Chapter 0139: Danger May Come at Anytime
“Senior Apprentice Brother Xiao Cheng will be here soon, if you kill Senior Apprentice Brother Shuo, then Senior Apprentice Brother Xiao Cheng will not let you off….” In Ruimu Danqin’s heart, Ning Xiao Cheng was the most powerful.
She personally saw Ning Xiao Cheng take the first place in the third round of the Tournament, if he wasn’t powerful then how could he accomplish this? Moreover, Deacon Liu also entrusted the three of them to Senior Apprentice Brother Xiao Cheng, showing that Senior Apprentice Brother Xiao Cheng really had the ability and strength.
Now that Cang Shuo and Meng Jing Xiu’s life was in peril, Ruimu Danqin no longer thought about anything else and spoke out her mind, regardless of if she would be ridiculed or not.
“Ha Ha….” That Senior Apprentice Brother Qu laughed, “I am Le Continent’s Red Heaven 7 Star Academy’s Qu Tong Fu, by my side is Red Heaven Academy’s Shang Mou Gao. You can wait here in the shade for the time being, remember that when your Senior Apprentice Brother Xiao Cheng comes, tell him to meet his Grandpa Qu. Kill your Senior Apprentice Brother Cang? No, no, this Grandpa will extinguish both of them together along with you.”
At a distance Chi Zi Wen, Meng Yu Jing, Situ Yu, Ling Naixin and even Yong Gu Yun were standing in the valley, but none of them came forward to speak even a single word. They knew that if they dared to speak out, then even they would be dragged into this mess.
Meng Jing Xiu desperately glanced at the few people from the Hua Continent, she knew that to rely on these bunch of people to succeed, was really not possible. Humans are simply fickle hearted, and these people really showed it.
At this time another cry sounded out in a distance, apparently another hill was broken open, and as such numerous cultivators were swarming in.
This person called Senior Apprentice Brother Qu no longer cared about killing Cang Shuo and the trio, as he also immediately followed that brown robbed cultivator called Shang Mou Gao as he rushed past them towards the commotion.
“If you dare to run, I, your father, will rub the Bone Burning Spirit on you….” Before leaving, that True Condensation 9th Level Cultivator surnamed Qu, did not forget to leave behind a few words. Meng Jing Xiu simply did not have the chance to take back the Storage Bag, not to mention trying to kill those three people.
There were so many cultivators here. So once someone broke open a hill, it would immediately cause the others to chase and grab the things. Even Meng Jing Xiu had killed three people since the time she came here. Waiting for a person to find a Spiritual Grass, and then later killing him to obtain his spoils were all too common here. With Meng Jing Xiu were only a few low level cultivators, as such they absolutely would not be able to snatch the good things, or even rob Spiritual Grasses from others.
“I am really sorry, Senior Apprentice Brother Cang, Senior Apprentice Sister Jing Xiu, I even implicated you all……” When Ruimu Danqin, who was innocent, saw such a battle scene, she was completely at a loss of words at this time.
Cang Shuo said with a sigh, “I do not blame you, it’s just that our experiences were simply too bad. You see those people from the Falling Star Academy, as well as the rest, were able to pick some Spiritual Grasses, moreover even people from the Intermediate Class and Advances Class Continents did not come to snatch from them. Since we really do not have a background, we should have stayed in the back. Plus, with Danqin obtaining an Essence Raising Fruit, it would be strange if it was not coveted.”
Meng Jing Xiu was silent, as her face was getting increasingly pale, as she was seriously injured. She also understood the meaning of Cang Shuo’s words, the three of them simply lacked experience. Usually in these kinds of situations, it would have been much better to quickly offer up the fruit to the person that demanded it. With this, at least they would be able to keep their lives. But because of her temper, she knew that she would never be able to submit to others, and as a result a fight would simply be inevitable. She would not only fight, but if fighting was not possible, then she would still try to at least scratch her opponent.
“If only Senior Apprentice Brother Xiao Cheng was here….” Ruimu Danqin knew that the fate of the three of them was already set in stone, so once those people finish snatching the Spiritual Grasses, the next moment they would immediately come to deal with the three of them.
Cang Shuo shook his head, “I would rather Senior Apprentice Brother Xiao Cheng not come here to fight him, you heard him say that he was from a 7 Star Academy. So they must also have an Essence Building Realm Master accompanying them, even if Senior Apprentice Brother was extremely formidable, he would not be a match for an Essence Building Master.”
