Volume 1: The Decline of the Yue Family Chapter 83: That Girl is So Beautiful
"Whoosh" Tony's sword sliced down and beheaded the massive Water Spirit Snake, the surrounding sandy beach was already dyed a deep red by the snake's blood.
"Hiss, hiss" The other three water snakes saw their two companions being killed by the two humans in an instant, and with eyes full of fear, they fled into the sea.
Yu Cheng and Tonis did not pursue the three escaped water spirit snakes, Xiao Tian Hu and Zi Dian Mang also dared not to take action under Yu Cheng's orders. As for the people of Ling Jing Zong, they were not very powerful and did not dare to continue pursuing those three water spirit snakes.
The internal elixirs of the two fourth-order demon beasts, Water Spirit Snakes, were naturally taken by Yue Cheng and Tonnis. The internal elixir of a fourth-order demon beast was worth almost 1,000 gold coins, and Yue Cheng wouldn't be generous enough to give it away. Tonnis would be even less likely to do so, as he would often kill and take the internal elixirs of second-order demon beasts they encountered.
"Thank you, Elder Yue." The several disciples of the Lingjing Sect originally respected Yue Cheng because of his identity as a guest elder, but now these people have come to respect Yue Cheng from their hearts. Being able to kill a Waterspirit Snake is something that even a Four-Star Douwang would find difficult to do.
"Yue Cheng, thank you." Ou Yang Piao walked to Yue Cheng's side and said. This time, she had a different view of Yue Cheng, and didn't expect his strength to be so formidable. It seemed that losing to him in the Alchemist Grand Prix wasn't unjust after all.
"You're welcome." Yue Cheng said softly, his eyes fixed on Ouyang Piao as he swallowed a mouthful of saliva that had almost flowed out.
Ouyang Piao's emotions were dressed in a light red qipao, with curves and contours all over her body. The two jade peaks on her chest stood high, her waist was slender like a willow, her buttocks were plump and round, and her legs were long and slender. With that beautiful face, she was simply an enchanting beauty that could not help but move people's hearts.
"You all be careful later, I'll leave first." Yue Cheng said to the people of Lingjing Sect. If he stayed with the people of Lingjing Sect, there would always be some awkwardness. He glanced back at Ouyang Fan again and took the opportunity to slip away immediately. What he had just done could also be considered a good deed.
"Let's go." Yue Cheng said as he walked to the side of Xiao Tian Hu and Zi Dian Mang, with Tonis naturally following behind him.
"Master, that woman is so beautiful. I've never been with such a pretty woman before." Xīng Tiān Hǔ said with some lust in his eyes as he looked at ōu Yáng Jiàn in the distance.
"You striped beast, beware of your master splitting you." Zi Dian Mang scolded Xiao Tian Hu.
The four of them immediately left the sight of the Lingjing Zong people. Looking at Yue Cheng's back, Ouyang Fan couldn't help but gaze for a long time, muttering to himself: "Yue Cheng, what a strange person, why is he Sima Yanran's fiancé?"
"Miss, let's go, there shouldn't be any more demons ahead," said Er Xing Dou Wang.
"Oh, let's go." Ou Yang Zuo finally came back to his senses and immediately followed the disciples of Zong Nei towards the exit of the deep sea.
Half a year has finally passed, and today is the day when the barrier is opened to let out those who entered the deep sea half a year ago. Early in the morning, people from various families rushed to the island of the exit, bringing out their disciples from their clans or sects.
When several elders of the Lingjing Sect joined forces again to take out the jade stone and open a white passage on the screen, a large group of people suddenly walked out from inside.
"Finally out." Yue Cheng walked out of the passageway and couldn't help but take a few deep breaths. This half year really passed quickly.
"Haha, I've finally left the deep sea." Xiao Tianhu and Zi Dianmang were both extremely excited. After dozens of years, they had finally left the deep sea.
"Yue Cheng, how are you? Are you okay in there?" Sima Changping saw Yue Cheng walk out of the deep sea unscathed and also let out a sigh of relief.
"Uncle, I'm fine." Yue Cheng replied faintly. This time in the deep sea, he gained a lot and it was time for him to leave Zuoxing Island as well.
"What a beautiful woman, just like the one from the other day." Xiao Tianhu whispered behind Yue Cheng, his eyes fixed on a woman with a slender and curvaceous figure, wearing a green long dress that outlined her seductive curves.
