Situ Mei didn't know what to say, and was about to ask Li Xuan what he planned to do next, when he suddenly saw his face condensed and said: "Shh!"
"What?" Situ Mei was stunned.
Li Xuan jumped over, held Situ Mei's waist with one hand, covered her mouth with the other, and whispered: "Someone is coming, go quickly!"
The two flew out, found a hiding place in the ravine in the distance, and lay down tightly.
"Woo..." Situ Mei struggled a bit, because half of Li Xuan's body was pressed against her. This feeling was so weird that it made her face red, ears hot, and her whole body weak.
"Don't move." Li Xuan held down Situ Mei.
Situ Mei was very angry and thought, why are you treating me like this? I am a woman...
Just as she was thinking this, her eyes suddenly focused on one spot, and for a moment she didn't even dare to breathe.
Several figures rushed to where they were just now, stopping to search.
Among them, there were Suoya and Xiaotoutuo who were scared away by the gold-swallowing beast before.
They all looked embarrassed, with faces full of anger and ferocity.
"Isn't this one of the two boys who cracked the Nine Songs Thirteen Netherworld before? How could he die here..." Xiaotoutuo leaned over to look at Xie Thirteen's corpse and said strangely, "Looking at the wounds on the corpse, it doesn't look like
It was the work of the gold-eating beast."
"It was cut by sharp energy. The person who issued the energy should be around the middle stage of Jindan." Sawyer glanced briefly.
Xiaotoutuo said: "The person who killed him should not have gone far. Let's search separately and report to each other immediately if we find anything."
Sawyer said coldly: "I understand... As long as I am here, anyone who enters the ruins of Huangquan will not be able to leave alive!"
As they spoke, they spread out and searched everywhere.
Seeing that no one was searching in their direction, Li Xuan took out another Earth Escape Talisman and gently squeezed it.
With a "pop" sound, the two figures disappeared without a trace.
After a long time, in a mountain nest dozens of miles away from the ruins of Huangquan, a flash of light and shadow revealed Li Xuan and Situ Mei.
"Huh..." Situ Mei breathed a sigh of relief, then twisted her body vigorously and said, "How long do you want to hold me?"
"Ah?" Li Xuan then realized that he had been holding Situ Mei's waist, and the posture between the two was a bit ambiguous, so he quickly let go.
"I'm leaving." Situ Mei glared at Li Xuan fiercely and said.
"Where are you going?" Li Xuan asked.
Situ Mei said: "What does it have to do with you? The matter of the underworld ruins has been settled. Many people in our family have died, and I have to go back and be punished. Hmm... Although I don't know what happened, I know you must have taken it from it.
What a trick. From now on... don't let me see you!"
With that said, Situ Mei turned around and left.
Li Xuan's voice came from behind: "Hey, do you know any big cities nearby?"
"Why do you ask this?" Situ Mei asked without looking back.
"I have some crystal cores that I want to sell."
Situ Mei immediately thought of the spiritual energy cores that Li Xuan captured from those bronze men when he cracked the Nine Songs and Thirteen Netherworlds.
Each of the spiritual energy cores that can drive the bronze man in the Nascent Soul Realm is a treasure and is worth a lot of money.
Situ Mei hesitated for a moment and stopped: "If you want to sell, you can give priority to our Situ family. I can give you a good price."
"Okay." Li Xuan said without hesitation.
Situ Mei stiffened for a moment, turned around and said angrily: "Hey, did you agree too easily? Aren't you afraid that I will set a trap to kill you and steal your crystal core?"
"Can you do it?" Li Xuan asked.
Situ Mei stiffened again and said angrily: "I can't!"
"Oh, let's go then."
"where to?"
"Go to hell with your Situ family. Otherwise, do you want to trade now?"
"..." Situ Mei was speechless. She couldn't tell whether Li Xuan was a very smart guy or a stupid guy!
Two days later, Youran Realm, Youzhou City!
This is one of the four largest cities in Youran Realm, and it is also the home of the Situ family.
The entire city is like a huge chessboard, with sixty-four blocks distributed, and each block is occupied by a family with a half-step Nascent Soul master.
Every eight blocks constitute a large district, and each large district has a sect formed by the Nascent Soul. The family must contribute various amounts of resources to the sect every year to obtain protection.
And there is another city lord in the middle Nascent Soul stage in Youzhou City, none other than Yun Zun!
The eight major sects in Youzhou City must also contribute massive amounts of resources to the city lord Yun Zun every year in order to gain the qualifications to establish a foothold in Youzhou City.
It is simply a food chain where the big fish eats the small fish, the small fish eats the shrimp, and the shrimp eats the mud.
Who is Mud?
Of course, it is the tribe where low-level immortals such as Evil God and Evil Thirteen belong. According to Situ Mei, their family's main resources are obtained from small tribes within a radius of 10,000 miles of Youzhou City.
This is a world where the strong oppresses the weak, and the forest law of the weak and the strong is vividly demonstrated here.
However, Situ Mei also said that in addition to the resources offered annually, the strong will not ask for more.
Entering Youzhou City, Situ Mei took Li Xuan straight to the "Situ Block" where her home was located. As soon as she entered, everyone on the street would respectfully salute Situ Mei when they saw her.
"Wow, I didn't expect you to be a real eldest lady." Li Xuan said in surprise.
Situ Mei snorted and said, "You just know?"
"I'm a little afraid now that you will set a trap for me." Li Xuan said.
Situ Mei was furious: "Ah! I don't even care about your useless stuff!"
"That's good." Li Xuan nodded.
Situ Mei felt like she was going to be pissed to death. She pointed to the front and said, "The exchange office is right in front. Go and change things and get out. Don't let me see you again in the future!"
There is a large courtyard in the corner of the block. There are seven or eight small buildings in the courtyard. It is the Situ family's external management agency for the entire block.
One of the red two-story buildings was the exchange office. When the two came to the door, the guard immediately bowed and saluted: "Miss!"
Situ Mei waved her hand and said, "No courtesy." Then she swaggered and led Li Xuan inside.
The two of them went up to the second floor. At the end of the corridor, there were many people lined up at the door of a small room, all of them came to exchange various resources.
Someone was carrying a big bag, and it was full and I didn’t know what was in it.
Some people stood with their hands behind their backs, looking very relaxed and not sure what they were carrying.
Some people came out quickly after entering, taking out a bag of things just as they brought them in, their faces full of frustration.
Some people went in for a long time and came out with a spring breeze in their faces and bulging pockets. They must have gained a lot.
When Situ Mei arrived here, she also suppressed the arrogance and indifference on her face, and whispered to Li Xuan: "The person in charge here is my sister-in-law... Please be more respectful later!"
