Chapter 296 Must be a Nascent Soul Cultivator



The sword energy easily broke through the defense of this commander-level demon.

However, Zhongli Tingzhou did not take advantage of the situation to kill the other party.

"Kill him quickly!" Li Yixiao's junior brother stood below and shouted anxiously.

"Hurry up!" The others also stared at them with fiery eyes.

Zhongli Tingzhou did not move forward, but instead took a few steps back.

As he retreated, the blade left his body and Gao Han had already slashed him down with one blow.

The demon roared unwillingly. He was unwilling to accept why this happened. He died with this thought in mind.

When the other general-level demons saw that their leader was dead, they immediately scattered.

Gao Han did not stop, he rushed forward and started killing the demons that could not escape in time.

Zhongli Tingzhou did not take action, but he flew to the entrance of the valley and blocked the way. The demons did not dare to force their way in, let alone get close. Behind him was Gao Han, who was like a killing god. Some demons, in desperation, ran towards Li Yixiao and the others.

Although Li Yixiao was seriously injured, he was not unable to deal with even a general-level demon.

Half an hour later, except for the demons that escaped at the beginning, all the demons that were blocked in the valley were killed.

Li Yixiao's fellow junior brothers and sisters swallowed their saliva, unable to believe that the other party was at the same level as them, but could do something that ten of them combined could not do.

At this point, they could no longer tell who had created the sword light that severely injured a commander-level demon at the very beginning.

It was obvious that one was holding a sword and the other was holding a knife.

The most important thing is that they have never heard of such monsters appearing among human monks.

"Thank you both for your help. May I know your names? I am Li Yixiao from Ji Shang Zong." Li Yixiao, with his body that had stopped bleeding, came in front of Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou. The two men looked very unfamiliar, and there was no marking on their clothes. Even their moves were not from the major sects he knew. He was very curious, as he had never heard of such a person appearing among the major sects. If he was a disciple of a major sect, there was no way he didn't know about him.

"My surname is Gao, and his surname is Zhongli." Gao Han put away the knife that was stained with a strong smell of blood and said lightly.

Seeing that they did not say the name directly, Li Yixiao did not ask any further questions, but he was wondering in his heart which sect had a young Jindan cultivator named Zhongli Tingzhou.

Li Yixiao thought for a long time without any result, and could not help asking: "I wonder which school or sect did you two learn from? With such fighting power, you must be extraordinary."

"Purple Sky Sect." There was nothing hidden, so Gao Han told them.

"It's actually the Zixiao Sect." Li Yixiao was shocked.

"Is there any problem?" Gao Han asked back.

"Of course there is no problem." Li Yixiao shook his head quickly. Ning Mengyue beside him couldn't help but muttered, "Isn't Zixiao Sect an ally of our Jishang Sect? Why do you want so many benefits when your ally is in trouble?"

Li Yixiao's face changed, and he immediately scolded: "Junior sister, don't be rude!"

Ning Mengyue was startled.

Li Yixiao's expression was very serious. "If Brother Zhongli and Brother Gao hadn't helped us this time, we would have died long ago. What's the point of having so many Mu Chong flowers? In the end, they just benefited these monsters."

"But didn't you say that we could escape..." Ning Mengyue said aggrievedly.

Li Yixiao didn't expect her to say that. He said disappointedly, "Do you really think we can escape? I'm only talking about the smooth situation. In fact, there are more uncertainties. Besides, escaping may not be without danger. There are demons guarding outside. You are only at the foundation-building stage. Even if you escape, two commander-level demons will chase you. Will you not be able to catch up?"

Ning Mengyue's lips turned pale, she had not thought about these situations.

She was indeed naive enough to think that they could escape after her senior brother sacrificed himself.

"Don't say these things again in the future. This is not what you should say to your benefactor. Even if Brother Zhongli and Brother Gao want everything, it's not too much. This is what they deserve."

Li Yixiao was thinking something else. One fifth was certainly not much compared to four fifths, but there were so many woody flowers and nectar here. One fifth was not only enough for him to recover from his injuries, but also enough for him to break through the bottleneck.

In fact, they made a profit this time. Not only did they save their lives and avoid more casualties, but they were also able to obtain so many woody flowers and nectar.

But they were the first to discover these woody flowers and nectar.

Ning Mengyue pursed her lips but didn't dare to say it out loud.

"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you two." Li Yixiao bowed awkwardly to Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou.

"It doesn't matter. It's human nature. It's human nature." Gao Han said bluntly.

Li Yixiao was even more embarrassed.

Ning Mengyue, who was being indirectly ridiculed, also looked unhappy.

Gao Han curled his lips and said, "Okay, let's go pick the wood-replenishing flowers first. The demons that escaped will definitely return to the city to ask for help. If we don't leave here, we will be eaten by the demons again."

"Yes, yes, yes." Although it was Gao Han who embarrassed him just now, Li Yixiao was still very grateful to Gao Han.

The wood-blossom flowers in the faint sunlight sway their petals and emit a faint floral fragrance.

The petals are dotted with crystal clear water droplets, which are morning dew, not nectar secreted by the wood lily.

Li Yixiao and his fellow apprentices immediately took out white jade bottles and began to pick wood clover flowers and collect nectar.

