The Colorful Crazy Empress 064 Enchanted Night Colors

  Huǒ Shén Yuè, the top young master of the Fire Tribe!

  It's no exaggeration to say that he is the number one person in the Fire Tribe, as there has never been anyone in the Fire Tribe with his talent and strength.

  He was only in his twenties, but his strength was frighteningly strong. Apart from the elderly patriarch of the Fire Clan, there were hardly a few people in the Fire Clan who could fight him to a draw, let alone defeat him.

  Due to his cold and distant personality, as well as being extremely warlike, he was known among the ancient tribes as the Cold-Blooded Overlord!

  His most representative feature is the Qingyue Kui that he carries with him. The one and only divine instrument in the world, Qingyue Kui, is owned by Huo Shen Yue alone. What his heterodox ability is, no one knows. However, what makes him the most formidable is using sound to kill, using spirit as auxiliary, invincible wherever he goes.

  It was precisely because of the Cangyue Guzheng in his hand that Ruan Qin could instantly judge a person's identity. He had long known from the Tuoqing Pavilion's intelligence network that the young master of the Huo tribe was extraordinary, and today he saw that it was indeed not in vain. The sound-killing technique in his hand was mysterious to the extreme, and no one could learn it, but she was curious about it.

  Lotus Frost and Snow Mirror felt the icy killing intent in the air, they opened their eyes at the same time, tilted their small heads to look at Huo Shen Yue.

  "Squeak—squeak—"

  The lotus demon bared its teeth and brandished its claws, making a gesture as if it was about to fly over and slap the Fire God Mo. But Ruan Qindeng directly pressed it into his arms, lest this little thing die before it even had a chance to show off its skills.

  "Hiss——"

  Xue Jing saw Lian E eating a pancake, proudly and confidently wanting to do something for his mother, but as soon as he came out, he was directly stuffed into her sleeve.

  Does this little guy want to be cooked into snake meat soup for others?

  Even without making a move, Ruan Qincheng could already feel the extraordinary aura of Huo Shen Yue. He was definitely not as easy to deal with as Feng Yao Huan, this man was absolutely extremely dangerous!

  "You can't tell you're still young, but you've got a discerning eye!"

  Huǒ Shén Yuè's gaze swept over Ruǎn Qín Chén's face, which was absolutely lethal, his heart was calm and unruffled, in those purple cold eyes, there was only a chill that rejected all emotions.

  When he saw Ruan Qincheng's fearless gaze, his anger dissipated a lot.

  He didn't expect the provocative person from the Huoyan tribe would be such a young boy!

  Someone with such a resolute gaze must not be the kind of person who intentionally looks for trouble. However, when someone from the Fire Tribe is bullied and he, as the young master, doesn't intervene, how can he justify it to his clan's upbringing?

  At this age, no young man can defeat him, Huo Yangwei has truly disgraced the entire Huo clan.

  "No matter what method you use, as long as you can withstand my three moves and not die, the grievances between us will be written off."

  The voice of Huo Shen Yue was lonely and arrogant, with a strong heroic aura, ringing out loud and clear.

  "Alright! I accept your challenge! However, if you lose after we fight, then you'll have to be my bodyguard for half a year! That's the only way it can be fair!"

  Ruan Qincheng's eyes flashed with a hint of pride, her voice firm and resolute. At this moment, she was eager to experience the legendary Sound Kill, and if she could learn even a little bit, it would be perfect!

  "Alright! I promise!"

  Huǒ Shén Yuè agreed in a split second, only to realize afterwards that she was actually here to settle the score with her! How did it end up as a bet between them?

  Although he was a bit stunned that he had unknowingly fallen into her trap, he still had confidence in his own strength. He just didn't believe she could win against him!

  He has always been a man of his word, and once he agrees to something, it's as good as done!

  Lan Jun Sheng and Huan Yuan heard the commotion outside, immediately rushed to the balcony, only to see two people with cold eyes locked in a tense standoff. At once, a chill flashed across their eyes, someone dared to bully his sister! How reckless!

  "Xiao Shang took Huan Yan aside and said: 'Taking care of yourselves is the greatest help you can give me!'"

  Ruan Qincheng saw them rushing over and knew that with Yu Junxiao's temperament, he would definitely take action. She was older than them, so she naturally wanted to protect them well. Moreover, she also wanted to experience the strength of the Hu tribe's young master, after all, in the Jinghua Douling Conference five years later, he was her must-defeat opponent!

  It's said that Huo Shen Yue does things openly and honestly, so there's no need to worry that he'll lay a hand on them.

