Chapter 108: Death without surprising words
Seeing Cheng Lingshu's slightly suspicious look, Xie Jingxiu remained calm and said in a gentle voice, "Later, I saw Junior Sister Mingshu heading towards Sunset Plain from a distance, and that's when I started to guess."
Cheng Shuyan sneered and ignored him, pulling Cheng Lingshu and Ye Chenghuan to leave, but the sound transmission jade talisman in the storage bag suddenly moved.
This jade talisman is used to communicate with Jiang Hongyue and Ji Qinglin. The two have been missing for many years and there has been no news, but now there is movement in this Forest of No Return.
She took out the sound transmission jade talisman, read the contents with her spiritual sense, and immediately looked at Cheng Lingshu with some embarrassment.
"Lingshu, Fellow Daoist Ye, I... I have something to do. I'm afraid I can't go with you. You go meet up with the others first, and I'll come look for you after I get out. Okay?"
Ye Chenghuan didn't have any objection, but Cheng Lingshu was unwilling.
"Sister, the Forest of No Return is full of dangers. What if you encounter danger again alone? Let me go with you."
"It's okay, I'll just be careful, don't worry."
She was really in a dilemma. The news was brought by Jiang Hongyue, who specifically told her to go alone.
Xie Jingxiu's eyes lingered on the sound transmission jade talisman in her hand for a moment, then he turned around and said to Cheng Lingshu:
"Lingshu, Junior Sister Mingshu's sound transmission jade talisman is very expensive. I'm afraid someone very important is looking for her. Since Junior Sister Mingshu can't go with you, please don't make things difficult for her."
Cheng Lingshu heard this, and a look of sadness flashed across his face. Then he warned her, "Then be careful, sister. I'll wait for you at the exit."
Cheng Shuyan knew what she was thinking. Xie Jingxiu's words were nothing but provocation.
Cheng Lingshu came to find her regardless of his own safety, but she wanted others to leave Cheng Lingshu behind. How could she not feel sad?
However, Jiang Hongyue's matter was urgent at the moment, so she didn't bother to explain. She just said goodbye in a hurry and parted ways with the three of them.
According to the location Jiang Hongyue said, Cheng Shuyan found the valley where Jiang Hongyue and the other person were half a day later.
There were two shabby houses in the valley that could neither shelter from the wind nor from the rain, and two sets of clothes were hanging outside the houses.
At this time, smoke was curling up in the house, and Ji Qinglin was sweeping the chicken feathers on the ground with a broom.
She ran over quickly, but bumped into the formation and was knocked down by the force of the formation.
Ji Qinglin looked up at her and burst into laughter. He took out the formation plate, opened the formation and let her in.
"Hahahaha, little junior sister, after not seeing you for several years, you're still so dumb and stupid!"
This man!
He looks like an icy face, but actually he is dark and vicious!
"Big Brother! Since you think I'm stupid, I can't help you in any way. Where's my sister? I'm here to pick her up!"
Seeing this, Ji Qinglin immediately admitted his mistake: "Junior Sister, I was wrong, I was wrong. How about I give you some of my chickens after we get out? Don't bother with me!"
Jiang Hongyue heard the noise outside and came out with a spoon.
"I'm still thinking about your chickens! It's been so many years, I'm afraid the old man would have eaten all your chickens long ago!"
Cheng Shuyan immediately stepped forward and took her arm, saying with a smile, "The only one who knows Master is Senior Sister!"
As soon as these words were spoken, two sounds of gloating laughter and an extremely angry shout were heard in the valley.
"Hahahahaha!!!"
"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!"
……
The three of them sat around a table made of stone slabs. On the table was the chicken that Jiang Hongyue had just fried. The chicken was steaming and the aroma was fragrant.
Cheng Shuyan hadn't tasted this familiar flavor for a long time. His appetite was aroused and he picked up a piece of meat and put it into his mouth.
She stared at the meat on the plate, not even raising her head, and mumbled, "Tell me, why are you two here? And what's with your cultivation?"
She couldn't even sense a trace of spiritual power from Jiang Hongyue and Ji Qinglin. These two people had now truly become two mortals with no cultivation at all.
Ji Qinglin lowered his head and said nothing. Jiang Hongyue stammered as she began to explain, "Well, we both broke in and broke the rules of the Forest of No Return, so... this is what happened now."
Cheng Shuyan raised his head and pressed aggressively, "How did you get in? How long have you been here? Your cultivation is gone. What's with that formation outside the yard? Why did you ask me to come and save you?"
"It's a coincidence... yes, it's a coincidence! Hehe, little junior sister, we knew you would definitely join in the fun in the Bugui Forest, and look, you're here!"
Ji Qinglin was obviously feeling guilty and lacked confidence when speaking.
Cheng Shuyan had an expression that said, "Are you taking me for a fool?" "Tell me, what are your cultivation levels?"
After hearing this, the two of them felt even more guilty. Jiang Hongyue looked at her cautiously and said with a flattering smile, "Junior Sister, have you discovered?"
"I've noticed it a long time ago!" Cheng Shuyan said unhappily, "When you two were in the sect before, you were always talking nonsense and something was wrong.
Two cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage actually bought such a large industry in the market town, and were able to hold it safely in their hands!
Later, when you saw Fuling, you said without hesitation that you wanted to accept her as your disciple. Which foundation-building cultivator would be so confident in accepting a disciple?
Now you two are saying you broke in, but this is the Forest of No Return! Even though it’s just a secret realm for foundation-building cultivators to train, which foundation-building cultivator has such great ability to break in?
"What about the old man? Does he know?" Jiang Hongyue asked again.
"He doesn't know. Master is such a smart person. Even if he has some doubts in his heart, he is too lazy to delve into it." Cheng Shuyan glanced at her with a very tough attitude:
"Don't try to change the subject, tell the truth!"
"Okay, Junior Sister, let me tell you, be mentally prepared." Ji Qinglin took a deep breath and spoke in a serious tone.
"Yeah! I'm ready!"
"I'm in the late Nascent Soul stage." Ji Qinglin's face was calm.
"I'm in the middle stage of Nascent Soul." Jiang Hongyue remained calm.
"Puff~~~" The tea in Cheng Shuyan's mouth suddenly sprayed out.
These two people never stop until they say something shocking!
"Do you know what you are talking about???" She was stunned for a moment, still in disbelief.
She guessed that these two people had probably hidden their cultivation level, but she also guessed that at most they were at the Jindan stage, just like Wuwei Zhenren.
I didn't expect these two people to do something big, and they actually reached the Nascent Soul stage!
"I know!" Jiang Hongyue and Ji Qinglin nodded in unison.
"Do you two know what I was thinking when I first went to the sect?" Cheng Shuyan asked sadly.
This time, both of them shook their heads.
"At that time, I felt that our sect was so poor that we didn't even have a decent house. My master was a child, and my brothers and sisters didn't care about worldly affairs. I spent all day thinking about finding a way to earn spirit stones to improve everyone's situation.
Later, I went to the market with you two and found that you had no shortage of spirit stones. I also thought that you two didn't want to practice all day long, and it was extremely difficult to buy elixirs for the cultivation after the foundation was established. So I decided to learn the art of alchemy. If you and the master need it in the future, I can help you.
Who knew that even this was just my wishful thinking and you won’t need it at all! "
She sounded extremely aggrieved, her face wrinkled into a ball, leaving Jiang Hongyue and Ji Qinglin stunned.
