“What are you smiling at?” Ji Wujiong snorted again. “Have you figured out how to utilize the three arrays? What did you stealthily do behind the closed door? Do you understand that we are running out of ti?”
“Yeah.” ng Qi nodded. Her smile didn’t fade at all. At this mont, even facing Ji Wujiong’s full sarcasm, her good mood wasn’t affected in the slightest.
“Let’s go to the mayor now.” ng Qi strode out of the inn. “I have figured out a thod.”
“Just now, you…” Ji Wujiong saw ng Qi’s abrupt change of mood and couldn’t help asking: “What happened?”
“Nothing.” ng Qi shook her head.
“Liar!” Ji Wujiong snorted again. However, he knew how stubborn this girl actually was. If she refused to tell him, there was nothing he could do.
Ji Wujiong followed behind ng Qi, who looked so happy that even her steps beca nimble like a little oriole. Her usually calm and indifferent face was beaming. Even the corners of her eyes were full of smiles, which added a touch of youthfulness to her face.
Ji Wujiong was familiar with ng Qi’s senior sister Lu Qingran, and knew that the girl was a rare beauty even in Three Thousand Worlds. He never considered ng Qi to be particularly beautiful. Unexpectedly, once she smiled so happily, it turned out that she was also very beautiful, not even lost to Lu Qingran.
“Mayor.” The two soon found Fengyu Town’s mayor near the inn.
The mayor’s lancholic face had eased a lot, as if he was very confident that with the two rescuers’ arrival, their town was going to be saved.
“We decided to ambush Tengshe Sect on their way here.” ng Qi didn’t waste ti and straightly began to explain her plan.
“Oh?” The mayor’s expression finally changed a bit. He turned toward ng Qi, eyes full of surprise: “Ambush?”
“Yes!” ng Qi replied calmly: “Rather than just sitting and waiting for death, we should find a way to fight back. We are going to ambush Tengshe Sect outside Fengyu Town, so as to maximize the safety of ordinary residents in the town.” She continued: “Otherwise, with only and him here, we won’t be able to protect the whole town and make sure that no ordinary residents will be hard.”
As ng Qi spoke, she observed the mayor intently, as to not miss the slightest change in his expression. ng Qi wasn’t sure whether the thod she proposed was against the rule set by the barrier or not. After all, here is inside Apricot Forest, the holy land for the dical cultivators, and her plan was to slaughter the enemies instead of saving lives.
“Fellow Daoist, what you said makes sense!” Unexpectedly, the mayor agreed after hesitating for a mont. “Rather than waiting for death passively, it is better to fight back with all our strength. However…” He looked back at ng Qi: “What do you need to do?”
“We need help.” ng Qi turned her head, glanced at Ji Wujiong, and said again: “He and I will go out of the town in advance to prepare for the ambush. Please summon all cultivators of the Golden Core and above. Leave one-fourth of them to guard Fengyu Town, and the rest are to rush to et us as soon as possible.”
“Alright.” The mayor nodded. He pondered for a mont, and suddenly handed ng Qi a small brocade bag. “Since two guests are going to ambush Tengshe Sect, this thing should be useful for you.”
“This is…” ng Qi lowered her head and injected a bit of spiritual aura into the brocade bag. Her expression suddenly changed, and she looked back at the mayor in surprise.
“What’s inside?” Ji Wujiong asked curiously.
“Qiwu Powder.” ng Qi was a bit stunned. This brocade bag contained a large box of Qiwu powder, the poison they encountered in the previous test. It had taken them a lot of effort to get rid of Qiwu powder from the land. Unexpectedly, the mayor of Fengyu Town, who needed their protection, gave them this thing.
“Hahahaha…” As if guessing ng Qi’s thoughts, the mayor laughed heartily. “All dicinal ingredients in the world are the sa. What made one a poison and the other dicine?”
ng Qi was stunned.
“Things that harm people are poisons, and things that save people are dicines.” The mayor walked away as he spoke. “I will go now and gather those cultivators as per your instruction. Two guests, please do not worry. I will definitely send them to the ambush place. I am handing to you the lives of all residents of our Fengyu Town. Please do your best to protect everyone.”
ng Qi held the brocade bag in her hand and looked thoughtfully at the mayor’s departing figure.
She suddenly seed to understand a little bit about why this holy land was so important for dical cultivators.
The great predecessors from ancient tis created this place. They left behind this barrier was not just to teach younger generations so miraculous pill formula or dical spell, but also to teach the true principles of dical cultivation.
ng Qi sighed in awe and threw the brocade bag into her storage space item. “Let’s go,” she said, walking towards the town gate.
The barrier prohibited the usage of flying magic tools. But ng Qi and Ji Wujiong were cultivators, so their walking speed was not slow. They quickly left the town from the west gate, headed towards the direction to Tengshe Sect, and arrived at a place around thirty miles away from Fengyu Town.
“Here…” ng Qi looked around, “…seems very suitable for an ambush.”
The area outside Fengyu Town was mostly flat land, with nothing to be used as cover. But the place ng Qi and Ji Wujiong were now was surrounded by undulating mountains. The mountains around were pretty high, with only one wide road in the middle. Compared with the previous open plain, this place was very suitable for setting up arrays and conducting an ambush attack.
“It seems that this place was specially prepared for us.” ng Qi muttered. She took out the materials needed to set up arrays from her storage space item.
Ji Wujiong didn’t co to help. He stood with a cold face on the side, making up his mind to first observe what ng Qi was going to do. He needed to know whether she really had found out a way or just being stubborn. He wanted to see whether she would co to ask for his help in the end!
However, the slender blue-robed girl didn’t even Ji Wujiong a glance as she began to move around swiftly.
“Huh?” Ji Wujiong was dumbfounded for a mont. But the next second, his eyes glinted sharply.
——Very well. Once they left this damn barrier, he would imdiately tie ng Qi up and forced her to acknowledge him as her master!