  "Be careful!"

  Lan Jun Song looked at her eyes full of combat spirit and nodded, surprisingly agreeing very decisively. However, if she were in danger, he would definitely act without hesitation.

  Huan's small face also showed a solemn expression. Her fiery red eyes locked onto them, revealing some deep meaning that was unknown.

  "Hmm!"

  Ruan Qinchun's lips curled up with a confident smile, her long blue lotus robe fluttering as she swept it aside.

  With a wave of her slender white hand, the powerful soul force controlled the countless cherry blossoms, flying in like a tornado and spreading out at her feet. Standing on the cherry blossoms underfoot, she stood suspended in mid-air, the wildly dancing wind blowing around her, but her figure didn't waver in the slightest.

  "Spiritual power!"

  The moment the Fire God Month saw the cherry blossoms dancing in the sky, his icy eyes burst forth with a fierce fighting spirit. He didn't expect to encounter an opponent with spiritual power; it seemed like this one was quite strong too, which suited his taste perfectly.

  It's just unknown how much control this young man has over his spiritual power at such a young age.

  "Cherry blossoms floating on clouds!"

  Ruan Qinchun's lips, red and moist, moved slightly, like silk ribbons wrapped around her body, the cherry blossoms seemed to flow towards the Fire God Moon. The scene was breathtakingly beautiful, attracting countless people below to look up in wonder.

  One by one, they tilted their necks, unable to understand why the petals on the cherry blossom tree would suddenly fly up into the sky.

  "What's going on here?"

  "I don't know! But it looks really good!"

  "Really! I didn't expect such a wonderful view at Qiuxia Residence!"

  “……。”

  He was standing at the bottom, looking straight up at the sky, with a hint of schadenfreude in his eyes. If one looked closely, they could also see a tinge of jealousy hidden beneath.

  "The young master has made his move, that guy is done for! Hmph, daring to provoke me, this is the outcome!"

  "What Wei Ge said is right! That transvestite who looks like a woman will definitely be beaten by the young master until he's rolling on the ground in pain! Haha!"

  He burst into a loud and fierce laughter, throwing his head back and staring at the sky with an unblinking gaze. Although he couldn't see what was happening above, he could imagine that the scene must be extremely brutal.

  "Xiao Qianqian is right! That demon will definitely be kicked down by Young Master!"

  Two people looked down with infinite longing, their necks were sore but they didn't see the expected scene.

  "Phantom Cloud Snow Sound—Annihilation!"

  The Fire God's ten fingers spread out, the dark moon's guqin strings in front of him trembled with an extremely strange vibration. Rows of invisible sound blades tore through the sky, shredding the cherry blossom clouds into fragments.

  Ruan Qincheng's eyes shone with a sharp light as he gazed at the vibrating strings of the Guqin in front of him, his mind slightly distracted. It seemed that only such a divine instrument could withstand such an extreme frequency without breaking apart. I wonder if the Dragon Tooth Guqin would have the same effect?

  "Hmm——"

  The beautiful cherry blossoms float in the air, like fireworks bursting open in space.

  "Sound of the grave at midnight!"

  The war intent in Huo Shen's eyes grew more intense, his fingers swept across, and the sound blade transformed into a crescent-shaped arc flying out. The terrifying sound blade was like an invisible sharp blade.

  Ruan Qinchun's slender hand made a swift motion, and the teapot and tea cups on the table flew towards him.

  "Crack!"

  Huǒ Shén Yuè was stunned for a moment, never expecting her to use the teapot as a hidden weapon. Yīn Rèn swept across, and the teapot and tea cup shattered, coincidentally falling straight down.

  "Huh? Vega, look! Something's coming down!"

  Suddenly saw a black dot magnified, immediately pulled Huo Yang Wei excitedly to take a look.

  "Where? Where?"

  Huoyang Wei was also excitedly looking up with his head raised, eagerly waiting.

  Bang! Bang!

  Several broken teapots and tea cups flew through tens of meters at an accelerating speed, faster than hidden weapons, and smashed onto their heads. The two had just seen what was falling when they fainted beautifully with their heads blooming.

  Ruan Qincheng saw that her attack was blocked, and she wasn't particularly surprised. Her gaze was tightly locked onto his fingers, clearly memorizing his movements. Since the day her body merged with the Snow Soul Jade Crystal, she discovered that she had gained a photographic memory.

  As long as she wants to remember something, as long as she concentrates her mind, she can deeply remember it in her mind.

  Her arm drew a circular shape in the air, and layers of flower petals rippled out around her. Her spiritual power was very special, fully integrated into her soul, and she only needed to control it with her thoughts to achieve the attack effect she wanted.

