Bai Xiang's eyes were as sharp as a knife, which gave Ling Xiao the illusion that he was being peeled off from skin to bones. He felt cold all over and hurriedly saluted, "Thank you, Senior Bai, for saving your life!"
The fierceness in Bai Xiang's eyes faded away and he asked, "What's your name?"
Ling Xiao was in a state of confusion, so he could only say truthfully: "Junior Ling Xiao."
Bai Xiang nodded and said: "It's quite capable to survive a few rounds in Gongsun Lie's hands! Are you willing to join the Red Sect?"
Ling Xiao's back was dripping with cold sweat. After hesitating for a moment, he finally gritted his teeth and said, "Thank you for your kindness, senior, but I'm used to being idle..."
Before he finished speaking, Bai Xiang waved his hand impatiently and said: "If you don't want to, just don't want to, there are so many excuses!"
After saying that, the white elephant had no intention of talking anymore and turned into a ball of shooting stars, disappearing in an instant.
After this person left, Ling Xiao seemed to have finally come to his senses. He sat down weakly against the tree trunk and panted violently.
The wind blew, giving him a chill, and he was surprised to find that his clothes were soaked with sweat.
In the past, he was secretly surprised as to why he could never see the foundation-building monks. Unexpectedly, he was so happy to see two of them tonight!
[He was so scared that he peed! 】
【is not that right? The pressure of the foundation-building monks is too powerful! 】
[However, this boy dares to refuse the invitation of the foundation-building monk. He is very courageous! 】
Listening to the conversation among the trees, Ling Xiao secretly smiled bitterly.
When it comes to other things, he wouldn't dare to refuse if they were given the courage!
The reason why he was so brave just now was entirely because he signed a contract with Mr. Kui. The people of the Red Sect must not attack him, otherwise the backlash of the soul power is no joke.
Thinking with lingering fear, Ling Xiao did not dare to stay any longer. Taking advantage of the wind control talisman still having power, he hurriedly ran out of the forest, found a direction, and ran away.
There is no need to go back to the carriage.
When the driver knew that Gongsun Lie was coming, he must have fled quickly. How could he just wait there to die?
Fortunately, this entrance was not far from Linfeng City. After a while, Ling Xiao returned to the city gate and breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, only Linfeng City could give him some sense of security.
At the gate of the city, I unexpectedly bumped into an old acquaintance - Mr. Hong.
"Brother Ling, why are you so panicked?"
Ling Xiao smiled bitterly and briefly told what happened at the entrance of the Moqu Mountains, but did not go into details about his employment by the black market.
When Hong Patou heard Gongsun Lie's appearance, he was also shocked, and then he looked astonished, "No wonder..."
"What's the wonder?" Ling Xiao asked subconsciously.
"Brother, you don't know. There was a big case at the foot of Huangsong Mountain. Dozens of people died! Brother, I have to go over and help." Hong Captou sighed.
Ling Xiao's heart twitched, "Butcher on a rainy night?"
Hong Baotou nodded slightly, "Who else could be there besides this demon? Originally, Gongsun Lie founded a sect here just to hunt down this demon, but who knew... I won't talk anymore, let's leave first!"
All the arresters left in a hurry.
Ling Xiao looked at their backs and returned to the manor in silence.
The butcher openly killed people at the foot of Huangsong Mountain on a rainy night, presumably as a provocation to Gongsun Lie.
The next period of time for Songshan Sword Sect may not be easy.
Although Ling Xiao didn't have the slightest fondness for Songshan Sword Sect, he still hoped that Gongsun Lie and the others could catch Yuye Butcher as soon as possible.
This perverted murderer really deserves to go to hell!
As soon as he got home, Ling Xiao changed his clothes, which naturally aroused Lingcao's ridicule.
[You didn’t wet your pants, did you? 】
[What did he go to do? Stealing someone's wife? 】
The flowers and plants were chattering, and they began to talk in detail about the process of stealing people, but Ling Xiao didn't even have the energy to get angry.
Today, both monks and ordinary people are in danger...
He suddenly felt that his arms were burning, and he quickly took out the contract jade slip. After thinking for a moment, he poured some magic power into it.
Snapped!
The jade slip was shattered, the contract was ended, and the power of the soul was returned.
Ling Xiao looked at the remnants of the jade slip, smiled bitterly, and then fell into a deep sleep.
Too tired tonight.
Even in his dream, Ling Xiao dreamed that Gongsun Lie was chasing after him, shouting that he wanted to cut off his legs. When he woke up, it was already dawn.
[I am now sure that he really went to steal someone, otherwise why would he be so tired? 】
【Rubbish! If it were me, I would make ten of them! 】
Hearing the familiar chirping sound, Ling Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and got up to start a new day.
He did not go to Qingfeng Temple as usual, but stayed at home and silently drew talismans.
Now, his success rate in drawing intermediate talismans has reached about 45%, which is terrifying.
So he just drew the talismans for a day, and then went out to the Lion Trading Company to sell them on consignment.
Making money is the first priority.
The money owed to Mr. Kui must be repaid first, otherwise he will feel uneasy!
As for the rest, it doesn’t hurt to put it aside for a few days.
…
Time flies by like a flash. In the blink of an eye, more than twenty days have passed.
[The little brother is indeed a person who keeps his promise and returned the money so quickly. 】
In Tingyuxuan, Mr. Kui inspected the spirit stones with a smile, then took out a second-level spirit stone and handed it to Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao raised an eyebrow, "What does this mean?"
Mr. Kui smiled and said, "I accidentally leaked the news during that day's operation. This can be regarded as compensation from the black market!"
Ling Xiao looked at the spirit stone, but didn't take it. He just shook his head and said, "No need. Thanks to Senior Bai Xiang for saving my life, the Red Clothes Sect will just keep the money!"
Whatever he meant, he would not accept any more money from the Red Sect.
Nothing good will happen if you accept it!
Elder Kui seemed to have guessed his intentions and did not force himself. He smiled and said, "I heard that Senior Bai invited you to join our sect, but you refused. Are you really so resistant to our sect?"
Ling Xiao didn't know how to answer, so he could only remain silent.
Mr. Kui shook his head and said, "I hope that one day, this sect can untie your knot. After all, talents like Ling Shaoxia have always been the most valued by this sect."
Ling Xiao said lightly: "Maybe. Will the black market be open tonight?"
"Old time, same place. Speaking of Master Tiger, it should be almost finished, right?"
That night.
Ling Xiao once again boarded the carriage heading to the black market.
The Red-coat Sect doesn't want him to join, but the Black Market is still happy to go.
After all, he rediscovered the joy of panning for gold there.
Recently, in order to collect enough money to repay the loan as soon as possible, he not only sold nearly a thousand kilograms of spiritual rice, but also sold many medicinal materials in the medicine garden, including the two cold spring flowers.
This also caused the originally lively home to become quite deserted.
After cultivating the spiritual grass and spiritual trees for so long, Ling Xiao gradually discovered that these guys were similar to people and had lonely emotions, and this emotion could affect the growth of vegetation to some extent.
Therefore, he had only one purpose in going to the black market tonight.
That’s Tao!
Scoop hard!
Be sure to get the buzz back in your home.
With this thought in mind, Ling Xiao got off the carriage and went straight to the stalls on both sides of the street.
