When leaving Jianliangshan Cave, Chen Xiao kept his promise and spared the lives of these evil cultivators, but let Xiao Junjie tie the captives up like dumplings.
Although the rope is tied very tightly, it poses little threat to practitioners as long as it is not a magical weapon.
He did this just to show his attitude, and the evil cultivators really understood what he meant. They stayed still until they left the range of Jian Liangshan.
With a specific direction, Chen Xiao and his companions walked along the mountain range.
Along the way, they tried their best to avoid densely populated areas and had to sleep in the wild without any supplies.
Xiao Junjie and his men had made a misjudgment and were not well prepared, so they had eaten up all their rations long ago. If they had not replenished some food in Jian Liangshan's cave, they would have run out of ammunition and food long ago.
In order to save food, Xiao Junjie and his companions had to take turns hunting.
These three practitioners from Xuwu were spoiled by the highly developed training service industry chain of Taoist practitioners, and they looked like city dwellers wandering in the wilderness to survive. The prey they caught was handled extremely roughly, and the preparation methods were also very simple, so the taste and texture were naturally not very good.
While the three of them were having a hard time eating food that was either undercooked or too dry and hard, they had to endure the delicious food carefully prepared by the master and his apprentice.
Chen Xiao originally had a good skill in barbecue, and later he also developed the skill of making soup.
At the beginning, Huang Keran’s craftsmanship was not very good, so Chen Xiao did it himself in order to have a good taste.
Later, when Huang Keran learned it, Chen Xiao began to live a life of ease.
Chen Xiao came from a land of gourmet food, so naturally he has high requirements for food.
When he was in Zigui, he paid attention to collecting spices, and when he encountered unfamiliar plants, he would taste them. He had detoxification pills on him, and with the strong physique of a cultivator, he was not afraid of being poisoned.
Huang Keran's cooking skills have been honed to a higher level under the high standards of his master. Chen Xiao even believes that his apprentice can open a restaurant and make a big career out of it, even if he doesn't become a Feng Shui master.
Huang Keran felt that his master's idea was unreasonable. After all, it was impossible for him to stop being a Feng Shui master and become a chef!
Xiao Junjie and the other two watched eagerly as Master Chen Xiao and his apprentice ate. The meal included soup, vegetables, meat, and even potatoes which could serve as a staple food.
All of this was brought back by Huang Keran after he went around the area after they set up camp.
They were able to follow Chen Xiao, which was already a sign of his tolerance. There was no reason for them to shamelessly eat for free. Besides, the status difference between the two parties was too great, so Xiao Junjie didn't dare to do that.
While Huang Keran was cleaning up, Xiao Junjie quietly approached him and whispered, "I see that the ingredients and seasonings you use for cooking are all obtained from the wild. I wonder if Brother Huang Daoist can give me some pointers so that I can learn from him?"
Huang Keran smiled at Xiao Junjie in a friendly manner and said, "It's just some common sense in the mountains. Since you want to learn, let's go together next time we camp."
Xiao Junjie showed a grateful expression and said, "Thank you, fellow Taoist!"
Xiao Junjie wanted to get closer to both parties, while Huang Keran hadn't met another immortal cultivator in decades. With both parties willing to meet, the atmosphere was very good and the conversation was very pleasant.
However, Chen Xiao had no interest in communicating with anyone. He was absent-mindedly fiddling with the campfire, his mind no longer here.
After Xiao Junjie and his companions got separated from the main force, they strayed too far from the direction of the Immortal Palace. Chen Xiao and a few others walked for three or four days before they returned to the correct route.
There was no need to judge whether the direction was correct. Just from the sudden increase in the number of times they encountered evil cultivators, they knew that this was the road.
On this road, evil practitioners who wanted to kill people, steal treasures or become famous formed layers of blockades, making it difficult to move forward.
They fought another battle with the evil cultivator who showed up. Except for Chen Xiao, everyone else was injured to varying degrees, even Huang Keran was no exception.
Chen Xiao looked at his apprentice's face, which looked a little pale due to blood loss, and said, "We won't go forward any further. Let's retreat!"
"Senior, are we just giving up like this?" Xiao Junjie said unwillingly.
Chen Xiao looked at him deeply and said, "Only when people know themselves can they go further. Moreover, my goal has never been Chongshan Palace. If you still want to go to that palace, you can go there. I won't stop you."
He knew what Xiao Junjie was thinking. He just wanted to enjoy the shade under the big tree. If he could be lucky enough to enter the Immortal Palace, they could also benefit from it.
Xiao Junjie was embarrassed for a moment when his secret thoughts were exposed, and then he quickly said, "The younger generations have already recognized their own abilities, and no longer dare to have any delusions. We just hope to return safely."
Fang Shimin and Liu Heng were even more afraid of being left behind, so they also said, "We swear to stand together with our predecessors!"
Just as Chen Xiao retreated and found a place far away from the blockade to squat, waiting for the next wave of road repairmen to complete their journey together, Xi Yunting walked slowly and approached the fortress belonging to Guangji in Luobei Tianjing.
On this day, the wind and sand were particularly strong. Xi Yunting wore a veil hat to block the wind and sand, and the black gauze scarf made his expression even more unpredictable.
When the evil cultivators in the fortress discovered that there was a Taoist cultivator approaching, and there was only one of them, they felt deeply insulted.
