"Why didn't you just kill him directly!"
Feng Xiao looked at the young man, then at the two people "battling" in the room, his face full of confusion.
When he and Nie Yun first entered the room, they saw Nie Liu, who was "overwhelmed by his animal instincts," and he no longer had any doubts, completely trusting the much younger youth.
Trust was one thing, but he was very confident in his own willpower and did not believe that taking the Thousand Desire Flower would make him lose his nature. However, when he saw Nie Liu not even distinguishing between men and women, he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat!
This medicine is too potent! From the looks of it, even a god would not be able to withstand it! If the young man hadn't come earlier and he had taken this medicine...
Imagining himself not distinguishing between men and women and pouncing on anyone, Feng Xiao's face turned ashen, looking very bad, and he looked at Nie Yun with gratitude.
If it weren't for him exposing Nie Liu, his reputation would have been ruined!
This young man looks so much younger than me, how could he have discovered such a scheme and disguised it so well that no one could see through it?
Thinking of this, he secretly admired Nie Yun, but admiration aside... what is he going to do now?
The two entered the room, and the butler Nie Lin was dodging Nie Liu's embraces. Feng Xiao planned to deal with Nie Liu himself, but he didn't expect Nie Yun to act first. Instead of attacking Nie Liu, he attacked Nie Lin, sealing his strength with one move...
Thus, Nie Lin met a tragic end, being pinned down by the "unrivaled in wisdom" young master, emitting a series of cries that made heaven and earth weep, and gods and spirits shed tears...
Deliberately knocking down Nie Lin to let Nie Liu "succeed"... what is he planning?
Wants to watch men with men... cough, cough, he wouldn't have such a hobby...
"Kill him? To dare plot against my sister, letting him die like this would be too lenient!"
Nie Yun, unaware of Feng Xiao's thoughts, made a series of hand signs with his hands. In front of him was a small crystal stone, clear and transparent.
"Done!"
After a while, Nie Yun retracted his hands, chuckled, and held the crystal stone in his palm.
"Too lenient? Is there something strange about this crystal stone?"
Not knowing why the young man said this, Feng Xiao looked at the crystal stone in front of him, scratching his head.
This thing was casually picked up by the young man in the tavern, just a very ordinary decoration. Although he didn't know what it was for, the hand signs he continuously made were incomprehensible to him, and from this, he knew there must be a purpose.
"What's strange about it, hehe, you'll see!"
Hehe, Nie Yun chuckled, and the spiritual energy in his body suddenly surged into the crystal stone in his palm. In an instant, an image appeared on the surface of the crystal, showing the "chrysanthemum battle" right in front of them!
"Recording images..."
Seeing this, Feng Xiao's eyes widened in shock.
Recording images in an ordinary crystal stone, this kind of technique he had never heard of!
"Hehe!" Nie Yun laughed, casually putting the crystal stone in his pocket.
This image recording technique was learned from a demon in his previous life, capable of recording what he saw in ordinary crystals. When he learned it, he thought it was just a game and didn't take it seriously, but he never expected to use it now.
Humph, daring to plot against my family, I'll let you taste the bitterness of being plotted against! With this image, no matter how cunning you are, Nie Liu, you'll have to listen to me, unless you want your reputation to be ruined!
Being called the Blood Hell Demon Lord, Nie Yun was naturally not a good person. A monster who had lived for hundreds of years, his methods of dealing with enemies were not limited to killing!
If killing is better than not killing, why not do it?
Hearing the young man's laughter and seeing his actions, Feng Xiao's mouth couldn't help but twitch.
Even in this open world, men with men... it seems to be unacceptable!
Once this news spreads, it can be foreseen that Nie Liu will definitely be killed by the Nie family on the pretext of damaging the family's reputation! With this leverage, Nie Liu would have no choice but to follow his orders.
How ruthless!
Killing without changing his expression, plotting against others with a smile, this kind of skill, this kind of wisdom, this kind of ruthless and cruel style...
I must never make this kid my enemy in the future!
Feng Xiao suddenly had this thought.
"You... what did you do to me..."
After the "pleasure," the effects of the medicine on Nie Liu diminished, and he gradually regained his senses. When he saw that his actions had been recorded, he was almost in tears.
He never imagined that after all his efforts, the situation would turn out like this!
"What did I do? I'll explain it to you properly!" Nie Yun laughed and walked over.
