Chapter 281: Space Boat
"How powerful!"
Since the moment the purple-clothed man blocked their way, a crowd had gathered around them. In the bustling city, it was not uncommon for people to block and attack others like this.
Everyone could see that the purple-clothed man didn't have any Dou Qi wings, but was still able to stand in the air, showing his incredible strength.
They all wanted to see how Xiao Ming and his group would handle the situation, but they were surprised to see that Xiao Ming easily defeated the purple-clothed man in just a few moves.
Of course, no one thought that the purple-clothed man was weak. Even if he was weaker, he was still a Dou Ancestor powerhouse.
The fact that Xiao Ming could defeat him so easily only meant that he was incredibly powerful!
On the back of the gryphon, Xiao Ming scanned the surrounding area.
All onlookers who made eye contact with him shrank their necks and showed awkward smiles, quickly driving their flying magical beasts away, afraid of being targeted.
Xiao Ming didn't pay attention to their reactions. Instead, he looked back at the purple-clothed man he had thrown to the back of the gryphon.
"Xiao Ming, how should we deal with this person?" Xiao Yi Xian asked as she took a step forward, her beautiful eyes full of disgust as she looked at the purple-clothed man. If it weren't for Xiao Ming's intervention earlier, she would have let him taste the flavor of being poisoned to death.
"I think we should just bury him," said Zi Yan in a muffled voice.
Despite Zi Yan's cute appearance, she had never been merciful to those who angered her. When she was at the Jia Nan Academy, even the students who offended her were at least bedridden for ten days or half a month.
"It's a waste to bury him. Let Qing Lin handle it," said Xiao Ming.
Qing Lin was suddenly startled when her name was mentioned and didn't understand how she was supposed to handle it.
"There is no need to be nervous. This man in purple is a seventh-rank magical beast in human form. His real form is probably a Purple Soul Flame Serpent with a strength of around five-star Dou Ancestor. If he hadn't been careless just now, he wouldn't have been captured so quickly by me. Try using your Jade Snake Three Flower Pupils to subdue him. If you succeed, it will be very beneficial to you," Xiao Ming said with a smile.
Qing Lin breathed a sigh of relief. She hadn't realized that the man in purple was actually a snake in human form. When it came to using the Jade Snake Three Flower Pupils to subdue snakes, she would have more confidence.
Over the years, she had gained a deep understanding of the Jade Snake Three Flower Pupils.
Thinking of this, Qing Lin took a step forward and said, "Sister Xian'er, please help me wake him up, otherwise I can't use the Jade Snake Three Flower Pupils to subdue him."
Xiao Yi Xian nodded slightly and with a flick of her finger, a dark Dou Qi burst out from her fingertip and landed directly on the forehead of the purple-clad man.
"AHHH!" The man let out a gut-wrenching scream as if he was enduring unbearable agony. His eyes flew open and darted around frantically.
Qing Lin wasted no time and whispered, "Soul Control." The three emerald spots in her pupils whirled rapidly, shooting a vibrant green light directly at the man in purple.
For a moment, the man struggled against the force of the Jade Snake Three Flower Pupils, but his resistance soon waned, and his face became expressionless.
Successfully controlling the purple-clad man, Qing Lin breathed a sigh of relief. Sweat had appeared on her delicate face at some point.
After all, the purple-clad man was a Dou Ancestor, and it was not so easy for her to subdue him with her current strength.
Seeing Qing Lin's success, Xiao Ming was not surprised. He had known that this would be the result. He just felt a little emotional. No matter how one looked at it, the Jade Snake Three Flower Pupils was somewhat terrifying.
"Qing Lin, ask him why he attacked us and if he has any accomplices." Xiao Ming instructed.
Qing Lin did as she was told, and soon they found out why the man in purple attacked them.
Firstly, he sensed that the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python in Zi Yan's hand was extraordinary, and secondly, he was very lecherous and had robbed many people before, but had never been caught, making him a habitual offender.
Upon learning these reasons, Xiao Ming could only shake his head.
After confirming that the man had no accomplices, Xiao Ming had Qing Lin store him in the space inside her pupils and then urged the gryphon to fly towards Horizon City.
However, instead of flying directly into the city, Xiao Ming found a secluded forest outside the city and landed there, since most big cities prohibited flying.
"Thank you. You can return now." When the gryphon landed on the ground, Xiao Ming and the girls also climbed down, and looking at the prostrate gryphon, he smiled and said.
The gryphon seemed to understand what Xiao Ming had said and rubbed its big head against him a few times before flapping its huge wings and soaring into the sky, disappearing quickly from sight.
After watching the gryphon depart, Xiao Ming turned around, waved to the group, and then led the way towards Horizon City.
"Xiao Ming, should we head straight to where the wormhole is located?" Walking beside Xiao Ming, Xiao Yi Xian asked.
"Not yet, let's buy a space boat first so that we can arrive faster." Xiao Ming replied with a smile, slowing his pace slightly.
"Mm."
...
Walking slowly on the bustling streets, where the crowds were like ants, and various vendors and shops lined both sides of the street, calling out to attract customers and displaying their wares. The entire Horizon City was filled with a busy and crowded atmosphere.
Xiao Ming stopped a pedestrian and asked for directions to the nearest space boat vendor. After receiving the information, he thanked the person and turned to the girls.
"According to that person, the only vendor that sells space boats is the Luo family, who controls the space wormhole. Let's head there directly," he said.
Naturally, none of the girls would object to Xiao Ming's words, so they all nodded in agreement.
After half an hour of walking through half of Horizon City, they arrived at a massive black stone square, guarded by numerous guards. At the center of the square, on a tall stone platform, a powerful space force could be faintly felt.
With only a quick glance at the square, Xiao Ming and his companions headed straight to the right side of the square, where there was an extremely luxurious shop.
"Are you interested in buying a space boat?" A shop attendant greeted them as they entered the store.
Upon scanning the shop, they saw five wooden ships about the size of a palm on the shop counter. The wooden ships faintly shimmered with silver light and even contained a trace of faint space power.
Seeing Xiao Ming nod, the shop attendant was delighted. Space boats were expensive, and they couldn't sell many of them throughout the year.
Naturally, they would be well-received if someone came to buy one. However, Xiao Ming had no intention of wasting time on small talk, and immediately said, "Bring out your best space boat."
The shop attendant was taken aback by his straightforwardness. Was he really not going to ask about the price? He wasn't pulling his leg, was he?
"Sir, our space boats are not cheap." The shop attendant coughed and reminded him.
"It doesn't matter. I can afford it." Xiao Ming said. He couldn't even remember how much gold he had now.
