The transmigrated villain wants to escape Feng Aotian's hellish situation.

"May I ask your name, sir?"

"I.."

Yu Lingyue stared intently at Yin Kangxuehan, as if trying to glean some crucial information from her answer.

It just goes to show, he's the protagonist after all; he noticed something was amiss so quickly.

"Her name is Wang Cuihua!"

king?!

Yin Kangxuehan seemed to freeze, staring wide-eyed at Qin Yangjun.

It was as if she was asking why Qin Yangjun had given her such a rustic name.

Qin Yangjun didn't look at her; instead, he turned his head away.

*Pfft*

At this moment, Ling'er, who was standing to the side, finally couldn't help but burst out laughing, and the group of people couldn't help but turn their attention to her.

However, Ling'er adjusted her emotions very quickly, and when the group looked over, she had returned to her previous calm and composed expression.

Noticing Yu Lingyue's gaze, Yin Kangxuehan's lips twitched slightly.

"Yes...yes...my name is Wang Cuihua."

Yu Lingyue's observation skills were incredibly sharp; she even noticed the exchange of glances among the group.

This Wang Cuihua is most likely a fake name, but judging from the situation just now, it's clear that this woman is under the control of the senior brother.

Her concealment of her identity might be intentional on the part of her senior brother. If that's the case, then there's no need for me to delve into the identity of the person in front of me.

"So it's Sister Wang. Let me introduce myself. My name is Yu Lingyue."

Hua Yaoyao, who was standing to the side, quickly spoke up as well.

"I...I'm called Hua Yaoyao!"

"Greetings, ladies."

Yin Kangxuehan lowered her head and smiled, but inwardly she began to curse Qin Yangjun.

You are Wang Cuihua! Your whole family is named Wang Cuihua! It's one thing to be a maid, but to have such a rustic name! I am beautiful enough to be described as stunning, couldn't you have chosen a more pleasant-sounding name!

Seeing Yin Kangxuehan's stiff expression, Qin Yangjun couldn't help but chuckle inwardly. This "Miss Wang Cuihua" might bring him a lot of amusement in the future.

At this moment, Qin Yangjun suddenly heard several whooshing sounds behind him.

Then several figures emitting black smoke suddenly crashed down in front of the group.

Then several voices came.

"Damn, my luck is terrible, I almost got roasted."

"You have the nerve to say that? If you hadn't revealed your presence at the crucial moment, would we have been discovered by that evil flame dragon? Luckily we ran fast, or we would all have ended up as kebabs with you!"

"Stop arguing! It's so annoying!"

A woman's voice broke the argument between the two.

Qin Yangjun looked at the three "coal lumps" not far away with a hint of suspicion.

"Liu...Ruo...Qing?"

Chapter Seventy-Three: The Coal Trio

Qin Yangjun looked at the group and spoke slowly and deliberately. Upon hearing Qin Yangjun's voice, the three of them turned their heads in unison.

Upon seeing Qin Yangjun, a look of surprise appeared in the eyes of the group.

"Qin Yangjun? Why are you here? You clearly..."

Before Xuan Tian could finish speaking, he was sharply tugged at by Situ Ye beside him.

Qin Yangjun narrowed his eyes slightly.

"What do you mean by that?"

These kids, they probably know something, right? He doesn't want his trip to the Blazing Tomb to be exposed.

If this news gets out, it will cause a lot of trouble.

They weren't afraid of Qin Yangjun before, but ever since they saw him kill eight demon kings, they've all felt a growing sense of fear.

In a daze, Qin Yangjun was covered in blood, with a slight smile on his lips, and the corpses of the demon kings were placed beside him.

Therefore, at this moment, Qin Yangjun's gaze exerted immense pressure on the group.

Liu Ruoqing, who was standing to the side, quickly spoke up.

"Here's the thing, we came looking for you, but you weren't there, so we went out to look for you. After searching around, we accidentally ended up in the territory of the demon race. Those demons went crazy for some reason and attacked us whenever they saw us. We barely managed to escape, only to find that you were still in the city lord's mansion. So Xuan Tianyi was very surprised."

