Chapter 439 Both Sides Hesitant to Strike the Rat

Tensions were high between the two sides.

The main issue is that Lu Xueqi and Biyao don't get along.

Youji gently grasped Biyao's wrist and shook her head.

Lu Xing'er stood beside Lu Xueqi, offering her support.

Lin Zhu, who was not far away, seemed to have been forgotten. He spoke up and said, "Let's go out first."

"Do you have a way to get out?"

Biyao turned to look at Lin Zhu. They, the members of the Demonic Sect, had no solution for the Blood Drop Cave, but Lin Zhu had one first.

It's somewhat unbelievable.

Lu Xueqi and Lü Xing'er were also puzzled.

But they still followed Lin Zhu to another stone chamber.

Lin Zhu picked up two weapons leaning against the stone wall and placed them in the hands of the two statues.

Blood-red light blazed brightly in the Blood-Dripping Cave, and array patterns appeared, then rapidly decomposed.

The cave was on the verge of collapse.

"Oh no, the Blood-Dripping Cave is about to collapse."

Yu Ji was slightly flustered.

Lin Zhu extended his divine sense outwards; this stone wall was only a few feet away from the outside of the mountain.

"Follow behind me."

He spoke to Lu Xueqi and Lü Xing'er.

Without the slightest hesitation, the two women stood behind Lin Zhu.

Biyao, Youji, and Jin Ping'er could only trust Lin Zhu.

Lin Zhu swirled his hands together, one yin and one yang, pressing them against the stone wall.

Without the support of the array, the stone wall was very brittle. Rotated by the Yin-Yang energy of Tai Chi, it quickly formed a passage.

Lin Zhu led the way quickly, followed by the group of women.

In less than ten breaths, they appeared outside the Dripping Blood Cave.

At this point, a full eight days had passed since they entered the Dripping Blood Cave.

Upon exiting the Dripping Blood Cave, Biyao and Youji immediately became cautious.

Jin Ping'er, however, remained completely calm.

Lu Xueqi and Lü Xing'er also released their auras at the same time.

The two sides were once again on the verge of conflict.

However, seeing that Lin Zhu showed no intention of making a move, they simply remained neutral and did not immediately retaliate.

Lu Xueqi and Biyao both looked at him.

Lin Zhu looked to the other side, sensing danger, and kept staring at it.

"Hahaha!"

A hearty laugh echoed through the mountains and forests. "Young friend, your insight is extraordinary; I admire you greatly."

The Ghost King Sect Master, Wan Renwang, flew over, accompanied by a blue dragon. He flashed through the air and stood in front of Bi Yao, protecting her.

Lin Zhu clasped his hands in a fist salute and asked, feigning ignorance, "May I ask who you are?"

He stood silently in front of Lu Xueqi and Lü Xing'er, just as everyone else was protecting Biyao.

"The Ghost King Sect attracts tens of thousands of people."

"Ghost King Sect, Azure Dragon."

The two introduced themselves.

Lu Xueqi said, "These are the sect leader of the Ghost King Sect and the Azure Dragon Protector."

Even when faced with a task from Wan Renwang, which was no less important than that of any chief, she remained neither humble nor arrogant.

This made both Wanrenwang and Qinglong admire Lu Xueqi very much.

"Indeed, I am the Sect Master of the Ghost King Sect. The three of you are all young and promising talents; why not join my Ghost King Sect?"

Lin Zhu shook his head, "Those who walk different paths cannot make plans together!"

"Well said, those who walk different paths cannot make plans together. In that case, you may leave."

Wanrenwang did not want to clash with Lin Zhu at this moment, especially with Biyao present. He felt that he could not defeat Lin Zhu.

That feeling was indeed correct, after all, even the pine trees were no match for the bamboo.

Lin Zhu also did not want to clash with Wan Renwang. Although Wan Renwang was not in the Void Realm, he was only a step away from it and was more powerful than Cang Song and Tian Buyi.

Therefore, he directly reached out and grabbed Lu Xueqi and Lü Xing'er's hands, and with a burst of wind and thunder beneath his feet, he instantly fled at an extremely fast speed.

Such speed caused Wan Renwang's expression to freeze; 'They've released a tiger back into the mountains!'

But at this moment, he had to protect his daughter, so even knowing this, there was nothing he could do.

