Chapter 86: Luosang Takes Action, A New City Lord?
"Hehehehe."
Seeing Luosang's awkward expression, Wang Dazhu couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Hmm?
Luosang turned his head to look, and Wang Dazhu immediately stifled his laughter, lowered his head, and began to practice in a pretentious manner.
"Wang Dazhu, have you mastered the Three Elements Spirit Gathering Art? You're grinning and not practicing properly."
Luosang glared at him and scolded.
"Well, Elder Luosang, my Master taught me the Three Elements Spirit Gathering Art a long time ago. Can I go now?"
Wang Dazhu chuckled and made a move to get up and run.
"Stop!"
Elder Luosang said with a straight face, thinking to himself, "I can't afford to provoke the two in front, so I'll admit defeat, but if I let you brat run off, wouldn't I lose a lot of face?"
"Elder Luosang, I brought back a jar of 200-year-old vintage wine, intending to offer it to you."
Wang Dazhu said in a low voice.
"Hmm... 200-year-old vintage wine? Do you think a jar of wine can bribe me? That's impossible."
Elder Luosang shook his head and said.
"The wine is very fragrant, with an endless aftertaste, and the flavor is superb. Do you really not want it?" Wang Dazhu asked.
"Even if you gave me two... two jars... I wouldn't care. I've quit drinking."
Elder Luosang said with difficulty.
"Ah, that's a real pity. I originally wanted to give you three jars. I didn't expect you to have quit drinking. What a pity. Elder Luosang, you go ahead. I'll just guide the junior brothers in their practice. You've worked hard, go take a rest first."
Wang Dazhu sat back in his original spot with a look of regret.
"Th-three jars? Hurry up and bring them to me. If one jar is missing, see if I don't beat you to death."
Luosang licked his lips and said.
Damn Wang Dazhu, he had stirred up his craving for alcohol.
"Hehe, don't worry, I'll go get them right now."
Wang Dazhu chuckled and walked away quickly.
Just kidding, let him guide the junior brothers in their practice? There are over 200 junior brothers and sisters here; better forget it.
Carrying three jars of fine wine, Wang Dazhu came to Luosang's side and whispered, "You must never say that I gave them to you, otherwise if my Master finds out, he will definitely beat me to death."
"And you must not be greedy for the cup. If you get drunk, we'll all be finished."
Wang Dazhu instructed.
"Don't worry, your wine doesn't taste that great; I don't really like drinking it. You want to go to the Spirit Cave to practice, right? Go, go, I'm watching here, no problem."
Luosang promised with certainty.
After Wang Dazhu left, Luosang immediately opened a wine jar and sniffed it at the tip of his nose.
"Hiss... so fragrant!"
Three minutes later, a jar of wine had already been drunk by him, and he was clearly already tipsy.
Zhang Ze slowly woke up from his practice, twitched his nose, and asked suspiciously, "Where is that smell of wine coming from?"
He got up to look and saw Elder Luosang had already passed out drunk on the ground.
"Didn't the Sect Master strictly forbid Uncle Luosang from drinking? Who has the guts to dare give wine to Uncle?"
Zhang Ze helped Luosang up, his face gloomy.
Fifth level of the Spirit Cave.
Yan Xiao and Tingxue entered one after another, both wanting to enter the sixth level to practice.
Yan Xiao was there because his Five Elements Divine Art was severely unbalanced, and he had basically not practiced the Gold Attribute, and the system had already issued a warning.
It required him to enter the sixth level to absorb Gold Essence Qi.
As for Tingxue, she did not practice attributes; she practiced a unique assassination sword path. She simply felt that the Spirit Qi on the sixth level was denser and wanted to go inside and sit for a while.
"Tingxue, didn't you receive interference from the poisonous gas?"
Yan Xiao took out the Skin Inflammation Ointment and applied it to his hands, which finally relieved the pressure of the poisonous gas, while Tingxue was as if nothing had happened.
"This level of toxicity poses no threat to me."
Tingxue said indifferently.
Ha.
Having strength makes one willful.
He had wanted to ask if she needed some special ointment, but it seemed she had no use for it.
"I heard the sixth level is Gold-attributed. I am quite worried about the penetrating power of the Gold Essence Qi. Does Young Master have any good methods?"
