Chapter 263 Isn't an ultimate move also a skill? You still have to attack with an auto-attack.
The following day, in Xuan Ziwen's laboratory.
Xuan Ziwen tapped his forehead, which was a little sore from cultivating immortality last night, but the gentle tapping did not relieve the pain between his brows.
"Did you cultivate immortality again last night? Here, I have a cup of excellent calming tea. It'll take effect after just one cup. Why don't you try it, Lao Xuan?" Ye Nanxiao took out a thermos and handed it to Xuan Ziwen with his standard smile on his face.
Glancing at the thermos in his hand, Xuan Ziwen said with a headache, "What are you up to now? Just tell me your purpose, or you can just stay somewhere cool!"
"Okay, I need to ask for leave. Can you approve it for me?" Ye Nanxiao said.
Xuan Ziwen put down the thermos in his hand, turned around and left, stirring up a gentle breeze.
Ye Nanxiao placed a hand on Xuan Ziwen's shoulder and said with a sinister smile, "Old Xuan, you can't do this. Taking a gift and not doing anything in return? That's a difficult situation!"
"I didn't take your 'spirit-preserving tea,' I didn't accept any gifts!" Xuan Ziwen said with his back to Ye Nanxiao.
"A 'Health-Preserving Tea Set Meal' that comes with a free family bucket of fried chicken and three cases of soda." Ye Nanxiao held up three fingers and waved them in front of Xuan Ziwen.
Xuan Ziwen turned around, picked up the thermos, pulled up a chair, sat down, crossed his legs, and slowly sipped the tea in the pot. "The tea is not bad, the flavor is quite strong. I guess I won't need to take a nap later. Tell me, what do you need to do? If you're going to blow up Mingdu, then you should go ask Jing Hongchen for leave."
Xuan Ziwen had already heard about Ye Nanxiao's restlessness from Fan Yu. He was afraid that if he released the fox from its cage, he would receive news tonight that the city had been blown up by a terrifying madman who was trying to harm him.
Especially the bombs Ye Nanxiao has been frantically making lately to replenish his private stockpile!
"Ahem, it's not as bad as blowing up Mingdu!" Ye Nanxiao coughed awkwardly twice.
Xuan Ziwen put down the thermos without expression and disappeared in a blur.
"Hey! I just need to ask for leave to go back to the academy!" Ye Nanxiao shouted towards the door.
"You should have said so earlier! You promised a whole bucket of fried chicken and three cases of soda!" Xuan Ziwen immediately sat back down in his chair, calmly sipping his tea.
Ye Nanxiao [.]
Seeing Ye Nanxiao walk out with a sigh, Ju Zi reached out and tossed him a purple-skinned orange.
Huo Yuhao saw that Ye Nanxiao, who was clearly dejected, suddenly became energetic after seeing the purple orange thrown by Senior Sister Ju Zi. He jumped up, caught the purple orange, and landed after a few somersaults.
"Um, Senior Keke, how long has my brother been suffering from this illness—no, how long has this condition lasted?" Huo Yuhao asked Keke, who was sitting next to him, in a low voice.
Keke chuckled and said, "It was like this before you came. Ye Nanxiao really likes oranges. Although the purple-skinned oranges made from oranges are indeed quite delicious, I feel like Ye Nanxiao is addicted to them."
"What's wrong? Looks like your blackmail failed. Did the cunning fox slip up?" Orange asked, fiddling with a strand of hair that fell to her chest.
Ye Nanxiao nodded and swallowed the fruit in his mouth. "Old Xuan has been overdoing his cultivation lately. His current cultivation level is beyond my reach, so naturally I was defeated."
"This is the first time I've seen the teacher win. You seem pretty down right now. Do you want me to comfort you? Of course, that's only if you sincerely call me 'senior'!" Orange said with a smile.
Ye Nanxiao blinked, quickly stuffed the remaining pulp into his mouth, chewed a few times, then looked at the orange with disgust. "Little Orange is up to its old tricks again? You think you can bribe me with just a purple orange?"
As soon as she finished speaking, spirit rings rose from Ju Zi's body, and with a gentle flick of her jade fingers, a small "mountain" appeared in the laboratory.
"Okay, senior, thank you!" Ye Nanxiao took out two large sacks and filled them with all the purple-skinned oranges.
Orange's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and the curve of her lips was quite lovely.
"Only two calls? That's not enough sincerity, junior. You should at least call me 'senior' a few more times so I can hear it." Orange leaned against a soul guidance experiment table, arms crossed, her eyes seemingly filled with a pool of autumn water.
After putting away the two large sacks of purple-skinned oranges, Ye Nanxiao touched the surface of the sacks, and a faint magic circle pattern appeared on the surface of the sacks.
Seeing this, Orange's eyes lit up. She took a few steps forward, approached the sack, and asked, "Any new gadgets? Can I play with a few?"
