314: C314 Black Cloud Mountain

C314 Black Cloud Mountain

"Miss, that Zhang Boyuan is not a good person. You must think twice."

After Zhang Boyuan left, a middle-aged man quietly took a step forward and whispered to Xue Xiaochai.

"Thank you for the reminder." Xue Xiaochai said coldly.

"Miss..." This person still wanted to dissuade her, but when he saw Xue Xiaochai's cold gaze, he could only mutter a few words and shook his head as he walked away.

"Shen Yih."

Xue Xiaochai looked at Shen Yih and said with a self-deprecating smile, "What I looked like just now. "Are you looking down on me?"

"No."

Shen Yih shook his head lightly.

"Haha, you don't have to deny it. I understand. You looked down on me just now." Xue Xiaochai said with a hoarse voice, "When I was in Hundred Thousand Demonic Beast Mountain, I always felt that I was the pride of the heavens. My father was the Sect Master of Muyun Sect, and I have always been the pride of Muyun Sect."

"Even when I came to the dynasty, I was still highly regarded by the royal family. I feel that I am the true genius!"

"But now, every step I take is like walking on thin ice. "I'm not like you, who can get enough status just by relying on your own strength. "As for me, as long as I can't prove my value, I will most likely fall from the clouds, even more miserable than ordinary people. Do you understand?"

"Shen Yih, no matter whether you can look up to me or not, I will use my own way to prove my worth!"

After saying this, Xue Xiaochai walked straight away.

Shen Yih stared at Xue Xiaochai's back and smiled indifferently. He did not look down on anyone at all.

The current Xue Xiaochai was very similar to the person he met in Spirit River Sect, Fairy Ling Xia.

However, Xue Xiaochai was different from Fairy Ling Xia. Fairy Ling Xia came from a humble background, so she wanted to take shortcuts step by step to reach a high and mighty position. Fairy Ling Xia gradually destroyed herself in the vanity she created.

Xue Xiaochai's birth was more noble, but they were all the same in their bones. They were all obsessed with the lofty vanity and would not really walk up to the top in a down-to-earth manner.

...

The next day.

The sky lit up at dawn, at the east entrance of Jun Tian City.

At this time, many small teams had gathered there. The members of these small teams were almost all gathered together, making it seem like there was a huge commotion.

This time, almost all the members of the top 20 teams in Jun Tian City had arrived. They had all come for the Dinghai Pearl.

This Dinghai Pearl... Regardless of whether it was the value of the Dinghai Pearl itself, the Dinghai Blue Lotus, or the Syndicate Spirit Liquid, they were all rare and precious treasures that were priceless. Especially this Dinghai Pearl, as long as it was slightly tempered, it would be a high-grade Magic Tool.

"Vice Captain Zhang, are you sure you invited a beautiful lady today to join our Qingyun Team?" In the seat of the Qingyun Team, there was a shifty-eyed guy who moved closer to Zhang Boyuan and asked.

"Of course, would I lie to you? Hehe, when you see that girl later, behave well. Don't scare that beauty away." Zhang Boyuan said.

"Hehe, of course. But Lieutenant Zhang, don't forget to let your brothers have a sip of the soup after you finish eating the meat." The man said vulgarly.

"No problem. At that time, as long as we can get rid of that guy next to that beauty... " Isn't it just us brothers who said what? " Zhang Boyuan said with a loud laugh.

"When you are doing something, you must be clean. Don't affect the mission this time. Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite." Just as these people gathered together in a wretched manner, they saw a middle-aged man with a scar on the left side of his face walking over.

"Captain, we understand. I promise I won't delay the mission." Zhang Boyuan said hastily.

This man was the captain of Qingyun Team. His name was Lieh Zhan.

Lieh Zhan was also the strongest existence in the Qingyun Team. He had already reached the Genuine Entering Stage Sixth Layer, and his name was renowned throughout the Jun Tian City.

He had contributed a lot to the Qingyun Team's current status.

"The task this time was given by the Second Young Master of the Jun Family, Jun Moyan. If an accident were to happen, not only would I die, all of you wouldn't be able to escape. " All of you just need to know what's going on. " After saying this, Lieh Zhan walked to a place not far away and quietly sat on the ground.

"Vice-Captain Zhang, is it them?"

At this time, someone pointed at Xue Xiaochai who was walking over not far away and Shen Yih.

"Yes."

Zhang Boyuan's eyes lit up. He coughed a few times to calm himself down.

With a fake smile on his face, he slowly walked over and said with a smile, "Haha, Young Master Shen and Miss Xue, you two came?"

"Zhang First Brother, we did not waste everyone's time, did we?" Xue Xiaochai smiled sweetly.

Under Xue Xiaochai's smile, Zhang Boyuan was in a trance. He only felt his mind go blank.

"No, no." Very quickly, Zhang Boyuan came back to his senses and hurriedly shook his head. "We haven't set off yet."

"Are these all members of your team?" Xue Xiaochai asked curiously.