Xuan Tianyi, who was standing to the side, quickly took over the conversation.

"Yes, yes, yes! Surprising!"

"Looking for me? What for?"

Qin Yangjun crossed his arms and looked at the group of people. He had a feeling that they were hiding something from him.

"Of course I want to spar with you. We haven't settled our score since we parted three years ago."

Liu Ruoqing said matter-of-factly.

"Yes, me too."

"And I"

Discuss?

Three years ago, his sister did indeed take him to visit the other three major sects.

So he knew these people, and as for the challenge, it was just a fight with Liu Ruoqing.

But Qin Yangjun knew that Liu Ruoqing had given him face and held back then, otherwise it wouldn't have ended in a draw.

However, at that time, he had not yet awakened his memories. When he went to the Beast King Valley to fight Ling Hu'er, he did not hold back and was even a little smug after winning.

Looking back now, it was really naive.

However, Qin Yangjun now believes he is not afraid of any of them.

He wasn't afraid even if all three attacked him at once, but because he had used the Wind and Thunder Pearl, his spiritual power was completely depleted, and he had no intention of fighting these people.

So he refused.

"I'm very tired right now, let's talk about sparring later."

"Okay, we'll talk about it later."

"That's fine."

Xuan Tianyi and Situ Ye readily agreed, because they both knew that Qin Yangjun had just finished a major task and had no energy left to deal with them.

They had indeed considered sparring before, but after witnessing the scene at the Blazing Tomb, all those thoughts vanished completely.

"You...you've broken through to the Nascent Soul stage?"

Liu Ruoqing looked at Qin Yangjun with a somewhat subtle expression.

I heard from the disciples of Yuqian Sect that Qin Yangjun's cultivation was only at the peak of the Golden Core stage, but he broke through to the Nascent Soul stage after going out for a trip. Could it be that... he obtained some other opportunity in the Blazing Flame Tomb?

And what exactly is behind that door?

She was curious, but she was also hesitant to ask.

Because she clearly heard that Qin Yangjun did not want to expose the matter of the Blazing Tomb.

"It was just a chance encounter. I'm tired. Let's talk about it later."

Qin Yangjun had no intention of catching up with them; he still needed to refine the Golden Crow Banner and had no time to waste here.

"Gentlemen, I'll take my leave now. I'll treat you properly when we get back to the Yuqian Sect."

Qin Yangjun bowed and then turned to leave.

He had only taken a few steps when Yin Kangxuehan's voice echoed in Qin Yangjun's mind.

"These three little guys are up to something."

At this time, Qin Yangjun was still branded by Yin Kangxuehan as 'full of bad intentions'.

She was eager to know how he would handle it if he knew that these people in front of her were secretly keeping it from Qin Yangjun.

Would he scheme against his allies?

However, Qin Yangjun seemed completely unconcerned.

"Everyone has secrets, and besides, these three hold quite high positions within the sect."

"I don't care about any of that, but... I'm your maid now, so remember to make things clear with your sister."

"Heh, are you that afraid of my sister?"

Yin Kangxuehan rolled her eyes and did not respond to Qin Yangjun.

As the three figures gradually disappeared from sight, the three "coal miners" breathed a sigh of relief.

Liu Ruoqing immediately broke away from the "group" and ran to ask the attendant next to her where there was a bathing place in the city lord's mansion. Originally, Xuan Tianyi and Situ Ye were also planning to go and wash up.

But soon, their attention was drawn to Yu Lingyue, who was chatting and laughing with Qian Xiaoyu.

Yu Lingyue's beauty was indescribable; she seemed to radiate light, making everything around her appear dim in comparison.

The two had seen many beautiful women, and Liu Ruoqing could be considered a beautiful young woman, but the person in front of them was different from any of the women they had seen before.

That otherworldly quality is not something that ordinary people can possess.

The two then looked at each other.

In an unison, they darted forward and appeared in front of Yu Lingyue.

"Fellow Daoist, I am Xuan Tianyi. May I ask if we can get to know each other?"
