Corpse Recovery Diver - Chapter 1044 - 186: 6

But it wasn't because he sensed some kind of warning, rather, when the corpse energy briefly erupted, he caught a intoxicating scent.

When the broken jade in Xiao Yuan's hand erupted, on the terrace, his face turned pale, and more than once he swallowed unconsciously, as the aroma was incredibly tantalizing.

Yin Meng finally set one foot on the rooftop, but then she couldn't hold on any longer, her figure quickly retreated back.

She had reached her limit, unable to sustain the Walking Yin state.

On the bed in the room downstairs, Yin Meng opened her eyes, sat up and first began to retch repeatedly, then covered her flushed face with her hands.

It felt like she struggled to reach there only to make a fool of herself.

However, the people on the rooftop weren't overly focused on this detail because everyone saw those spectral figures suddenly burst out from where they had stood.

It seemed like something dashed by swiftly and delivered a fierce punch.

Lin Shuyou: "Fist aura, so heavy."

However, those spectral figures merely distorted but didn't dissipate.

As if they had completed what they wanted to do, they turned to leave, walking far away before gradually disappearing.

Li Zhiyuan paid more attention to the person who struck earlier.

He had long realized that in the night after that, there were still people hidden outside the guesthouse, and just now, it was confirmed.

Tan Wenbin curiously asked: "What's going on here?"

Li Zhiyuan: "Probably related to the banquet."

Tan Wenbin: "Hmm?"

In the Walking Yin state, Tan Wenbin felt his brain thinking somewhat sluggishly, and even a slight mental effort made his head ache, with a tearing sensation.

Li Zhiyuan: "The three pieces of broken jade are like invitations, but I suspect that the resulting massacre is not solely for fighting over this entrance ticket. It could very well be a preparation for the banquet."

To open the banquet, sufficient deaths are required, and the positions where those indestructible spectral figures stood earlier were where Xu Yijin and five others died and were buried.

The whole clan ascends to immortality.

Li Zhiyuan didn't believe it; he believed it couldn't possibly succeed. But just like in the Bai family town, even while dreaming of ascension, it still doesn't change the fact that it remains the most unstable factor in the Nantong territory.

Perhaps, there is also a group of madmen here, dreaming of the impossible, yet capable of attracting the Heavenly Dao's attention.

They even go so far as to open the banquet, using the power of Jiang Shui to propel it, which truly stirs up trouble.

Such things, the Heavenly Dao can really make happen.

So, never try to reason with the Heavenly Dao emotionally.

"Alright, let's go back to sleep."

The next morning.

Li Zhiyuan woke up early.

Two strangers stood at the door, and the Array responded instinctively, allowing the young man to sense it.

Li Zhiyuan suspected they were the group who had been lurking around for days.

He first informed his companions to stay alert, but he didn't have them accompany him to the door.

He didn't want outsiders to see the reality of his team's current situation, after all, not everyone was as paranoid as Zhao Yi, and who knew if today's visitor was just some impulsive young fool.

Li Zhiyuan walked to the front door without stepping out beyond the line of pavement cracks.

At the door were two people, a tall, thin person carrying a young girl.

The girl's age seemed similar to his own.

It's rare to see peers during the River Walker days.

But perhaps the only similarity is the age, as the girl had a chubby, robust appearance, typical of a cherished granddaughter by her grandparents.

But when Li Zhiyuan examined her with the method of observing appearance, his first impression was not of her features, but of amazement at her terrifying bone and muscle density.

Is this still a human?

Beneath the girl was a tall, thin man, head lowered, but his dense sideburns were visible.

He wore black gloves, cloth shoes on his feet, with his fingers curled inward, and the tips of his cloth shoes protruding as if to grip the ground.

The girl, seeing Li Zhiyuan, let out a barbell-like laugh:

"Yahaha, you're so young, is this your real age?"

Clearly, just like Li Zhiyuan, the girl was surprised and curious to see a peer River Walker.

Li Zhiyuan asked her: "Would you like to come in for tea?"

The girl shook her head: "You've made the Array quite well, and you're not alone. It's a bit risky to fight inside."

As she spoke, she patted the head of the person carrying her, asking: "Right, A Yuan?"

The tall and thin person, called A Yuan, nodded.

Li Zhiyuan asked: "What intention does a friend have by being here?"

The girl: "Hey, aren't you curious about my name? Seeing a peer while walking in Jiang is really hard, don't you know?"

Walking in Jiang?

The girl's speech habits revealed her lineage.

Zhao Yi was sometimes embarrassed to openly claim walking in Jiang, as historically there was only one Dragon King from his family, and strictly speaking, Jiujiang Zhao wasn't recognized as part of the Dragon King family.

The girl: "My surname is Yu, I am Yu Miaomiao, and you?"

Surname Yu, Dragon King family.

Li Zhiyuan knew of the Yu family, whose ancestral home is in Luoyang, historically able to stand alongside the Qin and Liu families as Dragon King families.

During the last Dream Ghost incident, when Emperor Fengdu unleashed his fury, it was the Yu family who conveyed the message to Grandma Liu, indicating the aura came from the Southwest Fengdu direction.

However, the Yu family faced a scandal seventy years ago, causing them to close for sixty years, only returning to the Jianghu scene about a decade ago.

The Yu family, skilled in nurturing beasts and demons, so is the man beneath the girl still human?

"My surname is Li, and I am Li Zhiyuan."

The other didn't perform the greeting ceremony, so he didn't return the courtesy.

"Li Zhiyuan, Zhiyuan, what a nice-sounding name, your family seems more cultured than mine. My family calls me like a cat demon, meow meow here and there."

Li Zhiyuan was eager to know the real intentions of the other party.

Zhao Yi was only a half-hearted Dragon King family, but this person before him was the first real Dragon King family descendant he encountered while walking in Jiang.

Most importantly, although her age was not much, it couldn't be that she was dragged in by Jiang Shui like him. Her youth in Jiang suggested a prepared proactive choice.

Li Zhiyuan: "Why are you staying here at my place?"

Yu Miaomiao: "Waiting for someone."

"Waiting for whom?"

"Waiting for the person who 'robbed' the broken jade from you, waiting for them to be driven by desperation and return to you seeking protection, then I..."

Yu Miaomiao raised her head with difficulty, revealing a bit of her precious neck, and placed her hands in front, making a slicing motion:

"...will kill him and take the jade, hahaha."
