“I hope that the next time you meet the Maitreya Arhat ghost, someone will come to your rescue.” Xia qingchen spoke indifferently.
Then, he took a step forward and left at an astonishing speed.
Taking advantage of the fact that the fog around them had yet to dissipate, Hua ziqing had no way of tracking them down.
“Detestable!” Hua ziqing said resentfully.
Half a day later.
At the border of the Western Desert.
In a desolate town.
This was the last city before they entered the Western Desert.
Many people would replenish their resources in the city before entering the West barren.
Xia qingchen arrived at a large courtyard in the southern part of the city.
He knocked on the door and stuffed his Holy Land identity token in.
The door of the residence immediately opened, revealing a young woman in her mid -20s. She was currently sizing up Xia qingchen with a surprised gaze.
“I have medicine from the sect that needs to be handed over to the local person in charge.”
The young woman was in awe of Xia qingchen’s identity as a disciple of a Holy Land. She didn’t dare to hesitate and immediately came to the deepest part of the residence.
This place was the secret stronghold of Nebula sect at the border of the Western wilderness.
The person in charge was here.
“Please wait a moment, Junior Brother Xia. I’ll go and report to Senior Sister Liao,” the woman said in front of a certain building.
The woman entered and went to the second floor.
An ordinary-looking woman in her thirties was putting on makeup in front of a bronze mirror.
“Senior Sister Liao, a Holy Land disciple has come to pay his respects.”
Senior Sister Liao was the local person-in-charge, and her cultivation had reached the fourth level of the minor astral level.
Her face was expressionless as she slowly applied powder on her face to cover up the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes.”What’s the matter?”
“He said he brought medicine from the sect.”
Oh, ” Senior Sister Liao replied softly. it’s for those injured disciples, right? the sect is really thoughtful.
There was no anxiety in her tone at all.
“Alright, let him put it down.”
“Senior Sister, this is a disciple of the Holy Land. Why didn’t you leave him behind to help us fight against the dark Moon?” the young woman asked in surprise.
Then, Senior Sister Liao picked up the Rouge and slowly applied it.
“Those people from the sacred land are like flowers in a greenhouse. Keeping them alive will only ruin things,” he said after a while.
“This … It can’t be. To be able to enter the sacred land, he must have something extraordinary.”
Senior Sister Liao chuckled, her eyes full of contempt. it’s not that I’m looking down on them, but those so-called geniuses are only arrogant in the Holy Land. They might wet their pants in fear when faced with the ghost Arhats of the Dark Moon.
“Alright, tell him to leave the medicine.”
The young woman had no choice but to retreat.
“Junior Brother Xia, Senior Sister Liao is busy with her cultivation. You can just leave the secret medicine behind.”
Xia qingchen glanced at the pavilion and frowned slightly.
He didn’t feel that he had been neglected.
Instead, she was unwilling to even go downstairs for such an important matter as accepting the secret medicine.
In her heart, did she even care about the injured disciples?
However, Xia qingchen was only in charge of delivering the secret medicine. He couldn’t care so much.
He handed the secret medicine to the woman and asked after some thought, “”May I know where Bai Jing is?”
Since he had come to the Western wilderness, he might as well pay her a visit.
The young woman assessed Xia qingchen with a strange gaze. “Who is Bai Jing to junior Nia?”
“An old friend.” He said indifferently.
“She lives in the No. 3 alley in the West of the city. I don’t know if she’s on a mission,” the young woman said hesitantly.
“Alright, thank you.” Xia qingchen immediately turned and left.
“He’s hiding his true strength. Bai Jing actually knows people from the sacred land?” the young woman mumbled.
“What good luck!”
She returned to the attic and gave the secret medicine to Senior Sister Liao.
Senior Sister Liao didn’t even look at it and said indifferently, “”Put it on the ground.”
She was focused on her makeup.
At this moment, a knocking sound came from the attic.
Another young woman came to report, her face full of joy, ‘”‘Senior Sister Liao, senior brother Hua is back.”
What?
Senior Sister Liao put down her Rouge and said in surprise, “”Hua ziqing is back? That’s great! Immediately summon all the members in the city and start the summary meeting.”
“Yes!”
At that time.
Xia qingchen came to an alley in the Western part of the city.
He knocked on the door in front of a small, cold courtyard.
After a long while, there was no response.
