The light of the sword is like the moon reflecting on Kyushu

Chapter 2075 Pale-faced Men
The snow fell heavily, and a thick layer gradually accumulated on the ground.

Inside Guangming Temple, Xiong Mengyan couldn't sit still after hearing the commotion of Feng Jiuxiao and the other two going out, and she immediately wanted to follow them out.

Shiyin and Diewu both wanted to come along, but Xiong Mengyan whispered, "You two should rest. I'm just going to have a drink with them. If you come along," she pointed to the Moon Room next door, "it will alert them!"

Shiyin chuckled softly, "Miss, are you planning to secretly meet your lover?"

Xiong Mengyan laughed and said, "Keep your voice down, don't disturb them!"

"Miss, let Butterfly Dance and I go with you, taking the Magic Harp with us!"

"You two are coming along?"

Shion said coquettishly, "Miss, we're not full either, please take us with you!"

Xiong Mengyan lowered her voice and said, "Okay, okay, let's go!"

Butterfly Dance, holding the magic zither, exchanged a glance with Poetry Sound, their unspoken understanding unspoken!

The two of them went out with Xiong Mengyan not for drinking and eating, but simply to protect her! Even if the young lady had high martial arts skills, she might still encounter accidents, especially here in an unfamiliar place with unseen risks everywhere!
Therefore, the two would rather be scolded by the young lady for being "unruly" and "insensitive" than put her in danger!
Not long after the three of them left the Moon Room in the snow, Wang Sheng, lying on the bed, said, "Miss Xiong has gone out!"

Duanmu Yan said, "I heard you! Shall we go?"

Wang Sheng sat up abruptly. "Of course!"

The two of them left as soon as they said they would.

The two of them shared a room and spoke without any restraint.

In another room, Chang Zijin laughed and said, "Miss Xiong has gone after her."

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, eyes closed and breathing deeply, Yuan Zishan calmly said, "I know."

Chang Zijin laughed and said, "You have a very big heart."

After a moment, she added, "Wang Sheng and the other two also chased after them."

Yuan Zishan's eyes remained closed. "I know."

Chang Zijin asked, "Are you cultivating your inner energy?"

Yuan Zishan replied, "Yes."

Chang Zijin smiled and said, "So, is my questioning you affecting your cultivation?"

Yuan Zishan remained unmoved: "What do you think? You know perfectly well what I'm asking!"

Chili was a little unhappy. "Sister Chang, that's not very kind of you! You know my young lady is practicing, yet you keep interfering!"

Chang Zijin laughed and said, "I thought she was resting with her eyes closed, but I didn't know she was practicing martial arts! I'm so sorry!"

Chili curled her lip and rolled her eyes: "Hypocrite!"

Chang Zijin burst out laughing!
Chili is so adorable! Even when she's angry, she's still cute! Mainly, Chili is straightforward and honest, with no ill intentions; all her emotions are written on her face! She forgets about scolding someone the very next day! That's why she's everyone's source of joy, the group's darling, and no one ever gets angry with Chili!
Chang Zijing looked at Yuan Zishan with a half-smile: "You...aren't you going?"

Yuan Zishan's eyes remained tightly closed: "I'm not going!"

Chang Zijin smiled and said, "Then... shall I go?"

Yuan Zishan finally opened her eyes, remaining calm and composed: "Go then." Then she closed her eyes again.

Chang Zijin was startled!
What's going on? Why is Yuan Zishan so calm? Is she trying to act profound with me?

Chang Zijin said, "Chili, are you coming with me?"

Chili shook her head: "No!"

Chang Zijin smiled and asked, "Did you eat your fill tonight?"

Chili pepper said seriously, "No!"

Chang Zijin smiled and said, "Then I'll take you to eat something delicious?"

Chili shook her head, enunciating each word clearly: "Absolutely not! Going!"

"Then shall I go?"

"just go!"

With a flash of green, Chang Zijing disappeared!
Chili immediately ran to Yuan Zishan's side and said anxiously, "Miss, the backyard is on fire!"

Yuan Zishan was startled and opened her eyes: "What, is there trouble in the backyard?"

Chili frowned: "Your husband is about to be stolen away, and your house is about to be robbed!"

Yuan Zishan smiled calmly: "Ah, this is nothing."

"Are you alright, miss? You can't be careless! Haven't you heard the saying, 'If you can trust a man, pigs can fly'?"

"What kind of scoundrel said that? No, what kind of scoundrel farted? This should be called 'If a man is reliable, a boar can fly!' Why say a sow?"

"Oh, Miss, that's not the point! The point is that very few men are like Liu Xiahui! That Xiong Mengyan is a vixen reincarnated, she specializes in bewitching men!"

