Chapter 22: The Master They're Coming
After Long Ming said a lot of nonsense, he stood up and walked forward. Zixue said that the big python was in this back mountain, and he walked forward, just in time to explore the road and see if he could find the trace of the big python.
Half a day later, Long Ming was a little thirsty, so he sat on a boulder, took out the kettle, and drank a few sips of water. Suddenly, Zixue gently pulled Long Ming with her claws, and then prick up her ears vigilantly. Listen to the movement around you!
Long Ming put the kettle away, and listened intently, and in the woods less than a hundred meters away from them, there were bursts of footsteps. Immediately, a very impatient voice came, we have been looking for three days, and we haven't even found a high-level demon beast, and our luck is too bad.
Someone's coming. Long Ming's heart suddenly sank, he wanted to take Zixue away, but it was too late. As he spoke, three men and one woman came out of the woods. These four people are not very old, only seventeen or eighteen years old, and they are all wearing cyan robes.
This is a disciple of the Tianshui Sect? Long Ming could see at a glance that several of them were disciples of the Tianshui Sect. On the other side of this mountain, it is not far from the Zixiao Sect. Moreover, the strength of the two sects is about the same, and there will always be some fights in the open and in the dark.
When the four people saw Long Ming, they were all slightly stunned. Then they saw Zixue squatting on Long Ming's shoulder, and their faces all changed. Of these four people, one gave birth to a yellow puff, one of them did not have anything special about his appearance, and the other had a dark spot on his face, and the woman was just an ordinary person and not beautiful.
The cultivation of several of them had already reached the Eight Heavens of the Martial Spirit Realm. Although the sable has transformed into a little fox, the demonic aura on its body cannot be covered. They knew that the little fox squatting on Long Ming's shoulder was a sable, but that sable was a half-step martial emperor cultivator's demon beast, and it was fierce and violent by nature, how could it become a little fox and squat on this young man's shoulder?
Could it be that this teenager took it in? But how is this possible? The four of them glanced at each other quickly, and their faces changed a few times. Below is Wei Xiaotian, the inner disciple of the Tianshui Sect, this is my junior sister and junior brother. Dare to ask Xiaoyou, are you a disciple of Zixiao Sect? The disciple of the Tianshui Sect who was the leader bowed his hand and said hello to Long Ming.
Long Ming nodded, and also clenched his fists and said, I am Long Ming, the inner disciple of Zixiao Sect. Is it a sable squatting on your shoulder? The yellow-skinned disciple walked out from behind Wei Xiaotian and asked.
Long Ming touched his chin with his hand, and said lightly, it is rare for me and is willing to be my contract beast. The Tianshui Sect and the Zixiao Sect seemed to have a good relationship from the outside. There were also many people who corresponded with each other. But when you meet a disciple of the Tianshui Sect in the deep mountains, it is better to be careful.
And listen to their tone, they came into the mountains for the sable. Now that the sable was on his shoulder, it was inevitable that they would recognize it.
The yellow-faced disciple saw Long Ming answer like this, and although there was a trace of doubt in his eyes, he didn't say anything more. Sable is the cultivation of the half-step Martial Emperor, and they know better than anyone else. Even if the four of them joined forces, they might not be able to subdue it. The young man standing in front of them was only seventeen or eighteen years old, his figure was not strong, and his cultivation was only the appearance of a martial artist's ninefold, how could he possibly subdue the sable?
Because Long Ming's master didn't let him show all his cultivation, so in the eyes of outsiders, Long Ming was just a martial artist's ninefold cultivation, although Long Ming saw them with doubts, but he didn't bother to talk nonsense with them, and then he hugged his fists and said to a few people, and a few senior brothers asked him to leave first.
Long Ming didn't want to cause trouble, and he also knew that these four people didn't believe what he said at all, so in such a situation, he still just slipped away. But the four of them looked at the sable sable squatting on Long Ming's shoulder, and their faces all showed greedy expressions.
When Long Ming walked away, the female disciple suddenly said to the three men, that sable is a demon beast cultivated by a half-step Martial Emperor, and it has a violent temperament. Even if the four of us joined forces, it was no match for it, so how could it possibly surrender to him? He may not be from the Zixiao Sect, the female disciple said coldly.
Senior Brother Wei, that sable is a half-step Martial Emperor's cultivation, and its value is extremely high. It's been a month, and we still haven't gained anything, and the reward is about to be lost, you see, are we ......" The yellow-faced disciple's face quickly flashed a touch of viciousness, and a cold murderous aura emerged from his eyes.
He stretched out his hand and made a neck wiping motion at the point of his throat. When the female disciple and Chang Chin heard this, their expressions also moved, and a look of greed instantly appeared on the faces of the two of them.
They all set their eyes on Wei Xiaotian's face, and it was obvious that the two of them had exactly the same thoughts as the yellow face. Wei Xiaotian frowned slightly, and groaned, he saw that the sable was also itching, and he wanted to get it. However, as their elder brother, he naturally had to think about some more things.
Wei Xiaotian pondered slightly, and then said slowly, this kid is very likely to be a member of the Beast Sect, but he is wearing the clothes of a disciple of the Zixiao Sect. We don't know if he has any accomplices, if he is really a disciple of the Zixiao Sect, if we miss, then it will be a big trouble.
And the sable, it looks like it was contracted by that kid. If it attacks us, then we are no match for it. Wei Xiaotian said worriedly.
Senior brother, senior brother can track him, we just follow him from afar. Wait until we understand the observation, and then decide whether to start or not. And that sable, it would be nice if he was really contracted by that kid. We kill that kid, and his contract is automatically terminated. The female disciple laughed happily when she said this.
So let's do it, that sable will never make a move. The yellow-faced disciple added. However, it didn't know that once the contract was terminated, it would be unable to move with half a pillar of incense, and we could just take advantage of this time to kill it! The smile on the female disciple's face became more and more gloomy.
Senior sister, you are really clever! Another disciple couldn't help but say, if he has an accomplice, we will retreat, if not, we will kill that kid.
Okay, let's do it. Wei Xiaotian thought for a moment, and felt that what the female disciple said was right, so he nodded in agreement. Then the four of them went into the woods, and the speed was so fast that they disappeared in an instant. Master, the people just now came along. Zixue whispered in Long Ming's ear!
