Chapter 124 Medicine King Valley (2)
Xie Jingxiu's face was a little pale, and he looked like he was lacking energy and blood, but he still maintained his demeanor and smiled gently.
"Junior Sister Mingshu, it's been a long time since we last met. I hope you are well."
When Tian Yiyi and Gu Qingzhou heard Xie Jingxiu and Cen Pianpian both calling her "Ming Shu", they looked at each other, a little confused.
Cen Pianpian stretched out her hand to hold Cheng Shuyan, but she dodged sideways. Cen Pianpian didn't care and continued to speak in an intimate tone:
"Senior Sister Mingshu, why don't you come with us later? Brother Jingxiu is very powerful. For Senior Sister Lingshu's sake, he will definitely protect you."
Hearing her say this, before Cheng Shuyan could even speak, Gu Qingzhou refused first, saying, "Our sister...will naturally come with us, so there's no need to trouble your brother Jingxiu."
"Sister Shu? Senior Sister Mingshu has such a close relationship with this fellow Daoist. Since he is your confidant, why don't you introduce him to us?"
Cen Pianpian opened her mouth slightly, looking at Xie Jingxiu in surprise, and then pretended to be angry.
Tian Yiyi was almost disgusted by her pretentious tone. She turned around and asked Cheng Shuyan with a puzzled look:
"Junior Sister Cheng, if I'm not mistaken, this Daoist Xie is the one who is engaged to Daoist Lingshu of the Cheng family, right? Then this..."
She glanced curiously at Cen Pianpian, who was clinging to Xie Jingxiu. "Could she be Fellow Daoist Xie's concubine? Fellow Daoist Xie, I have to say something to you. You haven't even gotten married yet, so it's not right to take in a concubine!"
"you!"
Cen Pianpian was so angry at the word "concubine" that she was fuming. Her face looked extremely ugly, but Xie Jingxiu stopped her from talking.
"Fellow Daoist, you have misunderstood. Pian Pian is my junior sister, and I naturally treat her like my own sister."
"Oh~" Tian Yiyi suddenly understood and said to Cen Pianpian earnestly: "I see, but sister, after all, we are not siblings. Brother Xie is engaged after all. Anyone who knows a little bit will know that we should avoid suspicion."
Then, without waiting for Cen Pianpian to continue pestering him, he turned to Cheng Shuyan and said, "Junior Sister Cheng, the formation has disbanded. Let's go."
At this moment, everyone else in the square was leaving one after another. Cheng Shuyan was too lazy to bother with the three of them, so he left the square with Tian Yiyi.
"Senior Brother Xie, she..." Cen Pianpian spoke to Xie Jingxiu with tears in her eyes and aggrieved voice.
Xie Jingxiu didn't wait for her to finish. He just glanced at the direction where the three people left with an expressionless face, opened his thin lips slightly, and interrupted Cen Pianpian's words.
"Let's go."
Afterwards, without caring about Cen Pianpian and Zhao Ziyi, he chose a direction and left.
Seeing this, Cen Pianpian could only glance resentfully in the direction where Cheng Shuyan left, and then hurriedly followed in the direction of Xie Jingxiu.
Zhao Ziyi followed behind her and laughed silently.
Cen Pianpian was usually protected too well, so he could only be a dog by her side.
But if she offended someone and died outside...
The top sects in the world of cultivating immortals all have their own secret realms. Important places within the sect are all located in the secret realms, and some sects even build their entire sect within the secret realms.
Yaowang Valley is the latter, so the secret realm that can accommodate the entire Yaowang Valley is naturally not small.
In Yaowang Valley, the sect buildings, alchemy rooms, treasure houses and other places have been searched countless times and there is no point in exploring them.
However, there are spiritual fields in the secret realm, where countless spiritual herbs grow, and there are certain restrictions on the monks' picking, so many valuable spiritual medicines are preserved.
Tian Yiyi had a partial map of the Medicine King Valley in her hand, so the three of them went straight to a spiritual field marked on the map.
However, when the three of them arrived, the originally designated spiritual field location was already in ruins, with only some low-level spiritual herbs remaining, and they were not old enough.
The three of them were a little disappointed and were about to move on to the next location when a male cultivator came out from the side and stopped them.
"Greetings, fellow Daoists. My name is Zhao Hui, and I would like to invite you three to form an alliance. What do you think?"
Gu Qingzhou stood in front of the two of them and said to Zhao Hui cautiously, "No need. We are strangers to each other, so there is no need to form an alliance."
Just as he was about to leave, Zhao Hui walked around to the three of them.
"Hey, wait a minute, everyone. You were able to get here so quickly, so you must have a map from the market, right?"
He smiled, as if he understood everything, and without waiting for the three to react, he continued:
"That map in the market has been sold for who knows how many years. The spiritual fields marked on the map have been searched countless times. It's likely that you'll have made a wasted trip if you go there.
I have a spiritual field in my possession that has never been discovered by anyone, but I am afraid that I cannot break the formation by myself, so I want to find three fellow Taoists to go with me."
"The three of us are not that strong, why did Brother Zhao choose to find us?" Cheng Shuyan couldn't help but ask him when he heard it.
"Firstly, as fellow Daoist said, the three of you are all in the early stages of foundation building, so I don't need to worry too much about you being abandoned after you've done your job.
Secondly, those sect disciples are all arrogant and disdain to associate with a casual cultivator like me. I see that some of you are not like those sect disciples, so I am willing to form an alliance with you.
If the three of you are willing, I will never let you suffer any loss. I will take 40% of the profits, and you three will take 60%. How do you think?"
After hearing what he said, Tian Yiyi vaguely felt that the map in her hand might really be useless as he said.
She had to look for another place anyway, and since this person invited her, she thought she could give it a try.
This man was only at the late stage of foundation building. With the abilities of the three of them, they were not afraid that he would do anything, so they were somewhat tempted by his proposal.
Gu Qingzhou had no objection. He was not good at dealing with people, so both of them looked at Cheng Shuyan, waiting for her decision.
Cheng Shuyan pondered for a moment, thinking that the three of them had no direction at the moment, so he agreed.
As for the share this person mentioned, if they could really find a spiritual field that had not been discovered by others, he provided the location, so it was reasonable for him to take more.
So she bowed to Zhao Hui and said, "Then I'll have to trouble Brother Zhao to lead the way."
"Hahaha, of course it's our duty!" The three of them agreed, and Zhao Hui couldn't help but laugh heartily.
He took out a compass and injected spiritual power into it, and a direction appeared on the compass.
Afterwards, he explained to Cheng Shuyan and the other two, "Fellow Daoists, this compass shows the location of the spiritual field.
The last time Medicine King Valley opened, my elders unexpectedly found it, but due to lack of time, they hurriedly left a tracking technique at the spiritual field, which is why I was able to find it."
What he said made sense, so they followed him to the place indicated by the compass without hesitation.
