Chapter Thirty-Six: The Scarlet Eye
The capital city, as the imperial capital of the Fengyan Dynasty, is far less magnificent and prosperous than a small remote town like Yancheng.
And Qionglou Inn, as a relatively famous inn in the capital, can also be called luxurious and upscale.
When he came to the room, lying on the soft silk bed, Bai Chen was still recalling what happened in the past few days.
The Assassins of Hades Sect who returned to the Yuan Realm, Lin Mengyao who broke the Yuan Realm, and the guards of the National Teacher's Mansion, the people they met were no longer the Liu family could relate to.
Lao Xia told him that the identity of a spiritual master cannot be known by outsiders, so he needs to use the ability of a spiritual master to deal with everything.
But right now, Sky Splitting Palm is still unable to exert its due strength, and his hole cards are all focused on the drunken eight immortals.
"It's time to find a few bottles of century-old wine!"
Bai Chen doesn't worry about good wine, after all, this is the capital city, the most important thing is good wine and beautiful women.
It's just that he's not quite satisfied with his weapon yet.
Back then, when he was galloping across the mainland, he used the ancient artifact "Moon Zhan", and with a single swing of his sword, he split the sky and split the sea!
But now, what he uses is nothing more than a long sword made of ordinary materials.
How can people who are used to delicacies from mountains and seas swallow rough tea and light meals?
Compared with fine wine, weapons are much more expensive in terms of price. Judging from the little money he brought with him when he left the Bai family in a fit of anger, he might not even be able to buy a good sword tassel.
"Ugh--"
With a soft sigh, Bai Chen's eyes flickered.
If you want to prepare everything before the exam, it seems that you need to find another way.
He didn't choose to practice immediately, but had a good sleep first. You must know that things are always reversed, and proper rest is also one of the important links to improve strength.
In the middle of the night, in a room overflowing with sandalwood, Bai Chen closed his eyes and fell asleep. As he breathed in, a faint spiritual light circulated in his nose, which was very strange.
As the spiritual light circulated and then spread into the spiritual veins in his body, his spiritual source was also subtly strengthened.
This miraculous effect was not even known to him.
"Woo woo woo..."
In the silent night sky, a girl's cry suddenly came. The sound was endless, but it was clearly transmitted to Bai Chen's ears, causing him to open his eyes immediately.
"This cry is so familiar!"
Gazing at the delicately carved ceiling beams, Bai Chen frowned, and gradually sat up.
On Kuanjie ancient road in the middle of the night, except for the occasional night watchman who passed by, there was no shadow of a pedestrian.
On the eaves of the Qionglou Inn, a young girl in Tsing Yi sat with her knees hugged. The cold wind blew her black hair, and under the moonlight, she revealed a beautiful face that was alluring and touching.
However, the tear stains on her face and the empty eyes in her eyes added a lovely sadness to her untouched face.
"Don't sleep in the middle of the night, hide here to watch the scenery?"
Bai Chen's voice came from behind the girl, making her delicate body tremble violently.
Hearing this familiar voice, she quickly wiped away her tears with the corner of her sleeve, and said nonchalantly, "I can't sleep, I just came out to get some air."
"Oh."
Responding lightly, Bai Chen came to Lin Mengyao's side, sat side by side, and accompanied her to enjoy the awe-inspiring night view of the capital.
The cold wind blows, bringing a burst of comfort.
"I'm sleepy, I'm going back to rest."
Without too much explanation, Lin Mengyao got up and was about to leave when a big hand grabbed her snowy wrist.
Feeling the warmth from her wrist, she turned her back to Bai Chen, her voice was low and weak: "What are you doing?"
Staring at her back, Bai Chen still didn't let go: "What's the matter, it's worth you secretly hiding under the moon and crying?"
"I didn't cry!"
She tried hard to shake off his hand, but she struggled several times, but still couldn't free herself.
"Anyway, I'm bored." Looking at her long hair cascading down like a waterfall, Bai Chen said with a faint smile, "Tell me what you're unhappy about, just to make me happy."
"I'm not in the mood to joke with you, let go." Lin Mengyao's tone was unusually cold.
"..."
Still not letting go, Bai Chen held her wrist tightly, waiting for her to speak out.
"I told you to let go, do you hear—!"
Lin Mengyao shook his arm violently and let out a cry.
The powerful force instantly shook Bai Chen's palm away, and the gap between the nine-star Yuanyuan Realm and the seven-star Primordial Spirit Realm was obvious.
"Are you trying to prove to me that you are strong?"
With a helpless sneer, a strange spiritual light flashed under Bai Chen's feet, and an afterimage was drawn out of his figure, and he came to Lin Mengyao in an instant.
Just as he raised his head, Lin Mengyao hurriedly turned his head to the side and said angrily, "Don't look at me, hurry up!"
She didn't let him see it, and he became even more curious.
Flying like lightning...!
With a muffled groan in his heart, Bai Chen's speed increased dramatically in vain, and with a "whoosh", he appeared in front of Lin Mengyao.
"Ah!" Unexpectedly, he still possessed such strange body skills, Lin Mengyao quickly covered his face with his hands, and said angrily, "I told you to go away, why don't you understand!"
She didn't want him to see something, and it was for his own good.
However, after a pair of big warm hands lightly grasped her cold hands, her self-contained heart still fluctuated quietly.
Carefully parting her hands, when Bai Chen saw her face clearly, his eyes turned from plain to deep horror!
This... What kind of eye pupil is this? !
At this time, on Lin Mengyao's childish face, his pupils were like rubies, exuding a dark red light.
When Bai Chen changed to a spiritual teacher, his pupils would also turn dark red. That's because he had a pair of unique pupils in his previous life—ghost eyes!
But, what are her crimson eyes...? !
When she looked up and saw his tongue-tied expression, Lin Mengyao hurriedly broke away from his palm and turned her back again.
"I said it all, I won't let you see it..."
The girl's Tsing Yi fluttered slightly in the cold wind, without fluctuations in spiritual power, but suddenly exuded infinite murderous aura.
Bai Chen, who is very sensitive to killing intent, quickly noticed her change, and immediately smiled lightly: "Are you trying...to kill me?"
"I'm sorry, I promised my mother that anyone who sees the scarlet eye will die!"
Suddenly, Lin Mengyao's killing intent multiplied like a flood descending a mountain.
This killing intent was even stronger than the Hades Sect witch I saw in No Man's Village before!
No, she didn't kill innocent people indiscriminately...
It was the power of these pupils that made her lose her heart...!
Staring at the frail figure surrounded by waves of light, Bai Chen's eyes were full of solemnity.
If this girl is serious, she is definitely a strong one!
If he wanted to subdue her, he could only switch to the status of a healer, but in this way, the aftermath of the battle would definitely alarm the strong in the capital.
what to do……
What is the so-called scarlet eye!
