I am really not a medical immortal.-Chapter 1351 - 1350: Interception and Assassination (Third Update!)
A night passed without a word.
On the next day, at dawn’s break, the darkness was dispelled, and the first ray of sunlight shone from the horizon.
Zhang Xiaohao lazily opened his eyes, stretched leisurely, and walked out of the tent.
"Young master, you’re up," Xu Tianxing said with a smile.
"Yes! Why not sleep a little longer? We still have about an hour until eight," Zhang Xiaohao replied with a smile.
"I’m used to it," Xu Tianxing said.
"Hmm," Zhang Xiaohao nodded.
With a flip of the right hand, he took from the Shennong Ring the brush and other items for washing up and placed them on the ground.
He walked to a vacant area.
Zhang Xiaohao stomped his right foot on the ground, causing it to crack and reveal a gigantic pit three zhang deep and two meters wide.
"Snow Dance!" Zhang Xiaohao shouted.
Following his word, large snowflakes, as big as a hand, fell from the sky, and under Zhang Xiaohao’s control, landed in the gigantic pit.
Moments later, the huge pit three zhang deep was filled with pure white snowflakes.
"Melt!" Zhang Xiaohao commanded coldly.
With his words, the snowflakes in the pit transformed into sky-blue water, instantly filling the entire pit.
"Ah! Young master, is this completed?" Xu Tianxing said in surprise.
"Did you think it would be difficult? Stop dawdling, hurry up and wash!" Zhang Xiaohao said with a smile.
"Hmm," Xu Tianxing nodded.
Immediately, Zhang Xiaohao and Xu Tianxing each grabbed a brush and towel and approached the pit.
After washing up.
Zhang Xiaohao retrieved a twenty-pound piece of tiger meat from the Shennong Ring, cleaned it, and skewered it on the Fish Intestine Sword.
With a flip of his right hand, the World-purifying Heavenly Fire appeared in his palm.
"Go!" Zhang Xiaohao commanded coldly.
The World-purifying Heavenly Fire swirled and roasted towards the tiger meat.
Under the terrifying flames of the World-purifying Heavenly Fire, the tiger meat on the Fish Intestine Sword exuded a rich aroma.
After three minutes.
The tiger meat turned yellow, with a golden, crispy, and tender appearance like a work of art.
Zhang Xiaohao took out seasoning for barbecue, made with hundreds of years old Spiritual Medicine, and sprinkled it on the roasted tiger meat.
Suddenly, a more intense aroma wafted from the tiger meat.
"Hmm? Smells so good! Young master, this tiger meat is incredibly fragrant!" Xu Tianxing exclaimed.
"Nonsense! This is beast meat. Even the seasoning is made from dozens of hundred-year-old Spirit Medicine. If it isn’t delicious, then something’s wrong!" Zhang Xiaohao responded with mock annoyance.
"Hehe! Following Young Master certainly has its perks," Xu Tianxing casually flattered.
"Return," Zhang Xiaohao said.
With a single gesture, he recalled the World-purifying Heavenly Fire.
Then, using Shennong True Qi, he adjusted the tiger meat’s temperature, making it perfectly warm, not hot nor cold, and stopped.
"Let’s eat!" Zhang Xiaohao said with a smile.
He took and tossed aside half of the tiger meat, and threw over a bottle of Royal Salute.
Immediately, Zhang Xiaohao and Xu Tianxing began enjoying the fragrant and tender tiger meat while sipping red wine.
After half an hour.
Zhang Xiaohao and Xu Tianxing were fully sated.
"Alright, let’s go!" Zhang Xiaohao called.
"Yes, Young Master," Xu Tianxing replied.
Immediately, Zhang Xiaohao was about to perform his light skill, lightly tapping his foot to lead Xu Tianxing forward.
Just then, a violent battle cry sounded a few miles to the left front.
"Young master, what’s wrong?" Xu Tianxing asked when he saw Zhang Xiaohao stop.
"Someone’s fighting ahead, should we go take a look?" Zhang Xiaohao frowned.
"Young master, could they be targeting us? The choice of battle location seems too coincidental," Xu Tianxing expressed his concern.
"Whether it’s a coincidence, we’ll know once we check it out!" Zhang Xiaohao considered and replied.
"I’ll follow the young master," Xu Tianxing said.
"Let’s go!" Zhang Xiaohao said.
After speaking, he dashed towards the battle group ahead.
In less than a minute, they arrived at a distance of over three miles.
The two stood on a giant tree, watching the battle in front.
A hundred meters away, a group of black-clad individuals engaged in intense combat.
More than twenty black-clad figures besieged three black-clad individuals.
Fortunately, the three had deep cultivation, reaching the peak of the Void Transformation Realm, making them super experts. The twenty-plus attackers were only mid-stage or later-stage Void Transformation Realm super experts; otherwise, they would have already fallen amidst such numbers.
Three meters away from the combatants, a mysterious woman, hands carried behind her back and adorned with a black veil, watched coldly, her lofty demeanor suggesting she gave little regard to the three before her.
Simultaneously, a powerful aura of the Early Wheel Palace Realm emanated from her.
"Young master, their attire suggests they belong to the same sect; why are they clashing here?" Xu Tianxing asked, puzzled.
"Do you want to know?" Zhang Xiaohao replied with a question.
"I’m curious," Xu Tianxing said.
"If you want to know, capture them and interrogate them harshly. Then you’ll find out," Zhang Xiaohao said with a smile.
Whoosh!
Without hiding his Early Wheel Palace Realm aura, he aggressively suppressed the group of black-clad individuals a hundred meters away.
At the same time, he transformed into lightning, landing opposite the group in a few flashes.
As Zhang Xiaohao landed, Xu Tianxing followed suit.
"Interesting! I never expected to see such a show in the wild," Zhang Xiaohao commented playfully.
Seeing Zhang Xiaohao and Xu Tianxing arrive, the battling group of black-clad individuals halted.
"Ah! Are you Lord Zhang, Zhang Xiaohao?" Suddenly, among the three individuals, one spoke excitedly.
"Hmm? Do you know me?" Zhang Xiaohao asked, puzzled.
He felt an amusing sense of disbelief, surprised that he was so famous that any wanderer could recognize him.
"Lord, I’m Xiao Yu!" One black-clad person exclaimed.
"Hmm? Xiao Yu? Do I know you?" Zhang Xiaohao asked, confused.
"Oh! Lord, see how forgetful I am; I forgot to explain. I’m one of the young master’s subordinates, and this time I came to deliver a batch of cultivation items to you per his instructions. Before coming, the young master showed me over a hundred photographs of you, featuring your various handsome poses!" Xiao Yu, the black-clad person, explained.
