Chapter 1051 Ch 1051: "Minor" Trouble (1)
"I see. Thank you, Sir Ye, for saving me." Lan Xiang smiled sweetly at Ye Xiao and said.
At this time, Shu Xiang finally opened her eyes. She breathed in and out constantly, making breathing sounds. After that, she raised her head and nodded at Lan Xiang. Then she said: "Let's look around this cave. That centipede was the only Peak Immortal Emperor demonic beast in this spatial zone. Its cave must be special. There must be something here that we can use. Let's look around first!"
Lan Xiang nodded, then she seemed to think of something, she asked: "Senior sister, that centipede was a Peak Immortal Emperor demonic beast. How could you two kill it so easily?"
When Shu Xiang heard this, she frowned.
Previously, she didn't notice, but now that she thought about it, she really found it very strange.
She and Ye Xiao were only Immortal Kings, but the killing process after entering the cave was too smooth.
'Something is wrong!' Shu Xiang frowned and muttered.
She suddenly remembered that when they started fighting the centipede, after a short period of fierce battle, the movement of the giant centipede began to slow down a lot.
At that time, she thought it was because of injuries in the centipede's eyes and exhaustion. But now that she genuinely sink deeper in thought, she found many flaws in her previous judgment.
No matter how wounded the centipede was, it was still a Peak Immortal Emperor demonic beast. How could it be exhausted so easily. Ye Xiao even managed to blind that centipede's second eye as well.
But no matter how she thought, she could not find out what exactly happened before.
Unknown to everyone, Ye Xiao played a vital role in the fight against Giant Centipede. Although he was left with the Immortal King Realm cultivation base, his Soul Force was far stronger than the giant centipede.
In that fight, he constantly made use of his strong soul force to suppress the centipede, causing the centipede to unable to show its strongest side.
And that's how they were able to easily take care of the centipede.
As for why he didn't directly destroy the centipede's soul, killing it immediately, it is because he didn't want the two girls to know more about him in any way.
As Shu Xiang was thinking about it, she suddenly noticed something in a certain direction.
"Junior Sister, look there?"
Almost at the same time, Shu Xiang pointed towards a certain direction in the spatial zone and saw a stone spring dripping down. There was about a small green plant growing on the ground and growing under the nourishment of the stone spring.
Ye Xiao and Lan Xiang looked over and immediately discovered the plant.
Ye Xiao frowned. It is because, the moment he stepped into the cave, he had already scanned the entire cave with his Divine Sense. Other than the wall where he suspected Immortal Source to be hidden, he did not notice anything.
But now, the stone spring and the plant suddenly appeared in this space out of nowhere. He didn't notice the slightest fluctuation of energy or anything before.
How did the stone spring and the plant appear here?
At this moment, a foreign thought suddenly entered his mind. It was saying: "Do you really think getting Immortal Source is that easy? Face some minor difficulties first. Don't worry, it is just a minor difficulty. You can easily deal with it!"
"F*ck!"
Ye Xiao silently cursed in his heart. He knew to whom that foreign thought belong. It was the Realm of Dreams.
He just didn't know what kind of "minor" trouble he was going to face now.
Lan Xiang's eyes lit up and said in pleasant surprise, "It's the Dragonfly Fruit Tree!"
As she spoke, the three of them came to the front of the Dragonfly Fruit Tree and found that there were exactly three fruits on the tree.
The Dragonfly Fruit was a type of Immortal Fruit that could help Immortal Kings improve their cultivation. It had a very high value, and it is also extremely difficult to find. It was extremely precious.
It can be even said that what the two girls needed the most at this moment was exactly this Dragonfly Fruit. It is because this Immortal Fruit could help them break through to Immortal Emperor Realm with ease.
"There are three Dragonfly Fruits on the tree. We can take one for each of us."
Lan Xiang said with a smile. As she spoke, she wanted to bend down and pluck the Dragonfly Fruit.
"Whoosh!"
