Chapter 73 The Egg Thief

"Okay, bring the spirit stone."

When they entered the yard and saw Sun Xiang, they greeted each other.

"Senior Sister Ji."

"Junior Sister Sun."

Among all the talismans she has now, the sound transmission talisman sells the worst. Outer disciples are generally very poor and would rather buy cheap ones than expensive ones.

Guan Yunchao wanted to take out a bag of spiritual stones and throw it at her head, "Money-grubber!"

"What do you want from me?"

"Someone found my brother and asked him to find someone to do a mission. He said there were two spots left for me. He asked me if you would like to go."

Ji Qingling didn't expect that he would specifically take her with him, "Brother Guan Ping? He has reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, so why can't he find anyone in the outer sect? Why do you want to take me with you?"

"Of course it's because you are good at making talismans. I hope you can sell more talismans to him in the future. The reward for this mission is very good. It would be a pity to miss it."

In the past few years, the two of them have worked on several missions together. They have similar personalities and a high degree of tacit understanding, and gradually became good friends.

"Hey, you've reached the seventh level of Qi Refining? You caught up with me so quickly?"

Ji Qingling didn't respond, "What's the mission?"

Guan Yunchao walked into her room first, "Come in and talk."

Okay, so mysterious.

In the room, Guan Yunchao finally explained the matter to her clearly. It was unknown whether Zhou Yan from the outer sect was the descendant of some powerful inner sect master.

The rule of Taiyi Sect is that those who have not established a foundation can only be considered outer disciples.

This time, it was another junior fellow who found a spirit beast egg outside.

It is said that it looks very much like the egg of the sixth-order nine-tailed crested bird that was killed by Taoist Yunhua of Zixia Peak last time.

Because that junior fellow's family is famous for taming beasts, his words are highly credible.

Unfortunately, for some reason, there were other monsters guarding the spirit beast egg, and he didn't dare to take action because his cultivation was not high enough.

Somehow Zhou Yan found out about this and she bought the information at a high price.

Guan Ping was quite famous in the outer sect, so he was asked to find a few more people to help.

The reward offered was indeed very attractive, so there was no reason for Ji Qingling not to go.

The two agreed to meet at the meeting point the day after tomorrow and left Ji Qingling's house.

"Brother Guan, wait a minute."

In the yard, Sun Xiang looked at Guan Yunchao with a blush on her face.

"What is it?"

"Brother Guan, can you take me with you when you go on the mission? I don't want any reward, just take me with you."

After hearing her words, Guan Yunchao walked out of the yard without looking back.

"Can't!"

Sun Xiang chased after him, but unfortunately Guan Yunchao had already gone far away using a few speed spells.

She wanted to beg Ji Qingling again, but there was a barrier at the door of Ji Qingling, and no matter how she shouted, there was no response.

Alas, this Senior Brother Guan has good aptitude, high cultivation, and is also handsome. There are countless senior sisters and junior sisters in the outer sect who have shown goodwill to him.

Although he has a somewhat aloof personality, the friends he usually teams up with are all extremely qualified or gifted people, and they are all disciples favored by the elders of the inner sect.

Unfortunately, apart from the female cultivators who work on missions with him on weekdays, he hardly interacts with other female cultivators.

And because he often came to Ji Qingling to buy talismans, Sun Xiang became familiar with him.

Familiar face probably just means you know who she is.

She understood one thing since she was a child: the daughters of wealthy merchants would not play with the girls from small merchants' families.

With her qualifications, it is almost impossible for Guan Yunchao to look at her differently.

So she needs to make friends with Ji Qingling, maybe there is still a glimmer of hope.

Since she came here to cultivate immortality, she would not just think about those girlish concerns.

Being able to get close to a genius disciple with a single spiritual root like Guan Yunchao will definitely be beneficial in the future.

~ Two days later, Ji Qingling arrived at the agreed location.

Guan Ping was very enthusiastic when he saw her.