In recent days, every time the Taoists break through the barriers, they either come in groups or hundreds of people. This Taoist dares to break through alone, and he is so blatant. He is too disrespectful!
The evil cultivator angered by Xi Yunting rushed out of the fortress and attacked him.
Xi Yunting lowered his eyes, not even looking at them. Seeing that he was about to succeed, the evil cultivators laughed in their hearts, thinking that he was a fool.
However, he only saw a flash of light with golden glow in the silver, and more than thirty evil cultivators who rushed in front of him were beheaded.
An alarm sounded in the fortress. Xi Yunting raised his face with a dazed look in his eyes. Then he calmed himself down, held the sword in his hand, and flew into the crowd.
Luobei is his sad place. If it weren't for the last resort, Xi Yunting really didn't want to set foot there.
You can imagine how bad his mood is at the moment. It is also unlucky for these evil cultivators to come to him to be their punching bags.
More than ten miles behind, Zhao Fang was filled with admiration as he watched Xi Yunting single-handedly slaughter the people of Guangji Fortress.
"Brother, shouldn't we go over and help?" Chang Shou asked anxiously, "There is only one uncle, and there are too many evil cultivators."
Chang Shou's talent was too good. In just a few decades, he not only recovered his lost cultivation, but also made breakthroughs one after another, and now he is already in the Nascent Soul stage. In terms of cultivation, Zhao Fang, who is quite diligent, is only in the Golden Core stage now, but he is much better than Chang Shou in terms of seniority, qualifications and experience.
During this trip, Chang Shou was reminded by his master not to be impulsive and to ask Zhao Fang more questions.
Zhao Fang sighed and said, "We may not know whether we can help or cause trouble if we go over there, so we should not distract our uncle from other matters. We should just stay here and watch him show his might."
Zhao Fang was worried.
In the sect, he is recognized as the third-generation disciple who is closest to Uncle Xi. He himself also feels that compared to other disciples, he can communicate with Uncle Xi the best.
Therefore, he was particularly worried at this moment. He didn't understand why the higher-ups sent Uncle Xi to take care of the affairs for the Tai Sheng Dean, when it was obvious that he could handle all these trivial matters.
Contrary to their worried expressions, Tai Sheng was not worried at all when Xi Yunting fought against a hundred people alone. He was even in the mood to take this opportunity to broaden the horizons of his disciples: "After the sword cultivation domain is fully developed, it can be said that it is invincible. No matter what methods these evil cultivators have, they will be suppressed in the domain. Your uncle Xi can get close to you if he wants, or far away if he wants. It seems that those evil cultivators are rushing to you, but in fact they are just automatically sending their vital points to the tip of the sword."
Zhao Fang looked at Tai Sheng helplessly and said, "Master, we should leave now. If we are slow, we will be blocked by the evil cultivators who came after hearing the news."
Tai Sheng patted his forehead and said, "Well, let's go. Yun Ting is in a bad mood right now and won't wait for us."
Even though they were fast enough, they were still one step behind Xi Yunting. By the time they entered the fortress, Xi Yunting had already passed through the vortex portal.
Tai Sheng's heart tightened, fearing that something might happen to Xi Yunting and he wouldn't be able to explain to Tai Su.
He ordered sternly: "Be alert and prepare for battle!"
Tai Sheng led his disciples through the vortex portal, and there was already chaos here.
The vortex portal is usually not far from the main city, and Guangji's is no exception. Xi Yunting alone set off a bloody storm, and half of the evil masters in the city were alarmed by him.
Tai Sheng didn't dare to let his nephew fight alone anymore, so he ordered his disciples to form a battle formation and not to be left alone, and then he went forward to share the responsibility of fighting half of the enemies.
"Yun Ting, don't fight too long!" He sent a voice message to Xi Yun Ting, "This is the evil cultivator's lair. If you delay too long, you will only suffer!"
Xi Yunting didn't say anything, but just nodded slightly to indicate that he heard it.
If Tai Sheng hadn't been keeping a close eye on him, he would have missed it.
Huh - letting out a sigh silently, Tai Sheng couldn't help but feel that Junior-Disciple Xi alone was more difficult to deal with than a group of disciples.
The Chongxuan Sect selected elite troops this time, each of them has extraordinary combat power.
The combat effectiveness of dozens of people is stronger than the team of hundreds of people gathered by the Equipment Refiners Alliance.
As the fight went on, more and more masters were killed or injured. The evil cultivators on the opposite side became frightened and wished that these people would leave quickly!
By the time Tai Sheng and his men rushed out of the city wall, there was no one chasing them.
After running for another ten miles, Tai Sheng stopped and ordered Zhao Fang to check if anyone was missing.
The situation just now was so chaotic that even Tai Sheng was a little confused. It was inevitable that some disciples were dizzy and fell behind.
After Zhao Fang had counted the people, he came over and said to Tai Sheng, "Master, everyone is here, except for Uncle Master Xi."
Tai Sheng was a little surprised and asked, "Why? Didn't Junior Brother Xi break out with us?" He turned to his disciples, "Did anyone of you see him?"
Chang Shou said: "Master, I saw Uncle Xi. He broke out earlier than us."
Tai Sheng said: "Then don't worry, he has been one step ahead of us all the way."
But he didn't expect that Xi Yunting would disappear as soon as he left this time. He sent a communication talisman but received no response. This made Tai Sheng angry and anxious. This team was too difficult to lead!