"Chili pepper, no matter how alluring Xiong Mengyan is, she can't steal your young master's soul!"

"Why?" Chili was immediately intrigued! She really wanted to know why the young lady was so confident!

Yuan Zishan said quietly, "Because I have confidence!"

Chili was taken aback: "Huh? That's it?"

Because you have confidence, you are confident. What's the logic behind this?

Inside Xuequan Post Station.

Feng Jiuxiao asked, "Did your brother flee all the way here?"

Bigwolf said, "That's right! He knew I was in the East, so he fled all the way here along the Silk Road. He was exhausted and wanted to replenish his strength, otherwise he wouldn't have dared to risk staying here! Now that Hausen is dead, I'm not in a hurry to go back! It's a good opportunity to meet those ten Hausen family zombies!"

Feng Jiuxiao said, "Are your Western zombies very agile?"

Bigwolf said, "Actually, calling the Hausen family zombies isn't quite accurate. Calling them walking corpses doesn't capture their terror, and calling them living corpses is different from the living corpses of the Demonic Cult, because they drink blood! It's precisely because they drink blood that we borrowed the name 'zombie' from your Central Plains Taoist tradition. But unlike your zombies, your zombies have stiff limbs; they can only jump, not walk." Feng Jiuxiao said, "Then while we're at it, tell your brother to hurry up and eat something!"

Bigwolf gestured for Pete to hurry up and eat the meat, then said, “The Hausen family is afraid of sunlight, so my brother used the daytime to run and create distance, but he couldn’t sleep well at night. The three of them took turns keeping watch, and one died the day before yesterday, and another died yesterday. If we hadn’t met them tonight, he would have certainly died too! All we’ve met along the way are ordinary herders who can’t help at all; they’re just free food for the Hausen family to replenish their strength! They have blood to drink and are full of energy, while my brother has been starving and unable to sleep well along the way, and he’s on the verge of collapse!”

Feng Jiuxiao laughed and said, "Good people are always blessed! Isn't it because I ran into you? Come on, let's have a welcome feast for Brother Pete, cheers!"

"Dry!"

"Dry!"

Rustam and others raised their glasses and drank!
Feng Jiuxiao turned to look at Rustam, "I heard that you Persians don't drink alcohol?"

Rustam laughed and said, "Just listen to whatever they say!"

Feng Jiuxiao laughed and said, "Not bad!"

Rustam laughed and said, "If I can't drink, how can I make friends all over the world? And how can my business grow bigger and bigger?"

Feng Jiuxiao said, "You've already achieved fame and success, why do you still need to suffer this pain in person? Couldn't you just tell the servants?"

Rustam said seriously, "Young master, you must be very lucky!"

Feng Jiuxiao asked, "What do you mean?"

Rustam said, "It seems none of your friends have ever betrayed you, right?"

Feng Jiuxiao said, "That's right!"

Pang Shiwu thought to himself: Surely no one would dare to betray my elder brother, who would dare?
Rustam said, “We are businessmen, unlike other business owners who own real businesses. They can stay in one place and sit back and relax as long as they manage their own little plot of land. People will flock to them to do their bidding. But we can’t do that. We don’t have our own foundation! No matter how strong we are, it’s just a castle in the air!”

Feng Jiuxiao said, "Mm."

Rustam chuckled, "Does the young master think I'm just being perfunctory? Heh, to put it bluntly, I dare not entrust this business to anyone else!"

Feng Jiuxiao simply smiled and remained silent. In his view, Rustam was no different from some Central Plains bosses—suspicious, petty, and seeing everyone as a thief! He needed to handle everything personally to feel at ease; otherwise, he couldn't sleep at night!
Rustam said, “I get goods from suppliers and then resell them to customers. To put it bluntly, I earn money for the hard work of moving things. It doesn’t seem to require much skill, but that’s precisely the key point. It’s not difficult to make a deal, but it’s also very easy to fail!”

He paused for a moment, then said, "Think about it, the trade channels I've worked so hard to establish, the connections I've built up with such difficulty—if I were to hand them over to someone else, it would be tantamount to handing over my lifeline to them!"

Feng Jiuxiao thought for a moment, "What you said makes sense. It's not uncommon for subordinates to line their own pockets and embezzle the owner's assets, so we definitely need to be on guard!"

Rustam said, "Their embezzlement in private is a minor matter. What if he offends my major client with his words? Wouldn't that be cutting off my source of income? Cutting off someone's source of income is like killing their parents! So I don't want to face a passive choice one day, where my relatives and friends become my enemies! That's why I'm personally taking action to prevent anyone from having the chance to betray me!"

