Chapter 118 Don't be afraid, I'm your brother-in-law! (6k)
"Mortal?" Elder Wuzhu frowned slightly, his eyes full of confusion.
If he couldn't see through Luo's cultivation, at least she had some spiritual power. But the man in front of him, with eyebrows as thick as caterpillars, showed no signs of spiritual power fluctuations all over his body.
"This place belongs to the Taiqing Sect. If you are not one of us, do not linger here. Leave immediately, or don't blame me for being ruthless and killing you without mercy!"
Elder Wuzhu's voice was cold, and his words carried a terrifying pressure, sweeping towards the man like raging waves.
The man, immersed in his own emotions, was taken aback by the sudden pressure, trembling all over. He immediately stopped laughing manically, turned around, and ran away, crawling and stumbling.
This scene stunned Elder Wuzhu, who instinctively looked towards the barrier behind him.
Isn't it just one person bothering you all the way? I even need to stop them for you?
......
"I wonder what Sanhu and Xiao Qing are doing now? They can play together, but they love causing trouble."
"I haven't seen them for four years. I wonder if they miss me?"
"Luckily, I brought them gifts. I carefully selected them, but it's a pity I couldn't get that Soul Breath Immortal Grass."
Luo Lingling muttered to herself, quickening her pace unconsciously.
No one noticed that the space not far behind Luo Lingling had ripples appearing.
Next, the man with caterpillar-like thick eyebrows jumped out from it, looking pleasantly surprised.
"It really came over. This thing is definitely a universal key!"
The man's eyes shone as he stared at the white pearl in his hand, full of joy and relief. Then he quickly and cautiously put it away.
He looked around nervously and quickly saw Luo Lingling ahead, walking briskly and, finally, even hopping like a child and humming an unknown song.
This scene instantly made the man's face show a deep infatuation. His gaze followed her tightly, muttering to himself, "She has such a little girl side too..."
......
At the foot of Little Spirit Peak, Niu Guangmo frowned, tightly holding a plan book, eyes full of worry.
It's not that he didn't trust the boss, but this money-making plan seemed a bit too risky.
Over the past three months, he had pooled all his brothers' money for investment, but in the end, it was all lost.
No one had said anything. Making money involved gains and losses, which was normal, and they had experienced countless such incidents before.
But the final result was always a little better, and otherwise, the eight of them wouldn't have reached the Golden Core Realm.
But this time, he didn't see much promise in the "Customized Cave Mansion Renovation" project. Why live in a cave instead of a courtyard? Who would be willing to spend a lot of money to convert a cave into a cave mansion?
Forget it, it's better to find ways to raise money. His monthly target was five hundred mid-grade spirit stones, but now, with most of the time already gone, he hadn't even raised half of it. He wondered which old friend he hadn't contacted in a long time to look for.
Niu Guangmo sighed deeply, his voice full of helplessness and melancholy. Standing at the foot of the mountain, he gazed ahead blankly.
Soon, he saw a beggar approaching.
"Yo, isn't this Old Niu? Why do you look so worried?" Luo Lingling cheerfully greeted when she saw a familiar face.
Niu Guangmo froze, then rubbed his eyes hard. He immediately reacted, his body trembling uncontrollably.
"Senior Sister—"
When he finally recognized the person in the beggar's attire, Niu Guangmo's face immediately showed joy, but soon turned pale, with a hint of panic flashing in his eyes.
Luo Lingling noticed Niu Guangmo's facial changes, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared.
She was cautious in her actions, and reading people's expressions was almost instinctive for her.
Even a casual glance or a tiny movement could help her swiftly judge whether it contained good or evil intent and decide whether to attack or escape.
Niu Guangmo's swift change of expression was identical to Elder Wuzhu's at the mountain gate earlier.
Already suspicious but didn't ask much before, Niu Guangmo's behavior now further confirmed her guess.
"What's going on?"
Before Niu Guangmo could react, a short sword emitting sharp Sword Qi appeared in Luo Lingling's hand and swiftly pressed against his throat.
The Sword Qi from the short sword scattered, making the surrounding air seem to freeze.
Luo Lingling's gaze was cold as frost, staring keenly at Niu Guangmo, questioning in a voice devoid of emotion.
Niu Guangmo felt a chill rise from his feet to his heart. He nervously swallowed, his face turning paler, and sweat began to pour down his forehead.
His lips trembled violently, but he couldn't speak a word for a long time.
Everyone knew that although it appeared that the Peak Master was in charge of Little Spirit Peak, the real decision-maker was this young lady in front of him.
If Peak Master Mo said to eat at the Jade Dining Hall today, and if she disagrees, everyone would go hungry without daring to utter a word.
Don't be deceived by the fact that it's a short sword. It can instantly become very long, long enough to pierce through his neck and then penetrate a tree three meters away.
