Chapter 1327 Encountering a Corpse Again
It's not just bad, it's infamous.
Ning Ruan casually inquired with several cultivators and received largely the same information.
The No. 1 Tower under Heaven has long since become a den of debauchery for Long Lingzhu, a place for him to indulge in pleasure, cruelty, and amusement.
Occasionally, other cultivators would also go there.
But none of those who go to such places are aiming to exchange skills and knowledge with other outstanding talents.
What's even more interesting is that this building is not in Jiaocheng, nor in any of the other nine cities.
Instead, it was built on a mountain range outside the ten cities.
It is said that it was crafted by an extremely skilled spirit craftsman.
It cost a huge amount of money.
After getting directions, Ning Ruan prepared to go directly there.
She strolled leisurely towards the outskirts of the city.
He casually took out a fragrant spiritual fruit from his storage ring and munched on it as he walked, his relaxed demeanor making him seem nothing like someone about to kill someone.
"Are you really going to go like this?" Chi Ling did not object to Ning Ruan's plan to kill Long Lingzhu.
Especially after hearing the Eternal Domain cultivators' introduction of the Number One Pavilion Under Heaven, she not only didn't object.
He only regretted that he died too young.
If she doesn't die, she'll do this sooner or later anyway.
However, unlike Ning Ruan, they won't directly storm someone else's lair.
They didn't even bother with the slightest pretense.
She will have to kill him, but she will definitely be more careful.
"Ning Ruan," Chi Ling's voice was unusually solemn, "You only have one life. Don't ruin yourself. I'm a cautionary tale."
"Don't worry, you won't die."
"If you die, no one will prepare a soul-nourishing jade for you."
Ning Ruan: "?"
Living in the Soul-Nourishing Jade for a long time can increase the Poisonous Tongue attribute?
……
Since they were already there, and considering that after killing the Dragon Spirit Pearl, they would most likely have to run away again and wouldn't have a chance to return to the Eternal Domain.
Before leaving Jiaocheng, Ning Ruan deliberately passed through two markets.
I just wandered around.
They purchased another large quantity of rare and precious natural materials.
Only then did he leave the city, completely satisfied.
As she approached the city gate, her steps came to an abrupt halt.
Even the act of eating the spirit fruit stopped.
Her clear eyes shifted slightly, her gaze passing over the barely bustling crowd, and precisely locking onto a couple on the other side of the street.
Both of them had the appearance of Silverwings.
The man was handsome, the woman was charming, and their cultivation levels appeared to be around the thirteenth realm.
The two walked together intimately, looking more like a Daoist couple.
But that's not the point.
The key point is that there was a faint aura of death surrounding those two people.
It's very light.
It was so faint that it could fool the spiritual senses of most cultivators.
But Ning Ruan was all too familiar with this taste.
After all, not long ago, she had encountered him at the City Lord's Mansion in the Eternal Domain Flood Dragon City...
"Why have you stopped?"
Inside the Soul-Nourishing Jade, Chi Ling breathed a slight sigh of relief. Her voice echoed in Ning Ruan's mind, "You feel that directly attacking isn't a good idea, so you're looking for a safer approach?"
"That's how it should be. We should plan this carefully..."
Ning Ruan swallowed the last bite of the spiritual fruit and interrupted Chi Ling's telepathic transmission.
"No."
Her eyes narrowed slightly, her gaze still fixed on the two Silverwing Clan cultivators.
"I smell a corpse."
"!!!"
The Soul-Nourishing Jade at his waist suddenly trembled!
Chi Ling's soul fluctuated violently, and a chilling killing intent instantly emanated from it.
"A corpse?!"
Her voice suddenly turned cold, filled with deep-seated hatred, "It's the Dark Phoenix Clan?!"
Although I have been dead for many days, the feeling of death I had back then has not faded at all with time.
She harbored resentment towards the ten races.
But she hated the Nether Phoenix Clan, who specifically targeted cultivators of various races, even more.
"I do not know."
Ning Ruan said, "I only saw two corpses, not the person who connected us."
"..."
This familiar situation is quite similar to that of the Eternal Domain back then.
There were no Nether Phoenix Clan cultivators in sight; only the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan corpse puppet in the City Lord's Mansion was causing trouble behind the scenes.
"It must be them!"
Chiling gritted her teeth, "Those guys have accomplices."
"How dare they?"
"This is the territory of the Jiaolong Clan! How dare they make a move here and create a corpse puppet?!"
Ning Ruan nodded.
Just as he was about to send another message.
On the street ahead, the two Silverwing Clan cultivators, who were behaving intimately, suddenly stopped in their tracks.
They seemed to sense something.
next moment.
They all turned around.
The two faces, which looked exactly like those of a living person, stared at Ning Ruan with puzzlement.
Ning Ruan also looked at them.
There was absolutely no embarrassment at being caught peeping.
Instead, the corners of her lips curved slightly.
He revealed an innocent and harmless smile.
His smile clearly carried a hint of undisguised provocation.
She even nodded at the two of them.
It's like they're saying hello.
Two Silverwing Clan cultivators: "..."
The two exchanged a glance.
He then walked towards Ning Ruan.
It stopped again a few meters away.
The female cultivator chuckled and looked at Ning Ruan, her voice gentle and perfectly measured, without any hint of anger at being spied on: "Fellow Daoist, do you know us?"
"do not know."
Ning shook her head, her answer crisp and decisive.
The two: "..."
Beside the female cultivator, the Silverwing Clan cultivator who was clearly her Daoist partner frowned instantly, his tone unfriendly: "Since you don't know us, why are you looking at us?"
Ning Ruan raised her eyes, "I'll look if I want to."
She twitched the corner of her mouth and chuckled, "If you don't want me to see, then go invisible."
Two Silverwing Clan cultivators: "..."
These words are no longer just a provocation.
It's pure nitpicking.
"Do we have a grudge?" The female cultivator's face turned cold as she questioned in a deep voice.
Ning Ruan still shook her head.
There were many cultivators from various races coming and going at the city gate.
Although the commotion here wasn't large, it was still quite conspicuous.
Ning Ruan's human appearance is the main reason why he is hard to ignore.
Several gazes quickly converged on them.