"Junior Sister Ji, come here, this way."

Guan Ping introduced a female cultivator next to her, "Let me introduce you to this, this is Junior Sister Zhou Yan. She is the one who asked us to help this time."

Zhou Yan and Ji Qingling were about the same age, around fifteen or sixteen years old, and both were at the seventh level of Qi Refining.

Ji Qingling was at the same level as her, and called her, "Fellow Daoist Zhou."

Zhou Yan didn't expect that the person Guan Ping found was so young, but Guan Ping had a good reputation in the outer sect, so she was not worried about Ji Qingling's strength.

Ji Qingling had contact with other people in Guan Ping's team and greeted them one by one.

After everyone is gathered, they will set off! On the way, Zhou Yan introduced another person to them, "This is Junior Brother Wei Shuan, he was the one who found the spirit beast egg."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Wei Shuan in the team greeted everyone shyly.

As the captain, Guan Ping is naturally more concerned about the spirit beast egg.

"Junior Brother Wei, you said there are monsters guarding that place, but wasn't the Nine-tailed Crowned Bird killed by Daoist Master Yunhua? Why did its eggs appear here?"

Wei Shuan was more natural when he heard about the spirit beast. "This sixth-level demon beast can transform.

How could such powerful monsters that can transform into human form appear in a place like Dongshan where human cultivators often hang out?

So he must have a special purpose for appearing here, and he happened to find the nine-tailed crested bird's eggs here. I guess it was because the eggs were stolen, and he came to chase the egg thief. "

"Egg thief!"

"What monster would steal someone else's eggs? Can't it lay its own eggs?"

"Ahem, the eggs of the Nine-Circled Crowned Bird are a great tonic for all monsters, so..."

So that's how it is.

Guan Yunchao asked, "How can you be so sure that the egg belongs to the nine-tailed crested bird you mentioned?"

Wei Shuan was a little angry when his knowledge of spiritual beasts was questioned.

"My family has been beast taming for generations. I have known all kinds of spirit beasts and demon beasts since I was a child. I can't be wrong."

Ji Qingling thought of something, "What level is the Hidden Beast?"

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be a third-level stealth beast."

"A third-level stealth beast, why would a third-level monster dare to steal the egg of this great monster?"

"Brother, you may not know that among the demon beasts, the Hidden Beast is an expert at hiding. If it wants to hide something, it is difficult to be discovered. I just happened to see it this time."

Ji Qingling was a little confused. "This third-level monster is equivalent to the initial stage of foundation building for human cultivators. The highest level among us is the Great Perfection of Qi Refining. Is it possible?"

This question seems to be questioning Guan Ping's ability.

But Guan Ping didn't care. He pointed at his teammates and said, "Don't worry, Junior Sister Ji. We are working together, and the Hidden Beast has a low attack power, so it won't be a problem to take it down. Junior Brother Wei said it was injured. So it's fine."

The group followed Wei Shuan through many twists and turns and finally arrived at their destination.

"Junior Brother Wei, you said the spirit beast egg is in the lake?"

"Senior Sister Zhou, it is indeed in this lake!"

Zhou Yan was a little at a loss. How could she find it? Guan Ping patted Wei Shuan on the shoulder and said, "Brother Wei, don't keep us in suspense. Let's make it clear once and for all so we can start."

The Hidden Beast that took the monster egg is indeed a relatively useless existence among the monsters.

This beast has no appeal to people. It has low attack power, cannot hunt for treasure, cannot track, its meat is not tasty, and it looks black and unattractive, so it is not as useful as the purely ornamental streamer cat. After breaking through the third level, it can fly, but its body is small and it cannot be used as a flying mount.

It's just that they have excellent hiding abilities. Some families or sects will train them to deliver messages, and they can only be effective when the sound transmission talisman cannot be used over long distances.

Come on, monthly tickets, recommendation tickets, comments! By the way, is it a heart or a refill?
