Longevity Begins From Raising Disciples

Chapter 798: Chapter 383: Battling the Eighth Layer of Foundation Establishment, Seizing the Third Tier Spirit Fruit

After saying goodbye to Zhong Jinliu and the others,

Su Qingdai finally let out a sigh of relief.

"Phew... that was close, at least my dignity was intact, and he didn’t find out." She patted her chest, muttering to herself.

"Su, are you really afraid of that big fat sheep?"

Qing Jun peeked over, her small head full of curiosity as she looked at Su Qingdai,

"He doesn’t look powerful at all, and aren’t you more famous than him? Qing Jun has never heard of Zhong Jinliu before, but has heard of Su! Su is a renowned Spiritual Chef in Yan Kingdom! Qing Jun has seen Su in several gourmet books!"

Su Qingdai never expected this girl to know her in this way.

Oh... this little girl sure loves food, she must have read quite a few cookbooks. It’s impossible she’s reading them to learn cooking with such laziness, isn’t it? She must be drooling over the illustrations...

She let out a bitter smile, lowered her voice, and intentionally startled the three little girls:

"I’m saying this for your good! Precisely because this person is extremely low-key, he becomes terrifying! Judging by his cultivation, he has reached the sixth layer of Foundation Establishment, tch, Zhong Jinliu seems amicable and unambitious, but he’s been quietly hiding his strength."

"Moreover, with his personality, if he discovers I’ve been captured by you three, he will definitely help, and then you’ll be in trouble!"

"Help out?"

Zhiwei, dressed all in white, turned around and calmly stroked the sheath of the Canchen Sword:

"Zhong Jinliu is shrewd; with your nervous demeanor just now, he likely saw through it. But he weighed the pros and cons, deciding that it wasn’t worth it to clash with us over you, so he went along pretending not to know. Or perhaps... in his heart, our importance is greater than yours."

"He... he actually saw through but pretended to be oblivious?!"

Su Qingdai was deeply affected, her eyes reddened with sadness.

To think she, a proud daughter from Medicine King Valley, weighs less in the eyes of Zhong Jinliu, a True Inheritor of the Five Sects, than these three little girls?

Even to the extent of not bothering to save her!

"Hmph! That’s obvious!"

Qing Jun raised her little head with pride, placing her hands on her hips, even the tuft of hair atop her head swayed confidently:

"That big fat sheep is a smart one! My master said if you can’t beat them, just run; when facing strong opponents, take a detour. That’s the survival wisdom of the Cultivation Realm! He must’ve seen that Qing Jun could crush his golden ring with a punch, so he ran off scared!"

"..."

Seeing the little girl’s triumphant display, Su Qingdai was momentarily speechless.

Why is she so confident despite being so tiny?

She rubbed her eyes, suddenly turned serious:

"However, you also need to be wary of this person. He intentionally dodged the topic and didn’t explain why he’s with people from the Formless Ghost Collection... you must know, it’s rare for the Formless Ghost Collection to interact with Yan and Qi sects."

"Hmm..."

Zhiwei nodded slightly, her eyes clear, acknowledging Su Qingdai’s reminder:

"Taoist Su is right. This person is deeply calculating, friend or foe is hard to discern. If we encounter him again in the future, we definitely need to be on guard. However... Taoist Su should lead the way quickly, the situation is uncertain now, and we should acquire the Dragon Blood Bodhi as soon as possible."

Su Qingdai sighed, resignedly pointed in the direction of the south, her expression heavy:

"The place we need to go is called Ni Lin Blood Waterfall."

"Ni Lin Blood Waterfall?"

Qing Jun uttered the name, sensing a chill:

"What a strange name. Ni Lin wouldn’t be the reverse scale of a dragon, would it? It’s all dragon blood bodhi and Ni Lin Blood Waterfall... who are we provoking..."

Could my master also be this kind of person? Thinking that everything related to dragons is prestigious.

For example, calling her bathwater Dragon Pool, as if bathing in it would strengthen her body;

Or referring to her lost teeth as dragon teeth, contemplating refining the mythical Dragon Tooth Sword...

Come to think of it, that’s not so bad.

It shows how precious she is to her master.

"This..."

Su Qingdai’s expression stiffened, as she saw the girl’s indignant look, cautiously explaining:

"Little Sister Qing Jun, this Ni Lin Blood Waterfall... is only related to dragon kind, precisely the Jiao Dragon that Songyang Sect slaughtered. The expert from Songyang Sect forcibly ripped open its hardened reverse scale, pinning it on the cliff. The essence blood spurted out, hanging down, watering that exotic bodhi tree. Hence it’s called Ni Lin Blood Waterfall."

Upon hearing this, Qing Jun clenched her little fist, audibly "cracking":

"That’s so cruel! So wicked! Pulling out its scales, using its blood to grow a tree!"

The little girl was filled with righteousness, her eyes blazing with anger.

Su Qingdai swallowed her saliva, wondering if this ancestor would give up this opportunity in anger?

"Therefore! Qing Jun must devour the Dragon Blood Bodhi completely! Not a single bit left for those villains! Qing Jun is avenging that unlucky Jiao Dragon!"

Qing Jun widened her eyes, furiously adding.

Su Qingdai: "..."

I should never have held any unrealistic hope for this little monster’s empathy.

"Let’s go."

Zhiwei looked at her martial sister’s righteous foodie demeanor and smiled slightly,

"Since it’s a great medicine that can aid Qing Jun’s cultivation, there’s no reason to miss it. Taoist Su, please lead the way."

...

The four plunged into the vast mountains.

No knowing how long they’ve traveled.

The Demon Beasts’ numbers around them increased, occasionally, even having Golden Core-level pressure sweeping by.

In contrast, the nearby Cultivators’ numbers were near non-existent.

"No wonder that previous place had a lot of Cultivators... turns out, that place nearby is relatively safe."
