At night, in Ling Xiao's cave, Ling Xiao's clothes had changed. He had changed from a handsome man to a beautiful woman.
"Young Master, are you really going to leave the family for a period of time?" Bai Yuxi's beautiful eyes flashed with reluctance as she asked.
At this moment, Ling Xiao was dressed as a woman, and his appearance was very comical. He was only doing this because he wanted to sneak out of the family overnight.
It had to be known that the Supreme Elder had given the Five Elements Envoys a strict order to watch Ling Xiao in turn to prevent him from escaping. Ling Xiao had already failed to escape several times, and only then did he think of a clever plan to replace a flower with a tree.
"Yes, Young Master, you must properly cultivate the Water Moon Divine Art during this period of time, understand? When I return, I will definitely see you become a Profound Practitioner. Good luck." Ling Xiao patted Bai Yuxi's white and tender cheeks as he encouraged her.
Bai Yuxi nodded heavily and said, "Young Master, don't worry, I will definitely work hard."
Bai Yuxi made up her mind to properly cultivate. After what happened a few days ago, she knew that she had to become stronger. She definitely couldn't be a burden to her Young Master, and she definitely couldn't let her Young Master worry about her injuries again.
"That's good." Ling Xiao stretched his head out and kissed Bai Yuxi's jade lips as he said.
Although Bai Yuxi was already Ling Xiao's woman, she was thin-skinned and instantly blushed after being kissed like this.
When Ling Xiao was ready, Bai Yuxi went up and hugged Ling Xiao and said, "Young Master, come back quickly. Yuxi will miss you."
Ling Xiao gently stroked Bai Yuxi's beautiful hair and said, "Don't worry, Young Master will definitely come back in a month, at most in three months."
Ling Xiao disguised himself as Bai Yuxi, walking out of the back mountain step by step from the cave.
As expected, the Five Elements Envoys, who had been secretly observing him, didn't recognize him. It wasn't until Ling Xiao left the clan that the guards occasionally glanced at him that none of them recognized him as their Young Master Ling Xiao. They were just curious why Young Master Ling Xiao's maidservant would go out at night.
Although they were puzzled, they didn't go up to question him. They had all heard of Young Master Ling Xiao's actions. They couldn't afford to offend a Young Master who dared to kill a Miss Li in front of the Li Family. Moreover, he was the successor disciple of the Grand Elder and enjoyed unparalleled privileges in the Ling Family.
After leaving the clan, Ling Xiao stepped out of the Cloud Phantom and instantly left the Ling Family's territory.
When Hu Liu and Hu Qi noticed, Ling Xiao had already disappeared.
In a desolate and uninhabited area of weeds, a silhouette flickered, seemingly changing clothes.
"Haha, this Young Master has finally escaped!" This person was none other than Ling Xiao.
He had been longing to go to the Desolate Mountain Range for a long time. He couldn't wait to see those high level spirit beasts and spirit herbs. Maybe he would be lucky enough to catch one or two spirit beasts to play with.
Ling Xiao was like a child who had never seen the world. He was abnormally excited!
He raised his head and looked at the round moon in the sky. The faint halo was very soft and looked very beautiful.
Ling Xiao's mood was very good. He was like a bird released from its cage as he walked towards the place he had agreed with Lone Eagle.
Not far away, he saw Lone Eagle sitting on a horse not far away. Beside him was another handsome white horse.
Ling Xiao couldn't help but sigh. It was really good to have a servant. He decided in his heart that no matter what, he would brainwash Lone Eagle or truly conquer him. He would make him forever serve him and be his servant for a lifetime.
"Young Master, you're here!" Lone Eagle dismounted and bowed towards Ling Xiao.