“He’s not here?” Xia qingchen pondered for a moment. He then tiptoed and prepared to climb over the wall.
He had no time to waste.
If Bai Jing isn’t home, I’ll leave her a small gift on the table.
However, just as he jumped up, a white shadow flashed in front of him.
A white silk suddenly attacked.
Fortunately, Xia qingchen’s eyes and hands were fast, and he managed to grab hold of Bai Ling.
Then, he rolled it up with force.
On the other side of the White silk, a beautiful figure was pulled by a huge force and fell forward without warning.
It was only now that Xia qingchen discovered that the person who had acted was actually Bai Jing.
He dodged to the side and wrapped his arms around Bai Jing’s waist.
“Let go!” Bai Jing’s expression was cold. Her elbow ruthlessly stabbed Xia qingchen’s abdomen.
Xia qingchen had no choice but to grab her hand and pull her into his embrace, preventing her from attacking again.
“It’s me,” he said. Xia qingchen spoke in a timely manner.
The latter was embarrassed and angry, but when he heard the voice, he turned his head to look at the face in front of him and was shocked. Xia qingchen? ‘
Xia qingchen released her and stood before her, smiling softly. “Senior sister’s welcome ceremony is really special.”
Bai Jing immediately dropped the White silk in her hands. She was both surprised and delighted.
He was shocked because a year later, Xia qingchen actually came to the Western wilderness to visit him.
He was happy because of the long-lost warmth of meeting an old friend.
“It’s really you! I’m not dreaming, am I?” Bai Jing’s heart ached, and she couldn’t help but cry.
She hurriedly wiped it away with her hand and tried her best to smile.
Xia qingchen was stunned.
The Bai Jing in his memory was cold and strong.
When had it ever been so fragile?
Xia qingchen then cast another glance at Bai Yan who was on the ground. He frowned and said, “”Senior Sister, have you suffered?”
Bai Jing shook her head and smiled with tears in her eyes.”Why would I?
Quickly sit down, I’ll pour you some tea.”
She hurriedly entered the small courtyard and made tea for Xia qingchen.
There was a mortal girl in the room.
“Yu Jer, quickly go and buy some wine and meat,” she instructed in a low voice.
The young girl looked troubled and lowered her voice, “”Sister Bai Jing, there are only ten taels of silver left. This is your monthly allowance.” Ten taels of silver was only enough to buy a meal of wine and meat.
“Don’t worry about it, just go!” Bai Jing said.
Only then did Yu ‘er rush out of the door with a gloomy face.
Their voices were very soft.
However, Xia qingchen, who was sitting in the courtyard, had a cultivation base at the second level of the minor astral plane. He could hear everything clearly.
As a senior intermediate disciple, he even had trouble eating and wearing?
What happened to Bai Jing?
Why was he in such dire straits?
“Junior Brother, why did you suddenly come to the West barren?” Bai Jing passed the tea to Xia qingchen without any change in expression.
“I’m here to see you,” Xia qingchen spoke.
A warm smile appeared on Bai Jing’s face. She pointed at her nose. Senior Sister, I’m fine here. My senior brothers and sisters are taking care of me. I don’t have to worry about food or clothes. I can even cultivate in peace.
Looking at her face that was pretending to be calm, Xia qingchen felt an inexplicable sourness in his heart.
“Senior Sister, if there’s anything you need my help with, just let me know. I can still help you with some small things.” Xia qingchen went straight to the point.
Bai Jing avoided his gaze and forced a smile. you’re a petite person with a big mouth. You actually want to help me? ‘
“I appreciate your kind intentions, but I’m doing well. I really don’t need any help. ”
Shua shua–
At this moment.
There was a violent knock on the door.
“Bai Jing, today is the last day. If you don’t return the money, I’ll tear down your house!”
Bai Jing’s body stiffened. Her face was half-red and half-white.
Bai was nervous.
It was red because she was embarrassed.
She bit her red lips and said, ” Junior Brother, it’s just a small misunderstanding. It’s not a big deal. Don’t take it to heart.
Wuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwu
As if hearing her voice, the people outside immediately kicked the door open.
The three young men, whose cultivation bases had reached the minor star level, sneered fiercely, ‘”ISO you’re home. I thought you were hiding again!” They went to Bai Jing.
One of them lifted his leg and stepped on the stone table, kicking over the teacup in front of Xia qingchen.
The tea splashed all over his face..
