Bai Zihe returned from the cruise and it was past eleven in the evening when he arrived at the hotel.
But shortly after opening the door, a service staff stopped him.
"Sir, please wait a moment!"
Bai Zihe turned and asked, "What is it?"
The service staff handed him two wooden boxes.
"This was just delivered to you by a lady who asked me to bring it."
Saying this, she handed the two wooden boxes to Bai Zihe.
Bai Zihe took them and opened them without any hesitation.
"Ah—"
The service staff glanced curiously and screamed in fright, then sat down on the floor.
Because.
Inside the two wooden boxes were two human heads.
One was Jiang Biebun.
The other was Zhu Longtian.
Both had their eyes wide open, clearly dying with regrets, their appearances most tragic.
Blood continued to seep from the wounds on their necks.
In the small wooden boxes, a large pool had accumulated, emitting a strong腥味, enough to make one nauseous.
Clang.
Bai Zihe closed the boxes expressionlessly.
He looked at the service staff and asked, "Where is the woman who had you deliver these two boxes?"
The service staff took a while to recover, her face gradually improving.
She pointed outside the door and stammered, "She, she... was just at the door."
Hearing this, Bai Zihe immediately walked towards the door.
However.
He stopped after taking a step, turned to the side and said, "Little poison, make her forget what just happened."
Then he went out the door.
The service staff was still dazed, not understanding Bai Zihe's words.
Liu Qianxun stepped forward and breathed on the service staff, "Forget, forget, sleep, tonight you know nothing."
Then.
The service staff's eyes glazed over, and she fell asleep.
Outside the door.
A woman with a graceful figure stood there, as if waiting for Bai Zihe.
However, she wore a white veil mask, her appearance hidden.
But judging from her eyes and eyebrows, it was not difficult to infer that this woman must be a great beauty of celestial grace.
"Who are you?"
Bai Zihe stared intently into the veiled woman's eyes, trying to find some clue.
"Do you really want to know?"
The veiled woman's voice was like jade colliding, light and pleasant to the ear.
She intended to test Bai Zihe's martial arts, and a faint curve appeared on her lips, "However..."
"If you can catch up to me, I'll tell you!"
Saying this, she took a step and appeared at the end of the corridor, then leaped out of the window.
In the night sky.
Her figure was light and graceful, like a flying swallow, quickly speeding into the distance.
A moment later.
Only a small black dot remained in the sky, slowly disappearing at the horizon.
"Heh."
Bai Zihe snorted coldly.
Then, he fixed the direction the veiled woman left and pursued.
With a few leaps, the veiled woman's graceful figure appeared within Bai Zihe's sight.
She stopped on the tip of a tall poplar tree, the trunk showing no sign of bending.
It could be seen that the veiled woman's Qinggong had reached perfection.
She stopped there, clearly waiting for Bai Zihe to approach.
Just as Bai Zihe was about to ask, he heard the veiled woman say, "I thought you wouldn't come."
"Since that's the case..."
"Then our competition officially begins!"
Saying this, she lightly tapped her feet, like a swallow on a sandy shore, and instantly darted out more than a dozen zhang.
In the blink of an eye, she was almost gone.
Such a movement technique was truly rare.
Bai Zihe remained expressionless and chased after her again.
Thus.
The veiled woman ran ahead, and Bai Zihe chased from behind.
In just a few minutes, the two had run out of the bustling city and into the quiet suburbs.
The veiled woman could not shake off Bai Zihe, so she gritted her teeth and unleashed her fastest Qinggong.
Moon Spirit Phantom Steps!
With this Qinggong, she was enough to disdain those of equal strength.
The next second.
She was like a startled swan across the sky, instantly covering dozens of zhang, quickly leaving Bai Zihe far behind.
The veiled woman, not at ease, ran for several more li.
Gradually.
She found that Bai Zihe did not seem to be following her anymore.
"Huh?"
The veiled woman slowed down, stopped in a forest, and looked back with a mocking tone, "Is this Bai Zihe only this capable?"
"Could it be..."
"I misjudged him?"
But the next moment.
A faint voice came from behind the veiled woman.
"Who are you?"
The veiled woman was startled by the sudden voice and quickly turned around.
Behind her stood a tall figure, with a cold and clear face, his hands clasped behind his back, it was Bai Zihe!
"Are you trying to scare me to death, following like a ghost!"
The veiled woman patted her chest and glared at him unhappily.
Bai Zihe remained unmoved, and said indifferently, "You led me here just to say this?"
The veiled woman rolled her eyes, "Tch, you have no sense of romance."
Bai Zihe continued to stare at her as always.
His gaze grew colder.
The veiled woman pouted, "Alright, I admit, you are indeed quite capable."
"To be able to catch up so quickly while I was using 'Moon Spirit Phantom Steps', you are the first one so far!"
Bai Zihe was completely uninterested in her praise and did not respond.
However.
The more Bai Zihe was like this, the more it stimulated the veiled woman's heart.
The veiled woman's eyes flickered, and she suddenly walked in front of Bai Zihe, "Brother Bai, you see we have equal strength, and we are quite a good match."
"How about..."
"Becoming dual cultivation partners?"
Saying this, she leaned close to Bai Zihe's ear and then exhaled a breath of fragrance towards Bai Zihe's face.
A faint musk scent quickly permeated the surroundings.
Bai Zihe's entire body was enveloped in this scent.
Under her pure white veil, the veiled woman's lips also curved into a triumphant arc.
The breath she had just exhaled was called "Phantom God Incense".
As the name suggests, it could make those who inhaled it dream and hallucinate, lose their minds, and eventually become her puppet, playing with them at her fingertips.
And when this Phantom God Incense was exhaled, it was silent, making it impossible to guard against.
Even those ancient martial artists would fall for it if they were not careful.
For example, the Bai Zihe in front of her!
She was confident.
Even if Bai Zihe's martial arts were higher, after smelling this Phantom God Incense, he would be under her control and become an obedient machine!
But just as she proudly turned around, ready to give Bai Zihe an order.
Bai Zihe moved.
The veiled woman felt something was wrong, and was wondering why Bai Zihe was unaffected.
The next moment, Bai Zihe disappeared from her sight.
Not good!
The veiled woman's hair stood on end, but it was too late.
A large hand grabbed her neck from behind, and Bai Zihe's killing intent-filled words instantly reached her ears.
"What exactly do you want to do!"
