Chapter 536 - Peach Blossom Tao Xian (25) (1/2)
Hua Jian made up an excuse, which Ming Shu clearly didn't believe. She guessed that this psychopath might also have a task similar to hers.
But several times recently, he just focused on killing her snacks coupon. The more she thought about it, the wronger it felt.
”Stay away from her,” Ming Shu threatened Hua Jian.
”Why!”
Didn't you beat her up yourself? Why can't I kill her?
The magistrates are free to burn down houses, but the common people are forbidden to light lamps?
I'm not buying this!
Ming Shu smiled meaningfully and said in a light voice, ”No reason.”
F**k, why do I listen to you, who do you think you are!
Wait!
Did I just say that aloud?
No… did I?
Hua Jian was a little unsure. If I didn't say it aloud, how could she know what I was thinking? Did I let it slip in my anger?
No… no, no, it shouldn't be like that.
I am a highly qualified agent, how will I make such a noob mistake.
Seeing Hua Jian begin to fall into his own thoughts, Ming Shu looked aside to check the place where Jian Ying fell. There was no one there, she probably left.
Ming Shu then stood up from the ground and walked over there. She took the knife out of the tree trunk.
Ming Shu saw this knife several times, but she hadn't touched it.
It felt a little cold, a little heavier than an ordinary knife, and was a little longer than an adult man's hand…
A hand then reached over from behind her and grasped the knife's blade.
Ming Shu subconsciously loosened her hand and the knife was easily taken back by Hua Jian. He put it behind his back.
Ming Shu chutted, then left toward Jingshan Mountain.
”Why did you gather so many demons?” Hua Jian put away his knife and caught up with Ming Shu.
”To inherit the throne, didn't I tell you? Was your brain eaten by dogs?” Ming Shu took out the small steamed buns she hadn't finished before and began to eat again. The milk scent floated out immediately, flying around the conversation. ”Come, eat some walnuts, it's good for your brain.”
Hua Jian: ”…” F**k, is she saying that my IQ is low? What's this stupid mission, I won't do it now!
Hua Jian walked faster and soon surpassed Ming Shu.
Ming Shu wasn't in a hurry though. She followed behind him slowly and saw Hua Jian seemed like he was rushing to a battlefield, feeling very pleased.
As they arrived at Jingshan Mountain, Ming Shu continued to go up but Hua Jian paused, looking back at her. ”Won't you go back with me?”
”No.”
Hua Jian was silent for a moment and didn't say anything, then turned to leave.
She would piss him off if she went back, so it was best to just let her run her own course.
Ming Shu stood at the mountain's foot and looked at him. After a long while, she suddenly flew over to stand in front of Hua Jian, revealing a big smile. ”Let me tell you a secret.”
”What is it?” Hua Jian became alert.
”You're as stupid as a pig.”
Hua Jian: ”…”
Where is my knife!
Don't stop me, I'll hack her to death today.
She's actually coming to curse me to my face, what's wrong with her brain!
Ming Shu smiled and flew back. Her soft hair passed by his face, leaving a faint refreshing peach blossom fragrance. Hua Jian lowered his head to look at the thing in his hand.
It was a transparent glass bottle.
There were some fine spots of light sticking on the inside, glittering constantly.
Is this… a phoenix-spirit butterfly?
Hua Jian looked back at Jingshan Mountain. In the swaying bamboo forest, her figure had disappeared.
...
Finally Jian Ying was also found. After everyone had retreated, Ming Shu made the demons dig up the demon core in the forest.
Many hands provided great strength, and they could also sense the demon core's position from time to time, so it was no hassle for them to dig out the demon core.
Ming Shu held the demon core presented by the little demons in her hand. It was the size of a thumb, as red as blood cinnabar, revealing a great power.
