I'm A Late Bloomer And I'm Immortal.

Chapter 46 048: Independent Cultivator Independent Cultivator, scattered and scattered

‘Business’ A tense night passed.

There was a fish-belly white color on the horizon, and gradually the fish-belly white color turned into light red, like a blush on the face of a person who had drunk a little wine.

When the sun shone into the cracks in the mountains, Chen Dengming felt inexplicably relaxed.

I just felt that this night was indeed long enough, and it was the most difficult night he had ever experienced in the Immortal Cultivation World.

There was a 'gurgling' sound coming from his stomach, and he was hungry. The blood centipede Gu and golden silkworm Gu that had been accompanying him all night were obviously hungry, and they hummed.

Chen Dengming took out some dried monster meat that he purchased and fed the two Gu.

Seeing these two big killers who were as connected to him as blood, and now bumping around with him, I just felt a sense of self-mockery.

I thought that with my own methods, not to mention turning my hands into clouds and rain, at least after taking advantage of the situation several times and adding the Gu refining technique, I would gradually be able to gain a firm foothold, become bigger and stronger, and slowly rise.

As a result, before Mr. Chen's name was even popular, and before he received his second share of the Gu market, he was once again forced to leave the gathering place and became homeless.

"Independent Cultivator, Independent Cultivator, isn't this the Independent Cultivator? A small group that has no fixed place and is wandering around."

Chen Dengming laughed and looked at it openly.

At least he still has a lot of savings now, and is about to break through to the fourth level of Qi Refining.

He took out some spiritual rice, cooked it and ate it.

Then he took out the luggage hidden in the mountain crevice, put on a human skin mask and a bamboo hat, and carefully walked out of the mountain crevice, preparing to take a look at the gathering place from a distance before looking for Jiang Qiang.

The opponent's formations are of great use to him, and in today's environment, areas where the opponent's formations are deployed are safer.

When he reached a river, he saw two bodies.

Wrapped in a strange spider-like slime, it was corroded into shape and was very cruel.

He didn't dare to get too close, fearing that it was a trap set by the monster.

Another walk.

He saw half of the female body floating on the river.

There is no clothes to wrap around the body, and the other half has gone somewhere long ago. It may be the poor person from last night.

Chen Dengming frowned, and after seeing more, this cruelty made him feel slightly uncomfortable, and he quickened his pace to leave.

After that, Chen Dengming met many people one after another along the way.

There are mortals walking together in groups, and there are also monks.

Almost all of them are very wary of strangers they encounter.

There was a woman holding a child in her arms and crying bitterly in front of the body.

There were also monks who cremated the corpses of their companions silently.

It can be seen that the expressions on the faces of many mortals are full of confusion and hesitation. From time to time, they will look back at the gathering place. Some people are also walking back, not daring to stay outside the gathering place.

Someone is calming down after last night's excitement.

I feel that it is safer in the gathering place. After all, there are no monsters to invade.

Even if there is a war between monks from multiple forces, it is impossible for them to fight every day.

After the fight last night, it should be much safer now.

But those who make such decisions are mostly mortals.

After many monks left the gathering place, they planned to wait and see the situation for a short time.

They have a certain ability to protect themselves, and they have all received news that there is likely to be a war between the Luo family and the Zhu family.

The big battle at the gathering place last night might have been just the appetizer.

Once the two major cultivating families start a war, every Independent Cultivator in the gathering area will be counted as one, and those who run slowly will be cannon fodder.

"This Fellow Daoist is going out to seek refuge? Why don't you join us and hold a group together? There were monsters in the wild last night. It will be much safer if we stay together."

Walking to the foot of a hillside not far from the gathering place, Chen Dengming was observing the situation of the gathering place in the distance.

A middle-aged monk approached and stopped ten feet away, smiling and clasping his fists under Chen Dengming's alert gaze.

Chen Dengming glanced at the three monks standing not far away, who seemed to be the companions of the middle-aged monk, and one of them was a familiar face.

He thought about it for a moment and remembered that the familiar face should be a monk from the Merchant Alliance. He had seen him beside Master Hu before, but he didn't expect that he would also run out now.

"No! I like to be alone!"

Chen Dengming refused with fists in his hands.

The middle-aged monk was startled, then said nothing, nodded with a smile, and turned to leave.

