Sequence Beyond: My Wife is a Mysterious Boss

Lin Bai's brow twitched.

"Tongtian Peak? What's there?"

Hong Nan shook her head.

"have no idea."

"However, judging from what that Senluo Envoy said, his trip there seems to be related to a very ancient crimson behemoth."

An ancient, crimson behemoth.

Lin Bai's eyes lit up.

The older it is, the stronger it is, and the higher the quality of the world's origin and crimson blood it can provide.

Looking at the dejected tribal girl in front of him, who had nowhere to go, he had an idea.

"Since you don't have anything else to do, why don't you come with me?"

......

A month later.

At the foot of Tongtian Peak.

Lin Bai, with Hong Nan by his side, stood on a wide open area of ​​gravel.

During this month, with Hong Nan as his guide, he successfully found the Sky-Splitting Eagle in Black Wind Valley and another crimson behemoth named Flame Demon.

The process went smoothly.

Now, he possesses over 600 copies of the World Origin, which should be sufficient to fulfill the needs of third-order spell deduction.

The Power Body also experienced a slight increase in size and strength after absorbing new Crimson Blood.

"Lord Lin Bai, look! Tongtian Peak!"

Hong Nan's voice was filled with barely suppressed joy.

She pointed to the enormous mountain peak that stretched as far as the eye could see, her small face filled with awe.

"My God, I can't believe I actually made it to this place one day."

"Tongtian Peak, that's a name that only appears in my mother's stories."

Lin Bai was already used to her overreacting.

Since leaving the Sunset Mountains, everything has become new and exciting for this little girl.

She told Lin Bai that she had never left that mountain range since she was born.

For her, the outside world only existed in the stories told by the elders of the tribe.

However... Lin Bai looked up and glanced at the mountain peak as well.

The mountain rises straight into the clouds, making it impossible to determine its true height.

It is indeed quite spectacular.

As he was thinking, his expression suddenly changed, and his spiritual power spread out like a tide.

someone.

More than one.

Without the slightest hesitation, he grabbed Hong Nan's wrist, who was still marveling at the scene.

The shadows beneath their feet enveloped the two of them, and the next moment, they vanished from the spot.

The two figures reappeared in the shadow of a boulder a hundred meters away.

Hong Nan was startled by this sudden turn of events. Just as she was about to speak, Lin Bai stopped her with a look.

She followed Lin Bai's gaze and saw two people walking towards her in the distance.

Both men were dressed in practical, action-oriented clothing with weapons at their waists. Their movements were steady and composed, clearly indicating they were not ordinary people.

Lin Bai remained silent, but instead, using his Dark Body ability, he and Hong Nan lingered far behind them.

Following the two men around a rugged stone forest, a building appeared before them without warning.

Lin Bai was stunned.

This place... actually has people building houses?

It was a two-story building, constructed entirely of massive bluestone blocks, with a rugged style.

As you get closer, you can see a huge wooden plaque hanging above the door, with four large characters carved on it in a flamboyant style.

Bafang Restaurant.

A restaurant?

Lin Bai noticed that the foundation and walls of the house were somewhat rough, as if they had been temporarily erected by some kind of force.

He made his judgment.

It seems that Tongtian Peak has been quite lively lately.

The two men in tight-fitting clothes did not stop and walked straight into the restaurant.

Lin Bai stood there for a while, then followed with Hong Nan.

As soon as I stepped into the restaurant, a woman with a slender figure and wearing a slit cheongsam greeted me with a smile.

"Please come in, esteemed guests."

Lin Bai glanced around the lobby.

There were already quite a few people inside, gathered in twos and threes, talking in hushed tones.

These people, each with their own distinct aura, were all weak.

"Lin Bai?"

A slightly surprised female voice came from not far away.

Lin Bai looked in the direction of the sound.

At a table by the window, Ning Wei was holding a wine glass, looking at him with a face full of surprise.

There were several other people sitting next to her; judging from their clothes, they were probably also students from the Trailblazers War Academy.

Lin Bai was also somewhat surprised to see Ning Wei.

He nodded, which was his way of saying hello.

Hong Nan nervously grabbed Lin Bai's clothes.

She could sense that everyone in the room was stronger than her.

"What a coincidence, I didn't expect to run into you here."

Ning Wei put down her wine glass and walked over, her gaze sweeping over Hong Nan next to Lin Bai, a hint of curiosity flashing in her eyes.

"You're here for Tongtian Peak too?"

Lin Bai hummed in agreement.

"You're quite well-informed."

Ning Wei smiled and lowered her voice.

"I only received the news a few days ago."

"It is said that someone discovered a sub-space resembling a secret realm at the summit of Tongtian Peak."

"In that space, there was an ancient crimson behemoth that had lived for countless years."

"Moreover, that giant beast seems to be dying."

......

An ancient, crimson behemoth that has lived for countless years.

dying.

Lin Bai repeated it to himself; this was the purpose of his visit.

"Come and sit down." Ning Wei beckoned to Lin Bai.

Lin Bai nodded, pulled the still bewildered Hong Nan, and walked over.

Ning Wei naturally reached out and put her arm around Hong Nan's shoulder, leading her to sit down next to her.

"Hongnan, what brings you here too?"

Hongnan's body stiffened for a moment, she lowered her head, murmured an "Mmm," and then fell silent.

Ning Wei glanced at Hong Nan, whose expression was clearly off, and then at Lin Bai, whose face remained normal, a hint of inquiry flashing in her eyes.

But he didn't ask any further questions; he just smiled and poured them both a glass of water.

Lin Bai's gaze swept across the lobby.

There were no fewer than a hundred people sitting in the main hall of the restaurant.

There were strong men with two horns on their heads, and old men with skin like tree bark.

There was even a strange man sitting in one corner, whose four arms were all wiping weapons at the same time.

People from different worlds.

Lin Bai made a judgment in his mind.

It seems that obtaining the essence and crimson blood of that ancient behemoth peacefully will not be easy.

Just then, the restaurant doors opened again.

A middle-aged man wearing a blue Taoist robe walked in.

He walked steadily, his expression calm.

As soon as he entered, the woman in the cheongsam immediately went to greet him, bowed, said something, made a "please" gesture, and led him towards the stairs.

The moment the Taoist priest entered, the previously noisy hall fell silent.

The man in the Taoist robe followed him upstairs without glancing to the side.

Lin Bai looked at that figure from behind, but he couldn't sense anything. The other person seemed like an ordinary person.

He looked away and turned to Ning Wei.

"Who is that?"

Ning Wei shook her head, picked up her wine glass, and took a sip.

"have no idea."

She paused, then added.

"However, it must be at least level nine."
