"Please stop, you two."
Zi Nu felt a little sorry for her screen, the expensive wooden floor, and the damaged Grandmaster carvings and murals on the ceiling and walls.
"Kid, your strength is still lacking." Xiao Tian dispelled the Life Shield effect of his Heaven-Equaling Divine Ability - Copper Head and Iron Arms, and stared at Wei Zhuang.
Wei Zhuang, a successor of the Ghost Valley Sect's Horizontal Swordsmanship!
He's handsome, aloof, and wealthy—the epitome of a domineering CEO!
Wei Zhuang sized up Xiao Tian, finding Xiao Tian's previous methods novel, as they were methods he had never seen before.
"Witchcraft?"
Xiao Tian almost rolled his eyes, but after considering the level of martial arts in this world, he smiled.
"Want to learn? I can teach you."
Wei Zhuang turned around, ignoring Xiao Tian, and walked towards the main entrance.
"This person is very strong and poses a great threat. I suggest expelling him from the Purple Orchid Pavilion." These words were spoken to Zi Nu.
" Wei Zhuang, aren't you curious about his identity?" Zi Nu asked, one hand resting on her slender waist, her beautiful eyes darting between Wei Zhuang and Xiao Tian.
"I see, you're colluding with the proprietress to get rid of me and steal my money, aren't you?" Xiao Tian feigned ignorance, a smirk playing on his lips. He pretended to rummage through his pocket, then pulled out a handful of pearl necklaces, gemstones, agate, and jade.
The jewels and sparkles, making the room shimmer with color.
Wei Zhuang stopped in his tracks.
He had seen plenty of pearls, agates, and jade, and didn't care much for wealth. But it was quite interesting that someone as arrogant as Xiao Tian could produce jewels containing something unique.
"As expected, Zi Nu was right. The jewels you possess are no ordinary objects; they possess a special aura." Wei Zhuang turned and returned to the table.
"Since you two are curious about my identity, then I'll just tell you straight away," Xiao Tian chuckled.
Zi Nu and Wei Zhuang pulled out chairs and sat down, listening attentively.
"Actually, I come from the distant Southern Continent. I crossed the sea and went through many hardships to reach this continent, so I am not a citizen of the Seven Kingdoms. I am an unregistered person now," Xiao Tian said frankly, while looking at Zi Nu and Wei Zhuang.
"Young Master Xiao, you still haven't revealed your identity, and please stop making things up." Zi Nu smiled.
Xiao Tian couldn't help but roll his eyes; he had indeed told some truth, okay?
"Fine, just consider me a descendant of a fallen Imperial Family from a superpower. As for these things on the table, they're hush money to keep me safe here for the rest of my life."
"Spend the rest of your life?" Wei Zhuang asked expressionlessly, taking out a piece of Ancient Jade sword-shaped token with visible internal energy flow from among the jewelry on the table.
"I'll accept this item and protect you for three years, provided you remain in Han State and do not become my enemy."
Upon hearing this, Zi Nu almost rolled her eyes.
"Hehehe, then that's one of us, Zi Nu Beauty. What about you? I don't mind having a beautiful bodyguard." Xiao Tian leaned back in his chair like a lord, looking quite content.
"Provided you do not harm anyone in the Purple Orchid Pavilion, I will protect you for three years and provide you with food, drink, and lodging for three years." Zi Nu took away a Starfire Glazed Jade Pendant and a Phoenix Pattern Jade Plaque.
"Oh my, you two have such sharp eyes! It's settled then. My purpose in coming here is actually to retire. Also, if there's any big show going on, be sure to let me know in advance." Xiao Tian said, yawning as he reminded Wei Zhuang and Zi Nu.
Wei Zhuang held his sword, expressionless, and did not move.
Zi Nu stood up, swaying her hips as she walked towards the door, then suddenly turned and asked, "Want some midnight snacks?"
"Of course, prepare extra too, the two little ones next door, plus that beauty hiding away, need some as well."
