Amidst the sound of hooves, Tang Bin arrived with a group of heavy cavalry from Seven Seas City, only to see that a large piece of empty land in the fertile land had been turned into a battlefield. All the withered trees had been uprooted by the wind, and there were even three large pits in the ground. Every collision between two experts would leave a deep pit. Beneath a huge rock, Sima Jing's cold corpse lay there, with his head separated from his body.
…
"Ah …"
Tang Bin's body trembled, and he got off his horse. Under the illumination of the torch, he looked at Sima Jing's corpse with a livid expression. His eyes were bloodshot as he said, "Who did this?"
A young clansman said with a cold expression, "Apart from Lin Muyu, who else has the ability to kill Elder Jing here? Moreover, Elder Jing's head was chopped off with a single slash, and the cut was very smooth. Lin Muyu is skilled with the sword, so who else could it be?! "
Another clansman gritted his teeth and said, "Lin Muyu is a bastard. Our Seven Seas City treated him so well, but he … he actually repaid our kindness with enmity and killed Elder Jing. Bastard!"
Tang Bin's body trembled slightly, and he was completely dispirited. After losing Sima Jing, it was as if he had lost an arm. He knew Sima Jing's strength very well. Sima Jing was at the peak of the Second Heaven of the Heaven State, but once he shapeshifted, his strength would at least be at the Third Heaven of the Heaven State. There was no need to mention the dangers in the Dragon Seeking Forest. Whether they could kill the Nine-Tailed Fox Demon after losing Sima Jing was a problem.
After a while, he said calmly, "Bury Elder Jing on the spot!"
"But Young Master …" One of the attendants said, "Elder Jing has followed Duke Lan for decades, and his military exploits are outstanding … Today, he died here. Can we bring Elder Jing's body back to Seven Seas City for burial? That is his hometown!"
"No."
Tang Bin's gaze turned cold, and he said, "Our mission this time is to find Xiao Xi. Although Elder Jing has made great contributions to Seven Seas City, is he more important than Xiao Xi? Moreover, Elder Jing is a soldier, and dying in battle is a kind of final destination. Bury him, and then continue searching for Xiao Xi's whereabouts. "
"Yes, Young Master …"
…
At dawn, Lin Muyu, who had been running for her life, had exhausted a lot of her energy. She suddenly threw a punch through the air. The four-dimensional energy surged and forcefully tore open a spatial crack 14 meters away. The Akatosaurus cub quickly crawled out of the spatial crack while howling. It knew that its master could only maintain the spatial crack for 10 seconds at most. It did not want to be trapped by the disappearing spatial crack.
"Howl …"
The little dragon ran to Lin Muyu's leg, rubbed against its owner's leg, and rolled on the ground happily.
Lin Muyu could not help but smile, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart. She thought about how Tang Xiaoxi loved this Akatosaurus in the hunting ground, but now, she was nowhere to be found, and people even called her a monster. Lin Muyu felt very sad. She hugged the Akatosaurus and sat under the tree, her body trembling slightly.
After a long time, the weakened state of the Falling Star Step disappeared. Lin Muyu immediately stood up and picked up some dry firewood to start a bonfire. At the same time, she used the Magic Noise Blade to kill a rabbit, skinned it, and roasted it on a tree branch. While roasting the rabbit, she took out the Dimensional Bag that she snatched from Elder Jing. The storage space of this Dimensional Bag was not big, at least, it was far less than the Qiankun Bag.
The things that Elder Jing collected were also very strange. They were all gold coins, diamond coins, and other valuables. In addition, there were several land deeds and contracts of slavery in Seven Seas City. After taking a closer look, there were a total of seven land deeds, which also indicated Elder Jing's wealth and status in Seven Seas City. There were seven mansions in the Third Ring of the Seven Seas Province's provincial capital city, and four contracts of slavery. They were women aged 16, 18, 20, and 22. Tsk tsk, although this old guy was not young, his degree of extravagance and debauchery was no less than those young nobles in the imperial capital!
Lin Muyu remained silent and threw the four contracts of slavery into the bonfire. Once Elder Jing died, these four girls would regain their freedom. As long as there were no contracts of slavery, they would not need to be slaves. As for the seven land deeds … they would all be transferred into her Qiankun Bag. Perhaps one day, when she really fell into dire straits, she would at least have seven properties in Seven Seas City. Moreover, even if in the future … in the event that she married Tang Xiaoxi, it would be considered a dowry.
Thinking of this, he could not help but feel distressed. Marrying Tang Xiaoxi, this sentence seemed so ridiculous now. Tang Xiaoxi was a nine-tailed demon fox, a nine-tailed demon fox that was despised and feared by the world. How could he marry her? Lin Muyu curled up in the cold wind and roasted rabbit meat. No matter how strong a person's strength was, after the eruption, what was left was only weakness.
However, when he thought about it again, perhaps the people of this world couldn't tolerate the Nine-tailed Fox, but there wasn't anything he couldn't accept. The Nine-tailed Fox was destined to be a heavenly beauty. Moreover, Little Xi was such a good person, so what was wrong with marrying a Nine-tailed Fox? However, the premise of all this was that Qin Yin could tolerate her …
Lin Muyu was well aware of Qin Yin's feelings for him. At the same time, he also understood that Qin Yin was the one he truly loved. It was just that there was a great disparity in their statuses. After thinking about it, he slapped his forehead. What was the point of thinking so much? Perhaps in the end, neither of these two girls would be his.