  The biggest drawback is that it consumes too much soul power, calling upon a large amount of spiritual energy will put a burden on her soul.

  If she wants to increase her strength, she must strengthen the power of her soul. The most mysterious thing in the world is the power of the soul, and it can be said that it is extremely difficult for her to improve.

  I heard that the Xuan Tian Academy encompasses all the cultivation methods in the world, so she must go to the Xuan Tian Academy.

  "Whirling Flower Sword!"

  Ruan Qinchun lightly shouted, her jade palm rose, and the petals around her quickly flew up.

  That figure in a green lotus-like dress as white as snow, stood proudly amidst the cherry blossom rain. Although she had a delicate body like a willow, she stood up straight with her back upright, proud and unyielding like a plum blossom, bursting forth with unparalleled beauty in the cold wind.

  On her exquisite little face, under the curled eyelashes, a pair of ink jade pupils, like the boundless universe, deep and profound.

  Huǒ Shén Yuè gazed at this breathtaking scenery, a thread of admiration rising in his heart. To have reached such heights at this age, truly a prodigy!

  I'm really looking forward to her next move!

  Ruan Qincheng merged the moves of "Lianlian Sword" into his spiritual power, and cherry blossoms turned into sharp swords, falling down like a thousand swords firing together, with a momentum like a stormy rain.

  "Whoosh whoosh whoosh——"

  "Snow sound, scatter!"

  On Huo Shen Yue's proud and handsome face, a look of astonishment appeared. His fingers moved with extreme agility, and the Cang Yue Gu Qin suddenly emitted a purple glow. Snowflake-like sound blades poured down like a stormy snow covering the sky and earth.

  Two forces collided in mid-air, sending out a powerful shockwave, churning up clouds and waves, majestic and grand.

  It only took two moves, and Ruan Qincheng's face turned pale, exhausting her spiritual power, making her somewhat powerless. Her skin as transparent as crystal, like a glass doll, seemed to shatter in the wind at any moment. However, even so, she still stood up straight, her eyes never weakening her will to fight.

  "Alright! Come at me again!"

  Huǒ Shén Yuè saw her two moves, which were extremely exquisite, and the light in his eyes became even more dazzling. He had not expected that she was just a spiritual power beginner, so he proudly used all his strength to launch the final move.

  "Clouds Disperse, Traces Remain!"

  Huǒ Shén Yuè dà hè yī shēng, bái xī rú yù de shǒu zhǐ, yǐ yī zhǒng fēi cháng xuán miào de shǒu jì bō xián, měi yī fēn lì dù, dōu gè yǒu bù tóng.

  The strings vibrated, releasing a soul-stirring sonic attack that burst forth suddenly. Space twisted in his silent melody, as if it might collapse at any moment, and an aura of terror spread out, making it hard to breathe.

  Ruan Qincheng carefully watched his movements, and as soon as she remembered them, she felt a slight suffocation in her chest. She bit her lip and made a comeback with the last of her strength, and a silver-purple thousand-leaf lotus pattern appeared on her brow, rippling out layer upon layer of lotus shadows. A holy light was cast onto her small face.

  A collision between spiritual power and soul, a stalemate, with neither gaining the upper hand.

  Her lips turned paler and paler, but she still stubbornly refused to give up.

  Huǒ Shén Yuè Lěng Níng de mù guāng, fú qǐ le yī sī zhèn hàn. shǒu zhǐ zài dù bō dòng xián sī, qiáng dà de líng lì zhù rù qí zhōng, lì kè ràng yīn shā de wēi lì bèi zēng.

  English Translation:

  The Fire God's cold and condensed gaze floated up with a hint of shock. His fingers moved again to pluck the strings, pouring in powerful spiritual energy, instantly doubling the killing power of the sound.

  Ruan Qin's dust was about to collapse, Lan Junsheng's bloody curved knife had been tightly grasped in his hand, and Lian Hui and Xue Jinglian were also accumulating momentum for the attack.

  They didn't dare make a move at this moment, fearing they might accidentally hurt her.

  After all, when strong people clash, it's easy to end up with both sides suffering losses.

  At this time, Huan's lips suddenly moved, and a faint, ethereal voice escaped from the corner of her mouth. Her voice was extremely soft and light, like a wisp of illusory smoke. Her fiery red eyes stared straight at Huo Shen Yue, exuding an aura of terrifying annihilation.

  "Counter-Devour!"

  Her voice was extremely pleasant to listen to, like a song from ancient times, with a long and lingering rhyme that made people unable to grasp.

