As soon as Dragon Teeth entered the city, it imdiately attracted attention from all around.
Mu Qingge also glanced curiously at this city belonging to the Floating Guest.
At first glance, this city seems no different. There are many shops, as well as tea houses, taverns, flowery streets, and willow alleys.
However, if you observe closely, you will find that the people here, whether they are doing business or walking on the street, carry a vigorous aura, and the air flows with a faint sll of blood.
The people here, all of them...
Mu Qingge can guarantee that there is absolutely no one whose hands haven’t touched human blood or lives!
’What a city of slaughter!’ Mu Qingge secretly raised her eyebrows; she liked such a city. Without hypocrisy or politeness, everything is as it naturally is.
"Is it Dragon Teeth?"
"It is Dragon Teeth. They have also arrived today. Today, the four major leaders of the Flowing Guest Realm are gathered here in Tianping City."
"Indeed, indeed! In the past, it was just the other three families, but now there’s one more. Who knows what excitent Tianping City will see in the days to co."
"Anyway, the interests have nothing to do with us. We’ll just watch the show!"
"Well said! Hahaha—!"
"However, I heard that the treatnt in Dragon Teeth is quite good, and joining offers many benefits. Shouldn’t we head to Luoxing City to join the fun after the affairs in Tianping City conclude?"
"Yes, yes, yes, Dragon Teeth is currently recruiting for the Dragon Blood Army. If there’s a chance, why not give it a try? Even if we aren’t chosen, going to Luoxing City to see the Luoxing wonders won’t be a wasted trip."
"Speaking of the Luoxing wonders, it truly is an unparalleled beauty. In the past two years, just welcoming those who ca to see the wonders has already been lucrative for Luoxing City, hasn’t it?"
"You’re really uninford; now everyone in the Flowing Guest Realm knows Luoxing City is rich, but no one dares to plan against it."
"Oh? How so?"
"What does Luoxing City operate? Apart from those unique wonders, it deals in Sang Clan weapons and perfect-quality elixirs. Not to ntion the daily influx of people being attracted into Luoxing City will drive all sorts of consumption, but every auction on the first floor each month has countless people scrambling to get in. Tsk-tsk, Luoxing City is not just rich; it’s filthy rich!"
"No wonder it can afford to raise so many people!"
From the street side, the chatter of Floating Guests drifted into Mu Qingge’s ears.
She pursed her lips and muttered, "Rumors are grossly inaccurate, who said Luoxing City is so rich? I’m clearly very poor!"
Bai Xi heard her mumble and couldn’t help but laugh softly, "You, always claiming to be poor, but I’ve never seen you really be that poor."
Mu Qingge glanced at her, full of grievance, "I’m trying to feed a big eater like you, isn’t that enough to be considered poor?"
Bai Xi imdiately teased, "Oh, co on! Whenever I hunt, I always manage by myself, and when do I ever need you to take care of ?"
"Then those Spirit Beasts housed in the City Lord Mansion..." Mu Qingge stroked her chin.
Bai Xi’s face changed, instantly acting coquettish, "Those are just appetizers for ."
Mu Qingge’s lips twitched, and she imdiately imagined thousands of Spirit Beasts crowded together in her mind. Appetizer? Hmm, indeed an appetizer...
"By the way, Yin Chen is already reaching a breakthrough; why don’t I notice you making progress?" Mu Qingge suddenly thought.
This ti coming to the Northern Continent, she initially intended to bring Yin Chen, but before departure, Yin Chen suddenly sensed a breakthrough and had to stay in Luoxing City.
Bai Xi pouted, "I am the Nine Extres Sky-devouring Python; each breakthrough equals an awakening of an ability, how could it be so fast."
"So how many abilities have you awakened now?" For Mu Qingge, this has always been a mystery. She never actively asked, and Bai Xi never actively told.
Bai Xi replied unsatisfactorily, "Seven."
"Only two left then," Mu Qingge comnted.
Bai Xi shook her head and suddenly looked seriously at Mu Qingge, "Only by awakening all nine of my abilities will I be qualified to accompany you into the Divine Demon Continent. Otherwise, I will only be a burden to you. I know this in my heart, and that pesky fox knows this too, which is why he has been cultivating like crazy these past two years. This ti, when he breakthrough, he will awaken the hidden bloodline within him, and I really want to see his hidden bloodline."
Bai Xi’s words ward Mu Qingge’s heart.
