"I have a method to look for even more powerful Dragon-Phoenix Pools, do you want to give it a try?"
Hearing those enticing words from Cai Xiao's mouth, Mu Chen's heart uncontrollably jolted twice. Even with his composure, he couldn't help looking at Cai Xiao in shock. After a long while, he suppressed his voice and said in astonishment, "How is that possible?"
If the Dragon-Phoenix Pools were things so easily found, then there wouldn't be so many people competing so ferociously for them every time the Dragon-Phoenix Haven opened.
"They can probe the location of Dragon-Phoenix Pools, so why can't I do the same?" Cai Xiao lightly smiled. Her deep and unfathomable attitude made Mu Chen stunned. After all, he knew that this girl before him was indeed quite mysterious.
"Then it will be very dangerous, right?" Mu Chen muttered.
"Who doesn't have to pay the price to obtain those that ordinary people couldn't?" Cai Xiao directed her gaze at Mu Chen as she continued, "I don't think you are a person that would think about native things like a meat pie falling from the sky, right?"
"I just don't want to do useless effort." Mu Chen smiled before slowly nodding his head and seriously looked at Cai Xiao."But I am rather interested in your suggestion. If you want to give it a go, then I will accompany you."
Slap!
Cai Xiao gently clasped her hands together as she smiled, "It's decided, then. But if we want my method to work, then we will have to first find a Dragon-Phoenix Pool. So we must seize one of them in the Dragon-Phoenix Haven."
"We still have to snatch a Dragon-Phoenix Pool? Then what's the meaning in looking for other Dragon-Phoenix Pools?" Mu Chen frowned his brows.
"Fool, there are stronger and weaker pools. Therefore, the Ersatz Dragon Physique and Ersatz Phoenix Physique cultivated with them will also be weak or strong depending on the pools. If we can get the baptism of an even more powerful Dragon-Phoenix Pool, I believe it will be greatly beneficial later on." Cai Xiao spoke frankly with assurance. Looking at her appearance right now, she didn't seem like someone that had no knowledge about the Dragon-Phoenix Haven.
Mu Chen pondered for a brief moment. What Cai Xiao said was right, except he had still helplessly flung his lips. Looks like they had to compete for one Dragon-Phoenix Pool and a fierce battle couldn't be avoided. After all, the opening of Dragon-Phoenix Haven this time only had five pools. Thus, the competition would definitely be unimaginably intense.
While Mu Chen and Cai Xiao conversed in a low voice, the commotion in the Dragon-Phoenix Haven grew bigger as well. After all, having just five pools had clearly, considerably stirred them.
Mu Qiu looked at this scene and helplessly shook his head as well."According to our estimations, the Dragon-Phoenix Haven will completely open tomorrow and it will be the best time to enter. The Dragon-Phoenix Haven is also filled with danger. The beasts in there might not have high intelligence, but due to the fact that a True Dragon and Phoenix have died there, they are extremely strong. Therefore, I hope that everyone can be well-prepared."
Finishing his words, Mu Qiu did not speak any further, then slowly turned around and left, leaving the Dragon-Phoenix Haven's atmosphere being increasingly noisy.
"Let's go, there's no reason to stay here anymore. We'll wait for the Dragon-Phoenix Haven to open tomorrow." At the sight of this, Mu Chen had stood up as he spoke towards Cai Xiao.
Cai Xiao nodded her head and the two of them left the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion.
The departure of Mu Chen and Cai Xiao had also attracted some attention. Su Biyue and Hong Yu's gazes lightly flickered. Although that Mu Chen from the Great Havenlaw Domain only had the cultivation of a Third Grade Sovereign Realm, the strength that he had displayed far exceeded that which they had to pay attention to.
It looked like there would be many dark horses emerging in this Dragon-Phoenix Haven.
Liu Yan coldly looked at the departure of those two with indifference as a cold light surged in the depth of his eyes as he lowly muttered to himself, "I'll let you be complacent for another day. After entering the Dragon-Phoenix Haven tomorrow, I will let you know the meaning of living death..."
However, when Mu Chen and Cai Xiao left, no one had noticed that on the upper floor, there was a figure that lightly rippled before disappearing.
Leaving the Dragon-Phoenix Haven, the two of them headed towards the western side of the Dragon-Phoenix Ancient City as they looked for a place to rest for the night. But when they travelled through numerous streets and into one that didn't have many people, Cai Xiao's figure suddenly stopped and her gorgeous gaze narrowed like a cat.
"Not going to show yourself after following us for so long?"
When Cai Xiao spoke, lightning instantly exploded on Mu Chen's body and he clenched his hand, which followed the appearance of the Great Meru Demonic Pillar, and slammed it towards the space behind them without any hesitation.
