Chapter 1049 Zhiwei’s Thoughts

The two of them exchanged a glance, both seeing disbelief on each other’s pale faces.

Not long ago, they still encountered this master and servant duo within the Celestial Street Nine Districts.

At that time, the sword-carrying male cultivator had scoffed, calling the little young master in red clothes nothing but a noble family’s wastrel.

Unexpectedly, their combat strength was terrifying, far surpassing his own!

"Senior Brother, can you discern their cultivation level? They seem young, could they have already reached the late-stage Foundation Establishment? How could there be such prodigies in the world... that’s impossible..."

The delicate female cultivator secretly transmitted her voice.

Though it was impolite to discuss privately in front of their benefactor,

the shock was so great that she even forgot the agony of her severed arm.

How old are these two?

Why can they subdue a late-stage Foundation Establishment demon ape?

And still tame a late-stage Foundation Establishment demon vine!

The sword-carrying male cultivator swallowed a mouthful of bloody froth with difficulty, transmitting back:

"Junior Sister, even I can’t see through them. Regardless of their cultivation, their magical battle skills are comparable to the late-stage Foundation Establishment. A wastrel from a noble family? Heh, I was truly blind."

They, being True Inheritors of Medicine King Valley, usually had high spirits and pride.

But now, they had no choice but to submit.

Perhaps, the legendary Hidden Dragon was no more than this?

On the other side.

"No problem, no problem, slaying demons and banishing evils is naturally this young master’s duty!"

Qing Jun somewhat sheepishly tucked the bulging Storage Bag away, quickly blinking at Jin’er.

Help, Jin’er!

She was the most candid girl in the Cultivation Realm, incapable of deceit.

Talking like this... might accidentally reveal to Su Qingdai her identity, then Master would be exposed!

For a moment.

The scene fell into a peculiar silence.

Su Qingdai watched the girl incessantly blinking, perplexed yet unable to inquire further.

Jin’er sighed quietly.

This little senior sister of hers... not only hasn’t grown taller, her intellect hasn’t grown much either.

"Please don’t mind, fellow cultivators. Our young master has been cultivating under the protection of his family’s elders since young, his nature is lively and impulsive, and he most admires the chivalrous spirit in storybooks. Coming out this time, he’s defying his family to indulge whimsically. Now, after slaying the Red Ape Sect’s villain, he’s slightly embarrassed and unsure of what to do."

Jin’er approached with a humble demeanor, subtly positioning herself in front of Qing Jun.

Qing Jun hurriedly followed with repeated nods:

"Yes, yes!"

"I see, the young master truly has a pure heart. Qing Dai is enlightened."

Su Qingdai looked at the adorable little young master before her, the corners of her mouth under the veil subtly curling.

Although she felt some of the young master’s gestures seemed strangely familiar, despite not seeing her for years, she couldn’t possibly think that this terrifying little creature was the white-haired girl from the Luoxiao Grotto Heaven years ago!

Su Qingdai mused:

"Compared to Qing Jun, this person might not be... Back then, in Luoxiao Grotto Heaven, she was not yet a match for He Qinyuan, and even though her cultivation has grown over the years, it would still be difficult to deal with these two demon apes."

"But then again, which sect does this person belong to? I’ve never heard of such a prodigy in Yan Kingdom’s Five Sects..."

Perhaps,

not a cultivator from Yan?

From the two nations of Ling and Xu?

Or an overseas loose cultivator? Or perhaps an outsider cultivator?

Seeing Su Qingdai’s admiring expression,

the little girl smugly hummed to herself:

"Hmph, naughty junior sister and bad teacher were laughing at me this morning! Now look, even the True Inheritor Senior Sister from Medicine King Valley is so enchanted by this young master that she’s lost her bearings!"

Thinking of this, the little girl’s mouth couldn’t help but curl upward.

She was already impatient to show her master, letting him know how splendid Xu Qingjun is!

"Fellow cultivators, this place is too heavily soaked with blood, it’s not suitable to linger."

Jin’er swept her bright eyes over the surrounding ruins, speaking clearly,

"Since the Red Ape Sect dared to ambush True Inheritors of Medicine King Valley right under the nose of the Ten Thousand Medicines Celestial City, it signifies the situation within the city is far more perilous than external rumors suggest, perhaps still concealing hidden culprits. Soon enough, the events here will be discovered by outsiders, and whether friend or foe arrives, remains uncertain."

"Your words are very true."

Su Qingdai nodded slightly, her expression grave.

In truth, just a moment ago, the masters from Medicine King Valley had already arrived at Ant Market and safeguarded her not far away.

Among their group, there were three True Inheritors from Medicine King Valley, all seed cultivators of Medicine King Valley, naturally protected by masters.

However, this time due to various reasons, they were temporarily separated from their masters, unexpectedly allowing themselves to be ambushed by the One-Eyed Dragon.

Yet,

she glanced thoughtfully at the mysterious duo in front of her.

The desire to guard oneself should not be absent.

This master and servant duo’s battle strength was unreasonably strong, but their origins were shrouded in mystery. Considering the unpredictable nature of the current situation, Su Qingdai would not reveal all her cards.

Keeping some secrets is always wise.

Su Qingdai turned slightly, looking worryingly at the severely injured fellow disciple beside her, sighed, and said:

"With the herb gathering ceremony approaching, the Yannan Hundred Families are a mixed bag, with undercurrents surging. The Red Ape Sect’s blatant actions today suggest there’s an unknown upheaval within the Ten Thousand Medicines Celestial City. Esteemed benefactors, if you don’t mind, why not accompany us back to the Medicine King Inn in the Celestial Street Nine Districts? There our sect elders have left restrictions, making it the safest place."

The Medicine King Inn in Celestial Street Nine Districts?

"Oh yes, oh yes! Celestial Street Nine Districts has many fun places!"

The little girl loved lively places the most, and hearing that she could unwittingly return to Celestial Street Nine Districts, she nodded enthusiastically.

Moreover,

the Medicine King Inn might also have many Spirit Plants!
