The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 024

Chapter 024 Hunting Activities (2)
Li Qing and Liu Ke’er formed a team together and were walking towards the depths of the forest.

Chen Jun also took part in this activity. When he saw Liu Ke’er, his eyes lit up. He immediately walked over and blocked the way.

Behind him, there were also several young men around the age of twenty. Each of them was full of vitality and extraordinary aura. As they raised their hands and feet, a brilliant light flowed around, revealing an extremely deep level of cultivation.

As the saying goes, people are divided into groups. Evidently, these people were similar to Chen Jun. They were all geniuses from Flaming Sun Peak and had extraordinary status. They were either the descendants of the elders or the clansmen of the Dharma Protectors.

“What are you stopping us for?” Liu Ke’er was unhappy and raised her eyebrows.

“Miss Ke’er, we meet again.” Chen Jun appeared polite and said gently, “The mountain is very dangerous. How about we form a team together? That way, I can protect you.”

“Just you? You can’t even defeat me, yet you dare to say you want to protect me?” Liu Ke’er was not polite at all, her face full of contempt.

Chen Jun’s expression stiffened, but he wasn’t angry. He was very patient and said with a smile, “There are many people on our side. Everyone is very strong. At least in this mountain range, it shouldn’t be a problem to protect you.”

“Yes, Miss Ke’er.” A very handsome young man next to him echoed. He looked at Liu Ke’er with a burning gaze and licked his lips. “With so many of us, we are much better than the person who ate the soft rice behind you, right?” He said.

“Who do you think eats soft rice?” Li Qing’s anger surged. These people were simply like flies, disgusting.

“You want a woman to protect you, don’t you?” That person laughed coldly and continued to mock, “You only became Elder Liu’s disciple by relying on a woman. Otherwise, how could a dignified Elder like you fall in love with someone like you?”

“Yes, don’t think that becoming Elder Liu’s disciple is arrogant. You have to recognize the reality clearly,” the people behind echoed.

“Holy shit!” Li Qing was furious. His personality was very impulsive. He clenched his fists and was about to rush over to teach them a lesson, but Liu Ke’er stopped him.

These people deliberately wanted to provoke Li Qing. If they really made a move, he would be at a disadvantage if he were to fight against the crowd. Therefore, she calmly stopped him.

“Fuck off!” Liu Ke’er immediately turned hostile and said very impolitely, “Who are you? Compared to Li Qing, you are not even worthy to carry your shoes. With the shadow of your father’s generation, you can pull the heavens one by one. How great do you really think you are?”

“You! How can you talk to us like this?” These people were furious, their blood energy surging, their faces turning purple with anger. They were not angry in their hearts, but they couldn’t help but feel extremely aggrieved.

“What, do you still dare to hit me?” Liu Ke’er sneered.

Chen Jun said calmly, “Miss Ke’er, we also have good intentions. The mountain is too dangerous. Li Qing can’t protect you at all. I’m afraid you will have to suffer a lot on this trip. Since you don’t appreciate it, we won’t force you. When you regret it, you will naturally come back and beg us.”

With a proud expression, he waved his hand and said, “Let’s go.” Everyone left.

The mountains and forests here were extremely lush, and the trees were extremely huge. They covered the sky and covered the sun. They were dark and deep.

They hadn’t gone far when a strange change suddenly appeared and a terrifying poisonous snake emerged from the forest! .

This was a giant black snake. It was very hidden in the dark forest. It had lurked for a long time, perfectly fusing with its surroundings. No one had noticed it beforehand.

“Pu!”

The terrifying poisonous snake opened its huge mouth and spat out a multicolored mist, covering the group of people inside. These people were caught off guard and panicked.

“Not good, quickly retreat!” Chen Jun shouted and everyone retreated.

‘”Ah—” Someone was struck, screaming loudly.

The mist dissipated. The disciple who had been struck by the attack was still alive. His entire body was festering, and white bones could be faintly seen. There was also a lot of yellow liquid dripping down. The surrounding vegetation withered along with it. It looked extremely terrifying.

“Kill me!” This person screamed miserably. He was in great pain, and was wholeheartedly begging for death.

He rolled all over the ground and struggled for a while, but he did not move at all. It seemed that he was out of breath.

Everyone’s hair stood on end as they quickly retreated. It was too terrifying. Those who were still alive just now died in the blink of an eye. The danger here was beyond their expectations. If he wasn’t careful, he would really lose his life.

“Whoosh!” A figure appeared on the spot. It turned out to be Elder Liu. After hearing the miserable scream, he hurriedly rushed over.

“What’s going on?” His expression was very ugly. He was both shocked and angry that a person had died so quickly.

He glanced at the corpse on the ground and the giant snake coiled in the tree. He asked, “How did an Intermediate Demonic Beast Poisonous Snake frighten you to such an extent that a person actually died?”

He couldn’t understand why an Intermediate Viper would easily kill a powerful inner sect disciple. Even if they only circulated the true energy in their bodies, it would be very difficult for these poisonous gases to break through their defenses. How could they possibly be poisoned to death?

The only possibility was that they didn’t even operate their True Qi defense! He had underestimated his enemy carelessly and had no vigilance at all. When he encountered danger, he would be in a state of chaos and lose his life.

“This” Chen Jun and the others felt very embarrassed. They had just boasted in front of Liu Ke’er and swore to protect her. Now, someone had died on their side. The change was simply too fast.

