257 What to Do After Being Discovered?
“What if we’re discovered?” Dong Xi carefully asked.
“Well then there’s one thing that will happen…” Su Cheng said with a smile. “You’ll be buried with me.”
Dong Xi suddenly felt a lingering fear and thought about how to reject Su Cheng. He continued, “If you don’t bring me, I’ll make destroy the Alchemy Sect.”
Dong Xi was speechless.
How could he threaten people like this? She had no choice now, right?
If Dong Xi was given another chance, she would have just roasted this little black snake and eaten it when she first picked it up.
As soon as she had this thought, she felt a strange feeling. She looked up and saw Su Cheng’s cold eyes.
Dong Xi suppressed the thoughts in her heart in fear. Dong Xi smiled and said, “Yes, you said it yourself. I have to. With you around, I’ll have the confidence.”
Su Cheng knew that Dong Xi did not mean what she said, but he did not expose her.
Dong Xi watched as Su Cheng entered the cave before running to Liu Qing’s side.
When Liu Qing saw Dong Xi coming over, she happily came down from the tree and hugged Dong Xi affectionately. Dong Xi did not respond to Liu Qing in time just now, causing her to feel a little embarrassed. However, there was nothing she could do. She could not defeat the Big Snake, so he could only be obedient.
“I was talking to the Big Snake just now, sorry,” said Dong Xi.
Liu Qing said understandingly, “It’s okay. That guy is really scary. You can talk to him first. I’ll wait. It’s okay.”
Liu Qing could not tell Su Cheng’s cultivation, but they were all demons and could instinctively feel Su Cheng’s fear.
It was a very strange feeling. Liu Qing could not tell if it was her bloodline or her cultivation, but she was very sure that the Big Snake was very powerful. It could destroy Liu Qing’s soul with just a move of his fingers.
Dong Xi looked at the sensible Liu Qing and felt very warm. She said, “How have you been these past few days? Are you satisfied with this place?”
Speaking of this, Liu Qing immediately said, “Very good! The spiritual energy in the previous village was too little, but the spiritual energy here is abundant. I think I’m about to break through now.”
Dong Xi looked at Liu Qing’s happy expression and was also very happy. She also told Liu Qing that she would be going out tomorrow and asked her to cultivate well. She also asked Songsong to stay at home and accompany Liu Qing.
Liu Qing agreed, but she was hesitating to tell Dong Xi something.
“Liu Qing, just say what you want to say,” said Dong Xi.
Liu Qing sighed and said with her head lowered. “It’s nothing. I just miss Ah Leng. Ever since she regained consciousness, we’ve always been together. But now that she’s out alone, I keep worrying.”
Dong Xi consoled her. “The path of Immortal cultivation is lonely. There will be no one to accompany you all the time. If I can get a jade slip to Ah Leng, I will definitely get her to come and see you.”
‘How good would it be if everyone had a communication jade slip?’ Dong Xi thought. ‘When I return, I’ll buy a communication jade slip for Liu Qing.’
Time flew by quickly. In the early morning, Dong Xi finished her training and stood up.
Today was the day of departure. He had agreed with the Big Snake that they would go together. Dong Xi stood up and walked to the entrance of the cave abode. Just as she was about to knock on the door, she saw a black shadow fly out from the door and attach itself to Dong Xi’s wrist.
The snake patterns were exactly the same as before.
Dong Xi rolled down her sleeve and wanted to cover it up, but she felt a little helpless. Was the Big Snake doing this because he was afraid that Dong Xi would go back on her word?
What Dong Xi thought was right. Su Cheng was afraid that Dong Xi would go back on her promise at the last minute and was too lazy to talk nonsense with Dong Xi, so he directly turned into a snake tattoo and attached himself to Dong Xi’s arm.
Dong Xi told Liu Qing to look after Songsong and told her not to run around. She also told her to leave a lot of spirit fruits behind for fear that Songsong would mess around at home.
After settling everything, Dong Xi took out her little leaf and flew to the square to gather.
Qi Refinement, Foundation Establishment, and Golden Core cultivators were all there, a total of 100 people. By the time Dong Xi arrived, almost all of them had already arrived.
Dong Xi wanted to look for a familiar figure, but she could not find him after a long time.
Eldest Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother had not arrived yet. The other disciples who were close to them had not made it into the top 100 because their cultivation was not high enough.
Dong Xi let out a soft sigh. She took out her communication jade slip and was about to urge her Senior Brothers when she saw people walking over one by one and saying excitedly, “Junior Sister, Junior Sister Dong Xi!”
“Senior Brother Xiong Ye!” Dong Xi said with a smile.
Previously, the two of them had practiced together and had a good relationship.
Xiong Ye came to Dong Xi’s side. Just as he was about to say something, Dong Xi said, “Senior Brother has also entered the top 100?”
“That’s right,” Xiong Ye said. “It’s too difficult. Let’s not talk about bringing glory to the sect. As long as I meet the people of the Ningtian Sect, I, your Senior Brother, will also teach them a good lesson.”
“What’s your rank, Senior Brother?” Dong Xi nodded.
Just as she said that, Dong Xi noticed that Xiong Ye’s expression immediately changed subtly. Dong Xi was a little confused.
Xiong Ye was silent for a long time before he said in embarrassment, “The same as you, Junior Sister.”
