Pei Huan was taken aback, unsure of Bai Qian's meaning.
She had overheard Bai Qian and Lai Shui's conversation, but because she was preoccupied with how to cling to Bai Qian's leg and beg for mercy when she came to him, she thought this man was simply trying to annoy her.
After a moment of silence, she finally answered.
"In Liangdu, I suppose." The "official" naturally refers to the imperial court.
But the scope of the imperial court is too broad.
If we narrow it down a bit, it should refer to the emperor of the Great Liang Dynasty. "Guanjia" can refer to the imperial court or the emperor, since the imperial court belongs to the emperor.
"That's quite far," Bai Qian said, and then stopped asking questions.
Bai Qian turned around and fished the meat out of the oil pot.
I wonder what fox meat tastes like. Maybe it should have been coated in flour before being thrown in.
"Master, what's next?" Pei Huan walked beside Bai Qian, out of the main hall, and cautiously glanced back at the hellish scene behind them.
"Do you have any clothes over there?" Bai Qian glanced at her clothes, which were now completely stained blood red.
It's impossible to wash it clean, and I can't go back wearing this outfit.
Pei Huan nodded quickly.
"I'm staying at a restaurant in Baifeng City. If you need anything, you can come with me to my family's chamber of commerce's temporary residence, and I'll have someone prepare a change of clothes for you." This kind of small thing is definitely no problem.
"Thank you for your trouble." Bai Qian was very polite.
Her eyes were slightly unfocused; she was pondering a question.
That fox demon is definitely dead, but the lifespan it contributed after death doesn't quite match the power it displayed.
Sixty years is not a long lifespan for a demon, at least not in comparison to its recent performance.
Those fluttering white cloths, if I hadn't used [Lianyun Leg - Deceptive], I probably wouldn't have been able to get close to them.
Using [Cloud Willow] can certainly tear the white cloth, but simply tearing the white cloth is not very meaningful. That fox demon can conjure up many white cloths, and it can recreate as many as you tear.
Come to think of it, they probably ran away?
Those foxes are on the mountains outside the city... I can go there sometime.
"Do you have any martial arts manuals over there?" Bai Qian suddenly asked again. This was the third question. However, Pei Huan was quite happy for Bai Qian to ask a few more questions. Satisfying this master was the most important thing for Pei Huan to do right now.
Pei Huan didn't know what Bai Qian meant, but she still answered honestly.
"I don't have that thing on me."
But fearing that Bai Qian would be disappointed, she quickly added, "However, my family's guild definitely has several masters they worship. They are currently in Bai Feng City. If you are interested, I will help you find them after you arrive at the base."
Upon hearing this, Bai Qian gave her a serious look and blinked her bright eyes.
"I'll go with you."
Volume 1: 29. What is meridian circulation?
The old man with a face full of wrinkles came to his senses.
Then came the excruciating pain.
My head felt like it was going to explode.
No, it just exploded.
It raised its head with a cold expression, looking at the stone wall in front of it.
The upper body's state was forcibly terminated, naturally because Hu Mian's skin was punctured.
The method of summoning gods can only be used when one is in human form. Once one's human form is broken, no matter which god one summons, it will be sent back.
Hu Mian's physical form was destroyed, but she could survive by abandoning her tail.
But in the eyes of the elderly, there is no difference.
After all, that person wouldn't let Hu Mian's original body survive.
To be honest, even now, it doesn't know how it lost at the last moment.
She appeared beside him so easily, which was completely beyond the old man's comprehension.
The old man was constantly on guard against Bai Qian and spent a lot of his demonic power watching her to prevent her from making any moves.
The result is self-evident.
It was like a supernatural power, with that elusive feeling, yet there was no trace of demonic energy emanating from it.
It's somewhat similar to those bizarre methods, but those bizarre beings lack basic rationality and aren't living beings, so they're completely different from that girl.
It shook its head and stopped thinking about it.
Being forcefully pushed back is quite damaging to the elderly person; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they suffered serious injuries.
However, despite being seriously injured, the old man felt no reverence for Bai Qian, only hatred.
Putting aside the fact that their own descendants died at Bai Qian's hands, the loss of face they suffered at Bai Qian's hands was unbearable.
As I get older, nothing else really bothers me, but what I just can't accept is losing face.
Holding a cane, it slowly walked out of the secret room.
"Huan'er, go and contact those wolf cubs in the south. Tell them that Grandma needs to speak with them." It said in a sinister tone after leaving the secret room.
“They’ve always had their eyes on that city, so I’ll give them a hand this time.”
----
Bai Qian took a bite of the fox meat sliced into pieces.
He frowned slightly.
So cloying.
Perhaps it was cooked in the oil for too long, because the oil seeped into the meat.
One bite and it's all oil.
It also had a strange gamey smell; in short, it just didn't taste good.
