Chapter 16 It’s too hot in Gyeongju!
The alarm from the Book of Beasts suddenly sounded. Xu Xingxing, who had been idle for a long time, suddenly stood up and grabbed Fang Zhiming's sleeve: "I'm going too!"
Fang Zhiming of course agreed.
So, the two of them went back to their rooms to pack their things.
Xu Xingxing sent a message to Xiao Hei in advance, and after he finished packing, he went out to wait. He saw two people waiting in the yard, a man and a woman, both of whom were at the Jindan stage.
The man hurriedly stepped forward upon seeing Xu Xingxing, bowing first and being very attentive. "I presume this fairy sister must be Senior Sister Xu, right? My surname is Qin, my given name is Feng, and I am a disciple of Master Xue. Senior Sister Xu's name is a household name. Today, I have had the pleasure of seeing her in person. She is truly graceful and elegant, radiant like a spring flower. I fall in love with her at first sight, and it's hard to contain my feelings—"
"Fuck you." Fang Zhiming slapped Qin Feng on the head. "Are you a peacock, spreading your tail everywhere?"
Qin Feng covered his head and was about to draw his sword: "Fang Zhiming, don't think that just because you are the master's disciple you have the right to control me. Master said that I am fully responsible for this operation!"
"That was Old Man Xue's trick to coax you. If it weren't for your decent attainments, do you think it would be your turn?" Fang Zhiming raised his chin slightly. "Well, do you want to confront the Sect Master? Let me warn you, this is an urgent matter. You won't be able to bear the consequences if you delay!"
"If you weren't incapable, why would the Sect Leader let me go with you—"
Xu Xingxing hurriedly stepped between the two and said, "Stop! You're already arguing before we even leave. Why don't you both stay away? I can go alone."
"Senior Sister is going too?" Qin Feng's face, which had just been furious, suddenly became as bright as the morning sun. "Then I will naturally listen to you!"
After saying that, he gave Fang Zhiming a blank look.
Xu Xingxing laughed awkwardly and said, "But I lack experience and still need your senior brother's guidance."
Fang Zhiming also laughed: "Of course I will tell you everything I know. Some people should be more restrained if they want to survive."
Seeing that Qin Feng was about to draw his sword again, Xu Xingxing quickly called out to the woman who had been standing quietly beside him, interrupting the two elementary school students' cockfighting: "Fellow Daoist, what is your name?"
“Me…me?” The woman was suddenly startled when her name was called. “Sister… just call me Lin Yue.”
"Lin Yue? Yueyue, I'll just call you Yueyue," Xu Xingxing said with a friendly smile. "You look familiar to me. Have we met somewhere before?"
"I am a disciple of Doctor Gu Nuo, specializing in medicine. We met before when my senior sister was recuperating there." Lin Yue whispered shyly, her voice very gentle.
After receiving Xu Xingxing's message, Xiao Hei hurried back. When he saw everyone in the yard, he couldn't help but frowned slightly. Xu Xingxing came forward and quietly pulled his sleeve, and Xiao Hei relaxed his brows.
At first he was very resistant to these little actions and she still refused to change after being stopped several times. But later he gradually got used to it.
After Fang Zhiming saw that everyone had arrived, he announced that they were ready to set off, and the five of them sped towards Qingzhou City.

I couldn't count how many people had eaten this, three hundred? Or five hundred? It just tasted sour and astringent, unpalatable.
Why do we need to practice, why do we need to be promoted, isn’t it good to be a speck of dust?
But that god would actually say to himself: Then I will help you again.
I really want to stand by his side and let him drive me, I really want to crawl at his feet and be at his disposal.
But why is it so weak? Why does it try so hard to eat this smelly flesh and blood, but can't even simply transform into a human form?
That day, if the village chief had not also hidden a Star-Point clone in his body, it would have disappeared from this world.
Thinking of this, it suddenly panicked. The monks around the god were so powerful. When would it be qualified to get close to the god?
"Huh? What's that?" A voice suddenly rang out from behind. It was immediately startled and quickly and secretly dispersed the thick liquid.
"It seems to be of the same kind, but its demonic energy is too weak."
"Fly meat is still meat, so I'll absorb as much as I can. I've been hurt so badly since escaping the Ten Thousand Demons Cave, and I can't eat humans like I used to. I can only eat small demons."
Its body was suspended in mid-air, being pulled in a certain direction, while at this moment it heard a sound like thunder in its ears.
Is this still possible?
It turned around with joy and couldn't wait to get into the mouth that was wide open towards it.
It was not difficult to take possession of the monster's body. After being used to eating sour human flesh, it found the filthy monster's body unusually sweet. It was like a dried fish finding water, not letting go of every inch of the monster's flesh and blood, and finally took the monster's skin for itself.
It straightened up, and for the first time, it felt a body that fitted it so well. It couldn't help but stretch. It looked at the frightened monster beside it and said the first words it could speak:
"The true god of demons has strayed into the mortal world and lost his memory. Tell the demons to save our master from danger as soon as possible. Time is of the essence!"

The sky was covered with heavy snow, it was pitch dark, the road ahead was unclear and I couldn't see.
When the five people flew on swords to the border of Qingzhou, they had to put down their swords and walk because of the severe snowstorm. The sky and the earth were vast, and everything they saw was pure white. They could only see a few people around them.
