C22 (2/2)
The Sect Leader and the few Sect Elders didn't appear, so we were whispering amongst ourselves below. Qiu Hong just happened to be standing in front of me, so I opened my mouth to ask, ”When is the battle going to start?”
Qiu Hong turned his head and smiled. ”I don't know either, but it looks like it will be soon.”
I nodded. ”Who are those arrogant people in front of me?”
Qiu Hong gave me a profound look and said, ”Those are the thirteen elites of the Sky Sect. As you can see, senior brother Qiu Xuan is also one of them. He is now ranked number two.”
”Because there are three people. Although their strength is not in the top ten, they are still extremely astonishing. The Sect Leader appreciates them and gives them the same treatment as the top ten. These are the thirteen elites.”
To be able to receive the appreciation of the Sect Leader, my battle power must be extraordinary. I wonder how far I am from them.
After chatting for a bit more, the Sect Leader and several Sect Elders arrived. The Sect Leader didn't seem to be worried at all, as if he was very confident. He casually brought up a few reasons, then told us to prepare ourselves and come out of the sect three days later to fight with the Baiyu Sect.
Perhaps it is because of our victory this time, the Sect Leader generously gave each of us an Opening Spirit Pill. Of course, it is only an ordinary Opening Spirit Pill. I looked at the Enlightenment Pill in my hand as some thoughts surfaced in my mind.
After returning to my lodgings on the mountain peak, I immediately focused on meditating. I wasn't cultivating, but was thinking about something else.
According to Qiu Xuan, on the surface, the Baiyu Sect had the same level of strength as the Sky Sect. Naturally, other than concealing their strength, the disparity shouldn't be too great. And this time, Qiu Xi even sent me to the battlefield. Isn't he afraid that I will die on the battlefield because of a mistake? Unless someone is protecting me from the shadows among the thirteen geniuses. However, a person is not as good as the heavens. If there really is an accident, how can he replace me?
I couldn't guess what he was thinking, but I was prepared for the worst. I plan to go out for a while. I have to temporarily ignore the rule that I can't go down the mountain. Since Qiu Xi is using me as his physical body, then he must have his eyes on me.
Before I went down the mountain, I looked for Qiu Xuan. This was the first time I took the initiative to look for him. Qiu Xuan's residence is similar to mine, and is also a thatched cottage. I don't know why, but I don't know if it is because I'm looking down on luxury or because I intentionally pretended to be elegant and noble. Qiu Xuan was very surprised that I had come. I was a little embarrassed, but I pretended to be calm.
”I need some medicinal pills to replenish my spiritual power, as well as your Spirit Opening Pills!”
Qiu Xuan glanced at me indifferently. ”Why should I give it to you?”
The Spiritfount Pill is useless to you. In this war, you have more than enough power to protect yourself. I took a deep breath and glanced at him. ”You and I are the same people!”
Qiu Xuan's eyes were drooping. I didn't know what he was thinking, but I could tell that he was pondering. After a while, Qiu Xuan gave me a meaningful look, tossed me a bag, and entered the house.
”Thirteen, there's a problem!”
Stunned, I took the bag, didn't count it, put it in my pocket, turned around and left.
”I owe you one!” With that, I floated down the peak. Arriving at A'Hu's residence, I lightly knocked on the door but didn't reply. I laughed. Those outer sect disciples still need to go to the training field to train.
Pushing the door open, I sat on my old bed. The bed was very clean, and I could see that Tiger had been tidying it up. He probably hoped that one day I could come back and stay here again.
After four hours, Ah Hu finally returned. Seeing me sitting on the bed, he rubbed his eyes and gave a loud cry as he hugged me.
I pushed him away and smiled. ”It's been a long time, but it's still so exaggerated.”
Ah Hu had grown taller and stronger as well. At this moment, using the word 'tall' to describe him was not excessive at all. I stood up, and he was a head taller than me.
”Fugui, I thought you weren't going to come back.” Ah Hu was a little excited. ”Tonight, we will get drunk again!”
I shook my head. ”Do you know about the battle against the White Jade Sect three days later?”
”Of course I know. Half of our outer sect disciples are also participating, but because of your relationship, Master Hu Shan did not send me up to die.”
I nodded. ”That's good!”
”Don't talk so much, let's go get drunk!” Ah Hu clapped his hands and was about to invite me to the cave.
I closed the door and focused my attention to listen to my surroundings. I pressed on A'Hu's shoulder. ”Ah Hu, listen to me!”
Tiger stopped playing when he saw I was serious and sat on the edge of the bed, waiting for me to speak.
”You are my only friend, and I am going to the battlefield in three days. Perhaps it is just an illusion, but I feel that there is something wrong with this matter. If anything happens to me, I hope you can help me achieve my goal! ”
”What happened? Why do you say that! ” Ah Hu was a little nervous as he stared at me.
”I don't know. I was just guessing that maybe I was overthinking things. There are some things I want to give you. Remember, if something really happens to me, you can help me out. If you can't, then leave this place. ”
I took out the Enlightenment Pill from my bag, along with the pill I got, a total of two, and gave them to Ah Hu.
”This is an Opening Spirit Pill. Use it when you are absolutely safe. Remember, don't let anyone else know.” Also, this is the Sky Sect's cultivation technique, practice it well. ”
I didn't dare to stay any longer. Afraid that someone would be watching me, I told Ah Hu in an extremely soft voice. After nodding my head, I turned around and left.
A'Hu is my friend, if I'm not here, he will be my last hope. Even though his talent is not good, after seeing his hard work, I know that he is not a mediocre person.
Thirteen, there's a problem!
When I said that Qiu Xuan was the same person as me, he didn't refute me and instead reminded me. It seems like his goal is basically the same as mine, but is Qiu Xuan's sudden words to remind me of something …
