The entire journey was silent. This time, young master Lian didn't dare to delay any longer. The hunting group hurried all the way until seven in the morning before stopping to set up camp.
Yan Li learned from Ma Jun that the ghost that attacked young master Lian was completely different from the ones in the mortal world. Not only were the ghosts in the mortal world small in size, but apart from the heavy Yin energy, they didn't have any attack power. The ghost of Juque Mountain couldn't be used with normal techniques. One had to use the Fierce Sun Rune Treasured Artifact in order to destroy it. Otherwise, once it invaded the body, it would be controlled. Even if it escaped control, its Yin energy would still remain in the body. In serious cases, it could even cause death on the spot.
However, the ghost moved slowly. As long as one was prepared, it was easy to deal with.
That night, they slept outdoors. Zhou Tong and Ma Jun kept watch. Yan Li was given a luxurious tent by young master Lian. It was right next to his own tent. It seemed like he specifically allowed Yan Li to be close to him.
From a fringe member of the hunting group to a favorite of young master Lian, it was really unexpected.
However, this change also had other effects.
"Yan Li, how long have you been cultivating?" Young master Lian pulled Yan Li to talk and even invited him to eat a "feast" with him.
Towards this special "honor", Yan Li didn't seem to be surprised. Instead, he enjoyed it with a clear conscience. Qin Siming and the others who were watching from a distance hated him so much that they almost bit their chopsticks.
"Well, it's been 19 years," Yan Li said.
"Not bad, not bad!" Young master Lian laughed. "Nineteen years to reach the Cultivation Realm. You're not any worse than those Confucian orthodoxy disciples. I see that you're young and have a lot of potential. How about it? Do you want to come under my tutelage? I guarantee that you'll live a good life. All your cultivation needs will be provided by me. "
Qin Siming was jealous and hateful. He couldn't help but shout, "Young master Lian, forgive me for speaking bluntly. A Cultivation Realm cultivator that can't even deal with a ghost will probably be a piece of trash!"
Young master Lian sneered and sneered. He reprimanded him bluntly, "I know what you loose practitioners are thinking. I know that you guys are feeling unbalanced. Why did Yan Li get the opportunity to pledge loyalty to me when he just arrived in White Water City? Think about your performance at the critical moment, especially you, Qin Siming. Apart from stealing the limelight, have you done anything beneficial to this young master? "
Qin Siming was furious, but when he thought of the other party's identity, he could only endure it. For cultivators like them who were not as good as those who were not as good as those who were more ambitious, the best way out was to find a family like the Lian Clan to support them. They did not need to run around everywhere and only needed to immerse themselves in cultivation. They would each take what they needed. Compared to idling away in a hunting group, it was many times better.
However, for a family as wealthy as the Lian Clan, they themselves provided for many guests, so they were especially picky about the newcomers. It wasn't that he didn't try to fight for it, but he was tactfully rejected every time. Now that Yan Li had easily obtained the opportunity that he had been dreaming of, how could he not be filled with jealousy and hatred?
"Alright, don't waste any more words with me," Young Master Lian bluntly concluded.
Qin Siming snorted coldly and left. The others followed him back to the tent.
"Yan Li, come, have a drink with me." Young Master Lian raised his wine cup. Seeing that Yan Li's cup was empty, he immediately said to the concubine beside him with a fierce expression, "What's going on? Can't you see that his cup is empty? Hurry up and pour him some wine!"
"Yes, Young Master," the concubine replied sweetly. She glanced at Yan Li with a flirtatious glance and gently poured wine for Yan Li.
Yan Li raised his cup and clinked it with Young Master Lian. He took a sip and said, "Thank you for your kind intentions, Young Master Lian."
"Hm?" Young Master Lian clearly did not expect Yan Li to refuse. He frowned but did not say anything. Then, as if sensing something, he lowered his head and found that one of the concubines was staring straight at Yan Li. He grinned and patted the concubine's butt. "Since you like him, why don't you hurry up and serve him?"
"Can I, Young Master?" the concubine asked in surprise.
"You will sleep with Yan Li tonight. Whatever he wants you to do, you will do," Young Master Lian said.
"Yes, Young Master." The concubine immediately stood up and ran to Yan Li's side. She snuggled up to him and sat down. She said coquettishly, "Young Master Yan, you have to take pity on me tonight."
Young Master Lian winked at Yan Li ambiguously. "Red apricot is a man's nemesis. I guarantee that you will be ecstatic. I'll lend it to you to play with." As he spoke, he hugged the other concubine and entered the tent. Soon, an indescribable sound was heard.
"Young Master Yan, the night is too short. Let's also …" The concubine said and shyly buried her head in Yan Li's arms.
She suddenly felt her delicate body tremble as if an inexplicable force had drilled into her brain. Then, she fainted without making a sound.
Yan Li hugged the unconscious concubine and also entered the tent.
On a high slope in the distance, the tents of the Five Tycoons were lined up side by side. When they saw the scene of Yan Li hugging the concubine into the tent, a look of desire flashed in their eyes.
Young Master Lian's concubine was beautiful enough to attract the covetous eyes of men.
Unfortunately, he was not the one who entered the tent with them.
Qiu Shaofeng suddenly cast his gaze on Qin Sufang who was huddled in the corner of the tent. He said with an inexplicable meaning, "Big Brother, I haven't been intimate with Sufang for a long time. Why don't you let me have her tonight …"
Qin Siming was in a rage. He grabbed Qiu Shaofeng's shirt and roared, "Then what about me?"
"Didn't you say that we all have a chance?" Qiu Shaofeng's face was pale, but he still refused to give up.
Qin Siming's chest heaved up and down rapidly. However, he seemed to have thought of something and let go of Qiu Shaofeng. He said coldly, "Don't cause trouble like last time. Otherwise, I'll kill you!"
"Don't worry, Big Brother!" Qiu Shaofeng was overjoyed. Under the envious gazes of the other two, he pulled Qin Sufang, who did not know how to resist at all, and ran into another tent. Very soon, a deep roar like that of a wild beast came from inside.
…
It could be said that each tent was a small world. To be more specific, it should be a group.
As the weakest members of the Hunting Group, Ma Jun and the other two would undoubtedly unite, especially since Yan Li suddenly had a bright future.
As mentioned before, this kind of change would produce some other effects.
For example, at this moment, Ma Jun took the initiative to accompany the other two to keep watch, but in fact, he was discussing something else.
"We can't count on Yan Li anymore!" Ma Jun spoke first and said a consensus.
The other two nodded.
Zhou Tong said, "His strength seems to be a little weaker than ours. We can't count on him anyway."
Sun Lu said, "We have to find a way ourselves."
"If we sell the wooden plate, each of us can get at least ten soul stones." Ma Jun looked around at the other two and said in a low voice, "But I suspect that we can't wait for that day. Once the battle between the Five Tycoons and Chen Tai becomes white-hot, it will be very difficult for us to protect ourselves. Moreover … "
He gritted his teeth and said, "Chen Tai secretly investigated us, so he deliberately gathered us together for the sake of our hard-earned savings … No wonder the Hunting Group he led suffered heavy casualties every time!"
"Brother Ma, in this case, let's escape at night, shall we?" Zhou Tong said, "As long as we are careful, it should not be difficult to return to White Water City."
"No, I don't want to give up!" Ma Jun clenched his fists and said, "As long as I have twenty more soul stones, I can gather the money needed for the enlightenment. I don't want to leave like this. At least, I have to steal the wooden plate!"
"Steal?" Sun Lu was shocked, "The wooden plate is in Qin Siming's hands. How can we have a chance?"
