Chapter 267 The Bandits Attack!

Within the Contract Illusion Realm.

Lin Xuan felt as if he had entered a separate space.

It was floating in the air on a small mountain range that stretched for more than a hundred miles. Above the mountain range was a line of large golden floating characters: Little Demon-Slaying Mountain.

Looking down.

He could even see an abandoned mine shaft nestled among the mountains.

The boundary of this environment is the small area within a radius of two hundred miles, which is the private property of the Lü family, with this small Demon-Slaying Mountain as the center.

The Lü family had only been able to gain a foothold in Barbarian Ghost City because of this mine.

However, after years of continuous mining, this small soul stone mine was exhausted. At the same time, the Lü family also offended the two major families of Barbarian Ghost City and were jointly suppressed.

Lü Qing's biological father was forced to his death.

Only Lü Qing was left behind.

Later, the Ghost Clan breached the border between humans and ghosts, and summoned Ghost Clan cultivators from all over the world to enter human territory and kill enemies, with extremely generous rewards.

Lu Qing also planned to go all out, break through to the Nascent Soul Realm, and then participate in the officer selection within the Domain Prefecture. If he could obtain a position in the Domain Prefecture's army, the people of Barbarian Ghost City would definitely not dare to touch him.

Lin Xuan glanced at it.

This territory is far too small.

Subsequently.

With a thought, Lin Xuan withdrew from the contract illusion.

night.

The bright moon sets over the river.

A silver disc is reflected on the shimmering river surface.

From the jungle on the other side of the river, faint growls of wild beasts could be heard.

Everything on the dock was clearly visible under the glow of the spirit lamp.

"Wow!"

A silver fish nearly three zhang long suddenly leaped up from a few steps away from the dock, creating a large wave.

The sight of the demons carrying goods was already commonplace.

Let the giant flying fish leap and bound.

This giant fish-like beast is the guardian beast of the northern dock of Barbarian Ghost City. It is a third-rank beast and protects the wooden dock from being destroyed by other aquatic beasts.

"Dang Dang!"

There was a knock on the door twice.

Lin Xuan, who was sitting cross-legged in the room, slowly opened his eyes.

His consciousness swept away.

Then they knew that Qin Lan, dressed in a purple gauze dress, was outside the house.

As Lin Xuan raised his hand, the door opened by itself.

The scene that came into view was extremely lively.

The semi-transparent purple gauze dress perfectly accentuated her fair and slender legs, while the slightly tight dress also showcased her graceful figure. Her attire was much more daring than usual.

"Heh, I'm not one of them, you think you can refuse me!"

Qin Lan was very satisfied with her outfit. She believed that if she showed it off in Barbarian Ghost City, all the young people in the city would turn into hungry wolves!

A gentle smile appeared on Qin Lan's lips.

There was a hint of shyness in her eyes, as if she found it difficult to speak.

"His expression, his movements, his attention to detail—his acting is absolutely perfect!"

Lin Xuan sighed.

Although Lin Xuan knew she wanted to extract some information about the contract from him, he didn't expect her to act so quickly.

"That's true. This is a medium-sized soul stone mine. There isn't a single spirit stone mine of medium size or larger in the entire Barbarian Ghost City. If we can get our hands on it, Qin Lan's status in the Qin family will definitely increase significantly. The key is that this represents a massive amount of cultivation resources!"

Lin Xuan thought to himself.

"Hey, there's a beast show in Ghost City tonight, why don't we go together..."

"Miss Qin, I am not feeling well, so I will not be going!"

Before Qin Lan could finish speaking, Lin Xuan suddenly raised his hand and closed the door!

"boom--"

Seeing the closed door, Qin Lan's smile vanished abruptly.

"Dare to refuse me!"

Qin Lan's eyes were filled with anger. She took a few deep breaths to calm herself down.

As the number one prodigy of Barbarian Ghost City, Qin Lan was also incredibly beautiful and fair-skinned. Countless young men from various families would pursue her. This was the first time he had ever humbled himself to invite Lü Qing, and he had even changed into a dress that made him feel awkward.