Lone Eagle was already thirty-three years old. There were three main reasons why he chose to follow Ling Xiao. First, it was because Ling Xiao was the young master of the number one clan in Meteor City. Following Ling Xiao was equivalent to entering the protection of the Ling Clan. Second, it was because he saw Ling Xiao's potential. At the Intoxicated Fragrance Building, he had seen Ling Xiao's decisive killing methods, as well as the astonishing Xuan Skill that could kill people of a higher level. Such a young master with such strength and astonishing means would definitely have more prospects than following an ordinary expert. Third, it was because Ling Xiao was the only successor disciple of the Ling Clan's Grand Elder. This identity was enough to make many people look up to him. To be able to become someone else's servant was Lone Eagle's honor. After all, the Ling Clan did not lack Mystic Realm guards.
These three reasons were the reason why Lone Eagle followed Ling Xiao. If Ling Xiao disappointed him one day and he couldn't get what he wanted, he would choose to leave. In any case, there was no loss.
Ling Xiao patted Lone Eagle's shoulder and said, "You've worked hard. Let's go."
"It's my honor to be able to help Young Master," Lone Eagle said sincerely.
"Come on, don't give me that. This young master isn't someone who is used to shouting. If you come and rely on me, you will definitely get what you want in the future. What I need is your absolute loyalty to me, not an enemy who can stab me in the back at any time. Let's go. One day, you will truly submit to me," Ling Xiao said very confidently.
The two of them flipped onto their horses and galloped away.
Ling Xiao didn't know that behind him, a black shadow was watching the direction he left in. In his hand was a dead man, and he muttered to himself, "This little guy is too willful. I hope you can come back safely."
… …
The Desolate Mountain Range was a three-day journey from Meteor City. Ling Xiao and Solitary Eagle rode their horses all the way to Meteor City. Along the way, they ate some dried meat to kill time. At the same time, Solitary Eagle told Ling Xiao many things about the Desolate Mountain Range.
Only now did Ling Xiao know that the Desolate Mountain Range was filled with danger. If one wasn't careful, they could lose their life at any time. Not only would spirit beasts attack humans, but humans would also kill each other. This was a common occurrence. If one didn't have enough strength or went in with a group, they would most likely die in the Desolate Mountain Range.
After rushing for two days, there was only one more day until they arrived at the Desolate Mountain Range.
At night, the two of them rushed to a relay station that Lone Eagle had pointed out.
This relay station was built for mercenary groups, adventurers, and merchants to rest. The facilities provided here were very good.
There was food, drink, and play. As long as one had enough gold, one's life here wouldn't be any worse than in the Intoxicated Fragrance Pavilion.
Just as Ling Xiao and Lone Eagle walked into the relay station, they immediately heard the noise coming from inside. Some people were eating and drinking, some were talking loudly, and some were hugging women intimately …
"This really is heaven on earth." Ling Xiao couldn't help but inwardly praise when he saw these uncivilized men chatting and having fun here.
As soon as the two of them walked in, two sexy women wearing animal skins came to greet them.
"Please come inside," one of the women called out to Ling Xiao, her beautiful eyes constantly throwing flirtatious glances at Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao glanced at the woman beside him. Her appearance was ordinary, but her figure was extremely alluring. Her towering breasts bulged out of her leopard skin coat, and her waist revealed exquisite skin without the slightest bit of excess flesh. She truly had the capital to captivate men.
Ling Xiao and Lone Eagle walked into the hall with the two women, immediately attracting many gazes.
"Hey, isn't that Lord Lone Eagle?
Who's the youth beside him? "
"I heard that Lord Lone Eagle killed a lot of spirit beasts and obtained a lot of spirit herbs. He should have brought them back to the city to sell. Why did he come out to look for prey so soon?"
"How can we guess the thoughts of a big shot? It's better not to talk too much."
Many of the mercenaries and adventurers in the hall recognized Lone Eagle's identity and discussed in private. Many of them even stood up to greet Lone Eagle respectfully.
"I didn't expect you to be so famous!" Ling Xiao couldn't help but tease.
Lone Eagle said, "Young Master, you must be joking. I've been out since I was eighteen, so naturally, many people know my name."