Feng Jiuxiao clapped his hands a few times, then gave a thumbs up: "Awesome!"

suddenly--

The curtain was lifted, and a stunningly beautiful young woman wearing a white fox fur coat entered! Behind her were two equally beautiful maids!
The girl's every move exuded an irresistible allure that made one's blood boil!

Her eyes darted around, and in an instant, she spotted Feng Jiuxiao. She immediately swayed her slender waist towards him. Her movements were as graceful as a lotus flower swaying in the wind, captivating all the men who stared at her!

To Ling Feng Jiuxiao's surprise, almost everyone in the room was focused on Xiong Mengyan! Weren't they all engrossed in watching the gambling? Weren't they drinking, chatting, and bragging? What, did they suddenly become observant?
The diners wondered to themselves: This woman's maid is holding a guqin, could she be a geisha?
Wu Mazi was overjoyed and drooled, exclaiming, "Damn, she's even more alluring than the boss's wife!"

The men at his table were also stunned, constantly swallowing hard!

"Angkor, this is amazing! It's simply a rare gem!"

"Yes, looks like a musician. Let's take care of her later!"

The group chuckled strangely, unaware that they had already dug their own graves!
Wu Mazi had just had a few more drinks and now felt incredibly powerful! If the Heavenly King was the boss, then he was number two!

"Hey! Beautiful lady, where are you from?" He leered at Xiong Mengyan with a lascivious smile, openly flirting with her!
Xiong Mengyan suddenly turned around!
In an instant, everyone felt a beam of light appear before their eyes, so dazzling that it seemed to dim the entire world!
A beautiful woman turns her head – an absolutely stunning scene!
Pang Shiwu said, "Brother, she's coming after us!"

Feng Jiuxiao said, "So what if they chased us? Why bother with this show of force?"

Xiong Mengyan looked at Wu Mazi and said with a smile, "Was it you who called me just now?"

Wu Mazi grinned lewdly: "It was me calling you! Tell me, how much for one night?"

Shion coldly said, "You're courting death!" and suddenly drew her sword! But she drew it on someone else instead.

A flash of light, and the sword was already sheathed!
A crack appeared between Wu Mazi's eyebrows!
He was puzzled. Why were they all staring at him? Was there something on his face? He instinctively touched it and found it covered in blood! His forehead had actually split open!
That maid's combat strength was definitely around the eighth realm! Some of the restless guys were stunned in place! They never expected that the maid of this alluring girl would be so powerful!
After seeing Wu Mazi's corpse lying motionless on the ground, Xiong Mengyan revealed a contemptuous smile, "Is that all?" She picked up a small stool from the side and placed it next to Feng Jiuxiao, saying to Rustam, "Sir, please move aside."

Excuse me? I'll move aside, and you can sit down.

Rustam was taken aback, but his mind raced and he immediately smiled and said, "Then I'll go back to my table first, so as not to disturb your peace and quiet!"

Feng Jiuxiao frowned: "What do you mean by 'quiet time for two people'? Aren't there two other people here?"

Rustam chuckled: "Pretty much, pretty much."

Xiong Mengyan smiled charmingly and said, "Why are you in such a hurry to leave?" Her voice was soft and sweet, and her breath was as fragrant as orchids. Rustam instantly got goosebumps!
He chuckled and muttered under his breath, "I wasn't in a hurry, but now that you're here, how can I stay?"

Xiong Mengyan smiled seductively and said, "What did you say?"

Rustam immediately smiled apologetically: "It's nothing, it's nothing!"

Suddenly the curtain was lifted, and a group of blond, blue-eyed, fair-skinned, and cold-faced men walked in!

Their faces were pale and bloodless!
Their pupils were even a little red!
Bigwolf's face instantly turned cold!

The air seemed to be getting colder, and a chill swept in, making people shiver!
The shop owner, Hawthorne, greeted him with a smile: "Sir, would you like to have a meal or stay at the shop?"

The tall, burly young man in the lead scanned the area, but not seeing his target, he frowned and said, "Search carefully again! His presence is particularly strong in this area; he couldn't have escaped too far!"

"Yes!" A dozen blond men immediately dispersed and began searching the store!
The reason they didn't notice Feng Jiuxiao and Pete's presence was because Feng Jiuxiao used a glass barrier to block their senses!

Even if they were all gathered around Feng Jiuxiao at this moment, they would never have imagined that there was a living person hiding right under their noses!
Pang Shiwu said, "I'll lead them outside in a bit to avoid harming innocent people!"

Feng Jiuxiao said, "Not bad, you know how to consider others now."

Pang Shiwu laughed and said, "Isn't this what I learned from you?"

Suddenly, a burly man shouted angrily, "What are you trying to do?"

Standing opposite him was a pale-faced, blond-haired, blue-eyed man!
