Chapter 22 Your Heart Is Too Soft



Qiao Yu ran away.

Qiao Yu panicked.

Qiao Yu got lost.

This is a jungle, with towering trees rising from the ground, lush and green. Animals often run around in the forest, and snakes, insects, and rodents lurk all around. He, however, is just a human being, and he seems too insignificant in this world.

After realizing that Wen Jingge hadn't followed, Qiao Yu didn't even dare to shout, because just moments before, he had almost been swallowed by a giant dragon.

This was also the first time in Qiao Yu's life that she had ever seen a dragon that only existed in legends.

Although he hasn't gained anything from this trip to the Illusory Realm of No Form, he has still reaped a great harvest.

Master is right, being beaten really can make people improve.

He walked alone for a day and encountered many ferocious beasts. Fortunately, they were not of high level, which is why he is still alive.

After successfully defeating and taming a ninth-tier Snow-Covered Jade Lion, Qiao Yu has already taught herself the sword flight technique that only eighth-rank Xuan Masters begin to learn.

It flew shakily, bumping into trees and scraping the ground every now and then, which caused the snow-covered jade lion to vomit even after resting for an hour after landing.

It could be considered a blessing in disguise. Qiao Yu accidentally knocked over a number of small animals, and while he was making a fire, he skinned the rabbits and threw the pheasants he had caught in front of the Snow-Covered Jade Lion.

"You wouldn't happen to want to become my spirit pet, would you! Senior Brother did say that if someone is pretty, I can take them back as a spirit pet, and he will ask Master to help me."

You've been following me all day, it can't be because I beat you up and you want to beat me up again, right?

He looked at the jade lion with great apology, searching for pills in his storage bag. Both the jade lion and he were covered in scratches. "I'm sorry! I didn't mean to. When I took off, I thought I could fly."

Besides, I didn't know you'd follow me! I thought you were going to eat me.

The jade lion snorted, lowered its eyes, picked up a pheasant, took a bite, and then spat it out.

Qiao Yu: ...

"Well... I'm not very good at taking care of people. I guess Master is afraid that I'm clumsy, so he doesn't let me serve him."

"My master doesn't have anyone of your level. Before joining the sect, I had no idea there were so many strange things in this world, and I wouldn't raise you!"

The jade lion rolled over, turned its back to Qiao Yu, and stopped looking at him, as if it regretted following him out.

"Hey! I finally found him." Jiang Zilin ran over, still panting. "Wait, just you? What about that sickly guy? I told you not to hang out with him, is he dead?"

"Roar!" The jade lion, which was resting, suddenly roared. Although it was only at the ninth level, it was much larger than other demonic beasts.

Jiang Zilin was startled and immediately drew his sword. The jade lion, as if provoked, blocked Jiang Zilin from coming over and then turned its head to roar at Qiao Yu.

Qiao Yu retreated repeatedly, "Xiao Xue, he is my senior brother, don't fight him."

roar!

Seeing Qiao Yu retreat, the Jade Lion also took a step back, but its eyes remained wary as it watched Jiang Zilin.

"You're something else! You got a demon pet so quickly."

"Senior brother..."

"Hand over the demon core!"

"I don't have a demon core." This is the truth. Only eighth-rank demons have demon cores. He is not even ninth-rank yet. He really wants to fight, but if he loses his life, he will really have nothing left.

He touched the knife in his sleeve. When Song Ren gave him the knife, he had said that if he couldn't go on living, he should kill himself. He didn't understand then, but he understood now.

If you're already dead, what's the point of taking your own life?

Nothing in this world is more important than one's own life. No matter what changes may occur in the future, only he himself can end his life.

"Don't lie to me!" Jiang Zilin scanned his surroundings, trying to confirm whether the Shadow Crane actually existed in this sky. "Even if you don't have the ninth-grade cultivation, you are a natural-born sword prodigy. If you were born into another sect, your master might not like you."

But your master herself has that constitution and has enjoyed all the blessings within and outside the sect. How could she possibly not take care of you, her newly accepted disciple? Quickly hand over the jade token!

Qiao Yu took a deep breath, thinking about the words his senior brother had told him on Wanzhang Peak before he came in. This Jiang Zilin must be the kind of person who would kill without batting an eye.

The net of heaven is vast and its meshes are wide, yet nothing escapes it. The deeper one goes into the Illusory Realm of No Form, the fewer the shadow cranes in the sky become. The only thing that can truly monitor the disciples' every move is the jade token they carry with them.

It seems that Jiang Zilin was unaware of this.

There were many disciples in the Xuan Yun Sect, and the clothes that Wen Jingge had instructed them to make were not yet finished, so these disciples were still dressed in plain white.

Qiao Yu noticed that Jiang Zilin's white clothes were stained with a lot of blood, and she didn't know if it was human blood or blood from those who had died by his sword.

"When I came in, my senior brother said that I was already the master's second disciple. The master doesn't care about grades. Even if I don't get a single point here, I will be the one who suffers humiliation in the future."

My master remains the revered Immortal Venerable Wen, and all others see is me as a dull disciple who is unable to remember my master's teachings!

"Senior Brother Jiang, I really came here to spar with ninth-tier demonic beasts, not to kill them and steal their cores."

"Hand over the jade token! You know you can't beat me." Jiang Zilin persisted.

Seeing that there was really no other way, Qiao Yu had no choice but to go and take out the jade pendant. Just then, an arrow shot from a distance. Qiao Yu felt a blur before his eyes and a gust of wind seemed to pass over his head. Then, he was lifted up and the jade lion chased after him.

"Shh!"

Qiao Yu hurriedly covered his lower abdomen. What should he do? He hadn't even mastered the ninth rank yet, and it seemed like he was about to be promoted again.

"Huh?" The mud monkey beside him was surprised. Seeing the jade lion about to rush over, it hurriedly said, "Senior brother, can you tell it to go somewhere else? I can't beat the one down there."

"Xiaoxue, go somewhere else, I'm not in danger!" Qiao Yu whispered at the top of his lungs, but the jade lion still crashed into him, only to crash into a different spot where a bird was fluttering.

"Qiao Yu! Come out! You've given me so many surprises! You even have accomplices!"

The girl beside him, whose original white clothes had been rolled around in the mud and were no longer recognizable, even her face was covered in mud. If she hadn't spoken, Qiao Yu wouldn't have been able to tell her gender.

"Who are you……"

"It's enough that I recognize you." The girl touched the bow and arrows slung over her shoulder. "I'm injured. Can you carry me when we get out of here?"

How did you get injured?

The girl didn't answer, but pointed below, "My jade pendant is still in his hands. I'll distract him later, and you can have the jade lion launch a sneak attack."

"Xiao Xue launched a sneak attack?" Qiao Yu was surprised. The jade lion had only been with him for less than a day. Could he really control it?

"Hmm." The girl looked at him seriously. "You can't do it. You're too soft-hearted."
