Jiang Yi originally planned to go to Cloud Smoke City to take a look.
He glanced at the map and saw that the distance was approximately six thousand li.
In between lies a city called "Flying Flowers"!
Then we'll have to enter Flying Flowers City first!
Then, head to Cloud Smoke City!
Both the former and the latter are significantly stronger than Rock Mountain City in terms of overall strength.
If we absolutely must divide it!
Therefore, Rock Mountain City can be considered a small city, while Yunyan and Feihua are medium-sized cities.
Simply because they are closer to that core area that is said to cover tens of thousands of miles in radius—
Hongcheng!
As evening approached, the setting sun began to sink.
A somewhat old and dilapidated inn was built on one side of the main road.
It stands there all alone!
It looks like it's been around for quite a while!
Lanterns have been lit on both sides of the gate, emitting a faint red glow.
This adds a touch of vibrancy to the inn!
It also reflects the plaque that lies across the middle!
Four large characters were written on it--
"Yuelai Inn!"
Like a bright lamp in the night!
In this gradually darkening world, it attracts travelers on their way!
Get their attention!
"Big brother, do you need a hotel?"
When Jiang Yi arrived at this place, a head with two small braids peeked out from inside the gate.
That's a little girl!
Judging by his age, he's about seven or eight years old!
She tilted her head slightly, blinked her eyes, and stared intently at Jiang Yi.
The voice that came out was childish, revealing a hint of ignorance!
Jiang Yi glanced at her, his eyes flickering slightly!
Then, he nodded and said,
"Live!"
"Someone come here! We have a guest! Come quickly and serve him!"
Big brother, please come in.
Big brother, are you hungry?
Our inn has plenty of wine and meat; we guarantee you'll be satisfied!
As the little girl spoke, she led Jiang Yi to sit down at a table that was polished to a shine.
The waiter also rushed forward!
He was thin, with a slightly pointed chin and a wide grin, giving him a somewhat monkey-like appearance!
After bowing and scraping to Jiang Yi, he took the initiative to lead the wildebeest and pull it into the stable next to him.
"Big brother, please sit down first!"
I'll go to the backyard and get you some wine!
The little girl was very enthusiastic, dressed in a pink outfit, hopping and skipping around!
Like a little colorful butterfly, it dances gracefully!
It makes one feel naturally good about them!
A few breaths later!
The little girl came out of the backyard carrying a white ceramic bowl.
They walked with small, careful steps, looking quite cautious!
Two chubby little hands were raised high and offered to Jiang Yi.
"Big brother, let's drink!"
Inside the ceramic bowl, the wine was clear and without any cloudiness, accompanied by a refreshing aroma.
If it were someone who enjoys fine wine!
They've probably already been itching to take a bite.
Jiang Yi didn't reach out to take it, but shook his head and said,
"I don't drink!"
"..."
The little girl froze on the spot!
Just then, another figure hurried out from the backyard; judging by his attire, he was the innkeeper.
"The hot beef is here!"
"Sir, you're in luck! This was just slaughtered today, it's incredibly fresh!"
"Try it while it's hot!"
The shopkeeper came over carrying a plate, his face full of smiles and very enthusiastic.
Jiang Yi glanced at it, then shook his head and said:
"I don't eat beef!"
In an instant!
The atmosphere inside the inn turned cold!
Five people were scattered around the tables nearby, all gripping their weapons and looking in Jiang Yi's direction.
"Why don't you help me, little sister?"
Jiang Yi remained expressionless, raised his hand, grabbed one side of the ceramic bowl, and tilted it forward.
It was forced into the girl's mouth!
Pour the liquor into it!
"Gurgle..."
The little girl stared wide-eyed, trying to break free, but it was as if she were being held in a pair of pliers.
I can't move!
They could only watch helplessly as the wine went down their throats!
In less than a breath!
He collapsed to the ground as if he were a boneless mollusk.
After struggling and wriggling a few times, the girl's skin peeled away, revealing what lay inside—
A hideous face and a short, stocky build like old tree bark.
That's hardly a cute little girl.
She was clearly a rotten Old Woman in her seventies or eighties!
At this moment, her mouth was open, but she couldn't utter a single word!
He could only glare at Jiang Yi with utter malice!
"Looks like the wine is good!"
"It's enough to make you reveal your true form!"
Jiang Yi spoke calmly.
Even as he passed by, he had already smelled a putrid stench emanating from him.
It turned out to be a dwarf Old Woman disguised as a human!
The devil's crooked way!
Look at that skin, white with a hint of pink, so lifelike, it's probably made of the real thing.
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment!
Jiang Yi's series of actions truly took him by surprise.
He quickly realized what was happening.
"Fourth Boss!"
The shopkeeper cried out in surprise, then flew into a rage, flipping the plate in his hand.
The so-called "beef" clattered to the ground!
You can vaguely see some black hairs mixed in.
Could this cow be a black cow?
The shopkeeper was nowhere to be seen; he was using a plate as a weapon.
It looked like someone was wielding a knife and slashing down!
The blade flashed sharply, revealing its sharp edge!
A dense aura of blood gushed forth like a spring, transforming into streams of black, malevolent liquid that swirled and tore through the air!
This was clearly a martial artist at the Blood Qi Realm Ninth Layer!
But in front of Jiang Yi!
This is undoubtedly like a mayfly trying to shake a tree—far from enough!
With just two fingers extended, it easily caught the butterfly that had turned into a knife.
With a gentle turn, the blood and energy burst forth!
With his flick of the wrist, the sharp black blade flashed, returning to its origin!
Give them a taste of their own medicine!
"Puff!"
A dull thud as flesh was pierced!
To his utter astonishment, the black demonic intent he had unleashed actually rebounded.
Instead, it splits itself in two!
He died a gruesome death at the hands of his own sword!
His eyes, though gradually dimming, still revealed disbelief, bewilderment, and confusion...
[Slayed an enemy at the Blood Qi Realm Ninth Layer, and plundered 93 years of their lifespan.]
Jiang Yi stepped forward!
With a flick of his wrist, a burst of golden light and blood energy erupted, piercing the dwarf Old Woman's brow.
Send her to hell!
[Slay one enemy of the Opening Treasury Second Level, and steal 113 of their lifespan.]
The other passersby around them were clearly part of the same group, exuding a ferocious aura.
They're probably bandits or thieves!
However, in terms of strength, he was far inferior to the two people he killed.
The golden Power of Origin Aspect flows!
As he raised his hand, it transformed into several golden rays, as fast as lightning and comparable to precious weapons.
Even though those people were armed and tried to stop them, it was to no avail!
Piercing through the whole thing!
Before they could even react, they had already collapsed and died.
Five people provided him with two hundred years' worth of lifespan.
When the waiter returned, his sinister smile froze instantly upon seeing the corpses scattered on the ground.
