“Whoosh…” There was a whistling sound in the air, and dozens of sharp arrows suddenly descended on the pair. One of them almost pierced Yang Dingtian’s ear and instead buried itself in the ground dozens of meters behind him.

This was an empty area in the wilds. As such, it was extremely difficult for one to find a place to hide and escape.

Then, a group of more than a dozen knights quickly advanced to surround Yang Dingtian and Ximen Ningning. Dozens of iron spear blades were leveled at the pair’s throats.

“Who are the two of you? Why aren’t you on the main road but are instead sneaking around in the wilds? What are your intentions?” asked a knight in a cold voice.

During this standoff, the rest of the troop that was a distance away got closer and closer. There were hundreds of horses and more than a dozen magnificent carriages. However, this troop was actually flying the flag of Cloud Sky City.

“Who are you?” Ximen Ningning asked coldly. “Since when are Cloud Sky City troops allowed on the lands of the Northwest Qin family?”

Despite being surrounded, Ximen Ningning’s attitude was still very arrogant.

“Tell us your name. Otherwise, you will die,” the knight ordered coldly.

“Northwest Qin family, the daughter of the Red Stone Fortress Lord, Qin Hongmian,” Ximen Ningning replied coldly.

The knight’s facial expression changed a little after hearing that. “Can you prove it?”

Ximen Ningning immediately took out a jade piece and lit it in front of the knight. It was something that identified her as Qin Hongmian.

“My greetings to Miss Qin.” The knight sheathed his sword and performed a greeting ritual while still on the horse.

Then, the more than a dozen knights withdrew their sharp spears and fanned out.

“Can we go now?” Ximen Ningning asked coldly.

“Of course,” the knight said.

Yang Dingtian and Ximen Ningning immediately left and rode as quickly as possible for a few hundred meters.

“Hold on…..” Suddenly, there was a clear shout in the air. It was the voice of a young man who was yelling from a distance. It was just a simple yell, but it traveled hundreds of meters.

Then, a man came out from the troop, his eyes greedily looking at Ningning’s beautiful back. He said with a touch of laziness, “Who is the lady in front? Turn around and let me see.”

His words were arrogant and contemptuous.

Ximen Ningning and Yang Dingtian stopped their horses and turned around.

“It’s you?” The man in the robes was a little shocked when he saw Ningning. Then, his handsome mouth showed a sinister smile. “Sister Hongmian, why aren’t you taking the main road but using this small road instead? Could it be that you’re up to something that shouldn’t be seen?”

“Qin Shaobai, what does this have to do with you?” Ximen Ningning acted like a hostile Qin Hongmian.

He was Qin Shaobai? While he was less than seventeen years old, he was still so tall and had a beautiful face. The corners of his mouth seemed to be smiling at all times. From his clothes to his hair, every inch was meticulous and full of extravagance. However, his whole face always showed a kind of bohemian look.

“A couple for a night has a hundred days of gratitude. Since you and I have slept together a few nights, why are you so cold to me?” Qin Shaobai teased her with his eyes and scanned Ningning from head to toe, looking like he was about to take her clothes off.

Yang Dingtian said coldly, “Please show some respect.”

Qin Shaobai’s gaze suddenly turned towards Yang Dingtian. He lifted his chin slightly with an arrogant attitude, but his eyes flashed a chilling feeling. He smiled. “Sister Hongmian, is this your new favorite man?”

Then, Qin Shaobai stared at Yang Dingtian coldly. “Didn’t you hear before that the women that I, Qin Shaobai, have slept with, even if I don’t want them, I won’t allow anyone to touch them?”

“Shut up!” Ximen Ningning interjected. “You are already no longer the young master of the Qin family. You were forced out. What right do you have to tell me all these things? Kill me here if you are capable, or don’t. I don’t have the energy to talk crap with you here.”

Qin Shaobai’s gaze turned cold, but his smile grew even wider.

“Ning Lang, let’s go!” Ximen Ningning said loudly.

(TL note: “Ning” refers to Ning Que; “Lang” refers to boyfriend.)

Then, Yang Dingtian and Ximen Ningning both headed east quickly.

Looking at their backs shrinking in the distance, Qin Shaobai did not chase them but let out a cold laugh.

“Shaobai, if you want, just snatch that woman back and kill that man,” a gentle voice said softly. “You are my son, the future owner of Cloud Sky City. You can snatch anything that you want, and you’ve had this woman before. That’s even more reason for you to not let other men play with her.”

“After Qin Hongmian was dumped by me, she became so open and has had many men. I am clean, and I don’t want to be polluted.” Qin Shaobai smiled evilly and said, “I just never expected her body to become so delicate. I didn’t realize it before this.”

