After Bing Ji took on his human form, it was just too different from his temperament. Lou Mu Yan suddenly felt that it would be better for him to just turn into a bird.
“Owner, how do I compare to that red-clothed male beauty?” Bing Ji destroyed his elegance in an instant the moment he opened his mouth.
Lou Mu Yan rolled her eyes at him, “Ming Xiu is much more handsome than you.”
This was the truth. Ming Xiu had a noble temperament, and he occasionally had a devilish charm, though his attitude was very cold. Yet the contradictory combination made one feel that this should just be how he should be.
As for his appearance, there was even less of a need to compare. The deep features of Ming Xiu were as if they were carved from a divine axe, his phoenix eyes were serene and deep, as if one would be sucked into them, and he was so handsome it was otherworldly.
With his thin lips pressed together, he was like a peerless sword that was restrained in its scabbard, and when drawn, who could compare.
She had met many handsome men when she came into the competition space—such as Luo Li’s sunny handsomeness, Luo Ye’s noble and etherealness, Si Nan’s androgynous look, He’lian Lie’s romantic and suaveness, and although each had their own merits, but whether it was their overall temperament or their appearance alone, none could beat Ming Xiu.
“Owner, you really are ‘in the eyes of the lover, her beloved is a beauty’.” Bing Ji rolled his eyes.
Although Ming Xiu was indeed outstanding in temperament and incomparable in appearance, but he firmly refused to admit that he, himself, was worse than him.
Lou Mu Yan glanced at Bing Ji, “If you don’t speak, no one will treat you as mute.”
Bing Ji pursed his mouth and mumbled: “What’s so good about that red-clothed handsome man.”
Speaking of Ming Xiu, Lou Mu Yan’s eyes revealed a rare trace of warmth. She wondered how that guy was now?
Lou Mu Yan was a little puzzled. If the person who saved her that day was Ming Xiu, then why wouldn’t he truly appear in the competition space?
Then she composed herself and took out the flying-type Magic Tool that she won.
This flying-type Magic Tool gave her a more and more dangerous feeling. That palpitation of fear should originate from here.
If she threw the Magic Tool away and changed her location, then she might be able to temporarily avoid the crisis, but she didn’t want to sit still and wait. If something bad really happened, then it would become a bigger hidden danger in the future if she ignored it now.
She didn’t like to leave things half done, so since she couldn’t escape it, then she’d just wait.
“Owner, you’ve been looking at this flying-type Magic Tool a lot recently. Is there any problem?” Bing Ji came over and asked curiously.
“Mm. There’s a Soul-Arresting Array in this flying Magic Tool. If I drip my blood to be recognised as Owner, then my Soul may be forcibly detained by the other party’s spell.” Lou Mu Yan didn’t conceal it either. The several Spirit Pets and her had already laid their hearts bare to each other and could all be trusted.
Hidden in the inconspicuous and intricate patterns of the Sumeru Light Boat was the Soul-Arresting Array. If it weren’t for her advanced research in Arrays, then she’d also be unable to find it.
Bing Ji was startled, “That Smith is so vicious. Owner, then why don’t you throw this flying Magic Tool away?”
Being able to manipulate the flying Magic Tool and sculpt a complex and difficult Array like the Soul-Arresting Array, only that Grade 5 Smith could do it.
“So what if I throw it away? I have a feeling that he’s precisely coming for me.” Lou Mu Yan’s eyes were solemn with a rare killing intent, “Instead of sitting in fear and waiting for death, it’s better to lure him out of his cave and think about how to eliminate this hidden danger.”
She didn’t know if she had a feud with that Great Master Wu or not, but since he dared to do something to her, he would have to pay the price of her revenge. She sure wanted to see what he wanted to do.
“That’s true, if such a hidden danger isn’t eliminated, then we can’t rest peacefully on our pillows.” A coldness flashed past Bing Ji’s eyes.
He had never been a kind Demon Cultivator. He just usually covered up his murderous desire in his heart.
If one wanted to scheme against his Little Owner, then they’d have to ask him whether he agreed or not.
At the same time, a bloodless and unusually pale middle-aged man rushed towards Lou Mu Yan’s location on a flying Magic Tool similar to the Sumeru Light Boat.
That girl actually entered a Class 1 Danger Zone. But that was fine. In a Danger Zone, the Image Reflection Array wouldn’t be able to monitor anything, which was more convenient for him to act.
Yes. The area where Lou Mu Yan was located was precisely the periphery of a Class 1 Danger Zone in the competition space.
What Great Master Wu thought of was exactly what she was thinking. For some of her means and trump cards, she didn’t want others to know.
‘How could one obtain a tiger’s cub without entering the tiger’s den’. She had always had a kind of madness in her bones, and she just liked to challenge difficult things.
Two days later, Lou Mu Yan sat in the wooden hut, drinking Spiritual Tea, holding the Earth Rank Sword Skill in her hand, and quietly flipping through it.
Suddenly, she looked up at the door, and her lips raised into a cold arc, “Since Your Honour is here, why don’t you come in and drink a cup of tea to quench your thirst?”
Bing Ji had turned into a Seven-Coloured Parrot, standing on Lou Mu Yan’s shoulder. Hearing what she said, he couldn’t help but look out the door vigilantly.
The black mist in the pendant on Lou Mu Yan’s neck suddenly dissipated, revealing the figure of a man in black, his face still unable to be seen clearly. He opened his eyes and probed out with his Soul Energy with interest. With a free play to watch, why not?
He also wanted to use this situation to see whether this woman named Lou Mu Yan was worthy of further cooperation and transactions with him or not.
After she finished speaking, she saw a man with a pale face and enchantingly red lips walk in.
“You knew I was coming?” Great Master Wu stepped into the room lightly and sat down opposite Lou Mu Yan.
Lou Mu Yan had a faint smile on her face, but there wasn’t much warmth in her eyes. She reached out and poured a cup of tea for the person opposite, “I’ve been waiting for you for a long time, aren’t you a bit too slow.”
Great Master Wu’s eyes narrowed, and after a while, he laughed aloud, “You, girl, really are extraordinary. It seems that you have already seen through the problem on the Sumeru Light Boat.”
“I also didn’t expect that Great Master Wu, who is well-known across Tian’ling Continent, would actually use such despicable means like engraving a Soul-Arresting Array on the flying Magic Tool that was auctioned. You might not feel ashamed, but I sure feel disgusted for you.” Lou Mu Yan smiled lightly and ridiculed, her words rather mean.
What this Great Master Wu did was really disgusting and she felt that she couldn’t curse him enough.
A bit of anger appeared on Great Master Wu’s face and his expression changed a few times. Then he regained his composure, took a sip of the Spiritual Tea in front of him, and said slowly: “Good tea. It’s a pity you can’t drink it for long.”
He didn’t expect Lou Mu Yan’s attainments in Arrays to be so high. If it weren’t that only her Soul could save his beloved wife, he wouldn’t want to act against such a genius either.
“Since we’ve already spoken this much, why don’t you talk about your purpose?” Lou Mu Yan also wondered why Great Master Wu would want her life.
She had never seen him before, and he didn’t have any hatred for her in his expression. There also seemed to be a hint of helplessness in the killing intent.
“Because only your Divine Soul can save my beloved wife.” Great Master Wu reached out and refilled a cup of Spiritual Tea for himself.
Lou Mu Yan and his beloved wife had a blood connection, so it was fine to let her die with understanding.
“Beloved wife? Ha, why didn’t I know that my Divine Soul had such use.”
Lou Mu Yan sneered and lowered her eyes, her long lashes concealing the look within them.
