C62 A Personal Maid?
C62 A Personal Maid?
Everyone finally understood what was going on, and they all revealed looks of respect and envy.
"Cultivator is truly a proud son of heaven. If we can step into the Cultivation Realm one day, then we'll be able to reach the heavens in a single bound!"
"That's right. The cultivator is really too powerful. The Demonic Beast we encountered earlier... We didn't even get a clear look at what the Demonic Beast looked like before we were pressured to the point that we couldn't breathe. It was almost as if it was going to faint, but as soon as the cultivator appeared... That Demonic Beast immediately fled in panic. "
"That's right, that's right! That cultivator is riding on a flying sword and flying in the air. He is really too cool!"
The students of Dongzhou College were all discussing spiritedly. Many of them revealed looks of fascination, hoping that one day they would also become a cultivator.
Many of the female students were even looking at Cheng Qinluo who was standing proudly in the distance with strange looks in their eyes. They were looking forward to Cheng Qinluo taking a fancy to them and choosing them as his partners. They didn't need to train hard at all. They could reach the sky in a single bound.
Zhu Ziqiao, on the other hand, secretly frowned. Looking at the excited expressions on the students' faces, she faintly felt that something was not right.
"Senior Sister Le, since this place is so dangerous, and even the cultivator of the Myriad Sword Sect is here, why do the elders of the academy still want us, Junior Cultivating Warrior, to come here?" Zhu Ziqiao asked in a low voice.
"This... Perhaps they want us to increase our knowledge."
Le Xuannian said with uncertainty.
Previously, the teachers and elders of the academy had asked these students to come over. They said it was for training and at the same time, it was also to prevent others from obtaining rare treasures.
However, along the way, they had encountered many dangers, especially that Demonic Beast. If it wasn't for the cultivator from the Myriad Sword Sect, who knew how many of them would have survived with so many of them.
Such a dangerous place made Le Xuannian realize that they didn't even have the qualifications to interfere in the fight for the rare treasure.
Even the elders of the academy were obviously the ones who took charge of the cultivator from the Myriad Sword Sect.
Since that was the case, why did the academy send these students over?
"Senior Sister Le, no matter what we do later, we have to be careful." Zhu Ziqiao said softly, "Our Cultivation Level is too low. Any random Demonic Beast that appears here can easily take our lives."
"Junior Sister Zhu is right. We have to be careful."
Le Xuannian's expression also became serious. The two girls realized that the academy did not just let them come here to broaden their horizons.
As expected!
An elder suddenly flew over and landed on the ground. He said in a clear voice, "Students, you have all seen the place where the rare treasure was born. This rare treasure is a Blue Fire, a type of Heaven-earth Genuine Fire. It is extremely precious! "
All the students could not help but be shocked. Heaven-earth Genuine Fire? This was truly a rare treasure!
Especially those who were ambitious enough to become alchemists or Artifact-refining Master, their eyes widened abruptly. Heaven-earth Genuine Fire! This was a flame that had gathered the essence of the world, a flame that had taken countless years to form. It was not enough to describe the preciousness of the Heaven-earth Genuine Fire even if it was said to be a rare treasure!
Any kind of Heaven-earth Genuine Fire that was refined would be of great help to an alchemist or Artifact-refining Master.
When they thought of the rare treasure in the dense green light ahead, which was actually a Heaven-earth Genuine Fire, almost everyone became excited.
Even Zhu Ziqiao's eyes could not help but light up.
She immediately thought of Lin Cheng. That little thief was an alchemist, so he definitely needed a kind of Heaven-earth Genuine Fire as the flame for concocting pills.
"However, there is a problem now. The Heaven-earth Genuine Fire is located in the Boundless Valley. This deep valley is the place where the mighty beings of Ancient Times fight the Extraterrestrial Evil Devil. It contains a unique Power Rule. It will create a tremendous pressure on the cultivator above the Core Sea Stage. On the contrary, the Cultivating Warrior below the Core Sea Stage isn't suppressed at all. "
The elder said, "Therefore, we will have to rely on you students to collect the Blue Fire this time!"
Everyone's face couldn't help but reveal a joyful expression. Some of their eyes even flashed with a trace of greed.
"Everyone, you must remember that although the Power Rule in Boundless Valley has no effect on the Cultivating Warrior, it still has no effect on it. But there are many dangers... There are Demonic Beasts roaming around, the rules of collapse, and even countless dangers such as spatial turbulence!"
The elder's words were like a bucket of cold water being poured on their heads, causing their hearts to turn cold and their faces to be filled with astonishment.
"However, you don't have to worry too much. As long as you don't wander around randomly after going down, you'll be fine as long as you follow the path where the plants are growing."
A satisfied expression flashed across the elder's eyes. He knew that these students were stunned, but this alone was not enough to deter them from secretly hiding anything. Thus, his expression sank as he said:
"Also, after you collect the Blue Fire, you must come to the designated location. The Boundless Valley ran through the entire Boundless Forest, and it was filled with countless dangers. It didn't matter which direction you were heading to, it didn't matter. There is no way you can walk out of this valley. Only a few of our elders and experts from the Myriad Sword Sect are here. Only by stabilizing a place will you be able to get out safely!"
