Chapter 28: So Awesome
"Form a formation!"
A loud shout suddenly rang out.
Several disciples dressed in Wuliang Sect attire, swords in hand, stood at the highest point surrounding the mass grave. Leading the group was Youshan. He pointed his sword high into the sky, and the other disciples followed suit, gathering their spiritual energy into their swords.
A complex magic circle with white light suddenly appeared under the feet of the Thousand-Faced Ghost, and the Thousand-Faced Ghost kept tearing the skin with his fingertips as if he was thrown into a frying pan, and a sound like a baby crying and an old man gasping came out of his mouth.
"Big Brother, what is this?"
Kui Ming came to her and removed the protective layer, and Bai Xiaoxiao asked curiously.
"The Five Spirits Formation," Kui Ming replied, "requires the combined efforts of five Jindan-stage disciples. It's a formation specifically designed to deal with evil spirits."
"Golden Core Stage?" Bai Xiaoxiao suddenly thought of something, and she quickly turned her head and looked up.
The light white to blue flowing long skirt seemed extremely dazzling in the dark night. Qingli walked slowly in the moonlight, like a holy and pure snow lotus fairy.
Bai Xiaoxiao saw her delighted face and said, "Master!"
Kui Ming clasped his hands and said, "Master."
Qing Li glanced at them, then his gaze fell on the Thousand-Faced Ghost who was surrounded.
"Continue to inject spiritual essence, don't let up."
Another charming voice came.
Elder Nishang, wearing a gorgeous rose-purple dress, gently blew air on herself with a golden-threaded red-sparrow feather fan while commanding her disciples to subdue the evil spirit: "He only has a few layers of skin left. In a short while, he will completely dissipate."
Several disciples strengthened their spiritual essence.
The Thousand-Faced Ghost seemed to know that he couldn't escape the Five Spirits Formation. His ugly, tattered face became ferocious and distorted. "Even if I die, I'll drag you down with me! Ah!!!"
The evil energy suddenly surged.
Several disciples who were surrounding him were blown away.
Nichang stopped holding the fan and her eyes suddenly became cold. She was about to concentrate her anger, but an extremely strong icy energy passed through her and suddenly attacked the Thousand-Faced Ghost.
Everyone was in a trance, and saw Immortal Master Miaoqing standing gracefully beside the Thousand-Faced Ghost, with his five jade-like fingers clasping the evil demon's crown, and slowly tightening under his horrified gaze.
'Bang--'
She crushed the Thousand-Faced Ghost.
"That's fucking awesome! [beep!]!"
Bai Xiaoxiao really couldn't help but swear.
Her words were not very polite, but no one in the crowd corrected her. After all, the child really spoke their minds.
Nichang's face didn't look good.
"Oh, if I had known Immortal Master Miao Qing would take action, I wouldn't have asked the disciples to form a formation to suppress the evil spirits, lest it seem like we are trying to steal the credit from Immortal Master Miao Qing."
Qing Li withdrew his hand: "It doesn't matter. No one can take away the credit for my achievements."
"Pfft——" Bai Xiaoxiao covered her mouth and tried to suppress her laughter.
But there is no immortal cultivator without clear five senses. Even the slightest sound or the weakest movement will never escape their ears and eyes, not to mention Qingli and Nishang who have already reached the top of the immortal cultivation.
Nichang turned her eyes to Bai Xiaoxiao, waving her feather fan and smiling meaningfully, "Isn't this the little disciple who insisted on becoming Miaoqing's disciple a few months ago? He's in the middle stage of Qi Refining. Haha... he really has excellent aptitude."
Qing Li glanced at her calmly, "My disciples don't need outsiders to judge them. You must be so bored." With a flick of his finger, the thousand layers of skin shed by the Thousand Faces Ghost fell onto Ni Chang's feather fan. "Go and liberate these souls, so that you won't have nothing to do and come here in vain."
Nichang's eyebrows straightened, but she still didn't abandon those so-called "undead spirits". She waved her hand to collect all the skin bags, and gestured to Youshan: "Let's go."
Youshan followed his master and left.
But he did not forget to glare at Bai Xiaoxiao and Kui Ming.
Bai Xiaoxiao glared back, not wanting to be outdone. Then she ran to Qing Li's side, her bright eyes flashing as she excitedly asked, "Master, why are you here?"
Qing Li didn't answer. His eyes passed from her face to Kui Ming: "How do you feel?"
"I'm fine, Master." Kui Ming replied respectfully.
Qing Li nodded and continued to ask: "What about the training?"
Kui Ming began to narrate everything he and Bai Xiaoxiao had experienced. He not only talked about the encounters in Wuxiang Town and the bad things done by the Thousand-Faced Ghost, but also how Bai Xiaoxiao had quarreled with Youshan.
[No...why do you say anything?]
Bai Xiaoxiao couldn't help but complain when she heard Kui Ming say, "Junior sister wants to support me, and she wants to keep me well fed."
"Can't you just tone it down a bit? I worked so hard to build up this image..."
Kui Ming paused, because he was not quite sure what kind of image his junior sister had established for herself.
Qing Li turned his gaze to her and asked, "Tell me, what did you go through during this training?"
Bai Xiaoxiao didn't expect to be asked this question suddenly, and was stunned at first. Qingli looked at her, his dark eyes were calm and gentle, just like the water after melting in early spring, lingering and affectionate but with some mysterious coldness.
She felt she was bewitched.
"Xiaoxiao?" Qingli called her twice.
Bai Xiaoxiao came back to her senses, and looking at the cold beauty in front of her, her heart couldn't help but jump with joy: "I'm here, Master, I'm telling you...!"
*Aba Aba Aba Aba Aba*
Bai Xiaoxiao's story was told vividly and with little expressions that appeared unintentionally from time to time, she looked very adorable.
Of course, she not only talked about the adventures and interesting things she had experienced, but also included everything that needed to be reported.
"Master, my senior brother and I really didn't provoke them, but they all gave us a cold shoulder. It's one thing for them to go out without my senior brother and me, but when we were besieging the Thousand-Faced Ghost together, Youshan was fighting among himself. There's no unity at all."
Bai Xiaoxiao blinked her eyes and stretched out her hand to straighten Qingli's sleeves: "Master..."
Qing Li's eyes fell on Kui Ming for a moment, and then he asked, "And then? Did your senior brother protect you well?"
"Yes." Bai Xiaoxiao's eyes sparkled. "Big Brother is amazing. His Black Qilin spear kills evil spirits with a 'whoosh-whoosh-whoosh' sound."
Qingli Qingya smiled: "It seems that your senior brother left a good impression on you."
Kui Ming stood aside, listening to their conversation in a daze. When he heard Qing Li say "good impression", his jet-black crow feathers trembled unconsciously.
Qing Li reached out and stroked Bai Xiaoxiao's hair, while opening her other hand, a round bead that seemed to be emitting black flames floated in the air in her palm.
"Master, what is this?"
Bai Xiaoxiao asked in confusion.
Qing Li replied, "It's the inner elixir cultivated by the Thousand-Faced Ghost by gathering evil energy."
Bai Xiaoxiao nodded: "Is it useful?"
Qing Li said slowly, "For those who cultivate immortality, dissolving the evil spirit's inner elixir is tantamount to destroying their own future, but for your eldest brother, it is a top-notch tonic."
