Chapter 638: Enmity (two chapters in one)
The huge waterspout had an astonishing destructive power. It wreaked havoc and made the already messy square even more dilapidated.
"Roar...???"
When all the dust settled, the leader of the White-Scale Spiny Beast launched his mental perception and looked for traces of Chen Zhiyuan, but found nothing.
Although the destructive power of the waterspout is astonishing, it is absolutely impossible to kill Chen Zhiyuan, who has the third-level initial cultivation level, with one blow.
But now that there is no trace of Chen Zhiyuan, there is only one possibility.
Chen Zhiyuan, who had just been swallowed up by the waterspout, successfully evacuated using some means.
"Roar..."
The hateful enemy was nowhere to be seen. The leader of the white-scaled spiny beast standing in the pouring rain could only let out a series of roars in great depression to vent his heart. of anger.
In the distance, on the deserted street.
The rain falling from the sky fell on the ground, forming small puddles.
One of the ordinary puddles suddenly appeared with a pale golden light, and then a figure jumped out of the puddle.
“Crack.”
When Chen Zhiyuan appeared, a spiritual weapon he wore around his neck immediately shattered.
Chen Zhiyuan, who used his spiritual weapon to perform water escape and escaped from the battlefield, turned around and glanced at the location where he had fought fiercely with the white-scaled bone-chilling beast leader before, and then quickly ran towards the city gate.
.........
"Tap, step, step..."
At the gate of the ancient city, bursts of rapid footsteps sounded on the street.
If you look down from the sky to the ground, you can see many treasure hunters running fast on the streets leading to the city gate.
The already bad weather suddenly took a turn for the worse and it rained heavily. This caused all the treasure hunters who were looking for treasures in the city to stop their treasure hunting and all return to the camps outside the city.
"Huh..."
"Miss, we are finally out." Zhao Xiaoya said breathlessly.
At the gate of the ancient city, a group of people escaped from the men sent by the leader of the White-scaled Bone Beast to chase and kill them. On the way out of the city, they encountered no other setbacks and all evacuated from the ancient city safely. .
Wu Qingfang calmed down her rapid breathing and nodded to Zhao Xiaoya.
Then, she looked at Lin Li beside her.
The sky will get dark soon, and the rain is showing signs of getting heavier. It's time for me to go back... Lin Li looked up at the sky, staring at the dark clouds flashing with lightning frequently, and thought in his heart.
"Lin Li, our camp is over there, let's go over there!" Wu Qingfang invited.
She knew that Lin Li came to this ruin space alone by chance and had no other companions.
Next, she hopes that Lin Li can act with them and take care of each other.
Lin Li, who had already decided to go home, naturally couldn't agree when he heard Wu Qingfang's invitation to sit in her camp. He smiled and shook his head.
"It's getting late. It's time for me to go back to my settled residence and rest. I'll be a guest in your camp and wait until I have the opportunity to go again."
"It's not safe for you to be alone, so you'd better come. Let’s camp!” Wu Qingfang said.
"I appreciate your kindness, but I'm used to being a loner." Lin Li declined politely.
"Uh..." Wu Qingfang, who was rejected one after another, was speechless and didn't know how to persuade Lin Li.
In the past, when she invited others, they would readily agree. This was the first time that she had encountered such a situation where Lin Li refused one after another.
"Okay, Wu Qingfang, let's say goodbye and see you again when we are destined." Lin Li said with a smile, then turned and left.
"..." Wu Qingfang looked at Lin Li who was drifting away and quickly chased after him.
"Lin Li."
Lin Li was about to find a deserted place to enter the mysterious island. He heard Wu Qingfang calling him from behind and stopped immediately.
He turned around and asked Wu Qingfang who came to him in confusion.
"What's the matter?"
"Here."
Wu Qingfang raised her hand and took out a small jade pendant from her arms and handed it to Lin Li.
"This is?"
"This is my jade pendant. Sometimes I am not in the camp, and the people left behind do not know you. If you show this jade pendant, they will know that you are my friend. ”
Lin Li raised his hand and took the small, delicate jade pendant with Wu Qingfang's name engraved on the surface.
Although Lin Li didn't understand jade, he knew through touch that this jade pendant was of excellent quality.
"Thank you! I'm leaving." After Lin Li accepted the jade pendant presented by Wu Qingfang, he continued to turn around and leave without saying much.
