749: Chapter 562: To Be Able to Actually Control Earth Fire 749: Chapter 562: To Be Able to Actually Control Earth Fire A familiar voice ca, and Wang Yang couldn’t help but let his gaze fall on the woman, revealing a hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth.
The girl before him was graceful and beautiful, a nation’s beauty and heavenly fragrance, a stark contrast to the middle-aged woman who had set up the booth previously.
But while appearances can be disguised, voices cannot be changed!
This was indeed the girl’s sche, luring him to co here in the dead of night on purpose.
“Xiao Qian, this young master was first spotted by , and moreover, I was the first to co out.
According to the rules, you can’t snatch him from !”
Seeing Wang Yang seed interested in Xiao Qian, a woman from the crowd hastily spoke up first.
“Exactly, exactly, Sister Xiao Qian, your business is already so good, you mustn’t snatch clients from us sisters anymore!”
“Xiao Qian!
Can’t you leave us so soup to sip on after you’ve eaten the at?”
“Sisters, I haven’t taken a guest in a long ti!”
Listening to the won chattering away one after another, Wang Yang truly had a bit of a headache; it turned out he had beco a hot commodity.
“Enough!
The final choice rests in the young master’s hands.
What is this commotion about?”
Suddenly, a voice rose from within the restaurant.
It made the won instantly shut their mouths, daring not to speak further.
Following that, a mature woman full of charm stepped forward, giving Wang Yang a deep bow and said sweetly.
“Forgive us for the spectacle, young master!
Please, co inside!”
Wang Yang smiled, nodded, and stepped into the restaurant.
“A group of no-good things!”
After Wang Yang entered the restaurant, a murderous intent flashed in the eyes of the middle-aged woman, who barely muttered through her lips.
The young won looked at each other, all bowing their heads, not daring to utter a word of rebuttal.
“Welco to the Jinling Restaurant, I am Linglong, the proprietress here.
May I know which lady the young master took a liking to just now?”
Wang Yang looked at the enchanting proprietress, smiled, and pointed at Xiao Qian with a firm tone.
“Her!”
Linglong saw Wang Yang choose Xiao Qian and a flicker of confusion crossed her eyes, but it vanished in an instant.
She smiled and replied, “The young master has excellent taste indeed.
Miss Xiao Qian is the signature charm of our Jinling Restaurant!”
“Xiao Qian, aren’t you going to co and serve the young master?”
“I would like a relatively quiet environnt!”
Seeing the ground floor of the restaurant in utter chaos, Wang Yang spoke up directly.
Then, with a flick of his finger, a bar of gold flew into Linglong’s hands!
“Of course!
Xiao Qian, take the young master up to one of the second-floor rooms to rest!”
After receiving the gold, Linglong gave an order with a smile, her eyebrows slightly knitted as she shot Xiao Qian a aningful glance.
Xiao Qian nodded, understanding her intent, and approached Wang Yang, saying in a submissive whisper.
“This way, young master!”
Wang Yang nodded and, led by Xiao Qian, made his way to the second floor.
As soon as Wang Yang was gone, the murderous intent in Linglong’s eyes was revealed.
She had received a pigeon-transmitted ssage from the shopkeeper of the Jinling Inn that identified Wang Yang as an exorcist.
Even though she didn’t know his specific realm, one of the maids beside him, Su Yue, had a cultivation level of the Void-breaking Realm, so at the very least, Wang Yang must be above that realm!
Had it not been so, Linglong would not have co here in the middle of the night!
“Has Xiao Qian had any special circumstances recently?”
“After sunset, she must go out every night for an hour.”
Hearing this response, Linglong nodded her head in satisfaction.
Xiao Qian indeed owed debts that required her to go out to find prey to fulfill them!
“By the way, has there been any news about that scholar Xiao Qian let go last ti?”
“That scholar has long since left Jinling Town.
He seems to be headed for the Capital Luoyang.
We did not dare to pursue deeply!”
“Hmph!
A bunch of useless trash!
That scholar has the Pure Yang Blood, a single individual worth as much as the Yang Spirit Energy of hundreds of exorcists!”
“If Granny blas us, none of us can bear it!”
Linglong snorted coldly, murderous intent erupting from her, and the won seeing this hurried down to their knees, prostrating themselves on the ground, not daring to look up.
“We hope Elder Sister might speak kindly on our behalf in front of Granny, and spare us sisters from the extre penalty!”
“Get up, all of you!”
Linglong said coldly.
Letting go of the scholar was Nie Xiaoqian’s doing, and Granny had already punished Nie Xiaoqian by demanding the sacrifice of the Yang Spirit Energy of a hundred people within seven days as compensation.
But the responsibility of pursuing the scholar was her own!
Now, to avoid punishnt, they had no choice but to comnce a great slaughter!
“Within a hundred miles, any passerby at night, I permit you to let loose.
Go!”
“Yes, Elder Sister!”
Upstairs, in the room.
At this mont, Wang Yang was minding his own business, drinking wine, while Nie Xiaoqian sat to one side, continuously refilling his cup.
“Now that most have gone, you can speak your mind, Miss.”
Wang Yang sensed that aside from Linglong, the breath of the other won had already disappeared from downstairs.
“Why did you choose to trust Xiao Qian?”
“Heh!
You deliberately lured here without the slightest intent to kill, indicating that you must have sought my help.
But I’m curious, what makes you think I can help you?”
Wang Yang looked up, downing the wine in his cup, fingered the cup idly, and asked casually!
“Two things!”
“Oh?”
“First, young master’s cultivation level is at the Void-breaking Realm.
Second, your aura is profound, and I cannot see through it.
And in such a scenario, I’ve only ever encountered it in Granny.”
Wang Yang was noncommittal about Nie Xiaoqian’s explanation, but a term caught his attention.
Granny.
It seed there was indeed a mystery here.
“Granny?”
“Hmm, the young master might not know.
Before our deaths, all of us yin souls had imnse resentnt—either being frad and dying tragically, or wronged and humiliated to death, leading to our rejection by the Underworld upon death because of our towering rage,” Xiao Qian began.
Granny took us in, burned our corpses to ashes, and suppressed them under her roots, nourishing us with Monster Energy to turn us into these undying yin souls, to collect Yang Spirit Energy for her.”
