Primordial Qi

Chapter 235 U-Turn

The border of Yunzhou is covered with dense trees. It is the residence of monsters and the largest habitat of monsters in the south. The people here earn spirit stones mainly by hunting monsters. Gu Chenyu and his companions were unaware of the dangers inside and flew directly over.

"Brother, why do I have a bad feeling? There are dense trees and mountains ahead, and we are already flying at an altitude of 30,000 meters. Some of the mountains in front of us are 30,000 meters or even higher. If there are some high-level monsters living in them, we will be in trouble." There was worry in Xiao Tian's eyes. His eyelids had been twitching wildly since he stepped into here, and the feeling of uneasiness in his heart grew stronger.

"You are right. If you go any further inside, you will die in misery even if you are a cultivator at the king level." Wang Xuanzhi's voice suddenly came. He came to the spaceship and knocked on Xiao Tian and Lin Xiu's heads.

Gu Chenyu was not spared either. The monarch's hand was too fast and he was slammed directly on him without even a chance to dodge.

"Hey, deputy headmaster, what are you doing?"

The three people covered their heads in pain, feeling their brains buzzing. This stinky Taoist priest had no moral principles and actually attacked them from behind.

"Damn it, you dare to talk back."

Before they could see clearly what Wang Xuanzhi had done, a big bump appeared on the three men's heads.

"Wrong, wrong, Deputy Master, if you hit me again my head will rot." The three immediately begged for mercy.

"But why are you here? We left the sect to avoid suspicion. You can't get involved in this. I heard that many people will die." Gu Chenyu advised kindly.

Wang Xuanzhi rolled his eyes. How could he not know that he couldn't get involved in this muddy water? It was because the old sect leader was worried that the three of them would be in danger on the road, otherwise he wouldn't bother to follow.

"Guess if it was Lao Lin who asked me to come here? I've been eating dust in the back for a month, and you guys didn't even invite me for a cup of tea?" Wang Xuanzhi said unhappily.

"Drink, coming right up."

Gu Chenyu took out a teapot from the storage room, put in a few tea leaves and boiled them over a flame. Soon, a rich tea aroma wafted from it.

Lin Xiu sniffed the scent and looked at Gu Chenyu with some resentment. He said sourly like a woman who was abandoned, "Isn't there no tea? Big brother, you actually played tricks on the brothers. It's really hurtful."

"Ahem, I just said there wasn't much left, but I didn't say there was none left. If we squeezed a little, there would still be a little left. Besides, we have to have something to entertain people when we get to Yunzhou, right? I didn't drink secretly, so it's not considered cheating my brothers."

Gu Chenyu scratched his head. It was indeed embarrassing to be exposed on the spot. He handed a cup of tea to everyone and laughed to avoid this embarrassing situation.

"Really? Anyway, brother is sad and upset."

"Oh, Old Lin, why are you acting like a grudge? You actually want to use this trick to cheat me of my tea. I really don't have much left."

"Hahaha." Xiao Tian couldn't stop laughing. Lin Xiu's appearance was simply too funny. This was not the way to ask for tea!

"Don't interrupt. Why don't you three get off the spaceship? If you go any further inside, you will be targeted by the demon kings. You won't even have a chance to run away."

Wang Xuanzhi took a sip of tea, and Xiao Tian immediately went to stop the spaceship. They were already proficient in operating the spaceship, and it stopped in a short while.

"But you didn't come here just because you're worried, right? Please share some information with us as soon as possible." Gu Chenyu rubbed his hands and looked at him expectantly.

"I knew you three brats were stupid. You didn't even make a plan before going to Yunzhou. There are many monsters in that place, and only one-third of the human population lives there. The Dawu army didn't attack because they couldn't break in. Otherwise, the territory of Yunzhou would be even larger."

Wang Xuanzhi took out the map. He had collected a lot of things along the way, and gave them all to the three people, so that they wouldn't go in confused and not know what was going on.

"Hiss, there are actually demon beasts of the king level and even great demons of the emperor level in here?"

The three of them took a deep breath. They thought that Yunzhou had no more than seventh-level monsters, but they didn't expect that there were even great monsters at the Emperor Realm.

