Quick Wear Dream Qiqi
Chapter 263 A Passerby in the Cultivation World 23
Gu Yuyu pointed to an elegant-looking inn on the corner and said, "Sister Qiqi, that inn seems pretty good."
Meng Qiqi nodded, and everyone walked towards the inn.
Entering the inn, the lobby was filled with people from all walks of life.
The shopkeeper saw them and greeted them warmly: "Fellow monks, would you like to stop by or stay overnight?"
Meng Qiqi asked for six guest rooms, but the shopkeeper looked embarrassed and said, "Miss, there are only three rooms left in our shop."
Meng Qiqi thought for a moment and decided to squeeze into one room.
After checking in, the waiter took them upstairs. The room was not big but clean and tidy.
Leng Shuang looked around the room, while Meng Qiqi asked the waiter to prepare hot water and food.
When the food is served, they are all local specialties.
Meng Qiqi took a bite and found it tasted pretty good.
After dinner, Meng Qiqi and Leng Shuang decided to take turns keeping watch to prevent any further accidents.
Gu Yuyu was extremely tired from all the previous troubles and fell asleep quickly.
Leng Shuang stayed for the first half of the night, and Meng Qiqi stayed for the second half.
When Leng Shuang was on guard duty, she sat by the window, always paying attention to the movements around her.
When it was Meng Qiqi's turn to keep watch, she checked whether the doors and windows were closed. Then she sat on the edge of the bed, holding the Taoyu Sword, waiting for the dawn to come. In this way, she spent a night safely in the Wuji City Inn.
The next morning, everyone packed up and went downstairs to pay the bill and prepare to leave.
Meng Qiqi walked to the counter and was about to pay the spirit stones to the shopkeeper when suddenly a group of people in black rushed into the inn.
They all exuded a cold aura. The leader glanced around and fixed his gaze on Meng Qiqi.
"Who are you?" Meng Qiqi asked vigilantly.
The man in black did not answer and attacked directly.
Meng Qiqi, Leng Shuang and Gu Yuyu responded hastily.
Upon seeing this, the innkeeper quickly formed seals with his hands, and a golden light shot out from his hands, blocking the attack of the man in black.
"You are causing trouble in my shop and you don't take me seriously." The shopkeeper said in a deep voice.
The leader of the men in black snorted coldly: "A mere Jindan stage dares to stop us. No one can save them today."
After that, more men in black joined the battle.
Meng Qiqi knew that she couldn't implicate the shopkeeper, so she shouted, "Shopkeeper, this is our business, please don't interfere."
The shopkeeper shook his head and said, "You can stay in my shop. I will take good care of you."
Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, a melodious flute sound came from afar.
When the men in black heard the sound of the flute, their faces changed, and they stopped and retreated quickly.
Meng Qiqi breathed a sigh of relief and was very grateful to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper waved his hand and said, "You guys should leave quickly. Wuji City is becoming increasingly unsafe."
After Meng Qiqi and the others thanked the shopkeeper, they hurriedly left Wu Ji City.
On the other side, the man in black ran to a hidden valley.
There is a huge cave in the valley, and in the cave sits a man with his face covered in a black robe.
The man in black knelt on one knee and reported, "My Lord, the woman was protected by the young master's entourage, so we were unable to capture her this time."
The black-robed man raised his hand slightly, his voice cold, "It's alright. I had expected it wouldn't go this smoothly. There's a special aura about that woman, and it's closely related to what we're planning."
The man in black asked again: "Then what should we do next?"
The black-robed figure was silent for a moment, then slowly stood up and paced back and forth. "Send someone to closely monitor her every move. Wherever she goes, she's bound to trigger some key clues. When the time is right, we'll capture her. Also, eliminate her helpers if necessary."
The man in black took the order and left.
After leaving Wu Ji City, Meng Qiqi and her group walked along an ancient path.
Occasionally, a few low-level monsters jumped out from the roadside, but they were easily dealt with by them.
As they walked, Meng Qiqi always felt that there were eyes watching them from behind.
She quietly told Leng Shuang, Gu Yuyu and others, and they all pretended nothing had happened, but in fact they were secretly on high alert, preparing to deal with any danger that might arise at any time.
Meng Qiqi and others continued to set off for the next city according to the map.
In less than a day, a magnificent city appeared ahead - the city of Moses.
There were many people coming in and out of the city gate, and it looked very lively.
Meng Qiqi thought that maybe she could get rid of the stalker here.
