Celestial Master： I Have an Otherworld-Chapter 196 - 74: Overnight Fortune (Part 4)

"It's the Acupoint Opening Pearl!"

"The magical artifact Acupoint Opening Pearl!"

He roared loudly, saying:

"The treasure that Miss brought to trade with a Mage is worth more than a thousand gold, it is the most precious here. I'm not lying, I really am not lying."

Acupoint Opening Pearl?

Fang Zheng found a pearl resembling a Luminous Pearl, and played with it carefully in front of his eyes:

"How do you use it?"

"Ah!"

Shopkeeper Ba screamed miserably:

"Fang Zheng, you won't die a good death!"

"No need for your concerns." Fang Zheng's expression was calm, releasing the grip on the opponent's knee:

"If Shopkeeper Ba's answer can't satisfy me, I can assure you, you absolutely won't feel comfortable today."

"Ah!"

By now, Shopkeeper Ba also realized that the other party would never let him go, and couldn't help but curse angrily:

"Fang, do you think you can escape? These items all bear the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion's mark. No matter where you escape to, Miss can find you."

"You will die too!"

"You're doomed!"

"Oh, is that so?" Fang Zheng squinted his eyes, emitting a cold light:

"Shopkeeper Ba has quite the momentum, still daring to threaten me at this juncture. I wonder if you can endure the Tendon-Separating Bone-Dislocating Technique I've just learned."

Some time later.

Shopkeeper Ba finally swallowed his last breath.

"Without the Truth Serum, it's troublesome."

Fang Zheng packed up the items, shaking his head lightly:

"Even if the information extracted is hard to distinguish between truth and falsehood, it's definitely a great haul. No wonder people often say, 'A man will not get wealthy without unexpected wealth, nor will a horse get fat without night grazing.'"

"Time to go!"

......

"Clang clang clang..."

The sounds of collision continued endlessly.

Du Qiaoyun wielded her Soft Sword, frantically defending against attacks from all directions. Just as she broke through the encirclement, a sharp blade appeared from nowhere and slashed across her leg.

"Ah!"

She screamed in agony, stumbling to the ground.

The moment she fell, instinctively she protected her bulging belly.

"Haha..."

"Kill!"

The villains laughed wildly, swinging their blades down mercilessly.

Being a woman, Du Qiaoyun was naturally less strong compared to men, not to mention she was pregnant and her Qi and Blood were insufficient. She barely blocked two strikes before her arms went numb.

It's over!

Despair filled her eyes as she grasped her belly, her hands showing bulging veins.

The child hasn't been born yet, hasn't had the chance to see this world...

I'm not willing!

"Puff!"

Just as the Long Saber was about to strike down, a piece of the blade suddenly appeared at the villain's heart, freezing his body in place, his Long Saber clanging to the ground.

"Miss Du."

Fang Zheng swung his saber, sending away several approaching foes, looking down:

"Are you alright?"

"Young Master Fang." Du Qiaoyun looked confused, obviously still recovering from the euphoria of being saved, and instinctively replied:

"I'm fine."

"Where's Elder Du?"

"..." Du Qiaoyun's eyes dimmed, her body trembling slightly.

"Alas." Fang Zheng sighed softly:

"Let's get out of here first and talk later."

Du Sheng was already gravely injured with little time left; the likelihood of surviving was extremely slim under such circumstances, so the outcome was predictable.

Shielding Du Qiaoyun as they broke through the encirclement, he casually asked:

"Where's Brother Che?"

"We got separated by the Evil Cult Demons." Du Qiaoyun looked back, only to see Pan She Martial Arts Hall engulfed in roaring flames, feeling a pang of sadness in her heart.

Twenty years of memories...

Gone just like that!

"Separated?" Fang Zheng snorted lightly:

"Didn't he promise to take care of you?"

"He tried his best." Du Qiaoyun shook her head:

"It's my fault for being useless and holding him back."

"If you weren't pregnant, you might have reached Three Blood. It's uncertain who's holding whom back." Fang Zheng shook his head:

"Forget it; now's not the time to discuss this."

"Let's go!"

The closer they got to the outskirts of the county, the less chaos there was, and the shouts and killing gradually faded away.

"Up ahead is Xielou Lane."

Fang Zheng stopped, looking back:

"Miss Du, you know my old place, Wu Hai and the others are all there. The nearby courtyards are empty; you just need to head there later."

"What?" Du Qiaoyun looked confused:

"Young Master Fang isn't coming back?"

"I have some issues that aren't resolved yet; I can't go back for now." Fang Zheng shook his head, thought for a moment, then took out some silver taels and handed them to Du Qiaoyun:

"Take this silver; in case you run out of food, you can find a way to buy some more."

"Young Master Fang." Du Qiaoyun grabbed Fang Zheng's wrist with concern in her eyes:

"When will you be back?"

"This..." Fang Zheng hesitated briefly:

"As soon as possible."

"I'm leaving."

With that, he broke free and dashed into the darkness, finding a deserted place, and chose to traverse back to the modern world directly.

No matter how intricate the methods of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion were, he didn't believe they could pursue him there.
