Seeing the figure of the woman in purple in the distance blurring slightly, she suddenly turned into a wisp of smoke and drifted away in the wind.
Gao Yuan subconsciously guided the vision of the talisman of the 'Qian Yuan Order' and followed the opponent.
With the help of the blood-colored energy crystal filaments that were slightly deformed due to disturbance in the surrounding area, he could faintly observe a spherical fuzzy area about ten feet in size.
At this time, the latter was flying away from near to far at an incredible speed towards the outside of Laiyuan Town.
"Have you really left?"
Gao Yuan whispered in his heart, but still did not relax his vigilance.
Instead, he continued to guide the special vision of the 'Qianyuan Order', sweeping the space around him back and forth several times.
After confirming that there was really nothing unusual, he breathed a sigh of relief.
For some unknown reason, when facing this purple-shirted woman who called herself 'Zhuyun', he could always feel a strong sense of crisis from her with the help of his spiritual sense.
There is no specific reason for this feeling. Perhaps it is the way the other party still feels fearless when facing the best talisman. Perhaps it is due to the strange movement skills of the other party that can come and go freely, and the strength that has not yet been revealed. Maybe it is the other party carrying,
Some kind of powerful secret treasure.
"Of course, it may also be the psychological shadow caused by the fact that the other party almost controlled his mind during the face-to-face meeting just now, right?"
Thinking of the strange mental state he had fallen into just now, he couldn't help but laugh at himself in his heart.
No matter what, after this potential sense of crisis appeared, he chose to trust his spiritual sense without even thinking about it.
After all, no matter which situation the other party is in, it shows that it has the ability to directly threaten you!
When the issue of your own safety has not been resolved and the other party has taken the initiative to give in, keeping each other in peace is undoubtedly the best choice!
"There are still shortcomings!"
When he thought of this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
After confirming that the other party had really retreated, he no longer delayed and planned to condense the magic formula so that he could re-seal the 'Qianyuan Order' that he had no time to use.
At this moment, with the help of the vision of the talisman that had not receded, he suddenly discovered that the halos flowing inside the blood-colored energy crystal filaments hanging down from high altitude were rapidly fading.
"Hmm? This is it?"
Gao Yuan's heart suddenly moved, and he quickly guided Fu Bao's vision to look around.
As far as the eye could see, the ubiquitous bloody energy crystal filaments that originally shrouded Laiyuan Town were quickly dissipating at a speed visible to the naked eye, no matter how far or near they were.
And outside the city wall in the distance, the blood-colored light curtain like a chasm was also melting and disintegrating at an extremely fast speed!
At the edge of the city wall at the end of the field of vision, many residents of the city who were originally blocked by the blood-colored light curtain could be seen swarming towards the outside of the city.
"What's going on? The city's lockdown is out of control?"
Gao Yuan muttered in confusion, and subconsciously turned his head to look at the giant beetle silhouette above the Yu family's mansion in the distance.
However, they saw that although the opponent had not collapsed at this time, it was much more illusory than before, and the bloody light beam projected from the huge mouthpart at its front had also become much dimmer than before.
"No matter what the reason is, since the blockade has been lifted, let's take the opportunity to leave the place of right and wrong first!"
As soon as he thought of this, he quickly kneaded the formula with his right hand and clicked twice on the 'Qianyuan Order'.
Following his actions, the power of the latter's burst into the sky quickly subsided. After the brilliance in the sky faded away, it returned to its original appearance before being activated, and he conveniently put it into the storage space.
Then, he ducked to the corpse of the round-faced middle-aged man, reached out and hooked his waist, and the black storage bag was thrown up by his toes, and then caught by him.
in hand.
"Leave here first, find a safe place after leaving the city, and then divide the accounts!"
The moment he took the storage bag, Gao Yuan quickly sent a message to the woman in red beside him.
The latter didn't waste any time and just followed him and flew out of the city.
When passing the ruins caused by the self-destruction of the centipede monster transformed by Yuke, Gao Yuan paused slightly.
He put his hand at his waist, and a 'Whip Holder' card appeared in his hand.
After being pushed a little by him, it was thrown straight towards the center of the explosion of the centipede monster.
