Doomsday: Gain experience by hunting

Tang Wen held the kitten in his arms, floating down from the air into the yard.

Although he was a top-tier extraordinary individual, he didn't possess the ability to fly.

[Extraordinary Ability: Darkness (Awakening Progress 79.33%)]

At this moment, flying was entirely dependent on the cat in his arms.

"Who's there?" the woman asked, lowering her voice and making it rough.

Tang Wen didn't bother to hide; he strode towards the house door while announcing his name.

The person inside was taken aback, then said, "I don't know any Tang Wen! Leave quickly, or I'll shout for help!"

Tang Wen: "Oh? Is there anyone in Gushan City who doesn't know me? Stop pretending; I mean no harm."

After speaking, a layer of gauze seemed to envelop the dark courtyard.

Concealment Art.

The woman glanced at the sky suspiciously but didn't notice anything.

Tang Wen waved his hand: "Don't worry, no one can hear us talking."

The woman was dubious, suddenly placing her hands around her mouth and shouting, "Help! Help! Help!"

The smile on Tang Wen's face gradually disappeared as he looked speechlessly at the woman before him.

She shouted a few times.

The woman stopped, waiting silently for a few breaths.

Outside, all was quiet.

"They really can't hear outside," the woman said, relieved.

"What's going on with you people from the Feng family?" Tang Wen asked directly.

"Well, one day, she sent me a message, asking me to seek help from you, but when I inquired on the street, I found out you were in seclusion. Only tonight did I hear that you had come out of seclusion."

Upon hearing this, Tang Wen sighed inwardly: "How many days has it been since she came to you?"

The woman counted on her fingers: "Today is the fifth day. Is there still hope?"

Tang Wen couldn't figure out the relationship between the woman before him and Feng Sanniang.

If she was a confidante, she would be anxious and sad about Feng Sanniang's disappearance.

If she wasn't a confidante, why would she place her hopes of rescue on her?

"Who took her away?"

"I don't know."

"How did she send the message? Do you still have the paper?" Tang Wen asked, staring into her eyes.

Perhaps he could track Feng Sanniang through the paper.

"Uh," sensing Tang Wen's seriousness, the woman reached out and pulled the hairpin from her head.

"I burned the note; she hid the note in the hairpin for me."

The woman's eyes flickered slightly as she handed over the hairpin.

Tang Wen said, "You better tell the truth."

His gaze was calm, with a faint glint in his eyes.

The pressure of his mental power spread out.

The woman couldn't withstand the pressure, retreating several steps before saying helplessly, "It was a spider."

"A mutated spider?"

Tang Wen had seen it that night.

The woman was taken aback, glancing at Tang Wen again; although she didn't speak, the meaning in her eyes was clear: you really have something going on with her.

"Speak!" The whites of Tang Wen's eyes were gradually consumed by black.

This was a sign of using a mental power secret technique.

Sensing danger, the woman shuddered, explaining everything in detail: "It was brought by the spider."

"And then?"

Tang Wen's eyes were completely covered in black.

Cold and ruthless, with a hint of killing intent.

The woman spoke like pouring beans from a bamboo tube: "That mutated spider is here with me!"

"Hmm?"

How could Feng Sanniang's trump card pet stay with someone else?

Even if its master was in a bad situation, it should stay by her side.

The woman quickly explained, "Besides being a martial artist, I'm also an apothecary. I can use food to attract that mutated spider. That's why it came to me."

This explanation was barely acceptable.

Tang Wen sneered: "Apothecary? More like a poison master!"

The status of an apothecary was very high, even higher than that of an ordinary guard captain in major forces.

Being an apothecary was much better than being a courtesan in the Chunfeng Pavilion.

The woman's expression changed: "I've never harmed anyone!"

"As long as you haven't lied, you won't have to live this life of hiding once I find Sanniang."

The woman's face went from surprise to joy: "Is the young master willing to protect me? I can not only refine poisons, but the men who come to the brothel can last half an hour after taking the medicine I make."

Tang Wen scolded, annoyed: "...Do you think I need that kind of medicine?"

The woman smiled, covering her mouth: "Yes, yes, you don't need it."

But her eyes were full of laughter: Sure enough, men are all the same; who would admit they're bad in that area!

Tang Wen suddenly felt underestimated; if he wasn't in a hurry to save Feng Sanniang, he would definitely make her beg for mercy three times tonight!

No!

At least ten times.

"Where's the spider? Bring it out!"

The woman waved her hands repeatedly: "The spider is intoxicated by me; I'm afraid it won't wake up for a while."

Tang Wen had no choice but to follow the woman into the inner room.

Watching her carefully take out a glass jar from a hidden compartment in the bedroom.

"Young master, please be careful; this mutated spider is not only highly venomous but also has combat power no less than that of an extraordinary individual. If it weren't for its greed for the pills and medicinal materials here, I definitely wouldn't be able to keep it."

Simply taking the jar out and placing it by the bed, a thin layer of cold sweat had already appeared on her forehead.

