Lack of talent? I'll buy a year's worth of cultivation for one dollar!

But it's perfect as cover.

Su Yu looked at Bai Zhi kneeling on the ground.

He nodded slightly.

"Can."

The voice was calm and even, without the slightest ripple.

Bai Zhi suddenly raised her head, her eyes filled with ecstasy and disbelief.

You agreed?

This mysterious and powerful figure actually agreed so easily?!

"Thank you so much, senior!"

Bai Zhi was so moved that she kowtowed again.

"Senior, what use do you need angelica for?"

Su Yu straightened his tattered clothes.

His tone remained flat.

"I don't need you to be my slave."

"The only thing I need is intelligence."

"Various intelligence."

He looked at Bai Zhi.

"Since your White Fox lineage is active around Sirius City..."

"They should have their own information channels."

"I need you to gather information about the movements of the Myriad Spirits Demon Abyss."

"Nothing is too small or too big."

Bai Zhi was stunned for a moment.

That's it?

Just intelligence?

For a demon who has been struggling at the bottom of society, this is an extremely simple matter.

"Don't worry, senior!"

Bai Zhi agreed without hesitation.

"Although the White Fox lineage has declined, their ability to gather information is still among the best in the area around the Crimson Gold Sand Sea!"

"I will certainly live up to the expectations placed upon me by my predecessors!"

Su Yu nodded slightly.

No further words were said.

But in his heart, he was calmly making calculations.

What we need most are materials to break through to the Hongmeng Realm.

Of course, these things cannot be said directly now.

Take it easy.

Heal your injuries first, then make plans.

Let's set off.

Su Yu uttered three words calmly.

He turned around and sat back down in the dimly lit carriage.

The carriage curtain fell.

It cut off all outside sight.

Outside the carriage.

Bai Zhi stood up.

She took a deep breath, and the composure befitting a young lady from a wealthy family returned to her cool and aloof face.

She turned her head and looked at Bai Yan and the others who were still in a daze.

"What are you still standing there for?"

"Clean up the mess."

"Continue to Sirius City."

Bai Yan suddenly realized what was happening and quickly directed his guards to clean up the battlefield.

This time.

No one dared to show any disrespect to that dilapidated carriage anymore.

Everyone instinctively slowed their pace and didn't even dare to breathe loudly when passing the carriage.

The convoy once again traveled through the crimson sands.

Just this once.

The atmosphere in the convoy underwent a dramatic change.

Despair was dispelled.

Instead, there was a sense of awe, and a glimmer of secret hope.

Inside the train carriage.

Su Yu closed his eyes.

His breathing remained steady and long as the carriage swayed.

The Primordial Chaos Creation System continues to operate.

He forcibly extracted and purified the turbid spiritual energy unique to the Demon Abyss, and integrated it into the dilapidated Star Abyss Cave.

The injury is slowly but steadily healing.

Sirius City.

Su Yu silently uttered the name in his heart.

The edge of the Demon Abyss of Ten Thousand Spirits.

Let's start here.

……

The sandstorm gradually subsided.

At the edge of the Crimson Gold Sand Sea, a massive city entirely constructed of pitch-black obsidian, like an ancient behemoth lurking in the wasteland, gently reveals its ferocious outline.

Sirius City.

On the edge of the Demon Abyss of Ten Thousand Spirits, in the territory of the Black Flame Wolf Clan.

The dilapidated carriage of the White Fox lineage was forced to stop three miles in front of the city gate.

"Whoa—"

Commander Bai Yan tightened the reins, his brow furrowed.

In front.

A troop of wolf riders clad in dark red heavy armor formed a solid black iron wall, blocking their path perfectly.

A somber atmosphere.

Icy.

The leader was riding a huge unicorn sand wolf.

He was wiry and lean, with a dark red wolf stripe that stretched from the corner of his left eye down to his neck.

The realm of microscopic dust, the pinnacle.

The young master of Tianlang City, and a confidant of Lang Shaoxuan.

Wolf Slaughter.

"Uncle Baiyan, what's wrong?"

Bai Zhi's clear, cool voice emanated calmly from inside the carriage.

Bai Yan dismounted, gripped the hilt of his sword tightly, and spoke in a low voice.

"Miss, you are from the Black Flame Wolf Clan."

"Wolf Butcher personally led the team and blocked the city gate."

The carriage curtain was lifted.

Bai Zhi, dressed in a simple white dress, stepped gracefully down from the carriage.

Her face still showed signs of fatigue from the long journey, but there was no panic in her clear, cool eyes.

Calm and composed.

restraint.

She knew she was there for a marriage alliance, to ask for a favor.

But she also knew that it was precisely at times like these that she couldn't show any cowardice.

"Wolf Butcher Commander"

Bai Zhi nodded slightly, her tone calm, neither flattering nor arrogant.

"I would be grateful if you could personally come out of the city to greet me."

Wolf Butcher sat on the wolf's back, looking down at Bai Zhi.

They did not dismount.

They didn't even offer the most basic greeting from the demon race.

He merely twitched the corners of his mouth, revealing a cold, fake smile.

"Miss Bai Zhi."

"Young Master was overjoyed to learn of your arrival today."

"We are here on special orders."

Wolf Butcher slightly flipped his wrist, and a black token engraved with the Black Flame Wolf Clan totem rotated smoothly at his fingertips.

"but."

"The young master has given the order."

Wolf Butcher's fake smile vanished, replaced by an undeniable coldness.

"Tianlang City is under martial law recently. No unauthorized personnel are allowed to enter."

"Miss Baizhi, you may enter the city."

"But those guards behind you, and all that scum."

He casually pointed at Bai Yan and the others with the token in his hand.

"Leave them all outside the city."

"Go stay in the refugee camp outside the city."

This statement came out.

The guards of the White Fox lineage instantly turned extremely ugly.

Bai Yan took a sudden step forward, the veins on the back of his hand bulging.

"Wolf Slayer!"

Bai Yan suppressed his anger, his voice low and deep.

"We are the personal guards of the White Fox lineage!"

"How could a young lady of noble birth travel alone into the city?"

"Is this how your Black Flame Wolf Clan treats the future young master's wife?!"

boom.

No nonsense.

The peak-level Qi and blood of the Microcosm Realm within Wolf Slayer's body descended with an immense pressure, as if it were a tangible force.

Bai Yan groaned, as if struck by a giant hammer, and staggered back several steps, a trickle of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.

Realm suppression.

The difference between the late stage of the Micro Dust Realm and the peak stage of the Micro Dust Realm may seem to be only a hair's breadth, but in reality, they are worlds apart.

"Rules are rules."

Wolf Butcher withdrew his oppressive aura and looked at Bai Yan indifferently.

"Does a fallen White Fox lineage even deserve to flaunt its power in Sirius City?"

"It is already an extraordinary act of mercy from the young master to allow you to remain in the refugee camp."

He looked at Bai Zhi again.

His eyes held a playful, cat-and-mouse-like quality.

"Miss Bai Zhi."

"Young Master said this is for your safety."

"The city has strict rules, and you White Fox people don't understand them. If you offend any lord, even the young master can't protect you."

"You agree, right?"

A critique of the heart.

Bai Zhi stood still.

The wind and sand blew her white dress.

Her hands were slightly clenched within the wide sleeves of her robe.

My fingernail dug into my palm, causing a slight stinging sensation.

She is very smart.

In just a moment, she saw through Lang Shaoxuan's true intentions.

Get off the horse.

Complete isolation.

Wolf Shaoxuan wasn't concerned about safety at all.
