Qingfeng Li took a look at the Clear-Wood Saintess and praised silently, “What a great bottle.”
He had noticed that this bottle was a Dharma Treasure at the middle-grade saint level and could trap anything inside. This incredible treasure also symbolized the Clear-Wood Saintess’ powerful background.
The Clear-Wood Saintess rolled her bright eyes and stepped petite paces carefully toward the Thunder Tree.
She understood that she couldn’t defeat the Black Venom Thunder Snake with her power, and the only way to trap it was to draw it inside the bottle.
Sensing the Clear-Wood Saintess approaching, the Black Venom Thunder Snake suddenly opened its eyes. With a streak of saint level laws shining on its body, it directly entered the void, and showed up next to the Clear-Wood Saintess the following moment, biting towards her neck.
The Clear-Wood Saintess was deeply shocked with a pale look on her face.
She intended to trap the Black Venom Thunder Snake with the bottle but didn’t expect the snake to be proficient in void techniques and this fast. It was too late for her to activate the spell of the bottle at this moment.
Qingfeng Li saw this scene on the side and was also a little shocked. He knew he couldn’t let the snake bite the Clear-Wood Saintess’ neck, in which case she would definitely die.
Qingfeng Li had good feelings towards the Clear-Wood Saintess. After all, she fed him some saint level elixirs and had saved his life.
Although he was playing dead that time, saving him showed the Clear-Wood Saintess’ kindness.
There were not many kind self-cultivators left in the world like her. Qingfeng Li cherished the opportunity of meeting one and would certainly help her.
He sent out his spirit energy and showed up in the void. His spirit energy instantly appeared on the snake and trapped its soul.
The Black Venom Thunder Snake was trapped in the void the next moment and couldn’t move a bit.
The Clear-Wood Saintess took the chance and hurriedly wielded her treasure bottle, shooting out a white light, drawing the Black Venom Thunder Snake in, and then quickly corking the bottle.
Qingfeng Li operated his spirit energy in the void. Therefore, no one could notice him.
Qingfeng Li had intended to strike out stealthily, to hide his power from the Clear-Wood Saintess, and to be an unknown hero.
The Clear-Wood Saintess was relieved after catching the Black Venom Thunder Snake, wiping the cold sweat on the forehead with her delicate hands, with some lingering fear in her heart.
She felt very lucky yet a bit confused, mumbling to herself, “What just happened? Why couldn’t the Black Venom Thunder Snake move?”
Qingfeng Li was afraid of the Clear-Wood Saintess figuring out the reason, hurriedly saying, “Clear-Wood Saintess, pick the Thunder Fruit now. Don’t waste time anymore.”
The Clear-Wood Saintess nodded and quickly walked toward the Thunder Tree.
Without the guard of the Black Venom Thunder Snake, the Thunder Tree became much weaker. The Clear-Wood Saintess shattered the thunder away with her palm using only her saint level energy.
Then, she got beside Thunder Fruit and was about to pick it with her right hand.
At this very moment, an arrow was shot from far, piercing through the air swiftly and flying right toward the Clear-Wood Saintess’s hand.
The Clear-Wood Saintess was shocked. She paid no more attention to the Thunder Fruit and immediately took a step back, dodging the arrow.
The green arrow missed the Clear-Wood Saintess’s hand and landed heavily onto the ground, creating a giant pit, which showed its powerful force.
The Clear-Wood Saintess turned livid with anger. She turned around and asked, “Who attacked me?”
“Haha, dear junior sister. Forgot your senior sister this quickly?” Silvery laughter came from the distance, followed by some young women.
These women were all pretty and charming, no less than the Clear-Wood Saintess, especially the one in the lead. She was wearing green, with a delicate face and snow-white skin, holding a green bow which indicated that she was the one who shot the arrow.
The Clear-Wood Saintess turned serious when she saw the women in green. “Green-Bamboo Saintess, you also come to the Fallen Immortal Arena?”
The Green-Bamboo Saintess smiled slightly and replied, “Junior sister, you can come here; why can’t I? As for the Thunder Fruit, I’ll take it, and you can leave now.”
The Clear-Wood Saintess got irritated and she said, “Green-Bamboo Saintess, don’t push your luck too far. I found the Thunder Fruit first, and I was the one who caught the Black Venom Thunder Snake. The fruit belongs to me.”
The Green-Bamboo Saintess sneered and replied with disdain,” Dear Junior Sister, do you really think you can be my opponent? You better leave before I get angry.”
Seeing Clear-Wood Saintess was still staying there, the Green-Bamboo Saintess showed a cold look.
She suddenly drew out a green arrow and shot it toward Clear-Wood Saintess with the bow.
This time she spared no strength. The arrow flew extremely fast and arrived in front of the Clear-Wood Saintess immediately.
The Clear-Wood Saintess used her saint-level vital essence, generating green saint level talisman scripts, and then suddenly waving her hands, forming a defensive light veil to block the arrow.
But the green arrow penetrated through the light veil the next moment.
The Clear-Wood Saintess was deeply shocked. She hurriedly dodged to the left side. The green arrow flew by her, leaving a bloody mark on her face and making her look quite embarrassing.
The Clear-Wood Saintess was a little stunned. She stepped back and said with surprise, “Green-Bamboo Saintess, you have reached the middle-grade of the Saint Realm?”
The Green-Bamboo Saintess laughed with pride, “You’re right. I’m a Saint in the middle-grade now. Our Green Tree Sect is much more powerful than your Wood Saint Sect. You may know this too, that your sect is meant to merge with ours and become a branch.”
The Clear-Wood Saintess revealed a complicated expression, becoming very embarrassed.
Their sects had a long history. They were once one sect called the ‘Wood Tree Saint Sect’.
Then, the master of the Wood Tree Saint Sect died, and two disciple sisters kept fighting for the master position. Eventually, they split apart and created the Wood Saint Sect and the Green Tree Sect separately. These two sects were enemies, and both wanted to take over the other.
Suddenly, the Green-Bamboo Saintess frowned a bit, for she saw a man standing beside the Clear-Wood Saintess. It was Qingfeng Li.
Green-Bamboo Saintess got a little confused. She knew her sect was once the same one with the Clear-Wood Saintess’s.
Although they had split into two sects, they both only took in female disciples, and both of the sects had rules about staying away from men. Why was a man standing beside the Clear-Wood Saintess?
