Fox Demon: Reincarnation of the Ninth Life

'Boom, boom, boom'

There was a knock on the door.

"Brother, are you in there? I'm coming in."

Jiang Li had no idea about etiquette. Knocking on the door was just a habit, so he walked straight into Hai Bodong's room.

The rooms in the border cities of the Western Region all look the same. The brown soil covers the entire space, with a few tables and chairs and a bed that is neither too big nor too small.

There are no windows here, only wooden boards. When ventilation is needed, just remove the wooden boards. The rest of the time, it is naturally blocked.

And because of the desert in the Western Regions, a room covered like this is very hot during the day and relatively cool at night.

"Senior brother?"

Jiang Li poked her head out and looked around. There was nothing interesting in the room, but the person living here made her even more curious.

"What's the matter?"

Hai Bodong suddenly appeared in the originally empty room.

Maybe because Jiang Li came too suddenly, he was only wearing white pants, with his upper body naked, broad shoulders, narrow waist, and bulging muscles, which suddenly attracted people's attention.

But what Jiang Li saw were the densely packed wounds, both deep and shallow.

"Senior brother..."

She covered her mouth in surprise, her eyes full of shock, and inexplicably felt a little distressed.

"How? Shocked?"

Seeing Jiang Li's figure, Hai Bodong's eyes softened a little, but his expression was still cold, giving people an attitude that strangers should stay away.

"Hmm...sort of."

She naturally walked into Hai Bodong's room and closed the door gently.

"Are these the price for completing the mission?"

Jiang Li slowly walked to Hai Bodong's bed. The latter stared at the girl in front of him and felt something unusual.

“Mostly.”

He responded coldly.

Jiang Li looked at Hai Bodong in front of him, his angular face looked like ice crystals.

His knife-like muscles trembled slightly up and down with his steady breathing.

"Does it hurt?"

She then asked, stretching out her right hand, which had unknowingly reached towards Hai Bodong's body.

"……fine"

The latter was slightly stunned. Was this considered caring? He didn't know, because no one had ever said such words to him, nor had he ever felt such a feeling.

His heart felt warm; those simple yet sincere words were like a ray of warm sunshine, slowly melting the thick layer of ice that was deeply rooted in his heart.

It was like sitting around a blazing fire with his fellow apprentices after completing a mission. That feeling of comfort and pleasure gradually spread, enveloping his entire body and mind.

Perhaps only at such times did he let down his guard. Slightly absent-minded, the past scenes kept appearing in his mind. Those forgotten memories seemed to be reawakened at this moment, with an inexplicable feeling of emotion surging in his heart.

Although some of these scars were left when struggling on the brink of life and death, the majority of them were...

While rescuing fellow apprentices who were in danger, he was injured.

In fact, he had rarely been in life-and-death crises a long time ago, because no one could be his opponent!

"It hurts..."

Hai Bodong closed his eyes and thought about what Jiang Li said.

"It's been a long time... since I felt this way..."

'Poke~'

"!!!"

The touch of that warm palm gently touched his body, and it quickly spread throughout Hai Bodong's body like an electric current.

His muscles tensed up unconsciously, and every nerve seemed to be pulled violently. The collision of cold and warmth melted his frozen heart a little.

This sudden feeling made him a little overwhelmed, and his originally relaxed body instantly tensed up.

"Jiang! Li!"

Hai Bodong was shocked and squeezed out her name from between his teeth.

"Hey...Ahhh, sorry! I wasn't paying attention...Brother...I'm sorry!"

Only then did Jiang Li realize how bold his actions were.

She was now half-kneeling on Hai Bodong's bed, her graceful figure and the whiteness of her chest looming in the distance. She could feel the temperature of both of them between her fingers, one hot and one cold, just like the space between the sky and the mountains.

Although they were staring at each other, their eyes met, they seemed as if they were tens of millions of miles apart.

"No problem..."

Hai Bodong turned his head, pushed Jiang Li away, stood up and put on his clothes.

"Is there a mission?"

he asked.

"Yes, the elders asked us to team up together temporarily."

Jiang Li replied.

"Together……"

Hai Bodong was a beat slower in his movements.

In order to prevent the puppets from rebelling, they would normally carry out the mission individually, but this was an unusual requirement that they would be working in groups of two.

Either the mission was too difficult, or...

They are the ones who are on guard against themselves!

Hai Bodong's eyes were filled with murderous intent. He glanced at Jiang Li and found that the latter was staring blankly at the place where he had just been lying.

"Not quite like..."

he muttered.

If Jiang Li was sent by the elders to monitor him or assassinate him.

Then he would definitely think that the elders were crazy and had lost their basic judgment.

Not to mention that there is actually a huge gap between them, it all depends on the character of the person in front of you...

It felt like an adult being stabbed with a pencil by a three-year-old.

"What's the mission?"

"The secret of the Dao League, the Spirit Stone from outer space!"

Jiang Li replied.

Upon hearing this, Hai Bodong frowned slightly.

