#23 - Dog eyes look down on people
Jun Wuxie rushed towards Phoenix Sky City without stopping.
He felt very sad and full of self-blame.
For half a year, he didn't know anything about Yue Yao's condition.
When she had attacks before, she must have been hiding in places he couldn't see, enduring the pain and suffering alone!
"She is very strong," the mysterious woman said. "The cold is bone-chilling, but her internal organs are like being burned by flames. The pain she endured is not much less than the torment you suffered in the Soldier's Tomb."
"Senior, what exactly is wrong with Yue Yao's body? How can she endure the poison of ice and fire at the same time!"
Jun Wuxie couldn't imagine how she had survived as a child.
"Her condition, simply put, is a symptom caused by the imbalance of Yin and Yang energies. Of course, ordinary people with Yin and Yang imbalances would not be so painful, but she is not ordinary."
"Senior means that this is related to Yue Yao's bloodline and physique?"
"It has nothing to do with bloodline or physique, but she is missing something."
"Missing what?"
"Don't ask, you don't need to know these things at the moment. What you need to do now is to obtain the Harmony Fruit, and then find a physician of at least four stars or above to treat her within a month to prolong her life."
Jun Wuxie didn't ask any more questions. Just as the mysterious woman said, the most important thing now is to save Yue Yao, and nothing else matters!
"Let the carriage run on its own. You have reached the extreme point of breakthrough. Quickly come in and cultivate, and heal your injuries at the same time."
"Okay!"
Jun Wuxie entered the Eternal Divine Palace again, took the Lesser Spirit Pill, and while healing his injuries, he attacked the realm.
His injuries had not yet recovered. If he entered Phoenix Sky City like this, it would not be a wise move.
He had encountered two batches of people who wanted to kill him.
The first batch was the mercenaries sent by Yuan Ji.
The second batch had no murderous aura and had a very high realm. They should be related to Chekhov.
Phoenix Sky City was definitely not a friendly place for him.
If he couldn't even guarantee his own safety, how could he save Yue Yao?
...
Just as Jun Wuxie was driving wildly towards Phoenix Sky City, a group of people came to that dilapidated temple.
The leader was Chekhov and a middle-aged man with a pale face.
Seeing the female corpse beside the extinguished bonfire, the middle-aged man trembled all over, his eyes bloodshot.
"Qing'er!"
The middle-aged man's voice was dry and slightly choked, and he blasted a hole in the temple wall with a palm!
"Patriarch, please accept our condolences."
An old man with a pale face and a missing arm stepped forward to comfort him.
"Wen Hai!"
The middle-aged man turned around abruptly, his eyes blood-red, and kicked the old man with the broken arm away.
This damned Fifth Elder actually abandoned his daughter and fled alone!
"Patriarch Wen Yue, I express my regret for the death of your daughter," Chekhov said. "In order to compensate for your loss, I promise that as long as you kill Jun Wuxie, I will give the Wen family two additional Great River Selection Tokens!"
"That Jun Wuxie is just a Houtian Realm martial artist, how could he be so strong!" Wen Yue forcibly suppressed the grief in his heart and said, "Even if he cultivates both body and sword, he should not be a match for Wen Hai!"
"This person does have extraordinary abilities. Elder Wen Hai must have been careless," Chekhov said in a deep voice. "Now, your Wen family has already formed a feud with him. If he doesn't die, he will definitely bring disaster to your Wen family in the future."
"He will definitely die!" Fifth Elder Wen Hai struggled to his feet, looking at his broken arm, his face twisted with hatred: "Phoenix Sky City is his burial ground. Our dignified Wen family will crush him to death on our own territory, just like crushing an ant!"
"Very good, then I will wait for your good news. By the way, remember to cut off his head and send it to me."
After Chekhov finished speaking, he turned and left. After walking out of the dilapidated temple, a sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"That Xiao Xu was originally an envoy of destiny. The future destiny of the Xiao clan will be furious knowing that their envoy was killed, right? I will keep Jun Wuxie's head and present it with both hands at that time. Maybe I can take this opportunity to cling to that destiny and achieve great success!"
Chekhov was making his own wishful calculations in his heart and disappeared into the night.
...
The next morning.
A carriage galloped on the official road.
The owner of the carriage was lying in the Eternal Divine Palace, panting.
Jun Wuxie was exhausted, and his bones were about to fall apart.
After he broke through to the Second Transformation of Houtian Realm in the middle of the night, he began to practice against the phantom.
The result… was miserable!
In the words of the mysterious woman, his body was a weapon, and the weapon needed to be forged. Therefore, the phantom she simulated evolved various heavy weapons with the intent of soldiers and bombarded him inhumanly!
"This method does have some effect. Your blood energy is now more condensed than before. You should use this method to temper yourself more in the future."
Jun Wuxie protested, but was thrown out by the mysterious woman.
At noon.
The road gradually widened.
A magnificent city appeared at the end of the horizon.
The city wall was more than ten feet high, built of bluestone, and covered with traces left by the war, telling the world about the vicissitudes it had experienced.
"Phoenix Sky City!"
Jun Wuxie couldn't wait. Yue Yao was unconscious, enduring the poison of ice and fire, and her body was constantly convulsing. The longer the time, the greater the damage to her body!
He drove the carriage into the city, inquired about the location of Jubaozhai along the way, and rushed to the front of Jubaozhai.
There was a large square in front of Jubaozhai, which was divided into a special area for parking vehicles, and someone was guarding it.
"That's good. I'll go buy medicine and let Yue Yao stay in the car. With a guard, I can rest assured."
After thinking for a while, Jun Wuxie drove forward, but was stopped at the entrance.
"There is no space inside, park elsewhere." Two guards blocked the carriage, glanced at Jun Wuxie who was driving, and said, "Go away quickly."
"Isn't there still space inside?" Jun Wuxie glanced at it, pointed to the empty parking space, and said, "Isn't that place empty?"
"That space is reserved for Young Master Wen, don't mess around here." The guard waved his hand impatiently and said, "Young Master Wen is the young master of the Wen family in our Phoenix Sky City. Do you want to compete with him for a parking space?"
Wen family?
A cold light flashed in Jun Wuxie's eyes.
It seemed that this Wen family should be the family of the old man and woman last night.
"Could it be that your parking spaces here are specifically divided for the big families in the city?" Jun Wuxie was a little uncertain. There was no such thing in Qingyang City.
"No." The guard glanced at Jun Wuxie, slightly mockingly: "Young Master Wen will come to buy resources today, and there is only one parking space left, so naturally it must be reserved for him. Young Master Wen is our distinguished guest, and you are wearing cheap clothes, probably from the countryside or a small city, right? I advise you to be sensible, otherwise, hey!"
"So you are taking it upon yourselves?" Jun Wuxie's eyes turned cold, and he drove the carriage in, saying, "Get out of the way!"
"Bumpkin, how dare you act wildly in our Jubaozhai?"
The faces of the two guards turned cold. They were about to dodge, but they were a step too slow and were knocked away, falling heavily five or six meters away, spitting blood.
At this moment, a woman rushed over with two guards.
"Take him down!"
The woman's face was cold. She glanced at Jun Wuxie and gave orders to the guards.
"Wait!"
Jun Wuxie didn't want to waste time entangled with them, and showed the bronze VIP card, saying, "Your Jubaozhai is really bullying customers. Even the car watchers don't take VIPs seriously. Are you blind?"
"This…"
The woman's expression changed slightly when she saw the bronze VIP card.
"Young Master, I apologize for the offense just now!" She apologized to Jun Wuxie, then stared coldly at the two guards lying on the ground, and said in a deep voice, "What exactly is going on?"