Qin Feng put his cloak on Xu Xingxing and said with a worried look: "Senior Sister, take care of yourself and don't catch a cold."
The wind and snow were extremely strong. Xu Xingxing took off his cloak and handed it to the thinner Lin Yue beside him: "Yueyue, your breathing seems unstable. I don't need this cloak, you wear it."
Lin Yue quickly declined, waving her hand and saying, "Senior Sister, you can put it on. I'm not cold."
Qin Feng took out another cloak from his bag: "It's okay, Junior Sister Lin Yue, I still have one."
Lin Yue was about to refuse, but Fang Zhiming, standing beside her, forced her to put on the cloak. "You've just formed your core, so you're not as adept at circulating your spiritual energy as others. Just take it, and don't try to be stubborn."
Qin Feng opened his cloak and pretended to put it on Xu Xingxing.
Xu Xingxing pressed his hand down and said, "I'm already a Nascent Soul. This temperature has no effect on me at all. You can use it yourself."
"I have it," Qin Feng handed it over again firmly, "I brought several with me, including the quilts."
Suddenly, a hand as white as snow took it, and Xiao Hei put it on himself, raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "I want it."
"I want some too!" Fang Zhiming reached out to grab Qin Feng's bag. "How much stuff did you bring? Old Man Xue must have given you quite a few treasures."
"No! Let go! Let go of my Qiankun bag! I'm going to do it!"
Xiao Hei ignored the noise behind him and walked forward with Xu Xingxing in his hand.
The moment Xiao Hei's hand touched her, an extremely hot temperature spread from his hand to her whole body. She looked up in surprise, only to see that he was also looking at her.
Those snow-covered eyes were filled with contentment, and his bright red lips looked like plum blossoms in full bloom in the snow. He raised the corners of his lips slightly, "How do you feel? Is it much warmer than this cloak?"
That’s true, but... it’s too hot!
Xu Xingxing struggled to break free from the scorching palm: "I'm sweating, can you lower the temperature a bit?"
Xiao Hei said nothing, but did not let go. The corners of his lips curled up even more, and like a mischievous child, he pulled her straight forward.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, they saw a few lights a hundred meters ahead. Those people must have seen them, and the lights were moving quickly towards them.
There were several people dressed as servants. They were wearing thick clothes and straw raincoats. When they saw them, they all bowed and said, "I believe you are the immortals from Kunlun. My master asked us to wait here. The weather in Qingzhou is cold. Please follow me quickly."
As soon as they stepped into the city, everyone could clearly feel that the temperature in Gyeongju City seemed to have warmed up a lot, and even the snow had become noticeably less.
Without waiting for anyone to ask, the leading servant explained, "You immortals, you may not know that the snow has been falling in Qingzhou for over a month. If my master hadn't donated his magical weapon, the Cold-Repelling Pearl, many people in this city would have frozen to death. While the people are fine, the crops in the fields are likely to be completely destroyed."
"Who is your master? How could he have such a magic weapon?" Qin Feng asked.
"This man's name is Qi Rongli. He's Master Yue's nephew." Fang Zhiming sighed. "At the end of the Demon-Chasing War, Senior Qi was the head of the Beast Taming Sect. His natal spirit beast died tragically in the battle, and his cultivation was completely lost. After the war, he left Kunlun and went down the mountain."
"How did he know we would come?" Lin Yue asked in a low voice.
"Half a month ago, Kunlun sent people to investigate here. Later, the two Daoist friends suddenly disappeared. Later, Master Qi sent a message to Kunlun, telling Master that he had saved someone by chance. Judging from his appearance, he looked like a Kunlun cultivator, so he told him to recuperate in the mansion. He sent someone to pick him up today. Master must have informed him in advance, which is why he did this."
"Why didn't my master tell me anything?" Qin Feng asked with a frown.
"Maybe they think you're too fussy and too picky about tasks."
"How could that be! Next time, why don't you just tell me that my senior sister is going too?"
Fang Zhiming: ???
"Why haven't I seen you admire Senior Sister so much before?"
Qin Feng chuckled and said, "I am not only impressed by Senior Sister's temperament, but also feel like we've known each other for a long time. Isn't it a pity that we met too late?"
"I remember you once claimed that you were the most favored son of Kunlun. If Xu Xing'er wasn't the daughter of the sect leader, I'm afraid you wouldn't be here—" Fang Zhiming's mouth was suddenly covered by someone.
Qin Feng blinked desperately: "Please, Senior Brother, can you please stop talking! I was young and ignorant at that time, and I didn't know the immensity of the world, okay?"
As they were laughing and joking, they arrived at the Qi Mansion without realizing it.
From a distance, I saw several people waiting in front of the door, among whom was a 28-year-old woman who was waving wildly at this place.
Perhaps because they were too slow, he ran over to greet them. From a distance, he opened his arms and flew over, giving Xu Xingxing a bear hug.
Xu Xingxing was surprised: "Why are you here? Qi Rongli? Is he your brother?"
Qi Danxuan blushed inexplicably. "He's not really my biological brother, but I'm several doors away from him. I just grew up here and was introduced to Kunlun by my brother."
Xu Xingxing looked at Qi Danxuan, a young girl in love, and seemed to smell the scent of gossip.
Qi Danxuan led everyone to a young man in a green cloak and introduced him, "This is my brother, Qi Rongli. Just follow me and call him brother."
