Book of Disaster

"Huh, it seems that you already know who I am."

Seeing Shangguan Ziling's reaction, Bai Qi immediately knew that his judgment was correct.

Shangguan Ziling was so hostile towards Xu Xuansu, how could she not know the people around her? When she appeared before, she was probably pretending not to know her.

Shangguan Ziling bit her lips tightly, her whole body shaking with anger. However, she stared at the sword on Bai Qi's waist and Bai Qi's cold eyes, wanting to say something but stopping herself. Given her temper, it was rare for her to talk back to Bai Qi.

When you first become a saint, you kill the saint!

With the death of Zhao Xuanyi, Bai Qi's sword of saint-slaying became known to the world.

Although Shangguan Ziling has always been arrogant and calls herself a favored girl of heaven, she also knows that she is no match for Bai Qi.

——Her greatest pride and reliance is that she has condensed the destiny star and achieved the status of Martial Saint. If she is weakened by Bai Qi and falls to the Quasi-Saint realm, what can she use to fight Xu Xuansu?

In all likelihood, you will be humiliated.

However, Shangguan Ziling was flexible and soon came to her senses.

"Bai Qi, I admire you. I am indeed no match for you. However, this is a private matter between me and the God of War Palace. I hope General Bai will not interfere."

Shangguan Ziling said this with a sharp tone, and glanced at Xu Xuansu behind Bai Qi:

"Humph, I never thought that the dignified God of War Mansion could only rely on men. How shameful! - Let's go!"

After saying this, he left with everyone without looking back.

With Bai Qi around, she knew she was doomed to suffer, and there was no point in staying.

However, just as he passed by Xu Xuansu, Shangguan Ziling stopped, moved his lips slightly, and seemed to say something to Xu Xuansu, who looked slightly gloomy.

However, Shangguan Ziling held his head high and flicked his sleeves:

"go!"

This time the departure was clean and without any delay.

"What did she say?"

Bai Qi stepped forward and asked.

"nothing."

Xu Xuansu shook his head, but a trace of gloom flashed across his brows.

Bai Qi had some idea in mind, but after looking at Xu Xuansu's expression, he did not expose it.

"Sir, Miss Xu..."

At this moment, a voice came from his ears, and even Zhang Chi noticed that something was wrong with Xu Xuansu.

"It's enough for you and me to know it. You don't have to say it."

Bai Qi said in a deep voice through his mental power.

"Ah."

Zhang Chi nodded.

Even he could see that Shangguan Ziling, who came from nowhere, had dealt a heavy blow to Xu Xuansu.

You know, in the capital, Xu Xuansu is recognized as a favored girl of heaven. She had achieved the second transformation of her martial soul at an early age and obtained the Suzaku martial soul. Even the Black Dragon acknowledged the intensity of her flames.

But Shangguan Ziling, who looked about the same age as Xu Xuansu, or even a little younger, had already achieved the fourth level of martial soul transformation at an early stage, directly becoming a quasi-emperor-level martial soul, and he also made a quick ascension to success, condensing his destiny star and becoming a martial saint.

You know, among everyone, even Bai Qi, who has the strongest strength, only successfully became a Martial Saint more than a month ago.

Judging from Shangguan Ziling's situation, she was probably able to succeed in becoming a Martial Saint much earlier than Bai Qi.

Not to mention that the two of them are old acquaintances. Even someone like Xu Xuansu rarely admits that the other is his mortal enemy.

Bai Qi also glanced at Xu Xuansu at this time, and the latter was obviously distracted.

But Bai Qi didn't point it out.

"Martial Saint!"

Bai Qi sighed in his heart.

Xu Xuansu reached the peak of Quasi-Saint early on, but was unable to break through that bottleneck, condense his own destiny star, and become a Martial Saint.

This is probably her biggest concern.

Although there is only a thin layer of film between the peak of Quasi-Saint and Martial Saint, this thin layer of film is the difference between heaven and earth.

The reason why Bai Qi intervened and stopped Xu Xuansu and Shangguan Ziling from continuing to fight was also because of this reason.

"Hahaha."

Just when the atmosphere was becoming a little depressing, suddenly, a burst of laughter broke the silence.

Outside the hall, accompanied by a hearty laugh, a figure dressed as a military general, with a tall and straight figure, stepped over the threshold, and strode towards Bai Qi and others with several officers and soldiers.

"This should be Mr. Bai, and Miss Xu... I am Hao Qianyu, the deputy general of Daqian Fort. I am sorry that I have not taken good care of you. Please bear with me."

As he spoke, he bowed and stepped forward with a very friendly attitude, which was completely different from the coldness and hostility that everyone had felt in Daqian Fort before. It made people feel like they were in the spring breeze.

His eyes fixed on the cold tea on the table and he immediately shouted.

"How dare you! I told you to treat Mr. Bai and Miss Xu well, but what did you do? You actually dared to use cold tea and cold water to treat our distinguished guests. You are so bold! Why don't you leave now!"

"Yes, yes, I know I was wrong."

The guards standing in the hall apologized politely and quickly took the tray away.

In just a moment, eight guards rushed into the hall. The best hot tea and a table full of cakes were piled on the table. Because there was not enough space, they even moved in a few square tables and lit a charcoal fire in the hall.

Even Xu Xuansu came back to his senses at this time. Several people looked at each other, then pondered in silence, and no one knew what Daqianbao was up to.

"General Hao, have you received the orders from the court and the military?"

In the end, it was Bai Qi who spoke.

Although he was granted the title of General Wu'an, the man in front of him was the deputy general of Daqian Fort, so his status was similar. The two were colleagues, and there was no distinction between superiors and subordinates or equal authority.

"received."

Hao Qianyu's face was full of smiles and her attitude was very enthusiastic:

"To be honest, during the Bloody Month in the capital, the Daqian Fort frontline base was also criticized. Lord Xiao entered the new world long before you all to explore the Eye of the Abyss. However, a little accident happened there, and Lord Xiao needed to practice in seclusion to eliminate the hidden illness in his body, so he specially arranged for me to come and entertain you all."

Bai Qi frowned and said nothing.

He had just arrived in the new world and didn't know the situation here, nor did he know whether what Hao Qianyu said was true or false.

Of course, it wasn’t so easy for Bai Qi to believe the other party.

"What about our mission?"

Bai Qi spoke.

"Don't worry, Mr. Bai. Although the Lord is in seclusion, everything has been arranged properly. We will naturally fully cooperate with the court's affairs."

"Knowing that you are going to investigate the Eye of the Abyss sect in the New World, the Lord carefully selected an elite demon-hunting unit from the army in advance. They are all veterans of many battles and have entered the New World many times and fought against the monsters there. They are very experienced. With their help, the actions of you and Miss Xu should be smoother."

"In addition, I will go there with you and guide you."

"You are new here, so you may not be familiar with the situation inside. I happen to have dealt with the people of the Eye of the Abyss sect several times. Although I have never reached their lair, I know where they will appear."

Hao Qianyu said with a smile on his face.
