Chapter 371 I Am Li Yihun (2)

wanted was to dig up the second treasure of this underground palace: the library within it, which exceeded his expectations in every way.The books here could nurture not only a peerless expert but al..."I haven't yet!" Xiaoyao shook his head. He wasn't arrogant enough to take on two mid-stage Emperors. Of course, he had several escape plans, but there was no need to tell them.

"Then what do you want to say Do you want to say that you're ready to face death" The green-robed woman wanted to laugh a little; the boy in front of her seemed interesting. If it weren't for orders from above, she wouldn’t have wanted to kill him.

"Death isn't scary, but I don't want to die! What I want to say is that you haven't figured out the situation yet. Although I can't do anything to you, my boss can!" Xiaoyao looked at the two women and said coolly.

"Your boss What does that mean!!" The green-robed woman asked; she could vaguely guess Xiaoyao's meaning: their combined strength wasn’t enough in front of his boss. That was why Xiaoyao didn't care about them at all.

“The meaning is simple, you two can’t beat my boss even when you team up. So what do I have to fear” Xiaoyao said directly but without mockery and maintained a friendly smile.

He no longer needed to hide Lone Star's strength; sometimes openly stating his strength could be intimidating and make them think twice about whether they had the capability, or let them know if he could bear the losses. Otherwise, they wouldn’t stop coming for trouble.

Lone Star’s current strength was enough to deter most forces from causing unnecessary trouble. Soon, Lone Star would join the Phoenix Clan Family; then the Phoenix Clan Family would protect him, and no one would want a confrontation with them.

Xiaoyao felt that things weren’t at a point where it had to come to a breaking point. If they backed down, there wouldn't be any trouble, nor did he intend to expose anything about the other party.

In fact, even if he wanted to expose something, there was no way; because he didn’t know anything!

With just that little bit of information, Xiaoyao wasn't a god. Without connecting with other pieces of information, he wouldn’t understand the whole situation. He didn’t know who those two people were back then or what their secret talk was about.

Believe it or not, other information would never appear before him unless by a very unlikely coincidence!

Of course, this didn't count for cases like these where they came looking for trouble themselves. In that case, Xiaoyao wouldn’t be able to avoid knowing even if he wanted to!

"Your boss, you said the girl, how strong can she be!!" The green-robed woman was a bit doubtful; from what she had learned, Lone Star was only in his twenties and younger than her by a few years. With her speed not inferior to anyone else’s, the yellow-robed woman beside her was also slightly older.

Even if there were people who cultivated faster than her, they should be those genius figures from powerful clans, and only just a few of them. Now, however, an unknown person without any fame appeared.

This made her somewhat disbelieving, thinking that Xiaoyao was lying to scare them off.

"She’s merely at the peak Emperor realm; she might break through to Saint anytime soon. When then, even if you have power and status, you’ll need to think twice," Xiaoyao waved his hand as he said this.

At a saint level, even in this Holy Continent, one would be standing at the top of the pyramid; although not at the very pinnacle, it was enough for most forces to back down. Those who still had that strength would also need to think about whether they should oppose him.

"Impossible! She’s just how old You must be lying to us and trying to scare us off. Let me tell you, this is impossible," the green-robed woman shook her head firmly, refusing to believe it.

"Then wait here; my boss should appear soon. Then you’ll know if I was fooling you or not." Xiaoyao shrugged indifferently and continued looking at his book, showing no intention of leaving.

This attitude by Xiaoyao made the two women a bit dejected. Was he ignoring their existence Even if it wasn’t a lie, she was still just his boss; he himself was only a General rank. Were they not scared that we might kill him first

"Sit down, don't stand, you'll get tired!" Xiaoyao said casually.

Scared Of course not! Would you attack me before confirming my boss's strength This is definitely impossible; I’m just a minor figure.

Killing such insignificant figures like me would be meaningless to you. You wouldn’t care until my boss appears, and even then, you'd still be lazy to act.

"What should we do" the yellow-robed woman asked in a low voice next to the green-robed woman, without deliberately avoiding Xiaoyao.

Minor figure!

"Wait!" The green-robed woman said casually.

The yellow-robed woman frowned slightly and said, "If what he says is true, then we won’t be up to the task. Not only will we fail Miss’s mission but could also face danger."

“He must be lying!” The green-robed woman said, “He's just scaring us off!!”

"What if it is true" asked the yellow-robed woman.