"Yue Cheng, haven't encountered any danger, have you?" Sima Yan also faintly appeared in front of Yue Cheng's eyes. Seeing that Yue Cheng was fine, she felt a lot more at ease. From the time Yue Cheng entered the deep sea half a year ago, her heart had been inexplicably worried all along.
"No." Looking at Sima Yanran, Yue Cheng also had a strong urge to bleed from his nose.
Later, the people of the Sima family also came out one after another. Originally, more than 100 people entered, but only 70 people came out, and 30 people were buried in the deep sea. One hundred people died, thirty people, this number is also big enough to illustrate the danger inside.
It's still because the disciples sent out by the Sima family are some young and capable ones, let alone others.
Half a year ago, Yue Cheng roughly estimated that there were more than 10,000 people in the deep sea, but now he saw that less than half of them came out.
After the followers Sima Changping and Sima Yanran returned to the Sima family, Yue Cheng told Sima Changping that he would leave Zuoxing Island in a few days to return to Douqi Academy, because Yue Cheng had not yet graduated from the academy. Sima Changping also didn't want to detain Yue Cheng any longer, but only instructed Yue Cheng to marry Sima Yanran immediately after graduation.
Xiao Tianhu was so scared after knowing that Sima Yanran was the master's fiancée that he didn't dare to look at her again. This incident made Zidian laugh for several months.
"Are you really going?" Yu Cheng's room, Sima Yanran asked softly, with a few complex eyes.
Yue Cheng looked at Sima Yanran in front of him and said: "I have some things that I need to go back and deal with, I must leave."
"Thank you for helping me with everything regarding the Sima family." Sima Yanran sighed, and for some reason, upon hearing that Yue Cheng was really leaving, she felt a pang of sadness in her heart.
"No need to thank me, I should be thanking your family for taking care of me." Yue Cheng smiled slightly, and indeed, the Sima family had been very good to him during this period, especially Sima Changping, who treated Yue Cheng as if he were his own son-in-law. Just thinking about it made Yue Cheng feel a little guilty towards Sima Changping.
"Will you come again?" Sima Yanran asked with a hint of courage.
"This, after I've dealt with my matters, I will go to the Dou Qi Academy. Later on, if there's an opportunity, I might come here." Yue Cheng said.
On a windy and sunny morning, Yue Cheng and Tonis, as well as Xiao Tian Hu and Zi Dian Mang left the Sima family home, boarded a flying magical beast White Eagle and departed from Zuo Xing Island.
It was strange for the Sima family that the normally obedient flying demon, Bai Diao, saw Yue Cheng and others and suddenly trembled all over, refusing to let them approach. In the end, they finally managed to get Bai Diao to carry Yue Cheng and his four companions.
Yue Cheng naturally knew the reason. Xiao Tian Hu and Zi Dian Mang were both sixth-order magic beasts, while Bai Diao was only a second-order magic beast. It was natural for it to be afraid after smelling the aura of Xiao Tian Hu and Zi Dian Mang. Yue Cheng had Xiao Tian Hu and Zi Dian Mang suppress all their aura before he rode on Bai Diao.
"Yue Cheng, will you come back?" Sima Yanran looked at Yue Cheng's back, with an unspeakable sense of desolation in her heart.
Less than a day later, the four of them arrived in Twin Town, where Yue Cheng had stayed overnight before. The four of them rested for a night and left early the next morning.
In the Liang family of Zuoxing Island, the head of the Liang family and the elders were all furious as they listened to Liang Yu's words.
"You really think you're impressive just because you're a guest elder of the Lingjing Sect?" The master of the Liang family slammed his hand on the table, his face filled with anger.
"Father, that kid with the surname Yue actually said what does the Liang family amount to? This is too much disrespect towards our Liang family!" Liang Yu added fuel to the fire.
"It's really too arrogant." The master of the Liang family was so angry that he slapped the table next to him into pieces.
"Clan leader, we must teach this little brat with the surname Yue a good lesson. What's it to us if he's an honorary elder of the Lingjing Sect? Our Liang family still has a formal elder of the Lingjing Sect." Liang Hanwen said fiercely.
"How to teach him, I heard that kid will enter the Dou Qi Academy soon." Another elder said.
Liáng Yù looked at his father's expression and said, "Father, isn't Big Brother at the Dou Qi Academy? I heard that Big Brother has already made a name for himself at the Dou Qi Academy. Now that this little brat surnamed Yuè has returned to the Dou Qi Academy, we can let Big Brother deal with him."