"Let me introduce them to you. That is our leader, Lieh Zhan. They are all members of Qingyun Team. This is Shu Zhen, and this is..." Zhang Boyuan hastily introduced them.

There were only eight of them in the Qingyun Team.

All of them had reached the Genuine Entering Stage, but most of them were at the First Layer of Genuine Entering Stage or around the second stage.

Shen Yih looked around. It seemed like they had come this time. There was far more than just one expedition team in Qingyun Team. In his sight, there were at least 30 teams, and the Qingyun Team could only be considered ordinary among them. With the power of the Qingyun Team, Xue Xiaochai alone could take care of it.

At this moment, Shen Yih's gaze shifted to the team at the front. The leader of the small team was wearing a terrifying mask.

However, based on the figure of the other party, Shen Yih could tell that she was obviously a woman. This person had already reached the Eighth Layer of Genuine Entering Stage, and was the strongest amongst them.

"Our mission this time is to go to the Despair Valley and help us find the location of the Dinghai Pearl. If we're lucky, we'll be able to find the legendary Dinghai Pearl." Zhang Boyuan said attentively from the side.

"Really?"

Xue Xiaochai's eyes flashed with a hint of joy.

The reason why Xue Xiaochai wanted to join these small teams was to make it easier for her to find the Dinghai Pearl.

This Despair Valley was huge. If they were to search alone, it would take them a long time to find it.

With these exploration teams, these exploration teams would definitely have connections with each other. It would be very easy for them to lock onto the location of the Dinghai Pearl.

"Miss Xue, but I will say these ugly words first." At this time, Zhang Boyuan said seriously, "There are many Despair Valleys in the Despair Valley. The two of you must not act on your own. Otherwise, if there is any danger, we will be in trouble if we cannot rescue them in time."

"We will." Xue Xiaochai nodded and said.

"You guys better follow me when the time comes. As long as this mission is completed, there will be ten Spirit Stones as the reward." Zhang Boyuan said.

"There are still Spirit Stones?" Xue Xiaochai said happily.

However, Zhang Boyuan was afraid that he did not know about Xue Xiaochai and Shen Yih. Their target wasn't the Spirit Stone, but the Dinghai Pearl.

At the eastern entrance of the city, they continued to wait for about an hour. A person who looked like a butler rushed over and said a few words to the captains of a few squads.

"Brothers, let's go!"1

"Long Sword Squad, follow me."

"Black Tiger Squad, come this way."

The captains of these squads called out to their members as they exited the city gates and rushed towards Black Cloud Mountain.

"Let's go too." Lieh Zhan walked over and said with a cold expression.

"You two, don't run around." Zhang Boyuan reminded them again before he left.

...

Black Cloud Mountain was a huge mountain in the outer perimeter of Hundred Thousand Demonic Beast Mountain. Although it wasn't full of dangers, there were definitely a lot of hidden Demon Beasts.

However, due to their large number of people, these Demon Beasts in the outer perimeter avoided them as soon as they saw them.

Even those Peak of Genuine Entering Stage Demon Beasts wouldn't face these small groups head on under such circumstances.

However, slowly, these small groups had already separated from each other by a very long distance.

This group of people kept advancing in the forest. Each of them had a vigilant look in their eyes as they kept looking at places that they normally wouldn't notice.

Although these people's character didn't seem to be good, they were very experienced. They had already mingled in Black Cloud Mountain for a long time and had a very good understanding of each other.

"Miss Xue, this place is still half a day away from Mount of Despair. If our luck is good enough, we might be able to pick a lot of herbs along the way. These herbs can all be exchanged for Spirit Stones." Zhang Boyuan had been standing guard beside Xue Xiaochai.

Along the way, Xue Xiaochai had already gotten a lot of information from him.

This Zhang Boyuan naturally had nothing to hide. Only Lieh Zhan quietly looked at them a few times.

However, Shen Yih and Xue Xiaochai had been disguising their strength as Peak of Sight Stage. Although Lieh Zhan had some doubts in his heart, he didn't notice anything wrong.

"Lieutenant Zhang, when are we going to attack?" Taking advantage of a gap, the shifty-eyed man quietly walked over. He lowered his voice and said impatiently, "When we arrive at Despair Valley, there are a lot of people from other teams there. I'm afraid we won't have a chance."

"Wait for my instructions later." Zhang Boyuan nodded slightly.

"Not good!"

Right at this moment, an exclamation sounded.

Zhang Boyuan and this person were stunned for a moment, then they looked over in that direction at the same time.

They saw a white tiger with wings rushing over from the forest.

The white tiger pounced on a member of Qingyun Team. The member quickly waved his Spirit Artifact to block the attack.

The reaction of this member wasn't slow, but it still sent the white tiger flying outside. It was seriously injured and couldn't get up.

"Double Winged Tiger?"

Zhang Boyuan's expression changed dramatically, "How could there be a Genuine Entering Stage Fifth Layer Double Winged Tiger here?"