Gao Han then realized that they did not have small bottles to hold the honey, but they did have bottles for pills.

"If you don't mind, I have a lot of jade bottles here." Li Yixiao noticed it and immediately took out several bottles and handed them to Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou.

"Thank you, this jade bottle helped us a lot." Gao Han clearly distinguished between gratitude and resentment.

"It's just a worthless jade bottle." Li Yixiao smiled and continued to pick flowers.

Although Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou were only two people, their hands and feet were no slower than those with more people.

The nectar secreted by the woodbine flower is in the stamens, and it is necessary to pour the nectar into the jade bottle without damaging the petals.

However, not every woody flower contains nectar.

There are more than three hundred Muzhong flowers in total, and only half of them have nectar. The nectar from more than one hundred Muzhong flowers is just enough to fill five jade bottles.

Li Yixiao and his companions took their share, and the rest went to Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou.

They took away so many things, and although everyone's eyes were furious, they did not lose their minds.

"Junior sister, what are you doing?" Li Yixiao's junior brother, who was picking the remaining muzhong flowers, suddenly spoke up.

Everyone turned their heads in the direction of his gaze and saw that Ning Mengyue had stopped picking the flowers and ran to harvest the heads of the demons on the ground.

"I was collecting spoils of war." Ning Mengyue explained. As everyone stared in silence, she realized something and said stiffly, "I saw that they didn't come to collect them. Besides, the heads I collected were all at the general level. We also killed some. These are contribution points."

"I have a mission from my master, and I have to kill the demons myself." Gao Han said calmly.

Li Yixiao really wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl into. No one knew better than him how many demons they had killed.

Compared to them, it's not worth mentioning at all.

Ning Mengyue didn't know how Li Yixiao felt. When she heard Gao Han say this, she secretly thought, "Who cares about the monsters you kill?" and immediately called a fellow apprentice to come down and help.

"Do I need help? It seems like we didn't kill many monsters." The junior brother didn't notice that the atmosphere was wrong. He blinked his eyes and spoke his mind very honestly.

Li Yixiao wanted to cover his face, it was really too embarrassing, but as a senior brother, he couldn't help but show up, and said to Gao Han with a slightly red face: "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."

Gao Han felt quite sympathetic towards him. His junior sister was a worrying person and his senior brother was also in a difficult situation.

Ning Mengyue didn't believe it, but after searching for a few rounds, she found that they had only killed a dozen demons.

She wanted to pretend that the wounds on a few monsters were blurred and say that they were killed but there was no way because they used swords while Gao Han used a knife, and the fatal wounds of the monsters killed by him were very obvious. Finally she understood why they all had that expression.

"Brother Gao, Brother Zhongli, we'll take our leave now." Li Yixiao actually wanted to chat with them more and find out more about them, but he no longer had the face to stay.

"Goodbye." Gao Han bowed.

Li Yixiao nodded, and then led his fellow disciples out of the valley in a hurry. He could vaguely hear Ning Mengyue's voice calling him from behind.

"I will go harvest the demons' heads, and you go pick the remaining Mu Chong flowers." Gao Han planned to accomplish the task himself, not leaving any handle for Senior Tian Dao to regret.

As for the commander-level demon who was injured by Zhongli Tingzhou's sword, it was Gao Han's crucial blow that took his life.

After doing all this, the two left the valley.

About half an hour later, the mayor of Half Moon City rushed to the deserted valley with two hundred men.

The escaped demon brought the city lord to the place where the muzhong flowers grew, and pulled them out completely.

The countless corpses of demons on the ground tell of the great war that once took place here.

"City, City Lord..." The demon who reported the news looked nervous.

The Lord of Half Moon City slapped the demon's head, and it exploded instantly.

The other commander-level demons hung their heads and said nothing, their eyes fixed on the headless corpse on the ground, which was the corpse of their colleague Hill.

Hill discovered that there were a large number of wood flowers and nectar in this valley, but he did not report it. Instead, Anada, who joined forces with Xiaori City, obviously intended to keep them for himself.

Several commander-level demons secretly resented that an opportunity to improve their strength had slipped away from them in vain. If Hill had told them about this, they would have joined forces and Hill would have lost his life. This was the consequence of greed.

"City Lord, those people should not have run far. Why don't I take some people to intercept and kill them?" A commander-level demon immediately volunteered.

"City Lord, I can do it too." Several other commander-level demons also expressed their opinions.

The mayor of Half Moon City put his hands behind his back, staring gloomily at the place where Mu Chonghua disappeared, and said in a deep voice: "No need, someone must stay in the city now. This mayor has received the news that Xiaori City is gone today."

"What do you mean "not here"? " Several demons were horrified. Is this what they understood?

"What it means is that Half Moon City is not far from Little Sun City. The people who destroyed Little Sun City are very likely to target Half Moon City." When the Lord of Half Moon City first received the news, he was also shocked.

Kuik from Xiaori City was a powerful warrior in the early stage of the Grand Commander, but he died. The humans who attacked Xiaori City must have a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, and his strength was even greater than Kuik's. He could not gamble. Even if he knew that he might be able to catch up with the human cultivators who were picking Mu Chong flowers, he could not leave Half Moon City.

Li Yixiao and his group of six had no idea that they had escaped a disaster because of this.
