After parting with Ming Zhen, Nie Li returned to the inn and went straight to his room. He knew that the Earth Dragon Fruit was about to ripen. Therefore, he put all his energy into practicing his cultivation technique.
A few days passed. Nie Li didn't care about what was happening outside and only focused on practicing. Only when he heard someone talking did he wake up from his deep consciousness.
Mo Xiaotou stood beside him, talking non-stop. "You're finally awake." Mo Xiaotou saw Nie Li open his eyes and heaved a sigh of relief. Actually, he was frightened by Nie Li's abnormal state while he was practicing.
His whole body was covered in black fog, and his killing intent and baleful aura made people feel infinite fear. Especially when he opened his eyes just now. If he wasn't mistaken, those eyes were pitch black.
"What's wrong?" In the past few days, Nie Li's strength had stabilized at the late-stage Houtian realm. Moreover, the speed of his internal energy growth was somewhat terrifying. If he hadn't deliberately suppressed it, it was possible for him to break through to the consummate Houtian realm.
Although becoming stronger was something he hoped for, Nie Li didn't think that he was a genius to break through to the next realm in such a short time. Therefore, he suspected that it was a problem with his cultivation technique.
Ever since he broke through to the mid-stage Houtian realm, Nie Li discovered that every time he circulated his internal energy, an evil force would gradually invade his sea of consciousness, trying to turn him into a killing machine.
If it wasn't for Ming Zhen's help, Nie Li was really worried that he would have committed murder on the streets. Although that kind of crazy thought would increase his battle strength by a lot.
However, Nie Li didn't want to become an emotionless monster that only knew how to kill. Therefore, he suspected that his cultivation method had undergone some changes due to the blood array the last time he was in.
However, Nie Li wouldn't ask Ming Zhen for help. Although he was grateful to Ming Zhen, deep down, he didn't agree with Ming Zhen's words. However, everyone had their own thoughts, and it wasn't something he could change with just a few words.
"The Ye Family and the Bai Family actually brought forward the wedding. It's in three days." Mo Xiaotou pulled a chair and sat opposite Nie Li. At this moment, Nie Li was still sitting cross-legged on the bed.
"I know," Nie Li said calmly. Last time, Bai Jian told him that he would ask the Bai Family to bring forward the wedding. However, he didn't expect it to be brought forward so early. It seemed that something was going to happen soon.
"How did you know?" Little Head Mo looked at Nie Li suspiciously. All the information Nie Li knew was provided by him. In White Mountain City, he didn't know many people. Where could he find people to gather information?
"Don't ask too many questions. I will tell you when the time comes." Nie Li still chose to keep it a secret. He still hasn't obtained any useful information, so it's better not to tell Little Head Mo, so as not to confuse him.
"Alright!" Little Mo didn't want to get to the bottom of it. "I'm going out for a bit. If I get any useful information, I'll let you know." Nie Li's tone was a little slow.
"You be careful. The city has not been peaceful recently. The Iron Chain Gang and the Righteous Manor have gathered at the entrance of the White Mountain City. They have a lot of people. Obviously, they are determined to win this time." Young Head Mo knew about the grudge between Nie Li and the Iron Chain Gang. It could be said that it was a grudge between Nie Li and Wei Wuyou.
"At that time, he came from the Cloud Sea City. Now, I naturally have to settle the score with him." Nie Li chuckled. At that time, he killed several people from the Righteous Manor in the Cloud Sea City. Those people might have come to Wei Wuyou to report this matter. Most of the people from the Iron Chain Gang were taken away. The remaining people were also instigated by Wang Huaili.
"There is a person beside Wei Wuyou. You have to be careful." Little Head Mo seemed to have thought of something. When he stood up and was about to leave, he suddenly turned back and said.
"Who?" Little Head Mo's face didn't look good. Nie Li knew that this person must have something to do with him. "Wang Wen." Little Head Mo said a name, but Nie Li was a little confused. He didn't seem to know this person.
"Wang Huaili has two subordinates, Wang Wen and Wang Wu. The one who died in the Cloud Sea City was Wang Wu. Wang Wen and Wang Wu are brothers. Since his brother died in your hands, he will definitely take revenge. Moreover, this Wang Wen is already Wei Wuyou's think tank. This person's shrewdness and mentality can't be underestimated. "After Little Head Mo finished speaking, he warned a few more times and left.
Nie Li sat on the bed and didn't rush to get up. Wang Wen, he didn't expect that Wang Huaili's flag was so big. He instigated the Iron Chain Gang and planted a spy. Now that he thought about it, Wei Wuyou and Zhang Junshi were still lacking compared to Wang Huaili.
The two of them placed themselves in the chessboard. If it wasn't for Wang Huaili coveting the power of the blood array, he would have become the biggest player and Nie Li might not have survived.
Now that Wang Huaili has escaped, Wang Wen might know his whereabouts. It just so happens that he needs to face the Iron Chain Gang. He might as well see if Wang Wen can bring him some surprises. Nie Li really wanted to kill Wang Huaili.
Nie Li got up, tidied up his clothes, and walked out of the room. Nie Li keenly saw that the door of the house in the corridor was closed in an instant. That seemed to be the residence of the Heavenly Sound Valley. Who was it? Was it warm?
Nie Li took a deep look at her, then turned and left. Just as he went downstairs, the door of the house was opened. Wen Xinya followed closely behind Nie Li and left. Wen Xinya didn't know that after she left, another person quietly followed.
