Chapter 628: The Mysterious Man in Black

t even end up consumed by it as well." Ge Changting explained, adding that he had experience refining skeletons before and was somewhat familiar with the process."However, if senior could provide eno...The commotion of the battle between two eighth-rank demon beasts quickly alarmed the entire Lord Wei Hou's mansion. At this time, the second son, Cao Bao, was not at home all night, and no one knew where he had gone to visit other mansions, or perhaps he was out with his friends looking for flowers and asking about willows.

The only one who can stabilize the situation is Cao Kun. Cao Kun immediately dispatched people to inform the guards of Wusheng City. 。But the guards would still take some time to arrive. The flower thief with a silver orchid emblem on his black forehead cloth had already lifted Cao Xier and leaped into the air, carrying her away. 。"The Silver Orchid Thief!" Cao Kun, with his extensive experience and knowledge, immediately recognized the black-clad person's identity. Seeing Cao Xier, her face flushed red and clad only in a light gauze that barely covered her body, in an almost unconscious state, it was clear that she had fallen victim to the Silver Orchid Thief's methods. 。Cao Xier's pair of plump, lustrous thighs were still exposed, swaying outside her clothes. Seeing Yinlan the bandit abduct his young mistress, Cao Kun was instantly distraught, his eyes bulging with fury. Marshal Zhenwei had entrusted him with the affairs of the household before leaving, yet he couldn't even protect his own mistress. How could he possibly face Marshal Zhenwei after this 。"Hehehe, you guys have ruined my good deed, Zhen Wei Hou. Now I've taken a bit of a loss, so let him get away with this once." 。The Silver Orchid Thief laughed, his speed increasing even further. 。

And with that, he swatted Cao Kun with a palm strike.

A crystalline giant handprint hovered in the air. Just the chill emanating from it was enough to freeze a Qi Refinement cultivator solid. Although Cao Kun charged forward recklessly, disregarding his own life, there was an insurmountable chasm between a Qi Refinement cultivator and a Golden Core cultivator. 。Even Lü Xiaoteng, when he was at his peak in the Great Perfection stage of Foundation Establishment, couldn't withstand a single strike from Zhou Tong. How much less so for Cao Kun now 。

Before the ice crystal could even fall, Cao Kun and several nearby cultivators at the Qi Refining stage were already frozen stiff by the cold, unable to move.

Cao Kun's face was ashen, his eyes filled with pain and despair. 。Even the city guards of this unparalleled time, were unable to arrive in time. 。If the Third Miss's chastity is lost, he will be unable to atone for it even if he dies a hundred times. 。But this is fine too. To die under his hand means I won't have to face Marquis Zhenwei anymore. 。But just at that moment, another figure in black appeared on the scene. 。The man in black was slightly thin, only showing a pair of eyes. 。A light palm strike dispelled the ice hand that had been pressing down from the air. 。That biting chill, enough to freeze a Foundation Establishment cultivator solid, was also neutralized by a warm current. 。"Which way, friend, dares to speak of my Silver Orchid Thief affairs" 。Enemies are easy to make but hard to break. I advise my friends not to meddle in other people's affairs, otherwise they will get burned. 。"Seeing the enemy appear suddenly, Silver Orchid Thief's feet couldn't help but hesitate. He had planned to retreat first himself, followed by Stone Monkey. However, it seemed that if he left first, with one more black-clad man present, his long-armed Stone Monkey would surely be torn to shreds." 。He could remain carefree until now, thanks to his formidable long-armed stone monkey who played a crucial role. The Silver Orchid Bandit naturally wouldn't part with this spirit beast that he had raised for over two hundred years. 。Realizing that the visitor was no ordinary person, the Silver Orchid Thief, Yin Lan, stopped before the man in black could catch up. 。But before he even landed, the man in black made a gesture with his hand, and suddenly he had a red longbow in his grasp. He bent it back and nocked an arrow. 。The terrifying aura suffocated the Silver Lan Bandit who was targeted. 。The confrontation between the two Jindan masters also woke up Cao Xi'er, who was originally drowsy. Seeing that she was only covered in a thin veil all over her body, she felt both ashamed and angry. But at this time, she had been restrained by the Silver Orchid Bandit, her body soft and powerless, she could only watch the development of the situation. Not far away, Di Youquan fought with a long-armed stone monkey that was jumping up and down. The entire Monkey Mansion was in disarray due to the battle between the two Jindan-level spirit beasts. 。

Father has already taken all the masters from Hou Mansion to fight in the Black Heaven Mountain Range. There aren't any other masters in the mansion right now, but this new black-cloaked person who appeared is clearly not on the same side as those who tried to abduct me.

