Li Guanqi took a deep look at the woman’s back before leaving the Treasure Pavilion with Ye Feng.

On the way back, Li Guanqi asked Ye Feng to hand him the jade bottle they had just acquired.

Li Guanqi opened the jade bottle and found some light red pills inside.

Each pill was only the size of a fingernail, but they were incredibly smooth and exuded a powerful life force and strong spiritual energy. However, there were only three pills in the bottle.

Looking at the label on the bottle, it read “Blood-Boosting Elixir.”

Suddenly!

From a dark lane nearby, a boy who had been walking along the wall sniffed the air and abruptly turned around!

When he saw the blind boy holding the bottle of pills, he stumbled and ran over!

Li Guanqi looked at him in surprise, his brows furrowed.

The boy grabbed his hand, his cloudy eyes full of urgency.

Finally, he spoke, “Don’t eat it!”

His voice was young but hoarse, as if he hadn’t spoken in a long time, making it sound awkward.

He snatched the jade bottle, and Ye Feng’s brows furrowed as he was about to intervene.

Li Guanqi stopped him, wanting to see what the boy would do.

Bang!

The jade bottle shattered, and the three light red pills rolled onto the ground.

The boy’s eyes suddenly turned fierce, and he crushed the pills into powder with intense hatred!

Then the boy looked up at the two of them and said.

“You… good people!”

“This! Can’t eat!!”

After saying that, the boy turned and disappeared into the dark alley.

Li Guanqi watched the boy’s departing figure thoughtfully, then glanced at the powder and jade fragments on the ground, picking them up casually.

“Let’s go, we’ll talk back at the inn.”

Ye Feng showed a hint of confusion but obediently followed him back to the inn.

However, as soon as they returned, Li Guanqi’s face changed slightly.

He whispered, “Someone’s been in our room.”

Ye Feng’s expression also turned serious upon hearing this. He drew his sword and asked in a deep voice.

“Who came?”

Li Guanqi murmured as he looked at the intact sunflower seed shells in his hand.

“Not sure, but it seems we’ve been targeted.”

“It might be related to those two guards at the city gate.”

Although Ye Feng didn’t understand why he made this guess, he didn’t find it unreasonable.

In his mind, Li Guanqi was meticulous, and if he said so, there must be a reason.

“Boss, should we leave now?”

Li Guanqi glanced at the sky outside, a cold smile appearing on his lips.

“No rush. Since they only dared to sneak in, they must be wary of our strength.”

“Let’s take it one step at a time. As long as they don’t provoke us, it’s fine.”

In an inconspicuous courtyard in the south of Lingchang City.

The woman who had received Li Guanqi and Ye Feng during the day was now lying weakly on a bed.

Her graceful figure was particularly striking under the candlelight.

A man was dressing by the bed, his face sinister, his muscular body covered in scars.

A long knife scar ran across his face, and his chin was stubbled.

The man spoke in a low voice, “Luan Ying, did those two take the Blood-Boosting Elixir?”

The woman wiped the sweat off her body and replied weakly.

“They took it, but a big-headed guy smashed it.”

“Yu Kai, I don’t want to work at the Treasure Pavilion anymore.”

“Every day I have to greet people with a smile, and that old bastard who does the appraisals keeps leering at me.”

Yu Kai quickly sat back on the bed, gently stroking the woman’s face and smiling softly.

“Be good, just a little longer.”

“With your help, our Dark Blood Alliance has recruited many people.”

“Soon, all of Lingchang City will be mine!”

Although the woman looked unhappy, she nodded in agreement.

She hugged the man’s waist and suddenly thought of something, asking in confusion.

“By the way, where are Heng and Wen Mei? Why haven’t they returned or sent any news for so long?”

Yu Kai laughed heartily, “You know my brother and his group.”

“They’re always out ambushing rogue cultivators. It’s good if they catch one in ten days or half a month.”

“Maybe they had bad luck this time or are just fishing.”

As he spoke, Yu Kai reached under the woman’s arm and whispered.

“What do you think of those two boys’ strength?”

The woman frowned, her cheeks flushed, and after a moment of contemplation, she spoke softly.

“The one with the golden hair seems to have just entered the Golden Elixir stage. Although his Primordial Energy fluctuations are subtle, they’re quite obvious.”

“However… the boy with the strange sword box is hard to read.”

“Those pure white eyes, when he looked at me, I felt like he could see through me.”

“Not easy to deal with!”

The man’s brows furrowed upon hearing this, and he murmured.

“Must be a young master from a big family out for training.”

“Such people are the hardest to handle. They might have a protector or be very powerful themselves.”

“By the way, is the big-headed guy you mentioned this big?”

The woman nodded slightly at his gesture.

“Yes, his head is that big. He looked quite scary.”

Yu Kai snorted coldly and murmured.

“Since my darling says he’s scary, I’ll kill him later!”

“Hmph! A good blood slave causing me trouble.”

With that, Yu Kai took out a jade slip and shouted.

“Bring that big-headed blood slave here and drain his blood!”

Late at night, Ye Feng had already entered a state of cultivation.

Li Guanqi, on the other hand, was restless, feeling as if someone was watching him.

Li Guanqi’s lips moved slightly, and Ye Feng silently opened his eyes.

Boom!!!

The two exchanged a glance and simultaneously sprang into action!!

Bang!! Bang!!

Two blurred figures instantly shattered the inn’s walls and shot into the sky!

A hundred meters ahead of them, a hidden figure turned into a streak of light and fled towards the south of the city!!

Li Guanqi moved incredibly fast, closing the distance to within dozens of meters in an instant.

The man didn’t hesitate, swallowing a pill that increased his speed dramatically!

At the same time, he crushed a jade slip in his hand and shouted!

“Big brother, come quickly!!”

In an instant, two streaks of light rose from the south of the city!!

Li Guanqi squinted his eyes and transmitted his voice.

“Follow my lead!”

His golden hair fluttered in the wind, and Ye Feng nodded solemnly!

The two streaks of light sped towards them at an incredible speed.
