"What is that?!"
"Seems like... a person?"
"Such fast speed?!"
"There’s someone behind her!"
"Is she being chased?"
"It doesn’t look like it."
A few people on the road saw this scene and exclaimed in surprise.
Fang Yu slightly frowned.
After thinking a bit, his leisurely stroll suddenly turned wild.
With a push of his feet, the ground cracked slightly and he charged towards Liu Ningran.
"The guy behind is also so fast!"
"What are they doing? Not going to the Martial Arts Training Ground, but messing around on the road. Don’t know which team they are from, but if our captain sees this, he would definitely scold them all afternoon."
There are rules within the Third Hall, running around like this seems to be punishable.
But since Liu Ningran led this, Fang Yu didn’t care, at worst they would be punished together.
Running at full strength, the distance that Liu Ningran had pulled ahead was quickly closing.
The two of them whizzed through the road like a gust of wind.
"Hm?"
Liu Ningran glanced back and saw not only had Fang Yu not fallen behind, but he was also persistently catching up, almost overtaking her.
She felt a bit indignant and patted her legs.
The running legs, which were moving alternately, suddenly changed to a rabbit-like synchronous hopping.
With each hop covering several meters, and a light tap on the landing spot before hopping again - from a glance, it looked like a spry rabbit hopping, incredibly quick.
Surprise flashed across Fang Yu’s face, and he hesitated...
Bang!!
The Bone Powder burst from his legs.
Almost the moment the white Bone Powder exploded from his legs, his whole body whooshed forward, crossing paths with a group of people.
Neither side even saw each other’s faces clearly.
"So fast!?"
"Who are they?!"
"Can’t see their figures! But at least there are two people! What are they doing!"
"Openly defying the rules! Someone, go report to the Deputy Captain!"
The voices of several people were left behind in a blink of an eye, no longer audible.
Liu Ningran felt a wild gust from behind, and before her proud expression had faded, a face suddenly appeared beside her, moving in parallel, maintaining a bizarre state of relative stillness.
"You?!"
Surprise and astonishment flashed across Liu Ningran’s face.
He can be this fast?!
His legwork is almost catching up to mine!
Liu Ningran bit her lower lip secretly, her cute face showing stubbornness and defiance.
She glared at Fang Yu.
"Newcomer, don’t provoke me!"
"...Senior Sister Liu, I just don’t want to be left behind," Fang Yu helplessly spread his hands.
Pretending!!
Emotionally stirred, Liu Ningran’s trouser legs suddenly puffed out, ballooning into a shape as if stuffed with large lumps of cotton, resembling lantern pants.
While Fang Yu was still surprised, he saw Liu Ningran suddenly stop for no apparent reason.
The previously expanded trouser legs shrank back.
Fang Yu also stopped, dissolving the Bone Legs, dropping a pile of Bone Powder, and looked puzzlingly at Liu Ningran.
"Senior Sister Liu?"
"Hmph! We’ve arrived."
Fang Yu turned and saw a large house behind them, with a plaque reading [Peace Pavilion].
"Lucky you, follow me in."
Upon reaching the Peace Pavilion, she suddenly became orderly, walking in first.
Fang Yu followed behind.
Inside, Fang Yu found a spacious hall.
There weren’t many people inside, Fang Yu scanned quickly.
[Cheng He: 560/560.]
[Fei Zizhuo: 513/513.]
[Chu Mingbao: 732/732.]
[Long Zehui: 1000/1000.]
[Jing Lingxiu: 555/555.]
[...]
About a dozen scattered people, all somewhat capable.
The most conspicuous was the one with 1000 Qi, [Long Zehui], around whom people seemed quite respectful.
These individuals were gathered around a large board, apparently weighing something, not paying attention to the two who just entered.
Fang Yu took a closer look - that big board was covered with various small notes.
Each note contained quite a bit of text, seemingly detailed descriptions of various tasks.
"This task only has a three-day limit..."
"...have to go to the village below, don’t really want to go, heard it’s haunted."
"[Changhe Village] investigation case, the reward is the heart of a [Foam Demon], Lingxiu, I remember you mentioned your Cultivation Technique needs it... Ran Ran?!"
Although that person’s voice rose last, only then did the group turn their gaze collectively towards Fang Yu and Liu Ningran.
