Chapter 71: Three Flowers Gather at the Apex, Five Energies Converging to the Origin
That night, the moon was bright and the stars were few.
In the Fragrant Flower Shop, Xiao Yun was, as usual, meditating before sleep.
The afternoon before yesterday, Xiao Yun had visited the Rose Garden Community with Duan Jingxue to look at a villa. The price was quite reasonable, but some of the interior arrangements did not satisfy Xiao Yun, so he made some modifications. The workers were currently busy with the renovations, and they would be able to move in a few days.
That night, for some unknown reason, the little bell in the Storage Ring was unusually restless, flapping its wings incessantly, making it difficult for Xiao Yun to concentrate.
"Little bell, are you in heat or something? Why can't you stay still? You're making it hard for me to meditate," Xiao Yun joked.
"Pfft! You're the one who's in heat!" the little bell retorted angrily.
With a whoosh, the little bell flew out of the Storage Ring and landed on the window opposite Xiao Yun, flapping its wings.
Xiao Yun noticed that the little bell's mood was not quite right and cautiously asked, "Little bell, tell me, what's wrong with you?"
"Sigh!"
The little bell sighed and said, "Kid, I feel something is off tonight. It seems like some danger is approaching us."
"Danger?" Xiao Yun was taken aback.
The Little Bell said, "Yes, it's a pity that you, as a mortal, have no sense of perception at all!"
Xiao Yun knew that Little Bell's sensing ability was quite extraordinary and asked, "What did you sense?"
"A kind of inexplicable killing intent that is pressing in!"
Little Bell pondered for a moment and said, "How about this? I'll go take a look!"
Xiao Yun nodded and replied, "Alright, just be quick and come back. Don't go around killing people casually!"
"Understood!"
Little Bell responded and then flew out of the window.
Xiao Yun lost interest in cultivating; he was waiting for Little Bell to return.
What kind of danger could it be?
Since it made Little Bell so uneasy, it must be something beyond ordinary danger.
About half an hour later, Little Bell squeezed back in through the window.
That bird was really fast.
"What exactly is going on?" Xiao Yun asked anxiously.
The little bell gasped, "Don't rush, let this beautiful lady have a sip of water first!"
Xiao Yun quickly brought over a cup of brewed tea.
After gulping down a few sips, the little bell said, "I've already found out that there are four people staying at a hotel not far from the airport. They have a strong killing intent, as if they are specifically targeting you."
"Targeting me?"
"Yes, these people seem to have come from Beijing!"
Uh—Xiao Yun rubbed his chin. They came from Beijing?
He immediately thought of the Ethereal Stone beneath Phoenix City.
"I understand now; these people must have been sent by Song Chaoyang," Xiao Yun said.
The little bell asked, "Why?"
"Song Chaoyang has always wanted to obtain the Ethereal Stone and has repeatedly threatened Duan Haoran with the Mind Control Cicada to help him seize Phoenix City. He probably didn't realize that the Spiritual Energy of the Ethereal Stone has already been drained by me, so he must be unwilling and sent someone to find me."
"Well, that makes sense. You’re quite clever, huh? This beautiful lady is indeed starting to like you more!" The little bell pouted.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yun felt a wave of sweat on his body.
"How did you find them?" Xiao Yun pondered for a moment and asked.
The Little Bell said, "I couldn't find them. They seem to be experts from the Ancient Martial Arts Sect who have concealed their Spiritual Energy. I just flew around for a bit and analyzed the data based on the intuition in my brain. If my data is correct, they will make a move against you tonight!"
Damn, this Spirit Bird is indeed extraordinary!
These four people from Beijing want to take action against me tonight?
At that moment, Xiao Yun's gaze turned cold.
He quickly stood up and said, "Little Bell, we need to leave here quickly!"
"Where to?" Little Bell asked.
Xiao Yun replied, "Just follow me and you'll know!"
...
At this time, Orchid Daoist was standing on the top floor, holding the Starlight Mirror and constantly adjusting its position. With a "ding," a green dot appeared on the Starlight Mirror, faintly glowing.
"I found it!" Orchid Daoist exclaimed, and the Sky Valley Trio immediately gathered around him.
Zheng Er asked, "What did you find?"
Orchid Daoist pointed at the green light on the Starlight Mirror and said, "This is the person we're looking for; he is the one who extracted the Spiritual Energy from the Ethereal Stone. Let me check his exact location... Oh, it turns out he is in a flower shop at the Jincheng South Road Intersection."
Zheng Da asked, "When do we make our move?"
Orchid Daoist chuckled and said, "On a dark and windy night, it's the perfect time for murder and arson. I just calculated that a fierce storm will hit at midnight; we should strike then!"
"Hey," Zheng San pointed at the Starlight Mirror and said, "Daoist, look, why is that green dot moving?"
Orchid Daoist was taken aback, his eyes fixated on the green dot in the mirror. "Does this guy know we're coming and is trying to escape?"
Zheng San shouted, "Then let's chase after him quickly! Damn it, I can't lose the ten million I've got my hands on. If I do, I won't even be able to buy a stunning beauty with that money!"
"You damn fool, all you think about is beautiful women!" Zheng Da shot a sideways glance at Zheng San and slapped him on the head. Zheng San immediately fell silent but grumbled internally, "You insult my mother, aren't you just insulting your own?"
"Don't rush," Orchid Daoist kept his eyes on the Starlight Mirror, murmuring, "It seems like he stopped again. Uh, where is this place? Let me check!"
Orchid Daoist counted on his fingers for a moment and shook his head.
Seeing Orchid Daoist looking confused, Zheng Da asked, "Daoist, what's wrong?"
Orchid Daoist replied, "Strange thing; this guy has gone to Mirror Lake Park. What could he be doing there?"
……
Meanwhile, Xiao Yun, after listening to the analysis from Little Bell, waved his hand and stored her in his ring before opening the flower shop's door and stepping outside.
Little Bell anxiously said, "Why are you locking me in the ring again?"
"I'm keeping you in the ring for your safety!" Xiao Yun replied.
Little Bell felt a surge of excitement and thought to herself, this guy is not bad; he considers my safety. It seems this beauty hasn't followed the wrong person!
The Fragrant Flower Shop is owned by Duan Qingxue. Since someone is coming to cause trouble for her, he doesn't want to fight here and ruin the flower shop she has worked so hard to manage.
Mirror Lake Park is a remote place, and besides, there won't be anyone around at midnight. If a fight breaks out, it won't harm any innocent bystanders.
Little Bell already understood his thoughts and murmured, "This guy is truly a good person. Once this beauty cultivates to become an adult, I will definitely stick with him!"
A dark cloud covered the moon, and the scenery in the park suddenly dimmed. A wind began to blow, growing stronger with each gust.
The weather was about to change.
Xiao Yun sat in the Pavilion, using his Spiritual Sense to scan the surroundings. He vaguely saw four dark figures rapidly approaching from one or two meters away.
At that moment, the four individuals were surrounded by a wave of vital energy that surged like a tide, shrouded in a thick mist. The killing intent flashed like lightning, intermittently appearing within the fluctuating vital energy surrounding them.
Three Flowers Gather at the Apex, Five Energies Converging to the Origin. With his Spiritual Sense, Xiao Yun discerned that these four were indeed innate experts from the Ancient Martial Arts Sect, each possessing their own unique skills.
"Little Bell, these four are indeed formidable. What do you think? Should we escape or fight?" Xiao Yun asked.