"For the sake of the contract! Cut off the contract!"

"Tolerate!"

Having calmed down, Qin Lan knew that there was no chance tonight, so she turned around and left through the door in front of Lin Xuan's room.

"He said he wasn't feeling well. Could it be that he suffered some kind of aftereffect from fighting the humans on the front lines?"

"Even after I took such the initiative, he remained unmoved. His indifference was completely different from his usual attitude towards her!"

"Sigh~"

As she thought about it, Qin Lan gasped, as if she had thought of something that would be very unfavorable to her.

Perhaps he has some kind of problem in that area.

As a Golden Core cultivator, even if that thing explodes, I can use healing pills and consume some spiritual energy to make it grow back!

It shouldn’t be!

We must subdue it before the merchant ships return to Barbarian City!

Otherwise, if this kid finds out that there's a medium-sized soul stone mine beneath his abandoned mine and wants to get it, things will get complicated.

Moreover, the Barbarian City is home to a bunch of ruthless lords who devour people without spitting out the bones.

Their Qin family is just one of many.

"Lü Qing, I won't give up!"

A resolute look appeared in Qin Lan's clear, beautiful eyes; everything was for the sake of the contract.

After that, Qin Lan went to Elder Zhao's room.

After Qin Lan left.

Lin Xuan, however, remained seated cross-legged, seemingly unconcerned.

He set up a seventh-grade restriction array around himself.

He took out several sixth-grade spiritual herbs and swallowed them in one gulp.

"Great Devouring Technique!"

Under the influence of the supernatural power, the spiritual medicine he swallowed transformed into streams of warm currents that flowed into Lin Xuan's limbs and bones.

"Kakaka!"

Then, the python dragon cell particles in Lin Xuan's body began to undergo a frenzied transformation. In just half an hour, these few sixth-grade spiritual herbs caused more than 60,000 python dragon cell particles to awaken.

This brought the total number of metamorphosed python-dragon cell particles in his body to 270,000!

Afterwards, Lin Xuan continued to take out several spiritual herbs from his storage ring and continue to consume them. With the help of the Great Devouring Technique, Lin Xuan's limbs and bones were like a bottomless pit, frantically devouring everything.

A day and a night later.

Lin Xuan slowly opened his eyes.

He exhaled a breath of stale air.

The total number of python-dragon cell particles in his body has now reached 790,000.

Give her another half day.

He broke through to the fifth level of the Creation Dragon Technique!

But he was getting a little impatient.

Qin Lan, standing outside the door, had knocked for the twenty-ninth time.

It seems they won't leave unless the door is opened this time.

Lin Xuan removed the array barrier and stored it in his storage space.

The door opens.

Before Lin Xuan could say anything...

Qin Lan grabbed his hand and dragged him out.

They stepped onto the deck of the giant ship.

"Miss Qin, you..."

As Qin Lan's soft, boneless, fair hand gripped his hand tightly, a hint of helplessness appeared on Lin Xuan's face.

"This girl is really going all out!"

A sense of helplessness arose in Lin Xuan's heart, and he said.

At this moment, Qin Lan was all smiles on the surface, but in her heart she had cursed Lin Xuan a thousand times over. She had been knocking on the door all day, but no one would open it.

She, a peerless beauty, had taken the initiative to please him, yet she was locked out. It was an utter disgrace. So when Lin Xuan opened the door, she grabbed him and pulled him away. She couldn't handle him on her own, but there was still Elder Zhao Xiruo.

After the two got onto the deck.

Lin Xuan's soul power surged in his hand, and like a swimming fish, he broke free from Qin Lan's jade hand.

And at this time.

The day had come for the giant ship to set sail. The anchor was pulled up, and the mooring lines tied to the dock were retrieved.

Then, the entire ship slowly drifted towards the outside of the dock.

After sailing several hundred meters from the dock, the array on the ship suddenly activated, and the entire giant ship slowly rose into the air, gradually leaving the river surface, flying into the sky, passing through the jungle, drawing a beautiful arc in the night sky, and entering the clouds.

Drifting on the sea of ​​clouds.