"..." Wu Qingfang stood there, looking at Lin Li who was drifting away, silent and did not speak.
Small footsteps came from behind, and the personal maid Zhao Xiaoya came to her young lady. She glanced at Lin Li who was walking away, turned her head to look at Wu Qingfang, and said.
"Miss, the rain is getting heavier and heavier. Let's go back to the camp quickly!"
"Yes." Wu Qingfang nodded. At this time, Lin Li's figure had disappeared into the distance. She looked back and looked at the distance. With his eyes, he led the group back towards the camp.
"Tap, step, step..."
The rain is getting heavier and heavier, and the gate of the ancient city is becoming more and more lively. The sound of rapid footsteps sounds one after another, and more and more people are looking for treasures. They ran out of the ancient city pool and returned to their respective camps.
A young man in gorgeous clothes was cursing as he ran out of the city, "This damn weather is really annoying."
"Master, this heavy rain should last for a long time. After returning to the camp, we can take advantage of the rain to improve the map we recorded." The gray-haired old man expressed his inner thoughts.
"You can just decide on this kind of thing." Zhang Mingqiu said without caring.
After a while, the group left the ancient city and walked towards their own camp.
On their way back to the camp, they found people in some other camps near their own camp, looking at them and whispering, as if they were joking.
"Did these guys take the wrong medicine?" Zhang Mingqiu heard some laughter and cursed in confusion.
When everyone returned to their camp, they suddenly saw that a tent in the camp was broken, and a hole appeared in the tent very conspicuously.
When we go out in the morning, this tent is very good, everyone knows this.
When I came back now, there was a big hole in the tent, which was obviously caused by man-made damage.
"What is going on with this tent?" Zhang Mingqiu said with an unhappy expression.
As soon as he finished speaking, the five servants who were staying at the camp hurriedly ran out of the tent.
"Master."
"Who injured you?" Zhang Mingqiu saw that the five servants staying at the camp were all injured, and the injuries were serious. His face suddenly became very ugly. Zhang Mingqiu actually didn't care if the servant who stayed behind at the camp was injured.
What he really cares about is that these people are slaves of their Zhang family. Now that they are injured, this is a slap in the face of their Zhang family.
The injured servants, wrapped in gauze and with bruises and swollen noses and faces, looked at each other when they heard Zhang Mingqiu ask who injured them. For a moment, they didn't know how to answer this question.
"I'm asking you a question! Are you all mute?" Zhang Mingqiu, who didn't get an answer, became even more angry and asked in a cold tone.
"Young Master..." The rough-looking man with beard was very angry when he saw Zhang Mingqiu. He was immediately frightened and trembled, and then tremblingly told in detail what happened before.
"..." Zhang Mingqiu became even more angry after hearing the story. He insulted the servants who stayed at the camp.
"I was beaten up and didn't say anything, but in the end I didn't even know where the other person came from. You are really useless! What use do you have?"
"Master, spare your life! "The servants who stayed behind at the camp quickly knelt on the ground and begged Zhang Mingqiu for mercy.
"Bang, bang, bang..." An angry Zhang Mingqiu stepped forward and kicked the servants who were kneeling on the ground to beg for mercy, kicking them all away.
"Wow..."
After the injured servant was kicked away, he hit the ground hard, and his clothes were soaked in mud and water. After being kicked, the injuries on his body were even worse. It got serious, and he immediately spit out mouthfuls of blood.
After Zhang Mingqiu kicked away all these servants who had lost his face, he was not relieved.
Just when he was about to rush forward and continue to teach these servants who had embarrassed the Zhang family.
The gray-haired old man who didn't say much spoke at the side and said, "Master, wait a minute."
"Huh?" Zhang Mingqiu heard the gray-haired old man speak, and then stopped moving and turned his head to look at him.
The gray-haired old man's status in the Wu family is not low. Zhang Mingqiu does not need to listen to what others say, but he cannot ignore the gray-haired old man's words.
"Master, we are employing people now, let's make up for it by leaving them alive!" said the gray-haired old man.
"..." The angry Zhang Mingqiu thought for a while, and it was indeed true.
If these few servants who stayed at the camp were killed, he would then take a few of the guards to stay and guard the camp, thus reducing the number of combatants who would enter the ancient city together.
