Chapter 149: Gift a Precious Treasure to a Beautiful Woman and Head to Qinyang City
“Uh.”
Hearing this, Li Mengxi was a little stunned. A normal person keep this precious treasure straight away, right?
Then what was going on with him? Could it be…
She pondered for a moment, her delicate body trembling slightly, then she looked at him with a strange expression.
Seeing her expression, Su Yi knew that Li Mengxi must have misunderstood something. He naturally had his reasons for giving this precious treasure to her.
It was not that he did not need it, but that he still had the seed…
So he hurriedly explained.
“Fellow Daoist Li, you’re looking at me like that. Could it be that you’ve misunderstood something? I’ve collected two of these One-colored Green Lotuses. Is there a problem with giving one of them to you?”
This time, it was her turn to be startled. He had collected two One-colored Green Lotuses? She did not quite believe it, but looking at Su Yi’s expression, it did not seem like he was lying.
Moreover, this One-colored Green Lotus was very tempting to her. Just as she was still hesitating, Su Yi stuffed the treasure into her hand and ran away.
Before he left, he left a faint sentence behind. “Take it. Just treat it as you owe me a favor.”
As he finished speaking, he had already arrived on the sh.o.r.e.
Li Mengxi, who was in the middle of the lake, stared blankly at the One-colored Green Lotus in her hand. Then, he smiled faintly and kept it.
Indeed, he was being a little too polite. This made people think too much.
On the surface of the lake, the faint fog formed by treasure began to slowly disperse. It was unknown when the fireflies that had originally gathered here had left. Perhaps it was when they were chasing after the Green Rock Longevity Giant Turtle.
The sky was dim and the stars in the sky flickered. If it was not for the occasional beast roar, it would definitely be a paradise.
…
The next day, when Su Yi set off again, Li Mengxi’s existence was long gone by his side.
Long ago, she had followed the road and wanted to return to the Central Plains, while he still needed to go to Qinw.a.n.g Ridge to explore the unknown ancient sword tomb.
From the small forest path, he saw an endless horizon with a glance. His eyes narrowed slightly before he softly muttered, “looks like I need to speed up as well.”
As soon as he said it, his body moved, leaving behind a gust of light wind on the spot. He had already turned into a white flowing shadow and sped away.
It had been a long time since there was rain on the small forest path, and the path was slightly dry. Just a gentle breeze was enough to stir up the drifting dust.
At this time, it was already daytime. From time to time, there were already small groups of cultivators on the path in the Forest of Fireflies.
However, most of them were in the qi condensation realm, and the person in the lead was only in the early stage of the foundation establishment realm.
Suddenly, a white shadow flashed past their eyes, stirring up waves of dust.
“d.a.m.n, who is it! Such a lack of civic-mindedness!”
Some of the qi condensation cultivators complained, but they did not expect to be reprimanded by their captain.
“Shut up!”
The leading cultivator’s face was somewhat pale, and his body seemed to be covered in cold sweat.
He was already a first-level foundation establishment cultivator, and when the white shadow flashed past, he could vaguely see the figure within.
Unexpectedly, the person actually smiled at him. What kind of existence was this? Even at such a speed, he still had the leisure to smile at him. This kind of strength was definitely some famous big shot in the Central Plains. It was not something that casual cultivators like them could afford to provoke.
Therefore, he hurriedly reprimanded his subordinate who was complaining. He only hoped that he would not be heard by that terrifying cultivator.
Of course, Su Yi naturally could not see all of this. At this moment, he was squinting his eyes as he moved at high speed.
His speed was too fast. With his current cultivation, he was still unable to control it freely. Even at some corners, he had to lower his speed to make adjustments.
In this regard, he sighed slightly in his heart. This increase in strength really could not be stopped.
If his strength increased again, his speed would definitely increase again. However, with his current speed, he could easily control it. That was also an extremely good thing.
With this in mind, his pace sped up again. He calculated the time slightly, and when he reached the Qinyang City, the time between consuming the medicinal pill had just finished cooling down.
At that time, he would mature a One-colored Green Lotus to help him break through and reach the middle stage of the foundation establishment realm! After that, he would have some a.s.surance to explore the ancient sword tomb.
Having made up his mind, he did not think too much. He focused all of his attention on hurrying on the road.
Suddenly, a shadow streaked across the dry firefly forest path like a shooting star. The dust it stirred up was unbearable.
…
At noon, in Qinyang City.
It was a tier 2 small city. Although it was not as grand as the Central Plains of the great wilderness, it did have everything.
There was a Chamber of Commerce filled with people coming and going. There was also a blacksmith shop that was steaming hot.
There was also a familiar street selling goods. Everything was like an ordinary city, living a normal life.
However, the people walking on the streets were all cultivators. Most of the cultivators walking on the streets of Qinyang City were in the qi condensation realm, and a few were in the mortal realm. It was almost impossible to see Foundation establishment realm cultivators.
A small city was a small city, so it was naturally not as grand as the Central Plains.
At this moment, Su Yi had already arrived outside the gate of Qinyang City. He looked at the bustling scene in the city and a hint of emotion flashed through his heart.
There was a time when he had thought that his life would be like this in the future, but everything had changed.
Feeling the explosive power in his body, the corners of his mouth rose slightly. The current him was no longer the qi condensation realm that could be easily controlled by others back then.
Even in the Central Plains, if they wanted to touch him, those forces would have to consider whether want to risk dying as they dealt with him.
This was the confidence that strength gave him.
Then, with a heroic look in his eyes, he wandered between the streets, looking for a place to settle down, when he heard the rapid sound of horse hooves.
“Hey!!” With a cry of surprise, a coachman pulled the reins and stopped the carriage.
“Brat, you don’t want to live anymore!”
A low and urgent shout rang out. He turned around to take a look. A coachman was glaring at him angrily as he cursed.
He was also slightly stunned. He stepped aside and apologized. “Sorry, Sorry. I was distracted for a moment and didn’t pay attention.”
As he spoke, Su Yi retreated to the side and tried to let the carriage pa.s.s on this narrow street.
However, the sudden stop of the carriage was naturally felt by the people in the carriage.
A middle-aged man’s voice sounded, “Old Long, what’s going on outside?”
The coachman’s expression changed slightly. “Master, it’s nothing. There’s a reckless brat who didn’t pay attention to block the way. He’s already moved aside.”
However, just as he finished speaking, a large hand from the carriage behind him opened the curtain and revealed a figure.
Seeing this, the coachman did not say anything. He only looked at Su Yi with an apologetic look.
The person who revealed a figure after opening the curtain was a middle-aged man. He had thick eyebrows between his brows and a beard that had not moved for a long time. He had a fierce look on his face,
he immediately saw Su Yi who had stepped aside. Su Yi was also looking straight at the middle-aged man who had suddenly appeared.
“Sir, are you the famous Su Yi from Central Plains City?”
