Chapter 89: Picked Up a Little Maid

Hearing this, Lin Zhangqing knew that he definitely couldn't avoid it, so he walked out with the Thunder Horn in his hand, and then asked: "How have you been able to determine my location all along?"

The female cultivator was overjoyed when she heard Lin Zhangqing speak: "It's Xiao Jin, a Golden-Winged Bird I raised."

At this time, the Heavenly Star Sword Sect cultivator said: "Fellow Daoist, this is a grudge between her and me. Why do you have to intervene? Why don't you leave quickly!"

The female cultivator was shocked. This was her only chance of survival. If this cultivator left, she absolutely had no reason to survive.

Thinking of this, she immediately made up her mind, gritted her teeth and swore: "Heaven as witness, Great Dao as proof, I, Mu Xiaoxiao, am willing to recognize the cultivator in front of me as master, serve for life, and never betray for eternity. If I violate this oath, I will immediately fly away and scatter, and never enter reincarnation!"

Just after the oath was made, a magical power descended into Lin Zhangqing's sea of consciousness, forming a small silver rune.

Lin Zhangqing knew he couldn't delay any longer. With a thought, the Thunder Horn shot out the Geng Metal Divine Thunder that had been prepared just now.

The Heavenly Star Sword Sect cultivator didn't expect the situation to change so quickly, and what attacked him was not a dharma artifact or spell, but a Geng Metal Divine Thunder. The flying sword he left in front of him to protect his body couldn't block it at all, and he was blown into pieces along with the sword.

Mu Xiaoxiao was also startled, but seeing that she was finally saved, her mind relaxed, and her whole body sat paralyzed on the ground.

At this time, Lin Zhangqing also walked over. Mu Xiaoxiao looked at the person carefully. His appearance was ordinary, which made her a bit disappointed! She didn't know why she had this emotion, maybe because this person was her master!

She hurriedly stood up and said respectfully: "Mu Xiaoxiao greets Master, thank you Master for saving my life."

Lin Zhangqing nodded. Only then did he have the opportunity to carefully look at this little maid who had suddenly popped out. Her height was seven or eight centimeters shorter than Lin Zhangqing, and she looked quite exquisite, a bit like a neighbor's little sister.

"Tell me what happened?" Lin Zhangqing said.

"Yes, the eight of us finally gathered together in the Secret Realm, thinking of walking around to find some spirit medicines. I didn't expect to encounter an ambush by the Heavenly Star Sword Sect, and three people fell on the spot."

"Ninth Senior Sister detonated several Yin Thunder Beads, creating an opportunity for us to disperse and escape. I ran in this direction under Xiao Jin's guidance, and later I met Master."

After speaking, she stopped talking, as if she had something to say.

Lin Zhangqing looked at her and said helplessly: "If you have something to say, just say it. What's the point of making this gesture!"

Mu Xiaoxiao said flatteringly: "Master, you are so powerful, can you save Ninth Senior Sister? I saw her running out too, and a Heavenly Star Sword Sect cultivator went to chase her."

Hearing her say this, Lin Zhangqing rolled his eyes at her, started to clean up the spoils of war on the ground, and then recalled the Purple Crystal Scorpion swarm.

Mu Xiaoxiao didn't expect that there were so many of Master's spirit insects around. Fortunately, she took the initiative to recognize him as master, otherwise she didn't know what the consequences would be. She didn't expect that she had walked through the gate of hell twice.

He cleaned up the corpse with a fireball technique, confirmed that there were no omissions, and just wanted to set off for the Wanzhu Forest.

Suddenly he remembered something, "You just said you have three Xuanhuang fruits, take them out for me." Lin Zhangqing said impolitely.

"Oh, yes." Mu Xiaoxiao hurriedly took out a jade box and handed it to Lin Zhangqing.

Opening it, inside were three fruits with golden and yellow interlaced, confirming that they were Xuanhuang fruits.

Lin Zhangqing nodded and said: "These three Xuanhuang fruits will be the reward for saving you. Don't leak any of my information. That oath you made doesn't count! Go back and find your companions!"

After speaking, without waiting for her reply, Lin Zhangqing set off.

He really didn't intend to bring a little maid by his side. It was inconvenient, and there was a danger of exposing his identity.

Mu Xiaoxiao saw Lin Zhangqing say this sentence and left. She gritted her teeth and followed, and didn't speak, just followed all the time.

Lin Zhangqing was speechless and ignored her, directly speeding up toward the Wanzhu Forest. Mu Xiaoxiao also gritted her teeth and followed, while dealing with the wounds on her body. She hadn't rested since being chased just now, but she was still stubborn and refused to give up.

After walking for a while, Lin Zhangqing knew that she had a Golden-Winged Bird and couldn't shake her off, so he found a place to stop and rest.

"What exactly are you thinking? Isn't it good to let you be free? I have a mission myself, and I can't help you with anything." Lin Zhangqing explained the matter directly.

