With the matter of the Earthly Moon Baleful Wind resolved, Lu Xiaotian directly bid farewell to Cao Sheng. Although Cao Sheng was reluctant, he also knew that Lu Xiaotian was not someone who would miss a place. Seeing Lu Xiaotian out alone, Cao Sheng watched as Lu Xiaotian flew away.
"Come out," Cao Sheng said indifferently after seeing Lu Xiaotian disappear with his hands behind his back.
"Father!" Cao Xier walked out from behind a swaying tree in a long dress.
"Lu Xiaotian is a dragon among men. Although he isn't a direct descendant of any family, he was able to reach such a level with his own efforts. Even those from prominent families can't compare to him. What's more, his temperament is not bad. If he could stay, he would be a good match for you. Unfortunately, Lu Xiaotian's ambition does not lie here. His heart is only focused on the Nascent Soul stage. You have to give up on this thought as soon as possible. "Cao Sheng said as he walked, disappearing into the marquis's mansion.
At first, Cao Xier's face was a bit red because her father had seen through her thoughts, but later on, it turned into a faint sigh. She stood in place for a long time, only the rustling of leaves and the gentle sound of the wind could be heard. Cao Xier stomped her feet and turned back to the mansion.
The tall spirit tree quickly retreated behind her. The valley was filled with the cries of apes, birds, and insects. Lu Xiaotian did not fly too high to avoid being targeted by the demon birds in the air. Even with his current strength, he was unwilling to fly with the demon birds. After all, the demon birds had a certain advantage in speed in the air.
Lu Xiaotian landed on a large tree with a trunk so thick that it would take a dozen people to wrap their arms around it. Far away in a canyon, a group of people was rushing forward.
"It's them!" Lu Xiaotian's eyes flashed with a strange light. At this time, he had met Jin Zhangdao, He Rushuang, Wu Xiaoai, Sun Youcai, and the others when he had just broken through to the seventh order. There was also a sloppy Daoist.
Normally, these few people would not be able to attract Lu Xiaotian's attention, but he found something very interesting. Jin Zhangdao and the others were actually moving in the same direction as him, only a few dozen miles away from the swamp.
At first, Lu Xiaotian wasn't too sure. However, after following him for a while, Lu Xiaotian was certain. Now, Lu Xiaotian's heart couldn't help but jump. He recalled the words of the blade-wielding cultivator, Zhao Huotian, that Jin Zhangdao was after the Nascent Soul Fruit.
"Yu Dongbao and the others seem to be quite mysterious. They must be up to something big. Could it be that what Zhao Huotian said was true? Or could it be that the rumors about the Nascent Soul Fruit are true?"
Thinking about the Nascent Soul Fruit, Lu Xiaotian's eyes narrowed. If that was the case, then he had to go and investigate. After all, the Misty Hall was too dangerous. Unless absolutely necessary, it was better to avoid going there. As for the mysterious place under the swamp, although it was not a good place, compared to the Misty Hall, Lu Xiaotian felt that the latter was safer. Since he had encountered it, he naturally couldn't miss it.
Lu Xiaotian's figure moved and he left the tree he was hiding in and followed Jin Zhangdao's group.
"Oh, Fellow Daoist Jin, this poor Daoist really can't walk anymore. You guys are the same. There are so many of you and your magic power is so high. Why do you have to bring a burden like this poor Daoist?" The sloppy Daoist Priest seemed to have suffered some injuries.
"Shut up. If you dare to speak again, I'll kill you." Jin Zhangdao looked at the sloppy Daoist Priest with a murderous look.
The sloppy Daoist Priest immediately covered his mouth with his hand.
The group quickly passed through the canyon, causing some of the low level Demon Beasts to scatter in all directions.
Lu Xiaotian stepped on the back of a frightened plum blossom deer and borrowed some strength to move forward swiftly, as light as a feather. The Plum Blossom Deer looked back in surprise. They quickly disappeared into the jungle.
Not long after, Jin Zhangdao led the group to the edge of the swamp. However, Jin Zhangdao stood still and did not move.
"Which group of friends have followed us all the way here? Can you show yourself?" Jin Zhangdao put his hands behind his back and looked at Lu Xiaotian.
Lu Xiaotian was surprised. He didn't expect to be discovered by Jin Zhangdao. This person was indeed extraordinary.
"Fellow Daoist Jin is really powerful." Lu Xiaotian coughed. Since he had been discovered, there was no need to hide anymore.
"Huh? Lu Daoyou, where did you run off to? Why are you here? "Sun Shoucai saw Lu Xiaotian and asked in surprise.
"Daoist Lu, you're very disobedient. Ever since you got lost in Blood Lion Mountain, I've been looking for you for a while, but you left without saying goodbye. You made me sad for a while." He Rushuang's eyes lit up when she saw Lu Xiaotian, and she grumbled.
"I was wondering who it was. So it was you. Why did you leave without saying goodbye in Blood Lion Mountain? Why are you following us now?" Jin Zhangdao looked coldly at Lu Xiaotian and was a little surprised. Logically speaking, Lu Xiaotian had just reached the Core Formation Stage and was the lowest level of cannon fodder. However, he had followed them all the way here. If it weren't for his Spirit Beast, he wouldn't have noticed him with his late Jin Dan Stage cultivation. Even a powerful woman like He Rushuang didn't notice him at all. This was a bit strange.
"I have some personal matters to attend to in Blood Lion Mountain. I didn't deliberately follow you. I was chased by several Monster Beasts and fled here in panic. Fortunately, I met several Fellow Daoists. But after following you for a while, I didn't expect Fellow Daoist Jin to be so vigilant and discover me so quickly." Lu Xiaotian smiled.
"If that's the case, then come with us. Remember, don't wander around this time." He Rushuang chuckled.
Jin Zhangdao looked at He Rushuang with dissatisfaction and snorted inwardly. He raised his hand and beckoned to the distance. A subtle sound came from the underbrush and several golden centipedes flew out of the underbrush and disappeared into Jin Zhangdao's wide sleeve. Lu Xiaotian suddenly realized that this was the reason. There were countless demon beasts and demon insects in the Black Sky Mountain Range. He had neglected them all along the way and didn't expect that they were Jin Zhangdao's eyes and ears. Being discovered by Jin Zhangdao was not a bad thing. It seemed that he had to be careful of this person in the future. Jin Zhangdao didn't say anything and just pointed at the sloppy Taoist.
"You, go in front. After twenty miles, Sun Shoucai will take your place."
"Poor Taoist? I can't do it. I'm still injured. I can't deal with the Monster Beasts in this swamp. "The sloppy Taoist was startled.
"You can choose to be attacked by the Monster Beasts and be rescued by us, or you can choose to let me do it now." Jin Zhangdao's eyes were filled with killing intent.
"I, I, okay, I'll go." The sloppy Daoist Priest gritted his teeth. His hands trembled as he took out a rough looking wooden armor from his storage bag and put it on. Then, he held a few talismans in his hand as he nervously flew forward. Then, he looked back at Jin Zhangdao and said, "Don't fall too far."
