Chapter 908: Chapter 907: The Truth (Part 1)_1
Women’s intuition is often much more sensitive than men imagine. Many uninformed people think that Shi Xiaole is enamored with Xi Xianglei, and that’s why he rushes to the Drunken Spring Breeze every day.
But Xi Xianglei doesn’t see it that way.
The adoration of a person can be felt in their gaze and actions.
Looking into Xi Xianglei’s compelling eyes, Shi Xiaole knew that to continue deceiving her would be to insult her intelligence. He could only say, "Miss, Gui Zhihang is my friend, so I want to know about Gui Nanyan."
Xi Xianglei said, "As I suspected. When you discreetly inquired about Gui Nanyan, I guessed it. For the sake of a friend, you would risk being in such a dangerous place?"
"I’m also anxious about the safety of the Miss."
Xi Xianglei smiled, whether in belief or ridicule, no one knew.
"Every time Gui Nanyan comes to look for me, he takes the opportunity to speak with the Great Dragon Head. So, the information you want should be with the Great Dragon Head."
Shi Xiaole was stunned for a moment, having thought he wouldn’t receive any news, yet things took an unexpected turn.
Xi Xianglei, however, sighed inwardly.
From others’ perspective, it was a mild statement to say Shi Xiaole was overestimating himself—it should be sheer delusion. The imperial edict had been issued, even if it was proven that the Gui Family was innocent, death was certain.
Moreover, Xi Xianglei did not believe that Shi Xiaole could find evidence to prove the Gui Family’s innocence.
The power of the Great Dragon Head was already unfathomable, and with several important figures within the Drunken Spring Breeze, combined with the power of the Array System, who could force the Great Dragon Head to reveal the truth?
A more realistic concern was that Shi Xiaole was entangled with the Divine Sect. Whether he could even leave was in question.
Shi Xiaole had naturally thought of the various difficulties and frowned slightly. But he was a man of action and immediately sought out Han Yanfa, expressing his wish to leave.
"The Sect Leader said, unless there’s some major issue, Hall Master Shi can make arrangements freely."
Han Yanfa was also bewildered.
That’s not right. When had the Sect Leader become so laissez-faire, especially with a newcomer like Shi Xiaole?
Receiving an affirmative answer, Shi Xiaole decided to set off without delay. What no one expected was that Xi Xianglei was also permitted to leave with Shi Xiaole.
It was said that Witch Granny crazily barged into the harem and, not long after, she marched out with an ashen face. Without saying a word, she shattered several small mountains behind the hill.
"The shameless pair of you won’t be pleased for long!"
The shout spread throughout the Divine Sect.
Inside the harem.
Mu Qianji lay on the bed, enjoying the gentle massages of the women, with a smile on his lips.
The Heavenly Charm Bones and the Pure Yang Heavenly Gang Body were the two ultimate physiques for men and women in the legends of the Divine Sect. Once combined at the moment of union, absorbing the forces of yin and yang simultaneously, it could certainly bring her divine skills to the peak, making her the first and highest expert in the history of the Divine Sect.
Then, dominating the Martial World and ruling the world would be within reach.
The only trouble was that for a man and woman to combine, their hearts and minds must be in harmony to maximize the power of yin and yang. Alas, they needed more contact with each other.
In annoyance, Mu Qianji fiercely grabbed the breasts of the woman in front of him, finally feeling somewhat relieved.
...
"You’re going back to the Drunken Spring Breeze?"
On the carriage back to Sky City, Xi Xianglei had narrowly escaped danger and was still somewhat in disbelief. Although she did not know Mu Qianji’s intentions, she had an intuition that it concerned Shi Xiaole, so her tone was inevitably tender.
"If I don’t go there, I won’t get what I want."
Shi Xiaole did not open his eyes.
Because, over the past few days, with the breakthrough in the path of life-and-death martial arts, coupled with the accumulated transformation, he distinctly felt that the Wind Sword Way was on the verge of another breakthrough.
"Even without revealing your Void Origin Realm strength, the Great Dragon Head is not someone you can handle, trust me."
