole Yueyang City lost the hustle and bustle of the day, and only a few lights swayed in the cold wind.
Li Jiuqing walked on the empty street, his figure seemed particularly lonely under the weak moonlight.
"Huh~"
A gust of night wind blew by, making Li Jiuqing feel very relaxed. He was different from others. As an evil cultivator, Li Jiuqing liked this dark environment. The more lonely, the more secure Li Jiuqing felt.
"What a pity, there are always some spoilers."
Li Jiuqing murmured, and his small voice echoed in the quiet street, which seemed a bit abrupt.
Soon, Li Jiuqing quickened his pace, passed through narrow alleys, and finally passed through the north alley and left the city from the north gate of Yueyang City.
After leaving Yueyang City, Li Jiuqing did not fly on the sword, but just quickened his pace a little, and stopped after arriving at a small valley.
"It's about here."
While speaking, Li Jiuqing nodded with satisfaction, and then snapped his fingers.
"Pah~"
A large piece of flame floated in the air, dispelling the darkness, and in the moment when the darkness retreated.
Four foundation-building monks in black clothes and wearing ghost masks came to a position less than one meter behind Li Jiuqing, holding short spears and sickles.
They were like evil ghosts that suddenly appeared in horror movies.
Two of the four people were in the air, and two were lying on the ground. The two sickles in the air had been thrown out of their hands and shot directly at Li Jiuqing's position.
But at this critical moment, the weak snap of the fingers instantly burst out with a powerful force, pushing the four late-stage foundation-building assassins back dozens of meters away.
"Boom~"
"Hua La La~~"
Then, with Li Jiuqing as the center, the crisp sound of the chain was particularly eye-catching in the dark night.
I saw that the silver seven-star chain was like a spirit snake surrounding Li Jiuqing.
Just now, two black-clad assassins had their chest skin cut by the front end of the black chain. If they were a little slower, they would have been pierced through the chest by the seven-star chain.
"Very sharp speed."
"Which group are you from?"
At first, Li Jiuqing thought that the four black-clad assassins were from the Sun family, but after seeing their reaction and neat retreat, Li Jiuqing gave up this idea.
If the Sun family had this ability, how could they still be suppressed by the Xiao family? These four were four late-stage foundation-building cultivators.
Moreover, the only purpose of these four people since they appeared was to kill Li Jiuqing. They didn't even say a word. It didn't seem like the Sun family cultivators came to find trouble.
"Kill!"
"Four Extreme Shadow Instants!!"
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh~"
The four assassins looked at each other, and their figures instantly disappeared from the spot. They appeared again in front of, behind, and around Li Jiuqing.
"Poison Slash!"
"Frost Spike!"
"Hell Hook Scythe!"
"Yellow Spring Swamp!"
Four attacks came at the same time.
The Frost Spike turned into ice when it hit the ground, instantly trapping Li Jiuqing's movements.
Poison Slash turned into a moon blade and went straight to Li Jiuqing's head, while Hell Hook Scythe went to Li Jiuqing's scapula and hooked at his scapula. Finally, Yellow Spring Swamp turned the land under Li Jiuqing's feet into a swamp and completely blocked Li Jiuqing's retreat.
These four attacks seemed to be random and random, but each attack contained powerful power and very precise strikes, as if to tear Li Jiuqing apart.
