Inside the carriage.
Li Wanji withdrew her Right Hand, a sharp pain shooting through her wrist.
For a moment, she stared at Zhou You, her mind in turmoil.
She couldn't understand it at all!
Had things gone completely off the rails?
Since when did Loose Cultivators in the secular world possess such methods?
Could it be that she had made a mistake?
Zhou You smiled awkwardly, "Did I hurt you? I'm very sorry, I often use my Right Hand, so I was a bit too strong."
Often use his Right Hand?
Li Wanji leaned back as far as she could, glancing at his lower body, then at his Right Hand, feeling a bit disgusted.
Zhou You shrugged, leaned back silently, and closed his eyes as if asleep.
Li Wanji's gaze fell to her wrist; two distinct red marks stood out on her wheat-colored skin.
Was it an illusion?
This person seemed unreliable, so how could he possess such terrifying finger strength?
Thinking of this, Li Wanji lifted the carriage curtain and sat outside to converse with Zhou Chen.
She felt that no matter what the truth was, she should maintain a good relationship with Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen began to inquire, "Miss Li..."
"Just call me by my name."
Li Wanji said, "These past few years, no one has really treated me like a woman."
Her imposing stature indeed made it difficult to associate her with being a woman. With a beard, she would definitely be a rough big man.
Zhou Chen chuckled, "Wanji, is the place we're going to where the Blood Shadow Wolves came from? I remember you said there's also a sixth-grade Blood Shadow Wolf King there? Is it really that terrifying?"
Li Wanji's expression immediately became much more serious, "That's right, a sixth-grade Yao Beast already possesses a demonic core, and its strength is quite terrifying. Even a Zhen Xuan Realm expert would find it difficult to survive three exchanges. However, when I was chasing those fleeing Blood Shadow Wolves, I heard that a Spirit Connection Realm expert went to deal with it."
Zhou Chen was shocked, "Spirit Connection Realm? Heavens, such a figure would appear?"
In the secular world, those who understood the Zhen Xuan Realm were already few and far between, let alone the Yin Yang Realm?
Li Wanji nodded, "After all, that area is a battlefield."
After speaking, she cautioned again, "This is your first time on the front lines, there's a lot you don't understand. Remember, our purpose this time is just to let you get familiar with it. Do not be greedy for achievement and rush forward, and never be alone."
Zhou Chen nodded repeatedly, "I remember."
Li Wanji asked, "What is your Blood Spirit?"
Zhou Chen gasped, "I'm only at the first heaven of Tuotai Realm; I haven't reached Spirit Connection Realm yet."
"Hmm?"
Li Wanji was startled, "Really?"
Zhou Chen said, "Yes, and I just had a Breakthrough not long ago."
Li Wanji frowned, then her eyes showed shock. In her perception, Zhou Chen was indeed in the Tuotai Realm.
How could someone in the Tuotai Realm so easily deal with so many Blood Shadow Wolves?
All of this could only mean that she was indeed exceptionally talented and cultivated a legendary Divine Rank Cultivation Technique.
"That's strange indeed."
Li Wanji mused inwardly, completely bewildered. "Where would a small Family in the secular world get a Divine Rank Cultivation Technique?"
Even the Sect she belonged to didn't possess a Divine Rank Cultivation Technique.
Zhou Chen asked curiously, "By the way, Wanji, what School are you from?"
The Demon Subduing Division was not a School, but a place where those who had achieved success in Cultivation would join, mainly to quickly obtain abundant Cultivation resources.
As long as you were willing to work hard and endure hardships, Cultivation resources would not be lacking.
This was the guarantee provided by the Hua Xia Dynasty.
"From the Water Rhyme Sect."
Li Wanji whispered, a hint of displeasure in her brows.
Zhou Chen exclaimed, "The top 500 Sects on Kunyuan Continent, oh my, I didn't expect your background to be so great. It is said that the Water Rhyme Sect can even rank in the top 100, right?"
Li Wanji scoffed, "I'm just an Outer Sect Disciple, there's nothing to brag about."
Zhou Chen was still excited, "Second Master, the Water Rhyme Sect, it's really amazing."
Zhou You didn't even lift his eyelids, "Never heard of it, I've only heard of the Moon Emperor Sect."
Li Wanji was already in a bad mood when discussing this matter, and hearing that, she became even more annoyed, "Heh heh, as if you know someone from the Moon Emperor Sect."
Zhou You finally opened his eyes, lifted the carriage curtain, and said with a hint of excitement, "Don't tell me, I really do know one. They're just different from normal people, you know, they have a halo behind their head? The one I saw happened to have a crescent-shaped halo behind their head."
Hearing this, Li Wanji immediately showed a look of disdain, "Isn't that just a brain problem? Wasting spiritual energy to condense illusory objects?"
Zhou You said very seriously, "Can what I saw with my own eyes be false? But my Master also said it was pretentious and a waste of spiritual energy."
Li Wanji frowned, believing Zhou You was bragging. After all, even if such a person existed, they wouldn't be an ordinary Cultivator. "In a moment, are you also going to say that you know someone from the Haotian Sect?"
Zhou You couldn't help but be surprised, "How did you know?"
Li Wanji sighed, then sneered, "Being a person, one's strength can be very weak, but constantly bragging is truly annoying."
Zhou You quickly said, "I really have seen him, the Haotian Sect Sect Master, just a small old man, at most one meter six..."
"Enough."
Li Wanji was filled with disgust. She hated self-important men the most in her life. Always fabricating big talk to deceive women's hearts. "It's not that I doubt you, do you know which direction the Haotian Sect faces?"
"Uh..."
Zhou You said awkwardly, "I really don't know that. He came to visit my Master."
"Heh heh."
Li Wanji shook her head repeatedly. The Haotian Sect was the number one Sect!
Such a powerful School didn't even care about the Hua Xia Dynasty!
If he really knew the Haotian Sect Sect Master, would he still be here? He would have soared long ago.
And what about the Haotian Sect Sect Master visiting his Master? Wouldn't that be a laughingstock?
She even suspected that if this topic continued, he would claim to be the Disciple of the Town Guardian Envoy!
Men... they truly never change their habit of bragging.
Zhou You rubbed his nose, feeling uncomfortable, and also indignant in his heart, "When each of them came to see my Master, they were all so prim and proper, but I didn't expect that when I said I knew them, I would be looked down upon. It seems that in the future, I should talk less about such topics, or preferably not at all."
He didn't care much, perhaps judging the 'unconventional' with 'conventional' was inherently abnormal.
Zhou Chen stuck out her tongue and dared not continue the topic, fearing an argument would break out.
There was no more talk along the way. In the afternoon, a pungent smell filled the air around them.
Zhou You stuck his head out of the carriage window and looked out.
The weather was as usual, but the feeling it gave off had completely changed.
The foul air was permeated with the lingering scent of blood, and wherever the eye could see, faint traces of blood were scattered across the ground.
Li Wanji gripped her copper hammer and said in a deep voice, "We have now entered the Seventeenth Ring area. Everyone be careful, there might be Yao Beasts lurking nearby."
Zhou You's gaze fell to the ground, "Careful!"
Boom!
The ground exploded, and a huge mouth appeared, trying to completely swallow the carriage.