Xi Xianglei felt somewhat pitying, seeing Shi Xiaole remain silent, clearly not taking her words to heart, which made her both angry and helpless.
The carriage did not head straight for the Drunken Spring Breeze, but instead stopped in a secluded place. Since it was not the same carriage Xi Xianglei had ridden before, the spies sent by the Drunken Spring Breeze did not discover them.
The carriage remained stationary until late at night.
A wisp of extremely faint fluctuation suddenly emanated from the carriage, quickly dispersing into a gentle yet prolonged breeze that blew for dozens of breaths before finally subsiding.
"Wind Sword Way, finally reached ninety percent of the late stage."
Shi Xiaole slowly opened his eyes.
Above the sea of his consciousness, the tip of the azure small sword was especially clear, a point of cold light as if ready to puncture through the flesh at any moment, piercing everything in the world.
Wind Sword Way is a half-Supreme Martial Arts, and its late stage at ninety percent is equivalent to the late stage of a top martial arts at one hundred percent. Some Void Origin Realm Martial Emperors’ martial arts realms are just this.
And Shi Xiaole’s Vigorous Air, even if not as strong as that of a Void Origin Realm Martial Emperor, wouldn’t be much less.
So theoretically, Shi Xiaole at the Divine Barrier Realm ninth level might be able to contend against a Void Origin Realm Martial Emperor. Even if he couldn’t win, he could still escape. Just thinking about this notion sent shivers down the spine, it seemed so absurd and laughable.
But Shi Xiaole was actually considering its feasibility, and even wanted to find a Void Origin Realm Martial Emperor to test it out.
"Do you want to get out of the carriage first?"
Shi Xiaole looked at Xi Xianglei.
"On the contrary, going to Drunken Spring Breeze is even safer for me."
She was a valuable tool for the Great Dragon Head to win over talented men, and would definitely not be harmed before achieving her purpose.
Shi Xiaole thought it made sense, so without wasting any more words, he gave an order, and the Divine Sect’s coachman immediately drove the horses at full speed towards Drunken Spring Breeze.
Drunken Spring Breeze.
The Great Dragon Head was somewhat anxious.
He had gone to Albizzia julibrissin Valley but hadn’t found Xi Xianglei. It wasn’t that he trusted those two, but rather that he didn’t feel the mental prohibitions in Xi Xianglei’s mind.
So who had taken action?
Thinking of Xi Xianglei’s disappearance and the impact it would have on the plan, the Great Dragon Head’s face contorted, revealing a faint beast-like ferocity.
Thump, thump, thump.
In the night, Du Ziyan suddenly rushed in, saying, "She’s back, Jun Yi is back... "
The Great Dragon Head abruptly turned and his body flashed out.
Behind Drunken Spring Breeze.
Tension filled the air.
Shi Xiaole stood in front of Xi Xianglei and said, "Let your Great Dragon Head come out and talk."
"Emperor Shi Xiaole, although you are powerful, don’t push people too far. Some people are not for you to provoke at this point."
Six people stood opposite, all of them half-step Void Origin Experts. Such figures, usually elusive as a dragon seen only in glimpses, would cause a sensation in the Martial World with just one appearance, and Drunken Spring Breeze was hiding six of them.
However, Shi Xiaole could see that the aura of these six people was unstable, not as strong as that of Fujiki Naotsugu, and most likely they hadn’t obtained their strength through normal cultivation.
Too lazy to talk, Shi Xiaole thrust out with his sword, aiming at one man, but to the six facing him, it looked as if it were pointed at each of them.
Clack, clack, clack, clack, clack, clack.
Six light sounds merged into one as six half-step Void Origin Experts were simultaneously sent flying backward, each with a red dot on their chest.
"This..."
"Fake!"
Screams of terror echoed out loud and under the breath.
Even Xi Xianglei was stunned.
She didn’t know that three Protectors of the same rank had been defeated by Shi Xiaole together.
"Emperor Shi Xiaole, what is the meaning of this?"
The Great Dragon Head appeared on the pavilion in the distance, his expression enigmatic, with a suppressed fury.
