Chapter 139: Yuan Mengling, Encountering Enemies on a Joint Journey
"What?!" The crowd was stunned by the sudden change, some were amazed at the extraordinary beauty brought by Meng Leng's Xianyu technique, but others were shocked by Meng Leng's instant killing of the enemy.
"Please forgive me for my rudeness, I don't know who this young lady is..." At this time, a sturdy man with a headband on his forehead came to Meng Ling's front, clasped his fists and asked in a friendly manner.
"Yuan Mengling." She thought it was quite good to add her original surname to her current name. However, since she hadn't used Chinese in a long time, she felt a bit awkward. To others, it seemed like a little girl being shy, but when they recalled how this young lady could kill without batting an eye, everyone's minds immediately snapped back to reality.
"What brings Miss Yuan here?" the strong man continued to ask.
"I'm here for them." Meng Ling pointed at Gai Ne and Tian Ming who were still lying on the ground, saying slowly.
"Looking for us? What are you looking for?" Tian Ming rushed in front of Meng Leng and asked.
"You are Qin Guo's most wanted criminals, and that's why I came looking for you." Meng Ling said slowly.
"Are you a person from Qin State?" Upon hearing Meng Ling's words, Tian Ming immediately picked up the treasured sword on the ground and blocked Gai Nie in front of him.
"No, on the contrary, I'm here to help you." Meng Ling said with a wave of her hand.
"What does this mean?" Tianming's sword had already been put down in his hand, but he was still looking at Meng Ling with some vigilance.
"I've been searching for your whereabouts because someone said it would be interesting to follow you, so I came after you. After all, the greatest power in the world is now the Qin Empire. I think if we can confront this great power, it will definitely be very interesting." Meng Ling said with a smile, but the people around her had already fallen down in large numbers. It seemed that this innocent and naive girl was here for such a reason, and everyone's heart was filled with a burst of cold sweat.
"Huh, why did you have such an idea." At this time, Xiao Yu (also known as Xiang Yu in his youth) came to Meng Ling's front, first blushing a little, and then asked.
"Just like all of you young masters from various families." Meng Ling said calmly.
"What is this 'Hundred Schools of Thought' you speak of?" At that moment, a white-haired man beside him asked Meng Ling.
"I don't belong to any of the hundred schools of thought, I'm not a person from Qin State, nor am I a person from the hundred schools of thought. You could say I'm a third-party force. However, now that I've taken a dislike to Ying Zheng, I'll oppose him. Since you're his most wanted fugitives, I'll come and protect you. Anyway, whatever he wants to do, I'll destroy it." Meng Ling said.
"We don't need your protection at all, Uncle is much more powerful than you, Uncle is the strongest." At this time, Tianming this kid started shouting loudly. But...
"Little friend, I'm not protecting you out of pity, but only to ruin Ying Zheng's plan. So, if you provoke me, I won't mind teaching you a lesson, you naughty little kid." Tian Ming was about to continue shouting, but Meng Ling suddenly appeared behind him, with a dagger in hand, pressed against Tian Ming's neck.
"Hiss......" Seeing this scene, a chill immediately rose from the hearts of everyone. Looking at the speed of this girl, even these practitioners didn't know how she had just moved.
"Let's not talk about that now, we must leave here. Since this girl has chased us to here, the people from Qin country are also not far away." The old man with a head full of white hair but a robust body said immediately.
"Understood, Mr. Fan." From Shaoyu's words, Mengying knew that this person was actually Fan Zeng, the core figure of the Xiang clan. However, he looked just like in the animation, always with a stern expression on his face.
"This young lady, please come with us too. Although we don't know your identity yet, but from the looks of it, you're not a bad person, and staying here is also very dangerous. It's better to leave this place first." The old man Fan said while preparing the horse carriage, addressing Meng Ling.
"Hmm, that's true, but you guys can't just look at the surface and believe others, this isn't a good habit for your future dominance." Meng Ling said lightly.
"Maybe, but since you've already said that, it seems I was right. Your previous comment about liking to cause trouble for Ying Zheng was just your own interface." Fan Zeng said to Meng Leng.
"Haha, you found out, but to be honest, I really admire someone, so I want to help them." Meng Ling said with a smile, scratching the back of his head in embarrassment. Meanwhile, after everyone had prepared some items, they drove two horse-drawn carriages and left this place.
————I am that gorgeous dividing line————
On the road, Meng Ling didn't idle around. First, he went to Gai Nie's carriage and took some of his fresh blood. Then, he asked Shao Yu for some more blood. After getting these, Meng Ling immediately created a shadow clone in his spiritual world and started refining the Blood Infant. Now, Meng Ling was only interested in two things in this world: one was the swordsmanship of this world, and the other was the mechanical arts of this world.
