Chapter 74: 229
Chapter 229 Xu Cheng: Don't change, I just like this evil fire form
A scene in the Colosseum.
In Xu Cheng's eyes, it was just child's play. Although 20 or 30 years later, this group of people were the backbone of various forces, it did not prevent Xu Cheng from seeing their emotional behavior as naive.
It can be seen that these Shrek inner court disciples also feel very sorry for Chen Zifeng.
There were even a few boys who scolded him loudly. In fact, they scolded him angrily because they cared about him. Their purpose was very simple, which was to make Chen Zifeng change his mind and return to the warm Shrek family.
But some people remained silent.
Because they know that nothing can go back to the way it was.
Inside Poseidon Island.
The disciples in the inner courtyard were laughing and chatting happily.
It was cut in half by a sharp sword and fell slowly like a shattered curtain, revealing its truly cruel side at the moment.
The figure walked away gloomily, and the Shrek inner courtyard disciples who had become the background fell silent. The figure looked at all kinds of people, and then slowly blurred until he was completely left behind the door.
"Don't you suspect him?" Ma Xiaotao appeared beside Xu Cheng at some point, drank the orange juice casually and put it on the table, staring at Xu Cheng with her beautiful eyes with a hint of confusion.
Just like a drunk woman in a bar, with a dazed expression.
"Don't employ people you doubt, and don't doubt people you employ." Xu Cheng said calmly.
He didn't care whether Chen Zifeng's surrender was real or fake. This kid used it well. It was like a sharp blade in his hand, piercing Shrek's heart.
His strategic significance far outweighs his military value.
There are many geniuses in the Sun-Moon Empire, especially this generation. It won't make much difference if there is one more Chen Zifeng or one less Chen Zifeng.
"You are so cool and unrestrained..." Ma Xiaotao pursed her red lips.
"Have you been drinking?"
Xu Cheng glanced at Ma Xiaotao in surprise.
Although the beauty was wearing a black cloak, her proud posture could not be concealed. There was a hint of drunkenness on her pretty face, and her red eyes stared at Xu Cheng in a daze. Her body leaned forward slightly, her jade hands supporting her fragrant cheeks, and she looked at Xu Cheng's profile quietly. Between her breaths, a hint of the fragrance of orange juice mixed with a faint smell of alcohol spread between the two of them.
"Burp, I just drank a little, not much, orange juice cocktail, a new product of Mingdetang Canteen. You can have a glass for only one silver soul coin... and a refill is only three bronze soul coins." Ma Xiaotao pointed to the empty glass on the table.
"I've already had more than a dozen refills. How's that? Can you drink... well?"
Xu Cheng glanced at Ma Xiaotao speechlessly.
His tongue was tied, but he still said he was not drunk.
As expected, there is only one hard part on a drunk person's body - the mouth.
"The wine made from this plant is not industrial alcohol, and its concentration is ridiculously low. You can get drunk just by adding a little bit of orange juice to it. And you have a good alcohol tolerance. You should sit at the children's table during the meal." Xu Cheng complained.
"I can drink... a lot! The cafeteria auntie even praised me!" Ma Xiaotao's pretty face turned redder and her beautiful eyes stared at Xu Cheng with dissatisfaction.
"Because she gets a commission for every cup she sells." Xu Cheng said lightly.
Ma Xiaotao: "…"
"I don't care, I don't care, I just drink a lot!" Seeing that Xu Cheng didn't let go, the beauty took his arms and hugged them to her chest, shaking them continuously. At the same time, her cloak became a little loose, revealing her long burgundy hair and her beautiful profile while slightly drunk.
It's really childish to act like a spoiled child for this.
Xu Cheng sighed.
Ma Xiaotao has always had a hot temper in the inner courtyard, but her appearance is absolutely impeccable and her figure is top-notch. If she could control her temper, the students chasing after her would definitely line up from Poseidon Pavilion to Shrek City.
Even he felt a little bit sad when seeing this scene.
"It would be better if you were gentler." Xu Cheng said with a smile.
Ma Xiaotao's body lay limp on the table, with only some consciousness left to hold Xu Cheng's arm tightly, refusing to let go.
"Hey, Xiao Tao-senpai!!!"
Suddenly, a cry of surprise was heard.
Xu Cheng turned around in surprise, only to see a Shrek inner courtyard disciple staring at him with a dull expression. He glanced at Ma Xiaotao in a daze.
Because she was drunk, she forgot to conceal her identity, causing her hood to slip off, revealing her true face.
I shook my head helplessly, and he still had to clean up his ass...
"Where is she? Where is Sister Xiaotao?" The Shrek inner courtyard disciples around reacted and looked in the direction the disciple was looking, but there was no one there.
