Chapter 87 It’s not an illusion
The secret realm is full of high-level monsters. Wei Qinglan and Jiang Lisheng have already seen them. The human-faced beast Wu Luo, the four-horned beast Fu Zhu, and the eel all have high cultivation bases.
In particular, they are good at attacking in groups.
If Jiang Lisheng didn't have a usable and easy-to-use mid-level magic weapon, and the three people and one beast cooperated well, the magic weapon in Jiang Lisheng's hand was easy to use, and the digging of the four-horned beast caused a bloody mess and was a bit cruel, I'm afraid it would not scare away this group of monsters.
If a single disciple were to fight alone and besieged like this, it would naturally be difficult for him to survive.
Jiang Lisheng looked at Zhu Wenyin and said, "Senior Sister Zhu, there must have been countless casualties among the cultivators who entered the secret realm, right?"
Zhu Wenyin nodded silently. She also knew that Jiang Lisheng was dissatisfied with her abandoning the mountain jelly that saved her life and escaping alone. She said helplessly, "It's not that I'm escaping alone regardless of the friendship between fellow disciples. At the beginning, we formed the Kunlun Sword Formation, but the group of monsters we encountered were very powerful and good at finding breakthroughs. Later, they fell one after another. The remaining few of us couldn't deal with them. At this critical moment, we could only escape. I don't want to escape alone, but my ability is limited. I can't save others and sacrifice myself. I really can't do it."
Jiang Lisheng was speechless when he saw how honest she was.
Wei Qinglan didn't say anything, she just asked Zhu Wenyin, "Where did Senior Sister Zhu fall to in the first place?"
Zhu Wenyin heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that Wei Qinglan didn't show her contempt and disdain, and Jiang Lisheng didn't say anything bad like he did when he first met her. "We went to Fang Gao Mountain and encountered a swarm of bees."
"Ah? Are you releasing Gaoshan?" Jiang Lisheng was surprised. "Similar to bees, called Wenwen, a large group, right?"
"Yes."
Jiang Lisheng exclaimed, "We also encountered them. They are indeed very powerful, but fortunately we have Senior Brother Wei's magic weapon and strong defense, otherwise we would have been killed by their poison needles and venom."
"You also went to Fanggao Mountain?" Zhu Wenyin was also surprised. "More than ten of us were dispersed there. How come we didn't meet you, Junior Brother Wei?"
Jiang Lisheng made a "huh" sound, "We didn't go down to Gaoshan at all. We were just passing by and asked Shan Gao to go down to collect Mengmu. But it attracted a large group of Wenwen and trapped us for a long time. Later, Senior Brother Wei said that if the Wenwen trapped us again, he would catch them all and use them for me to refine weapons. I agreed. The Wenwen probably heard it and ran away in fear."
Zhu Wenyin: “…”
Is it that simple?
Jiang Lisheng said regretfully: "Those Wenwens look scary, but it turns out they are actually very timid. But Senior Sister Zhu, you are also amazing. You actually ran west from Fanggao Mountain to Qingyao Mountain by yourself. It's thousands of miles. You are really a good runner."
Zhu Wenyin was helpless. "I have no choice. There are high-level monsters everywhere. The further east you go, the higher-level and more powerful the monsters are. I can only go west."
Jiang Lisheng tilted his head, "Is that so."
She turned to look at Wei Qinglan, "Brother Wei, this secret realm is so abnormal, is there any way to send a message and ask the sect to send someone? Otherwise, wouldn't it be likely that all the disciples who came in would not be able to get out? How big a loss would our three sects suffer then?"
Wei Qinglan shook her head, "There's no way to send a message."
Jiang Li sighed, "Ah."
Zhu Wenyin asked, "Brother Wei, logically speaking, you have a high level of cultivation and should not enter this secret realm. Why did you..." Wei Qinglan said briefly, "Uncle Master Qi predicted that there was something unusual happening in the Kushan area. After I arrived at Kushan, I met Sister Jiang and felt something was wrong, so I went with her to Daying Mountain and entered this secret realm."
Zhu Wenyin nodded.
Jiang Lisheng thought, it was so simple, he just said nothing about Senior Brother Chen, "I also learned fortune-telling, but I always cracked the tortoise shell, so I stopped learning it later."
Wei Qinglan glanced at her and said, "Is it because you are interested in too many things?"
Jiang Lisheng shook his head. "No, every time I tell fortunes, I get backlashed. But I don't know why. It doesn't backlash on me, but on the people closest to me. Many people went to my master to complain about me. My master had no choice but to forcibly ban me from learning this."
Wei Qinglan let out a sigh.
Zhu Wenyin was surprised, "How could such a thing exist?"
"Yeah." Jiang Lisheng looked at her, feeling a little itchy. "I haven't tried divination for a long time. If you have a tortoise shell, why don't you give it to me? Sit closer to me and I'll give it to you."
Zhu Wenyin shook her head, "I didn't."
She is still seriously injured and has not recovered yet, so even if she has the ability, no one dares to give it to her. It is said that she has been in trouble every day in Qingxu, and she has never learned anything. She always causes trouble for others, and everyone in Qingxu hates her. Today, she has no spiritual power and looks no different from an ordinary person, but she can still live well, which is also her ability.
Jiang Lisheng pouted and said to Wei Qinglan, "Brother Wei, wait until your injury is healed, I will give you a try."
Wei Qinglan agreed readily, "Okay."
Zhu Wenyin looked at the two of them in silence. It was not her illusion. Junior Brother Wei was indeed different from others in his attitude towards Jiang Lisheng. In front of Jiang Lisheng, he did not have his unique coldness and aloofness. Did she think that the backlash of divination was a good thing? He would agree immediately if she told him to try.
She couldn't help but hold her breath. She had thought of something bad, but seeing this with her own eyes, she still felt very uncomfortable. How could the young genius of Kunlun be like this? She endured it, but still couldn't help reminding, "Brother Wei, you haven't forgotten that you are going to take on the important task of the sect, right?"
Wei Qinglan had already finished asking the question and retracted her gaze. After hearing this, she turned her head and looked at Zhu Wenyin expressionlessly.
Zhu Wenyin's heart tightened, as if whatever she was thinking, at this moment, was exposed in Wei Qinglan's indifferent eyes. How could he not understand what she meant by being so smart and perceptive? But she claimed that she was right. He was mixed up with Jiang Lisheng, so close, what good could it be? As long as there is a cultivator, everyone knows that Jiang Lisheng, the only disciple of the Qingxu Yu Sect Master, is a loser in cultivation. And he, a proud son of Kunlun, can he afford to be delayed by her?
"Of course I haven't forgotten, but Senior Sister Zhu seems to have forgotten who saved you." Wei Qinglan said lightly, threw away the half-eaten fish, stood up and said to Jiang Lisheng: "Let's go."
Jiang Li said "Ah hey" twice, looking at the half-thrown fish on the ground with distress, "Brother Wei, why are you wasting it?"
Seeing that Wei Qinglan ignored her and walked forward, she could only stare at Zhu Wenyin and said unhappily, "What nonsense are you talking about? Can't you just take a rest? Everyone knows that he will take on the important task of Kunlun Sect. Is there any need for you to keep talking about it?"
