Chapter 742 744 Purple Light Spot
The Sky-Swallowing Sea Crocodile that she used as a bodyguard is dead. If Rong Xianxian wants to pass through this sea area safely, she can only return to the flying boat. Although she has already positioned herself on the flying boat, the jade talisman has a distance limit and the sea area is full of dangers. If Hou Yu is willing to give her a ride, it will undoubtedly save her a lot of trouble.
Seeing that Hou Yu only collected the corpses of two level seven monsters and had no interest in the other sea beast corpses that were scattered all over the sea below, Rong Xianxian suddenly thought of something and quickly took out two golden soul-catching bells. She fired them with her soul power to search for the souls of the two level seven monsters. She only had four golden soul-catching bells in her hands, which was the entire inventory of the New Martial Arts Academy at that time. She didn't expect that she would actually use them today.
Hou Yu stayed there for a while, looked around, then lowered her head to look at her palm, silently calculating, as if she was trying to determine the direction. Soon, she flew up with her sword, as if she was about to leave.
When Rong Xianxian saw that she was about to leave and noticed that the golden Soul-Catching Bell had lit up, indicating that the beast soul had been caught, she didn't bother to think too much and immediately put away the Soul-Catching Bell and the Water-Repellent Beads and floated out of the sea. "Uncle Hou!" Rong Xianxian greeted him with some surprise. Although addressing him like this might seem like an attempt to get close to him, she was the one who needed help after all, so Rong Xianxian's tone was sincere.
Hou Yu was stunned by the sudden voice. She turned her head suspiciously and looked in the direction of Rong Xianxian.
Rong Xianxian was too hasty when she removed the water-repellent beads, and her hair and clothes were stained with blood, making her look a little disheveled.
On the Tiangong Mountain flying boat, Hou Yu had a distinguished status and attracted a lot of attention, but Rong Xianxian was just an ordinary passenger, an inconspicuous little transparent person. How could Hou Yu know her? Seeing Hou Yu frowning and thinking, Rong Xianxian immediately realized that she didn't know her, and hurriedly introduced herself, "Uncle Hou, I am a friend of your nephew Mu Qingfan. I used to grill meat on the flying boat with an iron plate, and you liked me so much that you gave me the Hidden Sword Jade Ring as a gift. Now I am trapped here, with no way to go forward or backward, and I would like to ask Uncle Hou to give me a ride."
After Rong Xianxian said this, she felt uneasy. The timing and location of her appearance were very bad. Hou Yu had just killed two level seven monsters here, and she happened to appear here. How could such a coincidence not make people think too much?
"It's you. The meat you grilled last time was delicious. Can you cook snake meat?" Hou Yu didn't seem to care why Rong Xianxian appeared here, and had no intention of interrogating her.
"Yes!" Rong Xianxian nodded in response.
"That's good, let's go!" Hou Yu flicked her hand, and the sword light under her feet suddenly surged. Rong Xianxian understood what she meant, jumped out of the water, activated the Ice Soul Pearl, used the power of ice to freeze her wet hair and clothes dry, and jumped behind her.
Not long after Rong Xianxian was pushed off the flying boat, Ren Chong and others discovered that she was missing. Although Rong Xianxian considered herself an ordinary person and insignificant, Mu Qingfan knew that his master was a little afraid of Rong Xianxian's background. He immediately reported the matter to his master and launched an investigation. Once anything is done, it is impossible for there to be no traces, so it didn't take long for the matter to be investigated clearly.
Of course, they were not investigating this matter in order to rescue Rong Xianxian. In fact, they believed that the place where Rong Xianxian fell off the flying boat was not far from the location of the Swallowing Cloud Sea Crocodile, and the chance of her survival was not high. They just thought that if Rong Xianxian's master came to investigate in the future, they would have an explanation. After all, she fell into the water on their flying boat. If they didn't find the culprit, they would be held primarily responsible for this matter.
Of course, it would be best if Rong Xianxian was safe and sound.
Hou Yu quickly found the flying boat on his flying sword. After returning to the flying boat, Hou Yu took Rong Xianxian directly to find Master Sumu, "Senior brother, I have already dealt with the Belly-Rolling Snake and the Swallowing Cloud Sea Crocodile. I also met Miss Rong who was pushed off the flying boat before. I brought her to you. Do you have anything to say? I'll go back first!" Hou Yu handed Rong Xianxian to his senior brother and turned to leave.
Master Sumu smiled and asked Rong Xianxian to sit down beside him. It was impossible for Miss Rong to survive in the dangerous sea for such a long time without delaying her journey and appear in the sea where the Swallowing Cloud Sea Crocodile and the Belly Singing Snake were fighting. But what the junior sister said must be correct. How did she survive?
"Miss Rong, since you are safe and sound, the Lan brothers who pushed you off the flying boat and chased you should be dead, right?" Master Sumu asked with a smile.
"I did kill the two people who were chasing me!" Rong Xianxian nodded.
"Miss Rong, what happened on our flying boat is our responsibility at Tiangong Mountain. To express our apology, we will return double the boat fare you paid before, and give you some small gifts as compensation. The Lan brothers are being directed by someone behind the scenes, and Miss Rong must be aware of this. I can guarantee that they won't have the chance to attack again before we arrive at Kaiyuan Continent. Once we arrive at Kaiyuan Continent and get off the flying boat, you can settle the grudge between the two sides on your own!" Master Sumu placed a storage bag in front of Rong Xianxian.
In addition to cultivators, there are also many ordinary people on the flying boat. If the two parties fight on the flying boat, if ordinary people are accidentally injured, it will be the responsibility of Tiangong Mountain.
"Okay, I understand!" Rong Xianxian agreed obediently. She had just been rescued by Hou Yu. This old man was Hou Yu's senior brother, and his strength was unfathomable. She didn't have the strength to resist now.
As soon as Rong Xianxian came out from Master Sumu, she was called away by Hou Yu. Hou Yu had eaten the meat of level seven monsters before, but the spiritual energy contained in the meat of level seven monsters was not as strong as the grilled meat Rong Xianxian made last time. Therefore, Hou Yu was very much looking forward to the food made by Rong Xianxian using level seven monsters.
However, the snake soup she made this time disappointed her. Although it was delicious enough, the spiritual energy it contained was almost the same as the barbecue last time. It seemed that the method Rong Xianxian could use to preserve the spiritual energy of the ingredients had a limit, and it was of no use to the seventh-level monster.
After realizing this, Hou Yu no longer paid attention to Rong Xianxian.
After Rong Xianxian came back, she spent most of her time in her room practicing under the pretext of recuperating from her injuries, delving into alchemy and intermediate talisman techniques. She would only come out to take a look when there was a major turmoil outside.
After falling into the sea, Rong Xianxian used the Soul-Devouring Sword Spirit Seed to engage in a battle of soul and spirit with the Swallowing Cloud Sea Crocodile. She was almost completely destroyed, and was only able to turn the danger around with the help of the "Soul Containing Sutra" and a large supply of soul jades. After waking up, Rong Xianxian checked her sea of consciousness and discovered that there were many purple spots of light flowing in her golden sea of consciousness.
