“Miss Su, it’s good that you’re alright.”
Zhang Yuanwu smiled into a flower when he saw that the white-clothed girl was safe, but when he glanced at Qin Li, his face instantly turned gloomy: “Grey-robed loose cultivator, why are you here?”
He asked this, but his heart was beating a bit!
It shouldn’t be, didn’t he send someone to kill Qin Li?
How did this kid appear here for good reason?
Qin Li was silent, not bothering with him.
Zhang Yuanwu was furious and drank, ”Little fellow, you dare to ignore me, you’re quite bold! Moreover, you filthy loose cultivator, you also dare to enter Miss Su’s boudoir, really polluting the air, come on people, throw him out for this young master.”
Several Immortal Lords came out in a line, their faces unkind.
“Wait!”
The white-clothed girl protected the front and said, “This gentleman is my saviour, if not for him, I would have met an untimely end. I also ask Zhang Gongzi to raise his hand.”
Zhang Yuanwu froze, glanced sideways at the headless body on the ground, and said indistinctly, “So it was you who saved Miss Su, well, this young master is generous and does not want to bother with you.”
The white-clothed girl added: “Prince Zhang, he has already become my guard, please ask if you can get a guest room on the opposite side of the room and arrange him in there, so that once something happens, there will be something to take care of.”
Zhang Yuanwu shook his head like a rattle drum and flatly refused, “No way, this guy is hiding his head, how can he live across from Miss Su, if he commits misdemeanours in the night, that would not be good.”
In fact, he wanted to live across the street so that he could have a kiss at night.
The white-clothed girl’s pretty face stiffened as she pursued, “Since that’s the case, then arrange for a guest room close by for this gentleman to stay.”
Zhang Yuanwu’s eyes twinkled as he sneered, “Coincidentally, today’s business is booming, there are no spare guest rooms at the Yuelai Inn, but the firewood room at the back can accommodate an underling.”
Upon hearing this, the crowd revealed sounds of shame and laughter.
The green-skirted maiden also shook her head, the Yuelai Inn was the property of the City Lord, how could she possibly live in it after offending Zhang Yuanwu.
The white clothed maiden, however, was furious and spoke in a shocking manner, “Since there are no guest rooms, I won’t bother Lord Zhang, so let this gentleman cohabit with me for one night!”
Cohabitation for one night!
“No!”
Zhang Yuanwu, the green-skirted girl screamed out.
“Miss Su, I misremembered just now, the opposite side’s Tian Zi No. 2 room is still vacant, let this hemp-robed loose cultivator live in it!”Zhang Yuanwu hurriedly remedied the situation.
“Miss, don’t mess around. Both of us are innocent, if we live with a strange man for one night and it gets out to the sect, how will this make us look good!”The green-skirted maiden had a face of disapproval.
The white-clothed maiden nodded, “Fine, let mister stay in room number two of the Heavenly Character.”
Only then did this matter come to an end.
Soon!
The crowd exited the room.
Qin Li was about to enter room number two of the Heavenly Character.
Zhang Yuanwu spoke sorrowfully, “You wild cultivator, you’ve slashed my face several times and robbed me of the opportunity to heroically save my beauty, you’re truly detestable. Don’t let me catch the opportunity, otherwise ……”
Snap!
The door of the room slammed shut.
Qin Li pressed on, not wanting to pay any attention to this clown.
Outside the door, Zhang Yuanwu’s furious face was green for a while and white for a while as he secretly swore, “Fine, fine, you damned loose cultivator, I’ll break you into pieces sooner or later.”
Nightfall.
The white moon hung high and the stars were dotted.
Qin Li greeted the moonlight and was studying the Husbandman’s Handbook and the Record of Soldiering Disasters, he now had a thought process and was able to advance to the second rank of Immortal King, just missing some experiments.
Knock knock knock!
A knock sounded on the door.
“The door is unlocked, come in!”Qin Li said indifferently.
The white-clothed girl, and the green-skirted girl pushed their way in, carrying some pastries in their hands.
“Hey, these are the pastries that the young lady prepared for you, to thank you for saving your life.”The green-skirted maiden put down a box of pastries.
The white-clothed maiden’s lotus steps were graceful, and she smiled graciously, “Mister, I haven’t had time to introduce myself yet, I’m Su Qingxue, and this is my maid, Zhao Lingzhi.”
“I wonder what is your name, sir?”
Qin Li was flabbergasted.
It seemed like he hadn’t thought of a fake name.
Thinking for a moment, Qin Li replied, “Surname Huang and name Jin, you can call me Gold.”
“Ah!”Zhao Lingzhi yelped and despised, “That name is too tacky, why don’t you call yourself Immortal Stone!”
Su Qingxue glared at her, “Lingzhi, cut the crap. Names are all acquired by parents, there’s no such thing as noble and vulgar.”
