Chapter 219: Charging with Horns

This was quite a rare thing, but Lin Zhangqing knew that Lu Youqiang and his family had indeed made a contribution this time.

Therefore, Lin Zhangqing personally provided them with a full-body stroking and fur-smoothing service, which felt so comfortable that Lu Xiaoya and Lu Xiaoling leaned against Lin Zhangqing and didn't want to move.

Lu Youqiang also wanted to lean against Lin Zhangqing, but this guy had horns on its head, which easily poked him, so Lin Zhangqing let it walk further away.

Only at this time did he have free time to deal with Xu Meiniang and Zhao Liyu; looking at them, he felt their complexions were not bad.

So he asked: "Which of you tell me about the experience of this mission? Didn't Chu Yi say that Xu Meiniang was injured? Has it already healed?"

Hearing Lin Zhangqing mention her injury, Xu Meiniang hurriedly explained: "Replying to Master, I did indeed suffer some trauma in the battle.

However, fortunately, Master's two Three-Colored Deer were present; the Spring Return Technique they cast had a very good effect, and coupled with these few days of recuperation, it is estimated that it will be completely healed in about another month."

Hearing her say this, Lin Zhangqing nodded; this was best. Xu Meiniang and Zhao Liyu had performed quite well so far.

They executed his orders very well and were considered good subordinates; Lin Zhangqing didn't want them to die or fall just like that.

At this time, Zhao Liyu said: "Master, let me tell you!

We flew from outside the Jinzhou Market toward Nanfeng County, and flew for about three days; when we received Master's message, we were also near Nanfeng County.

We encountered several demon hunting squads along the way, but fortunately, everyone was safe and sound; unexpectedly, after entering the outer perimeter of the Qingyun Mountain Range, we encountered even more cultivators, so we had to search in a direction with fewer people.

It was a pity that the range was truly too large; we could still encounter people in the first two days, but later there were only ourselves.

Fortunately, at this time, we received the direction guided by Master and also recognized Master's spirit pet, the Golden Winged Bird.

Knowing it was here to guide us, we had to follow it, otherwise we would definitely still be wandering around inside the Qingyun Mountain Range!

Sure enough, two days later, under the guidance of the Golden Winged Bird, we discovered those four Three-Colored Deer one step ahead of others.

Then we followed Master's arrangement, released Lu Youqiang and Lu Xiaoya, and went to communicate with them to see if we could recruit them.

However, the two sides "Yo-yo!"-ed for quite a long time, and we didn't see Lu Youqiang bring them back.

Afraid of long delays, we made a prompt decision and used the spiritual objects Master gave us to drug them all, and just after tying them up, we put them into the spirit beast bag.

Just as we wanted to capture Lu Youqiang and the others, a five-person demon hunting squad suddenly appeared; as soon as they saw Lu Youqiang and Lu Xiaoya, they directly attacked us.

We were caught off guard and could only fight back desperately; Meiniang was also injured at this time.

Because the strength comparison was too disparate, we had to make a prompt decision and used the Yin Thunder Beads Master gave us, consuming a total of four Yin Thunder Beads, killing one person and injuring two on the other side.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Lu Youqiang suddenly turned into a gust of wind, rushed toward one of the cultivators on the other side, and slammed into his body fiercely.

That person was knocked flying at least three or four zhang away, and there were several holes in his body; as soon as he landed, he looked like he was dying, and was finished off by Meiniang with a sword."

Hearing this, Lin Zhangqing was startled; he didn't expect that the auspicious spirit beast Three-Colored Deer, which he had always thought was harmless to humans and animals, actually had this move of wind-escape charging with horns.

Looking at Lu Youqiang's figure, it was now more than six chi tall; if the antlers on its head were counted, it should exceed nine chi, appearing a bit taller than when it had just advanced to the second stage.

Its body was nearly ten chi long, looking even stronger than before; this figure should be about the same as a horse's physique.

It was just that the four legs were not as thick as a horse's legs, appearing slightly thinner, but they also looked powerful and strong, and it gave people the feeling that it was very good at jumping.

