"Then I am truly grateful, Miss Tingyun." Derick showed a warm smile and said to Phantylia. A faint smile appeared on Phantylia's face. "You
"Then I am truly grateful, Miss Tingyun."
Derick showed a warm smile and said to Phantylia.
A faint smile appeared on Phantylia's face. "You are too kind. I wonder when you plan to set off? This little lady will go and ask for leave from Lady Yukong right away."
Derick thought for a mont and said, "If you're not tired, then shall we set off now?"
"Of course, that's perfect."
Phantylia then went to ask for leave from Yukong. After she was done, she walked out of the Spices-of-Life Inn with Derick, Castorice, Stelle, and March 7th.
On the way, Derick asked where they should go to find the Disciples of Sanctus dicus.
Phantylia thought for a mont and said to Derick, "Regarding the Disciples of Sanctus dicus, I rember hearing that they are an organization that has been circulating on the Xianzhou for a thousand years. Since the General said that people from the Disciples have appeared on the Luofu again, why don't we go to the Earth-Balancing Commission and ask the staff there if they know anything?"
"Mhm."
Derick let Phantylia handle it with confidence.
Knowing that the other party was a bad person made using them completely stress-free. Especially at the beginning, to lure him into her trap, Phantylia would probably have to give him so benefits.
It's a good thing I'm not a lecherous guy. Otherwise, if I tried to take so advantage of "Tingyun," Phantylia would probably agree to it.
As Derick thought of this, he couldn't help but rember the ti he helped the real Tingyun deal with the Destruction energy in her body. At that ti, through his second clone, he had seen every inch of her body.
As he was thinking this, Phantylia led them to Central Starskiff Haven. This was the most bustling place on the Luofu, and the Earth-Balancing Commission had many staff mbers here.
Phantylia went to communicate with the staff, asking if there had been any problems on the Luofu recently.
Initially, the people from the Earth-Balancing Commission were a little reluctant to see "Tingyun," soone from the Sky-Faring Commission, inquiring about their affairs. But then Derick showed the command token given to him by General Jing Yuan, and the staff imdiately obeyed, searching for any unusual incidents.
"Hmm… there's really not much news about the Disciples of Sanctus dicus here. But if you're talking about unusual incidents, there really is one," the staff mber of the Earth-Balancing Commission said to Derick and "Tingyun" after checking so data.
"What kind of unusual incident?" Derick asked curiously.
The staff mber said, "It's like this. A Cloud Knight mber reported that she encountered a very strange outworlder at Cloudford. However, she said that the person healed several injured Xianzhou natives along the way, so it was preliminarily determined that they are not a bad person, but their origin is indeed mysterious. That Cloud Knight mber is currently tracking him, so the specific situation is still unknown."
"What does this have to do with the Disciples of Sanctus dicus?" Castorice asked from the side, curious.
"Because the healing thods used by this mysterious person are clearly beyond that of an ordinary physician, it's feared that it's related to the power of the Abundance."
A mysterious person? The power of the Abundance?
A guess ford in Derick's mind.
The staff mber imdiately said, "I'll go and contact that Cloud Knight mber now. She will be here shortly."
"Thank you for your trouble."
Soon, the Cloud Knight mber ntioned by the staff hurried over.
Derick looked at the person who had arrived. She was petite, with a pretty face, brown hair tied in twin pigtails, and wore long boots that exposed her slender legs. What was most striking were her eyes, clear and bright, with a kind of beauty that hadn't been polluted by knowledge.
Mhm, it's Big Pillow Li, Li Sushang herself.
"What do you need for?" Sushang asked the staff mber doubtfully.
The staff mber pointed at Derick. "They are envoys sent by the General to investigate abnormal incidents. You take them to see the person you were tracking."
"Oh, oh, so that's it. Don't worry, I will definitely complete my mission." Sushang nodded repeatedly upon hearing this. Then she turned to look at Derick and the others.
"Then there's no ti to lose. Let's set off now!"
"Alright, thank you for your trouble," Derick said to Sushang.
"No need to thank , no need. It's what I should do," Sushang waved her hands repeatedly.
Looking at Derick's handso face and clean aura, Sushang felt a little happy in her heart.
