Xia Feng knew that the treasures she has gotten aren"t going to be hers until Miss Wife comes back home. Right now, those items were simply within her grasp, but the owner had yet to be decided. The water qi was still formidable and keen on destroying them.But lack of the small blue game and pa.s.sage of the time itself had done its job.
The cultivators were surviving very well thanks to the water cultivators under Miss Wife! The water formations were mixed up with the power of water swords and soon, everyone could let out the sighs of relief.
It also allowed up the cultivators to talk yet again.
"You are under The Water Slash Ho, am I right?"
"Correct."
The Water Slash Ho belongs to The Water Rippling Kingdom. It"s one of the strongest forces in this very higher realm... The one who was asking this was from the stronghold of the same rank.
His clothes were slightly darker and one could sense an earth qi coming out from him. His whole appearance was like a stone as he expressionlessly looked at Miss Wife who was clearly a leader here.
At this point, he knew what he has to do.
"We are from The Earth Crack Sect. The waters from this water spirit"s land surely have been dried up right now. It means we are the ones who can benefit the most of it and find the hidden treasures or just grab the qi."
"..."
"If you give us back our treasures, then we are willing to coorporate with you. The broken origin of the water spirit"s village should be deeply buried either in this temple or outside. Our powers surely will find it."
The man proposed something valuable and it caused Miss Wife to contemplate a little. She focused so deeply on it that her defenses lowered. It caused the rogue cultivator, who wasn"t willing to split up with his treasures, to take a bold move!
He sent his sword forward with a clear intent to cut off a hand of the lady!
"!"
Boom!
Erossu!
"It"s no good to doze off like that."
Xia Feng"s voice reached the heart of the lady, pulling her heartstrings! She thoroughly awakened and looking to the side, her eyes spotted Xia Feng holding a sword"s tip with his bare hands! Of course, the erossu was weaker now compared to the rogue cultivators, so the hand was bleeding.
But thanks to his strong body cultivation and divine bloodline, Xia Feng only had a little wound which was simply bleeding too much!
"Mr. Xia... Thank you for your help."
As the erossu chains were likewise here, Xia Feng had caught up the rogue cultivator flawlessly. In order to escape, that idiot had to cut off his own arm. However, the forces of The Water Slash Ho were not late to move at all.
They surrounded the lonely rogue cultivator and got rid of him with their water swords. It was swift action as no one even tried to help him... The cultivator himsself was aware of his fate, thus, his head didn"t need a long time to hit the ground.
The situation became rather tense, but thanks to Xia Feng"s words, Miss Wife decided to team up with The Earth Crack Sect! She pa.s.sed half of their treasures with the intention to give the rest during their "parting".
This way, Miss Wife has secured a safe help from the earth crack sect.
And as everyone was exhausted from the constant battles and struggles, the crowded village suddenly became a little calmer.
"I will send my people on a watch while you scour the territory."
"Yeah, thanks for your help..."
Miss Wife took the init.i.tave yet again, then everyone got scattered around. It was hard to move after water temple"s outburst, but it was far better than fighting the cultivators. Everyone settled themselves around, then Xia Feng got the lucky attention of the lady leader.
Naturally, she thanked him yet again, then settled herself close to the erossu.
"Miss Ophia doesn"t have to be so courteous."
"Ah, has my camouflage lost its effect? Hmm~~ Forgive me then."
Her name was Ophia and she was naturally a beautiful lady. As the wife of powerful n.o.ble, it"s bound for Miss Ophia to be one fine lady! The erossu just chuckled as she reached out to her face to check up on her "camouflage".
It was fine for it to lose its effect.
"You see, Mr. Xia... It"s easy to peek at others and check their intentions while you are in pretty similar position. That"s why, it"s good to have a few "personas"."
From her words alone, Xia Feng could guess that this wife as already addicted to sneaking around while pretending to be someone else! But it"s just as she said. This is a good way to check up others!
Everyone would be all over her if they knew she is the wife of Water Slash Ho!
Hoho!
They would do their best to protect her just to reap rewards from the n.o.ble.
"Recently, my cute Mayun had been talking a lot about new cultivator who is her peer. I just had to check what kind of father does that little rival have. And it seemed as if this new mission is a perfect chance."
"I see, I see~~ My Tianyu is enjoying her challenges with new rival too, so I hope you have a good impression of me."
"I do. No need to worry about it."
Ophia let out pleasant to listen giggles, then her attention came back to the earth cultivators. They were utilizing their earth qi and their movements were all visible to her eyes. Though she couldn"t really rely on them to pa.s.s a good treasure once it"s found, it was good they could rest a little.
"Even if water is gone, it"s not like the kingdom"s water can not reach this place. Once it"s done, it will be way easier to reach other strongholds" waters."
"In order to do that... We would need to create a ca.n.a.ls, but it"s not easy."
It"s hard to move a qi, even more in the higher realm! This is the reason for so many cultivators appearing here... The qi was disturbed and it was even flying away! It was much easier to gather it and use it for oneself later on.
Xia Feng thought about it like that, then he decided to bet on his erossu ladies.
"It should be possible for me."
"Really?"
"Really."
