Therefore, Bai Qiong knew where Jing Liu might appear simply because he had read the script.
[Bai Qiong: That fortune teller is so elusive that I can't really track him down. I can only run into him occasionally.]
[Fu Xuan: {What a pity}]
[Bai Qiong: There is no time to lose. The four of the Yunshang Five Warriors should already be on the Immortal Boat. We'd better intercept Jing Liu before they meet.]
[Fu Xuan: Intercept? What a weird way of saying it...][Bai Qiong: Ahem, anyway, it's best to change Jing Liu's idea of going to Linyuan Realm. According to the prophecy of the soothsayer, Jing Liu will confess her crime to make up for the mistakes she made and be taken to "Xu Ling", the headquarters of Xianzhou. If the plot really develops according to this, we won't see her later.]
[Fu Xuan: Tsk, if what you said is true, then my actions at this moment would be considered as betrayal of the Immortal Boat... Well, I would rather believe in the calculations of the Qiongguan Formation. The future of the Luofu Immortal Boat cannot be lost.]
[Fu Xuan: I will go crazy with you this time, just as the general said, there are no taboos!]
[Bai Qiong: Then please, Master Taibu, come with me.]
[Fu Xuan: I am still in Taibusi, you go first, I will be there soon.]
[Fu Xuan: By the way, when you pass by Buyehou, please buy me a cup of sugar water. I want it to be full of sugar, without ice, and without any additives.]
[Bai Qiong:?]
[Bai Qiong: No way, Master Taibu, you still have the mind to drink sugar water at this time?]
[Fu Xuan: Who knows how long I will have to wait with you? What's wrong with drinking some sugar water?! {Angry}]
[Bai Qiong: I know, I know. There is nothing I can do to you...]
Bai Qiong closed the chat interface and let out a long sigh.
He moved his body carefully, trying to get up without waking Su Chang.
"Hmm..." Su Chang seemed to notice something and moaned. She tightened her arms and hugged Bai Qiong even tighter.
Bai Qiong gently stroked Su Chang's soft long hair, feeling a sense of depression in his heart.
Damn it, what is this? Although Su Chang is cute, she can't keep clinging to me like this, right? I still have work to do!
Bai Qiong gently pushed Su Shang, trying to wake her up: "Su Shang, wake up, it's time to get up."
Su Chang opened her eyes drowsily, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and said in a hoarse voice: "Good morning, Master."
"Good morning." Bai Qiong responded, "You get up first, I have to take care of some things."
"No!" Su Chang shook her head coquettishly, buried her head in Bai Qiong's chest and rubbed it, "Sleep with me for a while, or do that thing.
"No, it's really important." Bai Qiong explained patiently, "Be good and listen."
Su Chang raised her head and looked at Bai Qiong pitifully, her big eyes filled with reluctance: "Where are you going, Master? Can you take me with you?"
Bai Qiong hesitated for a moment, but finally shook his head: "No, this matter is quite dangerous, you can't go."
Are you kidding? Let Su Chang play the mirror?
real or fake?
"Danger?" A trace of worry flashed in Su Chang's eyes, "Then the master must be careful!"
"Don't worry, I will." Bai Qiong comforted, "Just stay in the inn and wait for me to come back."
Su Chang reluctantly climbed up from Bai Qiong's arms and said with a pout, "Okay, then the master must come back soon!"
"Yeah." Bai Qiong nodded, stood up and put on his clothes.
Su Chang sat on the bed, looking at Bai Qiong's back, her eyes full of attachment.
Bai Qiong walked to the door, looked back at Su Chang, and said, "I'm leaving."
"Well, goodbye, Master!" Su Chang waved her hand. Bai Qiong opened the door and walked out.
At Liuyundu Wharf, the sun is scorching.
The midday sun poured down unobstructed, scorching the earth.
Bai Qiong and Fu Xuan squatted silently in a corner of the dock, with their backs against a huge cargo box, hiding in the rare shadow.
A slight breeze blew by, bringing a hint of coolness that dispelled some of the heat, but it could not dispel the anxiety in Fu Xuan's heart.
Her petite body twisted slightly, a hint of impatience stained her delicate brows, and she took a deep sip of the Fairy Happy Tea's straw in her mouth.
The rich tea instantly flowed into her mouth, and the sweet taste spread across the tip of her tongue, temporarily calming her irritable mood.
Squinting his eyes in satisfaction, Fu Xuan softened his tone a little, turned his head to look at Bai Qiong who was silent beside him, and complained: "Bai Qiong, how long has it been? The sun is shining on my butt. What do you think, will Jing Liu really show up?
"If it weren't for the fact that the fortune-teller's prediction came true last time, I would really suspect that you were playing a trick on me and deliberately making fun of me!"
