Chapter 425: Chapter 425: Turn to Ashes with a Wave of the Hand_1
The next morning, Nangong Wu and Li Peichi left after breakfast.
Now that Mo Shaoyun was healthy again, she didn’t stay at home. Instead, she was escorted by Zhang Xian to the headquarters of the Tiannan Group.
In the past, Li Peichi was a reporter for The First, and it was because she was tracking the progress of Zhang Xian and Mo Shaoyun that she got to know Zhang Xian. Now, she no longer works for The First.
After getting to know Mo Shaoyun, she became good friends with Nangong Wu, who later brought her to the Fairy Palace.
In a bustling place like Yanjing, there is no shortage of entertainment clubs. The Fairy Palace is one of them. With the support of the Mo family, it has now become a leader in the entertainment industry.
And Nangong Wu is the founder of the Fairy Palace.
"Sister Wu, why do I feel unsafe? Should we go to Elder Sister Shaoyun?"
After entering the Fairy Palace, Li Peichi said, "Even though Zhang Xian keeps saying nothing serious happened, I have a bad feeling about this, like something’s about to happen."
Nangong Wu laughed, "Really? I don’t have that feeling at all!"
"Well... maybe I’m worrying too much!"
Li Peichi took a deep breath and said, "Let’s go in, rather than standing outside. With so many security guards in the Fairy Palace, it should be hard for ordinary people to get close to you."
"Right..." Nangong Wu nodded, walking gracefully into the club.
Across from the Fairy Palace, a man sat in a window seat at a small beverage shop.
A young man in a trench coat was fixedly staring at the entrance to the Fairy Palace, his handsome face harboring a hint of coldness.
He had known about Nangong Wu’s Pure Yin Physique for some time. However, he had been preoccupied with other matters earlier and had had his ghoul keeping an eye on Nangong Wu. Unexpectedly, just upon his return and before he could take action against Nangong Wu, his ghoul had been discovered and exterminated by an expert, rendering all his years of efforts wasted.
As an Evil Cultivator who mainly cultivated ghouls, his own strength wasn’t much without his ghoul.
Now that his ghoul was gone, his strength was greatly diminished. Even a mere post-natal Cultivator could easily eliminate him, which he found unbearable.
Thus, his attention was once again on Nangong Wu. If he could capture this woman and refine her into a zombie, his strength would greatly increase, and he would have the strength to fight even an Innate Cultivator.
"I hope this woman’s constitution hasn’t been discovered by other evil cultivators," the young man murmured to himself as he stared at the Fairy Palace entrance.
To be pure Yin or pure Yang was unlike other constitutions and often went unrecognized in one’s youth. As they age and reach their mid-twenties, these traits gradually emerge.
This was why Nangong Wu’s constitution was only recently discovered. It was not until it reached a perfect state that an Ancient Martial Arts Practitioner could sense it.
Of course, Martial Artists and Cultivators are two different things. In the Cultivation World, one’s constitution can be determined at birth.
The day went by quickly.
The young man in the trench coat sat in the beverage shop, not taking a single step outside.
Although the staff in the shop were a bit curious and somewhat dissatisfied, they didn’t directly drive him away.
"Why hasn’t the woman come out yet?" the young man in the trench coat suddenly frowned.
From morning till dusk, he had stayed put and kept watch over the entrance. It was already eight in the evening, and Nangong Wu should have come out by now, but there was still no sign of her.
But he had no intention of leaving and waited patiently. Whether he could become a powerful Cultivator depended on Nangong Wu. What did a little waiting matter?
Ordering another glass of watermelon juice, he continued to stare at the entrance of the Fairy Palace, his eyes sweeping over the people coming and going with a hint of chilliness.
"She’s out."
At one moment, the young man suddenly stood up, threw down a tip, and quickly rushed out of the beverage shop.
"Sister Wu, don’t you think Zhang Xian’s going too far?"
After leaving the Fairy Palace, Li Peichi pouted, "That damned man, how dare he not come to pick us up? Once we get back, I’ll definitely give him a piece of my mind."
Nangong Wu said, "He might be busy with something. We can drive ourselves back."
"That’s not a good excuse."
Li Peichi gritted her teeth and said, "What can be more important than our lives? What’s wrong with that guy? Why can’t he sort out his priorities? He could have come with Elder Sister Shaoyun."
Just as Nangong Wu was about to reply, having gotten into the driver’s seat and opened the car door, a young man suddenly rushed up from a direction, jumped into the Cadillac quickly, and knocked Nangong Wu unconscious with a swift chop to the neck.
"Ah..."
Li Peichi was just getting into the car when she saw the young man in the trench coat from before, and screamed in fright.
"Haha..."
Laughing heartily, the young man in the trench coat started the Cadillac and sped off in a certain direction.
"Ah..."
