Chapter 267
Seeking flowers
And the person currently fighting was none other than a famous person in Liyue, Chongyun.
It was just that his current state could not be considered good.
His originally neat and tidy clothes were now tattered, and there were some fresh wounds on his body.
The expensive greatsword in his hand was also covered in claw marks.
Chongyun leaned against the cliff, panting as he looked at the many fierce beasts opposite him, cold sweat dripping down. Chongyun felt that today was the unluckiest day of his life.
He had seen fierce beasts today, and Chongyun thought that since fierce beasts had appeared in Jueyun Karst, some spiritual herbs from cultivation novels should also appear.
Perhaps it could solve the problem of his Pure Yang Body.
He took the risk to come over to try, but he didn't find any spiritual herbs, and he successfully encountered fierce beasts.
And what was even unluckier was that it was a pack of dozens of fierce beast wolves!
Each wolf was a Foundation Establishment early-stage fierce beast, and the wolf king was an existence at the Foundation Establishment mid-stage.
After a bitter battle, Chongyun had only killed a dozen or so, but at the same time, he was exhausted.
The wolf king hadn't even made a move yet, and he had already been forced into a desperate situation.
Right now, there was truly no way to heaven and no door to enter the earth.
Chongyun smiled bitterly in his heart.
This time, he was afraid he was going to fall; he might not even have the chance for Hu Tao to collect his corpse.
These wolves were clearly aiming to eat him.
"If I had known... I would have called Xingqiu and Xiangling together first..."
Chongyun sighed sadly and tightened his grip on the greatsword.
His elemental energy was basically exhausted.
Without elemental energy, relying solely on his physique, he was no match for the fierce beasts.
Seeing that the wolf pack was becoming increasingly restless.
Chongyun was planning to make a final sprint, at least taking a few with him.
Suddenly, a crisp bell sound came to his ears.
"Ascend to the high heavens, clarify the nine nethers, green lanterns lead the way, white cranes drive the journey."
"Walking unseen, sitting unknown, moving spirits and walking shadows, controlling spirits and returning to life."
"Hurry like a law!"
A familiar loli voice rang out, and Chongyun was stunned for a moment.
The next moment, many sharp black shadows rushed out of the jungle.
Instantly, they rushed into the wolf pack.
Those black shadows were extremely fast, moving like the wind, yet their bodies were like steel and they had infinite strength.
The fierce beast wolf pack, which had been invincible, was easily blown away in a single collision.
When they landed on the ground, they were already corpses.
But the next moment, these fierce beast corpses stood up again as the bell sounded.
With an even more ferocious posture, they pounced on the other wolves.
"I'm saved..."
Chongyun's heart relaxed, and he slowly slid to the ground, panting for breath, intending to express his gratitude.
But after seeing those black shadows clearly, he couldn't help but gasp.
Missing an arm, missing a head, half the body missing...
This is...
A pile of corpses saved him?
Chongyun couldn't help but rub his eyes, looking incredulously at this grotesque scene.
The next moment, he slapped himself hard.
"It's over, I must be hallucinating before I die; how could so many corpses come to save me?"
Especially seeing those fierce beast wolves turn into corpses and then help these corpses fight.
Chongyun felt even more confused.
After an unknown amount of time, only the last wolf king remained in the field.
The wolf king saw that the situation was not good and was preparing to flee, but was swarmed by a pile of corpses and assimilated into a new corpse in minutes.
In the darkness, Qiqi's figure slowly walked out.
Shaking the bell, she walked to Chongyun.
Those corpses also obediently rearranged themselves behind Qiqi.
Chongyun stared blankly at Qiqi; under the moonlight, this little zombie looked exceptionally sacred.
Chongyun pinched himself tremblingly.
He said somewhat sadly:
"I must be dreaming..."
"Qiqi... how can she drive corpses!!"
166. Hu Tao is furious: Is there no justice left? Who taught Qiqi to perform corpse driving!
She pinched herself repeatedly, many times, until she had bruised her own skin.
Chongyun finally confirmed that everything he was experiencing was real.
Qiqi, indeed, knew how to perform corpse driving.
For a moment, a massive urge to complain surged in his heart.
This world has truly gone mad.
A zombie learning to drive corpses, and doing it so well at that—this matter...
Does Hu Tao know?
How would Hu Tao view this?
After a long silence, Chongyun struggled to stand up.
"Qiqi, it's been a long time. Thank you so much for saving me this time; I am truly grateful."
Qiqi tilted her head and examined Chongyun.
The latter gave a bitter smile.
"You really still don't remember me... It's me, Chong..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Qiqi said silently:
"Chongyun, Qiqi remembers you."
"..."
Chongyun was stunned for a moment, staring at Qiqi in disbelief.
"You remember me?! Has your memory recovered?"
Qiqi nodded blankly.
"Sect Master brother said that after Qiqi cultivates immortality, her memory will recover very quickly and she won't forget many things anymore."
"So Qiqi must cultivate diligently."
"Your aura is very similar to Senior Sister Shenhe... You must be the nephew Chongyun that Senior Sister Shenhe mentioned."
Chongyun's eyes lit up, and he looked at Qiqi with excitement.
"Qiqi, you really did join the Shushan Sect! And my aunt..."
"Aunt hasn't written to us in a long time, and my family elders have been very worried about her."
"So Aunt went to cultivate immortality too, that's just great!"
"How is Aunt doing now?"
Qiqi reacted for a long while before she finished analyzing Chongyun's words.
Thinking it over, there was nothing important, so Qiqi simply turned around and continued shaking her bell as she headed toward Liyue Harbor.
Chongyun wasn't embarrassed; after all, Qiqi's personality had always been like this, and she had only recovered some of her memory now.
But he figured it wouldn't be the same as a normal person in such a short time.
Putting away his weapon, Chongyun hurried to catch up with Qiqi.
