Chapter 33: Sworn Friends for Life or Death (3)

Translator: Sissy That Walk

Four months later, Mo Qiu recovered. And the first thing he did after his recovery was to chase after Luo Jianqing and pound him. This time, Luo Jianqing did not win. But when Mo Qiu was about to throw his whip to that beautiful face, he suddenly stopped.

Mo Qiu chuckled and supported Luo Jianqing’s face with whipstock, he said,

"Oh, how could I was willing to hit the face of such a beauty!"

When Mo Qiu did not pay attention, Luo Jianqing slapped him with sword scabbard

Mo Qiu said, "You!"

Luo Jianqing replied, "Cultivator Mo please behave yourself."

When Luo Jianqing was talking, the cinnabar mole between his eyebrows twinkled.

Half a year later, there was another violent astral wind. Not expecting they will encounter astral wind again, these two people hid into the cave under the ground again like a drowned mouse. This time it was Mo Qiu who took control of the Earth Level heaven-demon huge formation, he controlled it in an extremely skill way, which made Luo dazzled.

In the channel, Mo Qiu said, "The gate of Liuyan valley had opened a few months ago, but we did not come out. Mo clan might thought I have died. How about the people of Taihua Mountain, is anyone waiting for you? That person must be nervous seeing you did not come back.

A figure in white suddenly flashed across his mind, Luo Jianqing looked down and felt a slight pain in his heart. After a moment, he said, "Nobody is waiting. But my life lamp is placed in Taihua Mountain, they know I am still alive.

Looking at the disappointed face of Luo Jianqing, Mo Qiu curled his lips in silence.

There were no seasons in the valley, nor the passing of time.

There was only a gust of astral wind semiannually. Luo Jianqing and Mo Qiu had already prepared for this and they would directly hide into the hole in the ground every time.

In the second year being trapped in the valley, Luo Jianqing reached the level of Late-stage Gold Core by virtue of the mighty spiritual power in Blood Spirit Fruits. To this, Mo Qiu said with a cold smile: "Congratulations."

Luo Jianqing was in a good mood and ignored the irony in his words.

Time flew away quickly just like this. And Luo Jianqing would approach the Burning River every day, intending to enhance himself under the pressure of it. But he failed every time and could not but returned. Strangely, Flame Beasts never attacked Mo Qiu when he wandered around the Burning in boredom.

Luo Jianqing said astonishingly: "Mo Qiu, why haven't you been attacked?"

Mo Qiuqiu joked expressionlessly: "My level is much higher than that of the stupid fire Demon Exalt of Heaven Level. I could kill him when it was alive. Now it was dead, how dare you speak of the level in front of me.?"

Luo gradually said speechlessly: "Would you die if you stopped boasting yourself, Fellow Cultivator Mo ??"

Mo Qiu sneered but did not answer.

In the valley, Luo Jianqing buried himself in the study of Nine Heavenly Seizure Record. He wondered if it were thanks to the Burning River that his cultivation base increased quickly. His body was like a dry sponge that absorbed the spiritual power in the Blood Spirit Fruits enormously.

In the third year, Luo Jianqing reached the level of Nascent Soul!

It broke the record of Xuan Lingzi. However, Luo Jianqing did not feel that happy. He stared at the Burning River silently, until Mo Qiu said with a smile: "You reached the level of Nascent Soul in less than 40 years and your nascent soul is so perfect. Good for you. Luo Jianqing, are my Blood Spirit Fruits useful?"

Luo Jianqing murmured: "Mo Qiu, we really cannot leave here?"

Mo Qiu stopped talking suddenly. After a while, he took out a jade boat from his Interspatial Ring. The boat was exquisite but could only accommodate three people. It shonea cold glisten and bogged down the Burning River for a moment once it landed in the river. It seemed that the river was intimidated by it.

Mo Qiu said: "It’s called Clod Jade Heaven Boat. I found out earlier that, every time the astral wind blew over, the Burning River would calm down for a quarter of an hour. As long as we could get out of the valley at that period, we might be able to escape here."

Luo Jianqing looked at the boat in surprise, and asked after a while: "...you could leave here long time ago, right?"

Mo Qiu answered with a smile, "What! You think that I can leave by myself?"