When Nie Li went downstairs, he saw Wen Xinya's body. He knew that Wen Xinya must have something to tell him. Moreover, the two of them were in a cooperative relationship. Nie Li was prepared to use his information in exchange for Wen Xinya's help. The other party probably wouldn't refuse.
Nie Li deliberately slowed down his footsteps. Wen Xinya quickly caught up with him. The two of them walked down the stairs side by side. "Noon, on the mountain peak in the western suburbs outside the city. Someone from the Heavenly Sound Valley is following me. I have to get rid of this little tail."
Wen Xinya was proficient in assassination and naturally understood tracking and anti-tracking very well. The little tail behind them obviously didn't have good tracking skills and was quickly discovered.
"Okay." Nie Li inadvertently raised his eyes and followed Wen Xinya's gaze. He saw Qin Xiaoyou, who was hiding. She was really stupid! Someone would definitely find out if they followed her like this.
Nie Li looked at Qin Xiaoyou's silly look and couldn't help but reveal a smile. Perhaps he saw her in her. This smile was seen by Wen Xinya. "Why? Have you taken a fancy to Junior Sister Qin?" Wen Xinya teased.
Nie Li looked at her carefully. He didn't know which was the real her. She was clearly a gentle senior sister in front of the people in the Heavenly Sound Valley. In front of outsiders, she was a strong protector. In front of him, she had changed into another person.
"No, I just find it funny," Nie Li answered casually. Liking a person was never that simple. Towards Qin Xiaoyou, the most he had was just concern. If he were to talk about feelings, then perhaps it was because their eyes were too similar.
"But I think your smile isn't as simple as being funny." Wen Xinya continued to ask, blinking rapidly and constantly making eyes at Nie Li. However, Nie Li felt that she was doing it on purpose for someone to see.
"Sometimes, it's not a good thing to be as understanding as you. It's too tiring. " Nie Li knew that Wen Xinya was teasing Qin Xiaoyou. Obviously, the latter didn't notice and was still hiding in the dark, secretly watching.
"But if one can't be clear about it, wouldn't it be a waste to die?" Wen Xinya quietly lowered her head. At an angle that Qin Xiaoyou couldn't see, but where Nie Li could see, she once again revealed her sharp fangs.
Was this the awareness of an assassin? "It's just a little similar. She reminds me of someone." Nie Li's voice wasn't as clear and gentle as before. It was filled with gloominess and sadness. This made Wen Xinya a little surprised. Looking at Nie Li's calm eyes, other than the coldness, there was only an imperceptible tenderness left.
"Senior Sister Qin Xinyin!" Wen Xinya suddenly said. Nie Li stopped in his tracks. His left foot paused for a moment before he lifted it and stepped onto the next step.
"No," Nie Li said casually, but he had already quickened his pace. Wen Xinya looked at Nie Li's back and revealed a mysterious smile. Nie Li didn't want to look. He didn't know what kind of expression Wen Xinya would look at him with. Mockery or contempt.
She would mock him for coveting Qin Xinyin and despise him for not being worthy of liking that person. Walking down the stairs, Nie Li walked straight out of the inn. Wen Xinya found a table and Qin Xiaoyou watched as Nie Li and Wen Xinya chatted and laughed.
Thinking back to a few days ago when her Senior Sister asked her about Nie Li, she must have feelings for Nie Li! Thinking of this, Qin Xiaoyou's face darkened and she ran back into the house.
Seeing Qin Xiaoyou sneak away, Wen Xinya followed behind Nie Li. Just as Wen Xinya left, Qin Xiaoyou walked out of the house and realized that Wen Xinya was no longer in the hall. She had a bad feeling.
"Xiaoyou, what's wrong?" Lin Lin also walked out of the house and stretched. Her curvaceous figure was immediately exposed, but no one could see it.
"Nothing. Hurry up and practice. The Earth Dragon Fruit will ripen soon." Qin Xiaoyou pushed Lin Lin into the house. When she turned around and closed the door, a trace of sadness flashed across her eyes.
White Mountain City was surrounded by mountains on three sides. Nie Li walked out of the west gate and saw towering mountains. He walked along the mountain path to the top of the mountain. Although the sun was already overhead, it was still relatively cold on the mountain.
The mountain wind constantly blew, causing Nie Li's clothes and hair to flutter. Looking down at White Mountain City, the mountains in the distance were like huge dragons that surrounded the mountain city.
What kind of world was behind the mountains? Was it also this blue sky? Were the people there also looking at the white clouds like him?
* Whoosh * A strong wind blew. Nie Li hurriedly turned around and the green python twisted around his arms.
However, his palms also stopped. In front of him was Wen Xinya. Her hand was less than an inch away from his throat.
Nie Li's forehead was covered in cold sweat. He was too engrossed just now and did not notice Wen Xinya. Moreover, the other party's ability to control her aura was also very strong.
"If I wanted to kill you, you would already be dead." Wen Xinya retracted her hand. The internal force in Nie Li's arms dissipated and his hands returned to their original jade-like appearance. Nie Li did not speak. He did not know what Wen Xinya's intention was.
"Is this the Bai Family's Green Python Poison Palm? It's a pity that you seem to have forgotten the word poison. "" Martial arts are just moves. How to use them depends on the martial artist's heart. "
"This time, I want you to help me kill someone." Nie Li looked straight at Wen Xinya.
"Let's see who you kill and how much you pay." Wen Xinya did not back down.
"Iron Chain Gang and Righteous Manor. As for the reward, there is no need." Nie Li finished speaking.
The mountain wind whistled. Their voices were drowned in the wild wind and nothing could be heard.