The little dragon was impatiently waiting for the rabbit meat to be roasted. It even winked at its master, indicating that it could accept rabbit meat with blood on it. However, Lin Muyu did not have the slightest intention of paying attention to it, because he could not accept rabbit meat with blood on it. If the conditions allowed it, it would affect digestion and be bad for the stomach.
…
After the meat was roasted, this time, in order to maintain her strength, Lin Muyu ate half of the rabbit. She only gave the other half to the little dragon and then let it hunt around by itself. The little dragon did not disappoint her. Not long after, it bit a wild boar to death and dragged it back. This wild boar weighed at least 200 catties, much heavier than the little dragon. It was rare that the little dragon could drag it. Moreover, the little dragon placed the wild boar carcass in front of Lin Muyu and began to "talk" with its claws and fangs. Although Lin Muyu could not understand what it was saying, she could understand its intention. The little fellow was inviting her to have a meal together!
"No need, you can eat!" Lin Muyu smiled and patted the little fellow's head.
She took out a map of the Dragon Seeking Forest and studied it carefully. Where would Tang Xiaoxi go? After looking at the map again and again, Lin Muyu's heart suddenly lit up. In the depths of the southern jungle of the Dragon Seeking Forest, there was a Dragon's Tomb. This was the place that Lin Muyu, Tang Xiaoxi, and Qin Yin had been to together. It was also the place that Qu Chu was guarding. Would Tang Xiaoxi go there?
At the thought of this, Lin Muyu could not help but cheer in her heart, "Yes, Xiao Xi must be in the Dragon's Tomb. She knows … If Xiao Yin and I want to find her, we will definitely go to the Dragon's Tomb. I'm really too stupid, I actually did not think that Xiao Xi would be in the Dragon's Tomb. Sigh, she is in the Dragon's Tomb!"
When he looked up, he saw that most of the wild boar had already been eaten by the little dragon. He immediately patted the little dragon's head and said, "Eat quickly, we have to continue our journey after eating."
After the little dragon finished eating, it was thrown into the alternate dimension. Lin Muyu immediately activated the Fallen Star Steps and traversed the depths of the Dragon Seeking Forest. After losing her warhorse, she could only rely on the Fallen Star Steps to travel. Moreover, if she could guess that Tang Xiaoxi would go to the Dragon's Tomb, others might be able to guess as well. After all, many people knew about that trip to the Dragon Seeking Forest.
However, Lin Muyu did not know that this time, there was more than one group of people who wanted to kill Tang Xiaoxi.
…
Dragon Seeking Forest, southern jungle.
A group of about 500 people rode slowly through the jungle. At the front of the group was an old man dressed in light armour. He wore a cloak embroidered with a python, and on his chest was a shiny golden Purple Flower Empire emblem. A group of people behind him also wore the emblems of the Empire's soldiers. A large flag that fluttered in the wind had the word "Zeng" engraved on it. They were the troops of the Divine Marquis Constabulary.
In the crowd, Captain Sikong Nan carried his long sword and quickly moved forward. He said, "Marquis, the messenger bird reported that the territory of a 7200 years old Bramble Wolf is in front of us. Should we go around it?"
Zeng Yifan shook his head and said, "No, this old man will go and kill it in a moment."
"Yes!"
Sikong Nan held his saber and bowed respectfully. He asked cautiously, "Marquis, if we find Tang Xiaoxi … what should we do? Please tell us, Marquis. Otherwise, we won't know what to do!"
"That depends on what kind of Tang Xiaoxi it is." Zeng Yifan squinted his eyes and smiled.
"What do you mean?" Sikong Nan was a boorish man and naturally did not understand the mystery.
Zhen Yifan smiled faintly and said, "If it's Tang Xiaoxi in her normal form, we'll bring her back to Lanyan City and take good care of her. If it's Tang Xiaoxi in the form of the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox … we'll kill her on the spot and leave the Imperial Army's insignia behind."
"This …"
Sikong Nan was confused. "What do you mean? Why don't we take this opportunity to kill Tang Xiaoxi? She is Her Highness Qin Yin's best friend. If Tang Xiaoxi is alive, it is destined to be a contract between the Imperial Capital and the Seven Seas City. "
Zeng Yifan said lightly, "You only know one thing, not the other. If the Divine Marquis Residence kills Tang Xiaoxi, then we will offend Tang Lan. What good will that do us? So if Tang Xiaoxi is normal, we will bring her back and Tang Lan will naturally be grateful to the Divine Marquis Residence. But if Tang Xiaoxi is still a nine-tailed fox demon, then we will kill her and leave the Imperial Army emblem on her so that the Seven Seas City will know that it was Feng Jixing who killed Tang Xiaoxi. This way … the contract between the Lanyan City and the Seven Seas City will fall apart on its own. Isn't this the result we want? "
Sikong Nan suddenly understood. He cupped his fists and said, "The Marquis Residence is truly a man of God!"
Zeng Yifan's eyes dimmed as he said, "This is just wishful thinking on our part. Heaven knows what is going on now. Perhaps Tang Xiaoxi was killed by the spiritual beasts in the Dragon Seeking Forest, or perhaps she could not withstand the power of the nine-tailed fox demon and self-destructed. For now, we can only take one step at a time. Anyway, remember, do not act rashly at any time. Also, do not clash with Her Highness Yin's army. Now is not the time."
"Yes, Marquis Residence!"
