Chapter 548: Chapter 540 Thousand Beast Pavilion
Because many true strong fighters, like Qin Niu, do not rush to take on the trial in the first few days.
The majority of formidable fighters prefer to make an appearance at the end.
By observing others, they can gain more practical experience and learn from the failures of others.
Qin Niu felt the timing was about right and prepared to take on the trial in the next two days.
In these past few days, staying in his guest room to solidify his Immortal Scholar Realm, he was also paying attention to see if anyone was inquiring about him and Xiao Qing. According to the feedback from the insects he secretly deployed, a total of four groups of people were inquiring about him and Xiao Qing.
These people included the landlord and the landlord’s eldest daughter-in-law.
The Myriad Beast Immortal Sect had annihilated the Yao Family, directly capturing several of the Yao Family’s Pill Masters. Maybe things weren’t as simple as they seemed.
If Immortal Monarch Yu Yuan genuinely only wanted the Yao Family to help him refine a ninth-grade Immortal Pill, simply capturing the formidable Pill Masters of the Yao Family would have been enough. There was no need to exterminate the Yao Family completely.
Xiao Qing’s father had been on the run for several years, and as a concealed bloodline left by the Yao Family, he was still tracked down and pursued by the people of Immortal Monarch Yu Yuan, facing assassination. Treating the remaining bloodline of the Yao Family with such great effort certainly wasn’t just to prevent the Yao Family from seeking vengeance.
This time, Qin Niu and Xiao Qing caused some commotion by taking on the first floor of Medicine King Tower and it was quite normal for them to attract attention.
But for four groups of people to inquire about them, even going so far as to bribe the landlord and his eldest daughter-in-law, was really against common logic.
“Wan Yan, Xiao Qing, let’s go to the Water and Land Dharma Assembly today. As long as the conditions allow, both of you can try to overcome the Immortal Gate. Whether or not you make it through, you can at least gather some valuable experience,”
he said to the two women.
“I’ve been ready for a long time,”
said Xiao Qing, who now knew her heritage. All she was thinking about was finding out her parents’ whereabouts and rescuing the imprisoned clan members.
To do such a thing, she would need to grow stronger.
With her current strength, it was frankly not enough.
“I heard that many experts in the later stages of the Spirit Qi Realm couldn’t get through the First Immortal Gate. Is my cultivation at the Innate Realm sufficient?”
Indeed, her cultivation was not high.
She had just managed to break through to the Innate Realm.
Whether one can pass the First Immortal Gate isn’t solely determined by the level of cultivation. On the first day, Brother Chi witnessed an Innate Realm Expert successfully pass through the First Immortal Gate,”
Qin Niu could only try to find ways to encourage her.
If one did not have confidence in oneself, even going there would mostly just be for show.
At this moment, the Green Silk Worm that Qin Niu had quietly placed on the landlord’s eldest daughter-in-law transmitted some useful sounds.
“Stay in the room, I’ll be back as soon as possible!”
Qin Niu opened the window and, like a nimble cat, vanished in a flash.
He quietly arrived at the landlord’s backyard, looked down from the rooftop, and saw a shifty middle-aged man speaking with the landlord’s eldest daughter-in-law.
“Are you sure that person surnamed Qin and the little girl have not left the room at all?”
“I can confirm it. Every day, I look for excuses to deliver tea for them, and I see everything clearly. The little girl is that Master Qin’s maid, and she has been lying on the bed since returning. She was unconscious for the first two days and only woke up today.
It seems that Master Qin was injured as well, as he’s been seen sitting cross-legged on the bed tending to his injuries every day,”
she told the man.
No wonder she kept finding excuses to enter Qin Niu’s room so often; she was acting as a spy.
A murderous intent flashed in Qin Niu’s eyes.
When it came to potential threats, he always preferred to nip them in the bud.
“Hmm, job well done. Here’s One Tael of Silver for you. Continue to keep an eye on those few, especially that young man surnamed Qin and the little girl. If they do anything unusual or have any important conversations, you can tell me in time. There will be a substantial reward for you.”
The middle-aged man tossed One Tael of Silver, making the landlord’s eldest daughter-in-law grin from ear to ear.
“Rest assured, I’ll do this well. Even if that man surnamed Qin whispers sweet nothings to his wife in the middle of the night, I’ll remember it all and report it to you without missing a word,”
she declared, thrilled with her reward and repeatedly expressing her loyalty to the middle-aged man.
“Get lost, get lost. Who wants to hear their nighttime sweet talk? You just need to pay attention to the important matters they discuss,”