Bai Qiong still maintained a focused expression, his eyes as sharp as an eagle, closely locking onto every slight movement at the entrance of the dock.
Hearing Fu Xuan's angry complaint, he turned his head slightly, a soothing smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he gently patted her thin shoulder and whispered: "Master Taibu, please be patient and wait a little longer. I believe Jingliu will definitely come."
Having said that, Bai Qiong was not completely sure in his heart.
After all, since the Star Dome Railway was opened to the world, the direction of the plot has deviated from the established track.
He had already experienced the power of the butterfly effect. Who knew if Jingliu would appear in another place? Just as Bai Qiong's thoughts were surging, a very subtle strange sound quietly reached his ears.
The sound was so light that it was almost imperceptible, as if it was the slight friction sound of a breeze blowing across the surface of metal, or the slight breaking sound of a sharp blade cutting through the air.
Bai Qiong caught the faint sound instantly and his nerves immediately tensed up.
Doom perception triggered!
"Master Taibu, stop drinking. Something's happening!" Bai Qiong lowered his voice with a barely perceptible excitement in his tone. He quickly pulled up Fu Xuan, who was still enjoying the sweet taste of the sugar water. His movements were quick and decisive, without any delay.
Fu Xuan was immersed in the cool, sweet syrup. He was caught off guard and his petite body was almost pulled off the ground by Bai Qiong, causing him to lose his balance.
She screamed and the Fairy Happy Tea in her hand almost fell out of her hand. Her two legs clad in white silk stockings kicked frantically in the air.
"Stop, stop, stop! Bai Qiong! Do you want to strangle me to death!?"
Fu Xuan shouted in panic, with a hint of fierce anger, and his little face turned red.
At this moment, Bai Qiong didn't bother to appease the furious Taibu. He dragged Fu Xuan towards the direction where the sound came from as if he was a silicone girlfriend.
The two men hid behind a huge cargo box, held their breath, and carefully stuck their heads out to peek outside.
The scene that came into view instantly made Bai Qiong's pupils shrink and his heart beat faster.
The target they had been waiting for finally appeared, Jingliu, standing in the middle of the dock.
She was as straight as a sword, wearing a simple blue-black dress that outlined her delicate yet powerful figure.
The black eye mask covered her eyes, but it could not conceal the heart-pounding sword energy emanating from her.
She held tightly in her hand a long sword of simple shape, with a cold light flowing through the sword body, as if even the air around her was frozen, emitting a hint of chill.
At Jingliu's feet, there were several corpses of various evil creatures lying in a mess. The smelly blood soaked the ground, emitting a disgusting smell.
Each corpse showed amazing consistency. They were all cut in half with a single sword. The cuts were as smooth as a mirror, without any drag. It was extremely clean and neat.
Even though they were at a distance, Bai Qiong could still clearly feel the icy sword energy emanating from Jing Liu, as if it was going to freeze everything around him.
Feeling the chill in this hot summer, Bai Qiong couldn't help but take a deep breath and felt a chill in his heart.
At this moment, Jingliu's ears moved slightly, like the most sophisticated radar, capturing the gaze from the direction of the cargo box.
She slowly turned her head, and her eyes, covered by the black blindfold, seemed to have the power to penetrate all obstacles. Her gaze accurately penetrated the cargo box and locked directly on the place where Bai Qiong and Fu Xuan were hiding.
"You two, are you here for me? You've been hiding for so long, it's time to come out and see me."
Jingliu's voice was cold and calm, like the water in a cold pond, without a single ripple, yet it contained a chilling sense of oppression.
This is not an invitation but an unquestionable declaration.
Bai Qiong's heart trembled, and he secretly sighed that Jing Liu's perception was so sharp that it was far beyond his imagination.
Now that you have been discovered, there is no point in hiding any further. It will only make you appear cowardly and inferior.
He simply stopped hiding, and pulled Fu Xuan, who was still a little confused, and walked out calmly from behind the cargo box.
Fu Xuan obviously hadn't recovered yet, still mumbling in dissatisfaction: "Wait, my sugar water has spilled... and you messed up my clothes, you are such a rude guy..."
Bai Qiong reluctantly let go of Fu Xuan's arm and let her tidy up her appearance.
He stood still, smiling, and bowed slightly to Jingliu who was not far away, and said loudly: "I have heard of your great name for a long time. Jingliu, one of the Five Warriors on the Cloud, has killed countless people of abundance, the feathered guards of the Wing Maker, the father wolf of Buliren, and even the beasts as tall as mountains. All of them fell under your sword. You are famous, right?"
When Jingliu heard Baiqiong's slightly flattering words, his face remained calm, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.
