Chapter 49: An unexpected surprise
by SurroundedbyBooksIn the small valley, Bu Gong’s posture seemed a little strange; if there were outsiders, they would be able to see that Bu Gong’s body was slightly leaning forward, and he took half a step forward, as if he wanted to move forward but was abruptly stopped.
Because at this time, Bu Gong’s consciousness had been completely gathered into his mind, his eyes fixed on the black mist evil spirit sealed by black lines in front of him, and his expression became completely solemn.
“You, how could you possibly speak?” Bu Gong’s face looked extremely ugly at this moment, his eyes fixed on the black mist squirming in the black ball in front of him; there was a hint of unexpected shock and a hint of disbelief in his eyes.
“Little boy, let me out; I, I will give you a reward.” As Bu Gong finished speaking, a small and hoarse voice came out from the black thread ball again; at this time, Bu Gong could hear clearly that the source of this voice was the black mist evil spirit in the black thread ball.
“Huh…” Bu Gong took a few deep breaths and forced himself to suppress the violent waves in his heart, regaining some calmness. Then he looked at the ball of black thread again.
“Tell me first, why can you speak? Weren’t you unable to speak some time ago?” Bu Gong asked softly.
“Ahem…boy, if you didn’t absorb my life energy, do you think I would spend so much effort talking to you?” The hoarse voice came out from the ball of black thread again, but it sounded a little weak.
Hearing this, Bu Gong was a little stunned for a moment, “Life energy? What is that?”; he didn’t expect that the other party would say such a thing inexplicably.
“Hmph, do you really think you are very talented? You can break through to the third level of body shaping in just one year?” The other party snorted coldly at this.
“Well, I didn’t say I have a high talent. I really don’t know what life energy you are talking about.” Bu Gong had regained his previous calmness at this time, but his vigilance did not diminish in the slightest.
He had personally experienced the power of the evil spirit in front of him. If it weren’t for the inexplicable black lines in his mind, he would probably have ceased to exist long ago.
“Boy, after you came out of my tomb, did you feel that opening up the acupoints in your body was quick and easy?”
Hearing the other party say this, Bu Gong pondered for a moment, then nodded; it was indeed true, this kind of change had occurred in his body since he came out of the tomb.
Moreover, Bu Gong once suspected that the changes in his body were most likely due to the evil spirit in his mind; but it was just his speculation at the time, and now he didn’t expect that it was really because of this reason.
“Hehe…what do you think, kid? Do you understand now?” Seeing Bu Gong like this, the black mist evil spirit in the black thread ball smiled coldly again.
At this time, Bu Gongshi came back to his senses and looked at the sealed evil spirit in front of him. After hesitating for a moment, he continued to ask, “You can speak now. Does that mean you have a way to get out of my mind?”
This is what Bu Gong is most concerned about. If the inexplicable black line in his mind cannot trap the evil spirit’s consciousness, then he will be in real trouble.
“Hmph, kid, don’t worry about this. At least I don’t have the ability to escape now.” To Bu Gong’s surprise, the evil spirit actually answered his question.
As the words just fell, the evil spirit spoke again: “Boy, how about we make a deal?”
Hearing this, Bu Gong suddenly became alert. He then looked suspiciously at the wriggling black mist consciousness in front of him. “Don’t treat me like a fool who knows nothing. Is your ultimate goal to get me to let you go?”
“Uh, hehe… this… you can say that, but I promise I won’t do anything bad to you.” Seeing that his inner calculations were exposed by Bu Gong in front of him, the evil spirit laughed dryly with a bit of discomfort.
“Huh…you promise that you won’t do anything bad to me? Do you think I will believe you?” Bu Gong sneered at this.
“You want me to let you out? Don’t even think about it. Maybe when I become stronger than you in the future, I’ll consider it.”
“Uh, kid, isn’t what you said just nonsense? Wait until you become stronger than me in the future? Humph, to be frank, with you? You can’t even break through the Kui Yuan realm, and you still want to be stronger than me? You are dreaming.” After hearing Bu Gong’s words, the evil spirit sealed by the black line was so angry that he almost jumped up.
At this moment, Bu Gong laughed strangely: “Hey… you’ve said so much to me, does that mean that you will become even weaker? Your chances of forcibly breaking through the seal in the future will be even slimmer?”
When the evil spirit in the ball of black thread heard this, it was a little surprised and dazed for a moment.
“Ah, you cunning boy, you led me to talk so much nonsense just to delay time? Okay, okay, you are very good.” The evil spirit felt exasperated at Bu Gong’s words; after saying this, he fell into silence again, and no matter how much Bu Gong shouted, there was no response.
“Huh, this is really unexpected. Fortunately he can’t come out, otherwise…” Thinking of this, Bu Gong shuddered suddenly.
Then Bu Gong carefully looked at the ball of black lines a few more times, and seeing that there was indeed no movement, his consciousness reluctantly withdrew from his mind space and returned to his body.
