Chapter 20

After Mo Cheng fell, Xie Ruolan appeared behind him, and with a delicate hand, she grabbed Mo Cheng’s storage bag, which then fell into her possession.

Xie Ruolan then flipped through the storage bag, took out some items, and immediately threw the bag to Lin Haoming, saying, "Sell the rest!"

Lin Haoming looked at the storage bag in his hands and finally understood the source of his goods.

The saying "killing and arson, a golden belt" was indeed not a lie. Ignoring what Xie Ruolan had taken, the remaining items were worth at least two hundred spirit stones. If you included what she had taken, the total would be around seven or eight hundred spirit stones.

This was the wealth of a Ninth Layer Qi Cultivation disciple. If it were a Great Completion Qi Cultivation disciple, it would probably be even more.

"You're quite clever, knowing that even your fellow disciples here can't be trusted. Well done!" After putting away the items, Xie Ruolan rarely praised Lin Haoming.

But Lin Haoming was dissatisfied, "Senior Sister, you must have noticed this guy hiding earlier. If I hadn't been careful and he had managed to ambush me, wouldn't I have died in vain?"

"If such a thing could kill you, what value would you have?" Xie Ruolan rolled her eyes, showing extreme disdain.

Lin Haoming, seeing her eye roll, believed that if he had really died, she would have taken both his and Mo Cheng’s storage bags after killing Mo Cheng. If she was feeling generous, she might have released a fireball to burn his body!

However, Lin Haoming soon realized that this woman, who was two years younger than him, was definitely not that kind-hearted. He watched as this beautiful woman first took out a gourd and sucked Mo Cheng’s soul into it. Then she took out a bright red stone, placed it on Mo Cheng’s body, and cast a spell. Mo Cheng quickly withered, and all his blood and essence were absorbed by the strange stone.

Only then did Lin Haoming truly understand how ruthless Xie Ruolan was. After killing someone, she not only took their belongings but also used everything that could be utilized, truly squeezing out all remaining value.

After taking everything she could, Xie Ruolan still released a fireball to burn the body, then disappeared into the forest.

Lin Haoming knew he was being left as bait.

Perhaps his good luck had run out from the start. He didn’t find any enemies or the Red Sun Ginseng.

However, just before dusk, he suddenly heard the sound of a fight a few miles away and immediately ran over, concealing his presence.

Soon, he discovered that one of the three people he had met in the teleportation hall was now fighting a Great Completion Qi Cultivation cultivator in white, who was controlling five flying swords.

Lin Haoming didn’t know why the three had come out together but were now down to one, but it was clear that even though this person was also at the Great Completion stage, he was no match for the one controlling the five flying swords.

Lin Haoming could see that the five flying swords were a set of high-grade magical tools, very powerful. However, using them was extremely draining on one’s mana, but the person seemed unconcerned about running out and was fully driving the flying swords to slash at his opponent.

The fellow disciple was barely holding on with a high-grade magical tool shield, and from his appearance, it seemed he was waiting for the other’s mana to run out so he could counterattack. However, from his expression, it was clear he had little hope.

After observing for a while, Lin Haoming quietly moved behind the flying sword user, who he assumed was a Heavenly Sword Mountain disciple, and took out the flying scissor magical tool he had taken from Li沧.

However, just as he was about to attack, the Heavenly Sword Mountain disciple suddenly turned and threw a talisman. A flash of light, and a fire snake emerged from the talisman, charging at him.

Lin Haoming immediately summoned the silver steel shield and slapped a medium-grade Adamantine Talisman onto himself.

Even so, when the fire snake hit the silver steel shield, the shield was shaken out of control, and the Adamantine Talisman’s protective light flickered uncertainly.

"I knew you were going to sneak attack. Didn’t expect you to have some skills!" Seeing Lin Haoming block his talisman, the person casually pointed at the five flying swords, and two of them instantly flew to Lin Haoming, slashing from both sides.

Lin Haoming immediately tapped his storage bag again, summoning the turtle shell shield to barely protect himself.

However, after the two slashes, the remaining force also drained the Adamantine Talisman’s power, showing the immense power of each slash.

"Senior Brother, don’t be afraid, Senior Sister Xie is here, you’ll be fine!" Seeing he was no match for the opponent, Lin Haoming immediately shouted.

Hearing Lin Haoming’s shout, the person’s spirits were immediately lifted. At the same time, Lin Haoming noticed that his Virtue Pearl suddenly reacted strongly, clearly showing the gratitude of the fellow disciple for saving his life.

This discovery delighted Lin Haoming, but after he spoke, the Heavenly Sword Mountain disciple’s gaze turned cold, and he pointed at another flying sword, which immediately attacked Lin Haoming.

Dealing with two flying swords was already his limit; dealing with three would be a matter of life and death.

Lin Haoming didn’t hesitate, immediately taking out the stone armor talisman Xie Ruolan had given him to activate. However, at that moment, the man’s expression suddenly changed, and the five flying swords that had been attacking both of them were instantly recalled. He then threw a talisman in front of him, and instantly, hundreds of thick ice spikes appeared, shooting in one direction.

At the same time, the air in the direction of the ice spikes shimmered, and a graceful figure in a cloak appeared—it was none other than Xie Ruolan!

"Senior Sister Xie, you really came!" The fellow disciple was delighted to see Xie Ruolan.

However, Xie Ruolan’s expression was not good, and she glared at Lin Haoming, angry, "What are you shouting for? If you hadn’t shouted, I would have already succeeded!"

Lin Haoming, feeling extremely wronged, said, "Senior Sister, if you hadn’t appeared, I would have been killed."

"You, demoness, have some beauty. If you’re willing to leave the demon sect and be my concubine, I can give you a life of luxury!" The Heavenly Sword Mountain disciple, seeing Xie Ruolan’s beauty, was also stunned.

Xie Ruolan coldly laughed, "You, of all people?"

As she spoke, she put away her cloak, tapped her storage bag, and a small black banner appeared in her hand. She threw it, and the banner instantly grew to several zhang tall, releasing a surge of yin energy and a bone-chilling howl of ghosts and wolves.