“Actually, we were attacked as well, but we managed to escape smoothly. Only he didn’t know why he was hit …” Someone said, shifting the blame onto the deceased.

“Who’s going to kill this demonic snake? What’s there to fear from an intermediate demonic beast?” Elder Liu was very angry and pointed.

“I’ll go.” Chen Jun took the initiative to stand out and circulate his True Qi. His entire body emitted a blurry green light to protect himself.

He rushed forward, his speed extremely fast. With a single slash, he easily sliced the poisonous snake in half, neatly and cleanly.

…

Liu Ke’er stood not far away. Seeing that a person had died, her death was terrifying. She felt very scared in her heart and couldn’t help but stretch out her hand to pull Li Qing’s arm.

However, when she thought about how these people had just spoken rudely and flaunted their might in front of Li Qing, but now, someone had died in the blink of an eye, she wanted to laugh in her heart.

“Retaliation came so quickly!” She muttered softly.

Li Qing looked at her and said, “Do you know how scared she is this time?”

Her eyes widened, and the dead duck’s mouth hardened, “I’m not afraid!”

Li Qing’s face turned grim and he said seriously, “Regardless of whether you’re afraid or not, you should know the danger, right? Do you still dare to be so careless? You also saw that if you’re not careful, you’ll lose your life. Don’t make any more nonsense this time.”

“Mm. I don’t dare to mess around anymore. I’ll listen to you.” She had an obedient expression on her face.

“Let’s go.” Li Qing saw that everything here had been settled and there was nothing to see, so he took Liu Ke’er to another direction.

…

The dark mountain forest was very quiet. The deeper one went, the more luxuriant the trees became, the darker and humid they were. The faint sunlight shone in, forming pillars of light that looked beautiful and mysterious.

“Creak–creak–”

This was the sound of feet stepping on fallen leaves. Although the sound wasn’t loud, it was especially obvious in the silent forest.

Li Qing noticed that Liu Ke’er seemed to be a little nervous. He looked around as if he was worried that the demonic beast would suddenly come out of the forest and attack.

“Don’t worry, I’m here.” Li Qing smiled, looking very relaxed.

This smile gave Liu Ke’er a sense of security, as if her surroundings weren’t as terrifying anymore. She nodded heavily and slowly relaxed.

Li Qing gathered his courage and suddenly stretched out his hand to grab Liu Ke’er’s small white hand.

She was stunned, her face flushed red, but she did not break free, just like that, she let Li Qing hold her tightly. The two of them held hands and slowly walked forward. If someone who didn’t know saw it, they would think that it was a couple who came to visit the mountains and rivers.

“Wait!” Li Qing suddenly stopped because the Heavenly Saber suddenly vibrated and issued a warning.

“What’s the matter?” Liu Ke’er looked at him.

“I feel danger ahead.” Li Qing let go of her little hand. Although he was reluctant to part with her, if he still held onto her hand in the face of danger, he would simply be courting death.

He stood in front of Liu Ke’er and stared vigilantly in front of her.

“No, are you mistaken?” Liu Ke’er was puzzled.

Just as he finished speaking, a colorful spider suddenly jumped out from the grass not far away. It looked very disgusting, and one could tell that it was a poisonous creature.

‘”Ah–” Liu Ke’er was startled and screamed.

The spider opened its mouth and spat out a huge web of green liquid. This web covered a large area in front of it and it was very difficult to dodge.

“High-grade demonic beast, Five Poison Spider.” Li Qing recognized this demonic beast. This kind of demonic beast mainly relied on poison, and its own strength wasn’t too strong.

With a wave of his hand, the True Qi in his palm suddenly erupted, and a gust of wind blew the poison web away. At the same time, he also pulled Liu Ke’er behind him and quickly retreated, dodging this attack.

“Run your zhenqi to protect yourself from the poison.” Li Qing instructed in a low voice.

After the initial panic, Liu Ke’er quickly regained her composure. She circulated all of her True Qi, pulled out her sword, and stood ready.

Li Qing was very calm from beginning to end, without the slightest bit of fear. After recognizing the demonic beast, he knew its weakness. Its body was very weak, and as long as it could get close to it, it could be easily killed.

He instantly came up with a solution. He took out a flying spear several feet long from his interspatial ring. The spear was polished from the toughest demonic beast bones-this was the spear he hadn’t used up in the past. Obviously, he wanted to use a long-range attack to kill this demonic beast.

Speaking of which, it was too late. He stepped forward, bent his knees, raised his spear backwards, stretched his body, and threw it abruptly!

The spear turned into an afterimage and flew dozens of meters away like lightning, piercing through the Five Poison Spider’s body.

The spider struggled a few times and soon died.

“I haven’t used it for many years. I didn’t expect that this spear throwing technique hasn’t retreated.” He sighed in his heart. As his strength increased, this unique technique that he had painstakingly practiced for several years had gradually lost its usefulness. Now that he picked up the spear again, the familiar feeling returned.

“So great!” Liu Ke’er cheered, her face flushed red with excitement. “This is a high-grade demonic beast. I didn’t expect that you would kill it so easily. It’s amazing. If Chen Jun and the others knew about it, let’s see if they dare to underestimate you.”

Li Qing said with a stiff face, “You did not pass the test just now. If it weren’t for my presence, you would be dead.”

Liu Ke’er blushed and stuck out her tongue, saying slyly, “This spider is too ugly. I was scared by its appearance.”

“You!” Li Qing lightly tapped her forehead and was defeated by her adorable appearance.
