Since the sky was covered, the heavens began to show their holiness

"A glass of rum."

Sarah's red lips opened slightly, like a blooming rose, with unspeakable temptation. She casually threw a silver coin, which drew a beautiful arc in the air and landed steadily on the bar with a crisp sound. Under the light, her eyes were like the deep sea, with endless stories hidden in the flowing waves. The tight leather coat showed her perfect curves, and the double guns on her waist were shining with a cold luster, showing her heroic posture.

This scene made everyone in the tavern stunned, and the restlessness that had been suppressed because of Zhou Xian rose again. A gleam of fiery light flashed in the men's eyes, like a hungry wolf seeing its prey, staring straight at Sarah. Some licked their lips, their Adam's apples rolling up and down; some unconsciously straightened their backs, trying to show their heroic posture.

The women cast jealous glances at Sarah, secretly sizing her up and down, whispering something. The atmosphere in the entire pub suddenly became subtle, as if an invisible hormone scent permeated the air.

However, when their eyes fell on the two uniquely shaped, coldly shining double guns on Sarah's waist, their restless hearts instantly cooled down again as if they had fallen into an ice cellar. The patterns on the gun body and the cold light of the gun barrel seemed to be silently telling of the bloody killings in the past.

Some people's eyes suddenly shrank, and their faces showed fear. After secretly looking at each other, they stood up on tiptoe, as if they were afraid of disturbing some beast, and sneaked out of the tavern. After all, in this mixed port of Bilgewater, who doesn't know Sarah, the famous bounty hunter? There are at least 800 desperate people who died under her precise shooting skills, and no one wants to be the next dead soul and become a victim of her double guns.

Sarah ignored the reactions of the people around her, her beautiful eyes lowered slightly, her slender hands grasped the stem of the wine glass, shook it gently, and then walked towards Zhou Xian with lotus steps. She sat down beside Zhou Xian gracefully, the faint scent of perfume mixed with the aroma of wine lingering around. Sarah took a sip of wine, turned her head to look at Zhou Xian, a faint arc appeared at the corner of her lips, and said in a charming voice: "I didn't expect to meet you here."

Zhou Xian just nodded slightly, his dark eyes were calm. He raised his eyes from the wine glass, briefly met Sarah's eyes, and then moved away, as if the radiant beauty in front of him was just an ordinary decoration in the tavern. He picked up the wine glass and took a sip. The spiciness of the rum spread in his throat, but it did not change his expression at all. He continued to immerse himself in his own world, ignoring Sarah's existence.

Sarah gently turned the wine glass in her hand, and the amber wine left traces on the wall of the glass. She tilted her head slightly and stared at Zhou Xian with interest, with a glimmer of inquiry in her eyes. Although Zhou Xian's attitude was cold, she did not retreat. Instead, she moved closer, lowered her voice, and asked with a hint of mystery and curiosity: "Are you the legendary wizard?"

There was a firmness in her tone, as if she was certain that this ordinary-looking boy in front of her had an extraordinary identity. Her charming voice was particularly clear in the noisy bar.

Suddenly, there was silence in the tavern, and then everyone gasped and whispers broke out one after another.

"Mage? Is that true?"

"That's a very mysterious group. I heard they can call the wind and rain and control the power of elements!"

"My goodness, if it's true, then this brat is not to be messed with."

All eyes were focused on Zhou Xian again, their eyes full of shock and fear. In this chaotic Bilgewater port, they had seen fierce pirates and powerful bounty hunters, but the existence of mages with extraordinary abilities was too distant and intimidating to them, as if Zhou Xian was shrouded in a mysterious mist, making people dare not approach easily. "I guess so."

Zhou Xian took a sip of wine, his Adam's apple rolled slightly, and the overflowing wine slid down his chin and disappeared into his collar in an instant. He half-closed his eyes, looking lazy, as if this shocking identity was just a trivial matter. Although he knew in his heart that the magic he learned was different from the magic system of this world, the principles of manipulating the elements of heaven and earth were the same. He turned the wine glass carelessly, and the candlelight jumped on the wine, reflecting his face flickering. His indifferent appearance made the people around him even more shocked.

Sarah's eyes lit up when she got the answer, and her eyes were full of calculation and expectation. Without saying a word, she took out a bag of gold coins from the leather bag on her waist and poured them on the bar in front of Zhou Xian with a "clatter". The gold coins collided with each other, making a crisp and pleasant sound. Sarah licked her red lips lightly, staring at Zhou Xian: "You seem to be in great need of money, I want to ask you to do me a favor."

The attention of the people around was also attracted by the bag of gold coins. Many of them showed greed in their eyes, and at the same time they were full of curiosity about what Sarah wanted to entrust. Sarah was a famous bounty hunter in Bilgewater. She had always been entrusted with tasks by others, but now she was asking for help. It was probably not an ordinary small matter.

Zhou Xian's gaze briefly lingered on the bulging purse, and a trace of thought flashed across his eyes. After a while, he raised his eyes to look at Sarah, his eyes calm and dark, and his eyes were bottomless: "What's the matter?"

His voice was neither hurried nor slow, but it was clearly audible in the noisy tavern. The surrounding noise seemed to be isolated, and at this moment he was only focused on the commission that Sarah was about to say. Everyone in the tavern also pricked up their ears, curious about what this mysterious deal was.

"Help me kill Gangplank."

Sarah uttered these words word by word, with a cold light flashing in her eyes, like a sharp blade being unsheathed. As the words fell, a chill instantly spread, and the temperature of the entire tavern seemed to drop suddenly, and the air around them froze.

Everyone's breathing stagnated, and their faces showed fear. The whispering stopped instantly. Gangplank was the feared pirate leader of Bilgewater Port, controlling a huge force. Sarah actually wanted to find someone to kill him. This was a shocking gamble.

"Not interested in."

Zhou Xian curled his lips, his face full of indifference, his lack of interest as if Sarah was not talking about assassinating the notorious Gangplank, but a trivial matter. In his opinion, although Gangplank was extremely powerful in Biljiwo, he was just a mortal after all. He turned the wine glass in his hand, his eyes were indifferent, and he no longer had any attachment to the bag of gold coins, as if these material possessions were far less important than his own wishes, and he did not take Sarah's commission to heart at all.
