Chapter Twenty-Three: Separate Heads Back to the City
Sun Xiaofei came out of the cave and saw at a glance that Vickery, Lucia and others were waiting for him outside the cave. And when they saw him come out, they all came to him.
"Ryan, you're finally out? We've been waiting for you for a long time. Lucia said as soon as they met.
Sun Xiaofei greeted everyone with a smile, and then asked Vickery, "Captain, how long have I been cultivating?"
"You've been cultivating for three hours, and you see, it's getting dark. Let's spend the night here for the time being, and then we will leave tomorrow. Vickery replied.
"Well, Captain, I have a proposal, tomorrow we will split up in two ways, you take Katie and the others, and I and Manio and the others will rush back to Rock City separately. Sun Xiaofei walked to a place with few people and said to Vickery.
Vickery was a little surprised when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Ryan, aren't you afraid of meeting people from the Night Empire?"
Vickery's fears were not unreasonable, with their current manpower, it would be dangerous if they encountered a large group of enemies. If it weren't for Sun Xiaofei's great power that day, he killed a lot of black-robed people, which greatly reduced the opponent's strength. The most important thing is that Sun Xiaofei restrained Reeves and defeated him, otherwise, those black-robed people would not retreat so easily.
Sun Xiaofei laughed and explained to Vickery: "Captain, you don't have to worry. Naturally, I have a way to get everyone to Rock Castle safely. With so many of us walking together, the goal is obvious, and the speed cannot be increased. Their target is those hedrons, as long as Manio and I are separated from you, they will definitely chase us, and with us as cover, you can return to Rock City first. ”
Vickery listened to Sun Xiaofei's words and immediately fell silent. After a while, he said in a deep voice, "Ryan, if you do this, won't you all put yourself in a dangerous situation?"
"Captain, I have my own measure, you don't have to worry about our safety. You know, we're not that easy to deal with either. Captain, you don't have to hesitate any longer, just decide. Sun Xiaofei said solemnly.
"Oh well. Just do as you say. Vickery looked at Sun Xiaofei's determined eyes, knowing that since he had decided to do so, he would not make any changes. Nodding his head, he agreed.
Hearing this, Sun Xiaofei's face turned happy and said with a smile: "Thank you, captain." ”
Vickery shook his head slightly, and he really felt some admiration for Sun Xiaofei's courage and courage. The two stopped talking about this matter, and chatted for a while, and Vickery told Sun Xiaofei to rest well, and he would have to hurry tomorrow, and then turned around and walked away.
Sun Xiaofei watched Vickery walk away, turned his head to look at a certain place, and said softly, "Come out quickly." There is no one else here. ”
After Sun Xiaofei's voice sounded, he poked out a head on a mountain rock among the weeds and looked left and right. There was no one else present except Sun Xiaofei, so she walked out slowly, lowered her head slightly, and walked towards Sun Xiaofei, it was Katie.
Although the night was a little dim, Sun Xiaofei's eyesight was very good, and he could still see a touch of blush on her face, thinking of Katie's appearance of hiding behind the rocks just now and not daring to move, she couldn't help but smile.
"Katie, what are you doing hiding there so late?" Sun Xiaofei asked her with a smile.
"Well, this one I ...... I'm ......" was asked by Sun Xiaofei, Katie seemed to feel very embarrassed, and she became stammering when she spoke.
Sun Xiaofei looked at her guilty look, so he joked with her. With a straight face, he asked, "Katie, did you hear what we just said?"
Katie nodded lightly, groaned, raised her head to look at Sun Xiaofei, and asked, "My lord, do you really want to separate?"
Sun Xiaofei shook his head and said, "No." You can't follow me, it's going to be dangerous. Your strength is not strong enough, once you meet the enemy, I dare not guarantee your safety, you better follow everyone. ”
Hearing this, Katie's face couldn't help but be gloomy and she felt very sad. After hesitating for a moment, he said slowly: "My lord, I want to learn magic, can you teach me?"
"Oh, do you want to learn magic from me?" Sun Xiaofei was stunned for a moment, touched his nose, nodded and looked at Katie and said, "My cultivation is hard, can you stand it?"
"I'm not afraid of hard work, I just want to be so powerful as an adult, and I don't have to be afraid of being bullied by others. Katie said with a solemn expression.
Sun Xiaofei could feel the firm belief in Katie's heart, and he could also see that Katie sincerely wanted to learn from him. So, after a little thought, Sun Xiaofei said to her, "Come here." I'll look at your constitution. ”
"Yes!"
Katie was overjoyed when she heard this, and hurriedly approached and stopped in front of Sun Xiaofei.
Sun Xiaofei picked up one of her small hands, Katie's body trembled slightly, her body had not been touched by any man anywhere, Sun Xiaofei was the first. The thought of being able to follow Sun Xiaofei, a strong man, to cultivate, Katie was relieved. This process only regained his composure in the blink of an eye, and he looked at Sun Xiaofei with a focused expression.