The latter fell to the ground, trembled and disappeared suddenly, and then saw an extremely faint light and shadow emerge, spreading silently in all directions.
After a while, except for a faint fluctuation in the surrounding space, there was no trace of the strange phenomenon left in the place.
"Well, in this way, the purpose of coming to Yuan Town this time will be achieved!"
After finishing all this quickly, Gao Yuan nodded with satisfaction.
Then he stopped stopping and accelerated towards the outside of the city.
·
When Gao Yuan stopped briefly to activate the 'Whip Holder' card, the woman in red did not leave first, but stood aside and watched his movements quietly.
When she saw him taking out the palm-sized metal card, the woman in red's eyes flickered slightly, but she still didn't express anything.
It wasn't until Gao Yuan excitedly threw out the card and took action again that he followed him silently and flew towards the outside of the city.
…
"You don't want the trophy? What do you mean?"
Gao Yuan frowned slightly and looked at the woman in red opposite with some confusion.
At this time, they were on the top of a medium-sized hill more than 70 miles away from the northern suburbs of Laiyuan Town.
The process of leaving the city for the two of them went very smoothly before. As the blood-colored energy crystal filaments collapsed, the 'no air' restriction in Laiyuan Town was quickly dismantled.
After recovering their flying ability, the two of them arrived outside the city not long after.
After that, he flew all the way and soon arrived at the top of this hill.
Originally, according to Gao Yuan's plan, he would find a secluded place after leaving the city and divide the things seized from the round-faced middle-aged man with the woman in red. He would leave here as soon as possible.
After all, with the death of Yu Ke, the purpose of his trip has been successfully achieved.
And because today's matter is related to 'Ember', Yifeng City will definitely not give up after receiving the news.
It is foreseeable that in the future, Laiyuan Town will become a place of trouble and chaos, and it will not be stable in a short time.
For this reason, to be on the safe side, he would naturally stay as far away from here as possible, and would not consider coming here again in the short term.
Unexpectedly, when he took out the black storage bag and prepared to share the stolen goods with the other party, the woman in red refused directly.
"That's right, I didn't even do anything to the person behind him. It was you who killed him all by yourself. The proceeds from the items on his body should belong to you."
The woman in red paused briefly before saying:
"Besides, the main reason why I snatched the storage bags from those people just now was to find a way out of the city. As for the belongings of these 'Ember' beasts, I won't take them even if they are thrown on the ground."
"Tsk tsk! People in the city are so arrogant!"
Gao Yuan sighed in his heart when he heard the words. Seeing the other party's determination, he felt that he was short of money, so he did not play the trick of pulling and pulling with the other party again.
He turned over his hand and put the black storage bag into his pocket, and then planned to say goodbye to the other party.
Just as he casually exchanged greetings with the other party and was about to activate the Wind Curse to leave, he suddenly heard the woman in red calling out:
"Wait a moment!"
"Eh? What, are you... regretting it?"
Gao Yuan paused after hearing this, muttering something in his heart, and turning his head to look in surprise.
"I saw you triggered a card when you left the city just now. Are you the 'whip bearer'?"
The woman in red hesitated for a moment, then suddenly said something unexpected.
"Is there any problem?" Gao Yuan frowned slightly when he heard this. He did not respond directly to the other party's words, but just asked a question.
"No problem, I just see you often performing missions, and I happened to hear about this organization in your Exile Alliance, so I just asked casually."
Having said this, the woman in red seemed to have made some kind of decision, the hesitation on her face disappeared, and she continued quickly and calmly:
"I have a commission here. If you are interested, I plan to entrust it to you."
"oh?"
Gao Yuan's heart moved when he heard this, and he said with slight interest:
"About what aspect? Let's talk about the specific situation."
"About an ancient ruins..." The woman in red looked at him calmly, and then spoke slightly.
…
A few minutes later, Gao Yuan cupped his hands towards the woman in red who called herself "Fei Ru" and said:
"Miss Feiru, it's settled. I will return in advance. The specific mission schedule can be informed by the messenger talisman at the appointed time, and I will attend the appointment on time!"
Hearing the other party calling himself 'old man', Feiru raised her eyebrows subconsciously, but in the end she didn't speak and just nodded.
