C65 (1/2)
”Hmm? What was going on? The demonic beast tide has actually retreated? ” Tie Lang could not help but feel greatly surprised.
”Iron Wolf? This... What exactly happened here? ” Shangguan Xiaoyue shouted.
Because she had consumed a pill to recover her strength, she had recovered about seventy to eighty percent. When she opened her eyes, she saw Tie Lang standing several meters away in a daze.
”The demonic beasts have retreated? ”What's going on?” When the other two heard Shangguan Xiaoyue's shout, they also opened their eyes and looked at the scene in front of them in shock.
”Oh? He … He actually obtained the Light Jade Key? ” The handsome Biyun Sect disciple suddenly saw the golden dot of light on top of Tie Lang's head and involuntarily cried out in alarm.
”As expected! It seemed that Tie Lang's luck was pretty good. What? There are two people from Nine Dragons Sect here, do you want to forcibly take them away? Moreover, it was Tie Lang who saved you just now! ” Shangguan Xiaoyue's expression changed as she spoke in a deep tone.
Tie Lang hurried like he was flying. Just as he got close, he heard Shangguan Xiaoyue's words and his face changed slightly.
”Forced? How is this possible? Even though experiential learning from explorations can compete to the death, one still has to be principled, and one's grudges have to be distinct! If it wasn't for Tie Lang, I, Da Xuan, would have already died here. ”In addition, senior brother Haotian has a very good relationship with me. I know that he is very dissatisfied with brother Ironwolf. Later, we can discuss this with senior brother Haotian …”
”Humph!” And, the Black Wood Sect has also calculated a disciple with conscience! ” Shangguan Xiaoyue snorted and said.
”I will have to trouble Tie Lang to save me this time. I will not say thanks for this great favor!” If there's anything I need help with, I can come to the Biyun Sect to find me anytime. I will do my best to help. Also, now that you have the key, you will naturally become the target of other people, so you need to be careful along the way. It would be best to choose a concealed place to sneak out of the secret realm's canyon! ”Perhaps having someone to help you is the best …” Finished speaking, Yun Lingzi's gaze drifted towards Shangguan Xiaoyue, the meaning in his words obvious.
”This is our Nine Dragons Sect's own matter, there is no need for you two to worry. Tie Lang is representing our Nine Dragons Sect, I will naturally always be by his side! If there's nothing else, let's part ways here! It's best if we don't meet again on the road! ” Shangguan Xiaoyue replied coldly.
”Hmm, with Miss Shangguan's protection, it should be much safer! ”Since that's the case, we will take our leave first and see if we have the luck to obtain a light jade key elsewhere!”
The two youngsters didn't waste any time on words. They got up and flew forward.
”You … ”Why aren't you leaving?”
”Why? I said I would protect you! From now on, I will protect you! ”
”Ugh …” ”No, I really don't need it. I can do it myself.”
”Hee hee …” If you had said that earlier, I would not have followed you. But now, he couldn't! There are two reasons: Firstly, you saved my life, I, Shangguan Xiaoyue, have always been one to repay favors, and I have paid you back by following by your side to protect you; secondly, you came here on behalf of the Nine Dragons Sect to gain experience, every single light jade key is extremely precious, as long as one person obtains it, they have to use everyone's power to protect me! This was for the benefit of the sect. Hence, whether it is in public or in private, I will stay by your side until you safely enter the Secret Realm! ”
”This …” Tie Lang was left speechless for a moment …
After this incident, Shangguan Xiaoyue's heart was moved. Her attitude towards Tie Lang suddenly changed, and she started to act like a big sister, insisting to travel with him!
Tie Lang was speechless and could not refute his words. In desperation, Tie Lang could only agree.
When Tie Lang told Shangguan Xiaoyue that he was going to chase after the locust swarm, he had indeed shocked her. However, Iron Wolf did not object as he recalled his performance at the locust attack. She hid behind a huge rock and changed into a clean set of clothes. Then, together with the Iron Wolf, they madly chased after the retreating fiendish locusts.
Tie Lang's speed was astonishing, and Shangguan Xiaoyue was not slow either. In less than a quarter of an hour, the two of them had already caught up to the horde of demon fire locusts. The red bead in Tie Lang's hand once again released a strange purple light, continuously absorbing the Demon Fire locusts into it.
As the number of flames engulfed it increased, the bead also became hotter and hotter. In the end, Iron Wolf began to feel the ball burning hot in his hand.
”This bead …” Shangguan Xiaoyue was surprised, she had not expected the pearl in Tie Lang's hand to be so powerful. Swallowing his saliva, he asked, ”Was it not because of the pearl in your hand that caused the demon fire locust to retreat?”
”Hehe …” I don't know about that either. Maybe! ”
”What pearl is this? Where did you get it?” Can you give it to me? The conditions are up to you! ”
”Give it to you?” Tie Lang could not help but have a serious face as he said, ”Don't make such a joke. This was created by a bird that was always by my side.” I've always thought of him as my best brother! His name is Little Can!