Pei Huan walked into the room, looked at Bai Qian sitting at the table, and then glanced at the sliced meat on the table.
"Does this outfit fit?" she asked, sitting down next to Bai Qian.
After bringing Bai Qian to the camp, Pei Huan arranged for people to help Bai Qian wash up and change her clothes.
Her intention was to help Bai Qian resolve the Lai family's issues.
So many people have died; we can't just let this go so easily.
When she and Bai Qian left the Lai residence, they didn't encounter a single person, but that doesn't mean the Lai residence was deserted.
Everyone in the hall was involved with demons, so their deaths were simply a matter of life and death.
But the imperial court is still standing, although in many places the government is practically defunct, but it still needs to put on a show of compliance where necessary.
It's fortunate that this little ancestor cleaned up so thoroughly that very few people knew what had happened in the main hall.
Just shut them up. The dead were naturally killed by the fox demon. The fox demon went berserk and slaughtered everyone in the hall before fleeing into Baifeng City.
Pei Huan has already taken care of what happened next for Bai Qian, and given the current state of the government, they won't investigate further.
After all, they are probably in dire straits themselves right now. Pei Huan has heard some news that there are rebels everywhere in the entire Liang Dynasty.
The Lotus Sect in the east, the Green Righteous Army in the south...
Bai Qian picked up her chopsticks and took another piece, but after realizing that it really didn't taste good, she put the chopsticks down.
He pushed the plate toward Pei Huan.
"Thank you." Pei Huan said with a strange expression as he looked at Bai Qian, who pushed the meat from the plate to him.
But I didn't dare to eat it.
She had personally witnessed how Bai Qian forced the fox demon into the boiling oil, and she truly dared not eat it.
"Is there half left?" Bai Qian asked.
"Hmm, it seems like they've only cut it in half over in the kitchen. Should I have someone bring the other half up?"
"Keep it, I'll take it back later." Let's take it back for Bai Yao to eat.
“Hmm.” Pei Huan glanced at the black-haired girl sitting opposite him.
Her long, wet black hair hung down, and glistening water droplets dripped from her delicate and beautiful cheeks. The clothes Pei Huan had prepared for Bai Qian were also white, the same style as the clothes Bai Qian had worn before, since they were all made by tailors in the city.
"Thank you for your help with what happened at the Lai family's place just now," Pei Huan said.
Bai Qian glanced at her upon hearing this.
"It's the same even if you're not here."
They came here to cause trouble for the Lai family anyway, so it doesn't matter whether Pei Huan is there or not.
You have to keep your word. If you've already said you'd kill them all, it wouldn't be right to leave empty-handed.
"The three-meter-long hammer you mentioned on the way... our chamber of commerce doesn't have one yet. We might have to find a blacksmith to make one." Pei Huan didn't dwell on this matter for too long.
You can also express your gratitude through actions.
"But other weapons are available, such as steel clubs or longswords," Pei Huan added.
"Hmm..." Bai Qian rested her cheek on her hand and thought for a while.
In reality, she didn't have a great need for weapons.
So far, we haven't encountered any enemies who require weapons.
Whether they are demons or humans, they are all made of flesh and blood. You can still pop them like you pop a balloon with a stick.
"Give me a sword," he said after a moment's thought.
"Okay, I'll have someone bring it over later." Pei Huan nodded.
Pei Huan would naturally not refuse Bai Qian's request.
Regardless of anything else, judging from Bai Qian's current demonstrated strength, it is more than enough for me to make investments.
Judging by age alone, Bai Qian is probably not much older than her younger sister, yet she can kill a demon in its transformation stage so easily.
Pei Huan didn't know what this meant, but she was certain that building a good relationship with this person now would definitely not be a loss.
"And Master Zhao, I've already told him, he'll be here soon," Pei Huan continued.
“His ancestors were lay disciples of Landa Monastery, and they passed down half of the ‘Compassionate Hand’ manual. If you are interested, you can ask him about it,” Pei Huan said.
"I've heard that this complete 'Compassionate Hand' is considered one of the best among martial arts techniques for opening the meridians."
Upon hearing this, Bai Qian finally became interested.
"Unblocking meridians?"
Pei Huan was taken aback when he heard Bai Qian's question.
What do you mean?
Looking into those dark eyes filled with doubt, Pei Huan met her gaze with equal confusion.
"What is that?" Bai Qian asked.
Unblocking meridians... what is that?
When put together, Pei Huan didn't understand. He understood each word individually and when they were put together, but when Bai Qian said it, Pei Huan truly didn't understand.
It means that you killed the transformed monster with a single blow and dispersed the old monster that was attached to it...
Do you not know what "Tongmai" means?
Volume 1: 30. Compassionate Hands
Pei Huan looked at Bai Qian opposite him, feeling slightly helpless.
As for the main reason for their helplessness, it was naturally because of Bai Qian's words.
I guess I'm just trying to make myself happy.
