Chapter 44 - Don’t Be Too Greedy

“Nine… nine-tailed celestial fox?!” Qi Huan was a little dumbfounded. As slow as she was, she also knew what the nine tails represented. Qing Se, the most respected in the Monster Sect, was only born with seven tails. Qi Huan had really gotten a great deal! Now, she was just not sure if her shifu would throw her back to Nine Floors Monster Mountain in a fit of anger.

Anyway, she couldn’t return to Qing Yun Mountain for the time being now. She didn’t want to risk the others if the elders of the sacrificial hall followed her all the way to her sect, so it was safer to follow these three devil cultivators for now.

Qi Huan didn’t know how long they had been flying, anyway, she finally felt her heart slowly calming down after she could no longer see the three old folks.

“Phew~ That was too dangerous!”

“Heh, that’s just the beginning.” The masked man put his arm around Qi Huan and whispered. The three of them who were flying side by side suddenly swooped down towards the ground. The sudden move made Qi Huan unstable, and she immediately wrapped her legs around the masked man’s waist. She swore that she was definitely not trying to seduce him, it was just a reflex in the face of danger.

Qi Huan’s movements made the masked man stunned for a moment, and then his eyes looked at her weirdly. “Why, why are we suddenly going down!” In order to dispel the embarrassing situation between them, Qi Huan simply turned her head away from him, and complained. However, she still clinged on to the masked man, showing no means of letting go.

“They are catching up on us.” A golden light shone in the sky, but the golden light was actually mixed with blood red colour. The three elders somehow used some kind of magical tools that had abnormally fast speed, and in just a blink of an eye, the distance between them and Qi Huan had shortened more than half.

“Chi Yi, Yan Gui, you two go first, see you in Qian Li Town three days later.”

“Understood.” The two said in unison, and then escaped separately.

Qi Huan stared at the backs of the two dumbfoundedly. When encountering danger, shouldn’t the younger brothers go up and block the danger, while the boss escaped for his life? Why had it completely reversed? She thought it was safer to stay with the masked man, if she had known that the boss would be the one blocking the danger, she would have held on to Chi Yi instead.

“Hey, I haven’t lived long enough yet!” : The levels of cultivation, from the weakest, are: zhuji, ningqi, jiedan, yuanying, huashen, dujie, dacheng