The three people knew that there was nowhere to run, so even as they healed each other, they remained silent.
This kind of thing in this kind of place was simply too common, so no one even spoke up to even offer their sympathies or help to those three people.
“There are a few Healing Pills in here, quickly swallow them and leave this place. I cannot help you any more than this.” At this point, Situ Yu quickly came over, threw a bottle at Ruimu Danqin, and after saying those few words, immediately turned away.
Ruimu Danqin stupidly looked at the bottle in her hands, but reacted immediately, quickly opening up the bottle, she removed two Healing Pills and immediately put them in Cang Shuo’s and Meng Jing Xiu’s mouth.
“Do we really walk away from here?” Ruimu Danqin remembered Situ Yu’s words, and quickly asked.
“I did not expect that that Situ Yu would actually come up and offer us Healing Pills.” Cang Shuo looked at the departing figure of Situ Yu and spoke as he sighed, then he shook his head like Yue Ying and said, “There is no need to go, you can already see they have finished snatching up the Spiritual Grasses, I guess that that man surnamed Qu would be here soon. Moreover, with such serious injuries, where can we even go?”
..…
Ning Cheng and Yue Ying did not walk for too long, before on the third day, the two people once again met another cultivator. But this time the two people not only saw one or two cultivators, rather they saw more than tens of thousands of cultivators. When Ning Cheng was this large mass of people, he even suspected that almost all the cultivators left alive in the Angry Axe Valley were all concentrated here.
Ning Cheng casually glanced out with his Spiritual Consciousness, when he immediately saw several of his acquaintances. Chi Zi Wen, Meng Yu Jing, Situ Yu, Ling Naixin, Yong Gu Yun, but as for Fang Xin and Pu Li Xin, he could not find them.
Then Ning Cheng saw Cang Shuo and Ruimu Danqin and also Meng Jing Xiu, the trio, but at this moment Ning Cheng was furious, Cang Shuo and Meng Jing Xiu were seriously injured, only Ruimu Danqin seemed to be ok, albeit with red eyes, as she took care of the two. At this moment Meng Jing Xiu was covered in blood, and her face was very pale, as one of her arms were about to fall off, and was only held on by a small amount of flesh, if it was not treated immediately, then her arm was as good as scrap.
Cang Shuo was also looking listless and dilapidated, and was also similarly covered in blood, moreover there were several bloody holes on his chest. But the remaining few people from the Hua Continent’s Academies were safe, even that Yong Gu Yun, the only Qi Gathering Cultivator among them, was also still safe and sound. However, Yong Gu Yun did not follow together with Chi Zi Wen and Meng Yu Jing, but rather she followed another group of people.
Ning Cheng was in no mood to take notice of them, as he immediately came in front of Cang Shuo, and the trio, and barked, “What the hell happened?”
“Senior Apprentice Brother Xiao Cheng….” Ruimu Danqin seeing Ning Cheng come over, called out in a whiny crying like voice.
At this time Cang Shuo and Meng Jing Xiu also saw Ning Cheng, but their eyes were filled with a trace of guilt, it was obvious that now that Ning Cheng came over, then he would also be involved in this matter.
Ning Cheng hastily said, “Before saying anything else, first heal your wounds.”
Saying that Ning Cheng already took out two Mysterious Frost Zoysia and said, “This is the Mysterious Frost Zoysia, there’s a stub for each of you.”
“Wait Wait….” A man with a lush beard immediately stepped forward in front of Ning Cheng and the three people, the expression on his face indicated that he really wanted to reach out and snatch the Mysterious Frost Zoysias in Ning Cheng’s hands.
Ning Cheng with extreme quickness, closed up his hands, hiding the Mysterious Frost Zoysias in his hands, and then coldly glared at that person as he spoke, “What’s the matter?”
This bearded man was already at Late Stage Essence Building Realm, although Ning Cheng did not fear him, but he still had to be careful.
“I am Dong Guo Xiao, from the Feng Continent’s 7 Rainbow Pill Sect, and am a Tier 4 Pill Master. In my hands I have a Continuous Bone Healing Pill and True Internal Organ Healing Pill. Although these Pills are only Level 3 Pills, but I am sure that for the injuries of your two friends, the effect from these would be much better than your Mysterious Frost Zoysia. I can give both of them to you, as long as you give me the Mysterious Frost Zoysias that you have.” Although this man with a face full of beard had a cultivation higher than Ning Cheng, but he actually did not come to rob them, but rather to engage in an exchange with Ning Cheng.
