The pretty girl's voice was so crisp that Zhang Zhentao almost cried when he heard it. His heart screamed, and he became more and more convinced that these two people were old monsters who appeared out of nowhere.
This time it is neither advancing nor retreating.
Naturally, he would not dare to teach him a lesson. If he retorted and scolded him, what would he do if he got angry and killed him?
But if he just let it go, he would not only lose face in front of several allies, but also lose all the prestige he had finally built up based on his family's name.
He was quick-thinking and had already sorted out the stakes within a few breaths.
Reputation and prestige are important, but there is only one life, which is more important or more important. A moment of hesitation is a sign of disregard and disrespect for life.
At that moment, Zhang Zhentao said as if nothing had happened:
"Oh oh oh, it turns out that the senior is greeting my mother. The sound of the waterfall here is so noisy that I couldn't hear it clearly. Please forgive me. My surname is Zhang, and my two-character name is Zhentao. I am a child of the Zhang family in Yuanning Prefecture, and my mother is Li. surname, originally from Dongguang City... She just celebrated her sixtieth birthday not long ago and is in good health. Thank you, senior, for your concern."
…
Mu Haotian was confused by what he said. He couldn't help but raise his hand to touch the bridge of his nose. He vaguely felt that the other party seemed to be afraid of him, but in full view of the crowd, he had no time to think about it and replied casually:
"That's very good, uh... that's very good. I'll visit your mother again someday."
While talking, Yumu turned around on the faces of the other people and found that most of them had their eyes averted and had a look of fear on their faces.
A flash of lightning flashed across Mu Haotian's heart:
"Is it possible that they mistook me for an outsider?"
Unexpectedly, he became brave and raised his voice:
"Where are some of you? Why don't you report it?"
He scanned all the masters with his electric eye and retreated wherever he looked.
Jing Ling was already dumbfounded at the side, but she felt that her senior brother was audacious and arrogant, but the other party continued to tolerate it, suppressing her smile and shouting that it was funny.
Looking up at his senior brother, his eyes were full of little stars, but he was worried that someone would explode, so he quietly leaned forward a little.
Zhang Zhentao was relieved when he heard this, and secretly said that it was a fluke that he finally got through! He coughed lightly and kept sending winks to the side.
The two young men beside him immediately understood and took turns clasping their hands:
"My wife, Xu Yuqing, is from the Xu family in Haixing County. My mother is Wu, originally from Wuqiao Town... She is 47 years old this year. She is in good health. Thank you, senior, for your concern."
"My wife, Zheng Qiming, is from the Zheng family in Suning County. My mother is Ren. She is originally from Renjiazhuang... She is fifty-two this year. She is in good health. Thank you, senior, for your concern."
Pei Yong was hesitant, but when he saw the young man's eyes suddenly falling on him, his heart trembled, and he could only bite the bullet and said:
"My dear, Pei Yong, was born in the Tengren tribe in the Guyi Islands in the southern region of Lanhai. My mother is...Pei. She just passed away due to illness two years ago."
Mu Haotian said:
"Ah! Then please..."
He subconsciously wanted to say "please forgive me and accept the change", but when he said the words, he suddenly woke up. This statement was extremely inconsistent with his status as a worldly expert, and he was afraid that his secret would be exposed.
While he was speaking bluntly, he suddenly felt that Jing Ling's left arm was wrapped with two hands, shaking it back and forth, and she said coquettishly:
"Senior brother, I'm a little thirsty."
Mu Haotian looked at her doubtfully, but saw that she was blinking at him secretly. He understood in an instant, shook his head hard, and shouted at Pei Yong:
"Don't you have ears?! My junior sister said she is thirsty, why don't you send some spiritual fruits over quickly!"
With a sharp look and sharp words, Pei Yong couldn't help but feel frightened. He hurriedly raised his arms to control the vines and carefully brought the entire spiritual tree to Mu Haotian.
Mu Haotian rolled his eyes and picked three light blue fruits casually. He was about to wave his sleeves for him to leave, but suddenly he had an idea. He reached out and took out two slender sword feathers from the layers of his coat and inserted them there. On the spiritual plant, he said calmly:
"Senior, I have never wanted to bully others and take things from my juniors for nothing. I got this thing two days ago deep in the Beiling Mountains. The wings of the two Shadow Night Owls are very sharp and sharp. They are made from side gates. An excellent addition to weapons! In exchange for a few of your spiritual fruits, it will be more than enough."
Pei Yong trembled and took back the dominator vine, carefully took off the sword feather on the spiritual plant, and placed it flat in the palm of his hand. When everyone around him gathered to take a look, they couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
"hiss----"
Shadow Night Owl!
