Chapter 7: Fruit Thief
After Mu Qi roasted 5 pigs, she didn't know where the dog had taken the other 4. She took advantage of the puppy being full and sleeping soundly and slipped away.
She never wanted to be its barbecuer again!
After grilling the meat all night, it was already dawn.
Mu Qi unknowingly ran to the inner area of the mountains.
She walked cautiously along the inner circle, feeling nervous and excited, holding the teleportation talisman in her hand, ready to escape at any moment out of fear.
As I was walking, I stepped on something hard and there was a creaking sound from the friction.
Mu Qi was horrified when she heard the voice. She looked down and was so scared that she quickly dodged away.
It was a third-level golden-armored scorpion. If she hadn't dodged quickly, she would have been stung by its stinger.
Mu Qi hesitated out of fear of death, but decided to give it a try.
He took a body-tempering pill and rushed forward to fight with the golden-armored scorpion.
As expected of a third-rank spiritual beast that was equal to that of an early Jindan stage, Mu Qi was beaten violently the moment she got close to it. Fortunately, she was not stung by the poisonous stinger, as all her attention was focused on dodging it.
At the same time, the Body Tempering Pill dissolved in her body, tempering her muscles and bones bit by bit while Mu Qi was being beaten. Mu Qi felt that the more she was beaten, the stronger her body became, and the pain was excruciating.
"Woof woof~" The little puppy came running over from somewhere.
When Mu Qi saw it, his eyes widened. He took out the teleportation talisman with a wooden face, tore it apart, and ran away immediately!
Damn!
She would rather be beaten than work as a barbecue worker!
God knows she was about to vomit after smelling the smell of black pig for 10 hours!
No matter how fragrant it is, I can’t resist smelling it for 10 hours!
After this teleportation, when Mu Qi opened his eyes again, there was a beautiful round fruit at the tip of his nose. It was the Holy Linglong Fruit which took a hundred years to mature. It was said that there was only one in the entire Chichuan Mountains. One had to be very lucky to come across one that was ripe at the right time. The aroma wafting out was so tempting that Mu Qi almost drooled.
"Oh no! Someone is trying to steal our fruit!" A woman's scream was heard amid the sound of fighting ahead.
Mu Qi looked up, and thanks to the knowledge of the immortal world instilled in her by the wandering cultivators in the original owner's memory, she immediately recognized that the group of people were wearing the uniforms of Yunxiao Palace disciples!
This group of people were surrounding a fifth-level saber-horned deer and continuously releasing skills. Everyone had a lot of injuries on his body.
Mu Qi took two seconds to analyze the situation and his face went numb.
The Holy Linglong Fruit in front of her was obviously the guardian fruit of the deer. She teleported to the fruit just by chance. With the unique advantage of being the one waiting behind, if she picked the fruit and tore off the teleportation talisman and ran away, it seemed that those people would not be able to stop her in time.
But she didn't intend to offend this group of people!
She stood up timidly, "Misunderstanding, I didn't mean to steal your fruit."
However, before she could walk away, the puppy appeared at her feet, bit Guodi leisurely, and then shook its tail and raised its head, holding Guodi in its mouth and looking up at Mu Qi with sparkling eyes.
The cheerful look seemed to be signaling Mu Qi to eat this good thing quickly.
"Shameless villain! Put down the Holy Linglong Fruit!" Obviously those people thought that the dog was Mu Qi's pet.
Mu Qi was really confused. How could there be such an ungrateful person?
Can't it see that she can't beat these people!
Why did he come here specifically to trick her!
If you can beat him, come on!
She took out another teleportation talisman and tore it up. However, just when Mu Qi thought she could continue running, she was still standing there stupidly.
Then I remembered what the shop owner said, that only one primary teleportation talisman can be used in a short period of time!
She gritted her teeth, it was so unfair!
She looked sternly at the deer that had suddenly gone wild because its fruit was taken away, and then at the people from Yunxiao Palace who were being beaten and suffering. She bent down, took the fruit out of the dog's mouth, and threw it at the group of people, "My fellow Taoists, I didn't raise this dog, I'll give the fruit back to you!"
Just when it was thrown halfway and the group of people on the opposite side were looking delighted, suddenly, the puppy ran up excitedly, jumped high up, and accurately bit the fruit stem in mid-air, then ran back to Mu Qi excitedly, raised his mouth upwards, and his tail wagging so hard that it almost disappeared.
Mu Qi:!!!