“Delicate? Is it as delicate as mine?” the women asked.

……

They rode at a high speed for about twenty miles and entered a mountain. Only when they could no longer see any traces of Qin Shaobai’s troop did Yang Dingtian and Ximen Ningning reduce their speed.

“This Qin Shaobai was really dangerous,” Yang Dingtian remarked.

“Not only dangerous, he’s a madman, a rational but evil madman,” Ningning said. “This person’s greed, salaciousness, and jealousy are really one in a million. He can’t stand to see anyone surpass him. He also wants to own all the precious items and beautiful women that he sees. But, he’s also extremely picky and petty. No matter how beautiful the woman is, he’ll play with her for a month at most and then dump her. Even so, he won’t let any man touch the women that he’d dumped.”

“The Northwest Qin family is willing to tolerate him? Qin Huaiyu can stand him?” asked Yang Dingtian.

Ningning said, “But somehow, he is also both extremely smart and talented. As such, the Qin family’s lord both loves and hates him.”

“Okay, let’s not talk about him anymore, but he is your destined enemy. In the future, there will be many opportunities for you two to interact,” Ningning said. “Let’s hurry to the abandoned ore mine. We should try to get there before sunset, and you’ll be able to get both ice and gold-type beast nuclei. It’s very dangerous to be in the wilderness at night.”

Then, the two of them sped up and rushed towards the Devil Silver Ore Mine following the mountain roads. Although they were in the deep, wild mountains, they traveled along a flat road that was used to transport silver ore out in the past. However, since the ore mine had been abandoned for decades, the road was already covered with long grass.

….

Two hours later, the two of them finally reached the abandoned Devil Silver Ore Mine.

This was a huge mountain field, a huge open space created by deforestation. It contained many wooden houses, a post, and even a small castle. However, these houses had long since been abandoned. Weeds were growing everywhere, and the entire place was filled with a desolated and defeated vibe as well as the smell of wood decay.

Not far away, there was a dark mine entrance that seemed like the mouth of a devil, seemingly bottomless. It was the entrance to the abandoned Devil Silver Ore Mine.

Ningning started with a gentle reminder.

“This is an Aura Pill. This mine has been abandoned for a long time, so there shouldn’t be much air deep inside. This Aura Pill can provide enough oxygen for you to last half a day.”

“Little Tian, this is the Full Restoration Pill and Energy Recovery Pill. You must eat them if you are injured. Even if you are only tired, take it no matter how precious it is. This is the Mysterious Beast Pill. Use it if you’re in danger. You hear me?” Ningning handed over the pills to Yang Dingtian.

The top of Deep Sea Xuan Clothes had been put on Yang Dingtian in the morning. As for the bottom, Ningning had tried to take it off many times, but it was as if it had already grown onto her body.

In the end, Ningning took out a box and opened it. A burning energy came to the fore. It was a two-foot-long weapon and it burst into a fiery red dazzling light.

“This is the feather of the Xuan Sky Magic Phoenix. It is very sharp and is filled with fiery energy. Your Xuan energy is too weak. It will be very difficult for you to kill the beasts with other weapons. You could kill them with this flame feather,” Ningning explained. “Your speed is not fast enough, but your sword martial art is very unique. You must fully utilize the uniqueness of your Pig Killing Swordsmanship and hit the weak spot of the beast first. You should never let any beast strike you first.”

“Also, the energy inside this flame feather is limited. It probably can only kill just over a dozen beasts, so you have to make sure that you have enough energy to reach the unfreezing pond and kill an ice-type beast. Once the energy of the flame feather is exhausted, you must leave the mine. Though the number of beasts here is small, and they are all low-rank, it will be dangerous if you encounter a powerful beast.”

“Sister will be waiting for you outside, but remember, if you don’t come out before sunset, I will go in to find you.”

Yang Dingtian nodded and asked, “Is it safe for you to be outside alone?”

“There are no people in this area, only beasts and demons,” Ningning said. “As long as there is no one else, even if there are strong beasts, I will be safe.”

Ningning was full of confidence because she was a talented beast language master.

“Then I’ll be heading in,” Yang Dingtian said: “Once I get two demon nuclei, I will come out.”

“Well, the things that you should use must be used. Don’t let your sister worry.” Ningning touched Yang Dingtian’s hand and smiled softly. “Go. I will be waiting for you outside.”

Yang Dingtian held onto the flame feather of the Xuan Sky Magic Phoenix, took a deep breath, and slowly walked into the entrance of the mine.
