Chapter 3093
3093 Taking A Bath
“Yes, you may.” Mu Ling said, smiling. “We are all Blue Star disciples, and we should look out for one another. Come with us now that you’re alone!”
The disciple smiled happily and looked excited after hearing his reply. “I recognise you. You are Venerable Si Que and Venerable Mu Xin’s disciples. I am Zheng Hai, a disciple of Venerable Yi Zhen.”
“Mu Jiu, do you want to add anything to the soup? I don’t have any soup ingredients.” Lin Chengjin boiled the sliced snake meat in a pot while looking at Feng Jiu.
“It is right here with me. I’ll go there and put it in.” Feng Jiu came over to help with the cooking.

The sky was getting darker and the air temperature was rapidly dropping in the dense forest at night. While chatting, everyone sat around the fire, eating barbecue and drinking snake soup. They felt that the atmosphere was special in some way.
However, when they saw Shao Kaizhi, who was still in a coma, they became concerned and asked, “Mu Jiu, when will Kaizhi wake up? Is it still suitable for him to gain experience here in his current state?”
Feng Jiu, who was eating barbecue, swallowed the meat and replied, “He’ll wake up tomorrow. Don’t worry. He’s fine now that his poison has been detoxified.”
After getting her repeated assurances, everyone nodded. It’s great that everything turned out fine. If something bad happened and he was unable to participate, it would be too cruel.
They had been preparing for this experience for so long. Indeed this experience outing happened once a year, but not everyone would be chosen because there were only one hundred spots available.
After Feng Jiu finished eating, she stood. “I will wash my face and change into new clothes. I will return shortly.” With that, she headed to a nearby water source.
Guo Ziqi stood up and followed her. “Wait for me, I’m going, too.”
Feng Jiu was surprised when she heard this. She looked back to look at him and replied with an odd expression on her face. “Go ahead, come!” She waited for him, and then the two of them continued on to the water source.
The water source in the dense forest was concealed by weeds; when the two of them removed the weeds, they discovered the water source, which flowed from top to bottom. Even though the water source was small, the water was clear and there were stones along the side. Several leaves float on the surface of the water, carried by the current.
Feng Jiu bent over to wash her face and then straightened up. When she noticed that Guo Ziqi was about to undress, she yelled, “Wait a minute!”
“What’s wrong?” Gu Ziqi asked her.
“Are you taking a bath here?”
“Yes!” Guo Ziqi nodded. After looking at the stream, he said, “This stream is not small, it’s perfectly fine to take a bath here.”
“Why don’t you take a bath first? I’ll sit here and wait until you’re done.” She said.
Guo Ziqi was perplexed as he looked at her. “Let’s all take a bath! We’re all men. What are you afraid of?”
Feng Jiu’s mouth twitched and she smiled. “I’m not used to it,”
Guo Ziqi saw that she had no intention of taking off her clothes. After some thought, he said, “Then let’s do this! You take a bath first, and I’ll keep watch to make sure no small beasts come over.”
“Alright.” Feng Jiu did not object and immediately agreed. After telling him to walk ten metres away, she then set up a formation array around her, undressed, and took a quick bath to wash away the stench of blood and exhaustion from her body.
When he couldn’t hear the sound or see Mu Jiu in the stream. Guo Ziqi was perplexed. He took a few steps back, poked his head out to look, and called out, “Mu Jiu?”