You fucking think I'm playing the I-throw-you-take game with you???
"Damn it! This woman is playing tricks on us!"
The group of people were furious, and the deer seemed to finally realize that it should take back the fruit first. Its huge body stopped and turned towards Mu Qi.
Opposite her was a group of people including a Yuanying and several Jindan. Each of them could kill her with just one finger. They all looked at Mu Qi ferociously, and Mu Qi was numb.
At this time, people and deer rushed over together, and cast spells at Mu Qi like crazy.
My life is in danger!!
At this moment, the dog seemed to finally realize the danger. It flew up and threw the fruit to Mu Qi, who subconsciously caught it.
Then the dog suddenly grew bigger, its fur flashing silver, as if covered by a layer of transparent protective shield, blocking Mu Qi and bouncing back all magical attacks.
The opponents all wailed in pain, injured by their own spells that rebounded from them, and fell to the ground immediately.
The deer was not bounced back, but rushed straight over and crashed into the dog that had turned into a big dog. This time, a piece of its antlers broke off, and the whole body of the deer was bounced away and hit the group of people from Yunxiao Palace.
The leader of the Yunxiao Palace struggled to climb out from under the deer and pushed it away. He stood up and looked at Mu Qi gloomily, "Who are you? How dare you go against our Yunxiao Palace?!"
No! I didn't!
Mu Qi looked miserable, not knowing how to respond. The enlarged dog head turned around and looked at her with a look of begging for praise.
Look! Am I awesome?
Mu Qi stared at the dog's eyes in a daze.
The group of people finally noticed that the spiritual beast with amazing killing power was actually a dog? !
Another person murmured, "This is definitely not an ordinary dog, Big Brother, what on earth is this?"
"I don't know." The leader looked at the dog cautiously, as if thinking about how to deal with it.
"Big Brother, Uncle Du will be here soon. No matter how powerful she is, she can't escape from our uncle who is in the Spirit Transformation Realm! When the time comes, we will catch this dog and bring him back!" a male cultivator shouted excitedly.
Mu Qi slowly put away the fruit. It seemed that even if she didn't want to offend Yunxiao Palace anymore, they had already become her mortal enemy.
Just as Mu Qi and the people from Yunxiao Palace were confronting each other, the deer rushed towards the dog again and knocked off one of its horns, causing the dog to faint on the ground.
Mu Qi walked forward, and the people in Yunxiao Palace all retreated, even those who fell to the ground and couldn't get up moved their butts backwards.
If the spirit pet is so powerful, then this person must be no good! Although she only showed her Qi Refining ability.
Mu Qi silently picked up the two horns. Good things should not be missed.
Just as he put away his antlers, a person landed in front of him.
The man was wearing a dark green robe, which was obviously a top-grade magic weapon. Looking up, he had sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes, and his handsome face was majestic and cold. He stood there with outstanding temperament, like an unshakable mountain, giving the disciples behind him a full sense of security.
The female cultivator behind him looked at the figure, her face unconsciously blushing and her eyes sparkling with stars.
Du Chuanting glanced at Gou Zi, then his eyes fell on Mu Qi, and he asked in a low voice, "It was you who stole the Holy Linglong Fruit from our Yunxiao Palace disciples?"
Seeing that Mu Qi was only at the ninth level of Qi Refining, he couldn't help but frown, looking suspicious.
"Uncle Master Du! Her dog is not an ordinary dog! We can't beat it!" A female cultivator answered the question in time.
Du Chuanting then looked at the dog again, but no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't see what was so powerful about it.
Mu Qi looked at Du Chuanting opposite her. Now that someone with whom she could talk properly had come, she decided to explain the misunderstanding clearly.
She took out the Holy Linglong Fruit again, "This fruit..."
"It's you!" Du Chuanting said coldly.
"No..." Mu Qi wanted to explain again.
"Uncle Master! She just threw the fruit to tease us! You must not let her go! She is so mean!"
Du Chuanting's face turned cold. "We, the disciples of Yunxiao Palace, have always been kind to others. Why are you playing tricks on us? Does Yunxiao Palace have a grudge against you?"
"No, this fruit..." Mu Qi handed the fruit over.
Du Chuanting also wanted to hear how this person explained. Looking at her young face, clear eyes and innocent expression, she shouldn't be such a sinister person.
However, at this time, Gou Zi looked at Mu Qi, who was in embarrassment, and suddenly became angry at Du Chuanting. He rushed towards him without waiting for Mu Qi to finish speaking.