Mu Xiaoxiao also hurriedly sat down to rest. After listening to what Lin Zhangqing said, she shook her head and said: "Master, this oath is not made casually, especially for disciples who cultivate the Mind-Questioning Sutra. And the Secret Realm is so dangerous, isn't it stupid not to follow Master?"

"Then you will follow me even after leaving the Secret Realm?" Lin Zhangqing asked back. "If Master wants me to follow, I will sneak out of the sect and run to follow you." Mu Xiaoxiao blinked and said.

Lin Zhangqing was speechless. This was treating himself as a bodyguard! "Then what's the use of me bringing you?"

"I will sing for Master to listen. If Master likes it, dancing is also fine. I can also brew tea." Mu Xiaoxiao said slightly proudly.

Lin Zhangqing said: "Actually, you still have an advantage that you didn't say."

Mu Xiaoxiao asked curiously: "What advantage?"

Lin Zhangqing glanced at her and said: "You run fast, that sword cultivator didn't catch up with you!"

Mu Xiaoxiao laughed non-stop when she heard this, and it took a long time to control it, saying: "Master, you are so good at joking! I thought you were just a boring wooden block!"

Lin Zhangqing shook his head and said: "I have to rush to protect someone. It's inconvenient for you to follow. You should go and stay with your fellow disciples first."

Mu Xiaoxiao hurriedly shook her head and said: "No, no, I must follow Master, otherwise I will definitely die in the Secret Realm!" After speaking, she looked at Lin Zhangqing pitifully.

Lin Zhangqing thought for a moment and asked: "Alchemy, artifact refining, formation setting, talisman drawing, planting, which one can you do?"

Mu Xiaoxiao blinked and said: "Does knowing how to plant flowers count? And knowing how to raise Golden-Winged Birds count?"

Lin Zhangqing was really laughed at by her and didn't want to speak anymore.

After a while, seeing that the rest was almost done, he set off directly, and Mu Xiaoxiao hurriedly followed.

It was still the principle of not provoking trouble, avoiding it as much as possible, and walked for more than an hour. Chu Yi warned that someone was fighting ahead. Lin Zhangqing adjusted his direction, preparing to avoid it. At this time, Mu Xiaoxiao gave an "ah."

Lin Zhangqing glanced at her and asked: "What's wrong with you again?"

Mu Xiaoxiao grabbed Lin Zhangqing's hand excitedly and said: "It's Ninth Senior Sister, Master, please save her, please."

Seeing her like this, it seemed that if Lin Zhangqing didn't agree, she wouldn't let go. Lin Zhangqing was helpless and could only agree to go over and take a look.

The two approached the place where the fighting fluctuation was emitted. Looking at it, a man and a woman were fighting. To be precise: "The Xianyin Sect female cultivator should be trapped in the sword formation. It looked like they had been fighting for a while, and the female cultivator was already in danger."

Mu Xiaoxiao's heart beat violently when she saw this, and it felt like it was going to jump out of her chest, but she just endured it and didn't dare to make a sound, only nervously shaking Lin Zhangqing's hand, with tears in her eyes, looking at Lin Zhangqing with a pleading look.

Lin Zhangqing sighed and began to inject spirit energy into the Thunder Horn. After waiting for a while, he walked over.

Mu Xiaoxiao also hurriedly followed into the battlefield range, and then shouted: "Ninth Senior Sister, I am here to help you."

Then she commanded her flying sword and rushed straight at the Heavenly Star Sword Sect cultivator. The Heavenly Star Sword Sect cultivator saw that two people had come, and he already had the intention to retreat in his heart, and was just about to withdraw and leave.

Mu Xiaoxiao's flying sword had already arrived, and he could only draw two flying swords from the sword formation that trapped the Ninth Senior Sister to meet the enemy, and then flew back.

The Ninth Senior Sister saw that the Heavenly Star Sword Sect cultivator wanted to run away and shouted: "Leave him!"

Mu Xiaoxiao also shouted: "Master!"

As soon as the voice fell, with a loud "boom," the Geng Metal Divine Thunder had arrived. The Heavenly Star Sword Sect cultivator only had time to scream, and then he was blown into pieces.

Mu Xiaoxiao cheered and turned to look at the Ninth Senior Sister, finding that she was swaying and about to faint.

She screamed: "Ninth Senior Sister!" and hurriedly ran over to check, finding that it was just excessive blood loss and exhaustion of spirit energy.

Feeling a little relieved, she hurriedly and skillfully stopped the bleeding, applied medicine, and bandaged for her senior sister, and then took out some pills from the storage bag for her senior sister to take.

Mu Xiaoxiao went to apply medicine and bandage for her senior sister. Lin Zhangqing was not convenient to go over, so he cleaned up the scene, storage bags, spirit plant bags, five dharma artifact flying swords, etc., were all collected, and then a fireball technique cleaned up the scene.