Zi Nu glanced around, but finding no trace of Yan Lingji, she left.
"Isn't my protection enough?" Yan Lingji appeared and sat down next to Xiao Tian.
Wei Zhuang glanced at Yan Lingji Yan Lingji, surprised by her remarkable concealment, and then closed his eyes.
Afterwards, the late-night snack was finished, and the night quickly passed.
At dawn, Zi Nu Heavenly Query.
Xiao Tian couldn't help but feel that as his wealth was spent, the level of treatment he received improved, including the privilege of being woken up by beautiful women.
"Young master, have you ever heard of the Hidden Dragon Hall of the Peasant School?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Tian's memories were awakened. According to the normal course of events after Han Fei returned to the country, the ghost soldiers borrowed a passage, and the military pay was seized by the ghost soldiers of Zheng State, causing a shock throughout the court and the country. The officials who thoroughly investigated the case died mysteriously one after another, and the clue to uncovering the secret was in the Hidden Dragon Hall, and it was sent out by the Purple Orchid Pavilion Master, the beautiful Zi Nu, in front of him.
"Never heard of this place. Is it some kind of unusual place?"
"Of course." Zi Nu poured tea for Xiao Tian, her breath sweet as orchids, and explained, "There is a place within this Hidden Dragon Hall where rare and precious treasures of the world are traded. With any of the treasures you possess, young master, you are sure to be able to trade for something you desire."
Xiao Tianxin raced.
At this moment, the Six Paths Bodies Animal Path sent back a message, summoning him over.
"Beautiful Zi Nu, I have no interest in that place. How's the Tenten? If it's nice, it's a good day to go out for a walk."
"I'm sorry to disappoint you, young master, but the weather is not pleasant today; it's overcast." After pouring the tea, Zi Nu sat down and began to eat the pastries.
"What a coincidence, the weather is perfect for sleeping. Goodnight, beautiful Zi Nu." Xiao Tian yawned, got into bed, pulled the covers over his head, curled up into a ball, and then left the big log behind, being summoned by the Animal Path.
It is about twenty miles Xinzheng City.
When Xiao Tian appeared and saw the white-haired, blood-robed, sword-wielding handsome man fighting fiercely with the Deva Path Body, as well as a group of soldiers lying unconscious on the ground, and the visible pale green poisonous mist in the air, Xiao Tian couldn't help but laugh.
"What's going on with Bai Yifei, the Blood-Clad Marquis, one of Ji Wuye's four demon generals?"
" World Fragment," the Animal Path said.
"Interesting." World Fragment appeared in Xiao Tian's hand, and the nine-colored glass shimmered with white light.
Xiao Tian used his Ruyi Divine Ability - Seventy-Two Transformations to transform into the appearance of Madara Uchiha and approach the battlefield.
Blood-Clad Marquis Bai Yifei possesses extremely high strength. He can unleash ice dragons with his dual ice swords and easily create an ice crystal world, demonstrating a level of supernatural power that has allowed him to enter the realm of cultivation.
"Hehehe, we should really have sent Miss Yan Lingji. After all, the Miss Yan Lingji from the original timeline was captured and defeated by this Blood-Clad Marquis Bai Yifei."
Thinking of this, Xiao Tian hid behind a rock and used his innate ability: Teleport, to return to the Purple Orchid Pavilion.
Purple Orchid Pavilion, Xiao Tian's house.
Zi Nu noticed something was wrong with Xiao Tian's bed. A grown man was curled up asleep, covered by a silk quilt, but why were there several bulges?
The Zi Nu approached.
"Young Master Xiao, sleeping like this isn't good for your health." Zi Nu deliberately lifted the silk quilt.
Suddenly, Xiao Tian appeared from under the silk quilt, causing it to bulge even more. Zi Nu was startled and couldn't help but step back.
Xiao Tian sensed his surroundings, transferred the wood into the system's cloud storage space, pulled back the silk quilt, and stared intently at Zi Nu.
