Or is he already dead?
He remembered hearing a voice like that of the King of Hell taking souls before he lost consciousness.
That sound... just thinking about it now sends chills down my spine.
Rong Zi, still shaken, released Gu Xiaochui and Yun Jing. Cai Niu and Jun Moyao had already hidden in her ring. She looked at Ling Mo in the room with displeasure, "Why did you start fighting as soon as you opened your eyes? Young man, your behavior is very dangerous!"
Especially when she saw the shattered door in front of her, she raised her hand to cover her chest, feeling a deep sense of heartache.
They started demolishing the house before even becoming an apprentice!
This future apprentice is a bit of a spendthrift!
Ling Mo listened to Rong Zi's voice, glanced at her, Gu Xiaochui, and Yun Jing for a few moments, and then asked with some surprise, "Are you people?"
Rong Zi and his two disciples: "..."
How should I speak?
What was wrong with them that made him wonder?!
As the person with the highest cultivation level in the sect, Gu Xiaochui stood in front of Rong Zi and Yun Jing with a great sense of responsibility.
He pointed at Ling Mo with a dark face and accused her in a deep voice, "You've gone a bit too far! We kindly saved you, and instead of being grateful, you're swearing at us?"
Her voice sounds so pleasant, but the words she says are so harsh.
Ling Mo frowned. "You saved me?"
Yun Jing peeked out from behind Gu Xiaochui and nodded.
“Yeah, if it weren’t for us, you would probably have been captured by those demons long ago.”
Upon hearing this answer, Ling Mo fell silent.
If he wasn't mistaken, the three people in front of him—two at the Qi Refining stage and one at the Foundation Establishment stage—didn't seem like they could possibly defeat a Nascent Soul cultivator.
Although she felt puzzled, Ling Mo did not ask any questions. Instead, she got up from the bed and walked out the door.
His injuries had not yet fully healed, and he subconsciously frowned as he stood up.
When Gu Xiaochui and Yun Jing saw Ling Mo approaching, they immediately assumed a defensive stance, staring at him warily.
They were afraid the other party would slap them across the face.
Rong Zi didn't make any move.
Although Ling Mo's face was cold and gloomy, and his whole body exuded a chill, he seemed to keep people at arm's length.
But the murderous aura in his eyes had dissipated.
They probably won't attack them so indiscriminately like they did before.
Sure enough, after Ling Mo walked outside the door, he looked down at the three people in front of him and said a sentence to them in a stiff tone.
Thank you.
Eighteen-year-old Ling Mo is a few centimeters taller than Gu Xiaochui.
In addition, his innate cold and aloof demeanor creates a strong sense of pressure when he looks down at people.
Rong Zi sighed inwardly.
Such a cool apprentice, if you take him out in the future, he'll be so stylish!
No sooner had Rong Zi thought this than Ling Mo suddenly took out a small pouch from the ring on his hand, handed it to Gu Xiaochui who was standing at the front, and said, "This is a thank-you gift."
Among the three, Gu Xiaochui has the highest cultivation level and is also the oldest.
Ling Mo naturally assumed that he was the one in charge among the three.
Gu Xiaochui held the bag of mustard seeds in his hands, blinking blankly.
He hesitated for a moment, then silently opened the mustard seed bag in his hand and looked inside with his head down.
Seeing this, Rong Zi stepped out from behind Gu Xiaochui with an air of righteousness, then looked up at Ling Mo in front of him and said in a serious tone, "What are you doing? We saved you not to ask for your reward."
This is her future apprentice.
In order to successfully recruit apprentices.
I have to leave a good impression on my future apprentice, right?
Thinking of this, Rong Zi reached out to refuse, "We firmly refuse this gift..."
"Master."
Gu Xiaochui suddenly tugged at her arm and leaned in to interrupt her.
Rong Zi paused for a moment, "Hmm?"
Gu Xiaochui glanced at Ling Mo and cleared his throat.
He placed the open mustard seed bag in front of Rong Zi and then lowered his voice to say, "Well, take a look first."
Rong Zi looked at the mustard seed bag in Gu Xiaochui's hand with a puzzled expression.
However, the next second, she was almost blinded by the light.
It was filled with top-grade spirit stones!
Even a few would cost tens of thousands of yuan!
Rong Zi opened her mouth, her eyes widening in shock.
Good heavens, he casually pulled out tens of thousands of spirit stones.
He truly deserves to be the young master of the Ling family, one of the seven great cultivation families.
How can someone be so incredibly wealthy?
Ling Mo, not waiting for her to continue, asked, "What are you so determined about?"
“Absolutely…” Rong Zi’s eyes flickered slightly, and he swiftly snatched the mustard seed bag. His tone suddenly changed, “Absolutely we cannot go against your wishes!”
"Although we saved you without expecting anything in return, I know you are a grateful person. Since you are so sincere, we will reluctantly accept this gift."
As Rong Zi spoke, she skillfully stuffed the mustard seed bag directly into her ring.
No rush, no rush.
Her apprentice can't escape.
A good impression can be built up gradually.
Ling Mo: "..."
Gu Xiaochui and Yun Jing were already used to their master's behavior, and their expressions remained calm.
Ling Mo didn't mind, nodded slightly and said, "In that case, farewell."
After saying that, he lifted his foot and walked outside.
Rong Zi quickly chased after him, calling out, "Wait! Wait a minute!"