This figure must be at least five or six hundred catties; using wind-escape to charge with horns, just thinking about it made one feel terrified! And now Lin Zhangqing finally knew what Lu Youqiang's claiming credit meant just now; thinking of this, he couldn't help but summon it over. After stroking its head, he touched the sharp antlers on its head again; since it could now help kill enemies, the treatment was different.

Subsequently, he took out two hundred-year Vermilion Fruits from his storage bag, and without cutting them open to take out the pits, he fed both Vermilion Fruits directly to Lu Youqiang.

Lu Youqiang got the reward and contentedly nudged Lin Zhangqing with its head; this guy had horns on its head, so Lin Zhangqing didn't dare let it mess around.

Seeing Lu Youqiang get the spirit fruit reward, Lu Xiaoya and Lu Xiaoling couldn't sit still, immediately surrounding Lin Zhangqing and "Yo-yo!"-ing; Lu Xiaoling even relied on Lin Zhangqing's favor and drilled directly into his arms.

There was no other way, he could only take out two more Vermilion Fruits, cut one of them into two halves, fed half to Lu Xiaoling, and gave the remaining one and a half to Lu Xiaoya, which barely appeased them.

Now Lin Zhangqing was in a very good mood, directly holding Lu Xiaoling in his arms, stroking its fur, and then said to Zhao Liyu: "You continue!"

Zhao Liyu nodded and continued: "After Lu Youqiang hit one cultivator, it turned half a circle, adjusted slightly, and then hit another cultivator.

Its wind-escape speed was truly too fast; Qi Refining stage cultivators simply couldn't avoid it and were hit one after another.

And under these circumstances, they couldn't run even if they wanted to; finally, the remaining injured one was jointly killed by me and Meiniang.

Subsequently, I was afraid that the spiritual energy fluctuations of the battle would attract other demon hunting squads, so I quickly cleaned up the battlefield.

And the other Three-Colored Deer cast the Spring Return Technique to heal Meiniang.

Not long after, I received Master's guidance, saying that we could find a place to rest appropriately, and also gave a meeting point, and requested to arrive as soon as possible.

Soon, we found a relatively hidden place, rested for half a day, and after Meiniang confirmed that the injury on her body was not a big problem, we started to return.

Next, it was with the help of Master's spirit pet, the Golden Winged Bird, to avoid various demonic beasts and demon hunting squads as much as possible.

We successfully arrived near that Red Refined Fire Copper Mine and waited for Master's arrival; there was nothing much to say after that."

Listening to Zhao Liyu's account, Lin Zhangqing nodded and thought for a moment: "You have done very well this time, successfully completing the mission and bringing back those four Three-Colored Deer.

So I decided to give you some rewards; Xu Meiniang, I will reward you with resources to cultivate to the Foundation Establishment Great Perfection, and after reaching the Foundation Establishment Great Perfection, I will give you a Purple Mansion Tongxuan Pill, or a spiritual object with similar effects."

Hearing the reward Lin Zhangqing gave her, Xu Meiniang was overjoyed; she knew that quite a few main ingredients for the Purple Mansion Tongxuan Pill were planted in the inner space.

She firmly believed that Master would give her a Purple Mansion Tongxuan Pill, so she hurriedly thanked Lin Zhangqing.

As for Zhao Liyu, Lin Zhangqing considered it for a while before saying to her: "You already have the things I just gave Xu Meiniang; I can't think of what is suitable to give you for a moment.

Why don't you think about what you want yourself! As long as it's not too difficult, I can promise you."

Hearing what Lin Zhangqing said, Zhao Liyu was overjoyed; this time on the mission, she saw Master's few spirit pets, especially that male Three-Colored Deer, which left a deep impression on her.

It looked beautiful and elegant, but unexpectedly played such an important role at a critical moment, so she was very eager to have a spirit pet of her own.

Just hearing Lin Zhangqing let her decide what she wanted, this was exactly what she wanted.

So she directly opened her mouth and made her request to Lin Zhangqing: "Master, I want a spirit pet." After speaking, she looked at him full of expectation.
