So Wind

Upon hearing Zhao Manyan's words, Mo Fan suddenly remembered something.

Aren't the Ailin family dragon traders?

Moreover, she is the first heir of the family!

With Tang Miao's status as his underling, who knows, he might actually be able to get his hands on a full-service operation?

"Don't think about it. I haven't contacted her for a long time since the National Prefecture Competition ended," Tang Miao said, turning around after listening to their conversation.

To be honest, he also missed Ailin quite a bit; after all, those long legs, that soft, yielding... tsk tsk...

How nostalgic!

However, considering that I haven't spoken to her for so long, and she hasn't spoken to me either, it's probably not a good thing...

"Boss Tang, you should learn to cherish this. With Ailin by your side, you'll never have to worry about food or drink. Besides, she's the next heir to the family fortune. Aren't you interested in that enormous wealth?" Zhao Manyan added.

"I would never covet her family fortune," Tang Miao said very seriously.

Apas said, "But that's not what you really think."

"I'm not interested, but my descendants might be." He was quite helpless at Apas's little snake-like trickery in contradicting him.

However, he really had no interest in her family fortune. But if she were to become pregnant with his son in the future, the first heir would definitely be surnamed Tang.

"Shameless!" Ling Ling exclaimed at this moment.

"How is that shameless? I'm earning a legacy for my descendants through my own abilities, what's wrong with that?" Tang Miao said, completely unconcerned.

After all, if Ailin really had her own child, she would fight for it for him.

He didn't need to do anything at all.

"Hmph~"

Ling Ling and Apas were very disdainful, while Mo Fan, Zhao Manyan, and Zhang Xiaohou all gave a thumbs up.

It must be said, this statement seems to make absolutely no mistake.

Li Dexin had just finished putting on a show when he discovered that Tang Miao and the others were discussing such shameless things. He was speechless for a moment...

Don't they even know where they are?

Don't they think their dragons are very strong?

Okay... it's not as powerful as Tang Miao's Summoned Beast, but it's only a bit lower in level. If his sub-dragon also reached the Monarch realm, it would be no weaker than his Summoned Beast. After all, this is Earth Sub-Dragon with True Dragon blood!

Even without his dragon making a move, all the lesser demons and monsters were completely scattered by a single roar of dragon might. This made the journey much smoother. Otherwise, killing those patrolling Demon Capital would have wasted a lot of time, and if they weren't killed, they would have kept howling endlessly!

"Faced with absolute power, no troublesome Demon Capital can truly pose a threat. Your previous methods of entering the Qinling Mountains were too simplistic," Li Dexin said, looking at Zhang Xiaohou with an air of self-importance.

"Things aren't that simple," Zhang Xiaohou said calmly.

To think that one can do whatever one wants in the Qinling Mountains with just a single, immature, sub-dragon would be rather naive...

Li Dexin didn't respond, but his expression seemed to be telling Zhang Xiaohou that with such strength, experience was irrelevant.

Although he was putting on an act, afterwards, the noise finally stopped, and everyone felt much better. Having a wyvern around really made things easier. The lower-ranking creatures would smell the dangerous scent on the wyvern and naturally give way to it.

Before they knew it, they had been walking for a day. As night fell, the Qinling Mountains became extremely cold, and the winds grew fierce.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~~Waaah!!!"

"..."

The strong wind sounded like a cry, which was particularly eerie. The group had originally planned to set up camp under a cliff, but the wind grew stronger and stronger, and the crying sound spread throughout the entire mountain range.

"This wind sound is so eerie," Zhao Manyan said.

"We've had terrible luck; we ran into So Wind on our very first night here," Zhang Xiaohou said with a wry smile.

Mo Fan paused, then said, "Didn't this So Wind just pass by?"

"The So Wind doesn't follow seasons or time of day; it's very unpredictable. I thought it would stop for a while after blowing for more than a week, but it only stopped for a day before starting again..." Zhang Xiaohou explained.

Li Dexin, refusing to believe it, stretched out his hand, and immediately felt the power of the So Wind...

"It doesn't seem that scary, does it?" He didn't seem to feel any terror at all, and said to Zhang Xiaohou.

"This is just a sign. We can't camp here anymore. We must find the Curtain Tree as soon as possible, or we'll run out of magic energy before dawn."

At this moment, Zhang Xiaohou was too lazy to engage in any more verbal sparring with him, after all, this concerned everyone's safety.

While Li Dexin was somewhat cocky, he wasn't blindly arrogant. At least for a while, he really couldn't be sure if he could withstand the cutting force of the fierce wind...

The dark, steep mountain ridge was battered by a fierce wind. The group moved quickly through a winding, swift mountain stream. The wind, which had been just a biting cold not long ago, had now undergone a qualitative change. It was not only difficult to walk, but it also carried a strong erosive force, causing people's skin to crack inexplicably.

In this situation, everyone has no choice but to erect a defensive barrier. The force that continuously scrapes against the skin will indeed turn a person into a pile of bones over time.

Clearly, Li Dexin, who had previously kept quiet, had also realized the terrifying power of the So Wind; the terror of nature was indeed not just a figure of speech.

"It's so dark, how are we going to find the Curtain Tree?" Staff Officer Xu from the Purple Gold Army asked with slight concern.

The only way to deal with the So Wind is to find the Curtain Tree.

Everything in the world has its counterpart, and this Curtain Tree, a large plant known as the guardian of the Qinling Mountains, is distributed irregularly throughout the mountains. Its branches and leaves are quite unique; the branches, like willow branches, droop down after reaching a certain height, while the leaves climb and intertwine after multiple branches have drooped down, forming layer upon layer of leaf curtains beneath the tree. The strong winds of the So Wind have little effect on this plant...

But you have to understand that even during the day, the lush green Qinling Mountains make it difficult to distinguish the different types of vegetation, let alone in the pitch-black night.

"Damn it, the wind is getting stronger and stronger, it's like my skin is going to peel off!" Zhao Manyan complained, cursing.

Having a girl can be a huge motivator for him, but if there's danger involved, he can turn into a complete shrew...