This was normal, after all, she was just an ordinary martial artist.

Even if she was a peak martial artist.

She was no match for the mutated spider at all.

The woman placed the jar down, taking two steps back: "Young Master Tang Wen must be careful."

Tang Wen stepped forward, flicking his finger; the sound of air being pierced rang out, and the glass jar shattered.

The spider inside was startled, shaking its eight spider legs, slowly standing up.

The woman was shocked: "Not good! Young master, you're too reckless; leave first, and I'll appease it!"

Tang Wen glanced at her, reaching out to grab, and invisible mental power enveloped the spider.

The spider, still intoxicated, was startled.

Black mist spread around it.

Seeing the mist, the woman's quietly approaching footsteps came to an abrupt halt, her face paling as she quickly retreated.

"Young master, be careful!"

[Stillness: Dissipate killing intent]

Tang Wen's eyes flashed with some kind of strange hieroglyphics.

The mutated spider, originally charging around, wanting to break through the mental power restraints, suddenly quieted down.

"Squeak."

The spider froze in place.

The woman's eyes were full of disbelief: "How could this be? Is this spider possessed?"

[Mental Soothing]

Buzz~

Mental power vibrated.

The spider turned its eight legs, turning its head to look at Tang Wen.

In its cold compound eyes, a hint of doubt seemed to pass: why does this guy look so pleasing to the eye?

Buzz, buzz buzz

Three mental soothings slammed down.

Ignoring the mental power restraints, the spider tried to crawl towards Tang Wen's location.

The woman opened her mouth wide.

Like a puppet, stiffly turning her head, watching the spider crawl all the way until it climbed onto Tang Wen's palm.

And on Tang Wen's palm, at some point, he had put on a thick glove made of exotic animal skin.

The woman subconsciously wanted to say: The aura of other exotic animals will stimulate it.

But thinking of the mutated spider's performance, she opened her mouth, saying nothing, just staring expectantly at Tang Wen.

The latter, sensing her gaze, looked at the spider in his palm, casually asking, "Do you need this spider's venom?"

"Yes, yes! Some leg hair and spider silk would be even better!" the woman nodded repeatedly, looking at Tang Wen with envy.

The bitterness in her heart was no less than waking up at three in the morning to sell "umbrellas" and "contraceptives" to the goddess and delivering a big meal to the hotel for a licking dog.

She carefully served the mutated spider, offering it all kinds of precious medicinal materials.

Pills accumulated over many years were given away like they were free.

And yet?

She didn't even dare to touch it.

But Tang Wen forcibly woke it up from its sleep upon meeting it!

And instantly soothed its emotions.

Then, it climbed onto Tang Wen's glove exceptionally proactively, exceptionally obedient.

The woman painfully closed her eyes.

A man personally witnessing his goddess licking another man, heartbreak was nothing more than this.

"Alright, can you sense your master?"

The latest novels are first published on Liu Jiu Shu Ba!

"Squeak squeak! (You are my master)"

Tang Wen clearly felt the mutated spider's thoughts.

"It's your mistress."

"Squeak? (I don't have a mistress)"

It seemed that although the mutated spider had reached the extraordinary level in terms of toxicity and ability, its IQ couldn't keep up at all.

Tang Wen communicated for a while, then took the spider back to Feng Sanniang's small building.

It was hard to make the IQ-challenged thing understand who to look for!

"Squeak squeak (Follow me)"

Tang Wen rode Tiger Seven, with the white kitten sitting on his shoulder and a spider crawling on his left hand.

The spider, like a compass, constantly adjusted the direction of its head on his glove.

Tang Wen followed its guidance, flying all the way into the city.

Inside the city, the buildings belonging to the Chamber of Commerce were connected in a continuous stretch.

In the most central small square of the entire building complex.

Four hollow copper pillars were filled with lamp oil, and the flames burned fiercely, the copper pillars were bright red and purple, very festive.

On the wooden lampstands temporarily erected in the square, round stones were hung.

Those who have been underground know that these things are fluorite.

Fluorite emits bright and soft light, like a full moon night, illuminating this small world brightly.

"Hall Master Zhao, Gang Leader Shui, Family Head Lu, Family Head Chen... everyone, thank you for attending my daughter Sanniang's engagement banquet! My future in-law, Third Master Huang, and I will toast everyone."

The president of the Chamber of Commerce and Huang San raised their glasses slightly, then drank them in one gulp.

Everyone's expressions were normal, neither happy nor sad, exceptionally calm.

Feng Sanniang, the adopted daughter of the president of the Chamber of Commerce, was going to marry Huang San's son, a good-for-nothing extraordinary individual who indulged in eating, drinking, gambling, and all kinds of vices!

This was not a small matter.

Once the two families were really married, their relationship would inevitably become closer.

What?

Was the Chamber of Commerce going to lean towards the Huang family?

In addition, today's engagement banquet was also sudden.

