I Just Want To Slack off In Cultivation - Chapter 35
Chapter 35: Sachet
“Thank you, Senior Brother Huang,” Pei Ling replied calmly.
As he spoke, Pei Ling turned around and headed for his room.
Watching Pei Ling return to his room, Huang Xian suddenly spoke, “Junior Sister Chen, did you hear what this brat said just now?”
Chen Mei walked out from the shadows of the bushes. The moonlight shone on her face, illuminating her cold expression. “I’ll get the Tracking Bee to find it!”
Not long after, the sachet that Pei Ling had deliberately thrown into the bamboo forest was discovered by the two of them.
“We did pass by here during the day when we returned,” said Chen Mei.
Huang Xian sized it up a few times and found that it was only an ordinary sachet used by mortals, so he did not put much thought into it. He said lightly, “He didn’t bring a weapon when he went out. It seems that he was only finding something. I’ll give it back to him tomorrow.”
“Okay!”
…
Meanwhile, in the small building.
Pei Ling frowned. He had many preparations in advance, and meeting Huang Xian just now was expected.
Since Chen Huan and the others wanted to harm him, they would definitely send someone to monitor him.
However, that was not the most important thing right now. He had not managed to contact Wu Liu!
“This is going to be troublesome!”
“If Wu Liu isn’t here, with my cultivation level, I’m no match against Chen Huan, let alone against the five of them!
“Should I ask for help from City Lord Duanmu?
“No! The city lord is not related to me. He won’t help me unconditionally if he doesn’t benefit from it.
“Plus, Chen Huan and the others chose this place specifically. They must have been well-prepared for this.”
“Then… I’ll use Fairy Li’s name to deter them from touching me?”
Pei Ling thought carefully for a moment and shook his head. He could not use the name of Fairy Li unless he had no other choice.
It was because he could not be sure if Wu Liu was currently monitoring him!
If Wu Liu were to keep watch over him while he used her master’s name without permission, Wu Liu would definitely take his life at the first moment!
“There are two ways to test whether Wu Liu is here. The first is to skin Chen Mei alive, and the second is to master the Blood Spiraling Escape Technique!”
“If Wu Liu isn’t here for the first option, I’m doomed!
“To be safe, it’s better to cultivate the Blood Spiraling Escape Technique.
“But I can’t cultivate in the city!
“Otherwise, if the system continues to cause trouble, the consequences will be unimaginable!
“I have to get out of the city.
“I’ll suggest to Chen Huan tomorrow to leave the city together for the mission.
“Also, Chen Mei is the key to my survival now. I must be inseparable from her tomorrow!
“This way, even if Chen Huan decides to attack me on the way, I’ll have Chen Mei as a hostage. In fact, if Wu Liu is here, I can even lure her out with Chen Mei!”
After making up his mind, Pei Ling looked at the sky outside the window. It was already late at night. He seized the moment and fell asleep to maintain his energy level for the next day.
The next morning.
Pei Ling had just woken up and gotten dressed when there was a knock on the door.
Dong dong dong!
“Junior Brother Pei, are you up?” Chen Mei’s voice sounded from outside the door.
Hearing this, Pei Ling carried the Life-Extinguishing Blade on his back and went to open the door.
The door opened, and Chen Mei stood outside in her long skirt. Chen Huan and the rest were right behind her.
Everyone smiled when they saw Pei Ling.
Indeed, everything was in place.
They had already set up the sub-formation of the Soul-devouring Mother Array in Mount Spiral yesterday.
Today, as long as they brought Pei Ling over and locked him in the sub-formation, then set up the mother formation, he could sit and wait for the Soul Summoning Banner to be completely refined!
The lad in front of them was simply too silly and adorable and did not realize anything wrong.
Then next, they only needed to keep up the guise of friendly disciples to deceive Pei Ling and lure him into the sub-formation step by step.
