Chapter 239: Nurturing the Cracks
Chapter 239: Nurturing the Cracks
"Who is it! Come out quickly."
A familiar scent was hiding in the dark. After a brief moment of worry, Qin Baiqing fixed his eyes on one place and smelled a familiar scent there.
The stupid smell of white fox.
"Li Yuqi, is that you?" She shouted into the darkness, but forgot that she was now in a disguised state and was not the leader that Li Yuqi had seen.
Now she rashly called out the other person's name, which instead caused Lan Heyu to scream.
"Who are you and why do you know me?" A figure without concealing his true face appeared. It was indeed Li Yuqi. At this time, one hand turned into a claw and pinched Lan Heyu's neck, looking at the two of them warily.
The corners of the eyes that were originally bright and dull had lost their emotion, revealing the ferocity of the demon.
He approached and urged Qin Baiqing, "No matter who you are, lead the way, or I will kill him!"
It seems that the garrison uniforms of the three people attracted the attention of the big fox. Qin Baiqing thought silently.
"Stupid fox, your eyesight isn't very good."
She raised her hand and wiped it, and the moment her true face was revealed, she said disdainfully: "You still say we have seen each other before, but your eyes are so bad, you must have made a mistake."
"Alliance leader! Why are you here?"
The evil spirit retreated, and Li Yuqi instantly became harmless. He stared at Qin Baiqing blankly, feeling ashamed and surprised, at a loss as to what to do. He was about to blush again, and there was no trace of the fierce and cold monster anymore.
"Ahem." Feng Budu pushed Qin Baiqing and turned to leave, urging Li Yuqi impatiently, "Follow us, we also want to go deep into the depths."
He was moved and followed Qin Baiqing, ignoring Feng Budu.
With Li Yuqi's joining, the road ahead will be smoother.
Although he had a high level of cultivation, he was ruthless in his attacks. Except for appearing slow and almost soft in front of Qin Baiqing from time to time, once he encountered pursuers or guards, he would attack with one claw to seal their throats, and resolve the crisis in a flash of blood.
Feng Budu watched him work silently. Seeing that Li Yuqi only cared about killing and not burying the bodies, he sneered contemptuously and went forward to cover the bodies. For a moment, they cooperated tacitly. Qin Baiqing and Lan Heyu took a step back tacitly.
Clap and cheer from time to time.
"I haven't asked yet, what are you doing here?" Qin Baiqing poked her head out and asked Li Yuqi.
Could it be that the other party also knew about the pollution problem and came to solve it? That's really a good fox!
"I'm here to look for someone, but I don't know who it is," he took out a palm-sized lamp, his eyes clear, "This is a token, it will glow when it meets the person I'm looking for... Why is it glowing?"
"It's really bright!" Lan Heyu blocked the sunlight with his hands, and after seeing the faint light, he excitedly said to Qin Baiqing: "Look, elder, it's really bright."
"childish."
Unknowingly, they were approaching the center of the mountain. The polluted aura was getting closer and closer. No matter who the other party was looking for, the possibility of meeting him here was greater.
But what made Qin Baiqing silent now was another sensation deep in his sea of consciousness.
When she tried to ask for help not long ago, she couldn't find any response from her father. But here, without making any response, she could clearly feel the traces of her father's presence nearby.
It was faint, appearing and disappearing, flickering like a firefly in the depths of Qin Baiqing's sea of consciousness, just like... just like the lamp in Li Yuqi's hand!
As the breath of Qin Feiyu sensed in the sea of consciousness continued to flicker, the flickering of the lamp also corresponded to the frequency in Qin Baiqing's mind. Qin Baiqing's expression became strange. He stared at the lamp for a long time, and suddenly widened his eyes in disbelief.
The person that this lamp, which serves as a token of trust, represents is none other than Daddy!
"Who exactly are you looking for, and why are you looking for him?" She asked seriously, so seriously that Li Yuqi felt unfamiliar. Since it was about Qin Feiyu, she subconsciously asked fiercely, "What is your relationship?"
Daddy and the foxes are clearly not familiar with each other! What on earth is the white fox going to do?
After asking three questions in a row, Li Yuqi became more and more confused. He was just confused as to why Qin Baiqing was so mean to him and, unusually, could not answer any of her questions.
"I don't know," he looked down at the lamp, not even caring about the flash, and explained to Qin Baiqing in confusion: "I just... need to find someone." The two were confronting each other silently, Qin Baiqing squinted his eyes and approached step by step, which made the tall, cold and rebellious demon look weak and confused.
From the corner, a weak voice interrupted the two of them.
"Elder...I seem to be in danger."
"Ah!! We've been discovered!"
As Lan and Yu screamed in fear, a large number of defenders suddenly attacked them. The three people who revealed their true faces stood together with Li Yuqi, who was obviously an outsider. The defenders instantly understood what was happening.
"They have sneaked in! Go and call the elders." The leader shouted, and at the same time gave an order, he surrounded the few people with full force. The guards in the core area were all strong men in the second realm without exception.
The strong are like clouds, while the weak and helpless are like Lan Heyu, hiding around Qin Baiqing and blaming themselves very much, "If I hadn't accidentally walked out just now, we wouldn't have been discovered."
"It's not your fault, but you need to be put in solitary confinement." Qin Baiqing raised her hand and said this, and Lan Heyu's figure flashed and disappeared in front of the few people. They had been taken into Qin Baiqing's small world and protected.
She sighed maturely, "Children should stay out of the fight between elders."
"Where did he go?" Li Yuqi's eyes lit up, staring at Qin Baiqing, hesitant to speak, "I..."
Qin Baiqing interrupted ruthlessly: "You can't go."
If those who need to work hide in the little world, won’t they have to do double the work!
"Do it!"
"Chase me!"
Qin Baiqing pretended to shout, then turned around and ran in the eyes of the defenders who were on high alert, and headed straight for the direction where the pollution was the most concentrated with Feng Budu.
From afar, I saw a long, dark crack. A pitiful bird or beast was hanging upside down in the air, and below was the smell of pollution that was eager to try greedily.
"It's Chiwu! It's about to be thrown into the rift."
"Tweet-"
The red crow cried miserably and flapped its wings, trying to struggle towards Qin Baiqing. The pollution seemed to sense something was wrong and increased its speed of climbing, trying to swallow the red crow immediately.
Just as Bird Feather was about to be licked by the contaminated tongue, a flower shadow flashed in the air, and Chiwu disappeared on the spot. When it reappeared, it and Qin Baiqing landed steadily on the edge of the crack.
The pollution, which had not eaten anything, was left shrinking back into the crack.
The three of them landed on the edge of the crack. Feng Budu defended against attacks from all directions. He intuitively felt that the pursuers were much more cautious in their attacks, and it was obvious that they were afraid of the crack behind them.
Especially when the three of them stood still, with the crack behind them, everyone's attacks stopped at once, and they hesitated to move forward.
"Humph, you're looking for death!"
The leader of the pursuers also landed on the ground and sneered suddenly. As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly exploded as if he had a tantrum because he had not been able to eat the pollution of the Red Crow, and rolled towards the few people.
The pollution covered the heads of several people at lightning speed, and grabbed Li Yuqi nearby, preparing to pick him up and drag him into the depths of the crack.
At this moment, profound spiritual light flashed all around, suppressing the pollution, and the originally restless cracks timidly calmed down.
The token on Li Yuqi's waist flashed with light and found its owner.
Qin Baiqing subconsciously took a step forward, stretched out her hand and shouted, "Daddy?" It was Qin Feiyu who suddenly appeared and suppressed the restlessness of the crack!
