Chapter 3245
"You stayed in the city for so long, and in the end, you still came back. It seems your backer is indeed unreliable."
Xiao Meiniang said to Wu Feng with a face full of spring breeze, smiling.
At this moment, Xiao Meiniang's attire was somewhat different from usual; her body was wrapped in a layer of shimmering light, with bronze colors flowing. Clearly, this was a top-grade defensive magic treasure.
At the same time, a faint, indescribable aura emanated from Xiao Meiniang's body.
Wu Feng's heart stirred. Clearly, this indescribable aura of Xiao Meiniang should come from the origin of this world.
Although there wasn't much, Xiao Meiniang was able to come into contact with the origin of this world, and she was currently so urgent, which meant that tonight's action should also be to obtain some world origin.
Facing Xiao Meiniang's taunt, Wu Feng was expressionless. He very naturally took out the pill he had bought and said to Xiao Meiniang, "Do you know what this pill is?"
Xiao Meiniang looked at it for a few moments and felt it looked somewhat familiar. Soon, her expression changed, and she was about to make a move, but Wu Feng directly tossed the pill into his mouth.
At the same time, Wu Feng transmitted his voice to Xiao Meiniang, "Xiao Meiniang, I know you are just using me. You want to take me along to get your benefits, and you couldn't care less whether I live or die."
At this moment, Xiao Meiniang seemed to have been completely enraged, but she also had some misgivings.
"Little one, do you want to use your alchemy memory and technique to threaten me?"
Xiao Meiniang said coldly.
Wu Feng nodded, the pill still held in his mouth.
Wu Feng continued to transmit his voice, "Xiao Meiniang, I know you definitely won't let me go, but I also know that my alchemy technique is the biggest reason you targeted me, isn't it?"
"So what if it is? Do you have any means to escape?"
Xiao Meiniang said coldly.
If looks could control people, Xiao Meiniang would definitely have controlled Wu Feng and tortured him thoroughly after doing so.
However, facing the murderous Xiao Meiniang, Wu Feng remained calm and said, "There is no need to speak like this now. I said before, we can talk properly."
"I must take you away tonight, and you must help me."
Xiao Meiniang said firmly.

Chapter 2248: Preparation.
"I can agree to this point. I can agree that I won't eat this pill, but you need to tell me the whole story properly. I don't know anything right now, and if I go over, I might just be a dead man. I must make preparations."
Wu Feng stated his demands to Xiao Meiniang.
Xiao Meiniang was slightly stunned upon hearing this, but soon she revealed her usual charming smile.
"Little Wu Feng, so you were afraid of this?"
"No need, no need. I said before, with me here, I certainly won't let you die so easily. After all, you also know that your alchemy technique is very important to me, don't you agree?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Feng just sneered and said, "You know very well that what I said is the truth. It's already been dark for a while now; perhaps you also need to gather with the people behind you. Don't let me delay your affairs."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Meiniang directly flashed to within half a meter of Wu Feng and reached out to constrain him.
But facing this kind of attack, Wu Feng felt no pressure and was about to swallow the pill directly.
At the same time, Wu Feng quickly transmitted his voice, "Stop, or we will both suffer."
In the end, Xiao Meiniang stopped, took several steps back, and faced Wu Feng with a very angry look.
At this very moment, all of Xiao Meiniang's disguises were gone. Her appearance toward Wu Feng was that of a demon, and her face became twisted.
Waves of very crazy auras were gathering behind Xiao Meiniang.
Wu Feng felt a shock in his heart.
This Xiao Meiniang's aura should be something only an evil cultivator would have.
You must know that the City Lord of this Haotian City is actually a righteous cultivator.
These days, although righteous cultivators and evil cultivators are about the same, at most, righteous cultivators know how to cover it up a bit when they do bad things.
However, since they are called righteous and evil, naturally there will still be some fighting between them.
Partisanship is a human instinct; even in the cultivation world, it is the same.
At the same time, Wu Feng also knew that at this moment, Xiao Meiniang revealing her evil cultivator image meant that afterward, no matter what, Wu Feng could not possibly stay alive.
However, Wu Feng remained expressionless and said to Xiao Meiniang, "I know that at this very moment, you want to kill me, and you will kill me afterward, but I still hope to struggle a bit."
"I don't want much; I just want you to tell me the whole story from beginning to end, and then I can make preparations so I don't die in this matter."
Regarding Wu Feng's words, a mocking look appeared on Xiao Meiniang's gloomy, demon-like face, and she said, "Little one, you think too highly of yourself. You are definitely going to die tonight. Even if you have all kinds of good luck, I will still kill you afterward, after all, you have seen what I look like now."
