It's the beauty that brings disaster. I'm also desperate.

“I’m not simple either.”

Chapter 32 I miss Sister Hua a little bit...

After fiddling with the wall for a few times, the secret door opened silently, revealing a secret passage that was not dark at all. The moment the door opened, Xia Li's consciousness, which was isolated by the special material, all flowed into it...

Because it is used to guard against powerful enemies, the material that I asked Hua Shuangxue to find took a long time to find. It can isolate the consciousness of masters around the first level of the martial arts realm.

Xia Li was actually very surprised that he could get such good materials.

However, Hua Shuangxue said that she had some connections outside. Thinking that the other party was a wandering warrior with good strength, Sheng Sheng didn't suspect anything since she knew what to do.

Now it is clear that this material should be better than she imagined, and it may be able to isolate more than just one level of consciousness.

——As expected of one of the "Five Splendors", the work is reliable...

Thinking of Hua Shuangxue, the girl was a little distracted.

I guess it's because when he saw the familiar things in Taoyuan, he couldn't help but think of the other person who was always at his beck and call, and he felt a little nostalgic.

Of course, that’s all.

I didn't have this thought that just because I saw that the other party had a beauty comparable to my own and such powerful strength, I suddenly felt that Hua Shuangxue was actually quite good...

As a result, I couldn't help but think about her several times.

"Brother, what do you think this ghost is..."

"Hey! You ask me how I know. This is my first time too. But the ghosts have oppressed and enslaved our people for a hundred years. This time, the three of us are bringing glory to mankind!"

"Don't ask too many questions, Third Brother. You will experience it yourself later."

"I'm excited. Aren't you excited, second brother? She is not only a ghost, but also the wife of a ghost general who just entered the Lu Mansion! I heard that she has a gentle temperament and her voice is more beautiful than a bird's singing..."

Just when Xia Li couldn't help but think of her sister Hua, feeling some sadness and nostalgia of "the ancients have gone away on the yellow crane, leaving only the Yellow Crane Tower here", the consciousness that poured into the secret passage finally hit the target.

Three rough-looking humans.

They are the type who often do hard labor. Two of them are of fifth-grade cultivation, and one is of fourth-grade.

The moment she sensed the three people's images, the girl frowned. When she heard the conversation between the three people, her eyebrows furrowed even more deeply...

"What are you excited about?"

"I heard that the new wife is called Fang Shengsheng. She has an ordinary appearance and her figure is just okay. She is not as good as Cheng..."

"Shh! Shut up—!"

The second brother seemed to be somewhat disdainful of Shengsheng, but when he mentioned another person, his eyes showed admiration. Although the other party only mentioned one word, Xia Li had already guessed who it was.

The eldest brother, who had the highest cultivation level among the three, immediately stopped him, his expression serious and he subconsciously looked back.

--oh?

——There is one more person.

Following the other party's subconscious action, Xia Li's mind moved and continued to spread his consciousness...

When they were still some distance away from the Peach Garden, they discovered that there was another person hiding behind the three of them. This person had a good cultivation level, at least a third-grade one. Xia Li had seen her before, and she was one of the palace guards in the inner courtyard of the Lu Mansion.

Last name: Lu.

I learned from Xiang Yi that this surname was given by the previous owner of the Lu family.

That is, the Lu Mansion Guard, which should be a neutral faction in theory, is an old man with considerable strength who followed the previous master.

I never thought that Cheng Qian could recruit her to her team...

——It’s not easy.

Although he was praising her in his heart, after seeing Cheng Qian's arrangement against him, Xia Li just wanted to crush her to ashes. However, that was a matter for later.

Then I will slowly settle the accounts...

The most urgent task is to resolve the current sinister plot.

......

"Brother, why are you so quiet? This place is so secretive, and that Lu didn't come with us. I just love Lady Cheng Qian, so you're not allowed to tell me?"

"It's better to be cautious... Second brother, third brother, if we do this, we will be free, so don't get into any trouble because of something inappropriate."

"Second brother, I also think what elder brother said makes sense. How can Lady Cheng Qian look down on us? When we go to Dingyu City, it will be more reliable to find a human wife."

"Not bad!"

The three of them were talking in a very low voice in the secret passage, but Xia Li could sense it.

Ever since Ming Cinder Pot absorbed enough Yin Qi, her perception was equivalent to that of a first-class warrior, and even slightly higher, approaching the first level of the martial arts realm...

and so.

Only then did she discover that the materials of the secret passage were much better than she had originally thought, and she realized belatedly how serious Hua Shuangxue was in working for her.

The three brothers were whispering, but Xia Li couldn't hide even a punctuation mark. She approached them silently, looking down on them in her heart.

These three were human warriors, and their cultivation of the fourth or fifth rank would have been considered well-known figures in the past. But now they have become so humble...

She felt sad for the mentality of the three people.

I wonder if other humans are like them, treating ghosts as superiors, with their spines almost bent to the ground. In just a hundred years, they have become so servile!

As for what the three were about to do to him, Xia Li was not very angry...

after all.

