76: another day……
"Then let's stop here for today. Another day, I'll make sure Elder Tang gets a good lesson in my riding skills."
"Today, I was fighting two against one, and I felt a little overwhelmed."
Seeing Ling Ning霜's head, which had just been lowered, lifted again by Tang Wan, Xu Xi's momentary pleasure suddenly vanished.
He cleaned up the battlefield and prepared to leave.
The events of today were like a roller coaster, full of ups and downs, and Xu Xi didn't want to stay in the same place.
Bai Xingyu's lonely grave still stood there. At this point, Xu Xi didn't need to continue fighting all night with Tang Wan and the others.
Perhaps, starting a battle in a different location would be a good choice.
"Then forget it, but... you still need to work harder."
"I'm not very impressed with your combat power, little brother, you need to work harder ~"
Seeing Xu Xi pull up his pants and act like he didn't know her, Tang Wan looked at Xu Xi's lower region with a playful expression.
Her finger pointed to the protruding part of Xu Xi that had not yet receded, making Xu Xi instantly throw away his armor and abandon his weapons... "What!?
"You said Xu Xi already went to Thin Horse Gate? Why are you only telling me now!"
"A bunch of good-for-nothings, what's the use of keeping you?"
At Xuanjian Sect, in the Hall of Offerings, Wang Hengtian was in his separate courtyard. Upon hearing the report from a subordinate disciple, he immediately flew into a rage.
Casually throwing and smashing some items on the table, Wang Hengtian completely lost his composure.
He had intended to have his subordinates keep an eye on Xu Xi to know his movements and plan his next step.
But what Wang Hengtian never expected was that his subordinates were so incompetent that they couldn't even detect Xu Xi's movements and only gave him concrete information so late.
Wasn't this trying to make Wang Hengtian jump into a pit?
"Useless!"
"Slap!"
Another roar, followed by a slap. How could Wang Hengtian vent his anger by just smashing inanimate objects?
Without exception, all those miscellaneous disciples were slapped hard, and then Wang Hengtian ordered them to get out, leaving Wang Hengtian alone in the hall to calm his chaotic emotions.
"Bai Luo!"
"It must have been that bitch who told Xu Xi about it."
"No, I have to take down that bitch first. Strike while the iron is hot."
"Then, even if Xu Xi really finds out something, it won't be related to me."
Sitting in his armchair, a flash of inspiration suddenly struck Wang Hengtian, and he thought of the key person in this incident—Bai Luo.
Wang Hengtian believed that as long as this key person was dealt with, Xu Xi would naturally not go against him.
The sect's Law Enforcement Peak would care about a mere inner court disciple, but they absolutely couldn't invest too much effort into Xu Xi, a Personal Disciple.
Realizing that he couldn't cause trouble for himself, Xu Xi definitely wouldn't come looking for trouble with him.
"By the way... I'll also clear away the frustration I've accumulated these past few days. Bai Luo, you can't escape my grasp!"
He quickly stood up, his face, which had just been full of anger, now showed a lewd smile, gradually twisting into an unusual arc.
Walking out, Wang Hengtian's steps carried a breeze, but that breeze carried a disgusting emotion.
However, he left quickly, and Wang Hengtian, who went quickly, returned just as quickly.
And after returning, the lewdness that had appeared on his face was replaced by anger, even deeper than before, having already turned from green to purple.
"Ye Xueqing, Ye Xueqing!"
"Why is it her again?"
"She and Xu Xi took down Teng Nuo together before. She probably even used her life-saving trump card. Are you really protecting Xu Xi that much?"
"Damn it, are you a simp?"
"Simps don't die well!"
One curse after another spewed from Wang Hengtian's mouth, which showed that Wang Hengtian's idea of finding Bai Luo was clearly interrupted by Ye Xueqing.
Before Xu Xi left, he had taken Bai Luo to Elder Peak, where Ye Xueqing and the others looked after her. Even if Xu Xi left, and Ye Xueqing and the others were inconvenient to stay on Elder Peak, Bai Luo could only appear in two places.
Either Ye Xueqing's separate courtyard, or Zhao Yaqian's room.
Other than that, Bai Luo could absolutely not reside anywhere else in the sect.
Because both Ye Xueqing and Zhao Yaqian knew how wild Xu Xi could be.
When Xu Xi returned, he would probably directly call a few people for a joyful foursome.
Rather than that, it was better to directly keep Bai Luo by their side. That way, they could know themselves and their enemy, and thus win every battle.
Moreover, Ye Xueqing and Zhao Yaqian also had a lot of fun with this little girl, Bai Luo.
She was too easy to bully. This girl was teased every day. Xu Xi felt happy, and Ye Xueqing and Zhao Yaqian also gained happiness. This, oh, is called double happiness.
"No, I absolutely cannot sit idly by!"
"Since Bai Luo can't be dealt with, I'll have to find another way."
"Otherwise, when Xu Xi returns and learns something else from Thin Horse Gate, I might escape major crimes, but a accumulation of minor offenses would be enough to get me into serious trouble."
Gradually venting his emotions, Wang Hengtian's mind cleared, and he understood his current predicament.
And Wang Hengtian would never sit idly by. Bai Luo was well protected, so Wang Hengtian would find another way. Xu Xi always had weaknesses.
"First, I'll go to Thin Horse Gate to check the situation. If Xu Xi is slow, perhaps I can deal with everything before he leaves."
On second thought, a considerable amount of time had passed since Xu Xi left. However, Wang Hengtian also assumed that Xu Xi's cultivation was only at the Spirit Refinement stage. Although Zhu Fengyu, the current leader of Thin Horse Gate, was only a Spirit Refinement master according to Wang Hengtian's intelligence, he was still inferior to Teng Nuo.
But Wang Hengtian absolutely refused to believe that a gang that had operated in Tingfeng Valley for decades would be tamed by a mere young boy like Xu Xi.
Perhaps Xu Xi could throw his weight around by relying on the name of Xuanjian Sect, but don't forget, Thin Horse Gate took orders from the Hall of Offerings, not the Great Elder.
In the factional struggle, the people of Thin Horse Gate knew what to do.
Immediately, he left the separate courtyard in a hurry again. Even though it was late at night, Wang Hengtian still disregarded everything.
After multiple inspections by the guard disciples, he finally left Xuanjian Sect safely, departing from Luo Ya Town at the foot of Xuanjian Sect mountain, and heading towards Tingfeng Valley... "Still hasn't appeared. Has Xu Xi been staying in Xuanjian Sect all this time... like a shrinking turtle?"
"Could it be that he already knew that after killing Xuan Ye, he would be retaliated against by our Xiaoyao Sect?"
"Or, are there also spies within Xiaoyao Sect who already know I've arrived?"
"No... impossible!"
"I left suddenly, and even Chengyun didn't notice. How could those internal spies know that I've already arrived at Luo Ya Town?"
Luo Ya Town is located not far from the foot of Xuanjian Sect mountain. This place has always been where Xuanjian Sect interacted with the outside world.
Merchants of all sizes have also settled here, and even more so, sects friendly with Xuanjian Sect have established branches here to communicate with Xuanjian Sect, much like modern embassies.
Meanwhile, a white-haired old man with disheveled clothes was talking to a bright moon on the roof of a certain tavern.
He watched the movements of everyone in Luo Ya Town, muttering to himself. If anyone could hear the old man's words, they might be astonished beyond measure by his arrogance.
Only Liu Xuanfeng, the Great Elder of Xiaoyao Sect, would dare to address the sect leader of Xiaoyao Sect by the name "Chengyun".
