Fights Break Sphere: Rock King's Leisurely Journey into the Mortal World

Chapter 6 Xiao Yan, do you have money?

A breeze picked up in the forest. The air, carrying the chill of the night, scraped across my skin, bringing a refreshing coolness. There were even a few tiny ice crystals suspended in the air, which, when they touched my skin, caused small goose bumps.

The moon was obscured by the incoming black clouds, with only a vague, dark halo peeking out from behind the thick layer. The wind swayed the tall treetops, creating a massive, slow rustling sound. The desert-like sea of ​​trees moved overhead, making the quiet night even more mysterious.

Zhongli's figure kept flashing in the jungle, and the disappearing shadow of the god did not leave any trace at the original place.

Countless grey clouds floated in my mind, and memories were like sharp chains, pulling at my chest and causing slight pain.

Walking on the time and space plane at the top of the tree branch, Zhongli's amber eyes were as calm as a deep well, and his breathing became a howling gale in the sky, blowing away every thick black cloud.

The full moon hung high overhead, casting a chilling, cold white light across the sea of ​​trees. The deadly forest, bathed in the watery moonlight, felt eerily peaceful.

Suddenly, in the darkness at the distant horizon, Zhongli sensed some strange movements.

Zhongli silently spread the "Wings of Fighting Qi" behind him, releasing the lock on the space under his body. Zhongli's feet were no longer as steadily standing on the void as before.

After all, his current apparent strength is that of a Seven-Star Fighting King, so when he acts, he naturally has to act the full way.

Zhongli is quite knowledgeable in this regard.

However, the strange energy only maintained a certain distance and did not directly confront Zhongli.

After all, Zhongli had never seen a true Dou Wang strongman, and he didn't know what level of speed a Dou Wang strongman should reach. Considering that he might be noticed, Zhongli gave up the previous space flash and instead floated slowly on the branch tops of the sea of ​​trees.

And the unknown dark group followed Zhongli slowly.

In his previous attempt, Zhongli had already silently controlled the elemental power of wind. The howling wind that had parted the clouds and revealed the bright moon thousands of miles above the sky was Zhongli's masterpiece, yet he hadn't noticed any change in his actions. It was as if Zhongli had simply raised his hand and gently touched the clouds, and the mist had obediently dispersed.

At that time, he was like a real mountain, standing in the void, motionless.

The gentle wind can caress the three thousand black hairs and the icy cheeks.

The wind is so fierce that it can cut off thousands of miles of yellow sand in an instant.

Originally, Zhongli had seven ways to kill that man instantly, but now he was in the air, so he only had six.

"It's indeed possible to make a concentrated, swift blade fall from the sky. Now that I have mastered the wind element like an arm, I probably won't have the fire element leak out of control like I did when I formed the contract with the Xiao family."

"But if he really can remain unknown to the gods during his lifetime and unknown to the ghosts after his death, and if he won't be suspected in the end, then I can try to directly send down thunder from the sky to kill him. Even if his backers come to inspect his body, they will most likely conclude that he died from 'natural forces'."

Perhaps it can also be simply said: bad luck, killed by lightning.

"But if that were the case, wouldn't the living suspect that this person had an immoral private life or was a person of extremely poor character and low quality?"

"The dead are greater, the dead are greater. According to Liyue's laws, stripping someone's underwear after death should be considered a crime of insulting a corpse, right?"

"Let's just forget it. After all, he was just following behind and didn't do anything. After all, when it comes to 'evil', we judge by deeds rather than by heart. And when it comes to the heart, no one is perfect."

"For example, the person following Zhongli might be fine for a powerful adult like Zhongli, but if the person following him was a young and beautiful woman, then this behavior could already be considered a 'trace'."

This is probably the effect of fully mastering the power of the God of Wind. Zhongli's thinking has become more active, even a little eccentric, and he is always thinking about random things.

"It seems that it will take some time to eliminate this subtle and unintentional influence."

After some of Wendy's random thoughts, Zhongli didn't bother to pay attention to him and just regarded it as a small episode during his leisure trip.

Zhongli slowly floated out of the Ghost-Suppressing Forest and did not return until he reached Qingshan Town.

The person following behind him probably would not have thought that Zhongli had just come up with five ways of death in his mind, including one way of death followed by social death.

…It was already dawn when we flew back to Wutan City.

He sensed that the person behind him was no longer there. Then, with a thought, Zhongli appeared in his room.

Not long after, Xiao Yan knocked on the door gently with excitement.

"Master, Master, are you awake?" Xiao Yan's voice was very soft, just like the whispers of children in the classroom.

"Well, come in, the door is not locked."

Zhongli took a sip of the freshly brewed tea. The emerald green tea in the fine white porcelain teacup was crystal clear, very different from the turbid tea soup nowadays. A few tiny tea leaves were floating in the tea, which was very delicate and pleasant.

"Last night, my father asked me to take the two masters to the Xiao family's market for a stroll. My father has a strange way of sleeping, often sleeping all day, so naturally I was the one to take on this important task."

Zhongli held the white jade teacup, his expression relaxed as he smiled and said, "Okay, let's go."

……

Entering from the market gate, there were two guards from the Xiao family at the door. They obviously knew Xiao Yan as well. They were stunned to see them coming, and then bowed slightly.

Nodding slightly, Xiao Yan led Zhongli straight in.

It was naturally not appropriate for Yao Chen to reveal himself casually, so on the road to the market, Xiao Yan was accompanied by only Zhongli.

However, although he cannot show up, Yao Chen can communicate with Zhongli and Xiao Yan through soul transmission.

This behavior is somewhat similar to the divine communication on the continent of Teyvat, that is, encrypted conversations between gods.

Under Yao Chen's guidance, Xiao Yan continued to select some high-quality herbs in the medicine shop.

Xiao Yan was concentrating all his attention. After all, he was refining a potion for rapid cultivation, so he naturally did not dare to be careless in the slightest.

Seeing this, Zhongli did not disturb them too much, but instead admired some new and interesting things in this fighting world that he had never seen before.

After six thousand years, a lot of things appeared that even the Rock King had never seen before. This could really make Zhong Li feel relieved for a while.

"Boss, this, this, this, and this."

"That, that, and that."

"Boss, I want all these magic cores."

The shop owner knew Xiao Yan, after all, this was the Xiao family's territory.

As everyone knows, the head of the Xiao family has three sons. The eldest and second sons have gone out to explore the world, and the youngest son, Xiao Yan, is the one selecting medicinal herbs.

As ordinary people, there is no need to inquire about the affairs of the cultivation world. They care more about business.

After all, Xiao Yan could be said to be the crown prince of the Xiao family, inspecting his own kingdom.

Therefore, the owner of this store has always left a very good impression on Xiao Yan, which is why Xiao Yan subconsciously walked directly into this store.

"It seems all my efforts have paid off! This friend of Young Master Xiao Yan is truly a benefactor to me. Apart from anything else, just that Rank-3 Lightning Magic Core that's been sitting in the bottom of my closet for five years is enough to cover my family's expenses for three years!"

However, the shop owner was packing the goods with a happy face.

"By the way, Xiao Yan, do you have any money with you?"