It's not worth getting angry at a few dying people, especially since they are just tools.

"Second brother, third brother, let me say it first."

"Let's make it quick this time, don't be greedy..."

The eldest of the three brothers said in a deep voice.

Cheng Qian's promise was that it would be ok as long as they were dirty, and she would send the three of them away from Renwang City after the task was completed. But ever since the Lv Fuwei followed in, the boss was always worried.

He became a warrior slave after being captured, and his two sworn brothers grew up in Niou Castle and were specially trained as warrior slaves...

The former is wild and the latter is domesticated.

Therefore, the eldest brother's knowledge is far superior to that of his two younger brothers.

"Why, big brother? Where's the ghost? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"

After hearing what the eldest brother said, the third brother, who had been looking forward to it, immediately retorted.

I was so excited that I couldn't control my voice and even forgot the low conversation we had agreed to have.

"Brother, this is indeed a rare opportunity."

"...There's no need to rush for a while, right?"

The second brother, who had previously looked down on Xia Li, became very reluctant when he heard the eldest brother's warning.

His face looked a little ugly.

"Hey... My two brothers, listen to me. Fang Shengsheng is the wife of General Yin after all. If we delay for too long, we may have a hard time getting away."

"Tsk tsk, you're quite smart."

"who--?!"

The eldest brother was just about to explain his own judgment and guess in detail that this matter was not as simple as his two younger brothers thought.

At this moment, a clear and pleasant voice came into the ears of the three people.

The three of them immediately became alert. The eldest reacted the fastest and took a defensive stance, while the other two were stunned for a moment before doing so...

Within their field of vision, a dark shadow, facing the candlelight, emerged from the secret passage in front.

The secret passage was not a straight line, but a winding one. But the boss had chosen the middle of a straight line so that there would be time for reaction even if someone attacked suddenly.

therefore.

Xia Li couldn’t launch a sneak attack anymore, so he just walked towards him head-on.

"who are you?"

The boss asked again.

His heart was beating fast at this moment. He had some good intuition after traveling around. He had a bad feeling before he was caught by the ghost soldiers of Renwang City. And now the feeling from that year appeared again, and it was more than ten times stronger!

The candles on both sides of the secret passage were not bright, with only one candle every long distance...

In the flickering firelight, the person walking slowly towards me had no clear face and no shadow. It must be a ghost without a doubt.

"Ha! Who am I?"

Hear the words.

Xia Li smiled. Wasn't she the focus of their topic just now? And who else could be walking from this direction besides her in the bathroom?

I'm afraid I'm too surprised and a little bit unbelievable.

"you guess."

Xia Li walked closer and closer, and the firelight reflected the skin that was whiter than that of humans, and... a very ordinary face.

But those lips were bright red, as if dipped in bright red blood, or like blooming poppies.

She is laughing.

But the smile became colder and colder.

She told them...

"Guess~."

"The one who guesses correctly dies last."

Chapter 33: The only martial arts in the world that cannot be defeated is speed

"die?"

Although Xia Li suddenly appeared in front of them, startling the three of them, they soon discovered that the newcomer was only a fifth-grade cultivator and was not to be feared at all...

"Hahaha, you're quite arrogant."

The other two people except the eldest laughed loudly when they heard the words. They had two fifth-rank and one fourth-rank, and there were even stronger guards hiding behind them... It was really funny that such a small ghost spoke with a tone that acted as if he controlled life and death.

"Oh, who is it?"

"Your name is Fang Shengsheng, right? The three of us brothers were just about to look for you, but you came to us unexpectedly. Could it be that you can't wait any longer...?"

The second of the three was quick-witted and had already realized Xia Li's identity.

After judging.

Not only was he no longer panicking, he was secretly trying to get excited...

Because Fang Shengsheng was much more beautiful than he had imagined. The so-called 'beauty' was not in her appearance. Her appearance was as ordinary as he had heard... The 'beauty' he felt came from her temperament. She had a very unique aura, and there was elegance in her every move.

She is completely different from the women I usually see!

In a trance, he even felt that the goddess in his mind, Cheng Qian, was not as beautiful as Fang Shengsheng.

——No, no!

The man quickly shook his head, wondering how he could think like that.

It's really strange...

But let’s be honest.

The ghost in front of me has a graceful figure and a slender body. If you don’t pay special attention to her face, you will like her no matter how you look at her!

——Okay, okay!

——Satisfied. I am really satisfied with this trip.

The man cheered in his heart. He was dismissive of Fang Shengsheng at first, but now he was more excited than the third brother. He was eager to show his wisdom and said his inference.

At the end of the sentence, Huahua teased Xia Li.

"Well......"

The girl was not angry when she heard what he said.

Instead, she tapped her lower lip with her finger, looking as if she was thinking seriously. Her innocent and naive appearance attracted all the attention of the third and second oldest brothers. Only the eldest brother felt alarm bells ringing in his heart. He felt that it was getting harder and harder to breathe, as if a disaster was about to happen!