Luo Jianqing nodded heavily: "Yes. You are not afraid of the Burning River, and you have magic tools of Heaven Level." As long as there is no astral wind, you can leave as you like even without the so-called quarter of an hour.

However, Mo Qiu raised his brow and said: "You think too much, Luo Jianqing of Taihua Mountain. What if I came across something more horrible than the astral wind as soon as I get out of the valley? You are now in the level of Nascent Soul, and that’s what I need. Well, the astral wind will come again three days later. Let’s make preparations and get out of the valley as soon as it dies down! "

Luo Jianqing cast an unfathomable look at Mo Qiu, and took out a white jade tablet from his Interspatial Ring. He dropped a drop of his blood on it, and gave it to Mo Qiu, saying: "Fellow Cultivator, thanks for helping me get out of the valley and your waiting. The tablet is a treasure that I got from a relic. I have discharged the contract on it just now and it is a material without owner. With this tablet, you can move to places thousands of miles away for escaping in a blink."

Without hesitation, Mo Qiu accepted the jade tablet. He looked at it with a smile and then took out a small blood red bell from his sleeve. When Mo Qiu shook it, it did not make any sound. How strange!

Mo Qiu said: "What a coincidence. This is called Devil-sounded Bell. I refined it in boredom. It has no other use. But if you put it near your heart, I can hear the bell ring as long as I am within thousands of miles when you are in danger. And I might come to rescue you if I were in a good mood."

Then Mo Qiu threw the Devil-sounded Bell to Luo Jianqing.

Luo Jianqing stared at the exquisite bell with a complicated expression and remained still for quite a while.

Mo Qiudao: "Are you afraid that I’m gonna hurt you? Whatever, I may not be necessarily happy to save you..."

Mo Qiu stopped talking abruptly when seeing Luo Jianqing thrusting the bell into his heart at one blow.

When the bell entered the body, the cinnabar mole between Luo Jianqing’s eyebrows flashed a while.

Mo Qiu opened his eyes widely and saw the cultivator in cyan robe smiling slightly. His smile was as shiny as the spring morning and the moon light, and his voice seemed to come from the heaven: "Mo Qiu, you said before that you have numerous ways to kill me even if you can't move"

"You actually believe that?"

Luo Jianqing’s smile became more vigorously, which made him seem more handsome. "Yes, I do. You have too many secrets. You know it is the ninth layer of the Liu Yan Valley, and you know the so-called wind Demon Exalt and fire Demon Exalt. Although you were born in the barren cold desert, you own magic tools of Heaven Level that I have never seen before. You can even condense devil Qi before reaching the level of Nascent Soul."

Pausing for a while, Luo Jianqing said with a smile: "Since you did not kill me in the past, I believe that you will not kill me in the future. At least you will not kill me with this Devil-sounded Bell. Three-year friendship in the Liu Yan Valley is enough to make me believe you and… to make us sworn friends for life and death."

Mo Qiu changed his expression on the face for a few times and smiled finally: "Sworn friends for life and death?"

Luo Jianqing nodded: "Yes."

Mo Qiu spoke again: "I’m a Feign Cultivator."

Luo Jianqing smiled: "I knew."

Mo Qiu raised his eyebrows: "Since you knew that, why you still want to be my sworn friend for life and death? Aren’t you afraid being condemned by the other Dao Cultivators?"

Luo Jianqing shook his head and said: "Who said the Dao Cultivators are all good people? And who said that the way of Dao is the only right way, and the way of Feign is wrong? There is no absolute line between rightness and wrongness. Even my elders would make mistakes in his life. And the Devil Exalt in the Palace of Devils might also do things living up to his original heart. It is Luo Jianqing who is making friends with you now, but not the first disciple of Taihua Mountain or the so called Dao Cultivator. Mo Qiu, I am nobody but Luo Jianqing."

Hearing Luo Jianqing’s words, Mo Qiu showed a strange expression on his face but smiled finally: "Given your words, you are my sworn friends for life and death!"

The two laughed together.

Three days later, another astral wind blew over.

The two hid in the tunnel and escaped. Then they ran to the Burning River quickly. Mo Qiu took out the boat of Heaven Leven and they looked at each other.

"Now!"