But at this moment, a cold light flashed over. After sensing the danger, Lan Xiang's expression changed and she hurriedly took back the jade hand. She saw a hidden weapon emitting a cold luster pierce the ground in the middle of the three Dragonfly Fruits.
The expression of Ye Xiao, Shu Xiang, and Lan Xiang turned cold at the same time. They saw that at the entrance of the cave, more than a dozen figures have appeared.
The few people in the lead were Mu Feng, Meng Yu, Zuo Lengtian, and Yao Xiner. The rest were all powerful martial artists from the Flame Heart Sect. They had actually gathered together.
"So this is minor trouble that the Realm of Dreams talked about!" Ye Xiao silently muttered in his heart and shook his head in helplessness. He really didn't want to deal with these people.
To him, it was all a meaningless and waste of time. He just wanted to clear the test and return.
However, the Realm of Dreams was toying with him for some reason.
"Those Dragonflu Fruits are ours. Miss Lan, miss Shu, I won't make things difficult for you. The two of you can leave. As for him, leave this person to me."
Mu Feng placed his hands behind his back and spoke slowly. His expression was filled with pride.
"The Dragonfly Fruits were discovered by the three of us. Look there, we spend too much effort to kill that Peak Immortal Emperor demonic beast. These Dragonfly Fruits are the reward of our labor, why would we give these fruits to someone else? Furthermore, the three of us are now allies. We will never leave anyone behind."
Lan Xiang's eyes turned cold as she spoke with righteous indignation. She spoke as if she really had spent too much effort in killing the Giant Centipede.
She knew that Mu Feng didn't come with good intentions, and that's why she spoke like that.
It was only now that Mu Feng and others discovered the corpse of the giant Centipede. They raised their brows in surprise, for they could not understand how the three of them took care of a Peak Immortal Emperor demonic beast!
However, when death is near, greed always took over people's ability to think rationally.
Dragonfly Fruits were too valuable for any person in the Immortal King Realm. Mu Feng and others could not find themselves giving up on these fruits.
"Even if you discovered the Dragonfly Fruits first and somehow killed the centipede, so what? It is not up to you now to decide anything!" Zuo Lengtian said with a cold smile. His tone was unusually tough.
After he was done saying that, a dozen people stepped towards Ye Xiao and the other two with ferocious smiles on their faces.
"What do you want? Do you really want to force us with numbers?"
A cold expression appeared on Shu Xiang's face. Her eyes swept across people of the Flame Heart Sect and said: "Didn't I warn you guys before? Why are you guys here again?"
Shu Xiang was a little angry. She knew that these people of the Flame Heart Sect relied on Mu Feng and Zuo Lengtian to appear in front of her again.
"That person is the one who heavily injured two disciples of my Flame Heart Sect. We must kill him no matter what. Since Young Master Mu and Young Master Zuo are here, I'm afraid Miss Shu, you won't be able to protect this man this time!"
The leader of the Flame Heart Sect sneered and spoke. With Mu Feng and the others present, if they didn't do something out of line with Shu Xiang and Lan Xiang, the Heaven Shrouding Gate wouldn't do anything to them.
"Did you see that? Shu Xiang, Lan Xiang, I advise you to adapt to the situation and leave immediately!" Mu Feng sneered, his words filled with threat.
"Dream on. With us around, you can forget about hurting him!" A trace of determination flashed across Lan Xiang's beautiful eyes as she spoke to Mu Feng coldly.
Hearing Shu Xiang's words, Mu Feng's expression instantly turned cold. He also came from a powerful force, equally powerful as the Heaven Shrouding Sect. He was not afraid of Shu Xiang and Lan Xiang.
"Why do you want to save him so much? Maybe he is your man and you have already done "that". That could explain why you are trying to save him!" Mu Feng spoke. His words were incomparably sharp.
"Mu Feng, you are shameless!"
Mu Feng's words made Shu Xiang angry. She couldn't help but recall what happened before with Ye Xiao.
