Chapter 1152: Osaaya

This narrative mission indeed attracted many masters from the Central Plains, but the appearance of the Xifeng Tower’s men raised suspicions among many players. The Shadow Group was large in number and highly skilled, clearly surpassing all the martial artists present. Under such a formidable threat, many people showed caution and hostility, staring at them with displeasure.

Shadow naturally sensed the unwelcoming atmosphere in the inn but continued to observe around indifferently. The people of the Western Regions were fierce, and since this place was near the border, the influence of the Xifeng Tower wasn’t very strong here.

“Madam, we want the private room over there…”

Wu Kuo seemed to have been to the Longmen Inn before and knew its rules. He promptly threw two gold ingots to bribe the greedy gold-inlaid-jade attendant to clear the room—the one on the left. His tone was decisive, revealing the Xifeng Tower’s domineering style!

However, the NPCs would pay for their own problems, but they clearly weren’t willing to cover for ordinary players…

Bang!!!

The people at the tables in the left private room slammed their tables and stood up, brandishing swords and knives with fierce expressions, their eyes wide as bells:

“Damn it! You want me to move? Then see if you’ve got enough heads to cut off!”

“You brats think you can clear the room?! I’ll drain you of blood and use your bodies as decorations!”

Inside the inn, other martial artists watched indifferently as the men from the left private room and the Xifeng Tower’s men confronted each other.

The Hu people in the right private room seemed somewhat interested. The leader wiped his mouth with the help of a maid, savoring the wine as he glanced over.

“…”

Faced with the tense atmosphere in the inn, Shadow acted as if he hadn’t heard anything, his gaze lingering on the Hu people.

Wu Kuo didn’t look this way either. He simply said, “Act quickly,” to the man behind him. Immediately, a man holding a slender black sword stepped forward.

The man who stepped out of the Xifeng Tower’s group had a cold expression, walked with his head held high, dragging his black cloak, toward the rude martial artists.

Swish!

Just one sword strike…

A simple, effortless strike left three corpses lying in the inn, scattering the tables behind them in chaos.

The moment this man acted, the four people with Yin Fox’s group had their pupils constrict simultaneously.

A group of martial artists at the Unaccomplished Realm couldn’t withstand the swords of the Xifeng Tower’s masters even for two breaths… They didn’t even have time to say anything before fleeing in panic, leaving behind a dozen corpses.

The man with the cloak seemed to have done something trivial; he sheathed his sword, turned around, and returned to the crowd at Xifeng Tower.
The Longmen Inn was silent until waiter Xiao Wu brought people to carry down the bodies of over a dozen people, after which many gradually regained their senses.
“What a fast sword…”
Silver Fox, like the other players in the inn, stared intently at the man’s figure, looking grave. “Fast and powerful—probably some kind of ultimate technique.”
The side hall on the left was empty, giving the people from Xifeng Tower a place to settle down…
The side hall on the left was packed, and the remaining people occupied both tables in the main hall as well.
At that moment, someone in the main hall couldn’t sit still anymore:
“I am Niu Dali, the leader of the ‘Zhan Yi Sect’. I’ve long heard of the Shadow Queen’s fame and would like to toast to the master of this tower.”
A burly and capable player stood up, raising his cup toward Meiying, the master of Xifeng Tower, in an invitation.
Meiying turned and raised her cup in return:
“So you’re an expert in internal energy who has mastered the ‘Eighteen Falls Technique’, and the wrestling king of the Western Regions. I’ve long heard of your reputation.”
“A mere small reputation—please don’t laugh at me, Shadow Queen… I’ll drink first as a toast.” Niu Dali drank it all in one gulp with his bold personality.
“To you!”
Meiying also drank without hesitation.
“Haha…”
“What a pleasure!”
Although Niu Dali appeared carefree on the surface, his words revealed a more delicate side: “I didn’t expect the master of Xifeng Tower to arrive so quickly. Truly swift! I thought it would take at least until tomorrow for the experts from the Central Plains to get here after receiving the system announcement.”
“Heh, it’s quite coincidental. I happened to have a mission near the Divine Dragon Ridge yesterday, so I came by by chance. I never expected to encounter such a great opportunity.”
“I see. It seems the master of Xifeng Tower has a deep connection with the Desert Palace. I wish you success here and hope you can claim the treasures of the Desert Palace.” As soon as Niu Dali said this, the gazes of the other players in the inn turned even colder, and their looks at the group from Xifeng Tower became even more hostile.
Meiying saw this but remained silent. However, she became slightly more wary of Niu Dali, gave a faint nod in thanks, and turned toward a corner of the inn:
“The Desert Palace belongs to those of virtue. Although Meiying thinks so, it still depends on luck. Brother Silver Fox, I wonder if your sect leader has also come to the desert?”
Whoosh!!
When the players in the inn heard Meiying turn toward an inconspicuous corner of the inn, countless gazes immediately focused on the low-key Silver Fox and his three companions.
“Hiss…”
“They’re from Jinxiu Heshan.”
“I didn’t expect people from Jinxiu Heshan to be here too.”
In the inn, many players showed expressions of shock and hesitation.
Jinxiu Heshan was different from Xifeng Tower.