  She had clearly made a sound, but her voice seemed to come from the sky like a sigh.

  Lotus turned her head sharply the moment she opened her mouth, with a look of shock in her eyes. It was actually Yanling! No wonder she hadn't spoken up until now!

  What is called "linguistic magic" means that as long as one opens their mouth, what they say will definitely come true.

  Every word she says is like a curse, with extremely terrifying power.

  However, every time she speaks a sentence, her lifespan shortens by ten years. If the opponent's strength is too strong and her linguistic power is insufficient, it will backfire on herself. Just like now, Huǒ Shén Yuè's strength far surpasses hers, and using her linguistic power must have caused her severe internal injuries.

  The next moment, Ruan Qincheng felt the oppressive aura of the surrounding souls suddenly lift, and Huo Shen Yue's face turned pale. The thin lips, like a knife edge, oozed out a thread of blood. He seemed to be unable to believe that he would lose, his eyes deeply gazing at her for a moment, without any words, then leaped up, his stumbling figure disappearing from sight.

  Ruan Qincheng stared inexplicably at the receding back of Huo Shenyue, unable to understand what had just happened. His strength was clearly superior to his own, so why did he suddenly become like this?

  "Pffft!"

  Huan's face turned pale, and a bloody smell rose from her throat. She couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of fresh blood, staining the petals of her lips with a flirtatious crimson color.

  "Huan Yuan!"

  Ruan Qincheng saw Huan Yuan spitting out fresh blood, and immediately tapped her toes, her figure fluttering like a butterfly, arriving in front of her in an instant. Seeing her heart-wrenching small face, a hint of worry floated up in her heart. Could it be that the previous duel's spiritual power collision had affected her?

  Huan saw her concerned gaze, the corners of his lips rose slightly, and he shook his head to indicate that he was fine. The blood in his chest continued to churn, but he forcibly suppressed it. Perhaps he didn't have the good fortune to accompany her on a journey through the world, taking in all its wonders!

  My own five internal organs have suffered no small damage, and it's hard to say how much time is left, I guess this is just my fate!

  The fluctuations of fate will disperse, and that person will surely find themselves. Having hidden for so long, can they ultimately not hide?

  "Is everything really okay?"

  Ruan Qincheng saw her increasingly pale face and still didn't feel at ease. He tightly grasped her hand, and the life force in his body, which was already exhausted, struggled to flow into hers.

  Lan Junxiao looked deeply at Huan Yuan, and her originally guarded heart was shocked in the moment she used her Spirit Speech without hesitation. Using the power of Spirit Speech was no different from trading one's life for another, yet she could do this much for her sister?

  What is her identity after all?

  Under the heavens, those who can use Spirit Speech are only direct descendants of that mysterious power!

  Was she also one of them from that mysterious force?

  Huàn Yuān looked at Ruǎn Qín Chén again and shook her head. She held Ruǎn's hand with her small hands and wrote three words in it.

  "I'm fine."

  "It's all right, just go in and take a rest first!"

  Ruan Qinchun took Huan Yuan's hand and walked into the bedroom together.

  After Huán Yuàn fell asleep, she sat down cross-legged to circulate the inner force in her body and began to heal herself. After exchanging blows with Huǒ Shén Yuè, she finally understood why Lán Míng Xuān never wanted her to take action and suggested that she go to Yǎn Tiān Academy. Spiritual power was a very dangerous thing, capable of harming others as well as oneself.

  It's just like today, if Huo Shen Yue hadn't suddenly stopped, she would have definitely suffered a serious injury. Her spiritual power was far from being as powerful as Huo Shen Yue's, and with her current strength, participating in the Lingyun Fighting Spirit Conference would be almost impossible to win.

  Lan Junxiong stood guard outside the room, avoiding anyone from disturbing her. Recalling the thrilling scene just now, he couldn't help but feel a lingering fear. Even as the King of Assassins, with the Nieshenshidian in hand, when facing those powerful ancient tribe members with extraordinary abilities, he was completely at a loss for countermeasures.

  Her own spiritual power wasn't even as good as her sister's, so what was she talking about protecting her sister for?

  Such a self, staying by sister's side is just a drag on her attention!

  Brother once said that if you want to become a true king of killers, you must go through the trials of the underworld. Originally, he didn't want to leave his sister, but now he has no choice but to leave. After sending his sister away from Yunyan Empire, he embarked on the path of Asura.

  "With sword in hand, I'll dye the mountains and rivers red, but I only wish you wouldn't get hurt."

