Upon hearing the name "Breaking Boundary Flower," Mu Qingren's face flushed slightly.
At the same time, he pulled his sleeves back a little.
"I'll spare your life if you hand over the Breakthrough Flower, out of respect for our old friendship!"
The Twin Monsters of Tongtian said in a cold voice.
Mu Qingren gritted her teeth and said, "Seniors, I did come for the Breakthrough Flower, but this is what my master deserves!"
"Deserved?"
The Twin Monsters of Tongtian narrowed their eyes and sneered: "What do you mean by 'deserved'?"
"Ten years ago, when the two seniors were besieged, didn't you promise my master a Breakthrough Flower to find help?"
Mu Qingren asked, raising her head.
"Ten years ago..."
The Twin Demons of Tongtian appeared deep in thought. "I did talk to your master about it, but that was so many years ago, it doesn't count anymore!"
Just like when faced with a deadbeat who refuses to pay his debts, Mu Qingren was momentarily speechless with anger.
"Since the two seniors remember this matter, then this Breakthrough Flower should naturally be given to my master! Therefore, I will not hand over this Breakthrough Flower!"
Mu Qingren said through gritted teeth.
"If you don't hand it over, then leave your life behind."
The Twin Demons of Tongtian spoke coldly, then struck with lightning speed, unleashing a palm strike with the force of a thousand pounds towards Mu Qingren. Mu Qingren clasped her hands to receive the blow, but the difference in their cultivation levels was simply too great, and the Twin Demons of Tongtian were using their full strength this time. As a result, Mu Qingren was directly blasted away, flying towards the direction where Jing Zhe was hiding…
At this moment, Jing Zhe had no time to think and had no choice but to show himself.
With a leap, he flew towards Mu Qingren, caught her, held her in his arms, and slowly landed.
"you…"
When Mu Qingren saw Jing Zhe, she pursed her lips and looked at him with a complicated expression. Before she could say anything, blood started flowing from the corner of her mouth.
"Don't speak yet."
Jing Zhe said softly, then placed a hand on Mu Qingren's back and channeled some internal energy into her.
"Young man, it's you again?"
The two strange beings from the heavens were dumbfounded when they saw that it was Jing Zhe.
"Two seniors, you are both grandmasters, yet you ganged up to bully a mere woman. If I were to spread this around, how do you think people in the martial arts world would judge you?"
"..."
The faces of the two strange monsters turned red instantly.
"Don't talk nonsense, who bullied her?"
"We're just asking her to hand over the Breakthrough Flower!"
"Did you take the Breakthrough Flower?"
Jing Zhe looked down to ask, and Mu Qingren's mouth twitched twice. Before she could answer, Jing Zhe looked up and smiled, "She said she didn't take it."
“We saw it with our own eyes, she took it, there’s no mistake.”
"I trust her, she won't lie to me, so she can't be wrong."
After Jing Zhe finished speaking, he reached into his robes.
Upon seeing this, the two strange beings from the heavens immediately took a step back alertly.
They were terrified by the grenade thrown by Jing Zhe the night before last. Fortunately, they immediately used their internal energy to form a protective barrier. Otherwise, they would have been seriously injured.
So when I saw Jing Zhe reach out, I thought he was going to pull out a grenade to blow someone up again.
"Young man, what are you taking out!"
"Oh, seniors, there's no need to be nervous."
Jing Zhe pulled out a self-destructing pill, waved it in front of the two monsters, and laughed, "It's just a tonic."
Then he looked down at Mu Qingren and said, "Come on, open your mouth."
Mu Qing opened her mouth somewhat blankly, and the pill was stuffed into her mouth along with Jing Zhe's hand. The feeling was peculiar, and... very comfortable.
Mu Qingren blushed and closed her eyes.
Jing Zhe looked up and said, "If you two seniors don't want me to go around gossiping, then let's leave it at that for today! What do you mean by 'broken or tattered' flowers—"
"It's a Breakthrough Flower!"
"Oh, that Breakthrough Flower, even if you did take it, is it that important?"
"Pah, ignorant brat!"
"The Breakthrough Flower only blooms once every ten years. Do you think it's important or not?"
"For those stuck in the breakthrough stage, especially those from the sixth level to the Grandmaster level, consuming a Breakthrough Flower will make their efforts twice as effective!"
“There were five Breakthrough Flowers on the mountain before. More than a year ago, your master came and picked three of them by herself. Now there is one missing. If she didn’t pick it, who did?”
"..."
No wonder the Twin Monsters of Tongtian were so nervous; it turns out this Breaking Realm Flower is incredibly powerful.
Most importantly... his master took three flowers by himself.
Jing Zhe did some calculations and roughly guessed that this Breaking Realm Flower was used to refine "Jujube Pills," which explained why the pills had such miraculous effects.
"You can't assume we took one just because one flower is missing, can you? How can you guarantee that it wasn't my master who came and took another one?"
"..."
The Twin Monsters of Heaven really can't guarantee that.
Because the old medicine boy is in Jinxi City, and with his current level of cultivation, he can freely enter and leave Changsheng Mountain without anyone noticing…
But Mu Qingren clearly said just now that she took it!
"Seniors, you can ask my master when he arrives!"
After Jing Zhe finished speaking, he picked up Mu Qingren and flew away.
One of the two monsters was about to give chase when it was stopped by the other.
Why won't you let me go after them?
The other strange man shook his head and said, "That kid is cunning and has such strange hidden weapons on him. Have you forgotten what we suffered the night before last? Who knows if he'll use those hidden weapons again if we catch up! Besides, even if we catch up, we can't do anything to him. After all, the old medicine boy is in the city. It's not good to offend him!"
"So we just stand by and watch them take the Breakthrough Flower?"
"Heh, how could we let them off so easily?"
The Twin Devils sneered, "The old medicine boy will definitely come again. Then we'll use this to blackmail him into leaving some pills—the pills he makes are far superior to the Breakthrough Flower..."
"That's right, Senior Brother is indeed the smartest!"
...
Jing Zhe carried Mu Qingren and flew down the mountain without looking back.
Seeing that the two monsters from Tongtian were not chasing after him, he was relieved. However, Mu Qingren was too weak to carry her into the city, so he found a secluded open space and put her down.
Then, he infused her with some internal energy, and as the self-destruct pill gradually took effect, Mu Qingren's complexion gradually recovered. She slowly opened her eyes, looked at Jing Zhe who was holding her in his arms, her bright eyes blinking, seemingly lost in thought.
Seeing that she was awake, Jing Zhe began to complain with some dissatisfaction.
"I have to say, aren't you being a bit too stubborn?"
"I clearly told you it was dangerous, why didn't you listen?"
"And another thing, a broken flower is more important than life itself?"
"Thank goodness I came today. What would you have done if I hadn't come?"
Mu Qingren pursed her lips, no longer looking at him, and whispered, "At worst... I'll just die..."
"Smack!"
Jing Zhe was a little angry, and subconsciously slapped some indescribable protrusions on her body. After hitting her, he was stunned: I fucking hit Mu Qingren.
Mu Qingren's face turned as red as if it could drip water. Fortunately, she was weak and didn't move. She just bit her lip and glared at him: "You... dare to hit me?"
Jing Zhe made a firm decision:
"Why wouldn't I dare? If you disobey me, I'll hit you!"
"..."
