What you said makes quite a bit of sense.
Bai Yu put away the unhappiness in his eyes and instead nodded in deep agreement.
“But if I take you with me, you have to give me ten merit coins. Don’t get me wrong. It’s not that I’m stingy. This is the precept of the Qingxuan Sect. When a spiritual bird carries a person, it must collect merit coins. Otherwise, it will be punished by the oath.”
It then looked at Xu Taiping again and said.
“No problem. I have merit coins!”
Xu Taiping smiled and raised the bag of merit coins in his hand.
This was exactly the bag of merit coins that Liu Zijin had just given him.
“Then get ready quickly. I’ll take you with me. We’ll hunt a few more back then.”
Seeing that Xu Taiping was so straightforward, the white feather no longer spoke as arrogantly as before, and its tone became much closer.
“Okay!”
Xu Taiping nodded vigorously.
“By the way, where do you plan to hunt the yellow sheep?”
Just as Xu Taiping was about to return to the house to prepare, the white feather suddenly asked another question.
“Qingfeng Gorge!”
Xu Taiping turned around and replied.
“Qingfeng Gorge? It’s at least a hundred miles west from here. Why go to such a far place?”
The white feather tilted its head, and its big eyes were full of confusion.
“Because the yellow sheep in Qingfeng Gorge are the most delicious!”
Xu Taiping replied with a smile.
As soon as it heard this, the confusion in the white feather’s eyes immediately dissipated, and it turned into excitement and said:
“Then let’s go to Qingfeng Gorge!”
……
Qingfeng Gorge, Baima Slope.
“Lu Chen, Zijin, why did you two take so long?”
A young man wearing the disciple’s robe of Qingxuan Sect looked coldly at Lu Chen and Zijin who had just dismounted their horses.
This young man had a long face, narrow and long eyes, a tall and thin figure, and a cold air between his eyebrows and eyes.
“Sorry, senior brother, we…”
“Senior brother, junior sister Zijin’s horse is a bit uncomfortable, so we are a little late.”
Lu Chen lied to the young man.
The young man he called senior brother was Mo Jun, the senior disciple of the fifth peak of Qingxuan Sect and of the same generation as Lu Chen. His cultivation was among the best among the disciples of the same generation.
“Is that really the case?”
Mo Jun looked at Liu Zijin with cold eyes.
“Yes, senior brother.”
Although Liu Zijin felt that there was no need to lie about the matter of looking for her sister, since Lu Chen had said so, she couldn’t expose it either.
“Junior brother Mo Jun, since the two junior brothers have arrived, let’s set off.”
Just then, a woman riding a spiritual horse not far away shouted at Mo Jun and the others.
Beside the woman, there was also a white-clothed girl riding a white spiritual horse.
Although both of their faces were covered with veils, even so, it was still difficult to hide the two’s peerless looks.
“Senior brother, who are these two?”
That Lu Chen was almost dumbfounded.
“That’s Senior Sister Ziyan from the Sixth Peak and the junior sister who has just entered the sect not long ago, Buyu. When I came here, I happened to meet her bringing her junior sister to practice in Qingfeng Gorge. That demonic tiger is easy to kill, but it’s not so simple to capture it alive and use it as a mount, so I invited her to go with me.”
While flipping onto the horse, Mo Jun introduced them to Lu Chen with a cold face.
“With the help of Senior Sister Ziyan, this time you, Senior Brother, will surely be able to capture that demonic tiger as a mount.”
Lu Chen flattered with a smile on his face.
Mo Jun coldly glanced at Lu Chen, and then looked at Liu Zijin and said:
“Zijin, when we arrive at Qingfeng Gorge later, you and Junior Sister Buyu from the Sixth Peak just watch from the side. Don’t interfere in the matter of hunting the tiger demon.”
“Can Senior Brother…”
“Junior Sister, just listen to Senior Brother. Everything will be discussed after capturing the tiger demon.”
Liu Zijin couldn’t help but want to ask Senior Brother to help ask the tiger demon if it had seen her sister, but the words had just come out when she was interrupted by Lu Chen beside her.
“Hmm.”
Liu Zijin finally nodded.
“Then let’s go, go to Qingfeng Gorge together.”
Mo Jun threw down a sentence, clamped the horse’s back with his legs, and then flew out like the wind.
The horses under the group of people were all spiritual horses, running in the mountains as fast as the wind. In just a moment, they arrived at the Qingfeng Gorge that never saw the sun all year round.
……
Qingfeng Gorge, Red Maple Forest.
“The lair of the tiger demon is deep in this maple forest. Ziyan and I will first hide our figures. After you receive my voice transmission, Lu Chen, you will go and lure the tiger demon to the position where Ziyan and I are ambushing.”
In a red maple forest, Mo Jun said seriously to Lu Chen.
“Then what about me, senior brother?”
Liu Zijin asked Mo Jun eagerly.
She really wanted to go and take a look at the lair of the tiger demon to see if her sister had been caught into the cave by the tiger demon.
“Zijin, you and Buyu stay here and don’t go anywhere. When the three of us lead out the tiger demon, you two can come forward to assist as appropriate.”
Mo Jun looked at Liu Zijin seriously.
“Sister Zijin, please take care of our Buyu. She has only been in the sect for half a year, and this is her first formal contact with monsters.”
Just as Liu Zijin was about to strive for it, that Senior Sister Ziyan suddenly brought Buyu to her and asked her earnestly.
“Buyu has met Senior Sister Zijin.”
The little girl Buyu saluted Liu Zijin indifferently.
“Well, don’t worry, Senior Sister Ziyan. I will definitely take good care of Miss Buyu.”
Liu Zijin finally gave up the idea of going to lure the tiger demon with Lu Chen, and took the hand of Buyu, standing side by side with her.
“Hoo! …”
Just then, a gust of mountain wind blew, and Buyu’s face towel was lifted by the wind, revealing her almost flawless face.
Not only Lu Chen, but also Liu Zijin on the side was stunned for a moment.
This Buyu seemed to have long been used to the surrounding gazes, and just silently raised her head, looking through the gaps in the branches and leaves of the shade tree at a giant eagle circling in the sky above her head.
……
Above the Qingfeng Gorge.
At this time, Xu Taiping was holding Bai Yu’s neck and flying to a high altitude, and then looking down at the forest below from the high altitude.
“Xu Taiping, there are only a few disciples of the Qingxuan Sect down here, where is there any yellow sheep?”
Bai Yu, who was also overlooking the below, said with some dissatisfaction at this time.
“Brother Bai Yu, can you see the situation in the forest below clearly?”
Xu Taiping retracted his gaze and looked at Bai Yu in surprise.
He had just looked down for a long time, and only vaguely saw a few figures, and this was the result of his eyesight improving after breaking through to the Sea-Entering Realm.
“Of course!”
Hearing Xu Taiping’s tone so shocked, that Bai Yu was very proud.
“The eyesight of the white-headed eagle clan is actually so terrifying?”
Xu Taiping’s tone was full of surprise and admiration.
“The eyesight of our bald eagle clan is also among the best among spirit beasts. Not to mention those few big people, even a few ants can be seen clearly.”
Upon hearing Xu Taiping’s praise, Bai Yu immediately forgot about the matter of looking for the Mongolian gazelle.
“Then can Brother Bai Yu help me see if there is a girl in a green dress among the disciples below?”
Xu Taiping immediately asked.
“There is indeed a woman in green.”
Bai Yu, who was very happy to be praised by Xu Taiping, immediately glanced down.
“But the other girl next to her seems to be more beautiful.”
It then added another sentence.
