The Wonderful Way

Chapter 158
"What? You still want to keep hiding? Hehe... It's too cold to meet an old friend..."

Knowing that it would be futile to hide any longer, Chu Miao walked out from behind the tree holding Hanyue tightly, seemingly with all her momentum, but actually she was ready to strike.

"Little girl, if you don't kill me at this time, you are helping yourself. You don't want your cultivation to be sucked dry, do you?"

"Why should I trust you?" As for Liu Quan's imminent arrival, Chu Miao believed it. She was reluctant to fight because she was afraid that the fight would cause fluctuations, and because...

"How do you think I fell from the late stage of alchemy to the early stage of foundation establishment? Do you think I hide my cultivation to lie to you?"

Chu Miao released her subtle spiritual sense to probe carefully, and found that he was really not a disguise, and there were even faint signs of lowering his cultivation base.

Before they could say more in the future, the two of them looked terrified at the same time, and turned to look at the gate of Guanhaiju, both of them were shocked.

"Take me with you, thank you very much!"

Chu Miao didn't care at all, who would want to carry a burden when escaping, and this burden is still half an enemy.

Unexpectedly, just as she was about to leave, she saw a jade plaque on the waist of the other party, which made her froze on the spot.

After a few thoughts in my mind, I still pulled his belt in my hand, covered up the traces of his whereabouts, and fled through the small door at the back of the house.

Out of the alley, Chu Miao put down the people in her hands and walked side by side. There were so many monks hunting beasts in Linbian City, even if they were covered with injuries, they would not attract attention at all.

In the city, even the Nascent Soul cultivator did not dare to release his consciousness to investigate at will, so the more people there were, the safer the two of them would be.

Chu Miao didn't dare to rush out of the city, so she had to find a remote inn, enter the small courtyard and activate the formation, and then released the coercion all over her body, and rushed towards the limp person on the ground.

"Zhou Busi! Where did the jade badge on your waist come from?"

Ever since she saw this harmless face, Chu Miao had already felt murderous in her heart.

Zhou Busi sucked the blood of children all the year round, he is a scum in evil cultivators, what's more, he even kidnapped and killed Mu Xiaodie's younger brother.

If Liu Quan and a strange female cultivator hadn't arrived at the gate of Guanhaiju, she would have already killed him.

But when she saw the jade tablet, thinking that the owner of the jade tablet might be killed by him, Chu Miao gave up her intention to do it directly, she just wanted to send it to Liu Quan, and she was willing to see him being drained of blood essence before her own eyes!
"Cough cough cough... put away your coercion... cough cough... this is a gift from a friend!"

Chu Miao's spiritual sense controlled the rope of the jade tablet and pulled it into her hands.

The jade tablet was only half the size of a palm, white with gray in it, shaped like a phoenix tail, hanging on Zhou Busi's gray clothes, it looked very inconspicuous.

Chu Miao kept her composure, and lightly stroked the small word "Yan" engraved on the end of the jade tablet, and tightly covered the side of "Nanfeng Jiangshi" in her palm, calming down her fluctuating mood, before throwing the jade tablet to Zhou don't think:
"I made a mistake. Give it back to you."

Chu Miao didn't use much force, but Zhou Busi used his spiritual power to hold it carefully, and then coughed and wheezed, his pale face was even more pitiful.

"Next time we meet, I won't be merciful." Chu Miao gave him a complicated look, as if she was warning him, but also as if she was telling herself.

Zhou Busi held the jade tablet tightly, with blood gushing from his mouth, and a slight smile appeared on his feminine face, "Hehe...I owe you my life, little girl, goodbye."

Chu Miao stopped talking, restrained her breath and quickly left the inn, hiding her body all the way, and found another large inn to live in.

"What happened to you?"

Since entering the room, Chu Miao had been sitting in a daze, and after half a stick of incense, Fu Qing finally couldn't help breaking the calm.

"I feel a little sad when I think of some past events."