  The night color gradually enveloped the entire city of Bixi, with a dark blue sky and a moonlit glow. The lanterns had just been lit, and the light reflected on the leaves was like a profusion of golden flowers in full bloom. The snowflakes fell gently, clustering together like a flock of fluttering butterflies. In the warm light, the petals were suffused with a soft orange glow, as if wrapped in a layer of gentle mist.

  Beautiful butterfly, flapping its wings, landed on the leaves of flowers. The moist wind stroked Ruan Qin's face, messing up her smooth bangs. On both sides of her were Huan Yuan and Lan Junxian, who looked like a golden boy and jade girl.

  "Little Dust, it's been less than half a day since we last met, and your complexion seems to have deteriorated quite a bit!"

  Yin Lü Feng's peach blossom eyes, lightly closed, and a faint, dim light flashed across. Her gaze fell on Ruan Qin Chen's face, filled with concern and worry.

  "It's nothing, just got bored and had a fight, used too much force!"

  Ruan Qinchun's eyes scanned the night view of Bixi City, watching the bustling crowds, and her heart felt a few moments of worldly complexity. The common people living in a peaceful corner of the land seemed to be unaffected by the turmoil in the world.

  "No wonder! I was just thinking why all the cherry blossom trees in front of Xiaya's residence were bare, it turns out it was your doing!"

  Yin Lv Feng took a deep look at her, seeing that she was safe and sound, his heart still racing. Earlier he had gone out to gather information about the war situation, and as soon as he returned, he saw the shocking cherry blossom forest, guessing that a great battle must have taken place.

  In the entire Xiqia Residence, the only person who could possibly unleash such destructive power, aside from his ruthless master, was none other than him.

  The opponent must be extraordinary if Xiao Chen can go all out like this.

  "Yeah, anyway you're going bald sooner or later, I helped you clean it up for free, don't thank me too much!"

  Ruan Qinchun said lightly, holding the lively and jumping lotus root, lest it jump onto the snack stall with a start.

  “……”

  Yin Lv Feng looked at her silently, it was really surprising that she could say such a straightforward and confident thing.

  "The night of Bicheng City is quite prosperous."

  As far as the eye can see, a dazzling array of flower lanterns hang from the branches of cherry blossom trees. The varieties of these lanterns are numerous and visually stunning. There are flower-blue lanterns, dragon-phoenix lanterns, prism lanterns, tree-ground lanterns, mushroom lanterns, and more. Each lantern has its own unique shape, adorned with golden cloud patterns and colorful tassels, creating a kaleidoscope of colors that vie for attention.

  Small pieces of paper, hanging on strings, with dense lantern riddles written on them. Lightly floating in the wind, looking exceptionally beautiful. Under the lantern riddles, people's heads are crowded and bustling. Some people have a thoughtful expression, some are excited, and some are curious, with all sorts of expressions.

  On both sides of the street, there were various small stalls, with hawkers' voices filling the air with a lively and festive atmosphere. On top of bamboo sticks, there were all sorts of iced sugar gourds in different flavors such as mountain red, hawthorn fruit, grapes, tuckahoe, walnut kernels, bean paste, etc., shining under the dazzling lights, looking extremely tempting.

  "The wise king has a good reputation and has managed the Jade Moon City in an orderly manner. It's no wonder that this place is so prosperous."

  Yin Lv Feng's voice was low and husky, with a hint of mystery. He had a thorough understanding of the situation within the five countries, as if he had everything under his control. His vast network of informants allowed him to stay informed about the movements of each country at all times.

  "Squeak——"

  Lotus's eyes widened with sparkling eyes, waving her small paws, desperately trying to pounce on the nearby ice cream cone. Those crystal-clear big eyes shone with a drooling light, like a hungry wolf seeing a little lamb.

  "This looks delicious! Give us five skewers!"

  Ruan Qinchun gently patted the little head of Lian Mei with her fingers, seeing how much she liked it, and then walked to the sugar gourd vendor's stall, her clear voice slowly falling.

  "Wow, sour and sweet iced honeydew melon, must be delicious!"

  The vendor with a smile all over his face packed five strings of iced sugar gourd for Ruan Xinzhi, each one having a different flavor.

  Yin Lv Feng immediately paid the money, his gaze as soft as a cloud gazing at Ruan Qin Chen holding the sugar gourd in her hand, with a warm smile on her face. His heart was as if it had been lightly struck by something, and gradually filled with an inexplicable sense of satisfaction.

  "Xiao Sheng, Huan Yuan, give!"

