Chapter 173: Reaching Xiantian Is As Hard As Ascending The Heavens!

Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu

A huge group of Evolved Jing experts led their disciples as they rushed madly into the canyon. Everyone was vying to be one step ahead in finding Lu Bo’s disciples.

Back at the camp, Lu Bo and Wen Guang crawled up slowly from the ground with ugly expressions on their faces. The two of them could be counted as being officially booted from the race now.

It was unknown which black-hearted bastard had been so bloody savage in his attacks when they were in the middle of the brawl. The injuries they suffered would require at least two, three days to recover!

Of course, within the span of this two, three days, the Reishi King would most likely have fallen into the hands of others already!

‘Ah, Zhu’er… you’ll have to look out for yourself this time. I hope that you’ll be able to judge the situation properly and surrender the Reishi Kingwhen they find you.’

Lu Bo thought gloomily. Only now did he realize that this eldest disciple of his was the most obedient of all his disciples. Although he was very quiet normally, he would always complete all the tasks he was given with diligence.

As he compared that boy with his youngest disciple who had been hiding in the corner throughout the fight just now, he felt extremely disappointed.

“Master! Are you alright? Those bunch of scumbags! After you break through to Xiantian realm, we must look for them to settle the score again!”

Li Zi scampered over with a face full of concern once he confirmed that the crowd had all left. He did not forget to voice his indignance about the matter as he moved to help his master up.

Normally, Lu Bo would have been very happy to hear these words. However, the scenario this time was truly rather awkward.

Wen Guang exchanged a glance with Lu Bo as if to say, ‘Are you going to do it? Or should I?’

Lu Bo shook his head lightly and caressed Li Zhi’s head gently.

‘Heh, so what if your performance is outstanding? The one master dotes on the most is still me!’ Li Zhi thought smugly. He had already grown annoyed with Ma Dao Zhu and the way he was strutting around before him a long time ago.

“Kacha!”

Lu Bo dipped his bloody hands into the river and allowed the bone chilling-water to wash over his palms.

The only thing left in the river was the corpse of Li Zhi who was floating down the river with injustice and disbelief written all over his face. It was like he still could not understand why his master would kill him, even in death!

“Senior Brother Lu, it’s been so many years, but your judgment of people is still as poor as before!”

Wen Guang glanced disdainfully at the corpse floating by as he said.

“Hmph!”

Lu Bo could not retort at all. If not for the idiot Li Zhi, how could such a situation possibly occur?

After single-handedly cutting off the path to Xiantian for his master, he completely deserved to die!

For those peak Evolved Jing experts, breaking through to Xiantian realm was the only thing they cared about!

For the sake of reaching Xiantian realm, some people would not be softhearted even if it was their own son blocking their path!

At most, they could always produce another son after breaking through to become a Xiantian existence! A mere disciple was naturally not worth anything at all in light of this.

Xiantian might be an amazing realm, but reaching it was a difficulty upon more difficulties! A popular saying among Evolved Jing masters encapsulated this perfectly—reaching Xiantian is as hard as ascending to the heavens!

How many dazzling geniuses who had initially awed the martial world had ended up stuck at the border before Xiantian realm? No matter how talented or domineering they were, these geniuses also ended up being buried beneath the earth a hundred years later, the moment they expended their lifespan!

This time, because of Li Zhi, his chances of breaking through to Xiantian had been completely dashed. If he didn’t kill the idiotic twerp, he would not be able to vent his immense frustration!

At this time, Wang Yuyan’s group was also rushing into the canyon with great speed. The two sisters were only here to expand their horizons under the guard of the strong experts of their clan. Of their group of seven, apart from the two sisters, the other five were all powerful Evolved Jing experts!

Among the five, two of them were even peak Evolved Jing masters! Such a lineup could only serve as guards for the Wang sisters; one could easily deduce what kind of status the girls had in the clan!

“Eh? Big sister, there’s a person over there!”

Wang Yuyan was very keen and lively by nature, so she would always fidget about and look around curiously. She wasn’t that bored to listen to those old fogies’ conversation.

“Little Sister, this person is already dead; it’s more important to continue quickly!”

Wang Yudie took a brief glance at the person lying on the river bank and concluded. The person’s skin was completely pale, as if there was no blood flowing within him.

“Let me take a look!”

Wang Yuyan continued staring at the pale man with some unwillingness. She stepped out lightly and like a gentle fairy from a painting, hurried towards the river bank.