"Are you hallucinating?" everyone asked suspiciously.
"This... maybe." For some reason, the fact that he had just stated became blurred in his mind. He smiled bitterly and scratched his head.
"Hey, are you secretly in love with Sister Tao? Tell the truth!"
"Really not..."
"…"
In the bedroom where the warm lights flicker.
Ma Xiaotao was lying on the bed, her pair of phoenix eyes gleaming with intoxication, her long eyelashes slightly blinking, her willow-leaf brows slightly furrowed, revealing her creamy skin.
Her fingertips slid across the boy's tense chest, and the crimson nail polish reflected the totem pattern of the evil fire phoenix in Xu Cheng's pupils.
"Is the evil fire out of control again?" Xu Cheng's throat rolled. After putting the beauty's body down, he was about to get out of bed, but his neck was entangled by the black hair stained with the scent of wine.
The tip of her jade-like nose brushed against her earlobe, and a breath with the fragrance of wine escaped from her crimson lips: "This time... it's the fire in my heart."
Ma Xiaotao tightly held Xu Cheng's arm, her beautiful eyes still blurred: "Last time, I was disturbed by the senior sister, and I endured it for a long time. This time I really can't bear it anymore. If you don't care about me, I might be devoured by the evil fire..."
Xu Cheng pursed his lips.
Ever since the martial soul mutated, Ma Xiaotao's evil fire has become true... evil fire.
Although there is no need to suppress it with soul power, there are more channels for dredging. These days, I can only solve it with my hands, but the evil fire is only temporarily suppressed. Only the true intersection of yin and yang can completely solve it...
"Woo woo~"
Suddenly, the girl frowned in pain.
The room was filled with the dark evil fire of the Evil Fire Phoenix, and inky evil fire flashed in her misty peach blossom eyes.
It seems that it can't be suppressed anymore.
Xu Cheng sighed softly.
On the face of the beauty on the bed, the corners of her red eyes were covered with ink-colored lines, outlining a dark makeup look...
"Woo woo."
With her lips blocked, the beauty struggled for a moment, and then the darkness in her eyes slowly faded.
When their lips parted, the "makeup" on Ma Xiaotao's face seemed to have faded a little, leaving only a trace of shyness and a blush.
"Don't rush to exit this state. This is exactly the effect I want." Seeing this, Xu Cheng leaned close to the girl's ear and chuckled.
"…"
Ma Xiaotao raised her arms to cover her face and turned her head to the side.
Accompanied by a series of tiny crackling sounds, the bed began to shake.
"Woo~"
A translucent phoenix tail flame ignited at the beauty's fingertips, and as it moved along the boy's smooth spine, it burned a scarlet mark. The door was closed by the sudden rise of soul power waves, and a line of hot crystal tears rolled onto the bed as the bed shook.
"Sizzle!"
Like the moment when ice and fire merge.
A mist slowly rose up, making the soul guide light flicker.
…
Ming capital.
There is a mystery hidden in a secret door.
The quiet and deep tunnel leads directly to a larger and more mysterious underground world.
Xu Cheng looked around with interest.
Shangguan Weier was leading the way.
Passersby on both sides of the road avoided her in a panic, perhaps because they saw Shangguan Weier. After all, this well-behaved sheep in front of Xu Cheng was the true overlord in this underground world.
"Your Highness, this is your first time coming here." Shangguan Wei'er chuckled.
"Not bad." Xu Cheng nodded slightly.
This is the real underground world.
It is hidden beneath the bustling streets of Mingdu, facing the light of Mingdu, representing darkness, filth, killing and so on.
To be honest, it was not until he saw it with his own eyes that he gained a deeper understanding of this underground world.
In the supermodel system dominated by soul guides, the "construction team" has never been ordinary people. Mingdu has a complete construction system, from digging soul guides to metal structures and even defense linkages, all of which are linked together.
This underground world is extremely large, and is filled with cheap soul-guiding lighting devices, the designs of which are just like the soul-guiding street lamps used in Mingdu hundreds of years ago. There are even crackling sounds from time to time, and the lights flicker.
Abandoned soul guide instruments were piled up like a huge mechanical hill, but many of the dilapidated soul guide instruments were so old that even Xu Cheng took a long time to identify them.
There are dilapidated buildings on both sides of the road. I don't know what style they are. They are difficult to distinguish due to the corrosion of time.
"Your Highness, don't underestimate these buildings. Although they look messy, they are the places where many people live and work. I escaped from the Xingluo Empire when I was eleven years old. When I first entered Mingdu, I wandered here and survived by taking on some missions. Every night when I was injured or came back exhausted, I would spend the night in one of these buildings."
