"Tsk tsk! I wonder how much he can earn in a year with this exclusive business. "Miao Yi sighed.
"I don't know exactly how much she earns, but I heard that Lady Boss goes to the Great Devil Sky every year to deliver cultivation resources to the imprisoned Feng Xuan. Sigh! Feng Xuan's decision to find this woman was worth it. The tens of thousands of years that he was imprisoned here could be considered a period of closed-door cultivation. In any case, it didn't affect his cultivation at all. Who knows, he might even be able to come out and reunite with her one day. On the other hand, this woman was the one who had to go out and make connections all by herself. I heard that when the Tempest Tavern first started, it wasn't all that smooth. After all, it wasn't easy for everyone to accept the rules set up by the Tempest Tavern. The Lady Boss had a hard time keeping things going. She had to think of all sorts of ways to force the entire cultivation world to accept the rules set up by the Tempest Tavern. Because of that, she gained the respect of many, "Pi Junzi said.
Everything is difficult at the beginning! Miao Yi nodded. He now had a new understanding of the Lady Boss. No wonder the Lady Boss, Chef, and the others didn't want to talk about the past. She actually had such an unbearable past.
The area in front of them was becoming more and more desolate. There were no longer any houses in sight. The riders had already run out of the area where the people of Flowing Clouds Dune Sea were gathered.
Miao Yi braced himself and cautiously scanned his surroundings, then transmitted his voice over to the two of them, "You two shouldn't have come on this trip. There might be danger. If you really do come across them, don't worry about anything else. Just remember one thing — run!"
Tao Yongchun replied nonchalantly, "What danger could there possibly be? The two of us are poor, and no one would even bother to make a move on poor people like us. As long as we lower our heads and suffer a little, we'll be fine in Flowing Clouds Dune Sea."
Pi Junzi grunted in agreement. It was obvious that the two of them had already gotten used to life in Flowing Clouds Dune Sea.
Miao Yi scolded, "I am not joking with you two. If I were to really encounter trouble, I might not even be able to protect myself. I might not even be able to take care of you two."
Putting aside the fact that he was being targeted, he didn't even want to bring up the matter of the Netherdragon Ship. As soon as he found the Netherdragon Ship, it would be time to silence them.
Tao Yongchun said, "Don't worry. With Pi Junzi around, there won't be too much danger."
Seeing him speak so confidently. Miao Yi was a little taken aback. "What do you mean?"
"Have you forgotten Pi Junzi's biggest trespass? Dig a hole! " Tao Yongchun said with a smile, "To him, the sand is like a game. When we encounter trouble, we can just burrow into the sand. Bai Ziliang didn't know that we were here, and we didn't have any grudges against others. No one would go all out to make life difficult for us. Every time we encounter trouble, we get through it like this. We've long since gotten used to danger. "
Miao Yi tilted his head to look at Lidded Gentleman. The Rat Spirit grinned.
Perhaps it was because good words didn't work, and bad words came true as soon as they left their mouths. The group looked around vigilantly, but they didn't see anyone approaching. However, just as they approached a sand dune in front of them, two black-clothed men suddenly jumped out from behind the sand dune. One of them held a pair of half-melon-shaped axes. One of them wielded two swords and blocked the group's path.
They were none other than Peony's assassins, Flowing Cloud and Flowing Sand.
Everyone was shocked. Miao Yi's pupils shrank as he realized that the two of them were staring right at him. He decisively transmitted his voice over and ordered, "Go around!"
He still hoped that his judgment was wrong. He hoped that it wasn't coming for him. He hoped that it would be fine if he avoided it. Don't get too close.
The deputy immediately waved his hand and gestured. He led the cavalry in front and quickly changed their direction.
Whoosh whoosh! Flowing Cloud waved his hands left and right, and two flying swords instantly sliced through the air. They went straight for Miao Yi.
Flowing Sand, wielding both axes, flew close to the ground, while Flowing Cloud quickly followed suit.
Judging from the faint blue glow of the transcendent artifacts, they were only two Second Grade Transcendent Artifacts. After all, not everyone could afford to use a Third Grade Transcendent Artifact.
They were two Red Lotus experts! Everyone was shocked.
The Loose Cultivators of Flowing Clouds Dune Sea immediately scattered in all directions, while the officials mixed in with them immediately attacked the ground, including Miao Yi. With the Qilin Spear in hand, he angrily smashed the ground, intending to dive into the sea.
"So it's Peony's assassins, Flowing Cloud and Flowing Sand. These two stayed at our tavern when they first came to Flowing Clouds Dune Sea. It's over! That Niu Er brat is finished. Their cultivations aren't on the same level at all! "The carpenter sighed.
The Lady Boss, the carpenter, and the stonemason had appeared on a sand dune not too far away. The Lady Boss's dress fluttered in the wind. Her graceful figure and graceful figure were very eye-catching.
The three of them had complicated expressions as they watched the scene unfold before them. They had always been neutral, so it wasn't appropriate for them to get involved in a dispute. As such, they could only watch on helplessly.
Flowing Cloud and Flowing Sand had their eyes on Miao Yi, but the carpenter had his eyes on the two of them. As soon as Miao Yi's group left, the carpenter and the other two followed behind. They wanted to see what the two of them were planning to do to Miao Yi.
In the end, they realized that the two of them didn't follow them all the way. Instead, after determining where Miao Yi's group was headed, they went around to intercept them. It was obvious that they didn't want to make a move in a crowded place, but they also didn't want to alarm Miao Yi's group. The Lady Boss and the other two followed behind the two of them.
Amidst the rain of sand being smashed by the thirty or so cultivators, Pi Junzi and Tao Yongchun nimbly dismounted from their horses. Holding hands, they quickly disappeared into the sand. Just as Tao Yongchun had said, Pi Junzi was very good at escaping on sand.
