Chapter 1413: Chapter 1413: Encountering Viper Again
Liu Lixue looked at her senior sister Zhao Tianmei with a puzzled expression, but Zhao Tianmei slightly shook her head, hinting her not to speak.
Zhao Tianmei continued, "Black Sun City is indeed a dangerous place. Mr. Jing Yan, my junior sister has good intentions. Daoist Gao Feng and the others are not strong enough. Going to Black Sun City is not as safe as staying in Tanshan City."
At this moment, Jing Yan also understood the intention of Zhao Tianmei and her junior sister.
He shook his head with a light laugh and said, "No worries, Feng’er and Dongxue can go with me, it’s fine. You need not worry."
Jing Yan indeed had this confidence.
The cultivation environment of this All Paths World, although even better than the high-class Divine Domain of the God Realm, still made God Lord realm martial artists scarce. Just speaking of this Tanshan City, a top family like the Liu Family only had one martial artist at the God Lord realm.
As for Super First-class God Lords, akin to Divine Sovereign level, they were even rarer. For Jing Yan, God Lords below the Divine Sovereign did not pose a great threat. Moreover, if things really got bad, he could have Gao Feng and Jing Dongxue enter the Qiankun Small World to escape.
And for himself, possessing the Ultimate Nihility meant that even when facing a Super First-class God Lord, he could still protect himself.
After hearing Jing Yan’s words, Liu Lixue’s expression visibly changed, though she said nothing. That look was enough to show that she thought Jing Yan was bragging.
However, Zhao Tianmei’s eyes slightly brightened. Compared to Liu Lixue, she believed more in Jing Yan’s true capabilities.
"In that case, shall we depart now?" Zhao Tianmei asked.
"Alright!" Jing Yan replied.
The group left the Seven Treasures Restaurant and exited Tanshan City. The city lord Zhao Tianmei took out an Acquired Spiritual Treasure Spaceship.
Given that Tanshan City was not far from Black Sun City and that there were no transmission arrays near Black Sun City, taking a spaceship directly from Tanshan City to Black Sun City was relatively more convenient.
Several days later, Jing Yan and the others entered the territory of Black Sun City.
Strictly speaking, Black Sun City wasn’t exactly a city. It didn’t have the large-scale buildings that Tanshan City had, nor did it have a guardian array. In this City without Master, there were only a few scattered simple structures.
Martial artists came here mainly to trade resources. If you wanted to sell resources, you could simply find a place to set them up, and if someone was interested, they would naturally discuss the transaction with you.
Because robbery and looting occurred easily here, martial artists who came to Black Sun City were generally at least of Main God cultivation. Martial artists below Main God dared not easily enter Black Sun City.
Approaching Black Sun City, Jing Yan and the others all came onto the deck of the spaceship.
"Mr. Jing Yan, in another thirty minutes, we should be able to see Black Sun City," Zhao Tianmei said to Jing Yan with a smile.
"Hmm." Jing Yan nodded and added, "Your Sect Master coming to Black Sun City, is it also for trading resources?"
"It’s not!" Zhao Tianmei shook her head, "Our Divine Woman Sect and another sect called Ghost Leaf Sect will soon engage in a battle to seize the city. The Sect Master is coming exactly for this matter. There is less than a month before the battle, so Mr. Jing Yan will soon be able to meet our Sect Master. At that time, Mr. Jing Yan can inquire about the All Paths Sacred Land personally from the Sect Master."
"Thank you." Jing Yan cupped his hands again towards Zhao Tianmei.
"Huh?"
At this moment, Liu Lixue, who was standing not far away, made a noise.
"Senior sister, look, in front, isn’t that our Senior Sister Ying Li?" Liu Lixue extended her hand, pointing ahead.
Upon hearing Liu Lixue’s words, Zhao Tianmei’s expression slightly tightened, focusing intently.
Jing Yan also saw that there was a female martial artist in a dark green long dress flying rapidly towards their direction.
"It’s Senior Sister Ying Li!" Zhao Tianmei quickly nodded affirmatively.
"Did Senior Sister Ying Li arrive at Black Sun City earlier too? But why is she coming out of Black Sun City now?" Liu Lixue murmured with a frown.
The female martial artist named Ying Li seemed to also notice Zhao Tianmei’s spaceship. After a slight pause, she accelerated towards the location of the spaceship.
Since the spaceship and she were flying towards each other, the distance between them was quickly shortened.
"Senior Sister Ying Li, why are you leaving Black Sun City?" Liu Lixue shouted loudly while there was still a distance.
Within just a breath’s time, the female martial artist named Ying Li was already close by. It was clear her expression was somewhat panicked, and she occasionally glanced back.
"Two junior sisters!" Ying Li flickered onto the spaceship, greeting Zhao Tianmei and Liu Lixue.
Her gaze swept across Jing Yan and Gao Feng but she didn’t pay much attention, assuming they were inconsequential.
"The Sect Master and others aren’t on the spaceship?" Ying Li’s eyebrows furrowed.
"We did not travel with the Sect Master. I left the sect alone first, then went to Tanshan City to see Senior Sister Zhao Tianmei, so we came to Black Sun City first. The Sect Master and others may need more time to arrive," Liu Lixue said.
"Senior Sister Ying Li, have you encountered something?" Zhao Tianmei noticed Ying Li’s unusual tension. She was much more perceptive than Liu Lixue, so she seized a moment to ask Ying Li.
"Not good!" After hearing Liu Lixue confirm that the Sect Master was indeed not present, Ying Li’s face changed drastically.
Initially, she hesitated from afar because she thought the Sect Master and others might be on this spaceship. Now certain the Sect Master wasn’t here, she immediately grew anxious.
If she had known earlier that the Sect Master was not here, she might not have come at all. Because she might bring Zhao Tianmei and Liu Lixue massive trouble, or even disaster.
"Senior Sister, what’s going on?" Liu Lixue also realized Ying Li’s abnormality.
"There’s no time to explain!"
"Senior sisters, I must leave now, otherwise it’ll be too late." Ying Li said as she prepared to leave the spaceship.
"Senior Sister Ying Li, what happened? Did you really encounter trouble in Black Sun City?" Liu Lixue asked quickly.
"Yes, I bought something earlier and offended an important figure. That person is likely to be pursuing me. If I’m found with you, you’ll be implicated as well." Ying Li spoke as she flew off the spaceship.
"Senior Sister, who is that important figure? Could it be they would disregard even the face of our Divine Woman Sect?" Zhao Tianmei shouted towards the rapidly departing Ying Li.
"It’s the Viper Emperor!" Ying Li’s voice drifted back from afar.
Upon hearing this name, Zhao Tianmei and Liu Lixue’s faces abruptly changed. They were certainly not unfamiliar with the name Viper.