"The King Beast and the Imperial Beast are no joke, but it's highly unlikely that you'll encounter one. It's too weird inside, and it's hard to discuss it with you in detail. After all, my time is limited."

"Deputy Master, didn't the Sect Master bring any private goods for us?" Lin Xiu asked curiously.

"What? You still want contraband? The old master has given all he could. His only savings have been used to build the Qingming Sect. He has to tighten his belt to make ends meet, and you still want contraband. I guess he will suck my blood when I go back. Just thinking about it makes me cry."

Lin Xiu scratched his head in embarrassment. Yes, the ancestor looked reluctant when he handed the things to him. Now he should not have that look anymore.

"Look, your Lin family squeezed out something. They did something wrong before, but after all, they are from the same clan. You shouldn't hold a grudge against them too much."

Wang Xuanzhi spoke in a gentle tone. This kid had suffered a lot in the past. His lineage was driven out of the Lin family, causing him to lose resources for more than ten years. Otherwise, he would have reached the great perfection of the Heavenly Man Realm long ago.

Lin Xiu looked grim, but he still took the storage ring. He would never forget the suppression by his clan members. Those guys all had ugly smiles on their faces. After all, a genius in the clan was defeated by him. How could they not hate him?

He even had some doubts whether the old ancestor had some selfish motives, so he squeezed out some small things to ease the relationship between himself and the clan. He didn't think those old guys in the clan would be so kind.

"And you. When I passed by your old Xiao family, you insisted that I bring you here. Your old man has some vision and knows that you can accomplish great things. This storage ring only needs to drip your blood to know what is inside. But your family probably can't come up with anything good, so don't have too high expectations."

Xiao Tian felt warm in his heart. His father still cared about him. The family had at most a Grandmaster cultivator. It was enough for his father to have this intention. However, when he thought about the difficulty of returning to the family in the future, he felt a little sad.

After chatting with Wang Xuanzhi for a while, he patted his butt and left. Gu Chenyu felt a little envious, as they all had relatives to worry about!

After reaching into his arms, Gu Chenyu was horrified to find that the tea leaves in his arms were gone. It was a whole box, and they were his last few tea leaves.

"Fuck you, Fatty, come back here."

Gu Chenyu cursed loudly. No wonder he felt empty in his chest just now. It turned out that his things were taken away by Wang Xuanzhi.

Xiao Tian and Lin Xiu were startled by the sudden roar and looked at Gu Chenyu in confusion: "Brother, what's wrong?"

"That fat guy took away our tea. It was a whole box." Gu Chenyu said with heartache.

"Damn, what are we going to drink along the way?" Xiao Tian swore seldom. His hobbies were nothing more than the eight elegant things of playing music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, wine, flowers and tea. How was he going to get through the hard days without tea?

"Brother, didn't you say you had no more?" Lin Xiu's eyes were full of resentment. His brother had hidden away all his good things and didn't even know how to take them out to share.

"There is some stock, but it is really gone now."

Gu Chenyu felt like crying but had no tears. Even though he had borrowed all these from them whenever he had nothing to do, they were his assets and they were just taken away by that fat Taoist priest. He couldn't help feeling sad.

The corners of Wang Xuanzhi's mouth couldn't help but rise. He was usually taken advantage of by him, but now he took it all back. At least he would have tea to drink when he returned to Qingming Sect.

"What are the ghosts howling for? It's so loud."

Song Wanqiu came to the deck angrily, gave each of the three of them a big chestnut, then took Zhou Youwei's hand and left.

The three of them wailed, "Is there any justice in this world? We are not even allowed to cry?"

Zhou Youwei covered her mouth and laughed secretly. The three people who were fearless on weekdays were actually afraid of this young-looking girl. After being beaten, they only dared to whimper softly and did not dare to fight back at all.

"Turn around and enter Yunzhou from a safe place."

The spaceship slowly sailed away. The last person who was secretly monitoring it twitched his mouth. He was just about to go back and report, why did these three turn around again?

Guo Chuyi, who was far away in the Southern Palace, frowned. He almost lost his grip on the fishing rod. He asked in surprise, "What? They turned around and came back?"