“Ai, Little Sister, you’re still too softhearted! Uncle Qian, I’ll have to trouble you again.”

Wang Yudie scolded lightly as she turned to a middle-aged man beside her.

“Don’t worry, Eldest Young Miss.”

Qian Tang took a step forward. Although he’d set off later, he arrived beside the body on the river bed before Wang Yuyan and started to examine it.

“Uncle Qian, how’s the condition of this person?”

Wang Yuyan peered curiously over the middle-aged man’s shoulders and asked.

“Second Young Miss, this person probably fell into the river by accident. He’s only left with a single breath.”

Qian Tang placed a finger under the man’s nose and followed up by checking his pulse before answering.

“This person is just a normal human, so he does not pose any threat to the young miss. He’s also really hanging on by a mere breath right now. But what’s with all the wounds on his body?”

Qian Tang’s job was to protect the two misses properly, so his priority lay in ensuring that this person could not pose a threat to them.

After checking his pulse, Qian Tang was able to set his mind at ease. From what he could see, this person’s blood and Qi was only a little stronger than a regular person. It was not worth a mention at all.

“In that case, Uncle Qian, is there any way to save this person?”

Wang Yuyan looked at Qian Tang with a gaze full of expectations.

“There is, but… we need to hurry off right now to vie for the Reishi King!”

Qian Tang’s heart melted as he looked at Wang Yuyan’s innocent and expectant eyes. Still, as soon as the first part of his sentence rolled off his tongue, he regretted it immediately. In that moment, he could only try to steer away from the topic in a mild and roundabout manner.

They needed to hurry up and resume their journey, and could not afford to carry this burdensome fellow along. Furthermore, this person was not pushed into the river by them, so how was it any of their business whether he lived or died?

“We’re going to the higher parts of the canyon anyway; let’s just bring him up since it’s along the way. In any case, to rescue one person from death is better than to build a seven-storied pagoda!”

Wang Yuyan had not even opened her mouth when Wang Yudie’s angelic voice floated over. She knew the temperament of this little sister of hers the most. As long as this little girl decided on something, it could not be reversed even if there were several strong bulls to pull her back! If she didn’t agree to bring this person with them, the little girl might truly stay here and throw a tantrum until the person actually died before they would be allowed to move!

“Understood!”

Since the eldest young miss had spoken, Qian Tang did not say anything else. He took out a small bottle and poured out a snow-white pill which he stuffed into the person’s mouth.

After that, they carried him with them and continued rushing forward.

That person was naturally Bei Feng. His luck was pretty good to survive the fall from the cliff. Fortunately, he had stuffed the Green Lingzhi into his mouth before jumping off. The energy from it had somehow managed to keep him alive and preserve his last breath! Otherwise, he’d have frozen to death in the bone-chilling river long ago!

As for the rest of the energy, most of it had remained in his limbs and bones, and would be absorbed slowly.

The group’s traveling speed was extremely fast. Although the two girls looked frail and gentle, the both of them were actually peak Dark Jing experts! In addition, they had mastered special lightweight techniques, so their speed was also not much slower than Evolved Jing masters!

After two days, Bei Feng’s condition had improved a great deal. At the very least, his face was not as pale as a ghost’s. There were tinges of pink on his cheeks, and he seemed more like a person who was asleep.

Except for taking the trouble to feed him a single snow-white pill every day, Qian Tang completely ignored Bei Feng. An esteemed peak Evolved Jing master had actually been reduced to a beast of burden for this regular human… he felt annoyed every time he looked at Bei Feng!

Early the next day, the main group of Evolved Jing masters had already caught up to and surrounded Ma Dao Zhu’s group.

“Hand over the Reishi King! That is not something that people of your level can possess!”

Since none of the Evolved Jing masters had struck the first blow, the first person to make a move would become the prime target of everyone else. Thus, they could only stand around while an old man stood out and demanded.

“Respected Seniors, the Reishi King is really not with us! That day, we chased that person all the way to the cliff but he turned around and killed my junior brother. I originally intended to catch him but unexpectedly, he actually jumped off the cliff directly into the river!”

Ma Dao Zhu said with a bitter smile. That karmic retribution actually came really swiftly! Wasn’t it just few days ago when he was strutting about arrogantly as he surrounded a weaker person? Who would have thought that the exact same thing would happen to him so quickly…