Logically speaking, the bride was Feng Sanniang, whose beauty moved thousands of miles, the adopted daughter of the president of the Chamber of Commerce, a Chamber of Commerce with extraordinary talent, and one of the few successors.

Almost equivalent to the identity of the Blackwater Gang's young master.

The groom was Huang San's eldest son.

Huang San was one of the actual power holders of the Huang family.

With such status, he had already married a wife.

The wife's identity was not bad for ordinary people.

But in front of the Huang family, in front of the Chamber of Commerce, it was nothing.

Feng Sanniang marrying over would inevitably be the main wife, the first wife.

With such identities of the bride and groom, the engagement banquet should naturally be held in a grand manner!

Not to mention celebrating with the whole city, this engagement banquet should be more grand, at least half a month in advance to send invitations to the heads of various forces. Let's have a lively and well-organized event.

Shui Qianjun, Zhao, the master of the Juyan Martial Arts School, and Chen, the head of the Chen family, secretly exchanged messages.

They all received the invitations only yesterday.

The president of the Chamber of Commerce and Huang San also said on the invitation that today was just an engagement, and they invited everyone to be a witness.

The implication was not to bring too many people.

This sentence was fine if it wasn't added, but once it was said, it made the banquet seem like a bad one.

Shui Qianjun and others did not dare to neglect, not only making the gang internally loose and externally tight.

They also brought the best fifth-grade experts from each family.

As a result, when they arrived, it seemed like they were just drinking, eating, and talking about their children's marriage.

Things were strange everywhere.

Shui Qianjun, Hall Master Zhao, and others were not in the mood to drink.

They waited patiently, to see what medicine the Huang family and the Chamber of Commerce were selling in their gourds.

As a result, waiting and waiting, Huang San and the president of the Chamber of Commerce did not mention anything else. They just persuaded them to drink with smiling faces.

Shi Lei couldn't hold back, and after exchanging a few words with the others, he said, "Congratulations to you two old brothers, for each filling a good daughter-in-law and a good son-in-law! We've been drinking this wine for most of the night, shouldn't we meet the two juniors?"

Everyone nodded: "Old Shi is right, it's time to meet Sanniang and nephew Huang."

Yes!

Stop talking nonsense.

Everyone is a thousand-year-old fox, what are you playing Liao Zhai here?

If you have anything to say, hurry up and say it.

I've been guessing all night.

The president of the Chamber of Commerce refused without showing any emotion: "What's so good about seeing the two juniors? Third Master Huang and I are just using this as an excuse to meet and drink with you."

Huang San also said: "Yes! All of you are busy people among busy people, usually either practicing martial arts or being entangled in secular affairs, it's rare to have the opportunity to drink! Come, come, bring more wine!"

A pair of servants entered in a line, each holding a wine vat more than half a meter high in their hands.

"Come, drink!"

Huang San and the president of the Chamber of Commerce laughed secretly in their hearts: These guys are probably guessing in their hearts!

Hehe, let them think!

In fact, the two of them called the city's senior leaders.

There was really no other meaning, just to be a witness.

But not for their children, but for themselves.

Now the situation in Gushan City is very clear.

The Huang family, and the forces composed of the Blackwater Gang, the Juyan Martial Arts School, and the Chen family, are faintly contending.

The president of the Chamber of Commerce was originally a fence-sitter, even leaning more towards the Blackwater Gang.

But after today, everyone knew that the Gushan City Chamber of Commerce, at least the forces controlled by the president of the Chamber of Commerce, would completely lean towards the Huang family.

Since ancient times, marriage, marriage between heirs, has been a symbol of the binding of mutual interests!

And what the president of the Chamber of Commerce really wanted was to share a huge secret hidden in Huang's family's "flesh factory".

To this end, he spared no expense, selling his adopted daughter and throwing himself into the Huang family. His sincerity could not be said to be insufficient.

After the wedding, if the Huang family did not give him the agreed share, the effect would be equally terrible after he turned his face.

Look, the Huang family is so unreliable that they can't even win over their own in-laws.

Who in the city, leaning towards neutrality and sitting on the fence, would dare to follow the Huang family?

Shui Qianjun, Zhao Chuang, and other sophisticated people remained calm.

Drinking is drinking, clinking glasses and drinking!

Shi Lei and the others, with their straightforward tempers, showed impatience on their faces.

Drink?

Where can't I drink? Do I need to drink with you two old geezers?

And drinking so plainly, without even a singer.

"Something's not right ahead."

Tiger Seven stopped at the edge of the small square.

Hearing this, Tang Wen was alarmed.

Tiger Seven is at the peak of the Fifth Rank. If it says something's wrong, the problem is likely significant.

"What do you mean?"

"I sense several Fifth Rank cultivators ahead, not deliberately concealing their presence."

"Twenty-one," Tang Wen grabbed the dozing cat from his arms and threw it out: "Go, gather reinforcements! Third Madam Feng, I'm determined to have you, I'm determined to save you!"