It would not only save them trouble but also ensure that the most important offering at the moment was intact in all aspects!
At the thought of this, the smile on Chen Huan’s face widened. He casually stuffed the sachet Huang Xian found last night into Pei Ling’s hand and said, “Junior Brother Pei, today, we…”
Before he could finish, Pei Ling had already walked to Chen Mei’s side and pulled her into his embrace in front of her brother.
Chen Huan’s expression stiffened. Chen Mei instinctively wanted to struggle, but she was afraid that Pei Ling would sense something amiss. Therefore, she did not dare to move even when she was angry and embarrassed.
“Senior Brother Chen, it’s getting boring in this city. When can we go out and do missions?” Pei Ling asked as if he was already his sister’s boyfriend.
Chen Huan was furious. They had come to find Pei Ling early in the morning to find an excuse to let him enter Mount Spiral with them. It was great that Pei Ling took the initiative to mention it.
But now, Pei Ling was touching his sister in front of him and taking liberties with her. It was simply outrageous!
Noticing the change in Chen Huan’s expression, Zhang Zhongqin hurriedly sent a voice transmission to advise him, “Senior Brother Chen, he’s going to die anyway, why bother with a sacrifice?”
“That’s right, Senior Brother Chen. It’s all for the bigger picture!” Huang Xian said via voice transmission.
Chen Huan understood the severity of the matter, and he forcefully suppressed his rage while he squeezed out a smile on his face and said, “Since Junior Brother Pei wants to do the mission, then let’s leave the city now!”
A moment later, they left the city and arrived at a quiet corner. Chen Huan said to Xiao Tasha, “Thank you for your hard work, Junior Sister Xiao.”
Xiao Tasha glanced at him dotingly and said, “It’s not hard at all. Don’t worry, Senior Brother Chen. I will do my best for you.”
With that, she took out a disk array and cast a few hand seals. She shouted, “Wind rise!”
A strong wind rose from the ground, sweeping everyone up and rapidly heading for the bottom of Mount Spiral in the distance!
Pei Ling held Chen Mei tighter as the strong wind blew them into the air. He was relieved to see that Chen Huan and the others had no intention of attacking him.
As far as the eye could see, he quickly saw a patch of pink and white in the southeast corner, as if there was a dash of brilliance amidst the wild greenery. It was an extremely large flower bed…
They had received three missions this time. Their first mission was sending a letter to City Lord Duanmu, which they had already completed. The second was to kill the flower demons. The third was to deal with the sixth-stage Awakening Realm Purple-eyed Mink.
Their current mission should be killing the flower demon.
However, they headed towards the southwest, where the interweaving of different shades of green continued.
Although plants were luxuriant in that direction, they were all grass and trees.
No matter how he thought about it, it could not be the location of the flower demon.
The flower demon should be in the flower forest in the southeast corner. The place Chen Huan and the others are bringing me to is probably Mount Spiral…
It seems that they have prepared to attack me too. I must be one step ahead!
Pei Ling thought while maintaining his composure.
After a while, everyone descended from the fierce wind. They had already reached the dense forest at the foot of Mount Spiral.
However, casting the spell just now had exhausted Xiao Tasha. Her face turned pale, and she was on the verge of collapse. She could not even speak at the moment.
Chen Huan hurriedly stepped forward to hold her and ask about her well-being. He then said, “In a while, I’ll need you to do the job. I’ll get Huang Xian to carry you on his back first.”
Xiao Tasha was not too happy to hear that. She looked at Chen Huan frequently. It became clear that she hoped that Chen Huan would carry her himself.
However, after Chen Huan explained the complicated situation in the forest in a low voice, Xiao Tasha reluctantly agreed. After all, Chen Huan was the most powerful person on the team, and he had to keep an eye on the team at all times.
Pei Ling narrowed his eyes. Xiao Tasha seemed to be a crucial part of this team.. In other words, as long as she had not recovered, he would be fine!