  Ruan Qincheng handed the mountain red sugar gourd and sea buckthorn sugar gourd to the two, and could clearly see that the corners of their mouths twitched slightly. Apparently, the two were quite resistant to this little kid's favorite food, but since it was Ruan Qincheng who had specially bought them for them, they both took them with consistent movements.

  "Xiao Lianrong Bao, this bean paste sugar gourd is yours!"

  "Squeak!"

  The lotus fairy excitedly hugged the sugar gourd, flapping her small wings to fly into the shade of a nearby tree to savor the delicious food. The excited little look was especially cute.

  "Little Yinzi, this is for you as a reward!"

  Ruan Qincheng looked at Yin Lvfeng's gaze, shook the sugar gourd in her hand and handed it to him.

  "Cough! Cough! Cough!"

  Yin Lv Feng heard her nickname, couldn't help but roll his eyes, and happily accepted the sugar gourd. This little Yin's nickname is also too shocking, right?

  "Haha!"

  Lan Junxiao heard Ruan Qincheng's words, and a hint of a smile floated onto his delicate face. His sister's nickname was well-deserved! Looking at him being so effeminate, he originally had great potential to be an imperial eunuch!

  Huan Yuan seriously ate the sugar gourd in her hand, her icy little face was still extremely calm. It's completely impossible to see the liveliness that a girl of this age should have, and she was quiet to the point of being heart-wrenching.

  "By the way, I haven't had dinner yet, and I know there's a restaurant nearby that serves great flatbread!"

  Yin Lvfeng's voice was soft and gentle as he spoke. As for Bimonth Castle, he was quite familiar with it. Coming to Bimonth Castle without trying the local snacks would be a pity.

  "What is bacon?"

  Ruan Qinchun blinked her eyes and asked curiously. She didn't feel hungry until now, but then she remembered that they hadn't eaten anything before coming out last night.

  "Flat meat is a delicious snack, the taste is very fresh and beautiful, you go try it and you'll know! Don't you believe in people's eyesight, little dust?"

  Yin Lv Feng's lips curled up, his peach blossom eyes cast a flirtatious glance, making Lan Jun Sheng and Huan Yuan break out in goosebumps.

  Ruan Qincheng was indeed in a higher realm, and he had developed immunity to her charming eyes, directly ignoring them.

  Walking in the bustling night market, a few people had the reflection of lanterns and night colors, but not many people noticed them. Otherwise, with their demeanor and appearance, they would have caused quite a commotion.

  Strolling around like this, picking out some small trinkets on the street, is indeed a great pleasure.

  "Let's go take a look over there!"

  Ruan Qindeng's gaze swept casually over the small stalls around her, and suddenly fell on an inconspicuous corner.

  Under the big cherry blossom tree, a small stall had a row of small gourd-shaped jade pendants that deeply attracted Ruan Qinchun's attention. These jade pendants looked very ordinary, but she liked them very much.

  For some reason, she always felt that these small jade pendants were unusual. The Snow Mirror Rong, who was sleeping on her wrist, suddenly discovered the chain of Qianlian crystal next to it, which could make it evolve quickly, and at this moment, it emitted a soft glow.

  The lotus spirit seemed to have also sensed the unusualness of these seven jade pendants, and a pair of big eyes shone with a faint luster.

  The vendor was an old woman, with white hair and a hunched back, looking extremely aged. Her tattered clothes made her look particularly disheveled. Perhaps it was because she looked too disheveled that no one had paid attention to her small stall all along.

  "Grandma, I want these seven small jade pendants! I wonder where these pendants came from?"

  Ruan Qinchun's slender fingers pointed at the small gourd pendant, her voice as clear as a spring, extremely pleasant to hear.

  "These seven small jade pendants were picked up by the old lady in the mountain. If you like them, young man, I'll sell them to you at a cheaper price."

  The old woman's face, full of wrinkles, floated with a warm smile. Seeing someone showing concern, she said in a flurry. Looking at her flustered and awkward appearance, it didn't seem like the other vendors here were so familiar. It seemed to be her first time selling things, and also forced by life, that this white-haired old woman, at this age, still came out to make a living.

  "The young man thinks it's fine, so just go with it!"

  "Hmm!"

  Ruan Qincheng put down a gold coin and picked up seven jade calabashes with her hand, holding them in the palm of her hand.

  A group of people walked forward, and the old woman finally saw clearly that there were gold coins on the table. She had thought it was just her eyes playing tricks on her. Only when she picked up the gold coins in her hands did she dare to believe her own eyes.

  For a moment, hot tears welled up in his old eyes. With this gold coin, his little grandson's illness could be saved.

