”Since the Nine Heavens Pagoda are for collecting demonic beasts, Xiao You is not a demonic beast so he naturally cannot enter. However, I have the demonic beast's blood, so I can just sprinkle it onto the egg.” Nangong Chu said.
”Will it affect Xiao You?” Shui Qinan had also heard of demon beast blood before, but the blood of demon beasts was ruthless, how could Xiao You withstand it? As if she knew what Shui Qinan was thinking, Nangong Chu said, ”Don't underestimate Xiao You. After all, Xiao You is a combination of you and Yin Huaqing, so he's not that weak.”
”Alright.” Shui Qinan said indifferently.
Nangong Chu heaved a sigh of relief, just now he was really worried that Shui Qinan would not agree to his plan. Very quickly, Nangong Chu took out the beast's blood and applied it to Xiao You's egg. Shui Qinan looked at Xiao You nervously, afraid that Xiao You would not be able to endure it, but luckily, Xiao You didn't have any reactions.
Shui Qinan kept Xiao You inside the Nine Heavens Pagoda, and this time, she did it without a hitch.
Shui Qinan bid farewell to Nangong Jin and hurried back to Blizzard City. This time, Shui Qinan saw that the seal on Tuoba's Mercenary Guild had been removed, but it was not open for business. Shui Qinan's eyelids twitched as she glanced at Zhu Er, and suddenly, Zhu Er reached out her hand and thought that she was looking at a passerby: ”This little brother, may I ask, why is there no one here?”
”This Mercenary Guild, tell me the truth. No one has come to this Mercenary Guild since a few days ago, and I don't think they'll be able to open the door and close it.” Tuoba Mercenary Guild had always been the most dilapidated of all Mercenary Guild, and very few people would ever ask for someone from Tuoba Mercenary Guild to issue a mission.
”Thank you, little brother.” Zhu Er said with a smile. With Zhu Er's cute, baby-like face, normally, no one would be ruthless enough to ignore her cute act.
Zhu Er returned back to Shui Qinan's side and told Shui Qinan what the passerby said. Shui Qinan frowned and said: ”Oh, so it's like that, then let's go find them at their place.”
Shui Qinan and Zhu Er arrived at the somewhat dilapidated courtyard where Tuoba's Mercenary Guild was.
”Master …” Zhu Er opened her mouth wanting to say something, but Shui Qinan waved her hand to stop him from speaking. The thick stench of blood in the air came from the people in the house, and just as Shui Qinan was about to walk in, she heard all of your conversation.
”How is it, how is the captain?”
”It looks like the captain won't be able to stop the bleeding for some reason. If this goes on, the captain will die from excessive blood loss.”
”Weren't you stopping the bleeding earlier? How could it be …?” How could it not work again!? Is the Guild Leader dying? ”
”Shut the f * ck up. Do you know how to speak? How could our captain die?”
Shui Qinan who was at the door guessed that Huo Hua was severely injured, so the smell of blood was probably not only from Huo Hua's injuries. As expected, she heard the voice of the old man again, ”How are the nine brothers?”
”Coma …” ”I won't wake up.” A choked voice came out, it caused everyone in the room to feel pain, and for a moment, no one spoke. Shui Qinan was about to open the door and take a look, but seeing how injured Huo Hua was, Zhu Er suddenly pulled Shui Qinan and whispered: ”Wait Master, you go take a look before going in.”
