He discovered a figure near the cliff to the left.
That personâs back was facing them. His black hair was pulled up into a high ponytail and he was wearing a black outfit that showed his broad back and slender waist. When the sharp cold wind of the mountain blew, the corners of his robes were swept up, revealing a pair of long legs that were slightly bent as he leaned against the rock wall. As if he had sensed the personâs gaze, he turned to look in this direction. His unruly eyes seemed to contain the light of stars as he grinned nefariously. âHai, long time no see ah, Saint Envoy Xiang.â
âMing Mengxin?â asked that person in an uncertain tone.
Most of the Saint Envoys wore a black robe that concealed them from head to toe in order to avoid letting people discover their true appearances. Due to this, even if two Saint Envoys encountered each other on the streets without a mask, they likely wouldnât recognize each other.
Ming Mengxing was a special case though. His blood didnât dry up and his flesh didnât lose its luster despite the fact that he practiced the Saint Envoysâ martial arts.
Still, very few Saint Envoys had seen his true appearance. The only reason Saint Envoy Xiang had ventured this guess was because of his unique eyes.
âSaint Envoy Xiang truly has a short memory, characteristic of eminent persons. We saw each other just last month in Green Maple City. How could you have forgotten me so soon?â Jun Xin walked over slowly. As the faint blue light floated in front, lighting the way, it made it seem as if he was treading on starlight.
These words verified his identity. He was undoubtedly Ming Mengxin.
Saint Envoy Xiang stood up and stared at Ming Mengxin. âAre you betraying the Saint Tribe?â
âBetraying? When have I ever been loyal to it?â Jun Xin smiled demonically as he caught the antique lamp. âI was just borrowing it to investigate some things. What stupid Saint Tribe? Theyâre just a bunch of lunatics delusionally trying to revive some Saint Tribe. How laughableâ¦â
âYou!â Saint Envoy Xiang was so enraged by his tone that he almost coughed blood, but he couldnât find the words to refute and could only say, âThe Saint Tribes wonât forgive you!â
âHow naive. Do you think the Saint Tribes would find out?â asked Jun Xin with an evil smirk.
Saint Envoy Xiangâs face immediately turned pale as panic appeared in his eyes. It was already hard enough to deal with Baili Yu, yet Ming Mengxin had shown up as well. From the looks of it, he was going to fall here.
His gaze darkened, then he quickly pulled out five Thunderbolt Beads and threw them towards Jun Xin and Baili Yu.
Thunderbolt Beads were concealed weapons that had immense damage power. Even pinnacle experts couldnât underestimate them.
A single bead already costed a shocking amount, but for the sake of escaping, he could only endure the emotional pain and throw out five of them at once. He was about to take advantage of this chance to escape when he saw that the beads had stopped in mid air while still spinning.
Thunderbolt Beads only exploded once they made contact with something. Now that they had been stopped in the air, they couldnât do anything.
Saint Envoy Xiang was stunned. Has Baili Yuâs martial arts already reached this level?
To be able to block something in midair, was this still martial arts?
However, he no longer had much more time to think about this as the Thunderbolt Beads were now flying back at him. He didnât have the ability to stop the beads in midair and could only retreat backwards. However, the beads continued chasing after him as if Baili Yu was controlling them.
âDonât play around anymore, sheâs still at Blue Moon Lake!â Jun Xin inwardly sighed as he watched Saint Envoy Xiang being chased around by the Thunderbolt Beads. Baili Yu was seriously a devil. He was probably the only one in the world that could toy with a Saint Envoy like he was a little mouse.
It was a good thing he had turned back early and didnât continue opposing him.
Upon hearing this, Baili Yu gave a light laugh. âWith the Mandate of Heavenâs Child there, nothing will happen to herâ¦â
Unexpectedly, right after he spoke, they saw a figure running towards them as if his life depended on it. Naturally, the person was Yuner.
However, Tang Doudou wasnât next to him. When they saw his flustered appearance, both of them simultaneously had bad premonitions.
Baili Yu extended his hand and the Thunderbolt Beads immediately stopped. Before Saint Envoy Xiang could even react, they shot forward again. With a loud bang, they smashed into the tree next to him, injuring him with the enormous shockwave. His eyes rolled back and he instantly passed out.
Meanwhile, Jun Xin was already heading towards Yuner.
Baili Yuâs expression turned serious as he called, âYe Chuan.â
Ye Chuan walked out of the forest leading a group of subordinates. He looked towards the ground at Saint Envoy Xiang, then instructed his subordinates to carry him away.
âWhat? You said that sheâs been poisoned? And sheâs even disappeared?â
When Baili Yu walked over, it was right in time to hear Jun Xinâs angry shouting. âWhat exactly have you been doing!? Why didnât you keep an eye on her!?â
âAh Xin, youâll scare Yuner.â Baili Yu put his hand on Jun Xinâs shoulder, indicating for him to calm down.
However, Jun Xin refused. He had only agreed to help Baili Yu because he guaranteed to protect her. But itâs only been a few days and something had happened to the person again.
âQuit trying to brush it over. If something happens to her this time, even if you try to kill me Iâll still bring her away!â
After he finished speaking, he grabbed Yuner and made to leave.
Baili Yu shook his head, feeling helpless in face of Jun Xinâs irascible personality. However, he suppressed his temper and blocked him. âIâve said that nothing would happen to her, so sheâll be fine.â
Jun Xin frowned and shouted, âThe personâs already disappeared! Whatâs the use in you saying this? Move! Iâm going to look for her!â
âAh Xin, it was probably the mysterious black-clothed person that took her away. Could it be that youâre not curious who he is?â
Jun Xin continued to be furious. âOf course I want to know, but thereâs no way I want to find out like this! If she found out you did this, sheâll definitely hate you to death!â
