Kuaiwen: I earn a pension by breaking through the game

Chapter 42: The resistance of the sect’s power bank (42)

Although the matter of the strange formation cannot be solved for a while, an arrangement can be regarded as being made.

With Li Yang continuing to investigate in the Burning Flame Valley, the efficiency is always better than Jiang Qiucheng messing around alone.

"I can rest assured that you will do this, but this matter is not that simple. There are still many crises hidden behind it."

"You should also be more careful during the investigation process, and retreat in time when something goes wrong."

"I know that your cultivation level is high, and ordinary people can't do anything to you, but you are fighting alone, and the other party doesn't know how many helpers they have overtly or covertly, so it's better to be cautious."

Li Yang nodded slightly and agreed.

Jiang Qiucheng's immediate priority is to return to the outside world, expand his fire spirit roots as soon as possible, blend his spiritual power, improve his cultivation, and strive to give Lin Shaoguang and Lin Ruxuan an unexpected surprise at the sect conference.

"Ahem - I can't stay here any longer."

"The longer you stay here, the greater the hidden dangers, not to mention the possibility of involving you."

"Is there any way you can send me out?"

Jiang Qiucheng struggled to sit up and said after regaining his breath.

After seeing that she had indeed recovered a lot and was able to move freely, Li Yang lowered his eyes and replied thoughtfully.

"There is a way! I know a way out that can avoid everyone's scrutiny."

"It's just not now. I'm afraid you have to wait."

"Although Fusu Dan is very effective, the injuries you suffered in your body still need to be recuperated for a while in order to be better consolidated."

"Don't think too much first, then lie down and take a breath. When it gets late, I will take you out."

After getting Li Yang's promise, Jiang Qiucheng was happy, nodded gratefully, and lay back obediently.

Not long after he lay down, sleepiness hit him again. Jiang Qiucheng tilted his head and fell asleep without even having time to explain.

Li Yang couldn't help but laugh, shook his head helplessly, and went to do his own business.

He is used to living in isolation, and no one dares to provoke him on weekdays.

They spent the whole day peacefully like this, until night fell again, and then he stepped forward and shook Jiang Qiucheng awake.

"Hey! Don't sleep! Wake up!"

"Good guy, you've been sleeping all day. I'm afraid of disturbing you, so I don't dare to stay in the house for a long time. I only dare to jump outside."

"Hey, I went to the canteen to pack you a meal. You must be hungry after sleeping all day. Get up and eat some."

"These big chicken drumsticks look delicious. It's a pity that each person can only receive one. If you come to Fenyan Valley, you are considered a guest. I will let you eat this chicken drumstick. Don't be polite to me."

"Oh, there is also this millet porridge. I specially asked my aunt who was cooking to fish it out from the bottom. There are still a few red dates."

……

Jiang Qiucheng had just regained consciousness when he heard a chirping sound coming from his ears.

Li Yang's eyes were bright, blowing the hot steam on the millet porridge while stuffing the chicken legs into her hand.

Faced with such enthusiasm, Jiang Qiucheng didn't even have time to refuse.

By the time he reacted, the chicken leg was already in his mouth.

"Thank you...￥*@(&) Thank you." Jiang Qiucheng thanked him while chewing the chicken drumstick.

It was obviously just an ordinary chicken drumstick, but it made her eyes sore and made her want to cry.

She didn't know how long it had been, but this was the first time she felt the warmth from another person.

It feels so good to be remembered.

"Thank you! I don't have anything else good to offer you, so I can only make do with it first."

"I'm not afraid of your jokes. My pocket is cleaner than my face. I'm a pauper. I usually work in a dining hall. I don't even have a small treasury to open a small stove." "Earlier, those disciples would use things as bets to win. I competed, but as time went by, they realized they couldn’t beat me, so they stopped coming, and my extra income suddenly dropped a lot.”

"But don't be afraid. When I go down the mountain for training in a while, I can make some extra money by catching monsters. Then I'll treat you to something good."

"Hey, it's fun outside, you know, right? There's a lot of food and drink, not to mention how interesting it is, it's more interesting than in this sect anyway."

……

Once Li Yang started talking, it was difficult to stop the car, but Jiang Qiucheng did not interrupt him. He only listened attentively while drinking sweet millet porridge, and occasionally responded with a few words.

"Then we have agreed that when we go down the mountain for training in the future, we will see a lot of scenery and eat a lot of food together!"

"Maybe we can meet a group of like-minded friends outside, and then we can all travel together, which will be so cool!"

At the end of the conversation, Li Yang's eyes were full of yearning for the outside world.

Facing Li Yang's invitation, just when Jiang Qiucheng was about to agree, he thought of the bond he had yet to release.

After a moment of silence, she said softly.

"There will come a day when we will make an agreement."

Li Yang didn't notice the flash of disappointment in Jiang Qiucheng's tone, so he excitedly grabbed her hand and gave her a high-five.

"A word is settled!"

After looking at each other and smiling, Jiang Qiucheng drank the millet porridge in the bowl in two gulps, wiped his mouth and said vaguely.

"I'm done eating, please take me away."

Li Yang simply put away the dishes and chopsticks, and after making sure no one was moving around, he turned his head and motioned for Jiang Qiucheng to follow.

Looking at Li Yang's unreserved back, Jiang Qiucheng quickly stood up and followed without any doubt.

The two of them walked in tandem, jumping nimbly through the building.

Li Yang knew the terrain in the Burning Flame Valley very well, and easily avoided all the patrolling teams, heading towards the destination safely and smoothly.

As the surrounding scenery changed, Jiang Qiucheng suddenly felt a familiar feeling.

She thought she had seen it wrong, but as the destination got closer, her doubts began to grow.

Finally, she stopped and called to Li Yang who was leading the way.

"Li Yang!"

"Why are we back at the top of the Blazing Flame?"

Jiang Qiucheng looked puzzled, not knowing how to leave the Burning Flame Valley through here.

The area around the top of Blazing Flame is desolate. There are only a few decent roads, and they are overgrown with weeds.

Li Yang did not explain immediately, but only took a few steps forward, pulled up Jiang Qiucheng's sleeves, and motioned for her to continue walking down.

"Eh--"

Jiang Qiucheng couldn't defeat him, so he had to go forward to see what was going on.

The two of them walked forward for a while and reached the same place as yesterday. Looking at the rolling magma in front of them, a terrifying thought came to Jiang Qiucheng's mind.

"You don't mean...you want me to jump out of here with you, do you?"

Jiang Qiucheng turned around in disbelief and looked at the other party in confusion.

Li Yang snapped his fingers and said affirmatively.

"That's right! This is the secret passage I mentioned!"
