Chapter 429 I'm leaving, don't miss me (1)
one at all!!" Nangong Suxin frowned and answered again."Are you sure" Xiangyao asked again, by this time the crowd was getting restless."Damn it, are you煩不煩, have I said no!"The one speaking wasn't on...Chapter 429 I'm Leaving, Don't Worry About Me
The Black Warrior Wen Yuan should have known that the Black Warrior Lingxiao had encountered the Moon Fox before, but at that time, the Moon Fox herself informed all factions in the Azure Dragon City, so Wen Yuan didn’t ask further.
"Yes, I know. We've met a few times," Xianyao said.
"I never expected this. Since you're connected to the Moon Fox, then it's natural that you wouldn't care about my little temple. You can leave whenever you want!" The Black Warrior Wen Yuan changed his attitude towards Xianyao, which was something Xianyao didn’t expect.
This woman, the Moon Fox, was really terrifying. Just her name alone made the large patriarch of the Black Warrior clan act this way; if it were just martial power, she shouldn't have been able to make the patriarch of the Black Warrior family so cautious. There must be something else behind her.
Xianyao wanted to know what kind of person the Moon Fox was Could it be that existence In the secret chamber of the Black Warrior clan, there seemed to be a recorded description of an organization.
"Actually, I don’t have much connection with the Azure Dragon people," Xianyao said indifferently.
"Then you are… forget it, this doesn't concern me. You can leave!" The Black Warrior Wen Yuan didn’t continue what he was saying and instead asked Xianyao to leave.
The reaction of the Black Warrior Wen Yuan made Xianyao almost certain that the Moon Fox must belong to that organization; when he said Azure Dragon, it wasn't referring to the Azure Dragon Empire or the Azure Dragon family, but another name.
It looks like I should stay away from the Moon Fox in the future and not get involved in her troubles. This organization is something I really don’t want to deal with; it’s a huge headache!
"Since that's the case, then I'll leave first!" Xianyao prepared to bid farewell and leave. From start to finish, this matter had become very strange, no one would have thought of such an outcome.
Xianyao also didn’t expect it; because of the Moon Fox, he had easily gotten rid of this trouble, and he wasn't sure if he should thank her for that or not.
When Xianyao was halfway through leaving, he suddenly stopped and turned around to ask: "Hey, where's my payment"
"…"
When Xianyao stopped, the Black Warrior Wen Yuan thought that there would be some important matter; instead, Xianyao only asked for his payment, which made him a little crazy.
"Here's one hundred silver tickets. I think it’s enough!" The Black Warrior Wen Yuan threw out a hundred-silver ticket, and Xianyao casually took it.
"It’s more than enough. Do you want me to give you the rest" Xianyao asked.
"No need!!" The Black Warrior Wen Yuan frowned; did he care about giving out one hundred silver
"Then thank you, you’re a good person." Xianyao smiled and readily accepted the hundred silver. He was currently short on cash, and this money had been offered by someone else, so there was no reason to refuse it; he could consider it as bonus for working here for over a year.
Xianyao believed that his work in the Black Warrior clan was worth this price!
Back home, pack up things, and then leave…
"Lingxiao, how did you meet Moon Fox" After Xianyao left, the Black Warrior Wen Yuan asked the Black Warrior Lingxiao. From what he heard just now, he knew that the Black Warrior Lingxiao had also encountered the Moon Fox before.
"I met her at Rain-listening Lake; she was catching a demon newt at the time. I didn’t know who she was, only that she possessed very terrifying strength. We couldn’t match even one of her palms. Also, Xianyao seems to know her, but their relationship is complicated and hard to tell," the Black Warrior Lingxiao replied truthfully.
"Complicated" The Black Warrior Wen Yuan asked; he already knew when Lingxiao met Moon Fox, all he wanted was to figure out who exactly Xianyao was.
Originally asking directly would be best, but afraid of touching on taboo subjects, so he decided to infer from what the Black Warrior Lingxiao said. At this moment, he didn’t fear that Xianyao was a fake associate because once it involved Moon Fox, all responsibility fell onto her.
"Yes, their relationship is strange! She greeted Xianyao but seemed not very familiar with him; she even kicked him into Rain-listening Lake. But then she saved him and promised to provide benefits for being a bait for him, giving him medicinal pills made from the demon newt," said Black Warrior Lingxiao.
"That's strange! Since she kicked him in the water, it should be bad; but she gave Xianyao those medicinal pills, which I find hard to get. She’s always confusing me, forget it, let her handle this herself or else dealing with her would be a headache!" The Black Warrior Wen Yuan frowned and asked: "By the way, what was that about being bait"
"After Xianyao was kicked into water, due to some bad luck, he encountered the demon newt. After escaping onto shore, he warned us to run away, at which time we still thought we could handle the demon newt…"
“Nonsense, that demon newt is a Saint-level or higher; you couldn't even escape from it! Fortunately you guys are fine, and then did Moon Fox rescue you” said Black Warrior Wen Yuan.
