Three days later.
During these three days, Tang Xin did not allow Yi Rou and the others to enter the city directly. After all, it was someone else’s territory, and a large group of people appearing suddenly could easily raise suspicions.
She stayed with Shui Qiu and Xu Lexian, wandering around the city, waiting for the other party to send a message.
Patience pays off. The queen bee sent her another letter, marking a location that was very close to the Wild Mountain Range.
“It seems they plan to hide in the mountains at the first sign of trouble and head to another state,” the Saintess remarked. “What a bunch of cowardly mice.”
“I’ll leave the follow-up to you,” Tang Xin said, placing a modified jade token into her storage bag. “I suppose my life is in your hands!”
“Senior sister…”
Shui Qiu showed a worried expression, thought for a moment, and forced a smile.
“I’ll be waiting for senior sister’s triumphant return!”
Tang Xin smiled and patted her head.
Speaking of which, this girl has been patted on the head so much; her understanding should have improved quite a bit…
Leaving the city and traveling alone, Tang Xin found a place to transform into the white-haired witch “Snow” and arrived at the designated location.
Several black-clad cultivators had been waiting there for a long time, and the leader was the same Nascent Soul expert from last time.
“There are three in total,” the other party introduced. “As per your request, flat-chested, beautiful girls.”
Three prison carts were covered with white cloth, looking somewhat mysterious.
Tang Xin walked over calmly, lightly flicking her fingers to lift the white cloth off the first prison cart.
Inside a metal cage, with her eyes covered by white cloth and her hands and feet bound by iron chains, was a beautiful girl in her twenties.
She had green hair and a tall, slender figure, exuding a cool and aloof vibe, clearly not Su Ling.
“Not small enough.”
Tang Xin pretended to shake her head, commenting.
Lifting the cover off the second prison cart, the girl inside was petite, but her face was round and soft, looking adorable, yet still not comparable to Su Ling.
“Still not small enough.”
Seriously, are there so many flat-chested girls among the captives?
When she reached the third cart, Tang Xin sighed and lifted the cover again.
Flat, very flat!
“Let her out so I can take a look.”
Tang Xin said lightly.
Perhaps because there were many strong cultivators present, the other party was not worried about anyone escaping and complied with her request, releasing the girl from the prison cart and unbinding her feet.
She raised her hand, intending to remove the white cloth covering the girl’s eyes.
“No,” the Nascent Soul cultivator organized said. “It’s a rule to keep the eyes covered outside. I can assure you, there’s nothing wrong under the white cloth.”
“Um,” Tang Xin calmly retracted her hand. “These people should all be intact, right?”
“Of course, we have rules about not harming goods. How can we cooperate without rules?”
“Can you make her speak?” Tang Xin asked again.
The Nascent Soul cultivator nodded, raised his hand, and released the restraints on the flat-chested girl.
“You bunch of bad guys, when my master finds you, it will be your end! Unless you release me and those you’ve kidnapped right now, otherwise… mmm mmm mmm…”
Tang Xin covered the girl’s mouth, pretending to observe her closely, but inwardly she breathed a sigh of relief.
No doubt about it, it was indeed Su Ling, and this guy had silently cultivated to the sixth rank of Foundation Building, even faster than Shui Qiu!
After her observation, she let go of her hand.
“Who are you? So rude! Hmph, let me tell you, there must be a group of cultivators outside looking for me. Your location might have already been discovered, and what awaits you will definitely be… mmm mmm mmm…”
Tang Xin sealed her meridians again with her true energy, silencing the girl.
“This one is not bad,” she said lightly, “but it might just be a coincidence, which doesn’t fully prove your capabilities.”
“What do you mean?” the Nascent Soul cultivator frowned.
“Let’s check your base,” Tang Xin said without changing her expression. “Both quantity and quality are what we need in a partner.”
As soon as she said this, the atmosphere turned cold, and several cultivators placed their hands on their weapons, ready to strike at any moment.
[Options generating…]
[Option One: Carry Su Ling and run quickly.]
[Success probability: 1%, reward: one Undying Nirvana Pill, failure means death.]
[Option Two: Strike first and attempt to kill the Nascent Soul cultivator.]
[Success probability: 2%, reward: one Holy Healing Pill, failure means death.]
[Option Three: Find a way to prove you come from a “super strong mysterious force.”]
[Success probability: 50%, reward: one Demon Blood Pill.]
[Option Four: “Haha, I was just joking,” try to bluff your way out.]
[Success probability: 50%, reward: one Advanced Healing Pill.]
Bluffing would conflict with her goals, and if she did that, the carefully built persona would collapse.
So she could only try to intimidate them.
How to prove she had a background?
The most direct way was to appear wealthy.
[Holy Magic Stone, 150,000 persecution points; Space Shuttle, 180,000 persecution points; Immortal Spirit Cauldron, 300,000 persecution points…]
Damn, that’s expensive!
Is there anything that looks impressive, is cheap, sounds amazing, but is actually useless?
【The system mall intelligently recommends: Transcending Tribulation Cultivator’s Diary, 500 persecution points.】
【Transcending Tribulation Cultivator’s Diary: A diary infused with the aura of a Transcending Tribulation cultivator, documenting the daily life of a certain Transcending Tribulation cultivator, with no content related to cultivation.】
Wait a minute, do Transcending Tribulation cultivators even write diaries?
“Hmph,” Tang Xin took out the diary from her storage bag, sneering, “Look at how nervous you all are… Fine, I’ll give this to you as a ticket for the tour!”
Swish!
The Nascent Soul cultivator accurately caught the thrown blue-covered “manual.”
As he opened the first page, a soul-shaking aura rushed at him, making him feel as if he were falling into an abyss.
This, this is…
That aura made his Nascent Soul tremble, as if he had been transported to the clouds, about to be cast out of this world.
Even when facing the top experts in the organization, he had never felt such terror.
Unifying Dao… no, it’s Transcending Tribulation!
The aura of a Transcending Tribulation stage!
By the time he regained his senses, he realized he was drenched in cold sweat.
Using all his strength to suppress his fear, he slowly began to browse through the contents of the “manual.”
“She must like me; she’s definitely with others because she’s afraid of holding me back. Staying in the secret room with others is to prevent me from getting hurt if I see them. I understand her intentions; she’s doing it all for my sake…”
Profound!
I can’t understand!
After glancing a few times, the Nascent Soul cultivator closed the “manual.”
Although he couldn’t comprehend the contents recorded within, he could confirm that this was definitely something from a Transcending Tribulation stage expert!
To casually give away such a treasure, just how immense is Red Snow Asura’s background?
What kind of colossal power is behind an organization that even they, as an underground group, cannot trace?
If he could connect with such a force, collecting talents would be a trivial task!
“If it’s for our cooperation, this matter can be considered…”
