Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation-Chapter 366 - 361: Trouble Again
The woman looked Ding Huan up and down with some surprise, and after a full ten breaths of time, she extended her hand, and the attendant’s ring fell into her hand, followed by a Storage Bag appearing the next moment.
"Inside this Storage Bag are two top-grade Spirit Veins, are they yours?" the woman asked Ding Huan.
"That’s right." Ding Huan replied calmly.
He had long been prepared; if a fight started, he would be able to keep everyone here.
He hadn’t expected that in the end, the woman would say something like this.
By saying this, it was clear she didn’t want to start a fight.
"Let’s leave the matter at this, our people were in the wrong. Mr. Ding, please feel free to leave without any further ado." The woman extended her hand, indicating for Ding Huan to depart.
Without the slightest hesitation, Ding Huan turned around and left.
It was only after Ding Huan had left the tea house that the others asked the woman, puzzled, "Captain Dan Yi, why did you let him go?"
The woman’s gaze fell onto the ashen-faced attendant on the ground, and she sighed, "He was short-sighted, this time he encountered a fierce character.
If I’m not mistaken, once we start fighting, more than half of us are going to die before we can keep him here.
Everyone has followed me for so many years, it’s not easy. After Captain Peng’s unfortunate demise, I’m even more unwilling to gamble with everyone’s lives."
Everyone was shocked; there were more than a dozen of them, all seasoned in battle, with not a single weakling among them.
A dozen from the Immortal Bridge level against a guy who seemed not even to reach the Immortal Bridge, and more than half would die?
The woman pointed at the attendant on the ground: "How do you compare with Wei Yidao’s strength?"
"Hah, with his half-baked skills, I could easily take him down," a long-haired man dismissed the attendant on the ground with a disdainful glance.
This Wei Yidao, he had little regard for; the fellow had no real skill, living comfortably only by stealing guests’ Immortal Essence Tea.
The woman said calmly, "That cultivator just now disposed of Wei Yidao with a single punch, and didn’t even bring out his Magical Treasure.
His strength is probably even stronger than mine, what do you think our chances are if we were to fight, would we not suffer heavy losses?"
Amidst the stunned expressions of the crowd, a fair-skinned man said, "Captain Dan Yi, I think if we are to make a move, perhaps our loss would not just be half, but very likely total annihilation."
"Jin Luer, what nonsense are you spouting? There are so many of us, no matter how strong he is, there’s only one of him," a man with a very sturdy build couldn’t help but rebuke loudly.
Even Captain Dan Yi looked at Jin Luer with doubt.
She didn’t want to fight with Ding Huan, the more important reason being that after Captain Peng’s death, she no longer wanted to do these dirty acts.
Jin Luer pointed around and said, "Maybe you don’t know, but around this place, Void Strangling Array Patterns have long been laid out, it’s just that the Strangling Array has not been activated.
This chapt𝒆r is updated by frёewebηovel.cѳm.
If we move against him, he will definitely construct the Strangling Array in an instant. That is merely the first aspect, secondly when he was leaving, he took some talismans with him, I saw them clearly, they are very high-grade."
Hearing this, Captain Dan Yi gasped.
She did not doubt Jin Luer’s words; among their group, Jin Luer was the Array Master.
Even Jin Luer was unable to lay out the Void Array Patterns, indicating that the opponent’s Array Dao was even more formidable than his.
"I was wrong just now; I should have offered him a pot of Immortal Spirit Tea." Captain Dan Yi took a deep breath.
Her mind was no longer on the present; she was thinking about how to get to know Ding Huan again.
Jin Luer smiled, "As long as he’s still in this Void City, we will have plenty of opportunities to befriend him."
Clearly, Jin Luer also thought that Ding Huan was a strong ally worth making.
...
"Mr. Ding..." Jian Zhengyan hadn’t gone far when he saw Ding Huan almost kill the attendant with one punch, and he felt dizzy.
What kind of person was this, who couldn’t even handle this bit of grievance, how could he survive in Void City?
Unfortunately, he got involved in this; if he continues to stay in Void City, his life might be in danger. He must find a way to leave Void City.
But where could he go? With such low cultivation...
While Jian Zhengyan was lost in thought, Ding Huan’s voice interrupted his musings:
"Mr. Jian, I didn’t offer you Immortal Origin Tea earlier, let’s go somewhere else to drink it."
"Mr. Ding, you..." Jian Zhengyan looked at Ding Huan approaching, dumbfounded. Just now he had clearly seen more than a dozen from the Immortal Bridge enter the tea house, including it seemed Chang Danyi; how could Ding Huan be unscathed?
He quickly came to his senses and hurriedly waved his hands, "No need, no need."
Stop joking; drinking that kind of Immortal Essence Tea a few more times, his heart might not be able to take it.
Seeing that Jian Zhengyan was truly frightened, Ding Huan simply handed over the Storage Bag he had just reclaimed to him, saying, "Here are two top-grade Spirit Veins, I’ll give them to you."
Jian Zhengyan accepted the Storage Bag in a daze, noting that Ding Huan was already walking away. He hastily called out from behind, "Mr. Ding, in half a month’s time, the Immortal Domain recruitment will take place, you can try it if you’re interested."
"Thank you." Ding Huan turned and waved his hand; he had been planning to find someone to ask about the Immortal Domain recruitment time, but Jian Zhengyan had preemptively mentioned it.