Tingxue asked, which was rare for her.
"Doesn't seem like it... I've never been in."
Yan Xiao spread his hands, indicating he didn't know either.
"Oh."
Tingxue replied indifferently, turned around, and strode toward the entrance.
Yan Xiao touched his nose. Was he being looked down upon by a beautiful assassin?
It must be!
"Chenxi, can you protect me?"
Yan Xiao waved at the Golden Scale Shuttle, and Chenxi immediately jumped into his arms and nodded cutely.
"That's good, let's go. We can't let that girl Tingxue look down on us."
Yan Xiao held Chenxi and jumped into the sixth level.
Swish, swish, swish—
Just after entering, several streaks of sword light immediately shot toward Yan Xiao.
Yan Xiao had not expected the Gold Essence Qi on the sixth level to be so volatile; failing to dodge in time, a deep gash was cut into his arm.
"Such strong penetrating power!"
Given the strength of Yan Xiao's physical body, ordinary blades and swords could not hurt him at all, yet this streak of Qi had merely brushed past him and caused him a serious injury.
The penetrating power of the Gold Essence Qi was evident.
Swish, swish, swish!
More streaks of sword light shot over; seeing this, Chenxi immediately took action, charging toward the sword light with puffed-up cheeks, catching the sword light and stuffing it into her mouth.
While eating, she gestured with babbling sounds, as if saying, "How dare you bully Owner."
"Heh."
Yan Xiao was charmed by Chenxi and gave her a thumbs-up as a reward.
Chenxi looked expectantly at the sword light streaking through the air; these sword lights were all formed by Gold Essence Qi and were undoubtedly the best food for Chenxi.
"Go ahead, I will be fine."
Yan Xiao summoned the Magic Sword to use for resisting the pressure.
"Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, the Five Elements unite, Five Elements Edict."
Yan Xiao pressed his palms together and steered the Magic Sword to draw a complex talisman seal in the air; the Magic Sword erupted with a divine light, enveloping Yan Xiao within it.
Five Elements Divine Art, Minor Accomplishment.
Seeing that Yan Xiao was fine, Chenxi happily went to catch the Gold Essence Qi, one in her left hand and one in her right, eating with great relish as if they were spicy snack strips.
Walking slowly forward, the space on the sixth level was not large; after turning a corner, he saw the entrance to the seventh level and Tingxue, who was struggling to neutralize the sword Qi to the side.
"What a powerful shield."
Seeing Yan Xiao walk over as if he were taking a stroll, Tingxue could not help but exclaim in surprise.
"How did you do that?"
She had to use nearly all her strength to block the sneak attacks of the sword light, but looking at Yan Xiao, he could not be more leisurely.
"This... is my unique secret technique," Yan Xiao replied.
In truth, he had spent 10,000 Fear Value to forcibly raise the Five Elements Divine Art to the Minor Accomplishment realm.
Otherwise, with his comprehension ability, it would have been very unlikely for him to fathom the mysteries of the cultivation method!
Of course, only he and the system knew about this.
He would not tell anyone.
"Want to learn?" Yan Xiao asked.
Without waiting for Tingxue to answer, he continued, "Even if you wanted to learn, you wouldn't be able to."
Tingxue did not speak again.
This guy was definitely taking revenge for her previous disdain toward him.
Tingxue used her sword technique to neutralize the sword light, time and time again; her movements were skilled and seasoned, worthy of a Gold Medal Assassin, as she could control the timing and power of her strikes to perfection.
Yan Xiao put on his Sunglasses and carefully observed her every move.
A moment later, he found Tingxue's fatal weakness: insufficient defense.
Once she encountered an opponent with powerful explosive force, such as an attack from the Sun-Shooting Divine Bow, Tingxue would basically have no power to parry.
"Your defense is too weak, which may be related to your profession.
As an assassin, you only aim for a one-hit kill while neglecting your own defense."
Yan Xiao said slowly.
Tingxue still did not speak, waiting for Yan Xiao's follow-up.
"But since you are with me, I prefer that my subordinates can also retreat unscathed while completing their missions."
The corners of Tingxue's mouth twitched; it was the first time she had heard someone care about whether she lived or died.
Although his tone of voice was annoying, the feeling of being cared about was good, really good.