  Ruan Qinchun walked along the edge, looking at the jade calabaza in her hand. There were seven small and exquisite jade calabazas, each with a different color. One was like purple glaze, another was like rosy clouds, one was as white as snow, one shone like gold, one was as bright as emerald, one was as clear as the blue sea, and one was as dark as ink in the quiet night. In the moonlight, they reflected a brilliant and transparent glow.

  Through the cherry blossom tree with lanterns hanging on it, she saw that each gourd actually had a word in it.

  The purple gourd has a "night" character in the center, like mist gathering. The red gourd has a "maple" character in the center. The white gourd has a "wave" character in the center. The golden gourd has a "sheng" character in the center. The green gourd has a "dust" character in the center. The blue gourd has an "xuan" character in the center. The black gourd has a "wing" character in the center.

  These jade calabashes are seamless and flawless, so how were those characters carved into them?

  "What's wrong, little dust?"

  Yin Lv Feng saw Ruan Qincheng suddenly stop in his tracks and turned around to ask.

  "Huh? There's actually my name in this red calabaza, is Xiaochen planning to give it to me?"

  "Haha, I just discovered that there are words inside too. It seems it has a lot of fate with you! If you want it, it's not impossible. When the business empire's network covers the five countries and seven seas, I'll give it to you!"

  Ruan Qinchun shook the jade gourd pendant with her fingers, smiling brightly. The jade gourds in her hands collided with each other, emitting a clear and soul-stirring sound.

  "Xiao Chencheng, you are indeed a shrewd and unscrupulous businessman!"

  Yin Lv Feng looked at her with a sly smile like a fox and sighed helplessly, rubbing his temples.

  "Hehe, too kind! I believe you can do it too!"

  Ruan Qincheng put away the jade calabaza in his hand, and his face was radiant with spirit, making it impossible for people to look away.

  "Alright, I'll take your auspicious words! I will definitely become a peerless and unparalleled great merchant! At that time, all the beauties in the world will surely throw themselves into my arms! Haha!"

  Yin Lv Feng revealed a charming smile, feeling extremely good as he used his fingers to tousle his hair. His black locks danced in the night wind, outlining a captivating curve. His red clothes fluttered, seductive and alluring.

  "Xiao Yinzi, I suddenly realized you're really beautiful!"

  Ruan Qinchun's eyes gazed at him with a hint of sincerity.

  "Really? What's beautiful about it?"

  Yin Lv Feng met her gaze, his heart skipped a beat, and he hastily asked excitedly.

  "Beautiful thought!"

  Ruan Qincheng patted his shoulder and said very seriously.

  "Pffft——"

  Lan Junxiao saw Yin Lv Feng's smug smile and suddenly collapsed, finally unable to hold back her laughter.

  "Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!"

  Lotus heard this and directly used her chubby paws to cover her belly, patting Ruan Qindeng's shoulder, and laughed out loud!

  Even Huan Yan's small cherry-like lips curled up with a faint arc.

  "Xiao Chencheng, this is a ruthless blow!"

  Yin Lv Feng said with a resentful tone, his voice more bitter than a wronged wife.

  "Xiao Yinzi, you're finally honest!"

  Ruan Qincheng nodded very honestly, and seeing his melancholic handsome face made her feel especially good. It seemed that she was getting more and more perverted!

  “……”

  Yin Lv Feng gazed up at the sky in silence, letting out a long sigh.

  "Now, with girls being so fierce, how are we, these innocent guys, supposed to survive?"

  "You can be not a real man, just make one cut!"

  Lan Junxuan's words were cold and stern, causing Yin Lv Feng to shiver involuntarily.

  "Cough cough, Xiao Song, don't be so foul-mouthed!"

  Ruan Qinchun covered her mouth and smiled lightly, feeling the peaceful and warm atmosphere, her heart also warmed up.

  A group of people walked through an alley, around a cherry blossom forest, and saw a simple wooden house standing in the midst of the cherry blossoms. A well with clear water was just outside the house. A string of orange-yellow lanterns hung under the cherry blossom trees, illuminating a small table outside the house, making it exceptionally bright.

  "This is exactly what I said!"

  Yin Lv Feng walked forward, ordered six bowls of flat meat, and then found a clean spot to sit down.

  "This small store's business is quite good, although the location is a bit out of the way, there are still many people coming to eat."

  Ruan Qincheng saw that several tables next to them had people savoring the flat meat, and with both hands supporting her head, she said slowly.

  "Good wine isn't afraid of deep alleys!"