In the void, a slender hand stretched out and gently patted the Great Meru Demonic Pillar. Instantly, visible ripples fluctuated.
Buzz!
Earth cracked but the Great Meru Demonic Pillar was actually sent back and Mu Chen's figure heavily jolted and the slab beneath his feet was reduced to dust. He looked up ahead with a serious gaze. Space started to undulate in the direction he was looking at as a white-clothed figure slowly appeared.
The white-clothed figure had a head of black hair with sharp brows like swords and starry-like pupils. He also had a handsome face and there seemed to be a mysterious fluctuation rippling on his body.
"Haha. Formidable, I never expected that this Void Concealment Art would not able to escape your senses. Since when was there such a formidable figure amongst the younger generations of the Northern Region?" The white-clothed figure lightly smiled. His gaze was fixed onto Cai Xiao as he warmly asked.
Although this man had an appearance that made girls smitten for him, Cai Xiao had only lightly glanced at him before saying, "Just a Void Concealment Art, not as formidable as you think."
"Who are you? Why are you following us?" Mu Chen frowned.
"I apologise, I have unintentionally overheard your conversation, which made me a little interested, " said the white-clothed man.
Mu Chen's eyes narrowed. His conversation with Cai Xiao was wrapped in Spiritual Energy, and this fellow could actually, unintentionally overhear their conversation? Those means of his were rather powerful.
"If you're interested then go play by yourself, we're not in need of men." There wasn't any emotion in Cai Xiao's clear voice, since she was clearly not interested in this fellow that had offered himself.
The white-clothed man clearly did not expect Cai Xiao to reject him so bluntly and he frowned."I believe that with my help, your success will be greater. Furthermore, perhaps there might not be anyone that will disturb us at that time."
"But I believe your appetite isn't small." Cai Xiao gently waved her hand, "Go, I will not pursue the matter of you eavesdropping on us."
"You're not going to give it another consideration?" Light seemed to have flickered in the depths of the white-clothed man's eyes as he lightly said, "It's always better to have an extra friend, right?"
"You're threatening me?" Cai Xiao smiled. That charm of her smile could basically make the heart of others leap out.
The white-clothed man did not speak, but stared at Cai Xiao. In the next moment, his eyes suddenly narrowed and he disappeared.
Rustle!
But in the instant when he disappeared, Cai Xiao's figure had also disappeared and appeared a few hundred feet away, before pointing her slender finger towards the void.
Buzz!
Space fluctuated as Cai Xiao's figure pierced through space, before a powerful Spiritual Energy storm burst out, reducing the slabs in this street to dust.
Cai Xiao retreated the instant she attacked and returned to her original spot. Looking at the space that was gradually restoring, she lifted her brows in astonishment."That fellow's pretty powerful. Pity that there are too many seals on me right now. Otherwise, I would just lock the space he's in and see how would he escape."
Clearly, she had not gotten any advantage in that clash earlier.
Mu Chen put on a thoughtful expression before lightly saying, "If my guess is correct, there's a chance that he's the first ranked on the Dragon-Phoenix record, Fang Yi of the Divine Pavilion."
"Oh, doesn't that mean that you have nearly offended all of the Top 5 rankers?" Cai Xiao exclaimed, the laughter in her eyes could not be concealed.
Mu Chen stared at her with his teeth itching, "You're the one that acted this time!"
"The scheming of that fellow is too deep, I don't like him so I did not want to work together with him." Cai Xiao shrugged with her hands out with an indifferent attitude. She did not feel any fear just because that previous person was the first ranker on the Dragon-Phoenix Record.
"It suits you." Mu Chen nodded his head. That fellow had given of an oppressive pressure, even Mu Chen wasn't too willing to cooperate with him. Although it might be troublesome to offend him, Mu Chen never feared trouble.
Mu Chen also had an indifferent attitude, which made Cai Xiao feel a little unexpected as she smiled, "I thought that you might be more than willing to work with him. After all, not even Liu Yan would dare to touch you if you work together with him."
"Let him come if he wants, I have never feared him. Furthermore, I make friends, but not for the purpose of using them." Mu Chen smiled as his tone of speech suddenly changed and looked at Cai Xiao with an eye-narrowing smile."Then again, don't I still have you? Although that Fang Yi is formidable, I don't see how you're lacking behind."
"And just when I was admiring you a little..." Cai Xiao rolled her eyes at Mu Chen. She no longer paid any attention to him, turned around and headed out of the street as Mu Chen followed with smiles.
When the two of them left, space distorted on a rooftop far away. A white-clothed figure appeared and was looking at the direction that the two left in and lowered his head on his finger, which had a shallow bloodstain.
His abstruse gaze flickered as he faintly laughed, before waving his hand and disappeared.
"Who exactly is that girl... ? Looks like the Dragon-Phoenix Haven will be interesting this time."
