  ————

  If it's someone who has been to the ancient ruins before, seeing this dark-skinned big man would definitely make their mouth open wide enough to fit an egg. What the hell is this bastard doing here?

  Not bad, this dark and sinister guy in front of me is naturally Jiang Xiao Yu.

  "Be careful, this person is suspicious! The intelligence I've gathered suggests that the opponent has a Shin Kyo monk! His name seems to be Kuroshu! How black should he be, could it be him?" Qing Shu transmitted to the two.

  For a moment, the three people's faces turned very unsightly. If it was really this person, they might have to settle accounts here today.

  Jiang Xiaoyu looked puzzled, wondering why he was being stared at with hostility. Could it be that his approach was wrong? Thinking carefully, he realized that showing up in the middle of the night and suddenly asking to form a team did seem a bit strange. But this logic seemed normal!

  The role I'm playing is that of a bored and idle superior being, who sees three little guys sneaking around together, and then thinks about joining them in their sneaky activities, which is quite normal! Okay, haven't gotten to that part yet!

  After clearing his throat, Jiang Xiaoyu said: "Cough cough, it's like this, I'm so bored that I'm about to die! So, I want to find something to do. You three are up all night and not sleeping, what do you want to go do?"

  "May I ask where you are from?" Hao Yun asked with a stiff upper lip.

  It's likely that the guy in front of him is Hei Zhu, the current leader of Di Yuan. He's a moody and ruthless killer, so when he speaks, it seems like he doesn't have much confidence.

  "My surname is Zhang, and my name is Yide!" The dark-skinned big man chuckled.

  "Zhang Yide? Have you guys heard of this name?"

  "None." "I've never heard of it either."

  "Could it be that Hei Zhu's real name is actually...?"

  Three people whispered to each other, thinking of ways to get out of their current predicament. They couldn't let the disciples of the other two sects wait anxiously, that would be impolite. No, now it's not a matter of politeness or not, but rather their own lives are at stake!

  "Not really, are you guys going to form a team or not?" Jiang Xiaoyu's tone was slightly impatient.

  Today, I saw Qing Shu by myself, so I followed him all the way. Later, I found that where he went was almost the same as what the system prompted me! Now, I have thoroughly confirmed that both parties' goals are consistent, which is why he changed his identity and came here.

  Qing Shu asked: "What is this 'group' that senior is talking about?"

  Jiang Xiaoyu was slightly surprised. Didn't even know how to form a team? These two simple and easy-to-understand words, you actually don't know? Is your brain made of flour?

  "What is meant by teaming up is that we form a team to accomplish something, and this is called teaming up." Jiang Xiaoyu still seemed very patient on the surface.

  The three of them listened intently, their hearts tightening involuntarily. Hadn't this guy already discovered what they were planning to do? The next sentence made their hearts leap into their throats.

  "Hmph, what do you think you little rabbits can do? I don't know?" Jiang Xiaoyu said with his hands in his chest, looking very confident.

  The three of them exchanged a glance, nodded to each other in secret, and since they had already been discovered, there was no need to hold back anymore. They launched a direct attack, aiming to catch the opponent off guard!

  Just as they were about to take action, the burly man said another sentence, "I'm asking you three, do you still want to save your master or not? If you want to save him, hurry up, my big knife is starving!" Where's my knife?

  After fumbling for half a day, he still couldn't find his own knife. Jiang Xiaoyu said that his big knife was starving and unbearable, because he thought this sentence was very impressive!

  "Lead the way quickly, let's catch them off guard!"

  After saying this sentence, the three of them were stunned, wasn't this person Hei Zhu?

  Hao Yun seemed to have thought of something in his heart, then asked: "May I ask, senior, are you the legendary Black Master?"

  "Black pig? You dare to scold me, you're the one who's a pig! If it weren't for my senior brother finding me, I wouldn't have come over to help you guys!" The dark and robust man seemed very displeased.

  His senior fellow disciple, who is his senior fellow disciple?

  Seeing the three of them looking puzzled and unable to understand, Jiang Xiaoyu couldn't help but think that these three were really stupid! It was hard for them to be so foolish, so he continued: "The master's senior brother is the one you asked for at the inn today!"

  It turned out to be the junior brother of that senior! The three of them were suddenly overjoyed, it seemed that this person in front of them was not the Black Master after all, and now they could finally relax. However, that senior was really something, letting his own junior brother come to help without even telling them a word.

  Hao Yun exclaimed: "So it's Elder Zhang, I thought your senior brother wouldn't be willing to help, but unexpectedly he let you come over."

  As he looked at the dark and large man, he couldn't help but feel that this guy was lovely in a few ways. He just didn't expect that the appearance of his senior and junior brothers would be so different. Judging from their appearance alone, it should have been him who became the senior brother. You can't judge people by their looks, nor can you measure the sea with a bucket! Almost everyone's evaluation of the dark and large man was this way.

  It can be seen that he is indeed not very good-looking.

  "No need for such courtesy with me, just lead the way. With me around, I guarantee your safety!" The burly man patted his own chest.