"No, Xianyao rescued us. He lured the demon newt away, then asked for help from Moon Fox shortly after, who used one palm to kill the demon newt," said Black Warrior Lingxiao.
"A palm strike!" Upon hearing this, both Wu Xuanlingfeng and Shang Lingjian exclaimed in shock. If a mere palm strike could kill a beast of the Sacred Rank or higher, how powerful must the Crescent Fox herself be
"Yes, it was just a single palm strike," Wu Xuanlingshao nodded.
"This isn’t strange. What I’m curious about is whether Xiao Yao got injured" Wu Wenyuan wasn’t surprised by the Crescent Fox’s strength; he only wanted to say that what they felt was merely part of it. But his curiosity lay in how Xiao Yao managed to escape from the demonic salamander under the lake. This seemed even more unbelievable.
Under the lake, aquatic beasts like the demonic salamander were far more agile than humans. Even if their ranks were equal, they could still easily catch up with a human. Given that Xiao Yao was clearly weaker compared to the demonic salamander’s rank, how did he manage to escape
Could it be mere coincidence that he happened to be by the shore This seemed like the only possibility!
"No, his movements were very agile; it seems he managed to avoid everything," Wu Xuanlingshao replied. At this moment, she suddenly realized something: The demonic salamander was of Sacred Rank. Even if it wasn’t as nimble on land, evading an attack would still be difficult—even for her. But Xiao Yao managed it effortlessly.
"It seems that this Xiao Yao is quite formidable. Perhaps he’s the person from yesterday. If there’s a connection between him and Crescent Fox, it wouldn’t be surprising. But to cultivate someone as a Shennong Sect practitioner—was this intentional" Wu Wenyuan asked himself; these matters were all shrouded in mystery, only to be answered by those involved.
Now he felt it was best not to delve deeper, for the more he investigated, the more questions would arise and the more perplexed he’d become!
"Let’s leave this matter here. No one should continue investigating or discussing today’s events," Wu Wenyuan said, intending to bury the incident.
"Uncle, who is Crescent Fox" Shang Lingjian was very curious and asked another question he shouldn’t have.
In contrast, neither Wu Xuanlingfeng nor Wu Xuanlingshao were going to ask about this. They knew that unless Wu Wenyuan told them, it was best for them to know as little as possible.
"You shouldn’t ask about this. Don’t mention her name anywhere; otherwise, I might not be able to protect you," Wu Wenyuan said. "The name Crescent Fox doesn’t represent a single person but something beyond your current reach."
"What about… Xiao Yao then" Shang Lingjian asked again.
"For now, it’s best if you don’t provoke him. If he is affiliated with Crescent Fox, he’ll be trouble you can’t handle," Wu Wenyuan said.
"I won’t cause any trouble for him…" Despite being quite cunning, Shang Lingjian was also sensible enough in this situation not to do so.
I’m not stupid; if he can appear and disappear without a trace in front of everyone, causing me trouble would be simple for him too.
Shang Lingjian hadn’t considered this earlier. He should have thought of it then—he suspected Xiao Yao was the thief from yesterday, so shouldn’t he have also realized now
This was either due to his slow reaction or deliberate ignoring of obvious facts!
"Uncle, I suspect that the incident a year ago might be Xiao Yao’s doing. On that day, I had annoyed him," Shang Lingjian suddenly remembered this.
"Perhaps, but no one can say for sure!" Wu Wenyuan couldn’t confirm it yet wouldn’t deny it; indeed, it was a strong possibility.
No matter what, Xiao Yao had become an enigma to them. Before figuring out his relationship with Crescent Fox, they would treat him with respect.
Crescent Fox wouldn’t tell anyone about this either—she avoided Wu Wenyuan, let alone others!
Because of Crescent Fox’s involvement, only a few people suspected Xiao Yao was the thief; everyone else merely saw him as an ordinary servant!
On the other side, after packing up his things (which were simple and optional), Xiao Yao had prepared to leave. He’d already sent off important items or carried them with him.
Still, since he could pack, he might as well do so, and write a letter too…
"Right here!"
After leaving the demon beast enclosure, Xiao Yao came to Wang Yanyu’s fixed spot. He grabbed the wallhead, hung on it, and placed an obvious letter there—his most recent one.
Then, he left for the market to buy a horse and set off towards Silverheart City, home of Tianyuan Qi Family—one of the renowned cities!
At nightfall, at that same spot, Wang Yanyu climbed onto the wallhead and saw Xiao Yao’s letter…
The clear words on it read: “Right here!” (To be continued)ese advanced volumes.It would take several months for him to gain the right to access those books, but that was too long to wait, especially since he was now working at the inner academy library—there...