"Alright, Yu'er, you set off to Dou Qi Academy tomorrow. Your elder brother had someone bring back a message last time, saying that you should also enter Dou Qi Academy for some proper training. Be careful on the way, and let your elder brother deal with that kid surnamed Yue." said the master of the Liang family.
"Where are we going, sir?" Poor Tony asked Yue Cheng as he struggled to fly in mid-air.
Yue Cheng left the Twin Town and sat on the back of Xiao Tian Hu, while Zi Dian Mang directly transformed into a half-meter-long small snake coiled around Xiao Tian Hu's neck, leaving Tony to fly hard by himself.
"Return to my home, called Liting Town." Yue Cheng said softly. With the speed of Xiao Tianhu, it should be enough to arrive at Liting Town in a few months.
At this time, something big happened in Lijing Town. For some reason, the Yue and Huang families in Lijing Town had a huge fight. Later, the five major families in Lijing Town, the Yan family sided with the Yue family, while the Luo and Qian families sided with the Huang family, because the Huang family had invited a fourth-grade alchemist from somewhere to specifically target the Yue family.
What made the Yue family most unbearable was that the elixir materials of both the Yue and Huang families were originally purchased from Yuanbao Sect in Qixing City. It is unknown what means the Huang family used, but the people of Yuanbao Sect would no longer sell medicinal materials to the Yue family, no matter how high a price they offered. Yue Zishan went to Yuanbao Sect several times, but also got nothing.
Half a year after Yue Cheng left the Yue family, the Yue family's military equipment store was closed. The other businesses of the Yue family were also affected by the Huang, Luo and Qian families and were closed one after another. The people of the Yue family had no way to deal with this situation, and for several months, they could only rely on their past savings. If it weren't for the period when Yue Cheng was there and the Yue family had some reserves, now the Yue family would have nothing but sell land and houses.
"Big brother, I can't take it anymore. Let's just fight it out with the Huang family." In the main hall of the Yue family, Yue Zifeng said to Yue Zishan with a furious face.
"Second brother, you just have a bad temper. The Huang family is now hoping that we will go and fight them." Yueshan said lightly.
"What are we going to do then? Are we just going to stay holed up in the Yue family's place forever?" Yue Zifeng said loudly.
"Yes, clan leader. What should we do?" "Clan leader, we've had enough of the Huang family too, they're also bullying us too much." Some members of the Yue family were also furious.
"Second brother, shouldn't Cheng Er be back by now?" Yue Zi Shan said softly, Yue Zi Shan had been waiting, waiting for Yue Cheng to come back before speaking.
"Yes, that kid said he'd be back in about a year, and it's almost been a year now." Yue Zifeng muttered.
Baiyun Mountain is a must-pass route from Liting Town to Shuangzi Sea, and also a must-pass route from Shuangzi Sea back to Liting Town. Baiyun Mountain has a vast area, with a radius of hundreds of miles, and in this nearby area, it can be considered a famous mountain, mainly because there are several groups of bandits on Baiyun Mountain that have made it famous.
These few gangs of robbers still have some moral integrity. In the past, mercenary groups would only give them a few gold coins as tolls if they accepted business, and not a single coin if they didn't accept it. As for passing travelers, men had to pay one gold coin, while women, children, and old people were exempt. It's precisely because of this that the robbers on White Cloud Mountain are also quite supported by the nearby people, and White Cloud Mountain has slowly become famous.
Yue Cheng had heard the mercenary group mention this White Cloud Mountain when he last went to Gemini Sea, and at that time, he had some impression of these few strong thieves on White Cloud Mountain. Now Yue Cheng and Tonis were flying in the sky above White Cloud Mountain.
"Ding-dong." A loud noise, from a slope under the White Cloud Mountain, came this wave after wave of fighting sounds. There were nearly a hundred people present, and the fight was between two men in the middle: a sturdy middle-aged man and a young man with a fluttering green robe.
A sturdy Han man, the cultivation strength of the Eight Star Dou Ling, named Dong Da Niu, is the leader of the most powerful group of bandits on Mount Baiyun. He has more than a hundred men under his command, among whom four have the cultivation strength of Dou Ling, and the rest are mostly in the realm of Great Dou Shi.
