44: My impart is gone, the more I think about it the angrier I get.
When water is full, it overflows, and Tang Wan was no exception, collapsing directly onto the ground, completely devoid of any dignity befitting a Reaching the Profound expert.
Tang Wan, you're still so curious, I love it, I love it!
...Time flowed silently, and inside the room, Xu Xi was riding his horse, enjoying himself to the fullest.
Outside, Tang Wan was exploring on her own, thoroughly enjoying herself.
What was magical was that both sides ended their respective battles at the same time.
Inside the room, pulling up his pants and tidying his clothes, Xu Xi smiled knowingly at the messy scene and the abundant spoils of war.
Because he had clearly achieved brilliant and unparalleled results in this battle.
In ancient times, three heroes fought Lu Bu; now, Xu Xi consecutively conquered three women.
"Could it be that I'm truly a genius in this regard?"
He couldn't help but give himself a thumbs-up, then put away the formation, pushed open the door, and then saw Tang Wan, whose clothes were a bit disheveled, standing in the distance.
Her face was slightly red, and on the ground in front of Xu Xi's wooden house, there was a puddle of water, highly suspicious.
"No way, no way, they could even play like this?"
"Could it be that my knowledge is still shallow?"
As an experienced driver, Xu Xi immediately thought of things in another way when he saw the situation.
He looked at Tang Wan with a strange gaze, not wanting to make her too embarrassed, and then pretended as if nothing had happened, saying,
"Elder Tang is truly dedicated to her duty, but it's just a sect's Heavenly Chosen. Does she need your constant protection?"
As soon as the words left his mouth, as if testing her, or perhaps actively finding an excuse for Tang Wan, Xu Xi had grasped Tang Wan's mindset.
"The growth of a sect's genius is crucial to the future development of our sect, so it naturally warrants such a fuss."
Hearing Xu Xi's words, Tang Wan's originally slightly red face gradually faded. In her panic, Tang Wan hadn't thought of how to phrase her response.
Xu Xi's words were like a drowning person clutching a lifesaver; Tang Wan immediately followed his lead.
At the same time, an undeniable look flashed across her face, as if to say, I didn't do anything bad just now.
However, Tang Wan thought she had hidden it well, but she didn't expect Xu Xi had seen right through her.
The taste of the sea, Xu Xi knew!
If Tang Wan had disappeared without a trace the moment Xu Xi opened the door, instead of presumptuously staying there,
Perhaps Xu Xi wouldn't have thought that far. One could only say that Tang Wan's self-esteem was her undoing.
"Ning Shuang? Hurry up and leave!"
"We've been delayed here for so long, and the things that need to be done haven't been completed."
Standing still, just thinking about how to explain and alleviate her embarrassment next.
Suddenly, Li Ning霜's figure appeared, but her movements were clearly not smooth. Her walking posture was swaying, as if she had a limp.
It was obvious that after a great battle, Li Ning霜 had lost thoroughly and had not achieved anything in any aspect.
But the sudden appearance of Li Ning霜 gave Tang Wan another reason to speak.
Without explanation, she walked forward, speaking undeniable words. Tang Wan instantly arrived beside Li Ning霜, took Li Ning霜's soft jade hand, and in an instant, they disappeared from the place, leaving no trace.
"She left quite quickly. I thought I could successfully take down Tang Wan this time."
"If there were five people, that would count as a small impart, right?"
"What a pity, heaven does not grant man's wishes."
Various expressions of regret flashed across his face. Xu Xi now truly felt that Xuan Ye, who came to ambush at the Spirit Stone Mine, deserved to die!
Otherwise, Xu Xi would already be enjoying another kind of pleasure.
"The more I think about it, the angrier I get!"
"It seems the matters on Xiaoyao Sect's side need to be expedited."
"I killed their First Direct Disciple; I estimate their Sect Leader will soon be unable to sit still."
A nameless surge of anger flashed and vanished in his heart. Speaking of Xuan Ye, Xu Xi immediately thought of the entanglement between Xuanjian Sect and Xiaoyao Sect.
The two sects were originally like fire and water. Now that the First Direct Disciple was dead, it further amplified the conflict.
Therefore, the matter of annihilating Xiaoyao Sect was urgent.
"After completing the battle with Li Ning霜, the system gave me a Profound Restoration Pill, which can temporarily boost my strength to Entering Profundity."
"At the same time, it condensed my divine sense, comparable to an Entering Profundity expert."
"Now, even if I face a Reaching the Profound expert, I have a chance to escape, so I don't need to worry about my safety for now."
After some thought, Xu Xi was still very considerate of his own safety.
Otherwise, dying too quickly would affect Xu Xi's battle time. Xu Xi still wanted to have a few more intense battles with Ye Xueqing and the others.
"Even if Jiang Chengyun, the Sect Leader of Xiaoyao Sect, truly can't suppress that killing intent, I can still flee all the way."
"And within Xuanjian Sect, there is a inherited sect-protecting formation. If the other party wants to defeat it, it will take a month or so."
"The Juefeng Secret Realm is about to open; the other party will definitely not waste unnecessary energy on such matters."
"It's stable!"
"After the Juefeng Secret Realm, a mere old dog of the eighth realm will naturally not pose a threat to me."
His plans were very clear, step by step. Looking back at everything that happened since Xu Xi's transmigration, as well as the enemies he had made, Xu Xi found no aspect that could cause his demise.
He smiled contentedly, and then, he started to walk out with Zhao Yaqian. Arriving at Wangshi Dam, Xu Xi wanted to try if he could trigger another Strategy target.
But obviously, the system did not grant Xu Xi's wish.
Until nightfall, Xu Xi did not receive any system prompts.
Thinking about it, it made sense. The system had already given him two Strategy targets in a row; Xu Xi wanting a third was perhaps a bit greedy..."You're back. The sect elders have already arrived, but you might not have expected who came. It's Elder Zhuge from Law Enforcement Peak who personally came."
"I also didn't expect that this matter would even alarm him."
Xu Xi and Zhao Yaqian had just returned from Wangshi Dam, while Ye Xueqing had been waiting outside early.
Seeing their figures, she immediately went forward and told them this news.
As she spoke, Ye Xueqing's words revealed surprise, clearly awed by Zhuge Zhengwo's arrival.
"Elder Zhuge?"
"He actually came, I really didn't expect it."
"But... if he came, Xun Ya should be with him, right?"
Ye Xueqing's words reached Xu Xi's ears, and in an instant, Xu Xi was also stunned. He hadn't expected that Zhuge Zhengwo would actually come.
However, after a careful thought, Xun Ya had once appeared in the Spirit Stone Mine, and Xu Xi suddenly found it reasonable.
Because Xun Ya would certainly inform Zhuge Zhengwo of all such matters.
And such news was enough to alarm the other party.