Led by Sushang, the group headed in the direction she had been monitoring.
On the way, Sushang also introduced herself, "My na is Sushang. I haven't been a Cloud Knight on the Luofu for long."
"Then where were you before? What place?" Phantylia asked in a casual tone from the side.
"Miss Tingyun, I was on the Xianzhou Yaoqing before," Sushang said, scratching her head a little embarrassedly.
"The Xianzhou Yaoqing…" Phantylia's gaze turned to Derick at the side. "Little Brother Derick is the new student of the Yaoqing's General. In that case, you two can be considered old acquaintances."
"What? You're General Feixiao's student?" Hearing Phantylia's words, Sushang stopped in her tracks and asked Derick.
"Yes, I just beca Teacher Feixiao's student," Derick nodded.
Hearing Derick admit he was Feixiao's student, Sushang's eyes lit up with admiration. "Wow, General Feixiao's student! Derick, you will definitely beco a very remarkable person in the future."
Growing up, Sushang had always listened to the various battle exploits of Feixiao. Now that Feixiao had beco a general, she was even more of an object of her admiration. For Derick to say he was her student, it was impossible for Sushang not to be excited.
"He doesn't need to wait for the future. I already think he's pretty remarkable right now," Stelle muttered from the side.
Castorice, hearing this, nodded repeatedly.
The others didn't know what Derick had done on Amphoreus, but she, as a party involved, knew it all too well. No matter what others thought, in the hearts of Castorice and the other people of Amphoreus, he was the model of a hero.
The group arrived at the place Sushang had been monitoring, just in ti to see a blond man drinking tea in front of a tea stall. The giant white coffin was placed to one side, and he paid no mind to the strange looks from the people around him.
Sure enough, the strange outworlder who ca to the Xianzhou is this Luocha.
A guy who is very likely an Emanator of the Abundance.
Derick glanced at Phantylia beside him.
At this ti, if these two were to fight, what would the result be? Who would win and who would lose?
Derick thought to himself, but he knew that such a thing was impossible. Luocha and Phantylia were both ticulous and deep-scheming individuals. To expect them to fight upon eting was incredibly unlikely.
However, there was another matter that Derick felt was very likely to happen. If he took out Stelle's or March 7th's phone right now, took a picture of Luocha, and then sent it to Welt Yang…
Derick guaranteed that Welt's subsequent speed would be the fastest he had ever moved in his life. Even if he wasn't Otto, Welt Yang would have to throw a few black holes at him.
While Derick was quietly observing Luocha, Luocha had naturally also noticed them. In fact, Sushang's quiet observation hadn't escaped him all this ti. Now that a few more had arrived, he had noticed them as well.
At first, he thought four more people had co. But then he noticed Derick, and a look of interest appeared on his face.
So besides Sushang, five more people have co this ti. I didn't even notice this young man at first. His strength is truly not simple.
And that Lord Ravager… she's hidden herself really well. If I hadn't known in advance, I might not have been able to detect her identity.
He quietly called over the owner of the tea stall.
"What is he doing?" Sushang watched from a distance, not knowing Luocha's next move.
Soon, the tea stall owner brought over six cups of tea and placed them in front of Luocha.
Seeing the six cups of tea on the stall, Derick knew they had been discovered. So he didn't bother to hide anymore and walked towards Luocha. As he walked over, Castorice naturally followed behind him.
"Hey, you'll be discovered if you do that!" Seeing Derick's action, Sushang called out softly and anxiously.
"We've already been discovered," Derick said to Sushang, then quickly walked up to Luocha.
"Hello. I didn't expect the Xianzhou Luofu to have such a handso young man like you," Luocha said to Derick.
Derick was used to it by now. After changing into the Xianzhou-style clothes, which made his looks go up another level, almost everyone who saw him for the first ti was accustod to complinting his appearance.
Sushang followed behind Derick. Seeing Luocha glance at her, she looked a little embarrassed.
"Um, Mr. Luocha, I don't think you're a bad person, it's just…" Sushang's little head thought for a long ti, but she didn't know how to explain.
