Chapter 88 Falling off a Cliff
Song Jinghe glanced at Fu Ning, and Fu Ning nodded at him, signaling him to go and come back quickly.
He rushed to the camp of the Twelve Immortal Mountains. There was no one in the tent belonging to the Formation Technique Peak. It seemed that they had not returned yet, or would never come back.
Song Jinghe was in no mood to care about the fate of his colleagues. He took out Senior Brother Ma's bag. As the leader of the Formation Technique Peak, he should have a few extra teleportation stones.
As expected, he took out the teleportation stone and stepped into the teleportation array.
But he absentmindedly thought about Fu Ning's words and found it a bit strange. Why did she specifically ask him not to go with Bai Yuchen? Logically speaking, it was impossible for him to go to the Demon Realm.
Unless the cultivators in the world of cultivation can no longer make it and surrender to the world of demons, other people will never step into the world of demons. To step in is tantamount to walking into a trap.
He shook his head and stopped thinking about it, but quickly rushed to the courtyard of Zhen Shu Peak. It seemed that this was the first time that Fu Ning wanted him to accompany her to do something, so he had to go and come back quickly.
——
Fu Ning waited leisurely for Song Jinghe to come back, but it was obvious that no one else was in as good a mood as she was.
The people from the demon world surrounded them and drove them to the edge of a cliff. If they stepped back a few steps, they would be in a bottomless abyss. Everyone sat down trembling with fear, fearing that a gust of wind would blew and they would lose their balance and fall down.
Several people from Alchemy Peak wanted to get close to Wang Minglu to talk, but were stopped by the disciples from the Demon Realm.
One of them curled his lips and asked, "What use is that palace lantern that you want? Why do you have to tie us up and hold us hostage?"
Bai Yuchen sat under the shade of the tree, frowning in annoyance. Qi Ye observed her expression and said to the man, "Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask."
"Okay." The man stood up again and said, "Can we stay in the shade? This scorching sun is drying us out."
The demon disciple drew his sword and said in a cold voice: "If you want to die, keep walking."
The man assessed the skills of both parties and sat down feeling frustrated.
Su Zimei cast a coquettish glance at the disciple from the demon world and secretly moved towards Fu Ning.
Fu Ning saw her actions, laughed, and whispered: "You don't really need to use honey traps."
"What do you mean?" Su Zimei asked.
"You're so weak and pose no threat. They won't care."
Su Zimei felt her fist harden again. She raised her chin and said, "I wish they would think I'm too weak and let me go."
"That's a little smarter." Fu Ning asked, "What are you doing here?"
Su Zimei said: "You have seen that palace lantern, right? What does it look like? What is its function? Why did these people mobilize so many troops?"
Fu Ning said: “I have seen it. Song Jinghe gave it to Shen Qingning at that time.”
Shen Qingning was sitting next to Fu Ning. When she heard her mention herself, she felt very guilty and immediately explained, "That was given to me by Song Jinghe for no reason."
Su Zimei had a gossipy expression on her face, "Maybe Song Jinghe still has feelings for you? After all, you two had such a good relationship before, it's impossible for you to break up all of a sudden."
Fu Ning glanced at Su Zimei, who felt uneasy for some reason and said, "Ah, maybe he gave it to the wrong person. He originally wanted to give it to Fu Ning, but he gave it to you out of spite."
Although Su Zimei's words were always unpleasant to the ear, Shen Qingning felt that she was right. Fu Ning and Song Jinghe were indeed having a quarrel at that time. Maybe it was just to irritate her grandmother that Song Jinghe gave her the palace lantern.
"Alas." Shen Qingning sighed, unwilling to mention it any more.
Fu Ning said loudly: "In any case, the palace lantern is really useless in our hands. Song Jinghe quickly brought it to them and finished the job."
Bai Yuchen rubbed his eyebrows under the shade of the tree. This little girl wanted to relax her vigilance.
During the day, ten people stayed quietly on the edge of the cliff to bask in the sun and chat occasionally, but the sun was too strong and basically made everyone wilted. In the end, no one spoke anymore.
It was not until the sun went down, night fell, and the temperature on the ground dropped that a few people felt themselves coming back to life.
The people from the Demon Realm lit a bonfire and sat down on the spot. Qi Ye distributed dry food to them. After they had eaten, they still surrounded Fu Ning and the others, staring at them.
Several people from the Alchemy Peak had their own plans in mind. They were disciples of the Twelve Immortal Mountains, but they were bullied by the Demon Realm. If they told others about this, they would be laughed at. Moreover, they had learned from childhood that the Demon Realm was a place of evil and killing innocent cultivators. They had long hated them, and if they didn't kill a few of them while they were relaxing, they would be unworthy of the cultivation of the Immortal Mountains.
So the three of them looked at each other and decided to take a rest, wake up in the second half of the night, and quickly break out of the siege.
Fu Ning was sleeping soundly with his head resting on his bag when he was awakened by the sound of swords clashing close to his ears. When he opened his eyes, he saw Wang Minglu, several people from the Alchemy Peak, Yan Qu and Shen Qingning fighting with the disciples of the Demon Realm.
She asked the system with a headache: "What's going on? Why did they start fighting out of nowhere?"
The system said: "First, the people from the Alchemy Peak failed in their sneak attack on the disciples of the Demon Realm and were almost caught by them. Yan Qu and Wang Minglu heard the noise and joined the battle to rescue them. After Shen Qingning woke up, he also helped."
Song Zhizhi, who was standing by, was watching when she suddenly saw a disciple from the demon world stabbing Yan Qu. She quickly drew her sword to help Yan Qu block the attack and was thus drawn into the battle.
