After hearing what Captain Lang Tian said, the expressions of the unsuspecting mercenaries in the room changed drastically. They looked at each other, their eyes full of horror and disbelief.
Captain Lang Tian continued: "Captain Bai Yunfei, I guess you are also worried that the mysterious strong man will be involved with Mu Yun."
Captain Bai Yunfei nodded and said: "If Mu Yun hadn't stayed here without any scruples and looked confident after the fact that Mu Yun possessed combat skills was exposed, I would not have separated the mysterious strong man and the He associates it together.”
"That makes sense." Captain Lang Tian said: "If Mu Yun is really involved with that mysterious strong man, then we must not take action. Otherwise, the consequences will be worse than when we met the Cangmang Bandit Group. Be serious."
"That mysterious strong man can definitely kill our entire team easily." Bai Yunfei also said solemnly with a solemn face.
"Second order, no one should mention Mu Yun's combat skills again. Everyone should act as if they don't know anything about it."
….
After bidding farewell to Mu Yun, Jian Chen wandered around the city called "Black Wind City". Black Wind City was a small city, but because it was close to the border fortress of Fenglan Empire, the entire city was The city is bustling everywhere, and the flow of people is very large. Businessmen and mercenaries from other countries can be seen everywhere.
Arriving not far from the mercenary union, Jian Chen directly found a restaurant to stay. Running around all night these days made him feel exhausted.
After casually eating something in the restaurant, Jian Chen returned directly to his room under the guidance of the waiter.
Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Jian Chen did not sleep, but directly took out a few first-order magic cores from his space belt and started practicing. Now, he does not dare to slow down his improvement of strength for a moment. As long as he has time, Jian Chen will take out the magic core to practice, because only if he has a strength that is too powerful to match that of the Huayun Sect, or even powerful enough to make the Huayun Sect feel afraid, he can go home openly and honestly, although if he is sneaky He might not be discovered by Huayun Sect when he goes back, but with Jian Chen's deep-seated arrogance, he obviously can't do such a thing.
The energy in the magic core was rapidly drained away at a terrifying speed, then poured into Jian Chen's body from the pores around his body, and was finally absorbed by him. However, among these huge energies, only one percent can actually be absorbed by Jian Chen. Ninety-nine percent of the energy was absorbed by the two light spots, one purple and one green, that appeared inexplicably in his dantian. , these two light spots seemed to be a bottomless pit. No matter how much energy it absorbed, it would not change at all.
As for the matter of his dantian, Jian Chen is helpless. This is beyond his control at all. Now he can only let the two light spots in his dantian, one purple and one green, rob him of energy. However, the only thing among them that makes Jian Chen compare What is gratifying is that although the consumption of magic core caused by cultivation now is hundreds of times higher than before, his cultivation speed is a bit faster than before. This also makes Jian Chen find something in his heart. comfort.
Early the next morning, when the warm and soft sunshine shone on the earth, Jian Chen also woke up from his cultivation state. When he opened his eyes, Jian Chen looked at the few first-order stars in his hands that had completely disappeared. The demon core couldn't help but reveal a wry smile on his face, and sighed: "This consumption is really too great. This night's practice consumed more than fifty first-level demon cores, although there are still some demon cores in my space ring. Nuclear, but according to this kind of consumption, I’m afraid it can only last for ten days at most.”
Jian Chen got out of bed, moved his feet slightly, then came to the window and looked at the crowds of people on the street outside, and murmured: "Cultivation must never stop, and if there is no magic core In other words, just by absorbing the vitality of heaven and earth, the cultivation speed is one-tenth of the usual speed. This is not advisable. It seems that we have to find a way to replenish the magic core."
Afterwards, Jian Chen left the room, went to the bottom floor of the restaurant, found an empty table and sat down.
"Objective, I wonder what you want to eat?" Just as Jian Chen sat down, the enthusiastic waiter came up to him with a smile on his face.
"A plate of stir-fried tiger meat, two plates of side dishes, and a bowl of white rice." Jian Chen casually ordered a few side dishes.
"Okay, objectively, please wait a moment."
Sitting at the dining table a little bored, Jian Chen glanced around the restaurant casually. The restaurant was not large in scale and could only be considered medium-sized in this Black Wind City. However, it happened to be morning at the moment. It was the time for businessmen and mercenaries to dine, so there were already a lot of people sitting in the restaurant. There were originally thirty or forty tables, but there were only less than five left.
The restaurant was very noisy, and many mercenaries were talking loudly without caring about the feelings of others.
"Objective, your dishes are here." Jian Chen didn't have to wait long. Soon, the waiter brought out the dishes Jian Chen ordered and carefully placed them on the table.
While Jian Chen was eating breakfast, he listened to the chatter of the mercenaries in the restaurant. Although the restaurant was very noisy, the people gathered here were all mercenaries traveling around. From their mouths, you could hear a lot of interesting things. thing.
At this moment, several more men dressed as mercenaries came in at the door of the restaurant. There were five people in total. Except for three of them, they seemed to be young people in their twenties and thirties, and the other two were older. The middle-aged men in their forties were all wearing blue robes. It was easy to tell from the silver badge they hung on their chests that they all belonged to the same mercenary group, and this one had a silver badge. , the level of this mercenary group is not low.
As soon as the five people entered the restaurant, their eyes glanced around. However, it was the peak meal period now, and the tables in the restaurant were already occupied, and there was no free space left.
"It's so unlucky that there is no place left." A relatively thin young man wearing a green gown cursed loudly.
A young man standing next to him glanced around the restaurant, and finally stopped at Jian Chen who was occupying a table to himself. He chuckled and said: "Gan Hou, who said there is no place? Look, there is a table." Well, although it’s a bit crowded for us to sit at the same table, there’s nothing we can do about it.”
Although besides Jian Chen, there are still many people sitting alone at a table in the restaurant, but those people can tell at a glance that they are not easy to chew. Jian Chen is the only one who does not seem to be the slightest threat. , so this young man naturally set his sights on Jian Chen.
Hearing this, several people's eyes focused on Jian Chen, who was wearing a white coarse cloth. When they saw Jian Chen's face, which was only in his twenties, a malicious smile appeared on their faces. Then, Five people walked over at the same time.
When he came to the table where Jian Chen was sitting, the young man who was called the "Dry Monkey" reached out and patted Jian Chen's shoulder, and said with a non-smiling smile: "My friend, this table is now We’ve taken it, so you might as well get another one.”
Hearing this, Jian Chen frowned, raised his head slightly, and scanned the faces of the five people. When his powerful divine sense sensed the not-so-strong strength of the five people, he suddenly felt relieved and said: "Sorry, I have to use this table now." For these five people, Jian Chen didn't have much fear in his heart. Although two of them were quite old, their strength was not very strong.
After all, strength does not entirely depend on age. Some people with outstanding talents can become top masters famous in the mainland at a young age, while some people with mediocre qualifications are unable to condense holy weapons throughout their lives. Cross the threshold of becoming a saint.
Ganhou's face suddenly darkened, and he looked at Jian Chen with a hint of coldness in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Boy, don't make a toast and not eat the wine as a penalty. If you are sensible, get out of here right now."
What happened to Jian Chen naturally attracted many people in the restaurant, but such things can be seen everywhere in Tianyuan Continent and are not new, so everyone watched the show with a smile on their face. I watched the development of things here, and no one planned to help.