Just as Ju Zi reached out to touch the sack, Ye Nanxiao preemptively put it into his storage ring. His expression turned indifferent, and he blew on it with his right hand, coughing lightly. "Want some? Call me 'senior' a few times and let me hear it."
"You stinky fox!" A crossroads suddenly appeared on Orange's fair forehead. Without thinking, she reached out and grabbed Ye Nanxiao's ear.
"Damn it, what are you doing, Ju Xiaohan! Let go of me, or I'll teach you a lesson!" Ye Nanxiao grabbed Ju Zi's wrist and threatened.
Huo Yuhao held a core magic array in his hand. He originally wanted to take out a handful of melon seeds from his belt to eat some, but after seeing Ye Nanxiao's threatening gaze, he decided to memorize it for now and eat it later when his cultivation level improved.
Taking out two wads of cotton with one hand, Huo Yuhao walked to the inner laboratory, stuffed the cotton into his ears, and muttered, "I can't hear you, I can't hear you!"
Seeing this, Keke quickly jogged to catch up with Huo Yuhao. It was risky to gossip alone; she had to stick with the crowd.
"With your strength, even if you use all your strength, I won't feel any pain. Why make things difficult for yourself?" Ye Nanxiao grinned and said. To avoid having his ears stretched, Ye Nanxiao could only tilt his head and move in the direction of the orange's force.
"You stinky fox!"
Suddenly, Ye Nanxiao felt his head bump against something soft.
When Ye Nanxiao realized his situation, he instantly stiffened, swallowed hard, and didn't dare to move.
He was an acquaintance of Tuanzi.
Ju Zi noticed her actions and quickly let go of Ye Nanxiao, gently pushing him away. Two blushes rose on her pretty face, and her delicate earlobes turned bright red.
Ye Nanxiao touched his ear. "By the way, there's something important."
Orange crossed her arms, looked at Ye Nanxiao, and asked, "What is it?"
"How much do you know about evil spirit masters?" Ye Nanxiao asked, pulling out a silencing bead.
"An evil spirit master?" Ju Zi frowned slightly, her beautiful eyes fixed on Ye Nanxiao. "Don't tell me you've set your sights on evil spirit masters this time?"
"Are you aware that there are strongholds of evil spirit masters in Mingdu?" Ye Nanxiao asked.
"I know there are quite a few evil soul masters operating in the shadows within the Xi Shui Alliance, but I must remind you that the Xi Shui Alliance was once able to hold back both An Litong and Shangguan Wei'er on its own. Moreover, the person behind the Xi Shui Alliance has built a tight-knit shell around it, making it impossible for my people to gather any intelligence," Ju Zi said, a hint of killing intent flashing in her eyes.
"They seem to possess a kind of mind control magic; those who infiltrate them either become their slaves or are killed."
"And dealing with evil spirit masters will be extremely difficult!"
"Have any ministers in the imperial court come into contact with evil spirit masters?" Ye Nanxiao asked.
"How did you know?" Orange was slightly taken aback, then said, "I only found out about this information in the last few days."
"How much do you know about the situation in the court?" Ye Nanxiao asked.
Ju Zi shook her head. "I only know the general outline of matters in the imperial court; I cannot obtain specific information."
Although she has the right to build her own power, if she actively touches Xu Tianran's sensitive nerves, then all her plans and preparations will be in vain.
Even though she really wanted to help Ye Nanxiao.
Ye Nanxiao understood Ju Zi's concerns after a moment's thought and nodded, "I understand. There is a branch altar of an evil soul master in Mingdu, and I plan to eliminate it."
"Get rid of it? Things have been pretty peaceful underground lately, I haven't heard anything about it?" Orange asked in confusion.
The activities of evil spirit masters have absolutely nothing to do with the interests of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce. Moreover, the Aodu Chamber of Commerce is still an underground giant. The Xishui Alliance has very strict control over its members, otherwise it would not be so well-managed that even its spies could not find out any information.
"We'll have to face each other sooner or later." Ye Nanxiao waved his hand.
Ju Zi bit her lip, then looked at Ye Nanxiao with a smile and said, "Then be careful, don't come back with bruises all over your face."
Ye Nanxiao stared with dead fish eyes, pinched his face with both hands, and forced a smile.
Watching Ye Nanxiao's departing figure, a strange feeling rose in Ju Zi's heart.
"Be careful! Come back safely!"
The words were on the tip of her tongue, but Ju Zi swallowed them back down.
It was evening.
Dressed in a black outfit, Nana walked out of the gates of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy.
Using his mental simulation, Huo Yuhao hid himself and He Caitou in Nana's shadow and followed Nana out the door.
After walking into a deserted alley, Nana cautiously observed her surroundings before Huo Yuhao deactivated his simulated soul skill.