Shangguan Weier sighed.
"..."Xu Cheng nodded slightly.
In just a few sentences, he could imagine a weak girl, with wounds all over her body, walking back here with one foot deep and one foot shallow. After simply bandaging her wounds, she fell into a light sleep, and had to be on guard against others at all times...
"We're here. This is it."
Soon, Shangguan Weier stopped.
In front of us is a row of buildings in the "modern" Mingdu style, all of which are four or five stories high. This row of streets seems to be the territory of the "Ordinary Alliance".
Some black-robed men stationed in front also saluted Shangguan Weier.
"Leader!"
"Your Highness, please..." Shangguan Wei'er ignored him and looked at Xu Cheng with a sweet smile, bowing slightly.
Seeing the leader's behavior, many of the black-robed people around him looked tense and dared not utter a word.
Although I knew that the distinguished guest was coming, I didn't expect the leader to be like this...
…
"Alliance leader, what do you think is wrong with the Ordinary Alliance?"
Inside a building.
A dark shadow said in confusion.
"Such a grand ceremony means they are entertaining an honorable guest, but this honorable guest...will definitely not be the prince behind her. He is not qualified." Nangong Wan frowned and pondered.
The Ordinary Alliance, which used to be the most low-key of the three major forces in the underground world, now changed its attitude and blocked its sphere of influence for several kilometers, strictly prohibiting passage around it, and even did not give any face to the other two alliances.
"What important person is she hooking up with?" the shadow's voice was solemn.
"It's hard to say, but there are only two possibilities. One, is as you said, she has hooked up with some big shot, and the hype is to warn us not to act rashly and to prepare for the competition four years later. Two, she is simply bluffing to scare us..." Nangong Wan shook his head.
"But nowadays, the only ones who can be more valuable than the prince are those with a military background and... the royal family, our Holy Son, and the current emperor of the Sun Moon Empire. These two points are extremely difficult and almost impossible."
He frowned and thought for a long time, but was still confused.
Could it be that...she was just bluffing?
...
"Ordinary League, Shangguan Weier."
Inside another magnificent palace-like building.
A middle-aged man in luxurious robes, with a cigarette holder hanging from his mouth, looked over there with interest.
The lights in the entire underground city are mostly dim, and there are only three places with bright lights. The power is distributed in the triangle of the city. His place is higher and he can have a panoramic view of the underground city.
"Among us, her background is the weakest. Why is she making such a fuss now?..." He exhaled a puff of smoke lightly, looking through the transparent glass, with his hands behind his back.
"Master, our backers are the military. As the leader of the Imperial Dragon Soul Guidance Group, are we afraid of a prince like him?" a waiter whispered.
"I'm not afraid, but I'm afraid there's something else going on." The middle-aged man frowned slightly.
"Although the Imperial Dragon Soul Guidance Group chose the wrong side, the current leader did not punish them. Although they are slightly inferior to the Fire Phoenix Soul Guidance Group, they are still one of the four major beast soul guidance groups after all, with a deep foundation. Even if you look at the entire imperial capital, no one dares to provoke them."
"Besides, to put it bluntly, we are his dog..."
The middle-aged man sighed.
Staring at the brightly lit area, many black-robed men equipped with flying soul guides were conducting reconnaissance in the air nearby, cooperating with the ground forces. It was a very high-level operation.
He said leisurely: "We have no choice."
…
"Your Highness, these three are dragon girls. Although they are covered with scales, as long as they are in estrus, these troublesome scales will disappear and become a superior furnace. After you have enjoyed them, the blood in their bodies can promote the evolution of your martial soul. The most important thing is that a trace of dragon energy will be mixed into the evolution of your martial soul."
In a magnificent hall.
Shangguan Weier clapped her hands.
The three dragon ladies walked in from the back corridor and stood in line with indifferent looks.
"Dragon Qi?" Xu Cheng raised his eyebrows.
Speaking of which, the dragon in the Douluo world does symbolize the top martial spirit. As long as you have a trace of its bloodline, you will definitely not be ordinary.
but...
"My martial soul doesn't even bother to be decorated with dragon blood." Xu Cheng took a sip of tea and spoke lightly.
"Besides, didn't I say..."
"Your Highness, calm down." Shangguan Wei'er saw this and rushed to Xu Cheng's side. She bent down and said nervously, "This dragon girl is not a human being, but a strange creature that is half human and half beast. They grew up in the mountains. I bought them when they were young and trained them myself."
Many waiters choked and watched the scene in horror.
This man was one of the three kings of the underworld, yet he would bend down and kneel before a young boy.
And it caused such a commotion.
Many maids were curious about the boy's identity.
