Chapter 302: Cannot See What is Happening
“Senior Brother, let’s just forget it!”
The female cultivator in the team of three at the Mid Foundation Establishment Stage gritted her teeth and shouted at her Senior Brother.
“Forget it? That’s something we discovered! Sky Sound Grass, a Tier 3 Sky Sound Grass with Dragon Breath Spirit!”
Her Senior Brother’s eyes turned red.
The other male cultivator was in the same situation.
Neither of them wanted to give up.
“But that cultivator at the Late Foundation Establishment Stage is too strange, and that female cultivator who can use Step by Step Lotus Kill is definitely from a Major Sect,” the female cultivator hesitated. “Shouldn’t we go back to Xuanwu City to report this? If we don’t report the appearance of Evil Spirit Technique here, we might be in a lot of trouble. Besides, there was an incident of Demonic Cultivators attacking a mine not long ago!”
The three of them just needed to focus on running.
Given that Min Liyang’s attention was entirely on Song Jiulai, they could escape.
The temptation of Sky Sound Grass was great enough, but they also had to consider if they had enough life to obtain it.
The few of them looked at the frenzied Min Liyang. Their Spiritual Energy was almost depleted, and even if they had Pills in their backpacks, how many times could a Tier 3 Pill replenish them?
The more expensive the Pill, the less they could afford it.
Hesitating, they noticed Min Liyang showing signs of going berserk again. The three of them gritted their teeth: “Forget it!”
They could only go back to Xuanwu City to report.
After Song Jiulai confirmed that the three had left, she glanced at the frenzied Min Liyang and directly took out the Prosperous Like a Painting Building.
The moment the Magic Treasure enveloped him, Song Jiulai didn’t want to waste any extra effort.
Although she was currently wanted, after using the Prosperous Like a Painting Building, even if other cultivators saw it, it would only be a matter of changing her face.
The reason she waited for those three people to leave before making a move was that four people would likely be difficult to deal with.
Min Liyang didn’t expect Song Jiulai to be so decisive, and that the Prosperous Like a Painting Building was so strange.
By the time he reacted, although he wanted to resist, Song Jiulai gave him no chance.
She used the Moonlight Long Sword to interrupt his actions and forcibly enveloped Min Liyang.
After completing all this, Song Jiulai let out a light breath and took out a Tier 4 Qi Replenishing Pill to recover.
Incredible progress!
Her Spiritual Energy pool, which had expanded several times at the Mid Foundation Establishment Stage, was not trained in vain; she only needed to take medicine after fighting for so long.
If it were in the past, she would have had to take so much medicine.
Once inside the Prosperous Like a Painting Building, even with Min Liyang’s Evil Spirit Technique, he was no match for the Black Chi Seal and the Moonlight Long Sword.
With both working together, the already irrational Min Liyang was directly killed by Song Jiulai.
He was still in disbelief as he died.
He never expected that Song Jiulai, who had only managed to fight him to a draw moments ago, had suddenly gained a cheat.
Currently, there were four corpses in the Prosperous Like a Painting Building. With Song Jiulai’s current Cultivation, she couldn’t completely burn these corpses without leaving any trace.
She planned to find a very distant Place to scatter the ashes of these people.
By then, even if something was investigated, no one would know.
Emerging from the Prosperous Like a Painting Building, Song Jiulai looked at the Sky Sound Grass on the canyon cliff.
The Demonic Beast guarding the Sky Sound Grass had likely already been dealt with. Song Jiulai asked the System for help, bypassed the monitoring of the Guanhai Sect Mark, and successfully pocketed this Tier 3 Sky Sound Grass with Dragon Breath Spirit.
“Sen… Senior…”
A timid voice came from the side.
It was the cultivator at the Late Qi Condensation Stage who had been hiding from the beginning.
She wore a simple white dress, had an ordinary face, and a somewhat pitiable demeanor.
System: “What are you going to do now?”
Song Jiulai walked over. Before she could speak, the female cultivator was so scared that she knelt down.