The two of them chose a place to sit down, then ordered a few jins of wine and some braised meat, and began to eat.
As Ling Xiao ate, he paid attention to the nearly a hundred people in the hall. These people were at least low-level Profound Practitioners, and most of them were mid-level or high-level Profound Practitioners. He didn't find any Martial Disciples, and all of them were filled with killing intent, giving off a very valiant feeling.
Sitting here, he looked like a woman, a little out of place.
Just when the two of them were almost done eating, a coquettish woman, who was twisting her waist and wearing very revealing clothes, walked over to them and said in a loud voice, "Yo, Lord Lone Eagle, why didn't you call me out to accompany you when you came here? Are you looking down on me?"
Before he even got close, a strong smell of marriage entered his nostrils.
Ling Xiao thought to himself, "How coquettish!"
Lone Eagle looked at the woman and shouted, "You slut, I don't have time to fuck you tonight. First, arrange a first-class guest room for my young master. My young master wants to stay tonight."
As soon as Lone Eagle finished speaking, the coquettish woman was startled for a moment. She then turned her gaze to Ling Xiao and immediately said, "Yo, this young master is really handsome. Looking at him makes my heart itch. Why don't you let me serve you tonight?"
As the coquettish woman said that, she gently stroked her chest with one hand and kept throwing flirtatious glances at Ling Xiao.
This kind of woman was too coquettish, and the air of prostitution was too heavy. How could Ling Xiao be interested in her?
"Slut, even if you're in love, you should take a good look at yourself in the mirror. Are you worthy of my young master? If there's a new job, then that's more like it." Lone Eagle didn't give her any face and directly said to the coquettish woman.
The coquettish woman didn't mind. She took the opportunity to sit next to Lone Eagle and pressed her soft breasts on Lone Eagle's shoulder. She said, "Of course there is. Yesterday, a fresh girl was sent over. She hasn't been unsealed yet, but she's a bit stubborn. I don't know if this young master is interested."
Then, Lone Eagle's gaze fell on Ling Xiao, waiting for Ling Xiao's instructions.
"Forget it, I still have to hurry on my way tomorrow. I'll enjoy it when I get back." This time, Ling Xiao didn't come out to play. His main goal was the desolate mountain range. He didn't want to indulge in pleasure before he even reached his destination.
"You heard my young master's words. Hurry up and arrange a room for my young master to rest." Lone Eagle said as he patted the coquettish woman's plump buttocks.
The coquettish woman somewhat reluctantly stood up and went to arrange a room for the two of them.
As soon as the coquettish woman left, two adventurers walked towards them.
"Greetings, Lord Lone Eagle." The two adventurers came to Lone Eagle's side and respectfully greeted him.
Lone Eagle frowned and lightly asked, "What's the matter? Can't you see that my young master is having a meal?"
The two adventurers were shocked and immediately bowed to Ling Xiao. "Young master."
They really didn't expect that Lone Eagle, who had always been a loner, would actually become someone else's servant.
"What's the matter? Just say it, I'll drink my wine." Ling Xiao tore a piece of meat and drank a mouthful of wine.
Seeing that Ling Xiao had spoken, Lone Eagle immediately said, "If you have something to say, spit it out."
The two adventurers nodded, and one of them lowered his voice and said to Lone Eagle, "Lord Lone Eagle, are you going into the mountain range tomorrow?"
Lone Eagle didn't answer, which could be considered as a tacit agreement.
"I wonder if Lord Lone Eagle could hunt a Class 2 Spectre Leopard with us. After we're done, Lord Lone Eagle can take 50% of the profits, and we'll take the other 50%." The adventurer rubbed his hands together as he spoke, as if he was afraid that Lone Eagle wouldn't agree.
"You found a Class 2 Spectre Leopard?"
Lone Eagle was obviously a little tempted, but after taking a look at Ling Xiao, he immediately said coldly, "You better find someone else. I still have to accompany my young master. I'm not free."
