Chapter 126 I'm Too Incompetent
Su Shagui and Xie Mingzhu ran away, but Xie Liuyin still wanted to go up the mountain to look for treasure.
However, she didn't plan to go now. After all, it would probably take a few days for the treasure to be truly born.
If Xie Liuyin went to grab it now, it would be no different from fighting in a boxing ring.
If she was lucky enough to defeat other monsters, what she would have to face next would be the almost endless stream of monsters rushing here, as well as other cultivators who had their eyes on the treasure.
Xie Liuyin was not stupid, so of course she didn't want to be a living target. Anyway, her main purpose of entering the secret realm this time was to weaken Xie Mingzhu's strength and snatch her trump card.
Before he was strong enough, Xie Liuyin didn't mind using some tricks, as all is fair in war.
She continued to lie dormant in the space, quietly waiting for a turn of events on the top of the mountain.
The monsters are the most sensitive creatures in the entire secret realm. The special aura on the top of the snowy mountain constantly lures them here, and they fight frantically.
The unusual movements of the monsters naturally attracted the attention of the monks.
Many monks who knew the inside story of the Juelan Secret Realm and had received the mission of finding the treasure from their masters or sect leaders, understood at the first moment that the changes must be related to the treasure.
They followed the traces of other monsters and gradually found this snowy mountain.
Xie Mingzhu, who was resting at the foot of the mountain, was originally afraid of the snow-capped mountains and did not dare to get any closer.
But when he saw so many people coming to snatch his things, he became anxious.
She urged Sushagui to go to the top of the mountain and help her intercept other monks.
Su Shagui rejected her directly: "I'm sorry, Mingzhu, I can't do what you ask. Not to mention that I suppressed my cultivation to enter the secret realm. There are so many cultivators, many of whom are in the foundation-building stage."
"Even if I am stronger than them, with so many people gathered together, even one move from each person can crush me to death."
When Xie Mingzhu heard his refusal, she immediately became angry: "What do you mean, didn't you say you liked me? Why can't you even help me with such a small thing?"
"That's not what I meant, Mingzhu. I just want to discuss with you. Let's wait a little longer. After those cultivators and monsters are both defeated, wouldn't it be better for us to go out and catch the cicada?" Sushagui persuaded patiently.
Knowing that he was not unwilling to help her, Xie Mingzhu's expression became better.
"Okay, then let's do as you say. Let's wait and see what happens." Xie Mingzhu responded reluctantly.
The two made a simple agreement and then, like Xie Liuyin, found a safe place to hide, waiting for the fight on the top of the mountain to come to an end.
The monsters killed ferociously, and the monks were also ruthless.
But after half a day, the smell of blood that could only be smelled halfway up the mountain had already spread to the foot of the mountain.
Xie Mingzhu, who was worried that her treasure would be taken by others, noticed this and couldn't help but urge Su Shagui: "Brother Su Sha, should we go to the top of the mountain to take a look? Maybe it's not dangerous now."
"The treasure has not yet been fully unveiled, and its aura is spreading in all directions. I estimate that many people will be attracted by this aura. What has appeared now is just a small dish, and there will probably be more people later. Let's wait a little longer."
Xie Mingzhu, who was rejected by Su Shagui again, felt more resentful.
In her previous life, Xie Mingzhu didn’t know the true location of the treasure. She came to the snowy mountains under the protection of several men, chasing a group of monsters.
There was not much time left before the secret realm was closed, and when they arrived, the big fight between the monks and the monsters was almost over.
The remaining monsters basically had no chance of fighting against the cultivators, and the spiritual power of those cultivators was almost exhausted.
So Xie Mingzhu and her group got a great bargain and got the treasure without much effort.
The men were very protective of Xie Mingzhu, their sweetheart. Not only did they not compete with her for the treasure, they also helped her conceal the matter.
After they left the secret realm, no one knew who got the treasure.
But in this life, because of Xie Mingzhu's rebirth, many things are different from what he remembers.
After she entered the secret realm, she first had unpleasant experiences with several fellow disciples of the Qingxiao Sect, and then she fell out with Si Yu.
The series of misfortunes made Xie Mingzhu inevitably worried, fearing that her opportunity would be snatched away by others.
That's why she was so anxious and asked Yan Xiujun to bring her to the snow mountain.
But now Si Yu is not here, and Yan Xiujun is in trouble, so only Su Shagui is left to guard her, but his strength is not enough to fight against those monsters and cultivators.
Xie Mingzhu felt as if her heart was being roasted on fire and she was extremely upset.
Hearing Su Shagui repeatedly rejecting his requests, Xie Mingzhu became more and more angry.
"Wait a little longer again! Every time I make a request, you ask me to wait a little longer. But if I wait any longer, what if the things on the mountain are snatched away by others?!" Xie Mingzhu couldn't help but get angry at Su Shagui.
When Su Shagui heard the last sentence, a dark light flashed in his eyes: "Mingzhu, don't be angry, it's all my fault, I'm too incompetent. Why don't you tell me what it is you want, and I'll go to the top of the mountain alone to bring it back for you?"
Xie Mingzhu opened his mouth and was about to tell Su Shagui about the treasure.
But soon, her mind cleared up for a moment, and she immediately reacted and shut up.
"No, it's hard to say about this thing. It's better for me to get it myself." Xie Mingzhu turned her head away and didn't look at Su Shagui.
Even though Xie Mingzhu regarded Su Shagui as her admirer, she also believed that this man would protect her with his life as he did in her previous life.
But Xie Mingzhu still felt that such an important treasure could not be handed over to anyone, not even Sushagui.
You have to know that in her previous life, she was able to catch up with Xie Liuyin's cultivation speed with her imperfect spiritual roots, all because of that treasure.
This is something indispensable for her future ascension to the higher realms, and it must not be taken by others!
Su Shagui was rejected so straightforwardly by Xie Mingzhu, but there was no sad expression on his face, he just said regretfully:
"In that case, I don't know what to do. The mountain is too dangerous. It doesn't matter if I get hurt, but I'm really afraid that I can't protect you, Mingzhu."
Reminded by his words, Xie Mingzhu finally remembered the scene of herself being attacked by the ferocious monster.
She shuddered all over, and the little courage she had mustered immediately disappeared.
"Forget it, let's wait a little longer. But you must keep a close eye on the top of the mountain. When those guys have almost finished fighting, you must take me up as soon as possible!" Xie Mingzhu finally accepted her fate.
Su Shagui smiled slightly and nodded at her seriously: "Don't worry, if there is any change on the mountain, I will tell you the first time and then take you up."
After getting Su Shagui's promise, Xie Mingzhu let the matter go for the time being.