After entering the city, Meng Qiqi and others found a remote but seemingly safe courtyard to rent, intending to settle down first.
Leng Shuang and Gu Yuyu set up a simple protective formation, while the others were busy cleaning the room.
Meng Qiqi stood in the middle of the yard, closed her eyes and felt the flow of spiritual energy in the city, and did not notice anything unusual.
However, when night fell and Meng Qiqi was about to rest, she noticed a looming shadow outside the window.
She quietly woke up Leng Shuang and Gu Yuyu, and the three of them slowly approached the window with weapons in hand.
I suddenly opened the window, but saw only a stray cat running away.
After the false alarm, they lay down again, but Meng Qiqi's uneasiness did not go away.
Although, there is only spiritual energy and no evil cultivators in the city of Moses, it is indeed much safer than Wu Ji City.
The next day, Meng Qiqi went out alone to find out whether Moses City was really safe.
Walking alone in the city, I found that the people here lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the street vendors were selling all kinds of strange and exotic items.
Suddenly, she saw an old woman fall to the ground, while the people around her ignored her.
Meng Qiqi hurried forward to help the old woman up. The old woman looked up at her, and there was a strange flash in her eyes.
The old woman whispered, "Girl, you shouldn't have come here. This city hides a big secret."
Meng Qiqi was shocked, and before she could ask any further questions, the old woman disappeared.
Meng Qiqi sensed something was wrong and hurried back to the courtyard.
But as soon as they arrived near the courtyard, they found that the protective formation they had originally set up had been destroyed.
She rushed into the yard and saw Leng Shuang and Gu Yuyu being held hostage by a group of men in black.
The leader of the men in black smiled and said, "You are finally back."
Meng Qiqi glared at him and clenched the Taoyu Sword in her hand.
Meng Qiqi took a deep breath and suppressed the anger and panic in her heart.
She scanned the surroundings, trying to find a way to break through.
Suddenly, she remembered the jade pendant Bai Xuan gave her, and her heart moved.
"Let them go, or don't blame me for being rude." Meng Qiqi shouted loudly.
The leader of the men in black laughed disdainfully: "Just you?"
Meng Qiqi said nothing more and secretly crushed the jade pendant.
In an instant, a dazzling white light flashed, and Bai Xuan's figure appeared in the yard.
The leader of the men in black was horrified.
Bai Xuan looked at the men in black coldly: "You are so brave."
After he finished speaking, he waved his sleeves and a powerful spiritual power burst out. The man in black was blown away before he could resist, and the people who held Leng Shuang and Gu Yuyu hostage were forced to let go.
Meng Qiqi ran to Leng Shuang and Gu Yuyu to check if they were injured.
Bai Xuan turned to Meng Qiqi and said, "It's not advisable to stay here for long. Come with me."
Meng Qiqi nodded, and followed Bai Xuan out of the courtyard with Leng Shuang and Gu Yuyu.
Behind them, the man in black looked at their departing backs, his eyes full of unwillingness, but helplessness.
The man in black went back to report to the man in black robe again.
The atmosphere in the cave was depressing. The man in black robe listened to the report of the man in black and sneered.
"Humph, Bai Xuan is ruining my plans again. But it doesn't matter, that woman can't escape."
The man in black robe said grimly.
The man in black asked cautiously, "Master, what should we do next? Bai Xuan is very powerful."
The black-robed man pondered for a moment and said, "Go contact the people in the Blood Demon Palace and tell them that if they help me get that woman, I will hand over the treasure to them."
The man in black took the order and retreated.
On the other side, Bai Xuan brought Meng Qiqi and others to a residence in a mysterious valley.
This place looks ordinary, but in fact it is full of layers of restrictions.
Bai Xuan said to Meng Qiqi, "You stay here for a while and hide. I will find out why those people have been targeting you."
Meng Qiqi was full of doubts, but now she could only obey the arrangements.
At night, Meng Qiqi tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. She had a vague feeling that the men in black today were the same group as the men in black in Wu Ji City before.
So, the man in black was targeting her?
And he seemed like a chess piece coveted by various forces.
Just at this moment, there was an unusual movement in the spirit beast bag on Meng Qiqi's waist. The awakened little spirit bird flapped its wings and flew out of the spirit beast bag.
As soon as the little spirit bird came out, it sensed the spiritual and evil spirits in the air. It chirped anxiously and circled above Meng Qiqi's head.
Meng Qiqi was surprised by the little bird's reaction and asked softly, "Little bird, did you discover something?"