Fu Qing's black eyeballs rolled around, and she swam to Chu Miao's feet and said, "Is that the jade card you just looked at? Whose is it?"

"It's my cousin, the cousin of the Jiang family in the previous life." After saying this sentence, no matter how Fu Qing asked, Chu Miao refused to speak again.

……

In Guanhai Residence, No. [-] Courtyard, Liu Quan stood in the living room with a straight face. Although his cultivation had not changed, his face was no longer old, but returned to the appearance of a man in his forties.

Sitting at the main seat is a female cultivator of the late Yuanying period, dressed in white clothes better than snow, with exquisite eyebrows like a painting of a banished fairy. When she looked at Liu Quan, there was a trace of affection in her eyes, but when she looked closely, there seemed to be sarcasm in a flash.

"Yan Yufei, what a good apprentice you taught!" Liu Quan's tone was cold, "I'm a good blood guide, but she let her go under her nose!"

"Don't be angry, I didn't know that Yan'er would be so willful." Yan Yufei looked only in his twenties, and his soft and waxy speech was like acting like a baby, which made people lose their temper once they heard it.

"Since he was seriously injured, his essence, blood and spiritual power are not pure, so it is useless to bring him back now. Didn't you just recruit a new apprentice, just bring him back and raise him again."

"Are you crazy!" Liu Quan's face was cold, but he couldn't help slowing down his voice, "It's too late for me to hide from Tianjizong, you want me to go back?"

Yan Yufei's eyes were as gentle as water, and he persuaded softly: "You need a monk with excellent spiritual roots. If you don't go to the sect, where else can you look for it? The most dangerous place is safe. Who would have thought that you would go back?"

Liu Quan didn't speak anymore, his heart was ready to be moved by the words.

The secret method of crossing life can only be used by monks with excellent qualifications and in conjunction with the Nine Extreme Blood Sacrifice Formation.

In the past few months since leaving the sect, he has not even found a monk with three spiritual roots. He can only absorb the blood essence of ordinary monks to maintain his appearance.

After absorbing half of Zhou Busi's blood essence, he finally stabilized his face at the age of no doubts, and his cultivation base increased a little accordingly. Although his lifespan did not increase, he was overjoyed.

A monk with high spiritual root aptitude has pure spiritual energy and blood in his body, which is a fatal temptation for those who urgently need to increase their lifespan.

Zhou Busi is the dual spiritual root of water and wood. In order to repay Yan Yufei's favor, he took it under his family, raised it carefully and brought it to the world.
The blood guide can be advanced all the time, and the higher the cultivation level, the more times it can be absorbed.

Although Zhou Busi had absorbed the blood of ordinary children after he was seriously injured, the spiritual energy and essence blood was not as pure as before, but the effect was still much better than that of ordinary monks.

The steps of Yangxueyin are complicated and lengthy, and a lot of spiritual objects are needed, not to mention that Zhou Busi was cultivated by him at a big risk, so Liu Quan was so annoyed.

"Leaving nothing else aside, how will your apprentice deal with it? Could it be that he just let it go?"

Yan Yufei said angrily: "You are always fussing about with a child, and you have scared Yan'er away, and I don't know when you will dare to come back."

"Hmph! One of the younger generation of the Jiang family colluded with the demon cultivator, and the other became an evil cultivator. The family tradition is really worrying!"

"What are you talking about about the Jiang family? Yan'er had no choice but to follow me. Besides, this time, she probably didn't want to confuse her. Don't be too harsh on her."

Liu Quan disdains, "If you do it, you do it, what excuses are you looking for! If you don't discipline yourself well, don't blame me for helping you."

Yan Yufei lowered his eyes, making it impossible to see his true emotions. He could only hear a gentle and pleasant voice: "I see. Don't be angry. You'd better go to Tianjizong to find an introduction. Your lifespan must not be delayed."

Hearing about Shouyuan, Liu Quan put aside his anger, "That's fine, let's go back to the inland tomorrow morning."
