Chapter 77: Saint Astraea’s conversation, the special power of darkness
Mo Fan hurriedly came to the door and informed Cheng Xiao that there was news about Zhang Xiaohou from the ancient capital.
"Let me go with you." Cheng Xiao paused and said:
"But before that, I need to pick up something. We will set off to the ancient capital tomorrow."
When Mo Fan heard this, he looked grateful. He is indeed his good brother-in-law, no, he is a good big brother.
Immediately, Mo Fan also went back to prepare, planning to hit the road again tomorrow.
"Brother Cheng Xiao, what's going on? Why did brother Mo Fan leave in such a hurry just after he arrived?" Xinxia asked.
"There is something urgent that needs to be done. I will make a trip with Mo Fan tomorrow. It may take a few days." Cheng Xiao comforted softly:
"Don't worry, nothing will happen."
"Well, I believe in Brother Cheng Xiao!" Xinxia smiled sweetly.
…………………………
Cheng Xiao did not waste any time. After telling Xinxia and Mu Nujiao, he immediately contacted Leng Qing.
Leng Qing heard Cheng Xiao's request and joked:
"Why, it's not enough to have senior sister by your side, why are you also targeting senior sister's best friend?"
"Sister Leng Qing, it's really urgent." Cheng Xiao said solemnly.
"Tell me about it, senior sister will transfer you directly to Tang Yue."
"I want to borrow the totem black snake."
"."
Leng Qing contacted Tang Yue and Tang Zhong. After hearing this, the uncle and nephew did not agree immediately.
The totem black snake is of great importance, and whether it can be borrowed is not only decided by the Tang family.
After arriving in Songcheng, Cheng Xiao and Leng Qing went directly to West Lake to find Tang Yue and Tang Zhong.
"Your request has been agreed to by the superiors," Tang Zhong said.
"Thank you." Cheng Xiao nodded.
"There's nothing to thank you for. This is a favor I owe you." Tang Zhong said:
"What's more, the place you are going to this time is the ancient capital, where the undead are currently rioting. Maybe you can be of some help."
At this time, Tang Yue came over holding the totem bead of the totem black snake.
"Remember to bring the big guy back intact, otherwise my sister will be angry!" Tang Yue said quietly.
This does not guarantee that Cheng Xiao’s face will not turn red and his heart will not beat.
"Don't worry, Sister Tang Yue."
"Well, sister believes in you."
"."
…………………………
The next morning.
Cheng Xiao and Mo Fan agreed on a time and boarded the last flight to the ancient capital.
After getting off the plane, Cheng Xiao had no intention of using his parliamentary privileges.
The ancient capital is already very busy because of the undead cholera, so just do it secretly
Mo Fan directly contacted Fei Jiao, Zhang Xiaohou’s chief instructor, while Cheng Xiao went to the Hunter Alliance first.
"Tsk, tsk, I see that I am an outsider. Do you need any help?" came an unpleasant duck voice.
Cheng Xiao followed the source of the sound, lowered his head and locked onto the person who spoke.
"How can you tell that I'm from outside?" Cheng Xiao asked with a half-smile.
"Hehe, I have been active in the Hunter Alliance of the Ancient Capital for twenty years. You don't even need to look at the face to see which face is familiar and which one is new. You can tell just by looking at the back!"
The short man said with a proud face: "So, little brother, if you want to issue a commission, come to me."
"I'm going to Weiju Village in the Xianchi area." Cheng Xiao said.
"Ten million."
"Deal!"
"." Cheng Xiao agreed readily, making the short man stunned.
I have never seen such an outsider who issued a multi-million-level commission and then agreed to it.
After paying the money, the short man smiled happily:
"There are two more people here, brother, let's meet at the agreed place tomorrow!"
"No problem."
"."
…………………………
"Ten million?! Brother Cheng, have you been cheated?"
Mo Fan was dumbfounded when he heard the price.
Where can I find someone who only needs 10 million to lead the way? Isn’t this just bullying outsiders? !
"A evil abyss has appeared in the Xianchi area, and no one is willing to lead the way. It's not a loss if 10 million people can be hired." Cheng Xiao said.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Of course, his real purpose is not here.
If there are no mistakes in the timeline, an important person should appear in the short man's team.
The next day, Cheng Xiao took Mo Fan to the designated place to meet the short man.
Sure enough, it was exactly what Cheng Xiao thought.
The other team led by the short man was the team led by Saint Astraea of the Parthenon Temple.
She was very eye-catching in the team. Her face was covered by a black silk veil, only her beautiful eyes were revealed.
In the middle of winter, she was wearing a silk robe embroidered with the colorful sparrow totem, and her bright red soft shawl hung straight down, swaying as she moved.
Of course, the most eye-catching thing is the graceful waist and round buttocks. The graceful figure alone can arouse the desire to conquer the opposite sex.
The saint who came from a foreign country seemed to like Kyushu's national culture very much.
Coming from afar, I also specially matched myself with a chivalrous and tender style
Astraea's beautiful eyes have been falling on Cheng Xiao since she appeared.
There seemed to be something about Cheng Xiao that was attracting her, but she couldn't see through it.
"This friend, can you tell me your name?" Astraea asked softly.
As soon as these words came out, the two followers behind Astraea stared at Cheng Xiao with frowns.
Mo Fan was also shocked and looked puzzled:
"Brother Cheng's charm is so terrifying. We just met him for the first time, and a beautiful woman came up to say hello."
The short man couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. It was useless to talk to Astraea before.
Now Astraea saw Cheng Xiao at the first sight and went straight to A.
"Cheng Xiao." Cheng Xiao said his name, and then reminded:
"Before asking others their names, tell them your identity first, so as not to appear rude."
Astraea was stunned and said with a smile:
"Sorry, I don't know much about your culture. My name is Ye Mengwei. You can just call me Mengwei."
Cheng Xiao nodded slightly.
At this time, the short man coughed twice and said quickly;
"Ahem, now that everyone is here and we know each other, let's set off. Time during the day is very precious in the ancient capital."
"."
…………………………
As the short man said, in the ancient capital, daytime is very precious.
Especially in winter when the nights are long and the days are short, not to mention that it is still in the special stage of undead riots
The land outside the ancient capital of An was desolate and lifeless, like a dead place shrouded in death.
The group of people led by the short man walked quickly on the land.
Cheng Xiao turned his head slightly and glanced at Astraea.
This woman always stared at herself from time to time along the way. Every time Astraea looked over, Cheng Xiao could catch it.
With the breakthrough of the three lines of cultivation, coupled with the power of the ‘power of the ruler’.
Cheng Xiao's spiritual realm has also broken through to the fifth realm, and his perception is stronger than that of the fourth realm.
Astraea also noticed Cheng Xiao’s gaze and explained with a smile:
"Don't get me wrong, I also practice black magic, I'm just curious about your dark power."
