As a silkpants young master whose Jiangzhou and even the entirety of its fame, Tang Qiubai had always been bowing and groveling in front of Su Bai, but deep down, he was still arrogant and proud. Even though Hee Mingxu's status was not low, compared to Tang Qiubai and the others, his identity and background were not enough.
Hee Mingxu's face surged with anger, but he suppressed it back down and took a deep breath, "Young Master Tang, your joke is too big..."
Tang Qiubai frowned: "Who's joking? I told you to apologize, didn't you understand? "
Hee Mingxu's face changed between red and white, he looked towards Xie Angqi and the others, begging for help, but saw that none of them seemed to have seen anything, which made him even more stifled.
He could not afford to offend this Tang Qiubai, but seeing him as a fox or a tiger, Su Bai was a target of his hatred.
"Mr. Su, I'm sorry!"
Su Bai indifferently glanced at him, then ignored him. This kind of playboy wasn't worth him paying attention to.
Seeing his indifferent expression, Hee Mingxu felt even worse, as if he had eaten a fly. His face was ashen, but he did not dare flare up.
Very soon, Xie Angqi came out and said a few words, causing him to finally no longer feel that awkward.
"Since Mr. Su has proposed to set off immediately, does anyone have any objections?" Xie Angqi asked with a smile, and in the end, her gaze landed on Ji Hao.
Ji Hao chuckled and said: "Miss Xie doesn't need to look at me. I will listen to your opinion."
Xie Angqi's expression changed slightly, and quickly returned to a smiling face, saying: "Then let's go."
… …
Two hours later, they stopped at the foot of Mountain Langya.
After driving for a few hours straight, Xie Angqi and the others were starting to get tired, but Su Bai, Xia Qianyu and Mr. Yin were still full of energy.
A lean man greeted Xie Angqi and the others, then said to the rest: "Everyone, although the Mountain Langya has been developed quite a bit, it is still very dangerous to go deeper in. There are a lot of snakes and scorpions in the deep mountains, so everyone must be careful!"
"Old Chang, don't worry!" The guy in our hands is not someone to be trifled with. Hehe, I really want to meet a tiger or leopard! " Hee Mingxu was fully dressed, with a hunting rifle and a bow on his back.
Xie Angqi frowned, and said: "Everyone pay attention to your safety, let's go now!"
Su Bai and Tang Qiubai followed behind the group leisurely. Xia Qianyu turned his head a few times, but in the end, he did not walk over. Su Bai also pretended not to see it, which made Xia Qianyu so angry that the roots of his teeth started to itch.
"Gu Gu …"
Everyone went deeper in, and other than the sounds of stepping on dried branches and leaves, there was only the sound of birds chirping. Hee Mingxu followed behind Xie Angqi, perspiring profusely, as if he had lost all of his previous ambition.
Xie Angqi and the rest were also breathing rapidly, their faces were slightly red, it was obvious that they were from wealthy families, and lacked training.
The skinny old man looked at Xie Angqi and said: "Miss Xie, why not young master, do you want to rest a bit?"
Xie Angqi clenched her teeth and said: "No need, continue walking."
Hee Mingxu's face turned bitter, he regretted following them. In order to pick up girls, he had paid too much of a price.
Tang Qiubai said with a face full of ridicule: "What, wasn't Young Master He still so arrogant just now? How did he become a dead dog in such a short time? "Haha …" After he finished speaking, he followed Su Bai and left in big strides.
Hee Mingxu's face turned from red to white, but he did not dare retort and only snorted coldly, gritting his teeth as he followed along.
According to Xie Angqi's request, he did not even bring a bodyguard, how could she be in such a sorry state?
After walking for another three to four hours, the trees in the mountain became even taller and covered the sky. Aside from the dead branches and fallen leaves, not a single bird could be seen, making the forest even more desolate.
Seeing this, Hee Mingxu's heart was even more bitter, he wanted nothing more than to return home.
Old Chang wiped the sweat off his forehead and observed his surroundings: "Everyone, we will rest here for the night. Tomorrow, we will officially enter the inner mountains!"
