Chapter 936: Chapter 582: The Center of Information_2

But now, Xu Yuan felt that this burly man might not even be a living person.

Looking at his faintly visible silhouette in the mist, Xu Yuan continued to stride lightly.

When he was about seven or eight zhang away from the main hall, the peasant at the door came forward to greet him.

Approaching, the muscular man greeted Xu Yuan with a bow, and said respectfully,

"Young Master, are you looking for the lady?"

"....."

Observing the etiquette performed by the other party, Xu Yuan’s eyebrows involuntarily raised, processing the information calmly and nodding slightly, instructing:

"Yes, call her out to see me."

Upon hearing this, a look of surprise flashed in the burly man’s eyes, seemingly puzzled by the Young Master’s rudeness, but he still spoke in a low voice,

"Young Master, please forgive me, the lady had already instructed me earlier that she is unwell today and it is inconvenient..."

"I said, let her come to see me."

"..." said the burly man.

Silence for a moment, the burly man hesitatingly spoke:

"Young Master, is this perhaps a bit..."

"Hum—"

Before the burly man could finish his sentence, a strange black fog suddenly engulfed the two of them.

At that moment,

Xu Yuan fully activated the Willow Ghost Blade, releasing the overwhelming power of the Saint Level Yin Source:

"I said, let her come to see me!"

The unrestrained voice echoed throughout the entire estate.

The peasants who were working looked up, attracted by the voice, and saw in the still dissipating fog a gigantic figure hanging with numerous corpses!

One smile settles all hatred, which is based on the offender’s good attitude of admitting wrongdoing.

Xu Yuan took this opportunity to act.

Whether the appearance of the weird Ghost Infant was a test from Lady Wan or not, Xu Yuan had to prevent this from happening again, and to fully intimidate the other party, he unleashed the intimidating aura of the original form of the Thousand-Thorn Ghost Willow regardless of the cost.

He simply couldn’t afford to be tested.

Thus, he had to craft an image of himself as someone who was offended, suggesting that if you don’t pay a price, I will fight you to the end.

Besides this, Xu Yuan had other thoughts.

During this intimidation, he decided to test the burly man in front of him.

This was a spontaneous decision, solely based on the etiquette the burly man had shown him earlier.

The etiquette of Dayan is quite complicated, involving distinctions of court and local, rank, gender, politics, and military.

So,

How could an ordinary peasant know how to perform military salutes of Dayan?

In the corridor of the main hall shrouded in black mist,

Looking around at the darkness, the strong man’s eyes showed no panic, his hand subconsciously reaching for his waist, but found it empty.

Watching his actions up close, Xu Yuan understood immediately.

Unaffected by the pressure of the Saint Level Yin Ghost, it seemed that this man was not a body of a Yin Ghost.

Considering the soul-controlling technique of Lady Wan, and the differences in how Lady Wan and the burly man referred to him, this man was not controlled in the mother-child form by Lady Wan.

As this thought passed, a few black cherry blossoms quietly fell, and the vigilant eyes of the burly man gradually became empty.

Xu Yuan’s voice was gentle yet swift:

"Name."

"Li... Minshang."

"Military position."

"Wolf... Wolf Raid Trusted Aide Commander."

"....."

The Wolf Raid Cavalry, the elite of the elite within the Zhenxi Army.

Realizing something, Xu Yuan’s breathing became slightly rapid:

"As a Wolf Raid Trusted Aide, why be here?"

The empty eyes of the burly man revealed a hint of confusion, filled with chaos:

"War.. died in battle... then.. then.. don’t.. don’t know.."

"Next question."

Xu Yuan didn’t delay, and quickly asked:

"Why did you die?"

"For protecting.. wife.. wife.... Commandery Princess.. covering the rear...."

The voice of the burly man became increasingly intermittent: "No, it was for...the lady."

Sinking feeling in his heart, Xu Yuan continued emotionlessly:

"How did you die?"

"Who.. killed me... insect... wolf...."

In halting speech, the burly man suddenly covered his head uncontrollably, his voice filled with fear and pain:

"No, that’s wrong... I.. I.. still have to.. protect.. the Commandery Princess.. No, I’m already dead.. Ah.. Ah... Ahhhh!!!"

The burly man seemed to recall something, his face contorted in pain as he raised his head and pleaded desperately to Xu Yuan:

"Save... save the Commandery Princess... please... I beg you..."

"Pfft."