Qin Li smiled faintly, his impression of this Miss Su was not bad, so he asked, “By the way, do you guys know where the assassin came from? Could it be that you have some great enemy?”
Su Qingxue showed a difficult expression.
Zhao Lingzhi, on the other hand, coldly said, “It’s none of your business, so don’t ask too many questions.”
Qin Li shook his head and smiled, “Then you guys should always tell me the purpose of this escort.”
Su Qingxue organised her words and explained, “West of Chaoha City, there is a giant ancient abandoned mining pit, and I’m going down to look for a material. In order to prevent accidents, so I’m hiring an escort.”
“Abandoned mining pit, or ancient.”
Qin Li frowned slightly, feeling that this Resident Green Flower was not easy to earn.
Every mining vein was a great treasure, the benefits of which would make even an Immortal King’s heart flutter.
However, the bizarre thing was that every mining vein would not be dug cleanly, as something evil would occur while digging.
If one dug through the strata, causing it to collapse, or if a dark river backed up, it would still be understandable. If you dig up poisonous clouds, dead bug nests, and 10,000 year old corpses, it’s still acceptable, but if you dig up some demons, it’s going to be a big problem.
In the Record of Soldiers’ Disasters, there was a strange incident recorded. A long time ago, a demon was dug out of a gold crystal vein.
Tens of thousands of miners disappeared overnight, not even half a trace was left behind, and the most bizarre thing was that all the gold crystal ores that had not been dug up also disappeared, seemingly evaporating from the earth.
And the more ancient the pit, the more it breeds terror, some ancient pits can even bury Immortal Kings, bizarre.
But there was also a saying that ancient mining pits often bred great treasures.
“What are you guys looking for in the ancient mining pits?”Qin Li asked.
Su Qingxue shook her head, “Mr Jin, forgive me I can’t tell you. By the way, this is half of the Resident Green Flower, as a deposit, and we’ll give you the other half when we come out of the pit.”
Zhao Lingzhi took out a jade box, in which lay half of the Resident Green Flower, a total of nine petals, verdant and green, like green glaze.
“Good!”Qin Li accepted the Resident Green Flower.
“We’ll set off tomorrow.”Su Qingxue excused herself and left with Zhao Lingzhi.
Qin Li looked at the jade box and couldn’t help but smile, “A single petal is enough to refine an Ease of Appearance Pill, and the remaining petals are enough to refine eight Resident Green Pills, which can be used as gifts for wives.”
Saying so!
Qin Li threw out the white iron furnace.
A second grade furnace, it was really not complimentary, but it was barely but usable.
Fortunately, Qin Li was a Sixth Grade Alchemist, and could already send and receive as he wished, and after half a night’s work had passed, a furnace had produced a Fourth Grade Facelift Pill.
“Let me try the effects of the elixir.”
Qin Li crushed the elixir, mixed it with spring water, and applied it to his face.
The medicinal power penetrated the skin and softened the flesh and blood, at this point, Qin Li’s face was equivalent to playdough and could be pinched at will into the desired look.
Moreover, the effect of the Transfiguration Pill was permanent, unless one used a Transfiguration Pill to pinch his appearance back, otherwise he would have a different face for the rest of his life.
“Pinch a popular face!”
Qin Li ravaged his face for a while.
Soon, he was no longer sword-browed and starry-eyed, and his looks were average, it was these eyes that glowed with gold from time to time, giving people a mysterious and noble feeling.
“Forget it, that’s it!”Qin Li withdrew his hand.
The night grew deeper and deeper until the light of day dawned.
As the sun crossed the horizon, Su Qingxue’s voice came from outside the door.
“Mr Jin, we’re leaving.”
“Coming!”Qin Li still put on his hood.
Downstairs.
A group of people converged.
Apart from Qin Li, Su Qingxue, and Zhao Lingzhi, there was also Zhang Yuanwu, as well as several of his dog legs, and two recruited guards.
“Eunuch Zhang, for the next journey, I’ll trouble you to act as a guide.”Su Qingxue smiled.
Zhang Yuanwu patted his chest and assured, “Don’t worry Miss Su, this generation is all our family territory, I will definitely protect you.”
“Alright, everyone set off!”
At once.
The crowd took to the air and travelled all the way to the west.
Zhang Yuanwu flew in front, talking and laughing with Su Qingxue.
However, from time to time, he turned his head sideways and took a look at Qin Li, his heart somewhat alarmed.
“Odd, I sent the ten Immortal Lords to intercept him, why is he unharmed while the ten Immortal Lords are nowhere to be found, can’t it be that these guys are grinding behind my back and getting away with it? Damn it, don’t let me catch them.”
The crowd flew rapidly.
At noon, approaching a small city.
White Mining City, next to it was an ancient abandoned white iron ore vein.
