for her. However, now, she felt bitter as she realized that once she lost this identity, everything was gone; someone who had given her such a high position could also push her down into hell."Perhaps...Chapter 1435: Invisible Crisis WuYou Chinese Network
"Alright, I'll handle this." Mei'er nodded her head. "I'm leaving now, and by the way, I won't be coming back. If you want to find me, go to the Dark Group's base."
Mei'er didn't even wait for Xia Tian's agreement before she disappeared.
Xia Tian couldn't do anything about it either. Mei'er’s ghost-like movement had become more and more proficient over time; in fact, every hour her skills became better, which also increased the power of her movements to a great extent. If she wanted to leave, Xia Tian would have no way to stop her.
Fortunately, Xia Tian didn't need to worry about Mei'er's safety anymore. Moreover, since Mei'er was frequently with Mu Han these days, it indirectly made Mu Han safer as well.
"Now that the ugly woman Nan Gong Yan who likes to devour Golden Core and Spirit Embryo is dead, can I also turn my blonde wife into a Golden Core expert" Xia Tian couldn't help but start thinking about this issue.
If Nan Gong Yan had died at his hands, he would have undoubtedly given Mu Han the fifth miraculous needle without hesitation. However, with what happened in the capital city these few days, it made him feel something was off. Although four disciples of the Ethereal Immortal Sect had died within a short period, Xia Tian didn't personally kill any of them. Of course, if one strictly analyzed the situation, Guan Jianxiong and that Ge Junior Apprentice Brother's deaths could be considered under his control since the latter was killed by Mei'er. As for Guan Jianxiong, although he should have been killed by Nan Gong Yan, it was also part of Xia Tian’s plan.
However, apart from Official Jianxiong and that Ge Ershi, the deaths of Nan Gong Yan and Huaxiang seem rather mysterious. Huaxiang died unexpectedly in front of him while Nan Gong Yan's death was also beyond his expectations. This made Xia Tian feel a hint of danger, an underlying threat.
Initially, Xia Tian thought that things were quite simple: the Immortal Gate of Emei wanted to take Fairy Sister back, but he didn't want her to leave, so he decided to eliminate those people. Although eliminating those twelve individuals required intricate planning, overall, it should have been clear and straightforward. Yet now, he realized that matters were far more complicated than he had thought. Despite having dealt with the majority of Emei's disciples, he felt that things might become even harder.
“If I had known this earlier, I should’ve personally killed that Ge fellow.” Xia Tian began to regret his decision; he was solely focused on clearing his name but forgot about the crucial aspects. If he had dealt with that Ge person himself and hypnotized him, he could have learned more. Now, he knew virtually nothing about the remaining Emei disciples, making things troublesome. For example, currently, apart from waiting for them to come, there seemed to be no other strategy.
After much thought, Xia Tian decided to wait a few days and see how things developed.
This wait lasted three days.
During these three days, Xia Tian stayed in the Iren Pavilion but mostly sat in the pavilion's gazebo. Surprisingly, he didn't try to flirt with Yixiao as usual; at night, he directly slept in the gazebo and never entered her room. This behavior left both Yixiao and Jiu puzzled: had this rogue fallen ill
Of course, despite being confused, they still believed that Xia Tian's current state was beneficial for them. Although Yixiao had mentally prepared herself to give up, it was merely a helpless choice rather than her true desire. Conversely, the present situation suited Yixiao more.
Over these three days, there were some noticeable changes in the capital city. Now, almost everyone knew that Xia Tian was here. Whenever Xia Tian appeared, the city's idle rich would naturally become more restrained; no one wanted to accidentally offend him. Of course, when Xia Tian came to the city, many people started counting the days until he left.
During these three days, there was also a notice posted all over the streets of the capital regarding identification of the deceased. However, Xia Tian waited for three days but no one claimed the body. He believed that if Nie Zixiong was still in the city, he would definitely see this announcement. The fact that he didn’t appear suggested two possibilities: either he dared not show up or he had left the city.
However, Song Weimin's death did not cause much commotion in the capital. The Song family quietly handled his funeral and did not suspect Xia Tian of being involved. It was said that Song Weiguo returned to the capital and secretly investigated it; however, the information he received from the police indicated that Song Weimin had been investigating the case involving Ge (the junior brother) and Guan Jianxiong, which seemed normal on the surface. Additionally, Guan Jianxiong's body was found by the Dark Team and sent to the Song family, providing a complete explanation for Song Weimin.
Qingmei did not return to the capital because she was still on Green Peak Mountain and had no knowledge of what happened.
The original person who requested Song Weimin to investigate the case, Song Zigeng, reportedly committed suicide out of guilt toward the Song family. Whether he truly took his own life or not did not matter since he was a minor figure and nobody cared about him.