  The three of them suddenly felt a sense of security, with a divine bridge cultivator covering them, their moods all changed. If they knew that the person protecting them in front of them was just a beginner in the Qi Refining stage, who knows if they would vomit blood?

  "Senior, apart from us, there are others." Hao Yun didn't wait for the other party to ask and continued: "The four disciples of Fengyun Gate and the four disciples of Xuanyin House. Originally, our eleven people didn't have a great chance of winning. Now with Senior joining, we will definitely win."

  Jiang Xiaoyu slapped him on the head with a loud slap and scolded, "Cut the nonsense, lead the way, lead the way!"

  He rubbed his own head, Hao Yun was quite helpless. After all, he was also a cultivator of the Huolong Secret Realm, and yet he was still being beaten like a child. Fortunately, there were not many people here, so he didn't have to worry about being recognized.

  Xiao Yu and Qing Shu couldn't help but laugh at this, it was the first time they saw their senior brother being so outdone. Although this senior had a bad temper, he did things cleanly and efficiently, swift and decisive, which suited their taste! For a moment, their impression of him greatly improved, far surpassing that annoying guy from daytime!

  The person they were thinking of in their hearts was naturally Jiang Xiaoyu.

  "By the way, who is this Black Lord you people are talking about?" The dark-skinned big man asked curiously.

  Hao Yun explained: "Hei Zhu is the current leader of the Earth Abyss, a powerful Shenqiao cultivator. I estimate that he has at least the strength of the fifth heaven of Shenqiao! Currently, among the Shenqiao cultivators in the Earth Abyss, there is probably only him."

  As he spoke, he couldn't help but glance at the dark-skinned big man, wanting to see his expression change.

  He saw his opponent smile disdainfully and say: "The mere Five Heavens of the Divine Bridge are nothing to me!"

  Listen, this is what real power looks like. A cultivator from the Five Heavens of Shen Bridge can dominate a region and, if they so choose, establish their own sect and create a great legacy! But in his opponent's mouth, it's actually being belittled to such an extent!

  The three of them began to speculate about the specific strength of this senior, was it God Bridge Sixfold Heaven? Sevenfold Heaven? Could it be that he was a peak cultivator of God Bridge Ninefold Heaven? In short, at present, the three of them were full of confidence and had nothing to fear! It's likely that this senior alone would be enough to kick the entire Earth Abyss into submission.

  They soon arrived at Dongzhijie Street, where eight people were standing on one side, seemingly waiting for someone.

  Hao Yun quickened his pace, walking ahead of the three, then smiled at the eight and said: "I'm really sorry, I encountered some things on the road and delayed for a bit, I hope everyone won't mind."

  "Hao Gongzi is being polite." The eight of them spoke politely as well.

  The other party is also the young master of a first-rate sect, how dare they offend him too much? Moreover, this time we are united against the enemy, it's not good to create gaps, everyone should work together in harmony.

  "I wonder who this is..." The woman carrying a sword on her back couldn't help but glance at Jiang Xiaoyu curiously. She was the eldest senior sister of the Xuanming Sect, with strength that had reached the seventh heaven of Dragon Transformation, and was thirty-seven years old this year, with hopes of stepping into the Divine Bridge in her lifetime.

  Hao Yun patted his own forehead and laughed, saying: "Look at my memory, I was so busy apologizing to everyone that I forgot to introduce him. This is a guest of our Liuyun Sect, who usually travels the world and happened to bump into us today, so we invited him over to wish us good luck! Just now on the road, it was also because of this matter that we were delayed for some time."

  After finishing speaking, Hao Yun transmitted his voice to Jiang Xiaoyu, "The junior acted on his own initiative, I suppose the senior won't blame him?"

  Regarding the matter of transmitting sound, Jiang Xiaoyu still didn't know how to do it, and merely nodded slightly with a neutral expression on his face. The three of them were fine just fooling around among themselves, but now that there were so many people present, it was better for him to speak less, lest he say something wrong.

  Liuyun Sect has a guest minister of Shenqiao boundary? The disciples of the two sects felt a pang of envy in their hearts, they were also top-notch sects, but unfortunately, only the sect master was a Shenqiao boundary cultivator, and there were no others.

  For some top forces, the Divine Bridge is the only standard to measure strength. Because only when reaching the Divine Bridge will one's lifespan increase, and those below the Divine Bridge can't compare to a hundred years of age. With a Divine Bridge cultivator present, they can support an entire sect for several generations!

  "Is there anything else you'd like to say?"

  Hao Yun smiled and asked.

  Apart from the intelligence brought by Qing Shu, there is also some information that these people told themselves, such as news about Hei Zhu and so on.

  "I've just received intel that Tian will be arriving in four days at the earliest! Currently, there are no cultivators from Shen Qiao boundary in that area!" said Ye Ling, the leader of Feng Yun Gate. He was thirty-nine this year and Xiang Long secret realm was also Seventh Heaven!

  "Heaven helps those who help themselves! Let's hurry up and take action, or else changes will occur if we delay!"

  Everyone nodded and then left Dongzhijie Street.