"Spare your life! Master, we know we were wrong, give us a chance to make up for our mistakes!"
Although his body was seriously injured, in order to survive, the rough-looking bearded man The others, regardless of the pain on their bodies, kowtowed to Zhang Mingqiu one after another.
"Huh..."
The angry Zhang Mingqiu took a long breath, and then with a cold face, he said to the rough-looking bearded man and others who kept kowtowing.
"I will spare your lives for the time being. If something goes wrong again, you can take matters into your own hands!"
"Thank you, Master. Thank you, Master." After being forgiven, the rough-looking bearded man and others said gratefully.
"Also, please go and find out for me the origin of the guy who destroyed our tent and injured you?"
Zhang Mingqiu was thinking at this moment, he must Find the guy who made the Zhang family lose face and settle the score.
“Yes.” The rough-looking bearded man and others responded in unison.
They hated Lin Li for injuring them, and now that Zhang Mingqiu spoke, they were naturally very happy.
Decided to wait until his injuries healed better and then go around to find out where Lin Li was.
"Boom..."
Thunder exploded in the cloudy sky, and bright silver-white lightning flashed frequently in the clouds.
Occasionally, a bolt of lightning falls from the sky and hits a leafy tree, turning it into a blazing torch.
As the sky became darker and darker and the rain became heavier, all the people who were searching for treasures in the ancient city pool evacuated the ancient city pool and returned to their respective camps.
Wu Qingfang stood at the door of the tent and looked towards the gate of the ancient city.
"Miss, why hasn't Uncle Chen come back yet? Something happened, right?" Zhao Xiaoya said worriedly.
“With Uncle Chen’s strength, the alien beast still has some shortcomings if he wants to keep him.” Wu Qingfang said with determination.
Although she said so, she was still worried about Chen Zhiyuan's personal safety just like Zhao Xiaoya.
"Miss, look at that..." Zhao Xiaoya suddenly saw a figure running quickly towards their camp in the hazy rain curtain, then raised her finger and pointed at the figure and shouted.
"It's Uncle Chen." Wu Qingfang looked intently, and as the figure in the rain continued to get closer, she recognized the figure.
"Uncle Chen is back!!!" Zhao Xiaoya cheered excitedly when she saw Chen Zhiyuan returned safely.
"Hey... the weather is so bad now, I don't know what Lin Li's so-called residence is like." Wu Qingfang couldn't help but think of Lin Li who insisted on leaving, and thought to herself.

Blue Star.
The sun in the sky was about to disappear. After a busy day, the sun was about to get off work and put on a gorgeous dress.
The bright red sunset dyed most of the blue sky with a bright color, and the white clouds floating in the sky were also dyed with a layer of gold.
Tired birds return to the forest. Birds that have been out all day will return to the city in small groups from inaccessible suburbs or wild areas.
It was the rush hour after get off work, the streets were crowded with people, and there was an endless stream of passing vehicles.
The chirping of birds sounded in the community, and the roar of passing vehicles on the streets outside the community was also transmitted into the community.
In the quiet living room of Room 601 of Building 3, a figure wearing black training clothes appeared out of thin air.
“I’m back.”
“It’s still comfortable at home!”
After leaving the ruins space and returning home, Lin Li glanced at the sunset outside the window and thought to himself .
Just as he was about to sit down on the sofa, he suddenly stopped.
Looking down at his clothes, it rained heavily in the ruins space, and most of his clothes were soaked by the rain.
Sitting on the sofa, wet clothes will definitely get the sofa wet.
Lin Li walked to the bedroom. After a while, Lin Li walked out of the bedroom holding pajamas and entered the bathroom.
The sound of rushing water soon started, and the sound of tuneless singing came from the bathroom from time to time.
Next door, the little white cat and the little black cat were guests at Zhou Tongtong's home. They were lying on the floor very obediently, blowing on the air conditioner and watching cartoons.
Suddenly, the little white cat's eyes flashed with light golden light, and its two furry little ears twitched slightly.
"Meow...Zhou Tongtong." The little white cat got up from the ground, looked at Zhou Tongtong who was concentrating on watching cartoons, and shouted.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Tongtong turned her attention away from the TV and looked at the little white cat.
"Meow...Lin Li is back." The little white cat said to Zhou Tongtong.