“Senior, I was passing by this Place and accidentally discovered this Sky Sound Grass. They captured me and originally intended to use me as bait to lure the Demonic Beasts near the Sky Sound Grass, but who knew that demon cultivator would appear…”
Song Jiulai inwardly tutted, sounding impatient and cold: “Get up and speak.”
In reality, she was unaccustomed to people kneeling to her.
After all, she came from modern society. People kneeling to her was a drain on her life.
If there were any grievances, fighting would be a better option!
The female cultivator quickly stood up, not daring to resist, and said in a low, trembling voice: “Senior, I, my name is Zhuo Xi, and I am a disciple of the Yuchuan Sect.”
The reason she was so scared was simple: she was afraid Song Jiulai would kill her.
Yuchuan Sect, a Sect she had never heard of.
Song Jiulai walked over, and under Zhuo Xi’s terrified gaze, she extended her hand: “Give me your Heart Blood.”
Zhuo Xi was stunned, then dared not object. She brought her hand to her chest, and a drop of blood emitting a faint glow was sent out.
She handed over a drop of her Heart Blood.
On the Yunzhou Continent, another way to control others was through Heart Blood.
However, it was usually high-level cultivators controlling lower-level ones.
Heart Blood was the vital blood of every cultivator. Not only could it be influenced and controlled, but giving too much would result in a loss of Cultivation.
Song Jiulai had used it once before, but that was when she made a pact with the Heavenly Dao, which had no impact.
Song Jiulai didn’t worry at all about what Zhuo Xi would say, as she could completely disappear by changing her face, but just in case.
She couldn’t become a bloodthirsty person who killed everyone she met.
But she also understood the rules of this World.
Song Jiulai placed that drop of Heart Blood in the Sect Warehouse.
Because this blood had another function: if she controlled it and was nearby, this female cultivator might feel something.
Placing it in the Sect Warehouse would sever this influence.
As expected, after discovering that her Heart Blood had been taken by Song Jiulai, Zhuo Xi felt nothing and was clearly a little stunned.
After finishing all this, Song Jiulai left the Place directly.
Having given her Heart Blood, Zhuo Xi naturally knew what to say and what not to say.
After Song Jiulai left, Zhuo Xi remained in place for three seconds before flying away in a direction opposite to Xuanwu City.
It seemed she also knew that if she were caught by those three Mid Foundation Establishment cultivators, she probably wouldn’t survive.
The demon cultivator and Song Jiulai were gone, and the Sky Sound Grass was also gone. She would naturally become the unlucky scapegoat for the three furious Mid Foundation Establishment cultivators to vent their anger on.
Song Jiulai retracted her Spiritual Sense.
She touched her face: “What a shame, I felt this face was quite well done, and now I have to change it again.”
System: “You don’t need to be so troublesome. She doesn’t dare to say anything, and the other three cultivators didn’t personally see how you killed that cultivator. It’s just a Sky Sound Grass. Xuanwu City will at most look for the whereabouts of that demon cultivator. If they can’t find him, they might even think you were killed by the demon cultivator. Would they go to great lengths to hunt you down for a mere Tier 3 Spirit Herb?”
Song Jiulai said with worry: “Isn’t this just for peace of mind? What’s our motto? Rely on being stealthy!”
Song Jiulai thought about the appearance of that demon cultivator just now and bared her teeth: “Damn it, I need to refine their corpses quickly, otherwise I feel like they’ve polluted my Magic Treasure!”
And just an hour after Song Jiulai left, traces of other cultivators appeared at the previous location.
“It’s Evil Spirit Technique,” Shen Hai’an said to his companion Ye Guancang. “The Cultivation is Late Foundation Establishment, but here, the aura is gone.”
Ye Guancang crossed his arms: “A Late Foundation Establishment cultivator practicing Evil Spirit Technique? That’s no longer something a Foundation Establishment cultivator can handle. It seems a Golden Core Stage cultivator made a move.”
Shen Hai’an closed his eyes and used his Spiritual Energy. Suddenly, he opened his eyes again with some confusion.
“The aura is too chaotic. I can’t see exactly what happened.”
