The Intelligence Skull that had caused him to hunt down Su Luo, had been personally drawn out by himself.
The Mimic Doll allowed Su Luo to escape catastrophe and instead put him in this state, had he been the one who helped Su Luo draw it too.
At that moment, Leng Xiao really didn’t know what to say.
He gazed at Su Luo with perplexed eyes… This person, was she really not the reincarnation of the Goddess of Luck? Her luck, how could it be this good to the point of defying the heavens? Would all those who opposed her end up as miserably as him?
"I'm not willing!!! Ah, ah, ahhh!!!"
After raising his head to the sky and yelling this phrase, Leng Xiao's body fell backwards, collapsing onto the ground with a loud bang.
Looking at Leng Xiao’s corpse, Su Luo sighed slowly.
At that moment, Leng Xiao's subordinates, all looked at Su Luo with dumb faces… However, they did not get closer.
Su Luo swept them an indifferent glance: "Leng Xiao is the one who had enmity with me. Now that he is dead, do you l want to avenge your former boss?"
Seeing that no one dared to approach her, Su Luo smiled as lightly as the clouds and the wind: "If I can kill your boss, then naturally I can kill all of you too. Those who want to send themselves to death can approach me.”
They continued staring at Su Luo, not one of them moving forwards.
Su Luo's smile remained unbothered: "Speaking of this, isn't electing a new boss the most important thing for you to do now?"
Leaving behind these words, Su Luo turned and left.
She didn't walk fast or slow, and her steps weren’t too big nor too small, but she still emanated an awe-inspiring aura from behind her.
Leng Xiao’s subordinates looked at each other… If Leng Xiao hadn’t died, perhaps they would’ve besieged Su Luo. Now that Leng Xiao had died, they each reconsidered their chances, and could only watch as Su Luo walked away.
Actually, if they had surrounded her, Su Luo wouldn’t have been able to defeat them, but Su Luo had long ago grasped their thinking, so she took advantage of their selfishness’ to blatantly retreat.
Her retreat was clean and classy, confident and assertive.
After Su Luo exited the Blood Mist Forest, she quickly ran to rendezvous with Big Sister Wei.
Earlier, Big Sister Wei had left with the flying pig, rushing to the exit of the Sunset Forest; however, after waiting for so long, she was bored, and could only sit on a rock with a blank expression.
She waited and waited until she began to feel sleepy…
Soon enough, she was snoring like a pig.
When Su Luo returned, she smiled with bitterness at Big Sister Wei, who was sleeping soundly on the ground.
Big Sister Wei was really easygoing and carefree, never worrying about a thing. In these circumstances, she was still able to sleep even better than a pig, this truly left one speechless.
Su Luo patted Big Sister Wei, waking her up.
Big Sister Wei rubbed her sleepy eyes, and when she saw Su Luo, her eyebrows rose in surprise, and she pulled Su Luo excitedly: "I was faster than you! I want roasted suckling pig!!!"
"Okay." Su Luo had been exhausted for so long, and also needed some rest after the danger had passed, so she was in a good mood. She helped Big Sister Wei to roast the suckling pig, then allowed her to store it in the little storage space so that whenever she wanted to eat, she could take some out.
Then, the two continued on their journey.
Su Luo could only smile bitterly.
Because after passing through the forest and the fight with Leng Xiao, over half of the time limit had already passed. If the golden airship hadn’t been broken, they could’ve still made it. However, with more than half the distance still to cover, going on foot, they would not make it on time.
Sure enough, when Su Luo and Big Sister Wei arrived, the assessment had already begun for two hours.
At that time, they had already stopped letting people in, so Su Luo and Big Sister Wei were blocked outside the entrance.
"Go back, go back! There is no place for you to stay here." The guard at the gate of the Upstream Mountain stopped Su Luo and Big Sister Wei outside the entrance.
Go back? That wouldn’t do. Su Luo had the Intelligence Skull in her possession; however, Leng Xiao's subordinates had been so stupefied by his death, that they had forgotten about this matter. Even if she were to go back to Midstream Mountain with Big Sister Wei, they would not be safe either.
The guard was a big, sturdy man in his thirties, with a scar on his face that reached diagonally from the corner of his right eye to his left chin. He looked fierce and vicious, not someone to anger.
Furthermore, although he was a gatekeeper, he was not weak at all. He seemed to be at least a three-star Saint-rank, and even Big Sister Wei might not be able to defeat him.
Seeing that Su Luo and Big Sister Wei remained motionless, the scarred man yelled out, "Don't block the entrance! Hurry and go away!"
At that very moment, a small group not far off was rushing back.
The head of the group was a girl.
Seeing this girl, Su Luo felt as if there was a light in front of her.
This girl had a very nice appearance and was much more beautiful than Li Yaoyao from back then.
She had eyebrows that looked as if they were drawn on, an icy body and bones of jade, and an imposing manner, like a fairy untouchable by dust.
Following her were five or six men, all of whom were good-looking, handsome, or mighty. However, the most notable thing they had in common was that they all circled her, courteous and pleasing, for fear that they would somehow provoke the fairy.
They had also just rushed out of the forest, but Su Luo appeared dusty and windblown, whereas this fairy’s clothing looked pure and unstained. In contrast, Su Luo looked like a wild girl from the countryside, very ordinary to the eye.
Su Luo saw one of the men in the group, then lowered her head slightly and stood in silence beside Big Sister Wei, relying on Big Sister Wei’s huge body to block her from the others’ line of sight.
At that time, the other party's eyes were all focused on the figure of the fairy, so nobody noticed Su Luo’s presence.
At the same time, Su Luo was able to identify who most likely this fairy was.
Because she remembered that Lin Banli was crazy about Fairy Wu You, he was only one out of many of Fairy Wu You’s suitors. Looking at these circumstances, Lin Banli and this group of outstanding men could only be surrounding Fairy Wu You.
Fairy Wu You was the proudest disciple of the Third Elder. After Su Luo had a confrontation with the Third Elder, she and Fairy Wu You naturally became enemies, with no room for reconciliation.
Su Luo hadn’t intended to encounter Fairy Wu You so soon, so she asked Big Sister Wei to block her figure on purpose.
At that time, the group of men was surrounding Fairy Wu You, wholeheartedly pampering her as they moved towards the gate.
Fairy Wu You inevitably noticed Big Sister Wei.
She frowned slightly and glanced at the scarred man. "What's the matter? When has the Upstream Mountain become a place that a mere cat or dog can enter?"
Big Sister Wei looked around with bright eyes: "Where is it, where is it? Where is the dog?"
The roast suckling pig was too greasy to eat so often, so she had just been thinking about changing up her tastes.
"Hahahahaha—" The group of men behind Fairy Wu You laughed out loud when they heard Big Sister Wei’s silly remarks, each one of them holding their stomachs as they laughed in an exaggerated manner.