She told Bai Xi, "I am only at Golden Realm First Layer; I have quite a ways to go before going to the Divine Demon Continent. You do not need to push yourselves so hard."
Who would’ve thought, Bai Xi pouted, "Your abnormal cultivation speed cannot be compared to normal people. You might just wake up one day, and suddenly be at Golden Realm Sixth Layer."
"..." Mu Qingge was speechless.
Because when she went from Silver Realm Third Layer to Silver Realm Fifth Layer, she really broke through just by waking up inexplicably.
"Ahem, accumulating strength and breaking through cannot happen every ti," Mu Qingge finally explained weakly for herself.
...
"Commanders, the people from Dragon Teeth have arrived." A servant waiting by the window walked to the table and respectfully spoke to the three major leaders.
Xuan Yue, Bailian, and the Giant Spirit Commander, upon hearing his words, stood up together and walked to the window.
Gazing out the window, they saw a hundred-strong team walking along the street towards them below.
Unsurprisingly, Mu Qingge led the group and imdiately entered their view.
"I didn’t expect this ti for Lord Mu himself to co. He usually doesn’t oversee Dragon Teeth matters!" comnted Bailian Commander looking at the other two, implicitly.
The Giant Spirit Commander chuckled, "What’s so surprising, given the enticing wealth involved, how could Lord sit still?"
"That woman in white seems to have stayed by his side for quite a while," Xuan Yue Commander suddenly pointed at Bai Xi along the way talking to Mu Qingge.
They still had so impressions of Bai Xi.
After all, this absolute beauty often appeared beside Mu Qingge during her ti at Sunset Grassland and was intimately close to her, hard to ignore.
"Perhaps she’s his beloved. At a youthful and romantic age like his, it’s normal to have a couple of confidants," Bailian Commander casually remarked.
"Then what about the one on the other side?" Xuan Yue Commander pointed at Hou on the other side of Mu Qingge.
Following his direction, Bailian and the Giant Spirit Commanders looked over, their eyes imdiately squinted. Hou’s towering and robust physique and facial tattoos inspired a chill within them.
Especially those fierce-glowing eyes made one’s heart feel cold.
"When did Dragon Teeth have such a formidable character?" the Giant Spirit Commander exclaid in astonishnt.
Soone who could simultaneously send chills down the spines of all three of them was certainly no ordinary figure!
The three exchanged silent glances, as if the presence of Hou had weighed heavily on their hearts.
"It seems the conflict over interests this ti may have unexpected changes," Bailian Commander remarked aningfully after a brief pause.
"Sotis, just having an additional formidable ally won’t necessarily change the outco," the Giant Spirit Commander grumbled.
He really couldn’t bear the thought of giving up the interests he had in his grasp!
Just like making soone used to eating lavishly suddenly eat vegetarian, it would be extrely uncomfortable.
So, not only did the Giant Spirit Commander feel this way, but Xuan Yue and Bailian Commanders also felt a twinge of hope after he said that.
What if that chilling man was rely an expert hired externally by Dragon Teeth?
If soone is driven by interests, they will naturally be swayed by greater interests and abandon their original stance.
The three quietly calculated among themselves and decided to secretly investigate Hou’s origins, to understand why he appeared in the Dragon Teeth’s ranks.
After all, in the past two years, they hadn’t heard of such a person associated with Dragon Teeth or Luoxing City.
At this mont, the procession on the street had already reached the tea house’s window.
Suddenly, Mu Qingge looked upward towards the window, causing the three standing by the window to freeze, feeling as if they’d been caught.
However, Mu Qingge rely smiled lightly and withdrew her gaze nonchalantly.
"He seems to have noticed us," the Giant Spirit Commander said.
Bailian Commander mocked, "We’re standing right by the window; how could he not see us?"
"Should we go out to greet him?" the Giant Spirit Commander asked.
Xuan Yue Commander slowly shook his head, "He has noticed us but didn’t stop, which indicates he doesn’t wish to chat with us right now, so we shouldn’t step forward."
The other two, hearing that it makes sense, nodded and abandoned the idea of going out.
Outside the window, Dragon Teeth’s procession had passed by, gradually disappearing from sight.
Xuan Yue Commander said to the other two, "Let’s go back. Now that Dragon Teeth people have arrived, I think we can discuss serious matters tomorrow. As for tonight, since we are old friends, welcoming them together isn’t inappropriate."
