The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 031

Chapter 031 Suffer Another Calamity
“It’s finally over” Li Qing looked up at the sky and murmured, revealing his sincere joy.

He collapsed to the ground, his entire body relaxed like never before. This period of experience felt like a circle in front of a ghost gate. It was truly too thrilling. Right now, he felt as if he was in another life.

He was severely injured and hurriedly took a pill to relieve his injuries. He felt better.

After a while.

“Li Qing–” Liu Ke’er’s voice came from afar and she came back.

“Here.” He waved his hand and shouted weakly.

She hurriedly ran forward and saw his appearance. She asked with concern, “Are you injured? Is he serious?”

“It’s fine. I suffered some internal injuries. I can’t die.”

Liu Ke’er then saw the corpse on the ground and was shocked, “Is this … is this Xu Hao Yang’s corpse? Is he dead?”

“Yes, I killed him.”

“Great, this guy is finally dead.” She cheered and smiled happily.

Li Qing couldn’t help but smile and said, “Go take off his spatial ring and see what’s inside.”

Liu Ke’er walked over and took off a black ring from Xu Hao Yang’s finger. Perhaps this included all the wealth of a Xiantian expert.

She endured her curiosity and handed the ring to Li Qing. Li Qing picked it up and began to investigate the situation inside.

“So many spirit stones!” Li Qing’s heart trembled. Inside was a pile of spirit stones that looked like a small mountain, shining with an intoxicating light. It looked like there were at least a few thousand, or perhaps even tens of thousands of spirit stones.

Apart from spirit stones, there were dozens of bottles of medicinal pills, a large pile of rare materials, and a few brilliant weapons. All that was left was a mess.

Li Qing let out a long breath. This was truly a great fortune. The wealth of a Xiantian expert was truly unimaginable.

Although they had experienced a near-death calamity this time, it wasn’t too bad for them to be able to obtain so much wealth.

He handed the ring to Liu Ke’er and said, “Take a look.”

Liu Ke’er looked around and quickly exclaimed, “So many spirit stones. I’m rich now.” Her little face was flushed red, and she was very excited, just like a little miser.

However, she quickly calmed down. She handed the ring back to Li Qing and said seriously, “You killed Xu Haoyang. I didn’t help at all. All these things should belong to you.”

Li Qing laughed and said, “With our relationship, do we still need to be so clear? It’s so strange.”

Liu Ke’er blushed, turned her head and whispered, “What is our relationship? I’m not one of yours yet.”

Li Qing’s face turned stiff and he pretended to be angry, “I thought that we were living and dying together during this period of time. We didn’t abandon each other and we didn’t care about each other anymore. I didn’t expect that you would draw a clear line with me right after the calamity.”

“That’s not what I meant!” Liu Ke’er hurriedly waved her hand, as if she was about to cry.

Seeing her anxious appearance, Li Qing stopped teasing her. He held her small hand and smiled, “Alright, I’m joking. I’m not teasing you anymore. Put away these things first and we’ll talk about it when we get back.”

“Bad guy! I’m ignoring you.” She spat.

Li Qing suddenly stretched out his hand and pulled her into his embrace, hugging her tightly.

Liu Ke’er was caught off guard and was caught in a hug, causing her entire body to tremble.

Her face was red, and she felt weak, confused, and did not resist at all. She allowed Li Qing to hug her tightly and bury her head in his embrace.

Under the beautiful sunset, the two of them hugged each other tightly and never separated for a long time.

…

In the evening, the two found a place to settle down, set up their tents, and lit a fire.

“It smells good.” Liu Ke’er watched as Li Qing skillfully roasted the demonic beast meat and drooled.

“Of course. Several years of cooking.” Li Qing was very proud. Under the light of the fire, the meat was golden and shiny, giving off an attractive fragrance. He took out the seasoning from his interspatial ring and sprinkled it on it, causing the fragrance to become even denser.

“Uh, so full …” The two of them ate happily and ate a full meal, feeling satisfied.

As the crisis passed, they relaxed and lay comfortably on the ground, chatting.

Li Qing looked at the stars in the sky and recalled, “When I first saw you, you were still a fifteen-year-old girl. I didn’t expect that we would be able to get together today.”

“Yes, seven or eight years have passed in a flash. When I first saw you, I was like a piece of wood, stupid, unable to speak.” Liu Ke’er covered her mouth and chuckled.

Li Qing blushed and coughed dryly, “Can’t you give me some face?”

“No.” She laughed even louder, her flowers trembling.

‘”…”

“Mu Tou, are we going back soon?” Liu Ke’er was a little reluctant to part with it. Without the danger, she did not want to go back.

“Yeah, if you don’t go back, where else do you want to go? Master and the others might be worried right now.” Li Qing gently scratched her nose and said dotingly.

“Then do you have anything special you want to do after you go back this time?” She said inadvertently.

“Something special? Nothing. It’s just to cultivate hard and reach the Xiantian realm as soon as possible.” Li Qing was puzzled.