Looking at the other’s rough features twisting in agony, Xu Yuan gently thrust his sword through his neck.

From the blade, a mass of Will-spirit not of this mortal realm revealed his current identity.

Soul Singer.

Will-spirit must have a vessel to persist in this world.

A product of Evil Cultivation Techniques, akin to the spiritual essence found in statues.

Only, the latter is voluntary, whereas the former is forcibly infused.

After his death, General Li Min became a reserve food source for Lady Wan...

Expressionless, Xu Yuan stepped over the life-fading body and walked somberly towards the hall, leaving only a gentle whisper in the ear of the dying man:

"Of course."

...

...

...

[Changtian, I, Jun Wu, have said before, I am not inferior to Qingyan]

As he entered the dim main hall a moment, Jun Wu’s ugly handwriting inexplicably flashed through Xu Yuan’s mind.

Not inferior to Qingyan?

Damn, recalling that now only makes it seem more ridiculous...

While that person commands the Elite Troops in the Northern Frontier, slaughtering left and right, you’re stuck in the Western Desert, your fate unknown!

Walking to an ancient Eight Immortals Table, Xu Yuan pulled out a chair and sat down, knocking his leg casually on the table, his eyes cold as he exhaled turbid breath, forcibly suppressing the negative emotions inside him.

Xu Yuan truly realized the might of the Big Ice Lump’s methods this time.

Though it went somewhat awry, he intended to have her help find the hiding place of the Dragon Transformation Essence, only to be led into the midst of this tumultuous situation in the Western Desert.

Without Big Ice Lump, Xu Yuan himself probably wouldn’t have made it here.

He wouldn’t have seen Su Jinxuan, nor understood that Tianyan’s whereabouts are unknown, let alone learned the inside story from Jun Wu’s side.

Although it was a bit dangerous, overall, this should be considered good fortune.

Waiting times are always long, but Lady Wan appeared in the side hall half an hour after Xu Yuan sat down.

And this time,

perhaps thanks to the empowerment from the Saint Level Yin Source of the Thousand-Thorn Ghost Willow, Xu Yuan successfully saw the true face of this Lady Wan in those shadows.

A very attractive young widow, her charm still present.

Eyebrows like inked arcs, eyes like limpid pools, and beneath her delicate nose, a pair of cherry lips.

Changed into new clothes, a dark green robe hugged her ripe curves.

With an indifferent look, eyes focused on her, Xu Yuan didn’t bother to take his legs off the Eight Immortals Table, his voice clear and straightforward:

"Lady Wan, there shouldn’t be any impropriety in my visit to your place, should there?"

Lady Wan, carrying a tray of tea, gracefully moved to the edge of the desk, her voice gentle yet firm:

"Sir, regarding the earlier offense, I believe compensation has already been made."

Xu Yuan glanced at the corpse outside the hall doors:

"This Soul Singer?"

"In life, he was a Grandmaster, which, for you, Sir should be..."

"I don’t consume humans."

Xu Yuan raised his eyes, interrupting Lady Wan, a slight smile on his lips, his tone very light:

"Please do not equate me with lowly beings like yourself."

Meanwhile,

Xu Yuan nonchalantly took out a box of crystalline bodies from the Sumeru Ring and placed it on the Eight Immortals Table, revealing his ghastly white teeth:

"In general, I only consume my own kind."

"....." Lady Wan.

Looking at that black crystalline body, her instincts told her.

This box of crystalline bodies, crafted from the purest Yin Source of a high-order ghost and some unknown substances, is a treasure!

If consumed...

Just by consuming it, Nuonuo could progress further towards a complete birth!

After staring at the jade box for a moment, Lady Wan quickly averted her gaze because she felt the murderous intent from the millennium-old Ghost Willow before her:

"So, you want it? Just say if you want it, maybe I’ll give it to you if I’m in a good mood, right? After all, Lady Wan, you are such a gracious host, aren’t you?!"

At the end, Xu Yuan’s tone sharply increased.

Standing in front of the Eight Immortals Table, Lady Wan was silent for a while, looking straight into his eyes:

"Since I have offended first... Sir, please feel free to speak your terms?"

Xu Yuan gently lowered his legs from the Eight Immortals Table and stood up:

"What I want, haven’t I already told you?"

Saying so,

he leisurely moved behind Lady Wan, his voice playful as he spoke:

"How about... Lady, you hand over that little one to me?"
