Feng Xia felt as if he had been stabbed hundreds of times all over his body; almost every part of him was in pain, and a strong smell of blood was constantly entering his nostrils.
"Who on earth is refining treasures? Are they trying to destroy Thousand Autumn Valley...? Youniang! Youniang, are you still there? If so, please pull me out of the mud... I think I've been buried in the mud..."
"Ah Xia, I feel like you've pinned me down and I can't move..."
Immediately afterwards, Feng Xia heard the weak, feeble voice of a girl beneath him.
Feng Xia couldn't help but feel helpless.
If he hadn't been injured, it would have been impossible for him to be so unable to extricate himself from this predicament. However, the explosion just now had caused him astonishing injuries, even with his physical strength!
For a while, he could only keep his head on the ground, letting the blood flow freely.
Fortunately, not long after, Feng Xia suddenly felt a slender hand grab her leg from behind and pull it upwards forcefully.
At the same time, a resentful complaint reached his ears.
"Why isn't that bastard Feng Xia back yet? That weird envoy is causing trouble again! I'm going crazy! Wait, Feng Xia, when did you get back?"
"Young girl? No, that's not right..."
Upon seeing the black-haired girl before her, Feng Xia immediately blurted out, then realized what she meant: "Yan Wuyou? How did you turn into You Niang?"
Yan Wuyou: "...Wait! Let me explain first!"
Just then, Zhu Youniang also crawled out from under Feng Xia, staring at "Zhu Youniang" without moving, expressing her curiosity with her silent actions.
"Special Envoy Bai—"
There was a boom.
Lei Shao arrived like a flash of sword light, but immediately afterward, the Grand Elder of Qianqiu Valley froze in shock: "What are you doing, Sect Leader... wait, why are there two Sect Leader wives?!"
……
Chapter 0113
Although Feng Xia and Zhu Youniang have never publicly confirmed their relationship, in Lei Shao's eyes—
They're always coming and going in pairs, even sleeping and living together... Who would you believe if you said they weren't together?
If Fuuka heard these thoughts, she would definitely cry out that she was wronged.
Although Zhu Youniang's sleeping posture has improved somewhat recently, she still occasionally wakes up and climbs onto the roof to remove the tiles.
According to the girl herself, this behavior was entirely instinctive, and it would be difficult to completely overcome without sufficient time.
—Shortly after that, Feng Xia discovered that Zhu Youniang's binding skills had improved significantly; even in her sleep, she could tie spider silk into various different knots...
At this moment.
Lei Shao rushed to the foundry in a hurry, and what he saw next was Feng Xia, who was in a disheveled state, and two girls who, although dressed differently, clearly looked exactly the same.
He used all his wisdom to instantly complete the background setting of the scene he saw.
As everyone knows, these are twin sisters.
Now, in the dead of night, a pair of beautiful sisters came to see their Sect Leader Feng, and not even inside the house. The Sect Leader truly lives up to his reputation as the number one person in Xuanwu; his body is indeed agile and vigorous!
What, you mean there's another White Envoy?
"Wait! Where is Special Envoy Bai?!"
It wasn't until this moment that Lei Shao belatedly came to his senses.
As soon as he spoke, Yan Wuyou, disguised as "Zhu Youniang," immediately changed her expression and hurriedly transmitted her voice to Feng Xia: "The Grand Elder is talking about Bai Ling, a special envoy sent by the imperial court. He has a rather peculiar temper. At first, we thought he was here to cause trouble, but later we found out that this guy is just a bit straightforward."
She thought for a moment, then added, "However, this guy is really strange, and his common sense is seriously lacking. He was originally in the forging room repairing the Spirit King Sword, and he even said he would forge three Yuan Dan treasures as an apology for his previous offense, but now..."
Yan Wuyou did not continue speaking.
But just by looking at the elder's shocked expression, Feng Xia could already guess what had happened: that special envoy Bai Ling had mysteriously vanished into thin air!
If he hadn't suddenly disappeared, the sword embryo, which was only half-finished, wouldn't have collapsed, and there wouldn't have been this explosion.
"But... are you really sure someone came?"
Feng Xia mustered a bit of magical power and barely managed to stand up from the ground. He looked around and activated the Floating Dream Three Lives Technique to carefully sense the surrounding environment.
A short while later, a strange look appeared on his face: "You can feel it for yourselves."
Elder Lei Shao was slightly taken aback, then realized something as well. His eyes widened like copper bells, and he exclaimed in utter horror, "Why... is there no breath at all?"
The white envoy spent a whole day refining the treasure in the foundry. Even if there was a huge explosion just now, it shouldn't be possible to erase all the traces.
At this very moment, no matter how hard he tried to sense it, he couldn't find the slightest trace of Bai Ling's presence in these ruins!
"This...this is truly...unbelievable!"
After a long while, the Grand Elder finally managed to squeeze out a sentence, speechless with astonishment.
Such a high-ranking envoy, such a living person, vanished without a trace, as if he had never existed.
"It's not like there were absolutely no traces left..."
Feng Xia quickly shook his head again. He dragged himself forward and rummaged through a pile of ruins for a while. Suddenly, he pulled out a dusty longsword, which was the newly forged Guardian Spirit King Sword.
Not long after, Feng Xia found another sword hilt, about a few inches long, with less than half an inch of the blade remaining at the end of the hilt.