  Yin Lv Feng smiled and said, his eyes occasionally falling on her face. It could be seen that she was very happy tonight, the smile on her face warmer than usual.

  Lan Junxiao and Huan Yuan also sat on the chairs, silently listening to their conversation.

  "By the way, Lv Feng, do you know where my parents are now?"

  Ruan Qincheng faintly asked, the note in the brocade pouch only said that they had left the imperial capital to live in seclusion, and she didn't need to worry about anything. However, they didn't specify where they went, which made her feel quite helpless.

  "This old man and his wife have never mentioned it, but if I'm guessing correctly, they should be in Cloud Valley."

  Yin Lv Feng sank into thought for a moment, her enchanting voice slowly saying.

  "Cloud Valley!"

  Ruan Qinchun's lips moved slightly, and she whispered two words softly.

  "That's right! The lady and Yun Gu's medical immortal have a deep relationship. They must be there!"

  Yin Lv Feng said resolutely that his intelligence network couldn't find a more suitable place for hiding.

  "Hmm, after I return from the Academy of Heaven Concealing, I will definitely go to Cloud Valley."

  Ruan Qincheng said firmly, with a pair of bright and shining eyes that sparkled with moving colors.

  "Is Xiaochen planning to go to Yezheng Academy?"

  Yin Lv Feng was knowledgeable and well-informed, so he naturally knew the great name of the Zhe Tian Academy. This sacred temple of the ancient clan, he had heard his master mention it before. He didn't expect that Xiao Chenchen would actually go there!

  "That's right, the destination of this trip is indeed the Xiangtian Academy."

  Ruan Qinchendefinitely replied, and a hint of longing color surged in his eyes.

  At this time, six bowls of flat meat have been served, and the aroma is overwhelming. The white transparent flat meat looks like flowing clouds in the bowl. On top, there are sprinkled green onion flowers, looking simple and elegant with a mix of pale colors.

  Ruan Qinchun picked up the spoon and tasted it. The filling of this flat meat was small, but the flavor was extremely rich and mellow, and it was especially fragrant and crispy to eat. The most delicious part was still the soup simmered from pork bones, with a little vinegar added for seasoning, making the flat meat even more savory and aromatic to eat.

  Lotus and Snow Mirror each occupied a bowl, eating happily on one side.

  Lan Junsheng ate quickly and quietly, indeed a professional killer. Even when eating, he was silent and stealthy.

  The elegant and leisurely way of eating is a pleasure to behold.

  "Is it delicious?"

  Yin Lv Feng looked at Ruan Qin Chen expectantly, and when he saw her nodding in satisfaction, the corners of his lips rose high.

  "Wow, look! The dragon dance is coming!"

  A little boy at the next table cheered up with joy.

  The crowd heard the words and looked back, only to see a group of people dancing with huge dragon lanterns, walking towards this side. The person in charge held a colorful bead to play with the dragon, and the dragon's head rotated with the bead. The people behind each held a section of the dragon lantern, following closely behind, moving up and down, left and right, looking very spectacular.

  The sound of gongs and drums, rich in rhythm, rings out!

  As the dragon lantern approached, more and more onlookers gathered around, filling the surrounding area with a festive atmosphere.

  Rumble...

  When the dragon lantern passed by Ruan Qincheng and several others, it suddenly exploded. The soaring flames, swept away with thick killing intent, burning fiercely.

  A lone warrior with a white blade in hand charged into the sea of flames.

  Everyone was frightened and fled in all directions. However, the dead soldiers were ruthless, killing both old and young indiscriminately, leaving no one alive.

  At the moment of the explosion, Lan Jun's Soul Star Disk flashed in his hand, and a fire isolation boundary condensed beside them. These dead men were clearly rushing towards his sister!

  I didn't expect that my sister and I were careful all the way, but we were still caught up by them.

  These lingering fellows should be turned into real ghosts!

  When Ruan Qincheng saw that the dead soldiers didn't even spare children, a fierce anger suddenly rose up in her eyes. However, the spiritual energy she had consumed today had yet to recover, and seeing their inhumane slaughter, her fists clenched tightly. With a thought, the Dragon Tooth Sword appeared before her.

  Ruan Qincen's eyes, cold and detached, emitted a strong killing intent. In her mind, she recalled the sound-killing technique that Huoshen Yue used during their battle, every move of his was replayed clearly in her mind. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration appeared in her mind, her slender fingers brushed against the strings, plucking out a cold and mournful note.

  Don't think she's easy to bully!

  Is it so interesting to relentlessly pursue and kill her?

  She would make them know that offending her came at a price they couldn't afford!