"Don't worry, Miss Sushang, I have no intention of blaming you." Luocha lightly sipped his tea. After he put down the cup, he said to the group, "I ca to the Xianzhou Luofu with ulterior motives in the first place."
"What!?" Sushang imdiately stood up in surprise, her right hand on her longsword.
"So you really are an enemy!" At so point, Stelle had also taken out her baseball bat.
Luocha's tone was still calm. He pushed the teacups towards them and said, "Drink so tea first. There are many people here. If we fight, it might cause a commotion. You wouldn't want Central Starskiff Haven to fall into chaos, would you?"
"Alright."
Derick took the tea. At the sa ti, his eyes also glanced at Luocha's coffin.
Inside there is the remnant of [Propagation]. If I could really take it…
He wanted it very much in his heart, but Derick knew that Luocha's strength was unfathomable. Besides, with Ruan i around, and with his second clone, he would be able to get his hands on so of it sooner or later.
After finishing the tea, Luocha stood up.
Sushang, March 7th, and Stelle also stood up nervously at the sa ti. Phantylia pretended to be scared and hid behind Derick and Castorice.
"You few… can you walk with for a bit? When we get to a place with no people, we can talk," Luocha said to them.
Derick nodded.
Then, the group walked towards the side of Central Starskiff Haven.
After walking for a long distance, there weren't many people around. Seeing that no one was there, Luocha finally stopped.
Seeing Luocha stop, Phantylia imdiately said to him, "Mister, you can't run anymore. This little lady has already notified the Cloud Knights. By now, the Cloud Knights have probably surrounded this area."
"Don't worry, I won't run," Luocha shook his head.
He even said lightly, "Not only will I not run away, but on the contrary, I will also bring my accomplice with ."
"Acc-accomplice!?" Sushang said nervously, gripping the longsword in her hand and looking around nervously.
As she looked around, she heard the sound of heavy boots stepping on the ground. She quickly looked in the direction of the sound and saw a woman with a longsword in hand and a blindfold over her eyes walking over.
Although her eyes were covered, her cold aura and stunning face still gave people a great shock.
She stood there like an iceberg. It naturally made people want to challenge her.
Either I conquer you, or you conquer .
"To think he brought Jingliu here as well. This ti when I go to see General Jing Yuan, the surprise will probably be big enough." Derick thought to himself.
Phantylia looked at Jingliu and thought that this trip was really worthwhile. The previous Sword Champion of the Luofu, although her strength was not at the Emanator level, she was among the top tier below it. If she were to really run amok on the Xianzhou, and with this Luocha whose true strength she couldn't see through beside her, it might really ruin her plans.
Now the situation was much better.
Jingliu walked to Luocha's side at this mont and asked with a puzzled tone, "You brought people to the appointed place. What for?"
"I'm not a fighter. Even if I'm caught, I want to find an accomplice who can protect ," Luocha said with a faint smile.
"Hmph." Jingliu snorted coldly, then her gaze turned to Derick and the others.
"If you want to catch , then it depends on your ability."
The original plan was only to get captured and then go to see the Luofu's General. But Jingliu was not an honest person. Before seeing her disciple, she wanted to see the current strength of the Xianzhou Luofu first.
Derick stepped forward with the Lance of Divine Retribution in hand.
"Castorice, you all step back first. I'll deal with her." While raising his longsword, Derick said to the others.
He also wanted to see how much of a gap there was between himself and the current Jingliu. At the sa ti, while seeing the gap, he could also learn from Jingliu's sword techniques.
In terms of skill, Jingliu's swordsmanship was even above Feixiao's. Feixiao's strength in combat was in her battlefield presence and execution. These were all effective, and Derick wanted to learn them all.
Sensing Derick's sword-raising posture and the aura emanating from him, an interested expression appeared on Jingliu's lips.
"Oh? It seems you're very confident in your swordsmanship. In that case, let see what you're capable of."
Jingliu also raised her sword.
"Derick, student of the Xianzhou Yaoqing's General Feixiao. Please enlighten ."
Hearing Derick's self-introduction, Jingliu also stated her na.
"Jingliu. Just a wandering swordswoman."
With that, she took her stance, gesturing for Derick to attack.