He swept his gaze across the students and found that all of their faces had changed. Some of the students even had pale faces. Only then did he nod his head in satisfaction. He suddenly shouted out loudly, "Do you remember all of them?"
This voice contained a trace of Spirit Power. When it entered the ears of the students, it was simply like a sudden clap of thunder that exploded out. It caused everyone to be frightened and deeply imprinted in their hearts.
"Alright, next, line up in a few rows and go to the elders to receive the jade bottles. Use the jade bottles to store the Blue Fire that you have received and bring it up!" That elder said again.
All the students had long been frightened by his words and were extremely nervous. When they heard this, they immediately obediently went to receive the jade bottles.
Zhu Ziqiao and Le Xuannian were also in the queue and there was some worry in the eyes of the two girls. Indeed, their previous worries had come true.
No one would have thought that they originally thought that they were just here to increase their knowledge and help the academy to prevent others from obtaining treasures but who would have thought that it would actually turn into them going into the deep valley to collect the Blue Fire!
Just from listening to what the elder said, one could tell what kind of danger was contained within. Of course, as a Cultivating Warrior, they naturally did not need to fear danger. But the elder's last words made Zhu Ziqiao and ___'s hearts turn cold.
This was to treat them as laborers and go down into the depths of the valley to collect the Blue Fire. However, they also had to prevent them from secretly hiding. They could only come up from the designated location and naturally, they would have to accept their search.
This kind of cold and ruthless treatment made the two girls' hearts turn cold.
Very quickly, it was Zhu Ziqiao and Zhu Ziqiao's turn to receive the jade bottle, and they were informed of the method to collect the Blue Fire.
"Ziqiao, you must remember the things that Third Elder said before, right? When we get to the bottom, you have to be careful!" After passing by Seventh Elder Shui Hui, she reminded Zhu Ziqiao.
"Yes, Master. Disciple will remember." Zhu Ziqiao nodded.
"That's good."
Shui Hui slightly nodded her head. Just as she was about to speak, she suddenly heard a surprised voice from the side, "Huh?"
She immediately turned around. A smile suddenly appeared on her originally expressionless face. "Senior Brother Cheng, is there a problem?"
Not far away from her, Cheng Qinluo's gaze landed on Zhu Ziqiao. He sized her up and down and nodded slightly. "This girl is not bad. I happen to lack a personal maidservant by my side. What's your name?"
0
Shui Hui's face revealed a trace of astonishment. She never thought that Cheng Qinluo actually took a fancy to Zhu Ziqiao. This made her heart skip a beat.
One should know that Zhu Ziqiao was a genius with a deep blue affinity with spiritual energy. She could be said to be a seedling of the Immortal Dao. Her future was limitless!
Initially, she planned to nurture Zhu Ziqiao well, and then let her join the Myriad Sword Sect when she reached the Core Sea Stage. Become a disciple of the ___! An inner sect disciple of the Myriad Sword Sect, or even a personal disciple of an elder. With Zhu Ziqiao's talent, this was not a difficult matter.
With this, Shui Hui's status would definitely rise, and she would also be able to obtain a higher level cultivation technique. Not only would it greatly increase her Cultivation Level, it would also increase her lifespan by a large margin.
If she were to give Zhu Ziqiao to Cheng Qinluo just like that, she would really feel somewhat unwilling in her heart.
However, Shui Hui would never be able to speak of this insider information. If she told him Zhu Ziqiao's talent, Cheng Qinluo would be even more determined to leave her. One. maidservant, who had extraordinary talent, was destined to be Cheng Qinluo's person for the rest of her life. No matter how great Zhu Ziqiao's future achievements were, there would always be a shadow of Cheng Qinluo in her heart.
This was equivalent to picking up a peerless genius for nothing. How could Cheng Qinluo give up on such a good thing?
But if he refused Cheng Qinluo...
It was not good to say, nor good to say!
For a moment, Shui Hui's face alternated between green and purple. It was truly wonderful to the extreme.
"Hmm?"
Cheng Qinluo did not notice the change in Shui Hui's expression. He only saw... When the beautiful girl heard his words, she actually frowned. A look of disgust flashed across her eyes. Then... she actually turned her head away and ignored him!
Cheng Qinluo's expression immediately darkened. He frowned slightly and asked, "What's your name?"
Zhu Ziqiao frowned. Cheng Qinluo's gaze made her very uncomfortable. It was as if he was looking at her own servant and it made Zhu Ziqiao feel disgusted in her heart.
Furthermore, Zhu Ziqiao naturally understood what Cheng Qinluo meant. He actually wanted her to be his personal maidservant?
If it wasn't for the fact that her Cultivation Level was too weak, Zhu Ziqiao would have already lashed him.