Bailian and Giant Spirit Commanders exchanged a glance and agreed, saying to Xuan Yue Commander, "Alright."
...
In Tianping City, a Post House was specially designated for Dragon Teeth.
Among the Floating Guests, any team above Earth Level would have their own residence in any Flowing Guest clan, while Xuan Huang Second Level teams would have public residences.
Heavenly Level teams, however, would have specialized mansions, enjoying the highest level of treatnt.
The steward of the Tianping City Flowing Guest clan led Mu Qingge and her group to the entrance of Dragon Teeth’s Post House. After everything was arranged, soone delivered an invitation, saying that tonight the three major leaders, Xuan Yue, Bailian, and Giant Spirit, would jointly host a reception for Dragon Teeth and Mu Qingge at the Xuan Yue Post House.
Mu Qingge waved the invitation in her hand, smiling intriguingly, "It seems there’s a whiff of a Banquet at Hongn tonight."
"Little Lord, what is a Banquet at Hongn?" Mo Yang asked from the side.
Mu Qingge knew she misspoke and laughed it off, saying, "It’s nothing, just saying they’re inviting us not for the banquet, but likely for another purpose."
Mo Yang, after a mont of silence, said, "Should I go and decline them then?"
"No, wouldn’t it seem weak if we don’t go?" Mu Qingge raised an eyebrow.
Mo Yang frowned; he hoped Mu Qingge wouldn’t live so burdened and wished she could avoid so of these machinations. Given Dragon Teeth’s power now, even if they don’t go, others might only ntion it briefly, but nothing serious would happen.
Seeing Mo Yang’s concern, Mu Qingge smiled and reassured him, "Don’t worry, it’s just so subtle probing; there’s nothing to worry about."
Mo Yang lowered his gaze, speaking softly, "I just think, Little Lord has just had two years of peace, and now has to face these botherso affairs again, it ans I haven’t done my job well."
"You’ve done very well," Mu Qingge said sincerely, looking at Mo Yang.
She clasped her hands behind her back, gazing into the distance, and spoke to Mo Yang, "The path I chose is naturally filled with open and hidden dangers, all kinds of challenges. If I were to just hide away in my world, indulging in a false sense of peace, I’d likely have died countless tis over. Mo Yang, until my enemies are defeated, I’ll never truly have peace."
Enemies! Mu Tianyin!
For two years, this person had been like a thorn in her throat, never allowing her to forget.
In her reasons for becoming stronger, one more had been added — to personally eliminate Mu Tianyin.
A year ago, Si Mo had sent intelligence about Mu Tianyin to her, and that information made her unable to relax for a mont, hoping to soon get to the Divine Demon Continent to solve everything.
Moreover, the High Priest had already calculated that the Divine Strategy Lower Volu was likely in Mu Tianyin’s possession. Even if not, Mu Tianyin must know its exact whereabouts.
In Mu Qingge’s clear eyes was a sharp, cold glint.
At night, Mu Qingge, accompanied by Mo Yang, Bai Xi, and Hou, attended the banquet. Apart from those on the main seats, naturally, a squad of Dragon Tooth Guards would accompany them.
Upon arriving at the Xuan Yue Post House, those guarding outside enthusiastically welcod them in.
Entering the main hall, Mu Qingge found that the three major leaders, Xuan Yue, Bailian, and Giant Spirit, were already seated, sipping tea with lowered gazes. The remaining empty seats were naturally for Dragon Teeth.
The person leading them to the main hall retreated after fulfilling his duty.
Mu Qingge casually glanced at the empty seats, but did not imdiately occupy them, choosing instead to stand in the hall.
Then, Xuan Yue Commander sitting at the head position raised his eyes to look at her, saying, "Mu City Lord, you ca as well, it truly surprises us. Traveling all the way from Luoxing City must have been tiring. Here, let this cup of tea cleanse Mu City Lord’s fatigue." With that, he flicked his hand, sending a golden light shooting towards Mu Qingge with a cup of steaming tea.
The power carried the strength of the Golden Realm.
Bailian and Giant Spirit Commanders showed looks of amusent, wanting to see how Mu Qingge would handle the cup of tea.
As the teacup approached, Mu Qingge casually caught it, holding it to her lips and taking a sip, then smiled showing her teeth, "Excellent tea."
This scene caused the eyes of the three leaders to shrink suddenly in shock!
