After saying this, Qin Chuan followed Qu Zhengqing and left.
The five brothers, the Invincible Grandmaster, were left standing there, their faces contorted in a grimace.
"What does Qin Chuan mean by this? Does he want to submit to the Invincible Sect?" Su Daiyuan asked, puzzled.
"No way! Absolutely not! Who does he think he is, daring to covet my junior sister? I'll smash his head flat with one punch in a moment!" Lu Qing'an clenched his fists tightly, the veins on the back of his hands bulging.
"It's a pity I didn't learn how to make poison pills from Fellow Daoist Zhao back then, otherwise I could poison Qin Chuan to death right now." Lu Jingshen said with a forced smile towards the dark cave entrance ahead.
"Don't hold me back, I'll cover him in explosive talismans right now, I'll blow him up!" Yu Ye grabbed Guan Yunchuan with one hand and a mustard seed bag full of talismans with the other.
“I didn’t drag your fourth senior brother along. Here’s the deal: you’re in charge of applying the talismans, and I’ll take care of firing. We’ll kill him together!” Guan Yunchuan said in a stern voice with a straight face.
Fang Chong, who only had a bunch of clueless junior brothers, had never seen such a scene before.
He secretly ran up to Sheng Ning and whispered, "Fellow Daoist Sheng, have your senior brothers always been this... lively?"
Sheng Ning was amused by the adjectives he used.
Fang Chong was taken aback by the smile and said, "Fellow Daoist Qin is right, Fellow Daoist Sheng, you are really good-looking."
Even in the Flying Flower Sect, Fang Chong had never seen such a beautiful female cultivator.
Moreover, Sheng Ning possesses a wide range of skills, including weapon crafting, alchemy, talisman drawing, and strategic planning, making him arguably the most perfect all-rounder.
A junior sister like this would be adorable no matter where she is, right?
Since Sheng Ning is so likable.
Why did the Taixu Sect expel her from the sect in the first place? Why did Qu Zhengqing and Xi Zhen hate her so much?
Fang Chong was filled with questions, and before those questions could be answered one by one, he felt hostile gazes coming from all directions.
When he turned around, he saw that Su Daiyuan and the others had stopped their discussion at some point.
The five of them turned to look at him, staring at him as if he were their father's killer.
"Fellow Daoist Fang also thinks my junior sister is pretty?" Lu Qing'an smiled, cracking her knuckles in front of him.
Upon seeing this, Fang Chong immediately swallowed hard and shook his head like a sieve, "It's not good-looking, it's not good-looking."
"Oh? Fellow Daoist Fang thinks my junior sister isn't pretty?" Guan Yunchuan took out his laser cannon and pointed it at his face.
Fang Chong was so frightened that he quickly hid behind Sheng Ning and pleaded with him in a distressed tone, "Fellow Daoist Sheng, your senior brother is so scary."
Sheng Ning patted his sleeve, signaling him to calm down. "Senior brothers, can we go now?"
Just as she finished speaking, her five senior brothers immediately stood against the wall, saying, "Junior sister, watch your step."
They looked well-trained.
Like mercenaries.
Fang Chong: ......
He had seen hypocrites before, but he had never seen such hypocrites as the Invincible Sect.
It seems that whatever his junior sister says is more effective than what his master says.
Little did they know that the Invincible Sect's master, who was far away on the mainland, was even more unreliable than his disciples.
Thanks to the cold-resistant pills refined by Lu Jingshen, the group's journey was relatively smooth.
Apart from the occasional butterfly or moth darting out from a dark corner, the only sound in the entire cave was the footsteps of Sheng Ning and his companions.
When the group arrived at a fork in the road with their torches, they stopped.
"What? Where did Fellow Daoist Qin and the others go?"
Three forks in the road, each perhaps representing a different ending.
Sheng Ning changed her previous smiling expression, frowned slightly, and said, "The most urgent thing now is to find Fellow Daoist Xie and the others."
Ye Si said that he saw a huge cocoon.
Perhaps Xie Wenxuan and his group are inside that giant cocoon.
If they had arrived even a moment later...
Sheng Ning took a deep breath, the bone-chilling cold making her throat bob.
The moment the pig-like insects appeared, they seemed to feel, perhaps due to their own imagination, that the surrounding temperature had dropped considerably.
"Mommy, your sweetheart misses you~"
Her soft, sweet voice gave the people around her goosebumps.
Sheng Ning seemed quite used to it, raising her hand to touch the horns of the pig-worm that had just grown a little. Seeing the enjoyment on the latter's face, she finally spoke.
"My dear son, could you please check again to see where the dragon's breath you left behind is now?"
The dragon breath left on Xie Wenxuan by the pigworm has almost dissipated.
In order not to disappoint her mother, the pig-like insect closed its golden eyes and tried its best to sense the fluctuations of spiritual energy around it.
The chill in the air returned and seemed poised to intensify.
Standing there waiting for the pig-like insect to open its eyes again and give its answer, Sheng Ning suddenly felt a chill run down her back.
She turned around and looked back, only to find that there was nothing behind her, just endless darkness.
When she turned back with a furrowed brow, she saw the pig-ear worm slowly open its golden eyes.
Once its eyes regained their clarity, Sheng Ning asked it, "Did my little one sense anything?"
The little pig swayed the dragon tail coiled around her arm and said in a soft voice, "My dear, I only sensed that dragon's breath lingering here."
“There is no trace of dragon breath left by the good boy there.”
Pointing to the far right fork in the road with its tail, the little pig-like insect nestled against Sheng Ning's arm, looking aggrieved. "Mother, is my little boy really useless?"
Upon hearing this, Sheng Ning raised her hand and gently stroked its head, smiling, "My good boy is already very capable. When you go out in the future, your mother will definitely reward you well."
Even after receiving the reward, the pig-worm was not happy.
Its mother was incredibly powerful, yet it couldn't even detect a trace of its own dragon breath.
It is the most useless mythical beast in the world.
The little worm lay listlessly on Sheng Ning's arm, and this time it did not return to Sheng Ning's consciousness space.
Sheng Ning didn't have the energy to continue comforting it, so she could only gently rub its head while discussing with her fellow disciples which fork in the road to take.
Of the three forks in the road, the pigworm had already eliminated one for them.
If we're lucky, we might be able to find Xie Wenxuan among the remaining two.
"We will split into two groups. Fellow Daoist Fang, Third Senior Brother, and I will go to the left, while you, Eldest Senior Brother, will go to the middle."
Although Su Daiyuan and the others were worried about Sheng Ning, fearing that something might happen to her.
But Xie Wenxuan and the others' affairs cannot be delayed.
After receiving Fang Chong's repeated assurances that he would take good care of Sheng Ning, Su Daiyuan and the others watched Sheng Ning and the other two enter the far right fork in the road before entering the middle fork.
Sheng Ning had always thought she was lucky, but she never expected her luck to be this good.
She took the pig-like insects with her, and soon after, she entered the right fork in the road with her third senior brother and Fang Chong.
A huge natural ice cellar appeared before them.
Before them lay the enormous cocoon that Ye Si had described.
