One person: Longhushan security guard, stopped the Ten Elders until they cried!

【Separation - Kagerou!】

Whoosh—!

【Kun Character - Earth River Chariot!】

Bang bang bang!

[The clapper sounds!]

Behind them, not far away in the direction of the canteen, intense fluctuations of Qi continued.

A gust of wind whipped up a heatwave, turning half the night sky crimson.

Zhou Yan stopped in his tracks.

He didn't turn back to look at the chaotic battlefield, but instead looked at Fu Rong in front of him, and scratched his nose:

"Why did you suddenly tie your hair up?"

Fu Rong took a deep breath.

She tied her long hair into a neat ponytail with her hands behind her back using a hairband.

Then, with a flick of his wrist, he drew his natal short sword from his waist, the tip pointing diagonally at the ground!

"For some reason..." Fu Rong's voice was low, and she assumed an offensive stance:

"I can't let you through just yet."

Zhou Yan raised his eyebrows.

No way...

Has she gone mad from cooking? She really doesn't know how she managed to take on four people all by herself without even breaking a sweat...

Did you really think she saved you?

"You...are you really going to stop me?" Zhou Yan asked.

"Trust me, and trust the cult leader... He won't harm you."

Fu Rong gripped the knife hilt tightly, her tone gentle, "Don't make things difficult for me, Brother Jing~"

buzzing-

Zhou Yan's phone suddenly vibrated in his pocket.

It was Xu Si calling.

He glanced at the battlefield not far away.

Based on Fu Rong's words, it seems I can understand a little better what Ma Xianhong is up to...

With that thought in mind, he stopped hesitating and decisively pressed the answer button.

"Brother Zhou, I've found out about Zhao Guizhen."

Xu Si's voice betrayed an undisguised disgust:

That's a fucking beast!

Zhao... returned to his true form?

Brother Zhao!

Fu Rong blinked, about to speak, when Zhou Yan pinched her mouth shut!

"Shh..."

On the other end of the phone, Xu Si continued:

I found out that in his early years, Zhao Guizhen, under the guise of adoption, "helped" many children, feeding them and teaching them some rudimentary skills...

For a time, many people mistakenly thought he was some kind of enlightened master, and he was quite respected!

Until a year ago... he was caught murdering a boy by his fellow disciples!

Fu Rong's hand holding the knife trembled violently!

This person specifically targets children with specific birth dates and times...and then brutally murders them...and captures their souls!

The purpose is to cultivate the evil technique—the Seven Fiends Body Gathering Technique!

The more resentful and strong the birth chart of the souls captured by this evil magic, the stronger its power!

After his scheme was exposed, he severely injured his fellow disciple and fled in disarray; his whereabouts remain unknown to this day...

I will send his relevant information to your phone as a document with images and text later.

can.

With Xu Si's official endorsement, this is a sure thing.

It was late at night.

The sound from the receiver reached Fu Rong's ears without missing a single word.

Her eyes widened in shock, and she didn't even care that she had been sculpted into a Psyduck!

The Taoist priest Zhao, who I spent several months with and who was kind and gentle to everyone, was actually such a heartless scumbag.

"Ugh! Waaaaah!"

Fu Rong stepped on Zhou Yan's foot!

Zhou Yan withdrew his hand, put his index finger to his lips, and gestured for her to be quiet.

Xu Si continued:

I don't know why you're looking for this person's file...

But Brother Zhou, this guy is on the Shangqing Sect's radar. If you take care of him, I can help you claim the reward from them.

Zhou Yan relaxed and held his nerves:

"Whether there's a bounty or not doesn't matter; the main thing is to rid the people of this scourge!"

Xu Si: [By the way, speaking of magical artifacts...]

Zhou Yan's expression turned serious!

With a thought, the Qi within his body began to circulate...

A thin layer of golden light instantly formed a circle, enveloping his entire body!

Fu Rong stood there, suddenly realizing... she couldn't hear a single word.

She stepped forward in disbelief, reaching out to touch the thin, gossamer-like golden light, her pupils contracting...

real or fake?

Half a year has passed... and this kid's Golden Light Mantra has actually reached such a level?!

Zhou Yan ignored her and turned away.

On the other end of the phone, Xu Si said seriously:

"Weapon refiners are limited by their talent, and have always been extremely rare..."

Therefore, ritual implements are rare and hard to come by; once they are released, they often fetch astronomical prices.

"Brother Zhou, you mentioned batch production... I need to figure out first, what type of magical artifacts are you referring to?"

After thinking for a moment, he added, "To be honest, if there were any defensive ones, I'd really like them!"

Zhou Yan's lips curled into a wide smile...

If you were to ask what kind of magical artifacts Biyou Village has the most of, it would definitely be the defensive type!

Ma Xianhong, that big spender, basically provides every single person with a good root!

"What a coincidence... I have a protective magic artifact!" Zhou Yan said casually.

"It's a high-end product; it can activate automatically when it senses malice, without requiring human intervention!"

Tell me, what price are you willing to offer?

On the other end of the phone, Xu Si narrowed his eyes.

It actually exists!

Originally, he had little contact with magical artifacts and had never thought about such things...

But Liao Zhong is dead!

I had met that person in charge of the South China region a few times before.

The other party is not only tough in style, but also a very powerful individual.