In the Yin Xing Mainland, not all the people were like that cultivator with the surname Qu, there would still be a few people with a disposition like Dong Guo Xiao.
In reality Ning Cheng already knew that a True Internal Organs Pill that was even a Level 3 Pill, was the best kind of Pill that could be available in such a situation. He knew that for the injuries of Cang Shuo and Meng Jing Xiu, the True Internal Organs Pill would be much better than the Mysterious Frost Zoysia.
Meng Jing Xiu’s arm was hurt very badly, but fortunately the arm was not fully split off, so with the True Internal Organs Pill it would be possible to heal up quickly.
“Ok, my Mysterious Frost Zoysia is a Rank 4 Spiritual Grass, I’ll exchange a stub of it for your two pills.” Ning Cheng said as he handed the Mysterious Frost Zoysia to Dong Guo Xiao.
He knew that if it was outside, then in order to exchange the precious Mysterious Frost Zoysia for two True Internal Organs Pill should be possible, but here trying to exchange a Mysterious Frost Zoysia for two True Internal Organs Pill would be really difficult. However, to do a business one had to pay close attention and first ask an exorbitant price, or return back the money on the spot.
If it really was not good, then he would use two of his Mysterious Frost Zoysia, after all he only had three stubs of the plant.
Dong Guo Xiao slightly hesitated, and said, “If you and I trade like this, then I would have to eat a little loss, very well, I am urgently in need of this Mysterious Frost Zoysia. Can you sell me another stub to me?”
Ning Cheng did not expect that this Dong Guo Xiao was such an honest man, since he did not even offer a counter offer, of course he would also not take out an additional stub of the Mysterious Frost Zoysia, as he went ahead and stuffed a Mysterious Frost Zoysia in his hands and spoke, “I also have an urgent need of your pills, thank you friend Dong Guo, if I come to the Fang Continent, I will definitely consider doing a business with you.”
Dong Guo Xiao also quickly gave the two pills to Ning Cheng, although he was refreshingly honest in doing business, but he really was a bit too stingy, he did not even give a Jade Bottle to Ning Cheng.
But Ning Cheng certainly did not care about that, he quickly put the pills in Cang Shuo and Meng Jing Xiu’s mouths. Then carefully picked and reattached Meng Jing Xiu’s arm with his Spiritual Consciousness, as he spoke, “Both of you quickly mobilize your True Essence, and start absorbing the medicinal properties of the pill, I have already heard of the fame of the True Internal Organs Pill, those injuries should not be of a big deal for you now.”
Meng Jing Xiu and Cang Shuo gratefully looked at Ning Cheng, but they knew that this was not the time to speak, both of them closed their eyes and quickly circulated their True Essence to heal.
Dong Guo Xiao, as if he had known that trouble would follow Ning Cheng, so after exchanging the Mysterious Frost Zoysia, he immediately left the area. In his heart he was really excited, he was in a dire need for a Mysterious Frost Zoysia, he never thought that he would obtain it this easily.
Although he was reluctant to part with the price that Ning Cheng asked, but his mental disposition was always this way, he knew that trouble would quickly find Ning Cheng. If Ning Cheng did not die by the end of it, then he would once again go and find Ning Cheng for another transaction. Of course, if Ning Cheng’s Mysterious Frost Zoysias were taken away by that person surnamed Qu, then he would just trade with that person surnamed Qu.
“Senior Apprentice Brother Xiao Cheng, that person came, he and one of his junior seriously injured Senior Sister Apprentice Jing Xiu and Senior Apprentice Brother Cang. He was also the one who took away the Essence Raising Fruit and Senior Apprentice Brother Cang’s Storage Bag, if not for another Spiritual Grass Hill being opened, he would have already killed all three of us.” Ruimu Dan Qin saw that that cultivator surnamed Qu come over again, stood up in terror behind Ning Cheng and carefully spoke.
“Ha Ha, so there really was another person who came to die. Is this your Senior Apprentice Brother Xiao Cheng? Since you all have come together, then in the near future you all can also die together and would not have to worry about each other’s company……” Before seriously injuring them and looting Cang Shuo’s Storage Bag, that cultivator surnamed Qu had still not arrived, when his voice was immediately transmitted over to them.
