Supreme Dragon Seal

Suddenly, Qi Bei felt a slight expansion in the Dragon Seal on his hand. The internal energy in his dantian surged, and his whole body was suddenly full of vigor. The thing between his legs even showed signs of rising.

Obviously, this was the result of the extreme Yang energy increasing.

Qi Bei’s thoughts turned quickly, and he suddenly withdrew his hand, staring at the fake belly with burning eyes. He had just absorbed a trace of energy from inside, which made his internal energy rise quickly, and at the same time, the extreme Yang energy naturally increased. He dared not continue to absorb it because once the extreme Yang energy got out of control, where could he find a woman with an extreme Yin physique to balance it?

Although Huan Ying beside him occasionally emitted a trace of extreme Yin energy when clearing her blocked meridians, it was probably only when all twelve meridians were completely cleared that her Yin physique would fully awaken.

“I didn’t expect the Dragon Seal to have such a function, but I don’t know what kind of special force is sealed inside it. Could it be an ancient life form?” Qi Bei thought, but he actually didn’t know that when he drilled into the head of that blood octopus in the Undead Mountain Range, the Dragon Seal on his left hand had absorbed nearly two-thirds of its magic core.

Qi Bei shook his head, feeling a bit regretful. If he hadn’t let that Goth woman escape, it would have been much easier.

“Young master, what are you thinking about?” Seeing Qi Bei dazed for a long time, Huan Ying asked worriedly.

Qi Bei raised his hand and held the small hand that was pinching his shoulder.

Huan Ying blushed slightly, remembering the ambiguous incident with Qi Bei in the tent that day, and her body couldn’t help but feel a little hot.

Qi Bei pulled Huan Ying over, and with a slight force of his hand, Huan Ying cried out and sat on his lap.

“You…young master…what do you want to do?” Huan Ying stammered, her beautiful eyes dodging around, not daring to meet Qi Bei’s hot gaze that made her heart beat faster.

“What do I want to do? This young master wants to…do you!” Qi Bei smirked, pinching Huan Ying’s chin with his hand.

This almost obscene sentence made Huan Ying lose all her strength, and she became limp in Qi Bei’s arms. Her two rows of white teeth lightly bit into his shoulder.

Seeing the shy look of Huan Ying allowing him to do whatever he wanted, Qi Bei, who had only intended to tease her, suddenly became restless, and his dragon began to rise, pressing against Huan Ying’s private part.

It’s dangerous, Qi Bei was conflicted. He had provoked the flames of desire. If Huan Ying already had a complete Yin physique, he would have turned into a wolf and swallowed this little sheep. 

But, she didn’t yet, did she?

Qi Bei picked up Huan Ying and walked step by step toward the big bed in the tent.

“Young master…” Huan Ying called out like a cat, her body trembling nervously.

“Huan Ying, sit cross-legged, and this young master will help you clear your meridians.” Qi Bei put Huan Ying on the bed and spoke seriously.

Huan Ying blinked in confusion and suddenly let out a soft “ah” sound, thinking that she had misunderstood the young master’s intentions, feeling shy and embarrassed.

It was all the young master’s fault; he was clearly doing it on purpose. Huan Ying quickly realized this and gave Qi Bei a resentful look before sitting cross-legged.

Qi Bei helplessly smiled and began to clear Huan Ying’s meridians.

Early the next morning, the wind and snow had subsided a bit, and the caravan travelers set off as if they were avoiding the plague.

“What did you find out?” Qi Bei asked Lie Feng. The Black Armored Army often used torture to extract information from captured enemy soldiers and was quite skilled in this area.

“Lord, those three Goth merchants were all cowards who have revealed their ancestors’ identities for the past eighteen generations. But they truly didn’t know the identity and purpose of the Goth couple. They just formed a caravan to trade with a force called Blood Wolves in the West Spirit City.” Lie Feng said.

Blood Wolves was one of the three major forces in West Spirit City, with the other two being Starfall and Shadow Clan.

“What about the escorts?” Qi Bei asked.

“They are a medium-sized mercenary group from the south, led by a man named Lone Eye, an Intermediate warrior with a lot of combat experience. They injured several of our brothers.” Lie Feng said.

“I see. Let Lone Eye join us and send a letter to him to bring all his subordinates from the south to West Spirit City.” Qi Bei said.

“Lord, what about the three merchants?” Lie Feng asked.

Qi Bei pondered for a moment, his eyes gradually lighting up. “Take them with us; they still have some use.”

In no time, Lone Eye, who was covered in wounds but still stood tall, came to Qi Bei’s side and bowed. “Lone Eye is willing to follow the Lord and will never betray you in this life.”

Qi Bei looked at Lone Eye and asked indifferently, “Don’t you hate this young master for killing so many of your brothers?”

Lone Eye shook his head and said, “As mercenaries, we are always risking our lives for others. This caravan hired us, and we protected them in a cooperative relationship. Our brothers died to protect the caravan, and this is the fate of a mercenary. We are now joining the Lord’s command and will always be the Lord’s blade. The blade will never betray its master.”

Qi Bei laughed heartily and patted Lone Eye’s shoulder. Indeed, mercenaries were a unique group. Perhaps they had fought for one force against another when hired, but after the contract was over, they might be hired by the previous enemy force. This was normal in the mercenary world.

“Lone Eye, you often travel to the northwest border and should be familiar with the situation in West Spirit City,” Qi Bei asked. When he came, he had specifically inquired about the situation in West Spirit City, but not in detail.

“Replying to the Lord, I am quite familiar with West Spirit City and its intricacies,” Lone Eye replied. “Ordinary mercenaries only travel on a few familiar routes, so they naturally know all the ins and outs of those routes.”

Lone Eye began to explain the situation in West Spirit City to Qi Bei, including the different factions, their relationships, and the relationships between factions.

“My lord, that’s all I know. Oh, by the way, the three elf girls we saw in the sheltered valley earlier are from West Spirit City,” Lone Eye said.

Qi Bei frowned. He had noticed the three elf girls, who were indeed extremely beautiful, but at the time, he did not observe them too closely.

Presumably, by now, the major factions in West Spirit City had heard of his plan to take over the city. The appearance of the Black Armored soldiers in this area would certainly make people think of his identity. Those three elf girls probably had already guessed his identity.

Obviously, if he wanted to take over West Spirit City, he would have to eliminate these factions, which would make him the common enemy of all the factions in West Spirit City.

Originally, Qi Bei had planned to pretend to be in a Goth merchant caravan and do business with the Blood Wolf faction, but he would have to come up with another plan now.

However, just as Qi Bei was thinking about this, he saw the three elf girls who had left suddenly reappear in the sheltered valley.