After moving his slightly stiff body, Bu Gong wiped the sweat from his forehead, but in his heart he felt lucky. “I didn’t expect that just an occasional breakthrough could actually alarm that evil spirit? However, it seems that he can’t do anything to me.”
With this thought in mind, Bu Gong walked towards the outskirts of the small valley. Although it was a false alarm today, fortunately nothing serious happened. Moreover, from what the evil spirit said, it seemed that he was absorbing his life energy all the time.
The reason why he could cultivate so fast was precisely because of that life energy; thinking of this, Bu Gong’s mouth curled up slightly, this was really an unexpected surprise.
After straightening his clothes, Bu Gong rushed towards the dormitory.
“You, who are you? Let me go…” Just as Bu Gong was walking, a faint sound of a woman crying came from far away and reached his ears.
“Huh? What is this?” Bu Gong paused slightly because of the voice; but that was only for a moment, and then he walked forward again.
He was in no mood to bother with these trivial matters as his own problems were not yet solved. Besides, Blind Zhang had once warned him not to get involved in other people’s affairs as some of them would be thankless and might get him into trouble.
“Assholes, don’t come over here.” There was a hint of panic in the faint voice.
“Is there anyone? Help… wuwu…”
“Hehe… scream, little girl, if anyone comes here, I will walk backwards for you.” At the same time, a slightly arrogant male voice was heard, but with a sinister smile.
But at this time, Bu Gong frowned slightly, because he felt a sense of familiarity in the female voice, as if he had heard it somewhere before.
So, Bu Gong simply stopped at this moment, frowned, hesitated for a long time, and finally rushed towards the source of the sound.
Deep in the woods ahead, there were several people standing; they were disciples of a sect all wearing white robes, about four or five of them. Leading them was a young man in white with a handsome face, a jade pendant hanging around his waist, and an evil look in his eyes.
“Tsk tsk, Senior Brother Xiao, this girl looks so pretty. It’s a good opportunity for us brothers to have her. Haha…” A man in white clothes standing next to him said respectfully to the young man in white robe in the front with a smile on his face.
“Go ahead. If anyone comes, Senior Brother Xiao will be the first to go. Why are you so anxious?”
“Yes, yes, it was Senior Brother Xiao who was the first to go up…” The first voice showed a tone of flattery again.
Not far in front of these men, there was a pretty figure standing tall and straight; her pretty face was as if she was about to cry, very touching, her beautiful eyes were full of panic and tears.
Her slender white hands were clenched tightly, and her fingertips were a little white. Her plain dress looked a little messy, and her whole person gave people a feeling of being delicate and frail.
And this girl was none other than the one that Bu Gong brought out from the Liu family in Xuanhuo City, Lin Qiaoru. At this moment, she had a helpless look on her face, and her beautiful eyes were filled with fear and a little anger as she stared fiercely at the men in front of her.
At this time, the young man who was the leader among the men in white, glanced at Lin Qiaorou’s delicate body without any concealment; he couldn’t help but murmured: “Tsk tsk… Such a beautiful little girl, she has quite the assets, with the right curves and the right thinness. What a charming girl.”
There was a strong surge of heat in his eyes, and the fiery passion in them flashed frequently.
“Hehe…Um, Senior Brother Xiao, please hurry up and give us a break when you’re done.” A man in white with a shifty look behind him couldn’t help but urge him.
Lin Qiaorou listened to the men’s undisguised sexual remarks across from her. A sadness filled her beautiful eyes, and a hint of helplessness and bitterness flashed across her pretty face. “Hehe… Is this my fate?”
Thinking of this, a hint of determination emerged in the depths of the girl’s beautiful eyes, with a hint of dead silence in them; at this time, the man in white who was called Senior Brother Xiao slowly stepped forward and walked in front of Lin Qiaoru.
Then he lifted Lin Qiaorou’s pointed and fair chin with his fingers, licked his lips, and smiled wickedly: “Hehe… little girl, if you serve me well, maybe I won’t let them touch you when I’m happy. What do you think?”
“Bah, a bunch of beasts!” Lin Qiaorou’s beautiful eyes were filled with disgust. Now that things had come to this, Lin Qiaorou knew that no matter how scared she was, it would be of no use, so she decided to just throw in the towel.
But at this moment, a thin but resolute figure emerged in her mind; the man in a red robe who broke into the Liu family and brought her out; thinking of this, Lin Qiaoru’s mouth curled up with a trace of inexplicable bitterness, and then she shook her head slightly.
She knew that there was no way she could escape this time, and Bu Gong would never come to save her this time; and there was a strong sense of determination in her beautiful eyes.
“You guys, wait over there for a while, it will be your turn soon, hehe…” Senior Brother Xiao turned around and shouted at the men in white behind him, then turned around and looked at the charming Lin Qiaoru in front of him with fiery eyes.
