Tang Dieyi spread out a pair of brilliant Light Goddess Butterfly wings behind her, and the pale golden scales fluttered down in the sunlight. She flapped her wings and slowly rose into the air, overlooking the chaotic alleyway over the crowd of heads.
A dense crowd squeezed into the narrow alley like a black tide, extending from the alley entrance to half a street away. Even the rooftops were filled with people watching the excitement. Broken black clay pot shards were spread on the ground in a thick layer, mixed with blood and mud, exuding a disgusting fishy smell. Cries, cheers, and debt collection calls from loan sharks were intertwined, like an invisible net, trapping everyone in it.
"Tang San...Tang San Where are you?"
Tang Dieyi's voice was trembling, and her eyes quickly scanned every corner, trying to find that familiar figure in the vast sea of people. But all she could see were faces distorted by greed and madness, and there was no trace of Tang San at all.
She flew around and around, her wings were a little sore, but she still couldn't find Tang San. Just when she was about to despair, she caught a glimpse of two familiar figures at the corner of the alley.
Dai Mubai was leaning against the wall, holding five brand-new black clay pots in his hands. His face was blue, his eyes were bloodshot, and he looked exhausted. Ma Hongjun was squatting at his feet, holding his knees and sobbing, his shoulders hunched. There were seven or eight smashed empty pots thrown on the ground, which were all filled with useless broken stones and rotten wood.
"Dai Mubai! Ma Hongjun!"
Tang Dieyi immediately flapped its wings and flew over, landed in front of them, and put away Martial Soul.
Dai Mubai suddenly raised his head and saw Tang Dieyi, with a hint of surprise on his face. "Tang Dieyi? Why are you here?"
"I'm looking for Tang San." Tang Dieyi grabbed his arm eagerly, "Have you seen Tang San? I've been looking for him all day, but I can't find him anywhere."
When Tang San was mentioned, Dai Mubai's face darkened. He shook his head, stuffed the black clay pot in his hand into his arms, and said in a somewhat irritable tone, "I don't know where he went. Since he opened the Blue Silver Grass seed here three days ago, he said he would practice in seclusion, and then disappeared."
"Retreat?" Tang Dieyi's heart sank suddenly, "Where did he go to retreat? Did he say when he would come back?"
"I didn't say anything." Ma Hongjun raised his head, his nose red from crying, "That day he opened the jar, looked at the seed for a long time, and then told us that he wanted to find a quiet place to retreat and break through level 30. We thought he was just looking for an empty room in the academy, but we went back and looked for it several times, but we didn't see him."
"Did he say anything strange before he left?" Tang San came over at some point and stood behind Tang Dieyi, looking at Dai Mubai with cold eyes, "Did he mention the seed?"
Dai Mubai frowned and thought for a while, then shook his head. "Nothing special. Just say that the seed is extraordinary and fits his Martial Soul very well. As long as he absorbs the power in the seed, he can immediately break through level 30, and even directly hit level 35."
"He also said..." Dai Mubai paused and said hesitantly, "He also said that when he comes out of seclusion, he must defeat the person named Endless Life and let everyone know that he is the real genius."
Tang San's eyes instantly turned cold.
Of course he knows who Tang San is talking about.
It seems that the failure on Soul Fighting Arena that day and the truth in the pine forest have completely stimulated Tang San. Now all he can think about is getting stronger and defeating himself, regardless of whether there is anything wrong with the seed.
"There's something wrong with that seed."
Gui Mengguan also came over and said solemnly, "Everything Yao Wuji sells is not for free. Soul Bone Inhale luck, Soul Ring Sucking luck, even those useless broken stones and wood will suck away a ray of luck. The seed that can resonate with Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul was definitely released by him on purpose, with the purpose of targeting Tang San."
"Aiming at Tang San?" Tang Dieyi's face turned pale, "Why would he target Tang San? Tang San has no enmity with him."
"Because Tang San has the highest luck among all people." Qian Gujue sighed, and the coins on his fingertips turned quickly, "He is the protagonist of the original work, and he is responsible for the luck of the entire continent. Yao Wuji stealing the luck of ordinary people is just a small trick. If he can absorb Protagonist Halo from Tang San, he can reach the sky in one step, directly unlock the highest level item pool, and even become a god directly."
"What?!"
Tang Dieyi staggered back and almost fell to the ground. She couldn't believe that Yao Wuji's target was actually Tang San. That seemingly ordinary Blue Silver Grass seed turned out to be a trap specially designed to swallow Protagonist Halo.
"No, I must find him!" Tang Dieyi suddenly raised his head with firm eyes, "I must find him before he absorbs that seed! Otherwise he will be finished!"
With that said, she was about to unfold Martial Soul again and fly out.
"Don't go." Gui Mengguan quickly grabbed her, "The whole alley is packed now, and it's useless for you to fly in the air. And since Tang San is hiding on purpose, he will definitely not let us find him. He has now been carried away by the idea of becoming stronger. Even if we find him, he will not believe our words. He will only think that we are jealous of him and want to prevent him from becoming stronger."
"Then what should we do? Are we just going to watch his luck being sucked away by that seed?" Tang Dieyi was so anxious that tears almost fell down, "If something happens to him, how can I be worthy... how can I be worthy of everyone?"
Locke held Big-Eared Hood and looked up at Tang Dieyi with his clear blue eyes full of worry. "Sister Tang Dieyi, don't worry. Kawazhong's nose is very good. We can let Kawazhong smell Tang San's scent to find him."
"Yes!" Tang Dieyi's eyes lit up and he quickly looked at Kawazhong, "Kawazhong, please! You must help me find Tang San!"
Kawazhong flicked its tail and nodded. It lowered its head and sniffed on the ground, then ran to the place where Tang San had smashed the jar before and smelled it carefully.
After a while, Kawazhong raised his head and growled in the direction outside the city.
"Outside the city?" Gui Mengguan frowned, "He actually went outside the city to go into seclusion?"
"They must be afraid that we will disturb him." Tang San said coldly, "Let's go and have a look outside the city. Even if he doesn't believe us, we have to bring him back. We can't let him be destroyed in the hands of that Evil God."
After all, you are still another yourself, so don't lose your mind and fall easily.