She spoke calmly, her voice still cold: "Oh? It seems that you know a lot about my past, but that is all gone. Now I am just a sinner with a lot of sins."
Bai Qiong's heart sank slightly. Although Jing Liu's attitude seemed peaceful, his words revealed a sense of alienation that kept people at a distance, as well as an indescribable depression and heaviness.
"Just know that you are a sinner!"
Fu Xuan finally tidied up his slightly messy clothes. Hearing Jing Liu's words, he immediately snorted arrogantly. With his hands on his waist, his delicate face was full of self-righteousness. He raised his head and said bluntly, "You are now a wanted criminal on the Xianzhou list. Anyone can kill you! I advise you to listen to us, understand?"
Although Fu Xuan was petite, he was full of vigor at the moment, with his head held high and his chest puffed out, showing a bit of the majesty and momentum of Taibu-sama.
She kept facing Bai Qiong and asked calmly, "I wonder why you two are looking for me? Are you trying to arrest me?"
She paused for a moment, her lips curled up with a hint of self-mockery, and continued: "I advise you two not to waste your energy. I came to the Immortal Boat just to meet a few old friends and settle some worldly ties. After everything is settled, I will go to the Shen Ce Mansion and confess my crime."
Bai Qiong took a deep breath and tried to adjust his body which was slightly stiff due to squatting for a long time. He looked directly into Jing Liu's eyes which were covered by the blindfold with burning eyes and said in a serious and solemn tone: "No, you can't go to see them"
He paused, quickly organized his words, and continued: "I know that you came to the Immortal Boat with Luosha this time, seemingly to confess your crime, but in fact you wanted to use the power of the Ten Kings' Order to sneak into the Prison of Hell, intending to confront the six generals and even the marshal, secretly planning to seize the power to kill the Medicine Master. Am I right?"
Bai Qiong's words were like a bolt of thunder that instantly broke the calm situation and created ripples in the air.
Jing Liu's originally calm face finally changed. Her calm expression began to crack like solid ice, and her face suddenly revealed incredible shock and vigilance.
"Who are you?" Jing Liu's voice was still cold.
Chapter 5.5 It's so... so hot! (K)
"So, you mean to reject our proposal?"
Fu Xuan put his hands on his hips, his brows furrowed on his delicate little face, and there was a hint of displeasure in his tone.
She raised her little face and looked at Jing Liu in front of her with full aura, feeling a little awkward in her heart.
Jing Liu did not answer Fu Xuan directly, but slowly raised the sword in his hand.
In an instant, the whole body was filled with cold light, and the dock seemed to have fallen into the coldest time of winter. The air seemed to have solidified, and the oppressive chill made people's skin sting.
The aura around her rose like a bottomless pit, and the originally calm ground quickly condensed into layers of frost, and the silvery-white ice spread in all directions like a spider web.
"If you two really want to stop me.
Jingliu's cold voice carried an unquestionable scrutiny, "Then let me see your determination. Let's see if you have the strength to convince me to change my mind."
"Ah, do we still have to do it in the end? It's really troublesome
Fu Xuan held his forehead and complained softly, but there was no sign of retreat in his tone.
Bai Qiong seemed quite calm. He calmly pulled out a baseball bat from behind him and swung it casually in his hand twice. The stick cut through the air, making a low "whoosh" sound.
"Hasn't this situation been anticipated long ago?"
Bai Qiong raised the corner of his mouth and gave a helpless smile, "If all problems can be solved by talking, the world would have been peaceful long ago."
He carried the baseball bat on his shoulder and assumed a somewhat casual batting stance, but his eyes gradually became sharper and his fighting spirit began to rise.
"Besides,
Bai Qiong tilted his head to look at Fu Xuan beside him, with a look of fearless confidence in his eyes, "Even if the opponent is Jingliu, don't you still have Master Taibu?"
"Humph!"
Upon hearing this, Fu Xuan glanced at him unhappily, his petite cheeks puffed up slightly, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly.
"Really, at this critical moment, you still have to count on me.
She stretched out her hand and gently patted Bai Qiong's shoulder, motioning him to come closer, "You, bend down, I have something to tell you."
Bai Qiong looked at Master Taibu's serious expression, then looked at her petite body, and couldn't help but chuckle.
He bent down as he was told and put his ear close to Fu Xuan.
Fu Xuan stood on tiptoe, holding Bai Qiong's shoulders with his two small hands, and leaned close to his ear. In a voice that only the two of them could hear, he said quickly and seriously: "Let me make it clear first, I am good at deduction and defense. I don't have many means of direct attack, and I can only use them at the most critical moment."
She paused, her tone more serious, "For this battle, I will use the 'Taiwei chess, Lingtai shadow' technique to project a miniature Qiongguan formation and calculate her attack for you."
