"Whoosh~"
Just as Lu Li was maneuvering the flying boat away from the original route, a sharp sword aura flashed across the path they had just been on.
If Lu Li hadn't adjusted his route in time, the sword energy would probably have landed on their flying boat.
Upon seeing this, Lu Li's face flashed with displeasure. He scanned the people still fighting outside with his divine sense, and almost without thinking, he turned around and prepared to leave.
Unexpectedly, the female cultivator who was being attacked seemed to have seen through his plan. She recklessly stuck a high-level speed-up talisman on her body and rushed straight towards his flying boat.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, please do me a favor!"
As he rushed over, he shouted loudly, clearly recognizing his flying boat.
After glancing at the female cultivator rushing towards them, those who were besieging her began to subtly hold back, desperately pretending that they couldn't catch up, but in reality, they were waiting for the female cultivator to catch up with their flying boat.
Now, Lu Li understood everything. Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately increased the speed of the flying boat to its maximum.
With a whoosh, just as the female cultivator was about to catch up, they completely distanced themselves, leaving them behind, and quickly fled. In no time, they flew far away and were reduced to a tiny dot.
The female cultivator was clearly not expecting Lu Li to react this way. She rushed out a distance before stopping, standing there blankly, somewhat bewildered.
She was completely baffled. According to the normal procedure, shouldn't she have been able to escape as planned, but luckily ran into an acquaintance and been rescued by a hero, who then took her aboard his flying boat?
Then they were in a room together and had a pleasant conversation. He was happy to see her, and she was grateful to him for saving her life. She offered herself to him, and they fell in love.
If she then bravely and patiently recounts her current predicament, he will be able to help her; that would make sense, wouldn't it?
But now that she's only just appeared, the target has already fled, avoiding her like the plague, as if she were some kind of monster. What does that mean?
As the number one beauty of the Yulin Continent and a top figure on the Heavenly Pride Ranking, she was always the one men couldn't tear their feet away from. No one had ever avoided her like this before, which infuriated her.
Qi Xinhe, who had recently taken office as the new sect leader of the Cangyan Sect, became increasingly angry as he looked at the flying boat, which had shrunk to a tiny dot, and couldn't help but curse fiercely.
"Damn it, why can't they have even a little bit of compassion and do something heroic!"
After cursing, she still felt a heavy sense of resentment in her heart, so she used her spiritual power to create a gust of wind and ravaged the forest below, only then did she feel a little relieved.
Just as she was about to leave, she was blocked by the same group of people: "Sect Leader Qi, please settle the remaining spirit stones."
Upon hearing this, Qi Xinhe, who had just recovered some of her composure, instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot again, and replied in an extremely nasty tone: "You haven't even done your job properly, what are you doing collecting spirit stones?"
After saying that, she turned around and tried to leave, but the next moment, those people blocked her way again.
"I don't care about that. What we said is what we said. We've done what we were supposed to do. It's your business if you didn't manage to get close to Master Lu. Sect Leader Qi, you're not trying to renege on your promise, are you? We brothers aren't pushovers."
The person on the other end spoke this last sentence in a threatening tone. After saying it, he released a powerful aura, demonstrating with his strength that he would not allow anyone to renege on this debt.
Qi Xinhe was just lucky to get the position, and with the help of certain methods, he became the new sect leader of the Cangyan Sect. His strength was also built up by consuming pills.
Faced with the other party's overwhelming pressure, she could only throw a storage bag over with a dark face: "The spirit stones are all inside."
The burly man didn't care at all about Qi Xinhe's dark face. He took the storage bag and began counting the spirit stones inside.
Only after confirming that the quantity was correct and there was no shortage did he signal the people below to make way, and then said to Qi Xinhe in a rather cheerful mood.
"Sect Leader Qi, please come to us again if something like this happens next time."
Qi Xinhe's face darkened immediately upon hearing this. She ignored them completely and walked away without looking back, as if a dog was chasing her.
In truth, she brought this trouble upon herself, mainly because of the upcoming power ranking competition.
Because of the former sect leader Qu Yangxia, the strength of the Cangyan Sect has plummeted, and it seems that they have no chance at all in the upcoming power ranking competition.
But she was unwilling to let the Cangyan Sect be reduced to a second-rate or even third-rate force, led by a small sect she had once looked down upon.
So she came up with a terrible idea: to seduce Lu Li of the Liuyue Sect and then use Lu Li and the Liuyue Sect's influence to help the Cangyan Sect.
To this end, she spent a lot of money to hire people to guard outside the Liuyue Sect, so that Lu Li could leave the sect as soon as he was discovered.
She staged this scene on his inevitable route, pretending to be chased and waiting for him to come to her rescue.
She thought that even if Lu Li didn't take the bait in the end, as long as he let her into his flying boat, she would have a way to leverage the power of the Flowing Moon Sect.
Even if the Azure Flame Sect can no longer maintain its position among the top powers, other powers will not dare to underestimate them, and not everyone will dare to step on them.
And she can also benefit the Cangyan Sect as a result, and those dissenting voices against her becoming the sect leader will certainly not dare to show their faces again.
Unexpectedly, Lu Li didn't even show his face, giving her no chance at all, and just ran away. All her plans came to nothing, which made her feel incredibly frustrated.
They tried to embezzle the spirit stones that hadn't been given yet, but those guys directly suppressed them with force.
Unfortunately, to prevent others from getting a freebie, she didn't bring anyone with her. Since she couldn't beat these people herself, she could only suppress her anger and pay the remaining spirit stones.
Thinking about how she had spent a huge sum of spirit stones without getting any return, Qi Xinhe felt like she was going to vomit blood. However, what she hated even more was Lu Li's lack of romantic understanding.
Lu Li was naturally unaware of this, or rather, even if he knew, he wouldn't care. After all, what did it matter to him whether unimportant people liked him or not?
To avoid being disturbed by these strange people on the journey ahead, Lu Li returned to his old ways and disguised himself.
As for the yam, it also transformed into a human form, a can even fatter than a gas cylinder, after all, this was only the first day of the seven-day period for the thorny sunflower.
However, compared to the pitifully swollen little ones of the Liuyue Sect, Shushu's swelling was much less.
Because Lu Li secretly applied the antidote for the thorny sunflower that their second uncle had just developed to Shushu, although it still couldn't immediately stop the effects of the medicine, it at least reduced the swelling considerably.
So, on the way from Liuyue Sect to Lieguang Volcano, the cultivators saw a handsome male cultivator carrying an adorable human cub in his arms.