He Caitou said with some worry, "Nanxiao has already gone ahead of us, we need to hurry."
Huo Yuhao nodded, checked the list of weapons they were carrying with He Caitou, nodded to each other, and then He Caitou turned and disappeared into the darkness.
"Alright, let's go. Let's finish this as quickly as possible." Huo Yuhao once again disappeared into Nana's shadow.
Nana nodded and quickly walked towards the location of the Evil Soul Master branch.
It is a cluster of courtyards hidden among high-rise buildings, far from the center of Mingdu City.
A figure silently floated onto a black-roofed building. The courtyard was filled with tall plants that densely blocked the view.
Through the gaps between the plants, one could vaguely see several pairs of people wearing black hoods patrolling.
Even from time to time, sentries would drop down from the rooftops and then leave.
However, these sentries all ignored the figure floating on the roof.
Wearing a disguise mask that read "Xiao Nanye," Ye Nanxiao followed a sentry and quietly slipped into a skylight.
Below the skylight was a simple attic where three sentries were resting.
Ye Nanxiao followed a sentry into the pavilion. He narrowed his eyes and disappeared from the spot as he looked at the three sentries who were resting against the wall.
A finger, as if cast from millennia-old jade, gently touched the back of the three people's necks.
In an instant, the three evil soul masters, whose cultivation was at the fourth ring, felt a chill, and then their consciousness was plunged into eternal darkness.
"Hey guys, could you please brew another pot of tea after you've finished it? I'm exhausted from patrolling the rooftops, my throat's practically burning!"
The last remaining sentry complained, holding a teapot in his hand. Just as he was about to turn around to complain, he suddenly felt a great chill on his neck. Then, while still half-turned, the life force in his body was extinguished in an instant.
After quickly learning about the four sentries, Ye Nanxiao cracked his neck, his eyes gleaming with a blue light.
"There are two energy reactions at the Soul Emperor level underground." The ice mirror beside Ye Nanxiao adjusted its angle slightly, concealing Ye Nanxiao's figure in the air.
Upon entering the building, two young men dressed in white without hoods were standing in front of a wooden table.
Ye Nanxiao revealed himself and, to the astonishment of the two youths, placed his hands on their foreheads.
The next second, two young men, covered in a light layer of frost, sat on chairs on either side of the table, in the same posture as a middle-aged man with anesthetic injections in his neck sleeping outside.
His mental energy spread out and quickly located the mechanism at the table. Ye Nanxiao pressed down on the table, and a passage was immediately revealed in the wall.
Ye Nanxiao's figure disappeared into the air again, a piece of floating ice rose beneath his feet, and he drifted into the passage.
The passageway was short, only about four or five meters long, and at the end was an exceptionally spacious hall.
The walls of the hall were covered with strange symbols.
In the middle of the hall, there was a large table covered with dishes.
Two burly men dressed in white, tight-fitting clothes with strange silver symbols engraved on their robes were drinking.
The two were none other than the Great Holy Spirit and the Second Holy Spirit, who were guarding this branch.
The two Holy Spirits sitting on the right suddenly sensed something and glanced in the direction of the passageway.
"What's wrong, Second Brother?" asked the Great Holy Spirit sitting on the left.
"I just felt something strange, like someone was standing in front of us, observing us for a long time," the Second Holy Spirit said.
Upon hearing this, the Great Holy Spirit put down the wine jug in his hand, and his soul power rippled outwards.
A moment later, the Great Holy Spirit withdrew his soul power and picked up the wine jug again. "There's no one here. Have you been going without sleep for too long? Are you a little stressed?"
The Second Holy Spirit looked around in confusion. He had a strange feeling that there seemed to be an extra person in the hall, but when he activated his soul skill, the feedback was that there was nothing.
"Perhaps we've been capturing souls a bit too frequently lately?" The Second Holy Spirit reached for the wine jug on the table, but his eyes were fixed on the direction of the passageway.
As soon as he picked up the wine jug, a deep blue longsword materialized out of thin air before his eyes.
"Enemy attack!"
As soon as the Second Holy Spirit spoke, a massive, deep blue sword aura froze him in ice.
The Great Holy Spirit reacted quickly, and six spirit rings instantly appeared on his body, with a small flag floating above his head.
The moment the small flag appeared, the entire hall was filled with the wails of vengeful spirits.
Clumps of vengeful spirits transformed into a stream of energy, merging together to form a thick white shield that shielded the Great Holy Spirit.
Ye Nanxiao coldly watched all of this, then pushed off with his feet, his figure bursting forth.
"Even the soul will be frozen."
In the Great Holy Spirit's wide-eyed gaze, a silver-white figure gently patted him, and a cold voice rang in his ears.
"Even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit, so naturally, a basic attack should be accompanied by a powerful move."