But it couldn't be someone from the Marquis's Mansion, for the Marquis's Mansion no longer had a Golden Core expert residing there at this time. 。Startled, the Silver Orchid Thief drew out a silver orchid soft sword and waved it, creating waves of sword energy like blooming orchids - beautiful yet deadly. 。In the blink of an eye, the newcomers in black attire around him bloomed like a circle of orchids. 。But the murderous aura blooming on the orchid was enough to make a Foundation Establishment cultivator feel the air itself congealing. 。Stifle all life. 。The newcomer in black made no unnecessary movements. He drew his bow forward, an arrow shot out straight ahead, piercing the air with a whoosh. The stunningly beautiful orchid cluster before him instantly shattered like bubbles in water, torn apart by the force. But the arrow, like a meteor chasing the moon, flew straight towards Silver Orchid Bandit. 。

The Silver Orchid Thief was startled and no longer cared about Cao Xi'er. This black-clothed man had set his sights on him. Even though he used Cao Xi'er as a shield, her frail body couldn't possibly hinder him, and it would even prevent him from acting freely.

Feeling the threat brought by the men in black, Silver Orchid Thief directly threw Cao Xi'er aside, letting her fall from the air. Although Cao Xi'er was renowned for her beauty, how could she compare to the importance of her own life 。The Silver Orchid Thief felt the power of the arrow, and with both hands he pushed forward, thrusting his soft sword... 。The soft sword shattered into pieces in the air, instantly forming a giant silver orchid. The fragments bloomed with wisps of chilling air that felt almost tangible, like icy tentacles reaching out to lash against the black-clad figure as he launched an arrow. 。

The biting cold swept in like whips, striking relentlessly against the emptiness. Arrows roared like fire dragons.

While Cao Xier was distracted, the man in black struck with a soft palm, pushing her gently towards Cao Kun. 。Under the immense joy of the moment, Cao Kun knew this mysterious cloaked figure, though unknown in origin, was undoubtedly well-intentioned. He hurriedly retrieved a clean garment from his storage bag and helped Cao Xi'er put it on. 。"Kunber, what is the background of this man in black" At this time, Cao Xier, out of curiosity, asked Cao Kun. 。"I don't know either. The Golden Core masters of the Hou Mansion have all gone to war with the Marquis, and if they were acquaintances of the Hou Mansion, they would have appeared long ago. And I mostly know the Marquis's acquaintances, none of whom are skilled archers, and none whose power is so astonishing." 。The other party was unwilling to reveal their identity, probably due to some inconvenience. However, since they were able to save Miss San at this time, it seems they have no ill intentions towards us. 。"Cao Kun's eyes also held a hint of confusion, he racked his brains but couldn't figure out who the attacker was." 。"This Yinlan Great Thief is truly despicable, but his magic power is indeed profound and unparalleled. I wonder..." Cao Xi'er saw a flash of worry in the eyes of the black-clothed fighter and the Yinlan Great Thief as they fought fiercely. 。“Miss Third, there is no need to worry. This new black-clad man forced the Silver Orchid Bandit to abandon Miss Third, and even in a desperate situation, he still had the strength to save Miss Third. It is clear that he did not use his full power. Although the Silver Orchid Bandit is formidable, he may not be a match for the black-clad man.” 。Cao Kun said 。Cao Xier lightly hummed in agreement, believing a few points of Cao Kun's words. Although Cao Kun was only a Foundation Establishment cultivator at this time, he was once a Golden Core cultivator after all, and his eyesight was not something ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators could compare to. 。u Xiaottian's most frequent activity at this time was sparring with Ao Guang, Tuo Mu Sheng and the others, honing his True Dragon War Technique. Without wielding the Fang Tianhua Halberd or deliberate...
