Her physical constitution was no match for Ren Tingting, who had already stepped into the threshold of cultivation. She had been holding on for a while, but now she was starting to feel the strain. At first, she could still chat and laugh with Bai Ye and Ren Tingting.

By the time she reached the second half, she was too exhausted to even speak, but she kept quiet so that Bai Ye wouldn't think she was spoiled.

"Go and rest for a bit. It's a miracle your body could hold up after walking for so long."

Bai Ye chuckled and nodded, then gently patted Ren Qingqing's shoulder. A warm current flowed into her, and Ren Qingqing felt her fatigue vanish instantly. This miraculous scene surprised Ren Qingqing, who then looked up at Bai Ye in disbelief and asked, "Master, what is this?"

"It's just some minor tricks. Since you're tired, take a break."

"Mmm, actually I'm not tired anymore."

Ren Qingqing's face was slightly flushed. She had indeed been a little tired, but after Bai Ye's method, she felt much more energetic.

She was also a little embarrassed, because it wouldn't be good if she delayed her schedule.

"Hehe, let's eat something. We've been traveling all day without eating. It's good to rest!"

Ren Tingting grabbed Ren Qingqing's hand, clearly wanting to rest as well, mainly because she was a little hungry.

After listening to Ren Tingting's words, Ren Qingqing didn't refute anything in the end. Since everyone had said so, it would be a bit pretentious for her to say anything else.

"He really is a greenhorn."

Bai Ye glanced at the two people behind him without leaving a trace, and felt a surge of emotion. Didn't they ever think about why there would be an inn in this deep mountain forest?

Who would open an inn in this remote mountain forest?

But this is a good opportunity to teach them a lesson.

Bai Ye took Ren Tingting and Ren Qingqing into the inn and released Da Huang and Xiao Hei from his sleeve.

Ren Tingting is alright, but Ren Qingqing is different. She's just an ordinary person, so it's better to let Da Huang and Xiao Hei come out for a while to protect her.

"Is Master preparing to eat dog meat?"

"."

You actually want to eat your senior brother?

A strange look flashed across Bai Ye's face, while Da Huang looked at Ren Qingqing with an expression as if he had seen a ghost.

what's the situation?

It was just sleeping in my sleeve, and now that it's been let out, it's going to be eaten?

My family has protected our sect for generations, and in the end, we were eaten like dog meat?

Did you eat dog meat today?

Xiao Hei suddenly raised his head and looked at Bai Ye, "Da Huang, Da Huang, I can't save you!"

Suddenly, Xiao Hei seemed to realize something. He felt that he was also in danger. If he could eat dog meat today, could he eat himself tomorrow?

"Qingqing, this is the big yellow dog that Master raises, and this is the little black dog. They are not food, and we cultivators cannot eat dogs!"

Ren Tingting quickly tugged at Qingqing's sleeve, signaling her not to talk nonsense.

How could you eat Big Yellow? Big Yellow is so cute.

In other words, Bai Ye did not release Da Huang and Xiao Hei when he was with Master Simu.

Therefore, Ren Qingqing did not know either of them.

After making such a fool of herself, Ren Qingqing blushed and apologized, "I'm so sorry, I didn't know, I'm so sorry, Da Huang!"

As she spoke, she reached out to touch Big Yellow's head, but Big Yellow nimbly dodged her and then barked.

joke!

Even rhubarb has its pride, you know!

It just said it wanted to eat me, and now you want to pet it? Does it really think it's a stupid dog?

"I'm so sorry, how about I cook you something delicious next time?"

Ren Qingqing squatted down, looked directly at Da Huang, and clasped her hands together as if begging for forgiveness.

It was indeed her fault for not recognizing her senior brother. However, Ren Qingqing never expected that her senior brother would actually be a big yellow dog.

In response to Ren Qingqing's apology, Da Huang held its head high, looking on with a "let's see how you do" attitude. An excellent Da Huang dog would never lower its proud head, nor would it beg for anyone's mercy!

This is its unique pride, the elegance and composure of the older generation of dogs.

"gone."

Wang!

Hearing Bai Ye's words, Da Huang wagged its tail and quickly followed Bai Ye, a fawning smile on its face. It rubbed against Bai Ye's trouser leg, clearly wanting to die for its sect leader.

This simp.