Once the giant ship had stabilized, many passengers went up to the deck to gaze at the beautiful sea of ​​clouds below.

At this time.

Qin Lan realized that her hand had been empty.

Before she could ask anything.

On the wooden ladder to the side.

A soft footstep sounded.

Immediately afterwards, a faint fragrance wafted into my nose on the breeze.

"This must be Lü Qing from the Lü family. He is indeed a promising young man!"

Zhao Xiruo, dressed in a white dress, descended the wooden stairs, a faint allure appearing in her beautiful eyes, exuding the aura of a mature woman.

"kindness!"

Lin Xuan simply nodded in acknowledgment.

His gaze, however, was fixed on the sea of ​​clouds to the east of the giant ship.

But then he looked away. A thousand miles away in that direction, there seemed to be two Nascent Soul Realm ghost cultivators riding two ferocious beasts, charging straight toward their location. If this continued, they would catch up in less than an hour.

"Huh? That's it?"

"Just one compliment and he's already so pleased!"

Zhao Xiruo was taken aback; this was unconventional!

She believed that she was just as beautiful as Qin Lan in her youth, and even more charming, yet this young man ignored her.

At this moment, Zhao Xiruo seemed to empathize with Qin Lan's helplessness.

"Perhaps I'll have to use some other methods!"

Then, Zhao Xiruo walked up to Lin Xuan, a seductive glint in her eyes, and said, "Young Master Lü!"

Lin Xuan met his gaze.

The two stared at each other blankly for a moment.

Charm is ineffective!

Seeing Lin Xuan's clear eyes, Zhao Xiruo's eyes flashed with surprise, and she added a touch of allure.

She used this trick to outwit many male cultivators of the same level.

However, it is ineffective against a Golden Core cultivator.

No matter how much she tried to seduce him, Lin Xuan remained unmoved. He simply sat down on a wooden chair to the side and began drinking a pot of spirit wine.

Zhao Xiruo's lips twitched a few times.

She gave up!

Lü Qing from the Lü family is a bit strange; her willpower is terrifyingly strong, and her charm has absolutely no effect on her.

More than half an hour later.

Lin Xuan then got up and walked into the passageway to the side, returning to his room.

For no other reason than that two Nascent Soul Realm cultivators who had been heading their way were about to arrive. They were coming with great force and definitely had no good intentions. Perhaps it was related to the egg of a fourth-grade ferocious beast on their ship!

"Why did you go back?"

Zhao Xiruo looked at Lin Xuan walking back, and then her expression changed drastically.

Then, Zhao Xiruo suddenly stood up and made several complicated hand seals with her hands.

"boom!!"

The entire ship trembled slightly, and then a semi-transparent defensive shield enveloped the giant ship.

A low-grade third-rank protective shield couldn't withstand those two Nascent Soul Realm guys.

It’s not easy to deal with!

"An enemy attack is imminent! All cultivators below the Golden Core realm must enter the cabins and are not permitted to leave!!"

Zhao Xiruo finished speaking.

Almost all of the hundreds of people on the deck ran into the cabins, their faces filled with panic.

In the end, only Qin Lan and four middle-aged men dressed in black robes remained.

These four people were members of a merchant guild that hunted ferocious beasts in Ghost City. Three days ago, they said they were going to Tianjun Ridge and wanted to ride on their merchant ship. Zhao Xiruo thought that since they were at the Golden Core stage, they could help defend against any bandits who wanted to hijack the cargo ship.

"However, Lü Qing got back just in time!"

Zhao Xiruo looked at the dark tunnel with a somewhat solemn expression.

Not long after Lin Xuan left, two fierce auras of Nascent Soul Realm cultivators appeared within her spiritual sense range, rushing towards them at an extremely fast speed, heading straight towards them.

"Could it be that Lü Qing discovered these two guys before she did?"

"That's impossible. How could a Golden Core cultivator's spiritual sense have a wider range than his?"

Zhao Xiruo was somewhat confused.

But as those two malevolent auras hurtled towards her, she focused her attention on the two men, deciding to deal with these two scoundrels first—