So, Meng Ling had the candidates for acquiring abilities, first was the Sword Saint - Gai Nei, then all members of the Liusha organization, and finally, it was the various people with different abilities from the Zhuzi Baijia.
"It seems that the carriages in this world are indeed not as comfortable as cars, now I understand why the world of the Death God is truly wonderful." Dreaming Leng sighed and said.
"Next, I need to collect the fresh blood of Weizhuang, the leader of the Liusha organization. At that time, I will use my left hand for vertical sword technique and my right hand for horizontal sword technique. This way, it's truly 'Vertical and Horizontal Sword Technique'. Hehe, it really resembles the dual swords combined by Xiaolongnu in 'The Return of the Condor Hero'." Mengying couldn't help but start her endless daydreaming.
At this time, everyone had already rushed to a desolate mountain ridge. In this place where there was no village in front and no store behind, Meng Ling also felt very bored, so she came to the top of the horse carriage. At this moment, Tian Ming was throwing stones with Shao Yu, although it's unknown where they picked them up from. Unfortunately, the stone thrown by Tian Ming hit Fan Zeng's occipital bone, while the stone thrown by Shao Yu was caught by Meng Ling.
"Don't throw stones around like that, it's very dangerous, don't you know?" Meng Ling said with some dissatisfaction while playing with the stone in her hand.
"Ah, sorry, I really didn't notice you." Seeing Meng Ling already sitting beside Tian Ming, he didn't know why but when he saw Meng Ling's back, Tian Ming started shaking all over. Maybe it was because of the eerie speed Meng Ling had just shown that scared him so much, and now his heart still had lingering fear. Just as everyone was still playing around, a person riding on horseback suddenly shouted: "Not good, we have trouble!" Meng Ling looked up to see that the speaker was none other than Xiao Yu's uncle - Xiang Liang.
"It's a pack of wolves!" Fan Zeng was also surprised. After all, in this place, wolves were the biggest enemies.
"It seems that this time, another incredible thing has arrived. Last time, there was a person similar to a giant bear dog, and this time, someone who can control the wolf tribe has come. I remember that in this Flowing Sand organization, there are also people who can control the bird and snake tribes. It looks like this trip is not going to be wasted either. Let's wait for tonight's battle." Dreaming thought to herself.
"Everyone be careful, we must work together to survive." At this time, Xiang Liang was giving orders to his subordinates, and now, Meng Ling's clone, who had spent three hours practicing the Blood Refining Technique, had also completed her task. Due to the relatively weak power of this world, the time it took was much shorter than expected. And at this moment, a new set of sword techniques appeared in Meng Ling's mind, Meng Ling knew that this should be Gai Nie's Vertical Sword Technique and his strongest killing move - Hundred Steps Flying Sword.
"Next is the horizontal sword technique of Weizhuang, after getting this, I will prepare to practice my own moves for my own卍解." Meng Ling thought and thought, her hand couldn't help but touch Guan Nie's Yuanhong Sword, with a strong curiosity, she picked it up unnaturally, just as she was about to observe it carefully, Tianming suddenly snatched it away.
"This is Uncle's thing, are you going to steal it?" Tian Ming asked with a fierce tone.
"I was originally just going to take a look, but I'll tell you one thing, I've stolen things before, and I don't mind trying to see what it's like to rob someone." Meng Ling said with an intentionally cold expression. Although she still didn't know why this kid was targeting her so much, she had already learned about his miserable life circumstances, so naturally she wouldn't bother to hold a grudge against him. After all, adding up their two lifetimes, Meng Ling's soul was now over thirty years old.
It was at this time that Gai, who had just woken up, was said to have something to say to everyone. So Shaoyu immediately called over the crowd. Gai Nie also solemnly spoke of what he knew.
"Everyone be careful, this time the one who is going to attack us is... the Wolf King." Gai Ne said very seriously.
"Is it the notorious leader of the Black Night Assassins, the Wolf King?" Xiang Liang asked immediately.
"Hmm!" Gai Nei replied.
"Since it's like that, then this time bringing over so many wolf packs and yet hesitating to take action, it seems he is waiting for the best opportunity." Fan Zeng said.
"What's the best timing?" Tian Ming asked immediately.
"The best time for an assassin is of course at night, you idiot." Shao Yu said with a bad tone.
"But to be honest, the darkness isn't that big of a deal. Sometimes what your eyes see isn't necessarily real. For a true master, the darkness is just a change in battlefield." Dreaming Cloud said.
"So what should we do then?" Upon hearing this sentence, not only did the eyes of Shao Yu Tian Ming and others light up, but even Gai Nei, known as the Sword Saint, had a hint of curiosity flash across his eyes.
"Meng Ling smiled and said: 'The foundation of martial arts is to be in harmony with nature.'"
