Chapter 38 The Little Mute Has So Many Secrets
Seeing Liu Ruyan bound like a dumpling, he drew his sword and stabbed her in the neck again.
Even if you play dead, you won't survive this time.
He fired a fireball, instantly setting the person on fire.
"Qianqian, I've avenged them both! If your sect wants to investigate, let them investigate. Just pretend you don't know anything. I'll keep all her things for myself, so you won't be exposed."
Ji Se was furious: "I'm not afraid! She's already dead anyway, the sect won't do anything to me, but you're different, the sect will definitely come after you."
[No, what are you two thinking? Have you forgotten I exist? I shielded Sister Fan from view when you decided to kill her.]
[There's something else I haven't told you all: this place has been blocked by some powerful figure, and no one can access it.]
Ji Se: "This is amazing, could there be something good here?"
Tu Shan: "Very likely! Haven't you noticed that the trials here are far too mild?"
Ji Se: "Yeah, it's not like a test at all. It's more like a group of us coming to a place and playing hide-and-seek with the treasures here. Finding them is a matter of luck, and not finding them is not a punishment."
Tu Shan: "Yes, maybe it's because the previous owner here was gentle and didn't like fighting. Otherwise, even though I offended her so much in that herb garden, she didn't throw me out or kill us out directly."
Okay, let's talk about this later. I'm so tired, I need to rest for a bit.
Ji Se: "Okay, go replenish your energy, I'll meet up with you in that direction."
There was no response, so Ji Se got up and woke up Cheng Nan, who was still cultivating.
"Senior brother, let's go first!"
"Where?"
"do not know!"
After walking for a day, Zhong Qi still couldn't bear it and turned back.
Suddenly sensing the fluctuations in spiritual energy, he worried that the "little mute" was being beaten up, and a feeling of pity flashed through his heart.
A person who strives so hard to live deserves to be treated kindly, at least in his case.
He ran at breakneck speed, leaving only his ever-moving shadow on the grassland.
The fluctuations in spiritual energy became increasingly obvious. Suddenly, he stopped and looked at a wall of plants in front of him, his eyes flashing slightly.
The "little mute" has many secrets.
He stepped back a little; if he didn't want people to know, then he would pretend not to know.
He retreated another kilometer and sat cross-legged to practice meditation.
After resting, Tu Shan began packing her things and headed towards Ji Se.
Unfortunately, my health is too poor; after walking for an hour, I need to rest for two hours.
Ji Se and Cheng Nan walked for a while and then rested for a few hours.
"Go there and receive the inheritance."
A map appears in my mind, with the destination marked by a circle.
Ji Se opened his eyes, hurriedly got up, and took a few steps forward.
Hey! It's a map with navigation.
Cheng Nan looked at Ji Se pacing back and forth and asked, "Junior Sister, what's wrong?"
A flicker of interest crossed Ji Se's eyes, and he asked excitedly, "Has a map appeared in your mind's eye?"
Cheng Nan nodded: "Yes, I was just about to tell you."
Gise didn't say much, and followed the map's directions: "Okay, let's talk as we go."
Cheng Nan followed.
"Junior sister, I guess everyone has this inheritance, and it all points to the same location. Soon, the eight of us will gather. You'll stay by my side then, okay?"
"Row!"
Zhong Qi looked at the map in his mind, pondered for a while, then got up and walked towards Tu Shan, who was resting.
Tu Shan, who was sleeping soundly, was startled by the eight large characters in her mind, which made her eyes hurt.
The noise made it seem as if she would stay awake forever if she didn't get up, so she had no choice but to obediently open her eyes.
The flash disappeared the instant I opened my eyes, leaving only a map.
Pack your things and leave according to the map.
Zhong Qi was about to approach when he suddenly remembered something, so he just followed at a distance.
[Sister Shan, are you really not going to do anything about him? He's been following you for days!]
"It's okay. I didn't sense any malice from him, and he didn't seem to want to expose me."
【OK!】
"Ok!"
Tu Shan already knew of Zhong Qi's existence; the system had told her when he was walking back.
If they haven't asked, it means they're pretending not to know.
Why should she worry unnecessarily?
Zhong Qi was aloof yet extremely measured in his demeanor. He was neither a person with a heart for the world nor a villain.
Not too close, not too far, is just right.
"Little mute, Grandmaster, where are you? Your grand-disciple is waiting for you to save him!"
"Zhong Qi, where have you been, you lazy bum? Do you know your dear junior brother is waiting for you to come home for dinner?"
Geng Yu has been feeling incredibly bored these past few days. He hasn't met a single person, has no direction in finding anyone, and has no direction in his cultivation.
Walking in this direction for half a day, all I saw was grassland, and more grassland.
Even after traveling for half a day in a different direction, the grassland is still grassland.
I thought about calling Zhong Qi, but there was no response at all, so I could only focus on my cultivation.
When I'm bored, I just go by instinct.
Practice when you're even more bored.
When I'm incredibly bored, I start rambling on and on.
Just now, just now, when he woke up, eight large characters and a map appeared in his mind.
Finally having a direction, after another round of muttering, I got up and set off.
"Hey, there's a hint too. It's not far, only a quarter of an hour away. Should we rest a bit more? No, let's go check it out first."
Geng Yu slowly made her way towards her destination.
He dragged out a journey that should have taken a quarter of an hour into two.
Upon arriving at the destination, I looked around and saw that the grassland was still the same grassland.
"Little mute, Grandmaster, how much longer? Do you know that your dear grand-disciple wants to inherit your mantle?"
"Zhong Qi, Zhong Qi, do you know how long your dear junior brother has been waiting for you? If you don't come soon, I'm going to sleep!"
After Geng Yu finished muttering to himself, he lay down directly: "I miss my soft couch. I should prepare a few more in my storage ring next time, otherwise I'll be the one suffering!"
How can we persuade the little mute boy to return to the sect and become the grandmaster?
What a headache! My useless master is probably still tinkering around, trying to improve the success rate and the pill yield!
It's a pity that the problem you've been studying for a thousand years was solved by the little mute! Didn't expect that, did you? Surprised? Unexpected!
I'll figure something out, phew...
The faint sound of breathing seemed particularly loud on the grassland.
"Fan, how much longer do you estimate it will take?"
"It'll be soon, probably a day's journey."
Ji Se laughed and said, "I might be a little later than you, probably two more days. Take your time, your health is important. Opportunities are all about fate."
"Okay, I know, I'll rest for a bit!"
After waking up, Tu Shan continued on his journey, stopping and starting along the way, and finally arrived at his destination the following evening.
"Hahaha! Is that you, little mute?"
Hearing the sound coming from afar, Tu Shan shuddered.
"Hahaha, little mute, I've come to pick you up! Grandmaster, let your grand-disciple help you up!"
Seeing Geng Yu rushing towards him, Tu Shan chose to keep quiet.
My arm was grabbed, and I could hear a chattering sound in my ear.
"Grandmaster, you must be tired from your journey. I knew we were heading to the same destination. Don't worry, your grand-disciple is incredibly clever."
"Grandmaster, have you run into anyone else these past few days? Have you encountered my wooden-headed senior brother, Zhong Qi?"
