The few female disciples were chattering like orioles. Their faces were full of joy as they looked here and there, especially at the rouge and face powder. On the other hand, Zhan Ruxue, Xiao Yang and the rest were not very interested.
As a result, the few female disciples restrained themselves. However, their hearts were still full of anticipation and excitement. They were even discussing how they would come down to play after resting.
"Let's rest in this inn. We will continue our journey tomorrow morning. We are very close to our destination. There is still half a day's journey."
Zhan Ruxue pointed at the inn in front of them and instructed.
The group entered the inn and chose their own rooms.
Basically, the male disciples were resting in the inn. Only the few female disciples did not seem to have enough fun and wanted to continue going out. Considering their safety, they found a few male disciples who were on good terms with them. Of course, this did not include Xiao Yang.
In the room, Xiao Yang sat on the bed with his eyes closed. Under his seventh level Martial Arts Grandmaster divine sense, neither the enemy nor himself could escape his detection. On the way here, it seemed to be peaceful. However, he noticed that someone was secretly spying on him.
That person was only a Martial Arts Grandmaster and was not a cause for concern.
Just as Xiao Yang was about to retract his divine sense, he sensed that the Martial Arts Grandmaster was heading straight for him. This immediately piqued Xiao Yang's interest.
He continued to observe and saw that after the spy entered the inn, he asked for a room. That room was next to Xiao Yang's and was right next to Xiao Yang's room.
The spy went upstairs. When he passed by Xiao Yang's door, he slowed down slightly as if he wanted to sense something. However, he did not find anything and entered his own room.
"Interesting, interesting."
Xiao Yang narrowed his eyes. He only felt that it was interesting.
If the enemy does not move, I will not move. I want to see what the other party has up his sleeve.
After sitting quietly for a while, he sensed that the other party had left and was already at the door. Then, he went to Xiao Yang's room and knocked on the door.
Xiao Yang pretended to be ignorant and asked faintly, "Who is it?"
The scout outside the door took a deep breath and immediately put on a smiling face. He said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist, I'm a rogue cultivator. I just happen to have a business deal with you. You'll definitely be interested."
Xiao Yang's lips curled into a mocking smile.
The other party actually wanted to use this kind of reason to worm their way into being friends with him. It seemed that the other party's brain was still quite bright.
He replied coldly, "What deal? I didn't contact anyone to make a deal. You can leave now. Otherwise, I'll call for help. "
The spy's expression was clearly stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Xiao Yang wouldn't fall for his trick. He could only immediately change his method and opened his mouth again. "Fellow Daoist, as the saying goes, even if a business deal doesn't work out, you still have to be benevolent and righteous. Why do you have to keep people a thousand miles away? I won't hide it from Fellow Daoist. I see that Fellow Daoist only needs a little bit of luck to break through to the Sixth Stage Martial Master. And I just happen to be able to help Fellow Daoist. Why don't Fellow Daoist take a look? "
Xiao Yang thought to himself. The identity he was pretending to be was indeed only a Sixth Stage Martial Master. This made him a little worried. If the other party wanted to mess around, it would be a little troublesome.
He coldly said, "You investigated me?"
Actually, this was nonsense. The other party's every move fell into Xiao Yang's eyes. Naturally, there was no doubt about it. However, from the point of view of a Sixth Stage Martial Master, it was necessary to raise doubts.
He heard the scout outside the door say, "Fellow Daoist, this isn't important. What's important is that I have the Promotion Pill you need. If you're not interested, I'll immediately turn around and leave."
In fact, this scout really wanted to come in and communicate with Xiao Yang. However, things had already reached this point. If he didn't tactfully retreat, it would be suspicious. He also knew how to control himself.
Xiao Yang hesitated for a moment, wondering if he should let him in.
If he let him in and the other party made a move, should he resist? Or should he resist?
One had to know that he was only pretending to be an outer disciple of the Heavenly Sect. He was only a Sixth Stage Martial Master. This cultivation was nothing in front of a Martial Ancestor.
After hesitating for a moment, Xiao Yang secretly contacted Zhan Ruxue. After confirming that the other party would come over in a moment, he heaved a sigh of relief.
In fact, with Xiao Yang's Seventh Stage Martial Ancestor cultivation, dealing with this scout would be as easy as flipping his hand. However, now was not the time to reveal his identity. In the Heavenly Sect, Liu Datai and Liu Xiaochong had forced him to reveal his true identity. In the Flame City, they were also forcing him to reveal his identity.
No matter what, Xiao Yang could not reveal his true identity. Not to mention that he would be hunted down by the Heavenly Sect, just the matter of saving his master's wife was enough to convince him to continue hiding.
"Come in."
Xiao Yang softly said.
The scout pushed open the door and entered. Once he entered, he hurriedly cupped his fists at Xiao Yang and put on a friendly look. In reality, his gaze lingered on Xiao Yang many times, as if he wanted to thoroughly investigate Xiao Yang's cultivation.
"Fellow cultivator, I presume that you are interested in my Promotion Pill?" The scout smiled and released the aura of a profiteer.
Xiao Yang pointed to a chair. The scout thanked him and sat down.
"Speak, what do you want? Where is the pill? "
Xiao Yang asked straightforwardly.
The scout's eyes darted around and he smiled, "Fellow cultivator, this is a simple deal. As long as you are willing to work for the Liu Family for seven days, the Liu Family will naturally give you a Promotion Pill."
So this was the Liu Family's plan.
Xiao Yang frowned slightly. With his superficial cultivation, once he entered the Liu Family, wouldn't he become meat on the chopping board and be at their mercy?
Hmph.
Naturally, he couldn't let their evil plan succeed.
"You don't even have the pill, and you still have the nerve to come in and make a deal with me. Scram, I'm not interested."
Xiao Yang flatly rejected. He was very decisive and did not leave any room for negotiation.
As the saying goes, 'to gain something without risking anything'. This was referring to people like the scout. How could he trick someone into going to the Liu Family without paying anything?
The scout did not expect Xiao Yang to turn hostile so quickly. Although he did not come with good intentions, at least he did not reveal any flaws so far.
Now that the deal had failed, he did not want to miss this good opportunity. He hesitated for a moment and his eyes darted around. His expression immediately became ferocious and fearful. His aura also suddenly changed and he released the aura of a Martial Ancestor.
He heard him say, "You have to agree whether you want to or not. The Liu Family's business is not something you can reject just because you want to. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for letting me in. How can you, a sixth-stage Martial Master, fight with me? Why don't you obediently surrender? Otherwise, you will suffer physical pain. "
The scout spoke fiercely and directly raised his hand to attack Xiao Yang.
Both of them were in the room. As long as they did not make a big commotion, the scout was confident that he could deal with any trouble. After all, the Liu Family was powerful in Flame City. The inn did not dare to ask for the person. Even if Zhan Ruxue dared to ask for the person, the Liu Family would not hand him over.