Sun Xiaofei didn't care about her little thoughts, his divine sense followed Katie's hand and entered her body, squinting his eyes and carefully observing his movements.
Katie only felt a slight chill coming from her hand, and then there was no abnormal reaction. Katie didn't dare to move, and honestly waited for Sun Xiaofei to finish the inspection.
Sun Xiaofei's divine sense looked everywhere in her body, and she already knew Katie's physical condition.
Sun Xiaofei let go of Katie's hand, took two steps back, and said seriously: "Your physique can only be regarded as average, and it is still a single-attribute magical talent. The speed of cultivation will be relatively fast. However, due to the influence of talent, the achievement may not be very high in the future. ”
"Oh. It doesn't matter, as long as I can follow the adults to cultivate, I am very satisfied. Katie couldn't help but be a little disappointed when she heard Sun Xiaofei say this. However, this is the result of Sun Xiaofei's examination, and she can only accept this fact.
"Katie, don't worry. Just because I don't mean you won't be able to change that situation now. Sun Xiaofei said with a smile on his face.
When Katie heard this, she suddenly came to her senses and hurriedly asked, "Can I really change my physique?"
"Well, there are no absolutes in everything, as long as you are willing to work hard, there is nothing that cannot be achieved. If you do what I say now, your future achievements will not necessarily be inferior to mine. Sun Xiaofei moved his hand, took out some basic cultivation exercises, handed them to Katie, and told her to go back, to carefully practice according to the content written in it, and after she finished cultivating these, Sun Xiaofei gave her the following exercise formula.
Katie took a piece of white jade from Sun Xiaofei's hand, her face was dazed, and she didn't know what to do. The Via Continent usually uses some magic scrolls or animal skins to write words to teach various magical skills and cultivation techniques to its disciples.
Using the recorded cultivation method of jade slips like Sun Xiaofei is a unique way to teach it. No wonder Katie was dumbfounded when she saw it, and she didn't know how to start?
Sun Xiaofei told her, "Since you want to cultivate magic, you must learn to use your spiritual power. Now you try to detach a wisp of your mind and seep into the jade slip in your hand. ”
Katie nodded and did as she was told, condensed her spiritual strength, and worked hard to separate a wisp of soul, which slowly infiltrated the jade slip in her hand. There is nothing difficult in this process, as long as anyone who knows how to use soul power can do it, not to mention that Katie is a magic apprentice herself.
Soon Katie's eyes widened, and she opened her mouth as if she saw something unbelievable. The information recorded in the jade slip was pouring into her mind at an extremely fast speed. Although it is only the first three levels of cultivation mantras in the Tongtian Treasure Book, the huge amount of information is staggering.
Katie's face was full of shock, the cultivation method taught in the jade slip was unheard of, and it was completely different from the cultivation method in the Via Continent. After a long time, Katie slowly withdrew from the jade slip and bowed respectfully to Sun Xiaofei. Sun Xiaofei didn't use any magic to stop her, and let Katie bow to him.
Sun Xiaofei waited for Katie to complete the apprenticeship ceremony, and casually took out an inner armor and some elixirs and spars from the storage bracelet, and gave them to Katie: "You are now my registered disciple, that is, worship me as a teacher, and these things will be given to you for self-defense." Tomorrow you come to see me, I have one more thing for you. Go back now, remember, don't tell anyone about tonight. ”
Under Sun Xiaofei's advice, Katie took what Sun Xiaofei gave her, bowed down and bowed goodbye and left.
Sun Xiaofei stood in place and silently Katie walked away, a gust of wind suddenly blew, and Lucia's figure suddenly appeared next to him.
"Ryan, how did you think of taking her as an apprentice?" Lucia asked, a little puzzled.
"Lucia, you don't know what kind of physique she is. Although her physique is single, it is very special, she is a spatial attribute. You say, should I take her as an apprentice?" Sun Xiaofei looked at Lucia and said with a light smile.
"I see. I understand. Lucia nodded and laughed.
The two talked and laughed and returned to the cave. Someone had already cleaned up there, Sun Xiaofei and Lucia walked into the cave and each found a place to sit down and rest. With their cultivation, even if they don't rest for a few days and nights, they still respect Vickery's arrangement, take a rest first, and wait until late at night, and then get up to take turns on guard in place of others.
There was no word for a night, and in the blink of an eye, a night passed. Early the next morning, Vickery and Sun Xiaofei began to distribute the number of people, and each led a team of men and horses to rush to Rock City separately. When leaving, Sun Xiaofei quietly gave something to Katie and ordered her to open it and take a look at it after she arrived in Rock City.
After saying goodbye to Vickery and the others, Sun Xiaofei and the others left first, and one by one they used their tricks to fly away quickly, disappearing into the depths of the endless mountains and forests.
