Chapter 77: The Mysterious Smoke Spirit (Second Update)

  The phantom was already very familiar with Qi Bei's wolf-like gaze, and her heart skipped a beat as she turned around to escape.

  Zhi Bei suddenly reached out like lightning and grasped Phantom's small hand, gently pulling her into his arms.

  "Don't... uh..." The shadow's words were cut off, and her small mouth was covered by Qi Bei's large one. Her gaze scattered like water, becoming dazed and confused.

  The intimate moves of touching and kissing had become routine between the two, but every time, Huan Ying still felt his heart racing wildly, as if his soul had floated into the clouds, dancing among the soft cloud layers, his entire being melting like ice and snow in his lips and tongue.

  Both of their clothes were soaked through, and they hugged each other tightly, with every part of their bodies clearly felt by the other.

  His big hand didn't want to be idle, sliding down from the slender waist of the phantom, coming to her two full and plump buttocks, his fingers probing into the deep crevice.

  The phantom suddenly stiffened like being electrocuted, and her hands subconsciously pushed forward.

  Zi Bei hugged the phantom and fell into the creek water. His left hand pressed down, but it happened to press on a spring eye.

  The gushing spring water struck the divine dragon seal on his left palm, but it only brought about a wave of scorching heat from the seal, and a thread of air escaped from above and flowed down towards the spring.

  However, the aura on the dragon seal probed a few meters before it could no longer advance.

  At the same time, the black long sword on Qi Bei's body also trembled slightly.

  There's something strange under this spring...

  Zi Bei hugged the delicate and charming Xiang Ying and stood up, then quickly retreated back into the room.

  After a while, the two of them changed into dry clothes and came out. Huo Lie ran over and said that Yan Ling, one of the three spirit girls, had arrived.

  In the main hall of the City Master's mansion, Qi Bei saw Yun Ling covered in a cloak.

  "The Star Master has me tell you that the Shadow has sent someone to negotiate with the Star, and they plan to unite the three major forces to deal with you together." Yanling saw Qibei and said directly without any nonsense.

  "Haha, Shadow can't hold it in anymore? What's the situation?" Qi Bei burst out laughing, as long as Shadow dared to jump out, he could uproot this force.

  "Tomorrow, the three major forces will set up camp at Kai Tian Kou on the border of Xiling City and the Barbaric Domain. To dispel concerns from both sides, each of the three major forces will bring twenty people, while you can bring one hundred people to go." said Yan Ling Dao.

  "What's Tiankou?" Ziqi raised an eyebrow, he wasn't quite clear about his surroundings and didn't know what Tiankou was.

  "Kaitenku is a raised circular area with an open view all around, so we don't have to worry about ambushes," said En no Ozunu.

  "Heh heh, but in fact, the real ambush is out of sight. Tell me, how do they plan to deal with Young Master Ben?" Qi Bei said with a faint smile.

  Yanling remained silent, her beautiful eyes staring at Qibei, as if sizing him up.

  "Alright, let me take a guess. Although the view from the Heavenly Gate is broad, it's still some distance away from the Western Spirit City. I'll bring 100 men, and you have 60 on your side. It seems like I'm at an advantage, but in reality, as soon as I arrive, I'll fall into your trap. Your troops can completely surround me from all sides after I get there, and even if we engage in a large-scale magical battle, you won't need to worry about destroying the Western Spirit City." Qi Bei said slowly while stroking his chin.

  Yan Ling's beautiful eyes lit up, but she still didn't say a word.

  "They didn't dare to do anything to me, but the Black Armor Army around me would have been annihilated. The remaining Black Armor Army in Xiling City was leaderless and easy to deal with. I was driven out of Xiling City in a sorry state, on one hand losing all credibility in Xiling City, and on the other hand, as long as my life is not in danger, it's unlikely that my family would send troops to avenge me." Qi Bei continued.

  Yan Ling smiled and looked at Qi Bei with a gaze that shone with an inexplicable light, somewhat like the taste of a mother-in-law choosing a son-in-law, which was really a bit absurd.

  "Not bad, you guessed it right. They said that your status in the Nuo De family is not high, otherwise they wouldn't have sent you to Xi Ling City. Another thing, I heard that the conflict between the royal power of the Golden Leaf Empire and the aristocratic families is getting deeper, with both sides restraining each other. If you were to return to your family in a sorry state, your family won't even send troops to help you take revenge, because this would give your emperor a handle to grasp." Smoke Spirit said.

  Qī Běi smiled slightly, they also guessed quite accurately, if he slunk away with his tail between his legs, he would only be looked down upon.

  Yan Ling said that her task should be considered complete, but she hesitated several times as if there was something difficult to say.

  "Speak up if you have something to say, I'm getting impatient." Qi Bei said, having already sensed that something was off from her gaze.

  "You... you... forget it, I'm leaving." Yan Ling lightly opened her red lips several times, but the words got stuck in her throat. In the end, she looked somewhat disheartened, biting her lower lip as she turned to leave.

  It's inexplicable! Qi Bei rolled her eyes and said, "Whether you want to say it or not, it's better if you don't. That way, you'll save yourself some trouble."

  Yan Ling walked to the entrance of the hall and suddenly turned around, saying loudly: "Will you be good to Xing Zhu in the future?"

  "Ah?" Qi Bei was stunned, his eyes wide with shock, could it be that she knew about him kissing Murong Xingchen? There's no way Murong Xingchen would tell her about this.

  "You're the first man that Xing Zhuang is willing to get close to, let alone letting you push her out the door. Even I and Ruo Feng Piao Xue, Xing Zhuang wouldn't let us push her around or listen to our words to go out for a walk." Yan Ling said this with a hint of jealousy.

  "Is it just because of this?" Zhi Bei couldn't help but burst out laughing.

  "Don't laugh!" Yun Ling shouted loudly.

  "Alright, I won't laugh." Qi Bei suppressed the smile at the corner of his mouth, but the amusement in his dark eyes couldn't be concealed.

  "If you're mean to the star master again, I...I'll die trying to kill you." Smoke spirit's beautiful eyes flashed with determination, and she stomped her foot before turning around and running out.

  Zi Bei was speechless. He had kissed Murong Xingchen and even walked with her for several streets, but afterwards, she didn't seem to have any special feelings towards him, and instead appeared somewhat cold.

  "These days, there are women everywhere who lack a few screws in their heads." Zhi Bei muttered to herself, suddenly remembering Mu Rong Xing Chen's physique, which seemed to be poisonous all over, even her tears were extremely potent.

  Thinking of this, a hint of sympathy suddenly surged in Qi Bei's heart. This must be the reason why she had always been unwilling to see sunlight and had always wrapped herself up tightly.

  At this time, Qi Bei looked at her left hand and found that the dragon seal had a kind of aura that could dispel the poison she released, but it was hard to say whether it could completely clear the poison from her body.

  "Let's try it later, now go and take a look at the spring of that small stream, what's so strange about it." Qi Bei thought to himself as he walked towards the backyard of the city lord's mansion.
