Mortal Bones

"What you said does make sense."

Bai Yu put away the displeasure in his eyes and nodded in agreement.

"But if I take you with me, you have to give me ten merit coins. Don't get me wrong, it's not that I'm stingy, this is the precept of Qingxuan Sect. When the spirit bird carries people, it must collect merit coins, otherwise it will be punished by the oath."

It then looked at Xu Taiping again.

"No problem, I have merit coins!"

Xu Taiping smiled and raised the bag of merit coins in his hand.

This was the bag of merit coins that Liu Zijin had just given him.

"Then get ready quickly, I'll take you with me, and then we'll hunt a few more."

Seeing Xu Taiping so straightforward, Bai Yu's words were no longer as arrogant as before, and his tone became much closer.

"Okay!"

Xu Taiping nodded vigorously.

"By the way, where are you going to hunt yellow sheep?"

Just as Xu Taiping was about to go back to the house to prepare, Bai Yu suddenly asked another question.

"Qingfeng Gorge!"

Xu Taiping turned around and answered.

"Qingfeng Gorge? It's at least 400 miles away from here. Why go so far?"

Bai Yu tilted his head, his big eyes full of confusion.

"Because the yellow sheep in Qingfeng Gorge are the most delicious!"

Xu Taiping replied with a smile.

When he heard this, the confusion in Bai Yu's eyes suddenly disappeared, and turned into excitement:

"Then let's go to Qingfeng Gorge!"

...

Qingfeng Gorge, Baima Slope.

"Lu Chen, Zijin, why did you two take so long?"

A young man wearing the robe of a Qingxuan Sect disciple looked coldly at Lu Chen and Zijin who had just dismounted.

The young man had a long face, narrow eyes, a tall and thin body, and a cold air between his eyebrows.

"I'm sorry, senior brother, we..."

"Senior brother, Junior Sister Zijin's horse is a little uncomfortable, so we are a little late."

Lu Chen lied to the young man.

The young man he called the senior disciple was Mo Jun, the senior disciple of the fifth peak of Qingxuan Sect and the same generation as Lu Chen. His cultivation was outstanding among his peers.

"Is that true?"

Mo Jun looked at Liu Zijin with cold eyes.

"Yes, senior brother."

Although Liu Zijin felt that there was no need to lie about finding her sister, since Lu Chen said so, she couldn't expose him.

"Junior brother Mo Jun, since the two junior brothers are here, let's set off."

Just then, a woman riding on a spirit horse not far away shouted to Mo Jun and the others.

Beside the woman was a girl in white riding on a white spirit horse.

Although both of them had veils on their faces, even so, it was still difficult to hide their stunning looks.

"Junior brother, who are these two?"

Lu Chen was almost stunned.

"That's Senior Sister Zi Yan from the Sixth Peak and Junior Sister Buyu who just entered the sect. I happened to meet her bringing Junior Sister Buyu to Qingfeng Gorge for training. It's easy to kill the demon tiger, but it's not that easy to capture it alive as a mount, so I asked her to go with me."

As Mo Jun climbed onto the horse, he introduced it to Lu Chen with a cold face.

"With Senior Sister Zi Yan's help, you, Senior Brother, will definitely be able to capture the demon tiger as a mount this time."

Lu Chen said flatteringly with a smile on his face.

Mo Jun glanced at Lu Chen coldly, then turned his gaze to Liu Zijin and said:

"Zijin, when we get to Qingfeng Gorge, you and the little junior sister Buyu from the Sixth Peak can just watch from the sidelines, and don't get involved in the hunting of the tiger monster."

"Can the senior brother..."

"Junior sister, just listen to the senior brother, and wait until the tiger monster is captured before we talk about it."

Liu Zijin couldn't help but want to ask the senior brother to help ask the tiger monster if he had seen her sister, but she was interrupted by Lu Chen who was standing beside her.

"Yes."

Liu Zijin finally nodded.

"Then let's go, let's go to Qingfeng Gorge together."

Mo Jun threw down a sentence, clamped his legs on the horse's back, and then rushed out like the wind.

The horses under the group were all spirit horses, running in the mountains as fast as the wind, and in just a moment they arrived at the Qingfeng Gorge that never sees the sun all year round.

...

Qingfeng Gorge, red maple forest

"The tiger monster cave is deep in this maple forest. Senior Sister Zi Yan and I will hide first. After you get my voice transmission, Lu Chen, go and lure the tiger monster to the ambush position of Senior Sister Zi Yan and I."

In a red maple forest, Mo Jun explained to Lu Chen with a serious face.

"What about me, senior brother?"

Liu Zijin asked Mo Jun with a somewhat anxious tone.

She really wanted to go to the tiger monster cave to see if her sister was caught by the tiger monster and taken into the cave.

"Zijin, you and Junior Sister Buyu stay here and don't go anywhere. When the three of us lead the tiger monster out, you two can go forward to help as appropriate."

Mo Jun looked at Liu Zijin with a serious face.

"Sister Zijin, please take care of our Buyu. She has only been a disciple for half a year, and this is her first time to officially contact a monster."

Liu Zijin was about to fight for it, but Senior Sister Zi Yan suddenly took Buyu to her and asked her sincerely.

"Buyu greets Senior Sister Zijin."

Buyu greeted Liu Zijin indifferently.

"Well, Senior Sister Ziyan, don't worry, I will take good care of Miss Buyu."

Liu Zijin finally gave up the idea of ​​going with Lu Chen to seduce the tiger monster, took Buyu's hand, and stood side by side with him.

"Hoo!..."

Just then, a mountain breeze blew, and Buyu's veil was lifted by the wind, revealing her almost flawless face.

Not only Lu Chen, but also Liu Zijin beside him was stunned for a moment.

This Buyu seemed to have long been accustomed to the gazes around him. He just raised his head silently, looking through the gaps between the branches and leaves of the tree at a giant eagle hovering in the sky above his head.

…

The sky above Qingfeng Gorge.

At this time, Xu Taiping was holding Bai Yu's neck and flying high in the sky, and then looking down at the forest below from the sky.

"Xu Taiping, there are only a few disciples of Qingxuan Sect below, where are the yellow sheep?"

Bai Yu, who was also looking down at the bottom, said a little unhappy at this time.

"Brother Bai Yu, can you see the situation in the forest below?"

Xu Taiping retracted his gaze and looked at Bai Yu with surprise.

He had just looked down for a long time, but he only vaguely saw a few figures, and this was the result of his vision improvement after breaking through the sea realm.

"Of course!"

Hearing Xu Taiping's shocked tone, Bai Yu was very proud.

"The eyesight of the bald eagle clan is so terrifying?"

Xu Taiping's tone was full of surprise and admiration.

"Our bald eagle clan's eyesight is also the best among the spirit beasts. Not to mention a few people that big, even a few ants can be seen clearly."

Hearing Xu Taiping's praise, Bai Yu immediately put the matter of looking for the yellow sheep behind his mind.

"Then Brother Bai Yu, can you help me see if there is a girl wearing emerald green among the disciples below?"

Xu Taiping asked immediately.

"There is indeed a girl wearing green."

Bai Yu, who was very happy to be praised by Xu Taiping, immediately glanced down.

"But the other girl next to her seems to be more beautiful."

It then added another sentence.
