A Confused Man Lived Longer
It's just that this thing is useless to her; otherwise, she would probably have to pay the price for another night... oh, maybe even several nights...
While looking for a place to rest, Mu Ningxue learned that Tang Miao had actually contracted another Element Pet during this time, and... it was a Medusa that looked like a human!!
"It's best not to go to the Sahara Desert again... it's too dangerous..." Mu Ningxue said breathlessly.
Even though something was making her a little distracted, she still didn't forget to persuade Tang Miao.
"I'm not going. But you, if you don't tell me next time something happens, it won't be as simple as it is today."
As he spoke, Tang Miao slapped her hard, leaving a handprint on her smooth, delicate buttocks.
Mu Ningxue, who had been hit, just stared at Qin Shuo without saying a word...
"This is to teach you a lesson!"
Okay, although there was a hint of a lesson just now, I actually quite liked the feeling...
"Phew... I understand..." Seeing Tang Miao raise his hand again, Mu Ningxue had no choice but to give in.
He's already a bit disoriented; if he gets hit a few more times, he probably won't be able to do anything tomorrow. After all, for some reason... Tang Miao seems to have gotten stronger!
Normally... he should have been completely still by now, like a dead pig, but it seems he still hasn't given up?
"Good to know. Since you corrected your mistake, I'll give you an extra meal tonight!" Tang Miao said, bending down closer to Mu Ningxue as if he were in high spirits.
"Is it okay if we don't have extra food...?"
Mu Ningxue panicked, feeling like she was about to be killed at any moment...
"No."
Unfortunately, Tang Miao had no intention of showing any mercy to her, and regardless of whether she really didn't want an extra meal, he was determined to have her have one!
After all, he only realized today that it wasn't because of Heidi, but because he had genuinely become stronger. He had become stronger without even realizing it!
Of course, he was quite strong in the past, but compared to now, he's somewhat lacking.
If Mu Ningxue knew what Tang Miao was thinking, she would definitely tell him: the difference between then and now is not just a tiny bit...!!
The next day...
Although they only went to bed in the early hours of the morning, they were both full of energy when they woke up.
Immediately, they set off for the Tyrant Mountain Range in Italy; this ceremony could not be completed in just one or two days.
Moreover, if they hadn't found the weakness to counter the Black Dragon Emperor's Dragon Breath, these people would have been no match for him.
But nature is fair. Dragons are inherently powerful; without some restraint, where would humanity find a place to live?
Although Su Lu is a wicked person, from his perspective, he only sees success or failure, not good or bad.
Moreover, among the world's top human fighters, probably only this one dares to challenge True Dragon. Although he came here because he had found its weakness and wanted to conquer it, how many others would bother to provoke True Dragon?
The two were riding on Tang Miao's Sky Eagle- like magical beast. This Sky Eagle had also received special training from Tang Miao. Although it was only used for transportation, it was the one that had received the most training in the dimensional space, second only to Little Black. In fact, it was now Demon Beast at the Commander Level.
We quickly entered a mountainous region with layers upon layers of peaks. The terrain here became higher, and the sky above was not as clear as it had been at the edge of the Mediterranean. Instead, it was covered by a thick layer of cumulus clouds higher up in the sky, so we could hardly see the sunlight. However, because it was so open, we could always catch a glimpse of lightning flashing across the sky.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~!!!!"
Just as they continued forward, a sudden gust of wind swept down, and then a middle-aged man appeared before them. His cultivation was extremely high; even Tang Miao couldn't discern his true strength...
"Wait, I am from the Magic Association... A great battle is about to take place here. If you have business here, please come another day." A middle-aged man who suddenly appeared, hovering ten meters above the ground, introduced himself to the two men, and then stopped them from going forward.
"What great battle? We're here to find out something based on some clues. So many infant hearts were sent here. I want to know who this heartless person is!" Tang Miao said coldly, looking at the man in front of him.
"There is no infant heart here that you are looking for, but the ceremony we are about to hold is based on the heart of a young Titan Giant." The middle-aged man continued, "If you don't believe me, you can come with me to see for yourself, but it's best not to do anything rash. Of course, you won't be able to do anything out of line in front of me. If you don't want to witness this feast, then please leave..."
"Do you know Basham?" Tang Miao asked again.
"I naturally know the internationally wanted criminal. If it weren't for this ceremony, I would be the one responsible for tracking him down."