The young man in the green robe was a fourth-grade alchemist, and it was rare to see an alchemist and a Dou Shi fighting. The young man's name was Chen Biao, and at the age of 27, he was already a fourth-grade alchemist, which was also a genius. For some reason, Chen Biao had entered White Cloud Mountain two years ago, relying on his identity as a fourth-grade alchemist to recruit a group of people and become a bandit, even recruiting several Dou Ling to join him, and his power was no longer under Dong Da Niu's control.
Two forces usually get along with each other in their own territories, and the days are spent extremely comfortably. However, a few days ago, several small Luo's bumped into each other and had a fight, as a result, Dong Daniu's people lost, and several of his men were beaten to the point of being unrecognizable, and the other side even said that Dong Daniu's people were useless.
Dong Daniu scolded the several Luo brothers who were beaten to a pulp, and then took half of the people to Chen Biao's mountain to reason with him.
Who knew Chen Biao was unwilling to give in to Dong Da Niu, and as a result the two of them started fighting, neither of them willing to admit defeat, and they agreed that whoever lost would call the winner "Big Brother".
A loud crash, Dong Daniu's fist slammed into a large tree, the tree snapped in half with a loud crack, and Ba Xing Dou Ling's cultivation had already reached that of a quasi-master.
"Dong Daniu, have you gone mad? Your fists are either hitting the tree or the ground. Next time, aim properly." Chen Biao narrowly dodged Dong Daniu's attack and didn't forget to land a good hit on him in return.
"Chen Biao, you damned rabbit, I'll catch you and tear you apart!" Dong Daniu was furious, but unfortunately his speed wasn't as fast as Chen Biao's, especially when Chen Biao suddenly condensed his dan fire, which made Dong Daniu very cautious.
Chen Biao's situation is not much better than Dong Daniu, if it weren't for his speed, he would have lost to Dong Daniu. After all, the strong point of an alchemist is in refining pills, attacking power is not their strong suit. If Chen Biao had used a soul attack, he should have been able to defeat Dong Daniu, but since they didn't have any deep grudges, using a soul attack would result in either severe injury or death if the opponent couldn't withstand it. Chen Biao wouldn't use it unless absolutely necessary.
"Look at those two fighting down there, it's quite interesting," Tonis said quietly to Yue Cheng.
"Descend to the ground, Zi Long, you both transform into human form. Let's take a rest." Yue Cheng said to Xiao Tian Hu and Zi Dian Xiang, then landed on the ground from afar.
"When we arrive at White Cloud Mountain, it should only be a few more days before we can return to Liying Town." Yue Cheng muttered to himself. Xiao Tianhu and Tonis had also been flying non-stop for some time now, so Yue Cheng made sure to rest for one or two hours every day.
As for the fight below, Yue Cheng had noticed it early on and was also somewhat curious. Looking at those people's attire, they should be the bandits from White Cloud Mountain.
"Wait a minute, Dong Daniu, we'll fight again later." Chen Biao suddenly said to Dong Daniu with a gasp.
"Why, just because you can't beat me, do you think I want to rest? Don't think that just because you're some kind of stinky alchemist, I'm afraid of you." Dong Daniu said loudly. A large area of big trees around him had already been blasted down by him, and the ground was also smashed into several large pits.
"Are you blind? Didn't you see that another four people came? Let's collect the toll first." Chen Biao glared at Dong Daniu.
"Alright, we'll fight again later." Dong Daniu grunted and strode towards Yue Cheng and the others, with dozens of Luo brothers following closely behind him.
"You are going to cross the White Cloud Mountain, first pay the toll. You are four men, each one gold coin, a total of four gold coins." Dong Da Niu walked up to Yue Cheng and said, with an air of righteousness and majesty, as if Yue Cheng owed him something.
"Hahaha" You little brat asking us for tolls, did I hear that right? Xiao Tianhu and Zi Dianhua couldn't help but burst into loud laughter.
"What are you laughing at? This is the rule of Baiyun Mountain." Dong Daniu shouted, "If you don't pay the toll, don't think about passing through!"
"You..." Tunis was about to get angry, but was stopped by Yue Cheng's gesture. Yue Cheng said, "Alright, four gold coins is no problem."
"They're four gold coins for the four of them, and they can naturally let you pass. But I'm asking two gold coins per person, so a total of eight gold coins is needed." Just then, Chen Biao also walked up, with more than 50 small Luo Ro following behind him, most of whom were four-star or three-star Grand Masters, with considerable strength.