Li Peichi screamed again, quickly pulled out her phone and dialed Zhang Xian’s number, "Damn Zhang Xian, Sister Wu was captured. What do you mean by not coming when I asked you to come?"
"Captured? Just now?"
Li Peichi anxiously said, "Yes! What should we do? If Sister Wu gets even slightly hurt, I will never forgive you. It’s all your fault."
"Why is it my fault again? Don’t blame everything on me."
Li Peichi angrily said, "Isn’t it you? If you had agreed to pick us up, would this have happened?"
"If I had come to pick you up, would that young man have appeared? If he hadn’t appeared, could I have found out whether he had accomplices? Could I have exterminated him right away? Stop flying off the handle."
Li Peichi paused, asking, "Huh? What do you mean? Did you do this on purpose?"
"No shit..."
Li Peichi angrily said, "But, isn’t this way, Sister Wu in grave danger? If anything happens to her, you’re responsible!"
"Don’t worry, I’ll save her very soon."
Li Peichi stomped her foot in anger. Just as she was about to berate him, Zhang Xian had already hung up the phone, leaving her so angry that she felt like smoke was coming out of her head. This guy, he actually dared to joke about Sister Wu’s safety.
"Ha ha..."
In Beijing, within a nondescript shabby small building, a trench-coated youth looked at Nangong Wu, who was still unconscious on a bed, and couldn’t help but laugh heartily.
This woman, she finally fell into his hands.
"The thing I want should be arriving now. I can’t wait!"
The trench-coated youth glanced at Nangong Wu, touched a few points on her body, covered her with a blanket, and rapidly walked out the door.
The person has been captured, and the only thing missing now are the materials he ordered. Calculating the time, those should arrive today. Once he has the materials and finds a place to hide, everything will be set.
"I hope not to be disappointed." The trench-coated youth locked the door and checked it again before descending the stairs.
The materials required for refining a zombie are somewhat rare, and some of them are hard to find. Relying on his own efforts would be difficult, so he chose to buy them from others.
"Hm? The guy is not here?"
Not too long after the youth left, a figure pushed open the door and walked in. It was Zhang Xian.
Last time, he left a trace of Spiritual Energy inside Nangong Wu. As long as the distance wasn’t too far, he could detect a faint trace of it, allowing him to find her quickly.
"Sister Wu is still here, that guy should be coming back."
After discovering Nangong Wu on the bed, Zhang Xian quickly walked over to check on her. Upon realizing that she was not hurt, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he did this on purpose, aiming to draw the trench-coated youth out, there was still a certain risk involved.
Under normal circumstances, Nangong Wu would not be harmed in the short term. However, everyone has their own thoughts. Who could guarantee that the other party wouldn’t act unexpectedly?
"Click..."
About half an hour later, the door was suddenly opened.
Straight after, the trench-coated youth holding a black bag walked in.
Seeing that Nangong Wu on the bed remained unharmed, his face immediately showed a hint of excitement.
He had gathered all the necessary items, as long as he could leave here safely and find a place to hide, within a month, he would definitely become an existence even Innate experts would fear.
"Are you alone?"
Suddenly, a young man walked out of the restroom, laughing as he said, "I thought you had other accomplices! If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have bothered hiding."
"It’s you..."
When the trench-coated youth saw Zhang Xian, he was almost scared to death.
On the way here, he was very careful. He even deliberately took a detour and didn’t notice anyone following him. How did this guy find him?
"That’s right, it’s me."
Zhang Xian laughed, "You escaped last time, but this time, even if you had an extra pair of legs, I doubt you could escape."
"You..."
The trench-coated youth angrily said, "What do you mean? Why won’t you leave me alone?"
"Do I have nothing better to do than to fixate on you?"
Zhang Xian shook his head, "Those who do not court death will not die. If you hadn’t targeted my friend, would you be in this situation?"
The corner of the trench-coated youth’s mouth twitched unnaturally. Then, he abruptly turned around and dashed towards the door.
"Think you can run away?"
Zhang Xian stepped forward, swinging a wave of Spiritual Energy.
"Thud..."
The youth hadn’t run more than a few steps when a gust of wind suddenly rushed in from behind him, directly severing one of his legs.
"Ah..."
Amidst his screams, the trench-coated youth’s body suddenly lost its support, and he fell to the ground.
"Just die! I’ll make it quick."
Zhang Xian struck again, directly severing the youth’s throat. Then, he ignited a flame, incinerating the youth’s body until there was nothing left but a pile of ashes.
After scattering the ashes, he turned back into the room, walked over to Nangong Wu’s bedside, and pressed several points on her body.
"Ah..."
Nangong Wu shrieked, swiftly striking towards Zhang Xian’s throat.
Zhang Xian was startled, hastily backing away, and looked at Nangong Wu with a puzzled expression. He seemed to be here to rescue her, but instead of thanking him, why was she attacking him?