As a fellow regional head, Xu Si naturally adopted his own perspective and felt an unprecedented sense of crisis!

Of course, compared to myself.

What worries him more is Feng Baobao, who is gradually coming to the forefront...

Chairman Zhao had already informed him that all temporary workers would be mobilized to carry out a secret mission.

A storm is brewing!

Xu Si exhaled a long puff of smoke and said in a deep voice:

"Since Brother Zhou said so, I naturally trust him... I'll take this protective artifact!"

Zhou Yan took out the jade pendant he had previously taken from Ding Zihuan and tossed it in his hand.

These things are a dime a dozen in Biyou Village... As long as the other party's offer isn't too low, even 100,000 or 200,000 is acceptable.

Just focus on volume!

As it turned out, he still didn't go deep enough!

[Five hundred thousand!]

Xu Si said in a deep voice, "Brother Zhou, although I'm a regional manager, this is all I can afford out of my own pocket for now..."

Zhou Yan shook his head:

"Three hundred thousand."

Xu Si: [Sigh... I know you feel like you're getting ripped off, but... we're all so close, and you already said it's wholesale price... wait, what did you say?!]

Zhou Yan grinned:

"We're all brothers, no need for 500,000 or 800,000, it's a flat price, 300,000!"

On the other end of the phone, I heard cries of pain: "Hiss!" and "Holy crap!"

Although Zhou Yan couldn't see it, he guessed that the other person must have been so surprised that... the cigarette butt fell onto their crotch...

"Hey Xu Laosi, don't act like you've never seen the world before."

Zhou Yan said slowly and deliberately, "Three hundred thousand. I currently have three protective magic artifacts of this level! I won't sell them individually!"

Xu Si's voice cracked: ["Duo... Duo Shao?!!"]

Zhou Yan: "Three items!"

"Listen carefully, this is only for now, only three items! As for the follow-up... give me three days, getting eight or ten more shouldn't be a problem. There are others too."

Zhou Yan carefully recalled the magical artifacts of the cultivators in Biyou Village from his memory, listing them off as if they were his own treasures:

"There are megaphones that can spray 'exhaling air' when you yell at them..."

A giant Ruyi scepter capable of both external Qi release and close-quarters combat... a mechanical beast that can fly overhead and swallow the Qi of others... In short!

He paused, giving Xu Si a few seconds to process the situation.

"This business is too big for you to handle alone... but you can discuss it with others!"

Don't keep me waiting too long. If you can't afford it, don't blame me for asking Tianxia Group...

beep-

Zhou Yan hung up the phone, and the golden light instantly disappeared into his body.

He looked up at Fu Rong opposite him:

"Ah, sorry to keep you waiting!"

He just lied to Xu Si.

Currently, I only have two protective magical artifacts in my possession.

But it's okay...there will be three soon!

Fu Rong blushed deeply under his suddenly intense gaze...

"Hello!"

She gripped the dagger with both hands, holding it in front of her chest, and shouted with feigned bravado but underlying fear:

"You...you...don't come any closer! I'm telling you, that incident back then was an accident! Besides, I paid for it! I..."

Before he could finish speaking...

Zhou Yan on the other side has disappeared.

Fu Rong felt a blur before her eyes, and a strong wind rushed towards her face!

A dark shadow appeared beside her like a ghost.

A warm hand had been placed on her forehead without her noticing...

Give it a hard push!

call out!

Fu Rong lost her balance and spun around twice and a half times in mid-air.

*Smack!*

He landed firmly on the ground...

Even now, she is still in a daze.

Why is my protective amulet not responding?

How could he be so fast?

It's so close... my eyes can't even keep up!

After a brief moment of stunned silence... I couldn't help but get angrier the more I thought about it!

No one can improve their strength to this extent in just six months...

That bastard!

They actually hid their true strength that night!

Just as Fu Rong was about to turn around and fight back, she realized that her wrist was empty.

The dagger I cherished more than my own life... is gone!

"Zhou Yan, you...!"

Before he could finish speaking, a cold, sharp light had already pierced his neck and stuck into the ground!

She instantly got goosebumps all over.

At such close range, you can even feel the sharpness of the blade, which is almost enough to pierce through your skin!

And Zhou Yan... actually 'rode' on her back!

One hand was still restlessly groping up and down her waist...

"Hey! You, surnamed Zhou, you...you!"

All the dead memories came rushing back at once.

Fu Rong's breathing became heavy, her body gradually went limp, and her strength seemed to be drained away bit by bit...

The voice trailed off, cheek pressed against the dirt, as it murmured, "No...not here!"

Suddenly, I felt a lightness in my body.

Fu Rong braced herself on the ground with her arms and turned her head to look.

The blush on her face hadn't faded yet; she gritted her teeth and said angrily:

"You stinky man...you...your good brother is still getting beaten up over there, and you're already in such a hurry...wait, what?"

Fu Rong blinked.

They noticed that Zhou Yan was holding a string of copper coins strung together with a red cord, examining it closely.

That's... her protective magic artifact!

"Your magical artifact is quite good; it's mine now."

Zhou Yan grinned and naturally put the copper coin into his pocket.

He raised his hand and pointed behind him in the direction of the fierce battle:

"As for over there..."

"Didn't you say yourself that you wanted me to believe you, to believe Village Chief Ma, and that you wouldn't harm us?"