This demon's own strength is nothing, but everyone present knows that behind it is a most ferocious evil thing.
All the masters were in awe of Mu Haotian, and they couldn't help but think:
"Did this senior actually kill a demon?!"
"It's a pity that the owls are cunning by nature. They send out ghosts to test many times. When they see the situation is not right, they flee far away. I unexpectedly bumped into them. I only managed to kill a few night owls. I also cut off one of its own arms, and was finally killed by it. Escape from death... Hey! As the saying goes, the task of eradicating evil is over, but it seems that it will take a lot of effort to kill this beast."
Mu Haotian's words were full of regret, as if for him, killing the demon head-on was like eating and drinking. After finishing speaking, he handed Jing Ling two spiritual fruits and threw one in his hand to weigh.
Jing Ling took it and ate it without any worries.
Mu Haotian saw that she was chewing it with gusto, so he put it to his mouth and took a bite.
But it felt like it melted in your mouth, soft and smooth, as if you had swallowed a mouthful of water vapor, and it almost overflowed the corner of your mouth, so you quickly sucked it away.
At that moment, he suddenly understood that the strange licking sound he had heard before while listening to the wind turned out to be this way.
I closed my upper and lower lips, and felt the sweetness on my tongue, like a mountain spring. After taking one bite, I wanted to eat more. Unexpectedly, after taking a mouthful of fruit pulp, a vigorous force suddenly burst out in his belly, running around in all directions.
Thinking of what Pei Yong called the "water condensation fruit", I felt that this vitality was fresh and soft, yet not too powerful, just like a continuous stream of water. It's just that the strength is too strong for him, and at this moment, he can't meditate and use his energy to turn it into his own energy.
As a result, Mu Haotian held it in very hard, and his face showed a hint of ferocity.
Suddenly he spat violently, threw the water condensate fruit to the ground, and cursed at Jing Ling:
"The smelly tree bears rotten fruit, but you can eat it too!"
Jing Ling held the remaining half of the fruit in her hand, pretending to be aggrieved, but in her heart she thought that Senior Brother Mu's series of reactions were seamless, with laughter and anger flowing seamlessly into each other, and she secretly gave him a thumbs up.
Mu Haotian got excited about his performance, and turned to look at Pei Yong, the big-headed man with a mournful face, with an accusatory look.
Pei Yong was so frightened that he raised his hand in a hurry, attracted the vine girl next to him, and said quickly:
"Senior...Senior, I haven't finished introducing you just now. This is my fiancée. Her surname is Pei after her husband, and her nickname is Qingqing..."
"The little girl Qingqing has met this young master."
The girl Pei Qingqing interrupted Pei Yong, took two small steps forward, faced Mu Haotian, saluted and said:
"My mother, Wanrou, is over thirty-seven years old. She is currently in good health. Unfortunately, my father passed away early. She is now a widow living on Huolian Island in the southern region of Lan Hai. You are welcome to visit me."
Pei Qingqing's voice was so charming that Mu Haotian couldn't help but look at her twice.
But I saw that her chin was slightly lowered, and she wore a small jade ring on her neck. She put her left hand on her waist, put her right leg forward, squatted down slightly, and performed a standard Kyushu blessing ceremony.
Mu Haotian felt strange, and suddenly his eyelids twitched. He saw Pei Qingqing's charming face, which seemed to be a smile but not a smile. A green vine was gently hanging around her shoulder, with the tip slightly lowered and facing him upright.
His heart thumped and he exclaimed that something was not good.
But Pei Qingqing slowly retreated and fell back to Pei Yong, smiling silently.
Mu Haotian was already panicking. He managed to pull himself together and looked at Li Jian who was riding a giant otter.
Li Jian looked at him and said coldly:
"Polang Island, Duanliu Sword Sect, Li Jian."
Mu Haotian was already most afraid of this person. Seeing that he was unwilling to say anything and was not getting what he wanted, he hurriedly turned to look at Pei Yong and asked with a hint of power:
"Pei Yong, you said that you and Pei Zhi agreed to meet in Joaquin City tomorrow. If there is an emergency, do you have a way to find him as soon as possible?"
Pei Yong was stunned when he heard this and said:
"Pei Zhi is my brother. When he died and received his soul, he used the same vine from a different plant. The soul has its own subtle reactions, such as breakthrough, rage, pain, life and death..."
Before the word "death" was finished, there was a sudden groan of pain!
Mu Haotian's eyes were fixed on him, and he saw that his shoulders were shaking violently, the veins on his forehead were bulging, and his face was red, and quickly turned purple.
Suddenly he knelt down and opened his mouth to vomit blood.
In an instant, his eyes were bright and he roared fiercely:
"The one who killed me is Mu Haotian!"
