Chapter 34 The White Moonlight Kills the Male and Female Protagonists (34)

"Junior sister, you must have misheard. I didn't hear it either."

As cultivators, they are naturally sharp-eared and sharp-eyed; how could they not hear Jin Shu speaking from the other side?

Meng Ling was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, and almost jumped up and down while standing on the turtle's back.

"It was definitely there, right across the street! I heard it clearly!"

She beat me to it again.

Hurry up, you old monster, swim faster!

This could determine her fate.

If she finds the treasure, she can not only break through her current limitations but also capture Jin Shu and hand her over to the Queen Mother of the West, achieving two goals at once.

But if Jin Shu takes the item, she will not only be no match for Jin Shu, but will also have to go to the Queen Mother of the West to take the blame three days later!

Thinking about it this way, she became even more anxious.

She banged the turtle shells under her feet with her sword.

Jingye felt helpless and didn't know what to say, so she could only remain silent.

Fortunately, this old turtle has a good temper and won't get angry no matter how much he scolds her. As long as there's no danger, let Meng Ling make a fuss for a while.

"Bang!"

Another sword strike.

The turtle shell beneath my feet suddenly trembled violently.

Caught off guard, Jingye suddenly slipped and instinctively tried to use his spiritual power to steady himself, but found that his spiritual power was blocked in the middle of the swamp and he couldn't activate it no matter what he did.

Fortunately, Lianxin grabbed him, preventing him from falling.

"You turtle demon! What are you doing?!"

With a roar in the still night, the turtle demon beneath him suddenly turned around and then slowly sank downwards.

The three people leaning precariously on the shell were all startled by what they saw.

"What is this turtle demon trying to do?"

Meng Ling gripped Jing Ye's sleeve tightly and asked in a panic.

"Stop! You turtle demon, do you want to oppose the Immortal Realm?!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the descent speed increased, and soon the swamp water submerged his calves!

Seeing this, Lianxin looked around and found that the swamp was empty and there was nothing to rely on. Even if she wanted to tie something down, there was no foothold.

Flying there is the only way.

However, since his spiritual power was suppressed, he couldn't fly for very long even if he wanted to.

Not to mention that Meng Ling was injured, making it even more difficult for her to activate her spiritual power.

Seeing that they were about to sink, Jingye and Lianxin grabbed Mengling's arms on either side, used all their strength to push upwards, and then flew towards the shore.

Midway through the journey, he lost his strength in the still night and, just as he was about to reach the shore, he suddenly plummeted downwards.

Lotus Heart also fell down.

The three people fell into the swamp, unable to swim, as if a force was pulling them down from their feet.

At the critical moment, Meng Ling grabbed Jing Ye's clothes and climbed up with all her might, stepping on his shoulders and head, and used her spiritual power to rush towards the shore.

As for Jingye and Lianxin, who were kicked down by her, they were not so lucky. It was as if there was a huge suction force in the swamp beneath them, pulling them deeper into the swamp.

The two, already exhausted of spiritual energy, stared at Meng Ling before being quickly sucked into the swamp.

Seeing this, Meng Ling on the shore was so frightened that she retreated repeatedly, tears welling up in her eyes. It took her a long time to react before she lay on the shore in terror and helplessness, shouting loudly.

"Senior brother!! Senior brother!!"

Her response was the roar of a wild beast coming from the depths of the swamp.

Startled, Meng Ling shrank back and turned to run away without hesitation.

This place is terrifying.

She needs to ask her master for help.

He crushed his natal spirit stone, and the distress signal transformed into a wisp of green smoke that traveled straight to the Immortal Realm.

Standing not far away, Jin Shu looked up at the wisp of smoke disappearing and smiled silently.

It's good that Canglan has arrived.

This will be a good opportunity for these two to see what the demon race is like now.

Meng Ling dared not stay by the river, so she followed her instincts and walked into the woods.

As for Jingye and Lianxin, they are immortals after all, and even if they hold their breath underwater for a while, they won't be in immediate danger. There's nothing she can do, so she'll just have to wait for her master to come and save them.

She could sense a strong fluctuation of spiritual energy in front of her.

Once inside the woods, Meng Ling found it even more desolate than outside. After walking for a long time, she finally spotted a little girl dressed in coarse linen clothes with a dusty face under a small tree not far away.

The girl had two horns on her head, and Meng Ling could tell at a glance that she was a deer demon.

The vegetarian demon race was a cub, too weak to be touched, so Meng Ling disdained to make a move.

Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly saw a ginseng root tied with a red string in the girl's hand!

Ordinary ginseng is fine, but it's not exactly a good thing.

But the ginseng that made Meng Lingguang's blood boil at just one glance must be a good thing!

Meng Ling was both surprised and delighted to see such a precious treasure being played with by a weak little demon.

It's good that Xiao Yao is here, and it saves her a lot of effort.

"Little one, would you like to let your older sister see this?"

"don't want."

"I'll trade you this. This is a fruit from the celestial realm, much better than this worthless ginseng you have."

"If it's so good, why don't you eat it yourself? Why do you trade it with me for this worthless ginseng? Do you think I'm so easy to fool?"

"..."

I thought I could easily take it, but I never expected the other party to be so cunning.

Meng Ling's expression changed slightly.

She desperately needed a treasure to replenish her spiritual power. Since it was right in front of her, and it would be a waste for the little demon to take it, she might as well use it to nourish herself and heal her injuries.

Thinking this, Meng Ling reached out to grab it, but the little demon suddenly vanished in a flash. When she turned around to grab it again, the little demon suddenly shouted at the top of its lungs.

"Dad, Mom, someone is bullying me!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, two more deer demons emerged from the depths of the forest.

Seeing this, Meng Ling simply smiled coldly.

"If I were you, I would have just obediently sent the things away, instead of dragging my parents into this mess."

"Since that's the case, don't blame me for exorcising demons for the people!"

Meng Ling didn't want to waste time, so she drew her sword and stabbed the little demon directly. The little demon stood still, holding the ginseng, and its fearless attitude angered Meng Ling.

However, the lowly demon race dared to disrespect the immortal race!

Originally, I just wanted to teach her a lesson, but now it seems that if this demon is not eliminated, who knows how rampant she will become in the future!

Just as the sword was about to pierce through the little demon, the two great demons made their move. A barrier appeared out of thin air, but Meng Ling didn't take it seriously at all. Instead, she used all her strength to try and eliminate the two ignorant deer demons at the same time!

The next second.

"Bang--!!!"

A muffled thud was the sound of a body violently hitting the ground.

However, the voice did not come from the deer demon, but from Meng Ling.

When her sword touched the barrier, she was thrown back, sword and all, and rolled several times on the ground in a disheveled state. She was dizzy and disoriented when she finally stopped. Before she could even react to what had happened, the deer demon couple was already standing in front of her.

"If you hadn't used that much force, you wouldn't have been thrown that far."

Meng Ling was completely stunned by the fall.

She, a powerful expert at the peak of the middle realm, was actually defeated by two lowly deer demons.