When the three people in the distance saw this, they talked quietly. They looked at Chen Dengming with a bit of ridicule, obviously regarding him as a little idiot who had a high self-esteem.

Chen Dengming didn't want to cause trouble. After observing the gathering place, he quickly left.

On the surface, the gathering place was temporarily peaceful after a big battle last night.

But he didn't know the details of how many people died last night, which force took advantage, and why the war started.

I don’t know, sometimes it’s also a kind of happiness.

At the very least, it's painful to have someone who knows the news inside and out at this moment.

Because he knows too much and has been involved in too much, he is now deeply stuck in the quagmire, and it is difficult to get out.

At this time, he was in a relatively dark room, and his heart was already darker than the room, full of irritation and struggle.

An indifferent and cold voice came from behind him.

"Xu Ning, there is no turning back for you. It won't be long before the Luo family will be too busy to take care of themselves. From then on, the resources of this land will be under the control of our Zhu family. If you work for our Zhu family honestly, you will still have a voice. Eat.”

Xu Ning raised his head from the darkness. His image at this time was much more haggard and embarrassed than when he was full of energy. His eyes were covered with red veins and there were deep bags under his eyes, as if he hadn't had a good rest for more than ten days in a row.

His voice was hoarse and he said, "I am just a monk at the sixth level of Qi Refining. There are too many monks like me in the Zhu family, so why do you value me so much?"

"Hehehe——"

The man behind him chuckled and said, "You don't need to belittle yourself, there are many people with your level of strength in our Zhu family, but not too many. Everyone is valuable.

People who are valuable in gold should do things that are valuable in gold. Porcelain and earthenware pots will not touch each other.

Your value is just like now, helping us do less expensive things in a gathering place of Independent Cultivators."

Xu Ning closed his eyes tiredly and said, "The Luo family will not let me go. I just hope what you said is right."

“Of course what we said is not wrong, otherwise we would not declare war so brazenly.

Xu Ning, put away your little cleverness. I once asked you for the boy who knew how to refine Gu, but you went against the plan and tried to lure him to Jinxiufang. On the way, you ordered someone to interrogate him about his Gu skills. .

All I can say is that you are too naive.

Since you are worried about Luo Bing and don't dare to kill him, do you still expect to force him to reveal the Gu refining technique by intimidation? You expect to have both sides, between our Zhu family and the Luo family, is this possible? "

Xu Ning frowned, "I have helped you later and handed him over to you. It was the people you sent who failed to catch him."

"Why--"

A sigh came from behind, and footsteps gradually walked away, saying.

"That's right, so you are still alive now because you have taken a stand, but it's a pity that those losers are so useless that they didn't even catch a kid with the third level of Qi Refining.

Forget it, there is one more thing you have to do together with Lin Hu. Qian Yuan from Hutong Street has escaped.

Catch him, kill him, hang his body up and hang it outside the gathering place. This is our Zhu family’s declaration to all Independent Cultivators! "

ruthless! Too cruel!

Xu Ning clenched his fists, but knew that he had no choice but to do this.

Once he, a former member of the Luo family, killed Qian Yuan, who was also a member of the Luo family, he would be completely on the Zhu family's boat.

At the same time, Qian Yuan's death was the Zhu family's biggest challenge to the Luo family's bottom line.

If the Luo family can't bear it, then the two immortal cultivating families will start a war.

If the Luo family endures it, from now on the gathering place, including many surrounding resource points, will be completely owned by the Zhu family.

Xu Ning collapsed on the ground, covered in cold sweat.

He had always only traded some women and made small transactions with the Zhu family, and never dared to have too deep social relationships.

Unexpectedly, due to a moment of confusion, I can't turn back at all.

Because he was greedy for the power in his hands and the hard-earned wealth, he was unable to withdraw from this whirlpool.

Where is Chen Dengming? Chen Dengming shouldn't be able to escape, right?

The group of monks from Tielin Hall said they had wounded him, but he had a chance to escape.

An injured third-level Qi Refining monk, in today's chaotic wilderness, would die not only by the black hands of the monks, but also by the mouths of monsters.

Thinking of this, Xu Ning felt that the pain and gap in his heart suddenly felt much better. He could not escape, and Chen Dengming's death would not count as escape...
