Do you know who I am?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t care who you are.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baili An said calmly, his steps showing no sign of stopping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I order you to stop! You can leave, but leave your sword behind!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baili An finally stopped, turning around helplessly to look at him, \"You have your own sword, why do you want mine? Besides, this sword is my belonging, why should I give it to you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tall young man sneered inside, still asking why? Doesn’t he understand the law of the jungle?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he thought this, the tall young man felt this kid was just a fool, and talking more would only waste his breath, so he decided to just take it by force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His five hooked claws glinted sharply, with a faint flash of light in his palm as he viciously grabbed towards Baili An’s throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tall young man was of the Fourth Grade in cultivation, while Baili An was only of the First Grade. So for this lightning-fast strike, Baili An was a bit stunned and unable to react.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He never expected a descendant of a Cultivation Family to be so ruthless and unreasonable, attacking at the slightest disagreement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, from his demeanor, it seemed he had no intention of holding back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baili An was about to gather his Qi to dodge the attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the next moment, he heard a bell-like light laugh by his ear, and something white seemed to flash before his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baili An squinted slightly, his excellent vision capturing that the white object was actually a white, plump, soup-filled bun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately following, he heard the tall young man let out a cry of pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The plump soup-filled bun had precisely hit the attacking palm of the tall young man five times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a splatter, the plump soup-filled bun couldn’t withstand the attacking claw and split apart in his palm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the thick hot juice, which looked extremely hot, splashed into a big oily flower in his palm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tall young man cried out and withdrew his hand, and upon looking at his palm, it was already covered in blisters, his face turning extremely ugly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baili An tilted his head in puzzlement, completely confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tall young man had clearly used Spiritual Power to cover the hand that was attacked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bun splitting apart was expected, but how did the soup burn him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Zhao Baixun, you’re just a Young Master of the Moon Accompanying Palace, what’s so arrogant about you on the territory of Bai Tuo Mountain? Publicly robbing a fellow Cultivator’s treasure, truly a disgrace to your Moon Accompanying Palace!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A crisp, bird-like young girl’s voice suddenly rang out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baili An turned his head to look and saw a young girl with an elegant and spiritual aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was clad in a light green robe, leaning against the wooden railing of the second-floor staircase. Her beauty seemed unreal, with one jade hand gently supporting her cheek, looking at the three below with a half-smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl’s smile was pure and harmless, her brow lively, like a gentle and benign little animal, which easily touched the softest strings of someone’s heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tall young man named Zhao Baixun immediately restrained his anger and blew twice on his injured palm, saying, \"So it’s you, young lady.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he said this, he didn’t even realize that the arrogance he usually had had mostly dissipated at this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shorter young man beside him also involuntarily swallowed, his eyes showing both admiration and fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He muttered softly, \"How did this little grandaunt come out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Baixun lowly shouted, \"Tie Yun, shut your mouth!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baili An looked up at the girl who seemed about his age and asked, \"Was that bun you threw out?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl casually murmured an agreement, idly wrapping a lock of hair around her slender jade finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No need to thank me, but if you really want to express your gratitude, then go buy me a bun, I haven’t had my dinner yet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baili An, however, was intently staring at her hand, frowning, \"That bun looked like a freshly steamed soup bun, very hot, are your hands okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hand entwining the hair paused slightly, and those extremely beautiful almond-shaped eyes almost narrowed into a line.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re a strange person. I helped you, yet instead of thanking me, you care if my hand is alright?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baili An was silent for a moment, then said, \"Thank you for helping me just now... so, does your hand hurt?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truly a persistent person...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl smiled helplessly: \"Since I can use a meat bun to hit a dog, naturally, I wouldn’t be hurt by my own weapon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baili An nodded thoughtfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl gave him a charming smile: \"What a silly boy...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being subtly called a dog, Zhao Baixun, the tall young man, showed no anger on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The injured palm hanging down, hidden within the wide sleeve, he looked at the girl with a hint of fear in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As well as... an undeniable admiration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fear came from the bun that hurt him; no matter how hot a soup dumpling is, how could it harm a cultivator’s body?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There must be something special she did with that bun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the admiration, it naturally stemmed from her excessive beauty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He smiled bitterly and said, \"Miss, we’re in the same field, why the needless insult of calling me a dog?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl said with displeasure, \"Who is in the same field as you? If you cared about that, why would you forcibly take this boy’s sword!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baili An felt a stir in his heart; they were not on the same side, yet the innkeeper clearly said there were three immortals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So... one of their companions had yet to reveal himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baili An, who had been out of touch with the world for a long time, did not know until today that there were such people in the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a glib tongue, turning black into white, he could put a righteous spin on things to satisfy his selfish desires.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was Zhao Baixun who told him that such people exist in this world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Forcibly take? Miss, your words are too harsh. If it were to satisfy my personal desires and greed, naturally it could be said to be forcible taking, but I am acting out of goodwill.\" Zhao Baixun spoke uprightly, showing not a hint of guilt or shame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baili An looked at him silently, not angry because of his hypocritical sophistry, but quietly took a few steps up the stairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seemingly trying to discreetly distance himself from Zhao Baixun, as if afraid of accidentally catching his habits of hypocrisy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he made these moves covertly, everyone present was a cultivator with keen sight and hearing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His little move was akin to covering his ears to steal a bell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The move, although silent and subtle, clearly conveyed a sense of disdain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Baixun’s face immediately turned cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And that little move did not escape the notice of the girl on the second floor, who was amused, letting out a light chuckle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Taking someone else’s belongings and claiming it’s goodwill, still expecting gratitude and tears, kneeling to present the sword with both hands?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Very well, I will take your life now, also for your own good, quickly draw your sword and execute yourself...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she spoke, her beautiful eyes glanced over, catching Baili An’s little move in her eye, her smile growing even more radiant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That smile, like a tapestry of colors, exuded the unruly charm of a spirited young girl, making one forget the commonplace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her face held a smiling cheek, this unparalleled smile was like a gentle spring breeze melting the snow and ice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Baixun, who already harbored feelings, finally snapped out of it under this beautiful smile, awkwardly clearing his throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He continued to explain, \"Miss, don’t misunderstand, I do not intend to justify myself. You arrived at this place later than us from the Moon Accompanying Palace, and are unaware of the pig demon’s situation; my fellow disciples and I have witnessed the might of the pig demon firsthand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tie Yun quickly chimed in, \"Exactly. The pig demon, although not fully human in form, is powerful, with a strength equivalent to a human’s seventh-rank cultivation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Baixun’s tone softened even more: \"Indeed, I am not much, at eighteen only a Fourth Grade cultivator, and even with my fellow disciples, we might barely take down the pig demon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I saw this young man’s mediocre cultivation, merely an entry-level First Grade, yet possessing a treasure, and couldn’t help but feel it’s like a pearl covered in dust. I thought if I could borrow the might of the treasure, taking down the pig demon would be a certainty.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he professed his inadequacy, his eyes betrayed undeniable pride.\u003C\u002Fp>",1515,"2026-06-06T15:17:01.672Z",1,"novelbin.me","2b648317e35f029d04c4571ae029ca149701c03d2e02df8e1a6acf8c16cc9b3e","journey-to-the-end-of-the-night-chapter-1250","journey-to-the-end-of-the-night-chapter-1248",1594,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fjourney-to-the-end-of-the-night-cover.jpg"]