As soon as Miao Yi smashed his hand into the sand, he realized something was amiss. The sand was too soft. Unlike ordinary ground, it had a natural ability to absorb force. Without a powerful cultivation, it was impossible to penetrate through it. Even with thirty or so cultivators working together, they still couldn't penetrate the sand.
Only now did they understand why the Loose Cultivators had immediately fled in all directions.
The situation wasn't as they had thought. They wouldn't be able to escape from the pursuit of Red Lotus cultivators on their dragon steeds in this vast desert. That way, they would at least have a chance of survival. However, it would be even more difficult to escape by burrowing into the sand. That was why the Loose Cultivators had immediately chosen to flee in all directions, instead of foolishly acting like Miao Yi and the others.
The Loose Cultivators had been here for a long time, so they clearly knew the situation better than Miao Yi's group. Because they lacked experience in this place, they immediately fell into a dangerous situation.
As soon as Miao Yi dismounted his steed, the two flying swords had already sliced through his steed, sending it flying in a rain of blood. The dragon steed let out a neigh and was sent flying.
Liu Yun and Liu Sha arrived almost instantly as well. They killed anything that stood in their way of chasing after Miao Yi. Wielding the twin axes, Liu Sha sliced through the enemy like a knife through tofu. He swung his arms repeatedly, killing everyone and their steeds off their feet. Then, he charged towards Miao Yi with unstoppable momentum. Behind him was Liu Yun, who was hot on his heels.
After killing Miao Yi's steed, the two flying swords turned around under Liu Yun's control, piercing through the men and steeds in their way. Once again, they shot straight towards Miao Yi, who was using the men and steeds as cover to dodge the attack.
Miao Yi's movements as he rolled and dodged the attacks with his spear were extremely swift. However, against the unstoppable attacks of two Red Lotus experts, it was completely useless.
"Sigh!" The Lady Boss sighed as she witnessed this scene from atop the sand dune. She couldn't bear to watch. After all, they were acquaintances.
At the most crucial moment, Miao Yi, who had rolled and dodged the attacks, flicked his hand and threw out a string of pearls. The eighteen pearls glowed with a blue light and instantly grew larger as they flew out. He no longer cared about his comrades' safety as they transformed into balls the size of a table and knocked away his comrades and their steeds.
Bang bang! Two of the table-sized pearls were instantly destroyed by the two flying swords. They couldn't withstand the attacks of a Red Lotus cultivator.
Fortunately, this transcendent artifact was a Clone Transcendent Artifact. As long as the formation core wasn't destroyed, it wouldn't matter even if one or two of them were destroyed. If it had been a conjoined transcendent artifact, it would've been completely destroyed by now.
The remaining sixteen table-sized pearls immediately grouped together and protected Miao Yi in the center.
Liu Yun spun around and swung his arms, sweeping at the men and steeds around him. Blood and flesh splattered everywhere. Then, he swung out his twin battle axes and shot them out.
Boom boom! Another two spheres exploded into black mist and collapsed.
Taking advantage of this moment, Liu Yun, wielding a pair of flying swords, quickly shot out and attacked the gap in the ball formation. He wanted to charge in and kill Miao Yi in one fell swoop.
Whoosh! A thick wave of cold Yin energy suddenly gushed out from the gap, causing the surrounding temperature to plummet.
Liu Yun was shocked. He stomped on the ground and shot up into the sky like a shooting star. Both his legs were struck by the cold Yin energy and were instantly covered in a layer of frost. However, it didn't stop him from flying up and dodging the attack.
Liu Yun had just grabbed his twin battle axes, but he couldn't avoid it in time. However, he crossed his arms and created a wall of sand from the ground. Using his transcendence energy, he forcefully created a wall of sand from the ground to block the cold Yin energy.
It was a close shave for the two of them, and they almost failed miserably. However, their combat experience was clearly not something the likes of Suppressing Tenth Hall's Xu Jinsong could compare to.
Hiding inside the ball, Miao Yi saw that the Mystic Yin Mirror's ambush had failed and knew that it had lost its ability to attack the two of them. The Mystic Yin Mirror's greatest use was for sneak attacks.
However, he also took advantage of this moment to make the remaining fourteen balls shrink down by a grade, once again blocking the gap in the ball formation and protecting himself within.
In the air, the layer of frost covering Liu Yun's legs exploded, neutralizing the cold Yin energy. In order to prevent himself from getting hit again, he swung his flying swords down furiously.
Liu Yun pushed his battle axes forward, and the wall of sand in front of him immediately rained down on the ball formation protecting Miao Yi. At the same time, the twin battle axes in his hands shot out.
The two of them stopped their close-range attacks. Their goal was clear — they wanted to destroy Miao Yi's protective transcendent artifact first.
Boom boom boom boom! Another four balls disintegrated into black mist.
Seeing that the number of protective balls was decreasing, Miao Yi knew that he wouldn't be able to protect himself if this continued. Hiding inside was suicide. Standing on the ball with the formation core hidden beneath his feet, Miao Yi suddenly raised his spear and bellowed, "Kill!"
His furious roar echoed throughout the desert! The Lady Boss and the others on the sand dune exchanged glances with each other. Even the three of them were a little shocked by Miao Yi's rage.
More importantly, they didn't sense any fear from Miao Yi's desperate situation. Instead, he erupted with a strong will to counterattack!
Weng! Streams of raging flames burst out from the gaps between the spheres. The remaining ten spheres also spun and exploded along with the violent eruption of raging flames, sweeping in all directions.
Miao Yi looked like a god of fire, clad in battle armor as he swung his spear towards the sky. A sharp flaming sword slashed towards Liu Yun.