He was definitely going to stay in this Void City since it was comparatively safe.
However, Void City had no Rest Buildings, so if you wanted to stay here, you had to find a house for yourself or, to put it more accurately, build one yourself.
Ding Huan strolled around and found that there was hardly any spare land in Void City; it was all private cave mansions.
He simply chose a cave mansion that had been uninhabited for a long time, turned it into dust with a wave of his hand, and then took out his own Magical Treasure for establishing a cave mansion.
In this place, if you tried to reason with someone or talk about order, you’d be better off leaving because it wasn’t for you.
Seeing that Ding Huan dared to destroy a cave mansion, some people cautiously kept their distance, not wanting to get involved with him in any way.
For Jian Zhengyan, it was a relief that Chang Danyi had not troubled him but merely asked him a few questions before leaving.
When he heard that Ding Huan had blasted Crazy Wu’s cave mansion, he stood stunned for a long while, then madly dashed out of Void City, instantly disappearing into the distance.
It was better to die in the Void than to be tortured by Crazy Wu. No, this Ding Huan was also a madman.
Caught between such two people, what could he do other than wander the Void?
After moving into the cave mansion, Ding Huan began to deduce.
Unfortunately, his cultivation was still too weak; he hadn’t even transformed his True Yuan into Immortal Essence and couldn’t deduce anything.
To cultivate here would necessarily require top-quality Spirit Veins and Star Sky Spiritual Veins arranged into a Spirit Gathering Array.
The place was full of paupers at the Immortal Bridge Realm, and Ding Huan did not want a bunch of Immortal Bridge folks getting ideas about surrounding him.
After considering for a long while, Ding Huan finally decided to study the talismanic path.
Unable to cultivate or deduce, his only option was to hunker down in his cave mansion and study talismans.
Ding Huan had not considered that by casually blowing up an unused cave mansion in Void City and making it his own, he had offended another ruthless person.
Only a few days into Ding Huan’s talismanic studies, someone knocked at the prohibitions of his cave mansion.
His Divine Will swept out and discovered that it was the woman called Captain Peng from the Void Tea House; he deactivated the Protecting Array.
"Mr. Ding, may I come in and talk?" asked the fierce woman, her demeanor extremely courteous at this moment.
Ding Huan nodded, "Come in."
The woman must have asked Jian Zhengyan for his name.
"Thank you," Captain Peng entered Ding Huan’s cave mansion without any hesitation.
Ding Huan was somewhat appreciative; after all, this was his cave mansion—if he had any intent to kill Captain Peng, he could easily have done it the moment she entered.
"My name is Chang Danyi, and I’ve been in Void City for a hundred and twenty-one years, always seeking a breath of Immortal Spiritual Energy.
Apart from owning a tea house, I often venture into the Void to find seeds of Immortal Essence, which is how I manage to survive," Chang Danyi revealed all about herself as soon as she came in.
It gave the impression that she was straightforward and seemed to harbor no malice or petty intentions.
Ding Huan did not think the same.
Captain Peng must have known that he would not harm her, and that was why she dared to enter his cave mansion.
Firstly, she sought out Jian Zhengyan, and after a brief inquiry had given him two superior Spirit Veins, suggesting he was not a miserly person.
Secondly, perhaps she had a Jutsu Talisman on her that could allow her to escape at any time.
"My name is Ding Huan, and you probably already know that," said Ding Huan in a neutral tone, not convinced Captain Peng wanted to chat and suspecting she needed his help with something.
Chang Danyi replied, "Mr. Ding can just call me by my name. I’m a captain only because I lead some companions in the Void to seek seeds of Immortal Essence."
Ding Huan simply nodded, remaining silent.
Chang Danyi continued, "Are you aware of how dangerous your situation is right now?"
Ding Huan replied with a light smile, "Every day of my life is dangerous. I’m often threatened, but luckily I’ve been fortunate enough to survive until today."
Chang Danyi wasn’t discouraged by Ding Huan’s tone and earnestly said, "The owner of the place you’ve destroyed is called Crazy Wu, and he’s absolutely a battle maniac.
He has the power to enter the Immortal Domain and settle down there, but instead, he chose to stay in Void City..."
"This is his place that I’m living in?" asked Ding Huan.
Chang Danyi nodded, "Yes. However, he won’t spend even a day in Void City for years because he’s always in the Void looking for Immortal Essence seeds.
The fact is, even if he were in Void City, he wouldn’t stay in the place you’re in now, but still, it is his turf.
What do you think he would do if he comes back and finds someone else has blasted his cave mansion and taken over his spot?"
She paused, worried Ding Huan might not believe her, and continued to explain,
"Crazy Wu returns to Void City once every three years, mainly to sell Immortal Essence seeds to Immortal Sects in the Immortal Domain. This year is the time for his return, which should be in just a few days.
Since you’re new to Void City, you may not be aware that among the empty cave mansions here, more than ten thousand were constructed by Wu Hongtian."
Ding Huan laughed, "I guess when he comes back, he’ll want to have a fight with me."
Unconcerned by Ding Huan’s indifference, Chang Danyi’s tone grew more sincere.
"Mr. Ding, the reason people call him Crazy Wu is because of his wild fighting spirit, and his cultivation has broken through the Immortal Bridge, making him a True Immortal powerhouse."