“You!” Liu Ke’er was a little angry and said, “It’s just a matter between us. I’m already in my twenties.”

“What happened between us?” Li Qing thought for a moment and suddenly realized, “Oh, you don’t want to do that with me, do you?”

“Where do you think you’re going?” Liu Ke’er was so angry that she punched him and said, “Big pervert, you only think about men and women. Didn’t you ever think of proposing marriage to my grandfather?”

“Propose marriage!” Li Qing was shocked and said happily, “So you will agree?”

Liu Ke’er’s face turned red. She turned her head away and did not directly reply, “You can do it yourself anyway.”

“Alright, I will propose marriage to Master after we return this time.” Li Qing was very happy. With excitement, he hugged Liu Ke’er in his arms again, as if he wanted to rub her into his body.

“Yes.” Liu Ke’er murmured softly, narrowed her eyes, and obediently buried her head in his embrace. She felt his love and felt extremely at ease.

…

The next morning, the two of them continued on their way and began to return along the same path.

With their strength, other than Xiantian-level demonic beasts, they didn’t care about any dangers and could directly charge through them.

Li Qing felt that he was very strong and confident, so he didn’t need to be too cautious.

Just as they were thinking this, they passed by a very quiet valley.

“This place seems to be a little too quiet.” Li Qing frowned. He vaguely felt that there was a great danger hidden here and began to consider whether he should take a detour.

Suddenly, the Heavenly Saber trembled violently. Li Qing carefully sensed it, and his expression couldn’t help but change drastically.

This time, the shock was even more intense than before. Could it be that another Xiantian-level killer had arrived?

At this moment, the valley suddenly trembled. Li Qing felt his hair stand firm, as if he was being targeted by a god of death, and a great horror was about to descend.

“Run!” Li Qing pulled Liu Ke’er up and ran without hesitation.

“Rumble!”

The hill exploded, and a huge white snake emerged, its movements extremely fast. When it saw the two of them, a trace of mockery flashed through its eyes.

“It’s actually a Xiantian demonic beast!” Li Qing turned around to see this demonic beast and immediately made a judgment.

Although its size wasn’t very large, it was extremely terrifying. Li Qing faintly felt that it was several times stronger than any demonic beast he had ever seen before.

Naturally, Xiantian demonic beasts had their own strengths and weaknesses. Everything Li Qing had seen in the past was relatively weak, and they were easily killed by the sect guardians. Right now, this one was extremely powerful. Perhaps it could be compared to Elder Liu’s level of human strength.

“This is dangerous.” Li Qing complained to himself, feeling that he was really unlucky. He had just escaped yesterday, but today he was in trouble again. Such a powerful demonic beast was extremely rare, and they never expected that they would encounter such a powerful demonic beast.

The white snake opened its mouth and spat out a ray of white light. It was like a laser cannon, instantly hitting in front of Li Qing and the other two.

“Boom!”

The ground shattered, creating a deep pit that blocked the way.

“Run in another direction.” Li Qing was helpless and could only be forced to change directions.

In the end, the white snake spat out another ray of white light, hitting the ground in front of them and intercepting them once again.

“What’s going on? Is it playing us?” Li Qing did not understand why the white snake did this. It could have directly shot them to death, but it did not do so. Instead, it cut off their escape route, as if it was playing with them.

“Since it doesn’t directly kill us, then perhaps it still has a chance of survival, so I can’t give up.”

The surrounding roads were blocked. Li Qingyi gritted his teeth and said, “Run up the mountain.”

Sure enough, when the two of them ran up the mountain, the white snake did not fire any more laser cannons. Instead, it rushed out of its body and chased after them personally, like a cat catching a mouse.

“Rumble!”

The giant snake crushed the ground, causing the ground to tremble. Everything was crushed into powder under the crushing force, and the trees along the road were instantly flattened.

It was too fast and unstoppable. Li Qing and Liu Ke’er were forced to run at full speed, using all their strength to suck milk.

In the end, they ran to a stone cliff. This place was already the top of the mountain, and there was no way forward. Li Qing looked down and saw that there was a deep valley beneath the cliff. It was too deep and covered with clouds and mist. He couldn’t see the bottom of the valley clearly.

“What should we do?” The two of them were anxious. There was no way forward, and there was a pursuer behind them. They were once again at a life-and-death desperate situation.

Seeing the giant snake crushing closer and closer, it seemed that the teasing look in White Snake’s eyes could be seen clearly. The situation was extremely critical.

“This time, there might really be no escape.” The two of them exchanged glances and remained silent.

After experiencing two terrible life and death crises in just a few days, their spirits were already extremely exhausted.

“Jump.” Li Qing said helplessly. Compared to the white snake behind him, if he jumped into the deep valley, he might even be able to fight for a chance of survival. After all, cultivators were powerful, and with true qi protecting their bodies, they might not be killed.

Liu Ke’er nodded heavily. The two of them looked at each other deeply, not saying anything.

They clenched their hands tightly and jumped down.