Seeing that everyone was fighting, Yin Huayue drew out her sword and started fighting with the disciples from the demon world.
The only one who had no combat experience was Su Zimei who quietly moved her butt and found a secluded corner and did not join in.
Fu Ning, who was already having a headache, had an even bigger headache. What was originally a simple matter was really complicated by them, and she angered her senior sister. This would not end well.
The people from the Twelve Immortal Mountains and the people from the Demon Realm fought on equal terms, but the premise was that Bai Yuchen did not take action.
She slowly stood up from the chair and said with her red lips, "Sure enough, I am too kind. That's why people like you are so dishonest."
In less than a breath, she appeared in front of the leader of Alchemy Peak, and with a wave of her hand, she swept the sword in his hand to the ground, and her slender fingers pinched his neck, and blood flowed along her nails.
Bai Yuchen smiled and said, "You were the one who took the lead."
No one reacted in time. Bai Yuchen brought him to the edge of the cliff, raised his arms, and let his feet dangle in the air. The man begged for mercy in a hoarse voice: "Don't kill me."
Wang Minglu quickly rushed towards Bai Yuchen and said, "Don't kill him, we won't move."
Bai Yuchen turned his head, expressionless, and said, "It's too late."
She loosened her fingers before she finished her words, and the man from Alchemy Peak screamed and fell off the cliff.
Everyone was shocked. No one expected that she would kill someone without any warning. The atmosphere was extremely heavy for a moment.
The two men from Alchemy Peak reacted and didn't care about the people from the Demon Realm. They rushed to the edge of the cliff. It was pitch black at the bottom of the mountain and they couldn't see anything.
The two men lowered their heads. The three of them were selected to enter the Alchemy Peak at the same time. It has been six years since then. They have always had a very good relationship. Who would have thought that after successfully leaving the secret realm, they would face such a separation of life and death.
One of them roared, turned and rushed towards Bai Yuchen, shouting: "I'm going to kill you!"
Bai Yuchen laughed and said, "Here comes another one seeking death."
Wang Minglu rushed over and grabbed him, scolding him, "That's enough, stop making trouble."
The man roared with red eyes: "She killed Brother Hong, she killed my senior brother!"
Wang Minglu hugged him and stopped him from doing anything stupid. "But we can't beat him. Let's not make any more unnecessary sacrifices."
The man cried miserably, with snot and tears streaming down his face. Su Zimei looked at him with disdain and said, "So if you don't seek death, you won't die. Why are you causing trouble for no reason?"
Later, it gradually became quiet, but the people in the Twelve Immortal Mountains were basically immersed in the sadness of losing their companions. Only Fu Ning and Su Zimei were heartless and took another nap.
It was not yet completely bright, the birds were singing again in the woods, the top of the mountain was foggy, Fu Ning was woken up by Shen Qingning, and saw Song Jinghe coming back in the morning dew, and gave the palace lantern to Bai Yuchen.
The little system suddenly said: "Boss, I have something to tell you."
"you say."
"According to the effect of the [Maintain Status Quo] item, you should have died of the poison by now." The system said, "But you won't die, sir."
Fu Ning tilted his head. "Why wouldn't I go for such a good opportunity? It's just the right time to get Song Jinghe's remaining 5,000 points. His favorability hasn't increased for a long time."
"But this is not a good time, and the points you get cannot be redeemed." The system said worriedly.
Fu Ning said, "It's okay. If I don't go and kill myself now, wouldn't it be a waste of my props? Let's hide for a while and come out after exchanging all the points."
The system added: "But if you suddenly fake your death, many people will worry."
Fu Ning thought about it and felt that what the system said made sense. She really didn’t want to make Wang Minglu and Xiaoyu worry, so she had to tell them about this matter in advance.
She compromised and said, "Then I'll hold on for a while and just pretend to die in front of Song Jinghe."
Anyway, this was the cause he had sown, and he should bear the consequences.
The system still thinks the host's decision is unwise, "Boss, what if it backfires and the villain's favorability decreases?"
Fu Ning said indifferently: "That's just fine."
Anyway, she has lost her patience with the matter of conquering Song Jinghe.
Because of the evacuation of the disciples from the Demon Realm, everyone from the Twelve Immortal Mountains left the edge of the cliff, and only Fu Ning was still standing there. Su Zimei looked back at her and suddenly felt frightened.
She thought of how Fu Ning had bullied and threatened her all the way, and she clenched her fingers. She also wanted to scare Fu Ning and let her taste the feeling of being teased.
She walked towards Fu Ning and asked, "Why don't you leave?"
Fu Ning patted his butt, stood up and said, "Let's go now."
Su Zimei suddenly stretched out her hand and pushed her. The force was not strong, but what was fatal was that after Fu Ning staggered back a step, her vision suddenly blurred and she fell backwards without any warning.
Fu Ning suddenly fell into the mental room, looking at Su Zimei's frightened face on the wall and her tightly grasping her ankle.
Fu Ning: “?”
The little bun system was also startled and said hurriedly: "Boss, I will let you return to your body now!"
Fu Ning opened her eyes, but it was too late. The whistling wind in her ears made her face hurt. The top of the mountain was rapidly moving away from her, and the feeling of weightlessness completely overwhelmed her.
The system set off alarm bells in her mind.
"Alert! The host's life is in danger!"
"Beep - the self-protection program cannot be activated."
【Author has something to say】
If you don't commit suicide, you won't die. This is for Xiao Su:-D
