Meng Qi: "..."

Considering that Ji Wujiong had given her the precious formula, she responded politely: "What kind of array did you use against Pavilion Master Pei?"

"Haha." Ji Wujiong raised his eyebrows as his lips curled slightly into an almost indiscernible smile. He walked on Meng Qi's right side, and when she glanced up at him, what she saw was his unblemished left face.

When a smile spread on the handsome face that wasn't covered by scars, even the gloominess in his eyes seemed to dissipate a lot.

Meng Qi quickly withdrew her gaze as she heard Ji Wujiong spoke again: "That Xingluo Pavilion's guy is indeed very strong, but also overly serious and stubborn. I merely created two small arrays and summoned an illusion of a few beautiful women to surround him, and he completely stopped moving." He paused. "The array I used is called Red Sleeve Killer. 'Red sleeves add fragrance,' having beauties by your side is blissful, but they give you a fatal blow when you are most off guard..."

Meng Qi's heart tightened. She subconsciously asked: "Then?"

"Don't worry." Ji Wujiong glanced at her lightly, seemingly guessed her worry. He added in a casual tone: "That kid had trained his sword until it becomes a sword spirit. Although the sword spirit is still very weak, it was enough to protect him. He is now intoxicated in the blissful paradise, but as long as he maintains a little sobriety and doesn't totally drown himself in the illusion, he won't die."

Meng Qi felt relieved, but then she snorted. After being together for a few days, she had a little understanding of Ji Wujiong's habit of bragging. From the way he talked, she could guess that this guy was unable to kill Pei Mufeng but deliberately spoke nonchalantly, as if he had been merciful on purpose.

"That's because Pavilion Master Pei is a gentleman." Meng Qi said coldly. After getting along for two days, she was no longer as scared of Ji Wujiong as she had been at the beginning. Anyway, this man at least had to wait until they left this barrier before he could take any action against her.

Ji Wujiong was very knowledgeable. Although he had a habit of being sarcastic, he could narrate so well. Listening to his stories was far more interesting than listening to the noisy fox's endless gossip of various big figures of the Demon Realm.

"Heh—" Ji Wujiong sneered, "I don't know if he is a gentleman or not. But compared with those hypocritical old fossils, he is indeed decent enough. Three Thousand Worlds is too messy. It needs more decent people to purify the air so it won't be too stinky." He paused again. "Do you want to learn Red Sleeves Killer array?"

"No." Meng Qi refused without hesitation.

As the two talked, they followed the path by the water pool, bypassed the waterfall, and arrived at the other side of the mountain. The sound of the majestic waterfall came across a mountain, almost earth-shatteringly. The paradise-like place just now seemed to harbor no danger at all, as if it was deliberately prepared so that they could take a breather.

Meng Qi stood on the mountain as she looked into the distance. On the foot of the mountain was a small town. It was not big, only slightly larger than Qingfeng Town where Meng Qi had lived before. Watching from a bird-eye view, she could see the entirety of the town at once.

The town had a total of eight separated main streets; four verticals and four horizontals. Tall buildings lined up on both sides of the streets. From her position, Meng Qi could even see people coming and going on the streets.

Meng Qi turned her head and exchanged a glance with Ji Wujiong.

"This barrier's array..." Ji Wujiong quickly looked at the town again, "...is indeed pretty good!" Even the usually sarcastic guy couldn't help but murmur in appreciation.