Bai Ye was somewhat speechless, so he sped up a bit while silently chanting "lottery draw" in his mind.

Ren Qingqing just got a chance to win a prize, but she didn't use it.

[Ding! Congratulations on using one lottery chance to win: Samadhi True Fire]

ah!!?

ah? ? !

Is it the Samadhi True Fire he was thinking of?

Bai Ye felt a surge of excitement; this thing was no ordinary artifact.

Red Boy could use his Samadhi Fire to burn Sun Wukong to a crisp.

Although this is also related to his own strength, if he were to use the Samadhi True Fire on Sun Wukong, Sun Wukong wouldn't be afraid at all.

The Samadhi True Fire is different from other Taoist arts. It seems that the stronger the practitioner is, the stronger it becomes, because the Samadhi True Fire is formed by the practitioner's own body.

However, this is more than enough for Bai Ye. It is a growth-type skill, and the stronger he becomes, the stronger this ability will become.

"Is something wrong?"

After Da Huang followed Bai Ye into the inn, he noticed something was wrong with it. Xiao Hei, standing beside him, also stood up and looked around.

And then there's Bai Ye, who seems distracted.

The waiter, carrying a kettle and with a rag slung over his back, hurried up to Bai Ye and his companions, asking with a fawning expression, "Guests, are you staying here?"

"No, do you run an inn here to pick up and drop off guests, or do you send them off on their way?"

Bai Ye snapped out of his daze and looked around. This didn't seem to be what he had imagined. He had thought it was a haunted shop, but now it seemed he had underestimated it.

"Uh, which school or sect are you from, guest?"

The waiter's smile vanished, his face instantly turning serious and his expression darkening. He straightened his previously hunched back.

He knew that the person in front of him was knowledgeable.

"Bai Ye, the leader of the Shenxiao Sect."

"The Divine Firmament Sect? I'm so sorry, we're here to send guests to the Yellow Springs. But if you're from the Divine Firmament Sect, then just pretend I didn't say anything. Would you like something, sir?"

"Just bring me any food, don't give me anything that looks like ghost food."

"Of course!"

The waiter nodded, then turned and left. Ren Qingqing and Ren Tingting, who were standing nearby, couldn't help but swallow hard. They pointed in the direction the waiter had left and asked, "Master, what did that mean?"

They seemed to have stumbled upon an unusual little shop by accident.

"This is a ghost shop, a place that sends people to their deaths. Anyone who enters will surely die."

Bai Ye said calmly.

"Huh? Does that mean we're dead?"

Ren Qingqing's face turned deathly pale. After realizing that she seemed to be the culprit, she almost cried from her own stupidity.

If it weren't for me, they would never have encountered such a thing!

“Every single one of these inns located in the mountains is eerie. No one would open an inn in such a desolate place. This is the first lesson I’m teaching you.”

Master!

My dear master!

Don't risk your life to teach us a lesson, okay?

They were both on the verge of tears. With the waiter carrying the dishes over with six hands, they felt that this was their last meal, and after this meal, they would go to the underworld together.

"This shop is mostly frequented by ghosts. Ghosts are naturally sent to the underworld, but for the living, once they enter the shop, their fate is sealed!"

The waiter picked up where Bai Ye left off with a smile and then placed the plates in front of Bai Ye and his companions.

Then the other two plates were placed in front of Big Yellow and Little Black.

"But you don't need to worry about yourselves."

"why?"

Ren Tingting breathed a sigh of relief, but was also a little curious.

Why don't they need to worry?

"Because we have people both above and below us."

Bai Ye said calmly.

This is the advantage of being from a reputable sect. If he were a rogue cultivator, he would only have one way to get out today: fight his way out, otherwise he would be doomed inside.

"Look at what you're saying, sir. I know your strength all too well. Even if you don't have connections, we can't stop you!"

There are ghost generals in this shop, but he felt it was a bit unrealistic to think they could stop Bai Ye, mainly because the Shenxiao Sect's thunder magic was incredibly powerful.

Even ghost generals are afraid.

"Now I finally understand what it means to have influence and connections in this world."

Ren Qingqing murmured, "Is this what it feels like to have connections in higher-ups?"

It feels so good to have someone protecting you.

"Master, so you knew about the situation here beforehand?"

Ren Tingting knew perfectly well that Bai Ye knew everything about this place and was doing it on purpose.