Thus, the incident involving Song Weimin's death came to an end. After this event, the upper echelons in the capital began to recognize the importance of the Heavenly Dao Group even more; without them, who would deal with someone like Guan Jianxiong
Of course, Xia Tian was not entirely idle during these three days. Mu Han brought him a satellite photo taken over that building where Nan Gong Yan died, snapped at the time of her death.
In the photo, Nan Gong Yan was still alive, and across from her stood a young man who appeared quite ordinary. This man wore a green robe, but his attire was different from that of modern people, so Xia Tian was almost certain that this person must also be from the Mystic Immortal Gate or at least from the Divine Cloud Continent.
At this point, Xia Tian had started to suspect that those who came from the Divine Cloud Continent this time might not only include the twelve disciples of the Mystic Immortal Gate.
Xia Tian was also fairly certain that this young man was the one who killed Nan Gong Yan. This meant that in the current Beijing, the most dangerous person would likely be this unknown young man.
However, in recent days, Mu Han and Mei Er had secretly dispatched many people to investigate the whereabouts of this young man but had found nothing.
"Sister Immortal still hasn't sent any message. It seems she has yet to find a way to quickly increase her cultivation." One morning, sitting in the pavilion at Yiren Pavilion, Xia Tian muttered worriedly to himself as things seemed to be veering off his plan.
"Hey, it's breakfast time!" An unhappy voice suddenly sounded out, and then a small bag was thrown over to Xia Tian.
Xia Tian casually caught the bag; inside were several small steamed buns. Looking up, he only saw Jiujiu’s back. To be honest, today Yixiao Yin had been much kinder to Xia Tian, even sending Jiujiu to buy him breakfast, which could truly be called a miracle.
Aj9 couldn't figure out what was wrong with Miss.
"Miss, why are you being so nice to that bastard" Aj9 couldn't help but ask as soon as they entered the room.
Ixiaoyn said coolly, "He has been fulfilling his duties as a real bodyguard these past few days. Naturally, I treat him like one." She added, "Don’t overthink it; I merely view him as an ordinary bodyguard."
Aj9 pondered for a moment and then realized that, to be honest, the bastard Xia Tian had indeed acted like an ordinary bodyguard these past three days. Thus, she relaxed her mind, hoping Miss hadn't suddenly gone crazy and fallen in love with him.
After Xia Tian swallowed an entire bag of xiaolongbao, he finally walked out from under the pavilion and slipped into Ixiaoyn’s room.
"What are you doing" Aj9 was taken aback at first before getting irritated. What kind of person was this She had just thought he acted like an ordinary bodyguard, but now he wasn't being ordinary anymore!
"Eve wife, do you want to become a true cultivator" Xia Tian asked.
"What does that mean" Yi Xiaoyin wasn't very clear about what it meant to be a cultivator.
Hmm, Ii wife, it's like this. Only by forming a Golden Core can one truly step into the path of cultivation." Xia Tian gave a simple explanation and then went on to list many benefits of being at the Golden Core stage, such as being able to fly using qi or staying youthful forever.
When Nan Gong Yan died initially, Xia Tian was still hesitant about this. However, after waiting for three days with no response, he didn't want to continue waiting like this anymore. In his view, although there were risks when a Golden Core cultivator encountered someone who liked to devour their elixirs or fetal transformations at special times, generally speaking, a Golden Core cultivator was safer than an ordinary person. Therefore, he finally decided to help Yi Xiaoyin and Mu Han first before making any other decisions. The reason he chose to help Yi Xiaoyin first was simply because she was closer to him; it wasn't that he liked her more—actually, he clearly preferred Mu Han.
No one could refuse such an offer, so naturally I can’t either. If you want to turn me into a real cultivator, then I’m willing." After hearing Xia Tian's explanation, Yi Xiaoyin remained calm. "However, I need to tell you that even if you help me this much, I still won't thank you. Besides, if you give me the acupuncture treatment, you must also treat Ah Jiu; otherwise, I’d rather stay as I am."
No problem." Xia Tian readily agreed.
In Qiao Family in Jianghai City,
"Mr. Ding, I have already made myself clear to you. Xia Tian is not interested in your business at all. Why do you insist on pursuing this" Qiao Donghai looked at Ding Xiang with obvious displeasure. This old man had come for three consecutive days, and he had clearly told the old man from the start that Xia Tian was not interested; but the old man just wouldn't give up!erson involved.From what Chu Dingguo told him, Chang Donglin learned even more about Summer and found out that besides possessing miraculous medical skills, Summer also had formidable martial arts abi...
