The old man can’t help wondering whether the comers are strongly backed or too impertinent.

They have approached.

“I know you,” a young man among the crowd says.

The old man’s pupils shrink.

He didn’t notice the young man before. Now, when he sees clearly the one who spoke, he feels a headache.

“The young master of the Shao Family?”

Shao Cangfeng laughs and says, “Sir, you know, the sea of herbs is quite dangerous at night. We also need to find a cave but we can’t find one after searching for a long time.”

The old man doesn’t speak.

Another young man next to Shao Cangfeng shouts, “Old chap, Cangfeng asked you the question out of respect. You’d better know your place!”

The old man frowns and flies into a rage, “How dare you!”

While he speaks, the coercion of the realm of Grand Master floods toward him.

Very quickly, he gets a response.

Two rushes of heavy Qi come to him.

Shao Cangfeng is also protected by two cultivators at the realm of Grand Master. Unexpectedly, it has been such a long time but he doesn’t lose either of them. Instead, Shao Shuai has lost one cultivator. Besides, the old man has exerted quite some strength due to the fight with the fiery horse. Certainly, he is no match for Shao Cangfeng’s helpers.

The two cultivators at the realm of Grand Master, who guard Shao Cangfeng, are rather masterful. They not only repel the old man but also make him vomit blood.

“Looks like your strength has been greatly exhausted too. Such being the case, are you sure you wanna stop me?”

The old man is lost for words.

If they enter the cave, Shao Shuai will be in danger.

Although he feels Gao Ge is very strong, Gao Ge has spent quite some strength saving Shao Shuai.

They’re in a disadvantageous position!

“Let them in.”

While the old man is hesitating, he suddenly hears Gao Ge’s voice from the cave. Hearing that, the old man instantly feels relieved. He has no idea what Gao Ge has done, but he doesn’t mean to question at all. He just steps aside and watches Shao Cangfeng and the others walk across him. After letting out a sigh, he also enters the cave.

Shao Cangfeng and his men enter the cave. Upon seeing Gao Ge as well as Shao Shuai lying there unconscious, Shao Cangfeng immediately puts on a gloomy look.

Gao Ge glimpses him and says with a prim expression, “Shao Cangfeng? You’re still alive, huh?”

“Hmph. Even if you’re dead, I won’t die anyway,” Shao Cangfeng says with a sneer.

Actually, he doesn’t hate Gao Ge. It’s just because Gao Ge and Shao Shuai are close that he dislikes Gao Ge.

Staring at Shao Shuai lying on the ground unconscious, he knits his brows and takes a glance at the old man and Gao Ge. He is considering what the odds of defeating Gao Ge and his companions are if they get into a fight.

It seems that Gao Ge doesn’t know what Shao Cangfeng is thinking. He says, “Oh right, Shao Cangfeng, well, we don’t have enough firewood. Go and collect some for us.”

“Why me?”

“Just take it as the rental. Besides, since you’re gonna spend the night in the cave, shouldn’t you do some work?” Gao Ge says with disgruntlement.

Hearing Gao Ge’s words, Shao Cangfeng doesn’t refute him. Instead, he turns to look at another young man and says, “Get out and fetch some firewood.”

“Feng, I…”

“What? Do you want me to do it instead?” Shao Cangfeng snaps.

“No, I’ll do it now!” That young man is frightened by Shao Cangfeng. He hastens to stand up and stumbles out of the cave with fear. After all, the sea of herbs is full of danger. Hence, he can only expect that he won’t run into any danger.

The two cultivators at the realm of Grand Master next to Shao Cangfeng can’t leave here.

He’s worried that Gao Ge may do something to him.

What if one of the cultivators leaves and Gao Ge suddenly attacks him?

If he were Gao Ge, he would do that. So, he is sure that Gao Ge will do the same thing.

The atmosphere in the cave becomes tense all of a sudden.

Xie Zhuolian looks at Shao Cangfeng and Gao Ge. She puckers her lips and stays alert, ruminating about what she should do if they get into a fight.

“What is this?” Shao Cangfeng glimpses Shuibao on Gao Ge’s shoulder and asks in confusion.

“A rare beast,” Gao Ge says calmly.

“A rare beast?” Shao Cangfeng laughs and says, “How about selling it to me?”

Gao Ge laughs and shakes his head, “You can’t afford it.”

Shao Cangfeng says laughingly, “How much do you want for it?”

“10 million spiritual jades. What do you say?” Gao Ge says with a smile.

Shao Cangfeng’s face darkens.

10 million spiritual jades?

How greedy!

Even 100 blessed spots can’t afford so many spiritual jades, let alone Shao Cangfeng.

“Are you kidding me?”

“You joked first,” Gao Ge says and ignores him with his eyes closed.

Shao Cangfeng snorts and touches his chin. Staring at the night sky outside the cave, he is still thinking.

Suddenly, he speaks.

“What’s wrong with Shao Shuai?”

“He’s drunk,” Gao Ge says, “Look at his red face.”

“Drunk?” Shao Cangfeng flies into a rage. Drinking in the sea of herbs? Seriously?!

“Do you think I’m an idiot?!” Shao Cangfeng says furiously, “If he is really drunk, why doesn’t he smell of alcohol at all?”

“You’re the one who regards me as an idiot,” Gao Ge says with a smile, “Think about this. Why would I tell you?”

The old man aside sweats.

He didn’t expect that Gao Ge could be rude to Shao Cangfeng.

They are weak now!

Won’t Gao Ge fear that Shao Cangfeng may choose to fight with them now?

However, very quickly, he has figured it out. He subconsciously thinks that Gao Ge must be threatening in manner but cowardly at heart.

Shao Cangfeng is not sure whether he can win, so he doesn’t dare to act willfully.

If Gao Ge shows the white feather, Shao Cangfeng will have no scruples.

At the thought of that, he is impressed by Gao Ge indeed.

Nice.

This is a nice move!

Actually, he has overthought it.

Gao Ge doesn’t think that much. This is his natural reaction.

Even faced with Guo Caiyang, Gao Ge still won’t show respect for him, let alone Shao Cangfeng.

Shortly, the young man comes back, holding a branch in his hand.

“Ahem, Feng, is this enough?”

Shao Cangfeng’s face darkens. The atmosphere has been already somewhat tense. Now, his man still has brought shame to him.

“Get out. Keep looking! How can it be enough?”

The young man looks grieved. Why can’t Shao Cangfeng keep it civil? However, at the thought of Shao Cangfeng’s identity, he has no other choice but to keep looking.

“You just freaked him out,” Gao Ge says, “You should send a capable man to keep him company.”

“Why don’t you go with him?” Shao Cangfeng says grumpily.

“That’s your buddy, not mine,” Gao Ge says composedly.

“My buddy?”

Gao Ge grins and looks as if harboring evil designs.

Shao Cangfeng feels something is wrong but he has no idea what to say.

There is a burp.

Suddenly, Shao Shuai, who is in a coma, shivers and burps.

It shouldn’t be a big deal but the thing is…

When Shao Shuai burps, he spits a flame.

Shao Cangfeng widens his eyes.

Gao Ge pats his own face.