At this moment, Xiao Meiniang had already constructed a formation to restrict Wu Feng and herself in this room.
It would be as difficult as ascending to heaven for Wu Feng to get out of here.
"Little one, accept your fate. Actually, I have been searching for alchemists for a long time, but what happened? After searching the outskirts of Haotian City for so long, you are the only one who can barely satisfy my requirements. So, I have no choice. Little one, don't blame me."

Chapter 2249: End.
Regarding this woman's words, Wu Feng remained under no pressure and said lightly, "Whether I will be killed by you afterward is a matter for later. At least before that matter is over, you won't kill me, right?"
Xiao Meiniang looked Wu Feng up and down a few times and said, "So, you just want to know the whole story and the danger level?"
"Yes, only in this way can I have a glimmer of survival."
"After all, your cultivation base is very high, but if I can hold on under your attack and then escape into the city to find Shopkeeper Wang, then he will be able to protect me."
Wu Feng stated his so-called plan. Of course, this was not his real plan.
And Xiao Meiniang also scoffed at Wu Feng's plan, saying, "Little one, you are overthinking."
"Whether I am overthinking or not is my own business. Anyway, I am going to fight with all my might. I will try to grasp any chance of survival. Even an ant tries to live; it is very reasonable for me to find a way to protect my own life, don't you think?"
"Fine, little one, since you've said so, then there is no need for me to continue wasting time with you."
This Xiao Meiniang also lost patience, and she really began to tell the whole story.
It turned out that more than a thousand kilometers southeast of Haotian City, there was a very peculiar mountain range.
In the mountain range, there were many exotic beasts, which had long been a place for cultivators to earn extra money. Xiao Meiniang had occasionally gone there to take a look before.
But several years ago, Xiao Meiniang met a man. This man was Xiao Meiniang's patron, and he told Xiao Meiniang that he came from an organization.
This organization was composed of cultivators from the entire Haotian City and some rare ones from outside the city.
The purpose of this organization was to go deep into the core of that mountain range every hundred years to obtain a powerful, indescribable aura.
This aura was strange, but it could be absorbed by ordinary cultivators.
And the cultivation base of a cultivator who absorbed this aura could advance by leaps and bounds.
However, if one wanted to absorb that indescribable aura, one also needed a brilliant alchemist to refine that indescribable aura into a pill before it could be absorbed.
Otherwise, if one were to rashly absorb that indescribable aura directly, one would directly turn into something strange.
And inside that mountain range, naturally, there were also some cultivators who didn't know better and had absorbed that indescribable aura; they had already turned into strange beings and were now wandering around the core of the mountain range.
The strange beings had very powerful abilities, and every time the organization acted, some people would be killed.
Therefore, the organization also implemented a rule: if you want to join this organization and participate in the once-in-a-hundred-year action, you need to bring a brilliant alchemist.
After doing this, both the alchemist and the recommender could get protection from the experts within the organization, greatly increasing the chance of survival.
Having said this, Xiao Meiniang said with lingering fear, "Little one, I'm not lying to you. The strange beings in that place can barely be countered unless one is an absolute expert who has surpassed the Saint stage. And strange beings are immortal existences. I need you so that I can find experts to protect us."
Chapter 2250: Probability
Chapter 2250: Probability.
"Even so, the probability of finally surviving is not particularly high. Don't blame me, you know?"
At this moment, this woman seemed to be revealing a bit of a humanized posture.
However, this required ignoring this woman's absolute evil cultivator image.
After hearing this, Wu Feng was actually very excited in his heart.
After all, he would soon be able to come into contact with the origin of this world.
As for those strange beings, although Wu Feng had a low cultivation base and couldn't simply absorb them as before.
However, Wu Feng had a lot of experience and had dealt with strange beings many times. Under these circumstances, Wu Feng had a chance of survival.
Thus, Wu Feng took out that pill for Xiao Meiniang and discarded it on the ground.
Seeing Wu Feng discard the pill, Xiao Meiniang also withdrew her evil cultivator posture, and even the formation was unlocked.
Clearly, although Xiao Meiniang's cultivation base was at the late Saint stage, maintaining this formation also required consuming a lot of physical strength.
Xiao Meiniang looked at the sky outside and said, "Little one, we can set off. When the time comes, after meeting the people inside the organization, be honest. Don't talk. Some of the experts among them have absorbed some indescribable aura and can no longer be considered normal cultivators, do you understand?"
Wu Feng nodded. He knew very well what the situation was for cultivators who had absorbed indescribable aura.
Xiao Meiniang took out a flying magic treasure, carried Wu Feng, and flew into the high sky, heading toward the southeast. ===== CHAPTER 3247 =====