"Ah?" After walking so far, you still haven't entered the inner mountains? " Hee Mingxu's face was filled with despair.
Xie Angqi nodded her head, and said: "Then let's do as Instructor Chang says!"
Very soon, the bodyguards behind her took out tents, barbecues, food and other ingredients from their backpacks and began to set up camp.
Zheng Ronghe, Xia Qianyu and the others also started to set up their tents. Only Su Bai and Tang Qiubai stood in their original positions in a daze.
As if he had noticed Su Bai's predicament, Xia Qianyu, who had set up the tent, laughed: "Su Bai, you didn't bring anything, right? Do you want me to stay for the night? "
The corner of Su Bai's mouth twitched, he glanced at her and said: "No need!"
"Humph!" I'm just teasing you, but you're not willing to let me stay! " Xia Qianyu glared at Su Bai, and while humming a small tune, she fiddled with the barbecue rack, said to Tang Qiubai: "Young Master Tang, do you want to come along?"
Tang Qiubai was startled, he subconsciously looked at Su Bai, seeing his expressionless face, he laughed awkwardly: "I-I'll accompany Mr. Su!"
"Tch!" Xia Qianyu gave him the middle finger.
Seeing this, Zheng Ronghe's face became even more gloomy. The relationship between Xia Qianyu and herself was indeed not shallow.
When everyone finished camping, they saw Su Bai and Tang Qiubai finding a large leaf from an unknown place and spreading it on the ground. Just like an old monk, they sat down cross legged.
Xie Angqi was surprised, she laughed: "Mr. Su, my bodyguard still has spare tents, do you two want to make do with it?"
Su Bai did not even open his eyes, and said indifferently: "No need."
Xie Angqi did not say much and started to call his bodyguards to help them with their dinner.
Hee Mingxu and Zheng Ronghe both had cold smiles on their faces as they looked at Su Bai.
Very quickly, the smell of meat floated over. Su Bai was still alright, but Tang Qiubai who was sitting cross-legged had suffered from the pain, and after walking for an entire afternoon, he was already tired and hungry. If not for Su Bai, he would have already ran over to Xie Angqi's side to drink and eat meat.
"Gulp, gulp ~ ~"
Hearing the protest from Tang Qiubai's stomach, the corner of Su Bai's mouth revealed a smile, and said: "Young Master Tang, go eat some, don't worry about me."
Tang Qiubai shook his head resolutely and said: "Mr. Su doesn't need to persuade me. Since mister can persevere, I definitely can as well. If I can't even endure this little bit of hunger, how can I talk about the Great Way of the Immortal?"
Su Bai looked at him in astonishment, smiled slightly, and did not speak any further.
During this time, Xie Angqi sent some people over to bring some barbecue meat and canned fruits, but Su Bai rejected them immediately. This made her a little unhappy, but in his opinion, Su Bai was just acting too haughtily.
Ji Hao and Mr. Yin were both cultivators, they also ate and slept, but this Su Bai insisted on acting alone. In this deep mountains and forests, not preserving his strength, he was simply courting death.
As the sky darkened, the mountain quickly became cold. Old Chang brought a few bodyguards to keep watch, Xie Angqi and the rest all went back to their tents to rest.
At this time, Tang Qiubai sat there, his face pale as paper, his breathing ragged and his entire body trembling, as though he had reached his limit.
Su Bai glanced at him, shook his head, and chuckled. He took out a Small Spirit Cultivating Pill from his bosom, crushed it into two, and casually threw half of it into the water, urging the true essence to refine it. A sweet smell immediately wafted into the air, Tang Qiubai's nose sniffed about, and he subconsciously opened his eyes.
Su Bai passed the cup to him and said: "Drink it."
Tang Qiubai naturally felt that this cup of 'water' was extraordinary and his expression became agitated, "Thank you Mr. Su!"
After he finished speaking, he picked up the cup of water and gulped it down.
Then, his face changed, "Mr. Su!"
"Don't say anything. Do as I say and release the Qi according to the formula!" Su Bai's expression did not change, his voice congregated to the point where it sounded next to his ears, causing his expression to instantly become incomparably excited. He knew that his great fortune had arrived!
