C30 Afraid?

All the way out of the restaurant, Feng Ling's delicate body was still trembling uncontrollably. She wanted to stifle her laughter, but she couldn't help herself.

This fellow dared to come to the restaurant to eat without any money?

At the same time, Feng Ling became more and more curious about Mo Li's identity.

He originally thought that Mo Li was a disciple who came from a big power to gain experience, but now it seemed that he was more like a martial arts fanatic who had roamed deep in the mountains and forests since young. His strength was formidable, but he was completely ignorant of the continent's rules and basic common sense.

Walking aimlessly along the bustling streets, Feng Ling slowly explained some of the most basic things about the continent to the men beside her. At the same time, she also introduced the general situation of Tian Chi Town.

In Feng Ling's narration, Mo Li understood the basic structure of the continent. It was all sects controlling the cities.

His current location should be at the border of the Tian Yuan Continent. The three factions controlling the Tian Chi Town were: the Cloud Pursuing Pavilion, Floating Cloud Mountain, and the Flowing Cloud Hall. These three forces belonged to the Shuiyun Sect, one of the seven major sects in the Northern Continent.

"In that case, this Heaven Lake Town should be considered the territory of the Water Cloud Sect?"

"That's right!" Feng Ling nodded her head, and added, "The Cloudwater Sect is very powerful, and they have countless cities under their control. As for the towns around the Heavenly Falling Forest, they are almost all controlled by the Cloud Pursuing Hall, Floating Cloud Mountain, and Flowing Cloud Hall. I only know that the forces controlled by the Cloud chasing Pavilion are the Falling Tiger Mercenaries, and the situation of the Floating Cloud Mountain Sect and the Flowing Cloud Hall isn't very clear …"

"Cloud Chasing Pavilion …" After hearing this name, Mo Li couldn't help but think of South Heaven's Moon. The sneer on his face disappeared.

Catching the cold glint in Mo Li's eyes, Feng Ling also thought of Nan Pingyue, as well as Ning Qianyu who was with Mo Li back then. Although he was curious, he didn't ask. Feng Ling knew that she wasn't really familiar with Mo Li to the point that they could talk about anything.

"Let's go and find a place to stay!" Looking at the gradually darkening sky, Mo Li decided to rest here for the night and continue his journey tomorrow.

Back then, Qiao Yuyan's grandfather had said that the most prosperous region of the continent was the Heavenly Tomb Plains, which was the southernmost area of the continent. That was Mo Li's destination.

After finding a normal inn to stay at for the time being, Mo Li recalled the disdainful gaze of the owner when Feng Ling paid just now, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch: "I can't go on like this …" I have to find a place to exchange some gold coins tomorrow … "

Previously, Uncle Yan had exchanged 30 gold coins for the Four Eyed Azure Python Monster Core and Snake Bile. Mo Li had casually tossed them over to Ning Qianyu.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Mo Li wasn't in a hurry to rest. Instead, he began to meditate and recover.

In order to save Ning Qianyu, Mo Li had expended all the energy in his body. His dried out meridians needed to be nurtured slowly. Even with the help of the Third Elder's pills, Mo Li didn't dare to let his guard down.

Little Snow Ball jumped down from Mo Li's shoulder and lazily landed on the windowsill after a few jumps. In the blink of an eye, the room quietened down. One could only hear Mo Li's slow exhale.

As night fell, the Heaven Lake Town gradually descended into silence. However, Mo Li's originally closed eyes suddenly opened. Like a ray of light piercing through the night sky, the corners of Mo Li's mouth lifted into an evil smile as his figure disappeared from the room in a flash.

Outside the inn where Mo Li was staying, a wretched looking young mercenary under an old tree looked at his companions and whispered, "Fifth brother, it looks like this kid has already gone to sleep. Should we find a place to rest?"

Another middle-aged man who looked more mature frowned, "No! Captain said to keep an eye on this kid, if anything happens to him, both of us will die! "

"He's just a gangster, what could possibly go wrong …" The young mercenary was indignant.

