Chapter 116
“Alright, hurry up and put away this Illusory Snow Lotus. If it weren’t for this lotus, we wouldn’t have to face off with this woman.” The black-clothed man in the lead looked helpless.
“Hmph! What the hell?! Relying on her identity of the Marquis family, she wanted us to give in.” The man with raised eyebrows was dissatisfied.
“The people of the Marquis’ household always talk about propriety and righteousness, but in fact they are the most shameless ones.”
“Holding such a competition! I don’t even know how many people will die.”
“Well, what are you talking about? Let’s pick the lotus, whether we will be able to advance to the seventh level of Qi Practice depends on this lotus. ” The leading man said impatiently.
“Brother, I’ll go pick it.” The man with raised eyebrows eagerly said.
The black-clothed man in the lead nodded. As the man with raised eyebrows eagerly went into the water and was about to get close to the lotus, an overwhelming pressure came over, “Big Brother, save…” Before the man could finish his words, he was swallowed in a single gulp.
The sudden accident startled the two people on the shore, and Xiao Jingting’s heart was also pounding even though he was watching the situation from the tree.
“Mysterious Ink Snake!”
Xiao Jingting was secretly glad that he hadn’t made a move against the Illusory Snow Lotus because he was worried about the three brothers suddenly returning. If he had made a move earlier, he would be the one in the snake’s stomach now.
Previously, Ouyang Mingyue and the three brothers had fought fiercely but the snake didn’t even move, but now all of a sudden, it emerged.
Xiao Jingting’s heart pounded with fear. His head spinning as he noticed that the cultivation of Mysterious Ink Snake was around the ninth level of Qi Practice. The Illusory Snow Lotus was probably prepared by the Mysterious Ink Snake to build its foundation.
The Mysterious Ink Snake looked angrily at the other two men and rushed towards them.
The two men fled in a hurry and the Snake chased after them in fury.
Xiao Jingting quickly leapt down from the tree and rushed towards the Illusory Snow Lotus. Caution was necessary, but if you wanted to go far on the cultivating path, the spirit of adventure was also needed. You couldn’t lose the opportunity, so when the Snake came back there would be nothing left for him.
“You bastard, stop.”
Xiao Jingting just got the lotus when a clear rebuke came.
Xiao Jingting’s heart instantly jumped in fear. Ouyang Mingyue unexpectedly returned. This girl might have been waiting and watching.
Aware of Ouyang Mingyue’s presence, Xiao Jingting turned around and ran without saying a word.
Although Ouyang Mingyue was injured, this woman was armed with a magic weapon that could not be underestimated. Moreover, this woman returned so he was afraid she had a way.
Seeing Xiao Jingting running away, Ouyang Mingyue immediately chased after him.
Xiao Jingting leaped into the forest and raced hard, using three running amulets in succession. With great difficulty, he was able to get away from Ouyang Mingyue.
Xiao Jingting threw the Illusory Snow Lotus into the Spiritual Spring and the prompting tone in his head finally fell silent.
Xiao Jingting quickly changed his clothes. Thinking of Ouyang Mingyue, Xiao Jingting couldn’t help but be glad that he had used some disguise skill to change his appearance a bit when he picked the lotus in case of emergency.
After this, Xiao Jingting once again embarked on a journey of searching for spirit grasses. Xiao Jingting concealed his cultivation to the fifth level of Qi Practice, making few cultivators approach him, so Xiao Jingting snatched a few people’s identity cards in passing.
…………
Eight days after entering the forest, Xiao Jingting and Xiao Jinfeng unexpectedly reunited.
“Third brother, I finally found you.” Seeing Xiao Jingting, Xiao Jinfeng finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Xiao Jingting was also somewhat happy to see Xiao Jinfeng. “Second brother, you were worried about me!”
Xiao Jinfeng nodded and said, “Yes! In order to exchange pills, everyone has gone crazy. In the past few days, there have been constant fights and countless people have died. I was very worried about you.”
Xiao Jingting patted his chest and said, “Brother, don’t underestimate me so much. Actually, I’m also considered an expert.”
Xiao Jinfeng smiled helplessly and said, “You? Expert? Stop daydreaming. You know what? Ouyang Mingyue, the young lady of Marquis’ house, was almost killed by three demonic cultivators. Miss Ouyang’s cultivation is at the seventh level of Qi Practice! Still, she was almost killed. I heard that the three demonic cultivators didn’t end up well. Two were eaten by a demon snake and one escaped.”
“There’s Mysterious Ink Snake in the forest that kills people wherever it goes, making everyone in the forest in danger now!”
Xiao Jingting, “…”
“Miss Ouyang, how is she now?” Xiao Jingting asked probingly.
Xiao Jinfeng glanced at Xiao Jingting and said, “Why are you asking about this?”
Xiao Jingting laughed awkwardly and said, “I’m just asking, just curious.”
“These big family ladies carry countless life-preserving things. Although she met with an accident before, she should be alive and kicking again now.” Xiao Jinfeng said. “By the way, I heard that someone snatched the Illusory Snow Lotus from Miss Ouyang’s hands. This guy is really brave.”
Xiao Jingting, “… ” This brave guy is standing right in front of you right now. Second brother, you really have no idea who I really am.
“That guy, I’m afraid he is going to be in danger,” Xiao Jinfeng said.
Xiao Jingting was puzzled, “Danger?”
Xiao Jinfeng nodded and said, “Yes! When you go out, the Marquis will definitely inspect everyone’s space rings. At that time, the person who carries the Illusory Snow Lotus will definitely be hated by Miss Ouyang.”
Xiao Jingting, “…. ” He had a jade pendant space, so he should be able to escape the inspection. His jade pendant, in other people’s eyes, was just an ordinary spiritual jade.
“Second brother, have you met big brother?” Xiao Jingting asked.
Xiao Jinfeng shook his head, saying, “No, I heard that he and a few people from their academy formed a group and went to do the task, so I don’t think there will be anything wrong.”
“That’s good.” Xiao Jingting said. With Xiao Qingyan’s death, the original body owner’s parents would definitely make a scene.
“How many identity cards did you get?” Xiao Jinfeng asked.
Xiao Jingting took out a few scattered identity cards and shook them. Xiao Jinfeng frowned and divided more than a dozen to Xiao Jingting. “These are for you.”
Xiao Jingting took it without hesitation. Anyway he was still cultivator at sixth level of Qi Practice. When settling accounts, if his points were too low, it would not look good.
