"Save me!" Zhang Shucheng faced the storm outside the temple, his face full of fear. He slowly turned his head to look at Miao Yi.
"Speak! Who ordered you to do this? "Miao Yi grabbed the spear with one arm, piercing the other as he asked coldly.
Even an ant was greedy for life. At this point, Zhang Shucheng naturally grasped a sliver of hope. He breathed heavily and said, "It was Xiong Xiao. It was Mountain Chieftain Xiong Xiao who ordered me to do this."
"I had long suspected it was him, but I had only met him a few times. We barely spoke, and there was no grudge between us. Why would he do this to me?"
"I don't know. I really don't know … Miao Yi, save me, save me!"
"You still dare to hide it at this point?"
"I really don't know. He didn't tell me. I also want to know why he is targeting you. Save me, I beg you … "
Pu! Miao Yi suddenly pulled out his spear and kicked Zhang Shucheng away. At the same time, the silver spear in his hand shot out, piercing through the other party's head and nailing Zhang Shucheng to the stone pillar under the temple's eaves.
Miao Yi slowly walked to the side of the stone pillar and reached out to grab the end of the spear. He said calmly, "I can't save your injury. I might as well give you a quick death!"
The few people in the temple looked at each other.
The hand holding the end of the spear waved and pulled it out. Zhang Shucheng's corpse slid to the ground, half of his body hanging under the stone corridor. The water under the eaves carried his blood away.
The spear slowly extended out of the eaves, allowing the rainwater to wash away the blood on the spear. Under the flickering lightning, the silver spear shone with a cold light.
Miao Yi stared expressionlessly at the spear being washed away by the rain. He was trying to figure out what went wrong. He really couldn't understand why Xiong Xiao wanted to kill him. What should he do in the future when he encountered someone of such status and cultivation who wanted to deal with him?
In the middle of the night, the rolling thunder in the night sky gradually weakened until there was no more movement. The sound of wind and rain also gradually weakened. The flickering flames in the main hall began to stabilize. In the end, only the dripping sound from the eaves outside could be heard between heaven and earth.
The dark clouds in the night sky gradually parted, and the chirping of the insects in the surroundings began to rise and fall. The moon peeked out from behind the dark clouds, revealing a bashful face. The moonlight shone on Miao Yi's face, causing him to move slightly despite his silence.
The rain has stopped? Under the eaves, Miao Yi snapped out of his thoughts. He sheathed his spear and raised his head, looking up at the bright moon in the night sky.
However, there was a bone-piercing chill that gradually permeated the temple. The chirping of the insects that had not been around for long also came to an abrupt halt. The horses that were tied to the veranda in the courtyard also squeezed and scattered uneasily, as though they were very afraid.
Miao Yi sensed that something was amiss. He quickly invoked his transcendence vision and scanned his surroundings. Immediately, he saw black mist swirling around the temple.
Ghost Qi!
Miao Yi's heart skipped a beat as he thought of something in this area. 'This is bad. I can't be this unlucky, right?' He had just killed two of his' helpers', and that thing was about to appear?
He wanted to leave immediately, but thinking that there were still a few people inside, he quickly ran in. "The rain has stopped, you guys should leave here quickly!"
In the end, what made him speechless was that everyone, including the Lady Boss, looked at him in fear. They huddled together and said in a trembling voice, "Great Deity, don't kill us."
"Why would I kill you for no reason? I can't thank you enough for reminding me. " Miao Yi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Now was not the time to talk nonsense. He directly threatened, "There might be some unclean things here. You guys should leave quickly."
The Lady Boss was like a little girl. She stirred her dress with her index fingers and asked weakly, "What unclean things?"
Miao Yi glared and said, "Ghosts!"
The few of them seemed to be shocked. The Lady Boss was even more exaggerated. She was so scared that she covered her mouth with both hands. With a frightened expression, she asked, "Is what the Great Deity said true? But this is the wilderness. Add to that the heavy rain, the mountain roads are muddy. It won't be easy for us to walk in the dark! "
Miao Yi had to hand it to her. Even at this time, she was so scared, and yet she could still think that it would be difficult to walk in the dark on a rainy day.
Miao Yi couldn't be bothered with her. He grabbed her hand and dragged her out. "Don't take any other random things. Take the important things with you. Including me, there are six of us. There are four horses here. Don't bother with the one carrying the goods. As for the remaining three, two people will ride on one. Let's leave this place as soon as possible."
"Great Immortal is right, but …" The Lady Boss furrowed her brows and said hesitantly, "But I'm a woman of a pure family, how can I ride and ride with another man? If word gets out, how am I supposed to face the world?"
Miao Yi was speechless. He couldn't help but look her up and down. He thought to himself, 'You're wearing such revealing clothes. You're even more daring than the prostitutes in the brothel. You're a woman of a pure family. I don't know where your man should go to cry.'
Of course, he only thought about these words in his heart. He dragged her outside and immediately stuffed a rein into her hands. He said, "You ride one by yourself. I have some strength in my legs. I won't be slower than you guys. Let's go!"
"But I don't know how to ride a horse. What if I fall?" The Lady Boss said weakly. Her subordinates had already rushed out.
At this time, the dark clouds in the sky had completely dissipated. The bright moonlight shone on the vast land.
Miao Yi looked at her speechlessly. He could already faintly feel the Yin energy in the temple getting thicker and thicker under the evaporation of the moonlight. He shook his head helplessly and said, "Then choose someone you like to ride with! Anyway, let's leave this place first. Don't think too much about other things for now. "
The Lady Boss reluctantly said, "Oh." She glanced at him and said, "Then I'll ride with the Great Deity! I'm timid. Following the Great Deity gives me a sense of security. "
As soon as she said this, Miao Yi, who was holding the reins, subconsciously held onto the saddle and steadied himself. The other party had just said that she was a woman of a pure family. It wasn't good for her to ride with another man. In the blink of an eye, she directly picked on him. Miao Yi thought to himself, 'I was worried that if word got out, I wouldn't be able to keep my chastity.'
Actually, he was a little embarrassed now. He had never ridden a horse with a woman before, especially such a beautiful woman.
The Lady Boss saw his figure swaying as he steadied himself on the saddle. She couldn't help but roll her eyes, thinking, 'Am I that scary? Other men can't even beg for it. Why are you pretending to be so serious? '
Miao Yi felt that now wasn't the time to worry about such trifles. He decisively threw the two reins that he had untied to the other four people. He then took the one in the Lady Boss' hands and said anxiously, "Let's do this! Everyone, do as I said and quickly leave this place. "
The four people looked at the Lady Boss with a strange expression, as though asking, 'Lady Boss, are you sure you want to do this? Ride with him?'
The Lady Boss clearly knew what the four of them were thinking. She quickly glared at them and pointed at Miao Yi's back, who was leading the horse down the stairs. She opened her mouth and made an 'O' shape. He could vaguely make out that she was teasing him.