“If… it is…”

The green-robed woman frowned and thought for a moment before saying, "Inform the young miss. See what she decides."

"Mm!" The yellow-robed woman nodded her head and then took out paper and pen to write down several simple sentences. She rolled them up into a small scroll and placed it in a bamboo tube. Finally—

“Whistle!”

A whistle sounded, and a bird descended from the sky. The exact species of this bird was unknown; even Xianyao did not know about it, but he knew that it was used to deliver messages, similar to the messenger eagles in Divine Martial Continent.

"Hey, what kind of creature is that" Xianyao asked the two women.

He may have had no interest in other matters, but when it came to communication birds, he was quite interested. He had always wanted to find a way to maintain contact with Solitary Star as he did with messenger eagles on Divine Martial Continent.

By the way, for Miss and others… yes, by the way!

"It’s just a small monster," replied the green-robed woman unenthusiastically. However, since she had nothing else to do, she might as well chat with him; who knows She might get some information out of it.

Xianyao loved this situation very much and accompanied the green-robed woman in conversation. He talked about all sorts of topics under the sun but did not give away any information to her. Instead, she inadvertently revealed quite a bit to him during their chat.

However, what Xianyao was most interested in was that communication monster. Other matters were merely for broadening his horizons.

This little monster was a domesticated species but not everyone had it; it was rare and seldom recorded in documents. If not so, Xianyao should have come across one already. He only encountered ordinary messenger monsters previously.

The number of monsters on this Sacred Continent far outnumbered those on Divine Martial Continent. There were dozens of species suitable for delivering messages, and each individual had different preferences and purposes when choosing their monster companions, so they selected different breeds accordingly. The most common type was similar to the messenger eagles, which existed in both continents.

However, there was an issue with messenger eagles on this Sacred Continent; there were many monsters flying in the sky, so sometimes the messenger eagles might be eaten by them, causing letters to go undelivered.

The same problem could occur with other breeds as well, and all of them carried certain risks. Xianyao wanted to choose a breed that was safest and train it thoroughly; even if he couldn’t dominate the skies, at least his monster would be able to retreat unscathed.

Generally speaking, those who could achieve such feats were rare, making them expensive as well. Xianyao had largely given up on buying one with money. The best way was to catch a few of them; if they came to him voluntarily, it would be even better. However, that was practically daydreaming.

Back to the point, this little monster was called "Boying", a very fast messenger beast that could fly at breakneck speed while also possessing strong concealment abilities, making it extremely safe for air deliveries and with a very low possibility of loss—almost once every hundred years.

The downside was that this small monster couldn’t carry too heavy objects. It would be fine for delivering letters but difficult to transport items.

Nevertheless, this was one option for Xianyao; even if he couldn’t send things like before, at least they could communicate, which was already quite good. Furthermore, he could choose other monsters as auxiliary companions too.

A little time passed...

"Lady warriors, would you like to eat some grilled fish I’ll go catch a few." Xianyao put down his book when he felt hungry and thought of cooking some fish. He asked the two waiting women as well.

“…”

The two women fell silent; they found this situation quite odd. This didn’t seem like someone who was likely to be killed, yet they were still there to kill him.

He seemed to treat them as guests and even prepared to entertain them. Did he really mean it Was his boss truly so powerful that he wasn’t afraid of them

If it was just bluffing, then after so much time had passed, not a single flaw had been exposed from him, nor did he show any abnormal actions; this seemed quite impossible.

The only explanation that made sense to them was that his boss truly possessed peak Imperial-level strength. If that were the case, how should they deal with it Should they fight or negotiate

A person of peak Imperial level was not something one could easily encounter, especially at such a young age. If there was any backing behind him, this matter would become troublesome; it might be better to leave them alone than to provoke them.

Forget it, let’s just follow Miss's instructions; whatever she says goes, and we only need to act accordingly.

"Hey, what are you thinking about Do you want some grilled fish or not If not, I won’t bother cooking," Xianyao said as he entered the river. He wielded his sword to pick up a few fish; these moves made the two women’s eyes light up.

This was simple enough for even an ordinary martial artist to do, but those sword techniques were executed flawlessly and without leaving any trace, which made them worthy of further study.

Anyone capable of such feats was undoubtedly a sword master who could challenge opponents at higher levels!larify it so that there won’t be any misunderstanding." Prince Dragon Might asked."All four of us," Miss First Lady said promptly.“Ah…”The entire venue was taken aback; they couldn't imagine this woul...