Even without Biyao, he and Qinglong were confident they could keep Lin Zhu.

Seeing that no fight broke out, Biyao and Youji both breathed a sigh of relief.

Everyone turned to look at the two of them, especially at Biyao. "Yao'er, are you alright? Did those three righteous juniors bully you?"

No, no.

Biyao didn't look at Wanrenwang, turning her head to the other side. She didn't know how to get along with Wanrenwang.

Wanrenwang seemed to understand something, waved to Qinglong and Youji, and then said to Jin Ping'er, "You can leave now."

"Sect Master Wan, farewell!" Jin Ping'er hurriedly led her two junior sisters from the Hehuan Sect away.

After only the two of them remained, Wan Renwang said, "Yao'er, I apologize for not taking good care of you these past few years."

At this moment, the father and daughter opened their hearts to each other.

Of course, none of this concerns Lin Zhu.

He led Lu Xueqi and Lü Xing'er and kept running until they unknowingly ran out of Kongsang Mountain.

"Phew, it's all over now."

Lin Zhu breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Xing'er patted her chest and said, "Luckily we didn't lay a hand on Bi Yao before, or we would have been dead."

Lu Xueqi didn't answer, but looked at Lin Zhu and said, "Thank you, you saved my life again."

"It also saved my life." Lü Xing'er looked at Lin Zhu, a smile blooming on her face.

Neither of them were ungrateful.

Lin Zhu nodded and looked at Lü Xing'er, "Xing'er, are you going back to the Yiyuan Sect next?"

"Hmm~~" Lü Xing'er shook her head repeatedly, "I'm not going back. I want to play outside a little longer. Can I stay with you guys?"

"We're going back to Qingyun Sect to report. Do you want to come with us?"

Lu Xueqi started talking more, but her tone remained cold.

Fortunately, unlike before, he doesn't only utter a few words in a sentence, and his tone of voice is more varied.

"May I visit Qingyun Sect? I've heard that your guardian beast is the Water Qilin, but I've never seen one before!"

After escaping danger, Lü Xing'er became very lively.

"No, I won't go back to Qingyun Sect yet."

Lin Zhu pointed in one direction and said, "Let's go take a look to the east. I feel like there's something there that's attracting me."

“Okay, I’ll go with you.” Lü Xing’er looked at Lin Zhu with a bright smile.

Lu Xueqi didn't say anything else, she just looked at Lin Zhu, and the meaning was self-evident.

Lin Zhu didn't refuse them and nodded, saying, "Then let's go together."

The three of them did not fly on swords, but instead used their footwork techniques to walk eastward. Before sunset, they arrived at a small town bustling with people.

If it weren't for the fact that all of Lin Zhu's memories from his past life were still very clear, he might not have been able to seize this opportunity.

The Mysterious Fire Mirror is the most prized treasure of Burning Incense Valley.

It was obtained by two fox demons, a six-tailed white fox and a three-tailed white fox.

As we entered the town, we heard someone say, "It's been two months, a full two months! We don't know how many cattle and sheep our town has lost. What are we going to do?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Xueqi immediately deduced that a demon was at work.

With a swift movement, he arrived in front of the group of people who had spoken. "Has a demon appeared?"

The group was startled by Lu Xueqi and took several steps back.

But when they saw that she was a girl who looked like a fairy, they calmed down and looked her over carefully before asking, "Is this the immortal master in person?"

"Lu Xueqi of Qingyun Sect".

Chapter 440 Full Moon Well: I've Cracked Apart

As one of the seven major sects of Xuanzhou, Qingyun Sect is not a reclusive sect, so its reputation is quite well-known among ordinary people.

Upon hearing that it was a celestial master from the Qingyun Sect, the group immediately knelt down, pleading, "Celestial master, please save us! If that demon eats us again, countless of us will starve to death soon."

Lu Xueqi helped them up and said, "Tell me in detail."

Then I heard several people talking amongst themselves.

"For the first half month, things were alright. It was just a matter of one family losing a chicken or a duck. We thought it was just some petty thief, so we didn't pay any attention. But after half a month, things started to go wrong. First, the sheep disappeared, and then even the pigs were stolen."

And there was absolutely no response; even the arrival of the authorities was of no use. Just yesterday, Old Zhang's cow was stolen—a cow, after all!
