Chapter 111: Fighting Openly and Secretly
Ye Ling nodded calmly, with no trace of pride on his face. He didn't even look at Bai Qiu. He looked warily into the depths of the yellow leaf forest, letting him lead the way instead.
Bai Qiu was deeply shocked. She was a dignified elder sister of Fengchi Sect. She was used to being cold and arrogant. She almost never praised fellow monks on weekdays. Today, she made an exception and praised Ye Ling, but she was ignored.
"What the hell?" Bai Qiu snorted coldly, feeling annoyed in his heart: "If it weren't for your superior healing skills, I wouldn't be interested in inviting you to join the team. It's best to die here as soon as possible. Bingpo’s top-quality Ice Spirit Sword is mine!”
Bai Qiu intended to make Ye Ling suffer some hardships. When walking in the forest, he deliberately kept a certain distance from him and led the female cultivators of his sect to walk far behind.
The junior sisters of Fengchi Sect were always afraid of Senior Sister Bai Qiu and did not dare to overstep their bounds, so they naturally followed behind Senior Sister.
Ye Ling dispersed his consciousness and noticed this phenomenon. He sneered in his heart and guessed it roughly. From the time Bai Qiu paid attention to his Ice Soul Sword, he had vaguely guessed that Bai Qiu might not have good intentions.
However, Ye Ling didn't take Bai Qiu's wishful thinking seriously. If it were a competition between qi training disciples, according to the rules of the competition, spiritual talismans and spirit beasts cannot be used. If it were just a competition of personal strength, Ye Ling, who was at the seventh level of qi training, would never be the opponent of Bai Qiu, who was at the peak of the ninth level. In this barren mountain and wild ridge, Ye Ling has five fourth-level spiritual beasts at his hands, as well as various powerful means. Even the monks in the early stages of foundation building are not afraid, so why be afraid of her!
Thinking of this, Ye Ling untied a spirit beast bag and blasted it with his spiritual thoughts. The spirit beast in the life bag tried to restrain its aura. Immediately afterwards, Ye Ling patted the spirit beast bag, and a pink brilliance flashed through, disappearing into the yellow leaves forest like lightning.
"Eh? Master Ye, what kind of spiritual beast did you release? It's so fast!"
The female cultivators of Fengchi Sect were astonished. This spiritual beast disappeared in the blink of an eye, and even Bai Qiu couldn't see it clearly.
Ye Ling said calmly: "It's a wind-type pink spirit rabbit. I use it to explore the path."
"Pink! Oh, is that a mutant rabbit?"
When the girls heard about Pink Spirit Rabbit, they immediately became interested! But everyone thought that what Master Ye released was a third-level spiritual rabbit, and no one thought about the fourth-level spiritual rabbit in the foundation building period.
"Master Ye, give it to us to see. If it looks good, I'll buy it!"
"Yes, Medicine Master Ye, it's so inappropriate for a manly man like you to carry a pink rabbit! Why don't you give it to us sisters?"
Bai Qiu, the senior sister of the Fengchi Sect, looked at Ye Ling with envy and jealousy, just like her fellow juniors, sighing secretly that all the good things had gone to him! The third-level mutated spirit rabbit itself is very rare. It is impossible to buy it without thousands of spirit stones. In many cases, it is even priceless and difficult to buy. It is simply rare to find it!
"Look at the speed at which the spirit rabbit is running, you can't go wrong! Medicine Master Ye, you just ask for the price. I know the goods, and the price will satisfy you!" Bai Qiu said expectantly, but also a bit proud at the same time. She didn't believe it. Would a seventh-level qi-training monk have more spiritual stones in his hand than hers?
Ye Ling listened to the chattering girls vying to buy it, feeling angry and amused at the same time. He secretly thought that even if he brought them, these female cultivators didn't know how to control beasts, and they couldn't carry a spiritual beast one level higher than themselves. Even a pink spirit rabbit wouldn't be able to carry it. It would scare them even more than the spiritual pressure in the early stages of foundation building.
So Ye Ling flatly refused and said calmly: "I only value the pink spirit rabbit's speed, agility and sharp senses. As for its color and appearance, it doesn't matter. Haha, I only have this path-finding spirit beast. , I cannot sell it to you.”
The women cried out in disappointment, and Bai Qiu frowned slightly, a flash of sternness flashed between his brows, but then it disappeared.
Ye Ling's consciousness caught her changes and knew what she was thinking, most likely the idea of killing someone and seizing the treasure. Ye Ling smiled at this, it was not that easy to kill him! Even the Lu family monks and old thief Zhou Chong who were in the early stages of foundation building couldn't do it. She, an ice cultivator who had reached the Great Perfection stage of Qi training, had no chance in front of Ye Ling!
Ye Ling ignored them. The range of his fourth-level Pink Ling Rabbit's spiritual consciousness was 120 feet, and through the connection between Ye Ling and the Pink Ling Rabbit's soul imprint, this perception was even further.
Within a few miles around, Ye Ling could sense wherever the Pink Spirit Rabbit had jumped.
Among the female cultivators of the Fengchi Sect, only Qiaoyu, who is at the eighth level of Qi training, has a spiritual beast that can explore the way. Seeing that her senior sister had hit a snag, she deliberately competed with Ye Ling and showed off her spiritual beast, muttering. He muttered: "Isn't it just a mutated pink rabbit, so great? I also have a mutated fox!"
With that said, Qiaoyu patted the spirit beast bag proudly, and a fiery red spirit fox sprang out. It was so cute, and all the female cultivators were in admiration!
Qiaoyu smiled even more in the jealous eyes of everyone. She didn't show her pride and only looked at Ye Ling sideways.
Ye Ling smiled slightly, sent a spiritual thought to the pink spirit rabbit, and then said with a smile: "Although Miss Qiaoyu's spirit fox is good, it is too flashy and can only be kept as a pet."
"Who said that? My spirit fox is not slow, don't you believe it? You look good!"
Qiaoyu patted the spirit fox and ordered it to explore the way.
Unexpectedly, her spirit fox seemed to sense an extremely dangerous aura, and as soon as it ran ten feet away, it immediately ran back to its master's arms.
Qiao Yu was very surprised and said angrily: "Go!"
The spirit fox still hesitated to leave, lying in front of Qiao Yu, looking at its master pitifully with its two fox eyes.
Bai Qiu's heart moved, and he asked curiously: "Qiao Yu, your spirit fox is unwilling to explore the way. Could it be that there is another powerful fire butterfly king in the forest ahead? Did it sense it in advance?"
Ye Ling said leisurely: "Don't worry! There is not even a fire butterfly within a radius of three miles! I'm afraid that Miss Qiao Yu's fire spirit fox is timid by nature and was frightened by my spirit rabbit, hehe."
Qiao Yu was anxious. Losing face in front of her sisters was simply going to kill her! Qiao Yu bit her red lips tightly and urged the fiery red spirit fox to explore the way several times, but the spirit fox remained indifferent.
Ye Ling smiled, put his hands behind his back, and led the way leisurely in front.
Qiao Yu stamped her feet in anger, staring at Ye Lingyue's figure in a white satin gown. Suddenly, she saw Ye Ling stopped walking, as if concentrating on something.
"Suspicious! You are the only one who is cautious, hum!"
Qiao Yu said unconvinced, and had a prejudice against Ye Ling.
Ye Ling turned around and said solemnly: "Miss Bai, three miles away in the northwest direction is the strong team led by Wei Tong of Yuncang Sect! They seem to have a guide and are very familiar with the route. They went straight to the northwest, and it is very likely that they are heading for Hanqiong Flower!"
