"I'm going to cling onto you and not leave!"
After saying this, Hong Zhu was afraid that Xiao Chen would not agree, so she wrapped her arms around his neck and tightly hugged him without letting go. She pouted and stared at Xiao Chen, as if saying "I'm not going, what can you do to me".
Seeing Hong Zhu like this, Xiao Chen felt both amused and helpless. However, he also understood very well in his heart that it was precisely because he had been avoiding Hong Zhu all this time that Hong Zhu would be so anxious. Even though he had given his body to Xiao Chen, he still felt afraid and uncertain.
Thinking up to here, Xiao Chen's heart was filled with tenderness and tenderness. He turned over and pressed Hong Zhu under his body, lightly kissing her delicate red lips, blocking Hong Zhu's cry of surprise. Then, he said with a smile, "Now that you're my savior, of course I'll do whatever you say. I'll listen to everything you say!"
"Hateful little scoundrel …" Hong Zhu coquettishly glanced at Xiao Chen, reached out to hold his shoulders, and took the initiative to greet him. The cave was once again filled with a strong feeling of spring...
The morning sun shone on the plaza of the Burning Sky Sect. What should have been a clean and tidy plaza was now a mess of many things. There were bags piled here and there, and many disciples were sweating profusely as they bent over and counted something.
Duan Suqing, the Sect Master of the Burning Sky Sect, stood at the side of the plaza with a solemn expression. Gong Shaoxi, who also had a dark expression, was next to him. The two of them silently looked at the bags of heavenly treasures on the ground as the disciples inspected and recorded them one by one.
According to the instructions given by Gong Ruitong, while dealing with the Profound Cloud Sect, they had also secretly sent out many disciples to search for the whereabouts of Xiao Chen and Hong Zhu. As a result, they had searched all the nearby mountains, but still hadn't found any traces of the two.
Because the majority of the disciples had been sent by Duan Suqing to search for Xiao Chen and Hong Zhu, their progress had been greatly delayed. The deadline given by Elder Nan Gong was approaching, but there was still a pile of heavenly treasures that hadn't been counted.
In desperation, Duan Suqing could only spread the treasures on the square, and then called over all the disciples who were still in the sect, and let them check them one by one.
"Sect Master Duan, isn't the efficiency of your Burning Heaven Sect's disciples a little too low?" An impatient voice rang out from afar before the person arrived.
Duan Suqing turned his head when he heard the voice, only to see Elder Nangong walking over with his subordinates from a short distance away. With a black face, he berated loudly, "It's just a piece of trash, yet you still haven't finished counting them for five whole days! Sect Master Duan, don't tell me you're trying to stall for time and wait for that Xiao Qiang to come back and save you? "
Due to the assistance of various medicinal pills, Elder Nangong's injuries had already completely healed, so he didn't want to stay in the Burning Heaven Sect any longer. It was only because of the reason he had used before, which was to wait for these heavenly treasures to finish counting, that Elder Nangong had patiently waited for so many days!
"This … Elder Nangong, please don't misunderstand. I'm sure you've also seen that the number of these heavenly treasures is indeed very large. Furthermore, our Burning Heaven Sect is already short on manpower, so it's really impossible for us to finish counting them in such a short period of time. Why don't … I trouble you to wait for a few more days?" Duan Suqing endured his anger and said with a smile.
Actually, what Elder Nangong said wasn't wrong. Duan Suqing indeed wanted to stall for time. Perhaps after a few more days, the disciples would be able to find Xiao Qiang!
Duan Suqing originally didn't have high expectations for Xiao Qiang's survival, but Gong Ruitong had always insisted that Upper Immortal Xiao's divine quality was extraordinary, and that he definitely wouldn't die just like that. Furthermore, Gong Shaoxi also strongly supported his father's viewpoint, which was why Duan Suqing had spent so much effort to find the whereabouts of Xiao Qiang and Hong Zhu.
"Hmph! Stop talking nonsense. You secretly sent out a large number of disciples just to find Xiao Qiang, which is why you wasted so much time. Don't think that this old man really doesn't know! "Elder Nangong laughed coldly and mercilessly exposed him.
"Misunderstanding … it's all a misunderstanding …" Duan Suqing's sweat was about to drip down. He wanted to explain a few more words, but was interrupted by Elder Nangong with a wave of his hand. "Alright, there's no need to count them!"
Duan Suqing was slightly stunned. He thought that Elder Nangong couldn't wait any longer, so he planned to give up these things and directly leave the Burning Heaven Sect. He couldn't help but secretly rejoice in his heart.
However, before he could rejoice for long, he heard Elder Nangong continue to say, "In any case, most of these heavenly treasures belong to the Profound Cloud Sect. Also, hand over all the Spirit Crystals that you've hidden! This old man doesn't have the time to wait for you to dawdle. Give us all these things, we'll directly bring them back to the Profound Cloud Sect and count them ourselves! "
Gong Shaoxi had already endured by the side for a long time. When he heard Elder Nangong being so overbearing, he couldn't help but fly into a rage. He couldn't help but point at Elder Nangong's nose and scolded, "You old thing, you're simply going too far! These things were clearly seized from the mountain bandits' lair by our people. Moreover, that place is very far from your Profound Cloud Sect. How could the mountain bandits possibly run to your place to snatch it? "
Elder Nangong's eyes flashed. He was just worrying about not being able to find a suitable opportunity to establish his might, and now someone had taken the initiative to come knocking on his door! He pretended to inadvertently tilt his head slightly and secretly gave a look to the disciple beside him.
Gong Shaoxi didn't notice and continued to loudly scold, "You're simply taking advantage of the Profound Cloud Sect's power to forcefully embezzle our Burning Heaven Sect's heavenly treasures! Shameless! Smelly shameless! "
"Impudent! Little ant, you actually dare to be disrespectful to Elder Nangong, you're f * cking looking for death! " A Profound Cloud Sect disciple received Elder Nangong's signal and immediately stared at Gong Shaoxi and scolded.
As soon as he finished speaking, the disciple's body shook and revealed the strength of a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator. A faint Yuan Qi immediately appeared and wrapped around his arm.
He jumped straight into the air and then took out a huge sword that was flashing with a green light. Without saying a word, he waved his arms and fiercely chopped down at Gong Shaoxi!
Gong Shaoxi had never expected that while he was still talking, his opponent would suddenly attack. Moreover, it was a killing move. He had no time to react at all. Moreover, he was not strong enough. Even if he wanted to resist, he would only die in the end!
Gong Shaoxi, who was completely disheartened, clenched his teeth and solemnly closed his eyes, quietly waiting for death to come.
Duan Suqing, who had wanted Gong Shaoxi to shut up, was shocked to see this. Just as he was about to quickly open his mouth to plead for mercy, he suddenly felt a green light flash in front of him and heard a crisp "kacha" sound of bones breaking!