"This should be the unfinished sword embryo."
A hint of regret flashed in Feng Xia's eyes. He reached out and touched the hilt of the sword, brushing off the dust to reveal the words "Jinghua": "It's such a pity. If this sword had been successfully forged, it would have been a treasure of the Yuan Dan level, with astonishing power. Unfortunately, the forger suddenly disappeared, which caused it to be destroyed halfway through its journey."
In this day and age, Yuan Dan treasures are extremely rare. Even if one obtains one, it is enough to suppress the sect's fortune and deter countless powerful enemies!
"What a pity..." Feng Xia couldn't help but sigh again. "Fortunately, this guy left behind a Spirit King Sword, which is also a top-tier Dao Platform treasure. If it can be refined, it might become a Yuan Dan treasure in the future... No, wait!"
But as he was talking, he suddenly realized the problem, and his brows furrowed instantly:
"How powerful can an envoy sent by the emperor be? Yet, this person can easily refine a Yuan Dan treasure, the value of which is definitely no less than that of a Yuan Dan realm cultivator. How could he be just a mere envoy..."
Moreover, judging from Yan Wuyou's description, Bai Ling's strength is also quite formidable. He has already mastered seven Dao Platforms and is not far from the peak of this realm.
"Sect Leader, could it be that this special envoy has a problem?"
Yanagawa Gen couldn't help but speak up, and as soon as he said it, many eyes turned to him.
At this moment, the six elders had arrived. Almost immediately, they saw the two identical twin sisters beside Feng Xia!
"The sect leader really knows how to have fun..."
The Fourth Elder couldn't help but think to himself, and then he secretly began to worry: "Sword Heart, Sword Heart, do I also have to find a pair of twin sisters like the Sect Leader in order to have any chance of comprehending Sword Heart Clarity?"
Many thoughts surfaced in his mind, but due to Feng Xia's imposing presence, he held back for a long time without being able to utter a single word.
The Fourth Elder didn't notice that the Third Elder, standing to the side, frowned slightly and squinted as he glanced at him.
"There are definitely problems. Putting aside the fact that he is just a special envoy, where did he get such strong cultivation and be able to easily forge a Yuan Dan treasure? Just the time it takes him to travel is a big problem!"
Feng Xia briefly mentioned it, sharing his analysis with them. The elders' expressions changed instantly, and they exclaimed, "That's right! Based on our previous deductions, it will take several days for the news to reach the royal city. Even if the emperor's special envoy departed that day, it would be impossible for him to arrive at Qianqiu Valley now!"
It would take Mo Yuanlong, who is at the Yuan Dan realm, a full seven days to arrive, let alone the special envoy sent by the emperor, whose cultivation level could not possibly be at the Yuan Dan realm!
"When he took out the Guardian Spirit King Sword, it did indeed bear the Emperor's mark, which is why I chose to believe him..." Lei Shao muttered to himself with a gloomy expression and a murderous aura, "But it turns out this guy was a fake envoy? No wonder he came on so aggressively; he probably had ill intentions from the very beginning!"
The Fifth Elder hesitated for a moment, but still cautiously reminded him, "However, he did indeed send the Spirit King Sword, and it seems that, unless some accident occurs, that sword named 'Jinghua' will most likely be successfully forged soon..."
The Second Elder also mentioned, "Moreover, he provided all the materials he used for refining."
As soon as the two of them spoke, everyone was conflicted again.
If the Jinghua Sword is successfully forged, it will undoubtedly be a treasure of the Yuan Dan level!
Everyone present was well aware of the value of the Yuan Dan treasure. Could there really be someone in this world so kind as to offer a Yuan Dan treasure to them for free?
No matter how you look at it, it's highly unlikely!
"Well, fortunately this person didn't cause any harm. From now on, we'll rotate one person each day to guard this place for a month."
Just then, Feng Xia coughed and said, "If this person hasn't appeared in a month, then we can basically rest assured."
……
Chapter 0114
"Sect Leader, are we just going to let this matter drop like this?"
Lei Shao couldn't help but say menacingly, "This person disguised himself as a special envoy and infiltrated Qianqiu Valley. He clearly has ulterior motives. If we can't find him soon..."
Feng Xia shook her head, interrupting him: "But we can't find it now either."
Lei Shao was immediately speechless, his eyes wide open like two copper bells, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down, unable to utter a single word for a long time.
He also knew that Feng Xia was right.
The white envoy had a mysterious background and his cultivation had reached an astonishing level. If it weren't for Feng Xia's presence in Qianqiu Valley, even if the six elders joined forces, they would most likely have been defeated in no time.
Moreover, Bai Ling has suddenly disappeared without leaving a trace. If it weren't for the fact that the Spirit King Sword is still there, he would almost think that his previous experience was just wishful thinking!
Finding Bai Ling in a short period of time is basically an impossible task.
"So at times like this, there's no point in dwelling on it. Instead of worrying about when this person will come back, we should focus on improving our own strength as soon as possible."
Feng Xia thumped his palms and laughed, "Imagine if each of you were at the eighth level of the Dao Platform Realm and the Great Perfection of Sword Heart Clarity, what would Qianqiu Valley have to fear even if this person really had ulterior motives?"
The Fourth Elder, who was standing nearby, suddenly felt a pain in his knee.
After a short while, the elders nodded in agreement: "The sect leader's words of advice are correct."
