C155 To Suam Mountain
When Liu Jiachuan had appeared earlier, his presence had already intimidated them quite a bit. Coupled with the aftershocks from the battle between Xia Ling and the Congealing Void Middle Rank cultivator, these ordinary people were unable to hold on. They were all unconscious and had no intention of waking up.
Wei Xianli and the rest's bodies were already corroded by the Yin Qi. Even as ordinary people, their physical qualities were terrible. If they were allowed to lie here for an entire night, it might even be life-threatening.
Although Xia Ling was not a good person, it was not as if he did not care about relationships. Although Wei Xianli had only just met him, he treated him very warmly. He did not dislike this timid middle-aged man. Of course, he couldn't be allowed to die here.
As for the others, since they were all Wei Xianli's family members, Xia Ling could help them too.
When the sun rose, Wei Xianli and the others woke up and were surprised to find that they were lying in their own lobby.
Xia Ling and Bai Lou were sitting on the side, while the girl was still sound asleep, while Xia Ling was still awake.
"This... "What's going on?" Wei Xianli was still confused. He felt that his hands and feet were a bit heavy. In a daze, he seemed to be able to recall what happened last night.
Even though Xia Ling didn't sleep all night, his spirit didn't show any signs of exhaustion. His expression was normal as he explained: "Yesterday, after I broke through this' haunted 'formation, I attracted a middle stage Congealing Void cultivator. It was his aura that immediately knocked you all unconscious."
"Intermediate level Congealing Void?!" Wei Xianli jumped up when he heard those words. Even though his family was rich and powerful in Pingxing City, they were only in the old days doing business. Towards these powerful cultivators that could overturn rivers and seas, he had always been fearful.
As for the middle level Congealing Void, it was even more so a Supreme Elder amongst cultivators!
Xia Ling smiled bitterly and shook his head. This Wei Xianli was quite gutsy, he could be scared to this extent just by hearing about him. He soothed, "It doesn't matter, he's already been killed. There will be no more trouble for you. "
Xia Ling, on the other hand, neglected this matter. To ordinary people, the middle stage of Congealing Void was indeed an unreachable existence. Even the mere mention of his name was enough to make anyone tremble with fear.
"Is that so … "Then I'm relieved." Wei Xianli's mind also cleared up a bit as he remembered what happened last night. When he thought about how his family's ghost business had been completely eliminated, he was still extremely excited and repeatedly expressed his gratitude.
"Thank you so much. You have truly saved our family. No matter what you want, I will …" Wei Xianli couldn't wait to express his thanks.
"No need." Xia Ling refused without any hesitation. Honestly speaking, his own family property was not at all inferior to the Wei Family of an era's merchant. And most of them were even the most valuable Jade Scallop.
Also, Xia Ling himself didn't think too highly of the money, so he obviously wouldn't accept Wei Xianli's gift.
"If you have nothing else, I will be on my way."
Wei Xianli had always been very cordial. Xia Ling had helped him so much, how could he let him go just like that? But Xia Ling was very determined, and with his cold and aloof temperament, Wei Xianli didn't dare to keep him.
Just like this, Xia Ling arrived at dawn. He once again headed north.
However, there was now another person beside him.
When Xia Ling was about to leave, Bai Lou still hadn't woken up yet. It was obviously unrealistic for a twenty-something year old girl to be as energetic as Xia Ling. Last night, the young girl hadn't actually planned to sleep either, but she had been unable to hold on for much longer and had fallen asleep at an unknown time.
When she woke up, Xia Ling had already finished his pleasantries with Wei Xianli and was ready to leave. Bai Lou was getting impatient. She was going to go with him.
Therefore, the girl quickly said a few words to Wei Xianli, grabbed her luggage in a hurry and hung it behind Xia Ling.
Of course, Xia Ling had also noticed her. However, the girl wasn't too close to him. Since he didn't want to talk to her, Xia Ling just let her follow.
He even let out a chuckle in his heart. So that was the idea that came into her mind yesterday.
That's right, Bai Lou was thinking the same thing. If you don't want me to be with you, then I can just follow you myself, right?
The young girl Bai Lou could see that although Xia Ling always spoke with a resolute tone, his heart was not truly cold. Take last night for example, when Liu Jiachuan was going to attack him, Xia Ling did not hesitate to help him!
If I just follow him like this, if I really encounter any danger … Heh heh, this young man should be embarrassed to stand idly by, right? Bai Lou could be considered to have hit the nail on the head.
It really was like that. If Bai Lou had been following him at such a close distance, Xia Ling thought to himself, she would have still acted on her own accord if something really happened.
He had obviously realized this as well.
However, Xia Ling was in a good mood today and was actually in a rare mood to play.
He slightly circulated the Sword One Tao Spirit Chapter technique in his body, increasing its speed. It only took him a short while to increase his speed by a level. The silhouette that was moving at a steady pace suddenly disappeared!
All that was left was a gently lifting cloud of dust.
Bai Lou, who had been following behind, was in a rather relaxed mood. They were chatting casually with each other. It had already helped him greatly in his cultivation. If he recovered his full strength, it would be perfect!
When the time comes, hmph. The young girl rolled her eyes at Xia Ling behind her back. When her cultivation level increases, she must properly compete with this arrogant guy.
However, at this moment, Xia Ling's figure suddenly disappeared. Bai Lou could feel the young man's aura rapidly moving forward, about to break away from her perception!
The young girl widened her eyes in shock. Hey, this guy, there's no need to be so heartless, right?
It was as if she was doing this on purpose to get rid of him!
This was simply too much!
Xia Ling's action had also triggered Bai Lou's anger. No matter what, everyone had the friendship of fighting together with each other. We were walking on the same road and I didn't disturb you.
Infuriating!
The girl's heart was also filled with anger. She immediately raised her cultivation technique and also chased after him at flying speed!
Her speed was also very fast, and her body was also very light and agile, as if she also had a relatively high level of internal energy. All of a sudden, Xia Ling wasn't able to pull away.
Oh? Xia Ling smiled lightly in his heart. As a middle stage Vein Refining cultivator, his speed is really fast. If it wasn't for the fact that he could clearly feel her strength, he probably would have thought that she was at the Congealing Void rank after all.
But a bit faster, wouldn't that work?
The speed of the Sword One Tao Spirit Chapter in Xia Ling's body increased by a little bit, and with the help of inner force, his body sped up once again. Although there wasn't much increase in speed this time, it was very demanding on one's strength.
Bai Lou couldn't hold on any longer.
