Hai Bodong went to inquire about the ruin in person and returned soon.
The situation of the ruin is not very clear at the moment. The Blackwood Mountains are a dangerous mountain range with seventh-level magic beasts roaming there all year round. Normally, no one dares to go up there.
The ruin was unearthed last night, bringing with it a huge fire that set nearly the entire mountain range on fire. The flames haven't gone out yet, so no one dares to go in.
Everyone had to wait until the flames were out before going in.
"Old Hai, even with your Ice Dou Qi, you can't put out the forest fire above?" Jiang Ping asked.
Hai Bodong smiled bitterly and said:
"Pavillion Master, don't think I'm so powerful. Although I am cultivating Ice Dou Qi, I don't have the ability to put out a wildfire that has spread across the entire mountain range in one go."
"Moreover, that mountain fire is not an ordinary flame. It should be some kind of beast fire. It is very strong. My Frost Dou Qi may not be its opponent."
"Beast fire?... Then it seems that there is indeed a magic beast in the ruin." Jiang Ping pondered for a moment and finally decided to wait.
The three decided to find a place to stay in the small town.
But now the whole town is full of people. The restaurant, which usually has little business, is now overcrowded and there are no rooms available at all.
The only rooms were occupied by the first group of people who arrived.
Jiang Ping and his two companions looked for several places, but in the end they still couldn't find a place to live.
Just when they were about to find a place to stay, they met someone they knew.
"Hahaha, Pavilion Master Jiang, you are here as expected."
Black Emperor Sect's Sect Master Mo Tianxing is here too.
"Sect Master Mo, so you are here too." Jiang Ping smiled slightly.
"I have just arrived here. I see Pavilion Master Jiang seems to be looking for a room. I have two empty rooms upstairs. If Pavilion Master Jiang doesn't mind, you can stay here." Mo Tianxing said with a smile.
Jiang Ping was not polite either. Since someone offered to give him a free room, how could he not stay there?
"Then thank you very much, Sect Master Mo."
Mo Tianxing's purpose was also very simple - to show goodwill to Jiang Ping.
The current Qianling Pavilion is not something that the Black Emperor Sect can afford to provoke. After the auction, the fate of Old Ying Shan and others was a bloody lesson.
At this point, if anyone still dares to offend Qianling Pavilion, they will undoubtedly be seeking their own death.
Mo Tianxing definitely didn't want the Black Emperor Sect to get into big trouble, so some necessary gestures of goodwill were still necessary.
Jiang Ping and Hai Bodong were both aware of this and accepted it with peace of mind.
"Thank you very much for your kindness, Sect Master Mo."
Many of the people present were not from the Black Corner Region.
But he still knew Mo Tianxing, a veteran strongman in the Black Corner Region.
Many people were shocked to see him showing such an attitude towards an unbelievably young man.
"Isn't that Mo Tianxing from the Black Emperor Sect? Who are those other people that he treats in this way?"
"Hey, you don't know them? That's the leader of Qianling Pavilion, Jiang Ping!"
"He is the leader of Qianling Pavilion? He is so young?"
"Indeed, quite young yet so powerful. Besides the people from Qianling Pavilion, do you think there is anyone else who can make Mo Tianxing show this attitude?"
Those who knew the situation explained it to those who didn't, and even felt smug because they knew Jiang Ping.
Others who were not from the Black Corner Region were also surprised by Jiang Ping's true identity.
But the main character of today's event is obviously not Jiang Ping, but the ruin.
Everyone's attention was focused on the ruin.
...
There are two rooms, Hai Bodong got in one room, and Jiang Ping and Xiao Yixian got in the other one.
This restaurant is the tallest restaurant in the entire town. Looking out from the window of the room, they can vaguely see the mountains in the distance. At this time, there is a continuous flame that has burned the entire mountain range.
"It seems that we really have to wait until the flames are extinguished before we can go in. I just don't know how much of the ruin can be preserved after the fire." Xiao Yixian said.
"Real good things won't be burned by fire so easily. We just need to wait patiently." Jiang Ping took a look at the wildfire and then looked away.
With just one glance, he could tell that the blazing flame was indeed not an ordinary flame, but a kind of beast fire.
And that was not ordinary beast fire. In terms of strength, this kind of beast fire was second only to Heavenly Flame, and it was definitely not something that ordinary magic beast could possess.
There must be an eighth-level magic beast in the ruin!
"Are you so confident? I see that many people came to grab the ruin this time. Just now downstairs, I found a lot of hidden auras. They must be Dou Ancestor masters."
"If it's just Dou Ancestor, then there's really nothing to worry about. Do you think I'd be afraid of just a few Dou Ancestors?"
With his three thousand incarnations, it would be useless even if three or five Dou Ancestors came.
What's more, now that his Torch Dragon has been promoted to the eighth-level, a Dou Ancestor is no longer taken seriously.
But one thing that really concerns him is that this small town secretly hides many beings that are more powerful than Dou Ancestor.
Those who hide in the dark are what Jiang Ping really cares about.
They hid very well, but they couldn't hide it from Jiang Ping.
He had a feeling that this time the ruin would be really fun!
"Indeed, few Dou Ancestors are no match for you."
Thinking of the day when Jiang Ping's clones beat up the old man Ying Shan, Xiao Yixian felt relieved.
And not even mentioning a few Dou Ancestors. Back in the Bitter Sea Desert, he even killed the eighth-level Bitter Sea Snake, so he is surely not afraid of a few Dou Ancestors.
"All we need to do now is rest and wait for the fire to die down."
Jiang Ping stretched and lay down on the only big bed in the room.
"What are you doing?!" Xiao Yixian quickly pulled him up.
"Going to sleep."
"If you you sleep here, where would I sleep?"
"I mean I don't mind sleeping together." Jiang Ping grinned.
"Who wants to sleep with you?!" Xiao Yixian blushed and quickly pulled him up.
"Hurry up, I don't want to sleep with you."
She pulled Jiang Ping up and wanted to kick him out.
Jiang Ping was pulled up by her, but suddenly turned around and grabbed her wrist and pressed her under him.
The two looked into each other's eyes, their breaths intertwined.
Xiao Yixian's mind went blank instantly, and she stared at Jiang Ping in a daze. After a while, she said blankly:
"Wh... what are you doing?"
"What do you think?" Jiang Ping's lips curled up into an evil smile.
"You...you don't do anything rash." Xiao Yixian's eyes were panicked. She struggled symbolically but was completely powerless.
Jiang Ping slowly leaned over and gently kissed the girl's thin lips.
Xiao Yixian was stunned for a moment, her delicate body trembled slightly, and she even forgot to resist.
At this moment, it seemed as if the whole world had become blank.
She didn't react until Jiang Ping stood up.
"See, you clearly think the same thing in your heart, but you're still being so stubborn."
Jiang Ping's words made Xiao Yixian blush completely.
"You're asking for a fight!"