The Taoist Alliance secrets are the absolute secret treasures left in the world by the third young master of Aolai Kingdom and are regarded as forbidden by the Taoist Alliance.

After the Li Muchen incident more than a hundred years ago, the Taoist Alliance has been guarding this secret even more strictly, and it can be said to be airtight.

Although the Taoist Alliance's current analysis of this secret is still limited to using it to screen the younger generation of strong men, it is unable to impact its position in the Taoist Alliance.

What's more, what made Hai Bodong even more puzzled was, what was the use of the elder for this thing?

The talent used to screen puppets?

impossible!

For them, after using up the puppets, they will discard them and then train the next batch.

. . . . . .

"I don't know what the elders want that thing for. It's just a broken stone."

"Don't think too much, just execute it."

In the blink of an eye, Hai Bodong and Jiang Li had already appeared outside Wangquan Villa.

"Oh... obviously, you care about it too, Senior Brother."

Jiang Li made a face and agreed.

"The organization has always acted in a low-key and swift manner. This time... it is indeed a little abrupt."

Hai Bodong thought.

After all, after completing the mission, they will clean up all traces to prevent being traced back to the Western Region.

But this time... how are they going to hide? Are they going to destroy the entire Wangquan Villa?

"I'll attract attention, and you go get the secret. It should be in the location intelligence."

Hai Bodong instructed.

Looking at the circular lake in front of him, it greatly enhanced his fighting ability.

I have heard that in addition to the powerful sword of Heaven and Earth, the four guardian swords in the Wangquan Villa are also equally powerful.

Today, although the title of the world's number one sword is no longer the Royal Sword, the reputation of the Sword of Heaven and Earth is still loud.

Let him try it out!

"and many more!"

Just as Hai Bodong was about to leave, two small arms appeared in front of him.

It’s Jiang Li.

"What's the matter?"

Seeing this, Hai Bodong frowned and was very angry, but he still gave her the chance to speak.

"Um... Senior Brother, please be careful."

Jiang Li scratched his cheek a little embarrassedly and gave instructions to Hai Bodong.

"...I understand. There's no need to do this again!"

Hai Bodong was startled by this sudden concern and spoke after a moment of silence.

This matter has nothing to do with the mission. If it were in the past, he would have definitely shouted angrily.

But this time, the other person's concern made him inexplicably recall what happened in the morning. It was like the feeling of punching cotton, and he rarely scolded.

Of course, it is not ruled out that he is "extremely disappointed" with Jiang Li, a gentle and somewhat indecisive guy who does not look like a killer at all. Maybe nothing she does will surprise him anymore.

Because the standards have been lowered to the lowest level and cannot be lowered any further.

"okay."

Jiang Li smiled and then quietly sneaked into Wangquan Villa from the other side.

As for how to get to that circular lake...

Hai Bodong was seen walking to the front of the lake, his magic power gushing out, causing the surrounding spiritual energy to begin to boil.

The temperature in an area dropped rapidly and spread, instantly covering the entire lake with a thick layer of ice.

"Who dares to trespass into Wangquan Villa?!"

A roar broke through the air. What Hai Bodong did was definitely a naked provocation!

Of course, this is also the effect Hai Bodong wants.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!

Four figures flew in from four directions of the villa, floating in the air, staring fiercely at the person in front of them who had trespassed and provoked Wangquan Villa.

With long fluttering hair, sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, he holds a long sword in his arms, his thumb is already on the sword handle, ready to go - Wind Sword!

With short hair and countless pocket swords floating around him, he looked down at the invaders below with contempt - Rain Swords!

His hair was gray and his body was sturdy and strong. He was obviously old enough to sleep in bed, but he held in his hands a sword as huge as a human figure - the Thunder Sword!

With his eyes closed and his hands behind his back, a few signature white strands floating in his black hair, he faced the invader with a smile - Dian Jian!

The four guardian swords of wind, rain, thunder and lightning are here!

"Breaking into Wangquan Villa without permission cannot be exempted from the intention of intrusion. What crime should you...be punished for?"

Feng Jian said condescendingly, his eyes fixed on Hai Bodong's every move.

If he had hostility, he would draw his sword and kill him in the next second!

Hai Bodong did not respond at all, and the atmosphere between the two sides became increasingly tense.

"Shh!"

The sound of the attack cut through the air, breaking the tense atmosphere.

I'm here to fight, why bother talking nonsense? !

"Attack! Behind you!"

The electric sword had the sharpest perception, and while dodging the attack, it gave a warning.

‘Clang! ’

‘Clang! ’

I saw countless black ice spikes attacking the four people from behind, so they dispersed instantly and drew their swords to resist!

"Just a commoner!"

Yu Jian turned around and dodged, and then he was furious. Countless pocket swords rushed towards Hai Bodong, but the next second...

"What about people?!"

There was no trace of him there. In an instant... the sky and the earth changed color. The jade-like sky was covered by a black curtain. An icy breath seemed to have stopped time.

That was Hai Bodong, he spread his wings and moved the moment he launched the attack!