Gao Yuan didn't wait any longer, and directly activated the Wind Curse. Under the action of a whirlwind from the ground, his body floated into the sky, and then turned into a ray of light and shadow and shot straight into the sky.
After just a few flashes, he moved away from the hilltop below, flew northeast for hundreds of miles, then turned southeast and flew toward the wild forest.
·
In the air, Gao Yuan maintained the high-speed operation of the blast spell while recalling the conversation he had just had with Fei Ru.
The other party was very cautious. After he swore on his inner demons not to leak this conversation to anyone, Feiru gave him a brief introduction to the situation of this mission.
In fact, the thing is quite simple. It was by chance that Feiru discovered a secret entrance to an ancient ruins a few years ago.
According to what she said, the entrance she discovered was not actually the official entrance to this ancient ruins.
It was a gap that was accidentally exposed after an earthquake a few years ago.
It is said that most of the various restrictions in this ruins have been destroyed by the earthquake, and only some powerful puppet guards are still guarding it.
The task commission that Fei Ru mentioned just now is for Gao Yuan to accompany him to explore this ancient ruins.
As a reward, Feiru will pay Gao Yuan 30,000 intermediate spirit stones in one lump sum as a deposit for this mission before the operation begins.
After the exploration of this ruins is completed, regardless of the specific income, Feiru will pay another 20,000 intermediate spiritual stones as the final payment for this mission.
At the same time, 20% of the items harvested from this ruins exploration will be used as a commission, which will be paid to Gao Yuan together with the balance.
"The guaranteed income is 50,000 intermediate spirit stones, plus a 20% exploration commission. The children of these big families are really generous!"
Thinking of this, Gao Yuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
"Well, the mission is at the end of this year, and there is still more than half a year left!"
"If nothing else happens, my cultivation should reach the peak of Kaiyuan Realm by then!"
"Coupled with the extremely powerful top-grade talisman, there should be few people in the entire Kaiyuan Realm who can be my opponent, even the descendants of those super powerful forces!"
"From what Fei Ru said, the puppet guards who have been found in this ruins are all at the Kaiyuan level in strength. Even if the number is a bit exaggerated, as long as they are fully prepared, it won't be a problem!"
After muttering a few words to himself, he then remembered the subsequent conversation between the two:
"You should be from a certain Hunyuan family in Yifeng City, right? Why don't you ask someone from the family for help instead of asking me, an outsider?"
After Feiru briefly introduced the mission situation, Gao Yuan directly raised his own questions.
"Because I am a concubine, and secondly, I am a woman." Fei Ru was silent for a moment and said in a calm tone.
"That's it!" Gao Yuan suddenly understood after hearing this.
For a Hunyuan Realm family with a long life expectancy, a female descendant of a concubine does not have a high status in the family. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is a high-level retainer.
Even if she were lucky enough to discover such an existence like the entrance to ancient ruins, once she rashly reported it to the family, it would be almost impossible for the final profits to fall on her head.
Unless the thing finally recovered is a common item such as a spiritual stone, the clan will generally not deduct too much from her.
But if the thing discovered is something rare and rare in the world, then the probability of it falling on her head is very low. If she is exhausted, she will only be given a symbolic reward.
As his thoughts turned around, he suddenly asked curiously:
"Come to think of it, we have only met twice, so why are you so trusting of me?"
"Of course I'm not at ease, so before the commission officially starts, you still need to sign a soul resonance contract with me as a binding constraint." Feiru said without thinking after hearing this.
Hearing this, Gao Yuan immediately understood that he was actually no stranger to this so-called 'soul resonance contract'.
When he issued intelligence collection tasks in the alliance mission area before, he had issued targeted collection tasks for various common contracts.
Its mechanism of action is somewhat similar to the Oath of the Inner Demon, but in actual use, it is much more convenient than the latter.
After the contract is signed, a special 'seed' can be planted in the souls of both parties within a certain period of time.
Any breach of contract by either party during this period will detonate the 'seed' in one's body, causing one's soul to suffer severe damage, which may even endanger one's life!
·
"It's not easy!"
"Even the children of these big families, unless they are willing to be ordinary, will have to walk on thin ice on the road of spiritual practice!"
After restraining his somewhat divergent thoughts, Gao Yuan sighed in his heart.