Feng Xiao knew that Nie Yun must have his own purpose, and as an outsider, it wasn't appropriate to listen in detail, so he went to the middle of the tavern and found a stool to sit on.
Earlier, Nie Liu was afraid of the situation getting too big, so he only left three waiters in the entire tavern. Two were killed, and the other was Nie Yun. Now the hall was empty, saving Feng Xiao the trouble of wasting his fists.
After about two incense sticks' time, the young man came out. Although he didn't know what agreement they had reached, from Nie Yun's beaming face and Nie Liu's mournful expression, he knew that the former must have gained a great advantage.
"I am deeply grateful for what you did today, and I will definitely repay you in the future!"
Feng Xiao was a principled person. This time, he owed Nie Yun a favor, so he bowed and said this, preparing to leave.
"Wait, Young Master Feng Xiao, I have something to discuss with you!" Nie Liu said.
"Discuss with me?"
"I heard that your Feng family has a thousand-year-old Wu Xu Cao. Could you part with it? I am willing to pay double the price!" Nie Yun suddenly said.
Wu Xu Cao is a holy medicine for healing, extremely precious. In the entire Luoshui City, only Feng Xiao had obtained one by chance, which is the main ingredient for refining the holy healing medicine, "Heart Restoring Pill"!
The Heart Restoring Pill, as its name suggests, can restore a lost heart. Although this claim is somewhat exaggerated, it shows the power of this pill!
His father's qi sea was damaged, and his dantian could not be cultivated. If he had this Heart Restoring Pill and combined it with the "Spiritual Rhinoceros Body Cultivation Technique," helping him fully recover might not be difficult!
"How do you know we have Wu Xu Cao?" Hearing the young man's words, Feng Xiao's eyebrows shot up, and a strong killing intent flashed in his eyes. If the young man in front of him weren't his savior, he would have attacked directly.
Wu Xu Cao, such a precious herb, is as valuable as a royal cultivation technique. If the news leaked, it would surely cause a storm. The Feng family had never mentioned it to anyone after obtaining it by chance. How did this young man know?
"Uh..."
Hearing his question, Nie Yun suddenly remembered that the news of the Feng family having Wu Xu Cao only spread 18 months later. After that, the four major families fought over the herb, weakening them, and Luoshui City was attacked and destroyed by demons!
Possessing knowledge from his previous life, he had forgotten this, but after two lifetimes, he was already very composed. He smiled faintly, "You don't need to know where I got the information. I only ask you, will you part with it?"
Although Feng Xiao was not the family head, as the first heir and the one who obtained the herb, he had the authority to decide on the Wu Xu Cao, which was not surprising.
"I helped you today, and I will repay you in the future. If you try to take advantage of this and demand an exorbitant price, the Feng family will not fear anyone!" Feng Xiao waved his hand and turned to leave.
In his eyes, the young man in front of him must be out of his mind. Although he had saved him from embarrassment today and had done him a favor, to think that he could exchange this for Wu Xu Cao was a dream!
Wu Xu Cao was a precious item he obtained from an ancient relic, equivalent to a life for qi sea cultivators. It was absolutely impossible to give it to anyone, no matter how high the price!
"Feng brother, don't leave in a hurry. I still have something to ask. Have you not activated your bloodline factor yet?" Although he had memories from his previous life, Nie Yun still wanted to confirm.
"Humph!"
Hearing the young man not only demand an exorbitant price but also ask this, Feng Xiao was almost enraged. The little bit of goodwill he had just developed towards the young man vanished instantly.
Who in Luoshui City didn't know that he couldn't activate his bloodline factor? Was he asking this to deliberately humiliate him?
"There are two possibilities for not activating a bloodline factor: one is not having a bloodline factor, and the other is having one but being unable to activate it. If I'm not mistaken, Feng brother should belong to the latter, right?" Ignoring the other's anger, Nie Yun continued.
"It's none of your business!" Clenching his fists, Feng Xiao found the young man in front of him extremely annoying, almost exploding with anger.
Everyone in Luoshui City knows that my bloodline factor is naturally blocked. Do I need you to mock me?
Just because you saved me, you can mock me like this? How can there be such a despicable person in the world!
Ignoring the other's roar, Nie Yun smiled lightly, "If you have a bloodline factor, there must be a way to activate it. Hehe, what if the chip I use to exchange for Wu Xu Cao is my ability to help you activate your bloodline factor?"
The voice was not loud, but it was like a thunderclap, making Feng Xiao's whole body stiffen as if struck by lightning.