Although Jinxiu Heshan was established not long ago, it boasts two top masters from the Central Plains. Kai Xin has recently become increasingly famous, even showing signs of surpassing the Evil Emperor. One Emperor has also dealt a heavy blow to the Wild Wolf Organization abroad. With rumors of a competition for the top position within Jinxiu Heshan between Song Que, the inheritor of Tian Dao, and another master, there are reports that the number of its members has increased by three hundred thousand in just a few days. Now, Jinxiu Heshan surpasses Xi Feng Lou both in terms of lineup and momentum, even showing signs of exceeding the peak version of Yi Pin Tang! If Jinxiu Heshan decides to get involved, or even if Kai Xin personally takes part in this mission, their chances of achieving anything will be greatly reduced… For a moment, countless people looked at Silver Fox with complex and wary expressions. Although Silver Fox was somewhat displeased to have his identity revealed by Shadow, since Shadow was the leader of Xi Feng Lou and the second most powerful figure in the Central Plains, he had no choice but to stand up: “I didn’t expect Lord Shadow to still remember us insignificant people. What luck for Silver Fox…” Though he said this, his demeanor remained neither arrogant nor humble, showing no signs of submission. “Brother Silver Fox is being modest,” Shadow said seriously. “How could someone who has caught Kai Xin’s attention be an insignificant person? I actually admire Brother Silver Fox’s talents…” “Lord Shadow, you’re joking,” Silver Fox interrupted. “We’ve only joined the sect for a few days. How could ordinary disciples like us possibly know where the sect leader is? If Lord Shadow wants to know where our leader is, he can simply ask Master Bai Xiao Sheng.” After exchanging a few words, he slowly sat down. Although Shadow didn’t obtain any information from Silver Fox, his arrival still alerted him! He suddenly realized that Kai Xin had disappeared from the martial world for several days, coinciding precisely with the start of the mission at Longmen Inn. “Could it be such a coincidence?” Shadow frowned slightly after sitting down. But before he could think further, the door of the inn suddenly flew open, and a gust of wind along with a wild, husky female voice rushed in: “So many people from the Central Plains! Osaaya loves men from the Central Plains the most…” Hearing this wild, hoarse, and magnetic voice, the Hu people in the side room were also startled, frowning and muttering something incomprehensibly; even the red-robed lamas and Hu girls behind them all looked up at the ceiling… Swish! Swish! Inside the inn, countless gazes focused on the ceiling.

The slender roof beams couldn’t conceal the stranger’s bare, sun-tanned skin at all. Her slim waist showed not a trace of excess fat, and her delicate, boneless figure was lightly covered by a layer of alluring black veil, which only emphasized her graceful curves that sparked endless imagination.
Below her waist, around the black veil, hung a circle of shiny black ornaments, adding a playful and cute touch. A cute crystal was also attached to her navel, giving her an appearance that combined wild beauty with a hint of purity.
Her entire being exuded the grace and wildness of a woman from the Western Regions, her presence so captivating it made one’s blood boil…
When she looked down, those who met her gaze felt as if consumed by desire. Her gaze, free from any pretense of restraint, was enough to ignite passion in anyone—seeming to draw out their souls!
Even the silver fox couldn’t help but feel a stir in its heart, a strong urge surging within.
The many men in the inn were even more distressed; many couldn’t help but inhale sharply and rise, eager to draw this stunning woman into their arms.
“Stay alert.”
The woman, with slightly better composure, immediately sensed something was wrong and used her hidden strength to send a message to her brothers from the Xifeng Tower…
But the outcome shocked her greatly!
“Tower master…”
It seemed these men hadn’t been affected at all. After averting their gazes, they continued to stare at the alluring woman on the roof beams. “This isn’t some charm spell.”
“This woman is too tempting…”
“I’ve never seen someone this captivating before—perfection of wildness and grace. Wow, she’s so feminine.”
“…”
The woman’s expression changed abruptly. She realized that although everyone was attracted to the mysterious woman from the Western Regions, each of them still retained some clarity of mind and hadn’t done anything inappropriate.
“It seems those barbarians are fine.”
She turned to look, scanning the faces of the people in the hall, including the silver fox, before focusing on a group of people in the adjacent room.
The barbarians across seemed to know who she was. None of them looked at the mysterious woman from the Western Regions. Only the leading merchant suddenly stood up and muttered something to her.

“It turns out to be you. I was wondering just now who could be so silly as to bring so many trivial things to the desert and show off there.” The mysterious woman from the Western Regions on the beam glanced around with a charming expression. “You ask why I don’t like you? I remember being very clear—I hate smelly men like you who don’t bathe in a whole year.” With that, she suddenly turned and fell down, her perfect figure descending gracefully beneath the black veil, landing on an empty stool in the center of the hall. Her sexy, bewitching eyes fixed intently on the only man in the inn who remained alert and nearby, as her tempting red lips exhaled a mesmerizing scent. “‘Ignoring what goes on outside’—is that what you, a man from the Central Plains, mean?” Her slightly hoarse, magnetic voice reached their ears, and everyone’s gaze immediately focused on the man and woman in the center of the hall.
