Chapter 37：Helping (2/2)

Meng Yun softly whispered into Luo Mei's ear as she said, ” Senior sister, do you think he knows what we want him to do? He seems to be showing off by randomly picking up ingredients. I think he is a fraud.”

Luo Mei frowned when she heard this. ”That is a definite possibility, but it doesn't look like he is faking it. Some of the ingredients he picked were ones even I recognized. He must be a genuine alchemist who recognizes the ingredients. I hope he recognizes that one too.”

Luo Mei continued to walk deeper and deeper into the forest. Alex started to get worried. They were now constantly meeting monsters that would definitely be able to kill him easily.

But to a Mind Tempering realm cultivator like her, these monsters were a piece of cake. She killed every single monster they came across and took all the drops from the monster.

Alex didn't mind her behavior as he was already getting enough benefits from the ingredients here.

After a short while, she had managed to kill over a few dozen of bone tempering realm monsters. This was an amount that Alex couldn't even hope to have achieved in all the 3 days he had taken a leave from the sect.

And this girl had somehow managed to kill them in less than 2 hours.

”We're here,” Luo Mei said as she increased her walking speed a little faster. ”It's right around here, somewhere.”

Finally, she stopped as she saw a small opening in the forest where there were no trees and only bushes. In front of the bushes was an Ox-like monster currently sleeping.

[Meridian Tempering 3rd Realm]

This was a monster that Alex didn't doubt could kill him in a single blow. He was really scared now. He looked at Meng Yun, and she was shivering a little as well.

Luo Mei however showed no fear, only some irritation at the fact that she had to fight when her goal was so close.

She kept her sword in its scabbard on her waist and started moving her arms in a certain manner. Alex looked at her arms and saw Qi slowly seep out of her palms.

The moment the Qi left her body, however, something weird happened. All of the Qi started to change as they slowly transformed into water.

Alex had unconsciously started focus mode due to his fright, which was why the transformation looked so slow to him. In fact, the transformation happened in a split second.

A massive ball of water appeared in front of Luo Mei which she sent towards the Ox. Within seconds, the Ox opened his eyes and frantically tried to move. But it couldn't.

Luo Mei had already encased the Ox in the water ball and was slowly drowning it to death in midair. The ball started to move higher and higher as the Ox tried to breathe more and more and failed. Minutes passed by and the Ox finally stopped breathing.

It was dead.

Luo Mei then let go of the water ball, and the entire thing, water, and Ox fell to the ground with a loud bang. She then turned to Alex and said, ”This is where I need your help, Daoist Yu.”