"Then why not …" Halfway through his words, he suddenly stopped. The middle-aged man looked at the elegant youth that walked out of the black clothed man with a face full of fear: "You … "Why are you …"

"How did we find you?" Mo Li shook his head and chuckled. He had already noticed them staring at him and Feng Ling when they were at the restaurant.

If they hadn't realized at this point that this young man in front of them was not simple, the two of them wouldn't have been qualified to be mercenaries that lick blood from the blade all year round.

"Puff …" A light sound rang out in the quiet night. A golden light flashed across Mo Li's fingertips, and the arrow in the young mercenary's hand fell to the ground.

"Don't think about reporting, just answer a few questions for me!" Squatting down and picking up the arrows, Mo Li's gaze did not land on the two of them. Instead, it gave them a huge pressure.

The battle qi was released! This was clearly a technique that only spirit realm practitioners could do!

"What do you want to know?" The older mercenary resisted the fear in his heart. The youth's strength caused his heart to palpitate, but at the same time he did not dare to make the slightest movement.

"Are you members of the Feral Tiger Mercenaries?"

The two of them looked at each other and slowly nodded.

Mo Li curled his lips and continued to ask, "Did Nan Po Yue let you guys come?"

The faces of the two mercenaries changed as a sliver of hesitation appeared in their eyes.

"Humph ~!" Mo Li's aura pressed down on the two of them without restraint. The two mercenaries could not help but retreat. When they looked up, their eyes were filled with fear.

"Yes …" "Before South Young Master returned to the sect, he specifically made our captain pay attention to a gangster. He looks somewhat similar to you, so when you entered the city, we discovered him. That's why the captain made us come over to keep an eye on you …"

Mo Li's mouth revealed a hint of playfulness, "Staring at me? Why didn't you just kill me? "

"The captain told us not to act rashly. Elder Venom Snake and the lord had disappeared not long ago. He was worried that someone was attacking our Feral Tiger Mercenaries from behind, so he told us to keep an eye on you for the time being. When there's a chance, we can ask the south for help …" The two mercenaries recounted the general story, but Mo Li could vaguely guess what they were talking about.

Old fox!

Mo Li couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Mo Li believed that the Feral Tiger Mercenaries would never think that the disappearance of Hu Jie and Venom Snake had anything to do with him. After all, he had never revealed his strength to anyone. The captain of the Feral Tiger Mercenaries definitely thought that there was an expert against the Feral Tiger Mercenaries behind them, which was why Venom Snake and Hu Jie were nowhere to be found. Without any assurance, he decided to let them go.

It had to be said that the captain of the Tiger Mercenaries was very good at scheming. However, he would never have thought that the expert in his eyes was actually Mo Li, a gangster who had no fighting power on the surface.

After figuring it out, Mo Li couldn't help but chuckle to himself in his heart. Since the other party wants to sing a song, shouldn't I cooperate with him no matter what? After all, he had the same goal as his opponent, and that was to lure the people from the Cloud Pursuing Pavilion out!

Mo Li had never believed himself to be a magnanimous person. Since South Poyun wanted to deal with him, then he had to be prepared for revenge.

After understanding the whole situation, the sneer on Mo Li's face became even more pronounced. He squinted his eyes and looked at the two people in front of him. When the latter felt that something was amiss, he stretched out his hands like lightning.

"Crack ~ ~ Crack ~!"

The necks of the two mercenaries tilted to the side, blood trickled from their mouths, dripping onto Mo Li's fair hands. In the dark night, they seemed cold and alluring.

"You... "What are you going to do …" Her voice was trembling, just like her heart.

"Afraid?" Mo Li didn't turn around. Instead, he took out a brocade handkerchief and wiped away the blood on his hand.

Gritting her teeth, Feng Ling stubbornly shook her head and said, "Since I'm following you, I'll accept everything you've done!"

His hands subconsciously paused and Mo Li shook his head with a chuckle. "Alright …" If you ever don't want to follow me anymore, then leave! "

After Mo Li finished speaking, he slowly crouched down and picked up the two corpses from the ground. His figure disappeared into the endless night, leaving Feng Ling, who was still with a stiff body, lost in thought.