The middle-aged man said with a hint of sarcasm, "Do you have news about him?"
"Oh, unfortunately, that lackey was in my way, so I took care of him." Tang Miao finished speaking and looked at the other party.
The middle-aged man smiled nonchalantly, showing no surprise, and continued, "Is that so? Well, you've done a great job. From what I've gathered, Basham seems to have been committing evil deeds all along, and recently he's even been targeting some infants. If you hadn't taken care of him, I would have gone to find him myself and dealt with him."
As he spoke, he looked at Tang Miao and said, "Speaking of which, you two have certainly made a contribution. At such a young age, you're already Super Level Mage; truly, heroes emerge from among the young!"
Seeing that he showed no surprise, Tang Miao realized that he must have been nearby when she dealt with Basham.
It's just a pity that I didn't realize it myself...
This means that the opponent's strength is at least at the Level Three of the Super Rank!
Tang Miao then sneered, saying with a hint of sarcasm, "Meritorious service? Killing some insignificant piece of trash counts as meritorious service? Besides, since you've already investigated, did you only find out about it yesterday?"
Although he knew from the start that Basham would be abandoned, he never expected that Basham, whom he had killed, would take all the blame.
Moreover, the most important thing now is that there's no way to prove anything now that the dead have died...
"Oh? Could it be that things aren't as simple as I thought?" the middle-aged man asked again.
However, he wasn't there to report anything. Besides, since the other party was kicking them out, it meant that the person who abandoned them had taken all the blame. As for them being sensible and leaving, everyone could live in peace...
Tang Miao immediately said, "Forget it, I don't want to dwell on this anymore. We're all sensible people, and saying too much is a waste of time. Since your Magic Association is already investigating this matter, then we won't get involved!"
The man was pleased with Tang Miao's tact. "Yes, you can rest assured. Although the damage is done and cannot be changed, once the facts are verified, we will definitely give the victim's family a satisfactory answer."
Mu Ningxue realize that Tang Miao meant she wasn't going up?
He asked with some doubt, "Shall we leave?"
"Let's go. The Magic Association has already taken action, so they don't need us anymore." Tang Miao saw that he seemed to have not told Su Lu, and whether Basham lived or died was of no concern to these people.
Since there's no point in forming a connection and no justice to be gained, leaving is clearly the wisest thing to do.
As for whether Su Lu will be punished, what business is it of his?
He wasn't some high-ranking official, and there were some things he shouldn't have been involved in at all. He didn't want to get involved in the first place, but who knew Mu Ningxue would be tricked into coming by Asha Ruiya...
Otherwise, he should have already returned to his country!
Then Tang Miao left with Mu Ningxue. As for the Magic Association mage who had intercepted them, he left as soon as they disappeared from sight.
Actually, he was present when Tang Miao dealt with Basham, but Tang Miao's Lightning Element was simply too terrifying. The destructive power of the magic after completing the Star Palace drawing was something even he, whose cultivation was much higher than Tang Miao's, couldn't withstand...
So in the end, he hid in the shadows. His talent allowed him to conceal himself from magical aura, which is why even with Tang Miao's mental power, he couldn't detect his presence...
As for how he knew to come here?
That was naturally because he had been following the two of them, but even he was somewhat surprised when he arrived here! He didn't understand how Tang Miao and the others knew about this place; their information network was a bit too extensive!
However, regardless of the circumstances, he felt it was best to prevent this from happening if possible.
It's not a big deal that Basham is dead, but if Su Lu finds out that they've been discovered, and that they're members of the Huaxia National Team, and that influential people are investigating, that would be a very troublesome matter.
Su Lu, as the top official in Dubai, Asia, would naturally be fine, and Su Lu subordinates, who are even more powerful figures at the continental level, would be even less likely to be in trouble, given their status.
But those who appear to hold high positions and great power to outsiders are different. Those who aren't at the very top are actually just dogs under the control of those in higher positions. If they end up getting themselves implicated, wouldn't that be a complete disaster?
Furthermore, Tang Miao had already killed Basham, which gave him an opportunity to testify without any evidence. He then dismissed them by claiming that the Magic Association was conducting a major operation there and that unauthorized personnel were not allowed to enter.
Fortunately, he was sensible and left.
Although everyone knows the truth, sometimes those who can play dumb are the ones who live the longest...
