Chapter 103: The Fairy Leng Yuexi, and the Honest Zhou Sui

~8 min read 1,505 words

To tell the truth, this is indeed an unprecedented opportunity.

After all, in ordinary times, Zhou Sui would have no qualifications to meet a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, let alone a female Foundation Establishment Cultivator like Leng Yuexi; with different statuses and different strengths, they naturally would have no chance to meet.

If this opportunity is missed, there is no telling how long one would have to wait.

Moreover, he is not at all repulsed by the idea of climbing the social ladder by relying on a woman.

Some people rely on their parents to get ahead, some rely on their talent, and some rely on luck; aren't they all using external forces?!

Why shouldn't one be able to rely on a Dao Companion?

Swoosh!

Thinking of this, Zhou Sui did not hesitate and immediately issued an order to this avatar of his.

The next second, this avatar instantly appeared in this small alley and arrived in front of Leng Yuexi.

Suddenly, his spirit lifted; even in the Darkness, it could not conceal the stunning beauty of the woman before him—her skin was delicate enough to be broken by a blow, she had a beautiful oval face, and she was graceful and charming, enough to make anyone who saw her feel pity.

Even though she was in the mortal world, it could not conceal her transcendent and refined temperament.

The other party's figure was also quite proud, exquisite and curvaceous, without a single flaw from head to toe.

No wonder this woman is called the fairy of the sect; she truly lives up to her reputation.

"Interesting. I, Leng Yuexi, have truly fallen from grace and am being bullied by a dog, to the point that even a tiny Qi Refining Cultivator dares to come and waylay me?" Leng Yuexi looked at Zhou Sui with cold, beautiful eyes, a terrifying aura permeating from her body.

She seemed to want to strike instantly to kill this man of unknown origin before her.

Although her body was indeed poisoned, and she had spent more than two years unable to purge it.

But a Foundation Establishment Cultivator is still a Foundation Establishment Cultivator; no matter how weak, they are not someone a Qi Refining Cultivator can provoke.

It is just like a weak tiger; it is not something a rabbit can challenge.

"Senior Leng, rest assured, I am not your enemy, but rather someone who wants to help you."

Zhou Sui did not have the slightest fear and still looked at the other party with a calm and composed expression, as if he could not feel the killing intent that meant his imminent death at all, appearing incredibly open-minded.

"Help me? A tiny Qi Refining Cultivator like you, on what grounds can you help me?"

Hearing this, Leng Yuexi suddenly felt a bit like laughing; she herself was currently unable to even protect her own life and did not know if she could leave this place alive, yet this tiny Qi Refining Cultivator actually dared to say such ridiculous words.

If it were ordinary times, she would have long since slapped this tiny cultivator to death.

But for some reason, looking at Zhou Sui's calm face, she felt a trace of a sense of security.

It seemed her instinct was telling her that this man was worth trusting.

Most importantly, this male cultivator seemed to have a bit of charm; at least he was not like those other stinking men.

This was actually one of the powers brought by the Infatuation Gu.

Even if it could not increase Zhou Sui's strength, it could increase his charm, especially his charm toward women.

Such charm was almost independent of cultivation level.

Of course, the lower the cultivation level of the female cultivator, the greater the influence naturally was.

Leng Yuexi was also influenced to a certain degree without realizing it.

Although she was not in love with the other party, at the very least she had a trace of good will and was willing to listen to Zhou Sui's words.

If it were any other male cultivator, they would have been beaten to death by her long ago; she would have had no interest in listening to any of their nonsense.

"If I am not mistaken, Senior Leng must have been poisoned, and your strength is less than one-tenth of what it was."

"Right now, the outside is full of Youmo Sect cultivators, and there are even Foundation Establishment Cultivators eyeing you like tigers."

"If you were to escape Miyun City now, Senior Leng would likely be dead for certain."

"But I have a residence that could save your life, Senior."

"Of course, you don't need to worry that I would plot against you, Senior; if I really wanted to plot against you, I could just leak your whereabouts to the Youmo Sect; why go through all this extra trouble?"

Zhou Sui smiled slightly.

"Interesting. Then what do you want? What do you want to get from me?"

Leng Yuexi gave the other party a deep look.

She also believed his words by thirty percent.

Because it was indeed the case; if the other party truly harbored malice, he could have leaked her whereabouts long ago instead of risking death to intercept her.

What do I want? Of course, I want you; I want you entirely.

With you, what could I not obtain?

Zhou Sui blinked; of course, he would not be foolish enough to say these words out loud. He said very sincerely: "To tell you the truth, I am a Loose Cultivator, and I am about to reach the ninth layer of Qi Refining. In the future, if I want to become a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, I will need a Foundation Establishment Pill. The problem is, as a Loose Cultivator, it is very difficult to obtain a Foundation Establishment Pill."

"But if I save you, Senior Leng, I feel that perhaps I could obtain a Foundation Establishment Pill to help me advance to the Foundation Establishment Realm; this is my goal."

"But if you were to hand me over, couldn't you obtain a Foundation Establishment Pill from the Youmo Sect just the same?"

Leng Yuexi was noncommittal.

However, in her heart, she believed him by fifty percent.

She was not afraid of the other party having a request; she was only afraid of them having no requests.

If it were a Foundation Establishment Pill, given her status and position, it was not a difficult matter.

"How can one trust the words of Demonic Sect cultivators? By comparison, I trust Senior Leng, who comes from a righteous sect, much more."

"If it were Youmo Sect cultivators, I fear that before I even got the Foundation Establishment Pill, I would have been slaughtered by the demonic cultivators."

Zhou Sui said very earnestly.

"Not bad, you can be considered a smart person. Those demonic cultivators are indeed all despicable, shameless, sinister, and cunning, without any credibility. If you really believed their promises, you would not be far from death."

Leng Yuexi was very satisfied with Zhou Sui's answer.

It seems the reputation of righteous sects is still somewhat useful; at least at critical moments, one can still obtain the help of Loose Cultivators.

"It seems Senior Leng has agreed to my request?"

Zhou Sui revealed a joyful expression.

"That's right, I agree; if you rescue me, then the Foundation Establishment Pill will naturally be handed over to you."

"However, Miyun City is currently surrounded by demonic cultivators; how do you intend to rescue me?"

"If I were to die here, I would naturally have no way to fulfill my promise to you."

Leng Yuexi was very curious about what method this man before her had to rescue her, as she knew they had long been surrounded on all sides by the Youmo Sect, and it was simply impossible to escape.

"Senior Leng, just follow me."

Zhou Sui did not explain anything, then led Leng Yuexi to a nearby deserted courtyard, where a huge pit appeared inside that could lead to an Underground Shelter.

"A pit? Could it be that you dug a tunnel underground?"

Leng Yuexi instantly understood Zhou Sui's method of escape.

"That's right, I spent a great deal of time digging a huge maze beneath Miyun City."

Zhou Sui nodded: "As long as we escape through the underground tunnels, even Foundation Establishment Cultivators from the Youmo Sect won't be able to know where we are hiding. If we hide underground for a period of time and those demonic cultivators cannot find any trace of you, then the Youmo Sect will naturally retreat, and by then we can leave from here."

"Not bad, not bad."

Hearing this, Leng Yuexi's beautiful eyes suddenly lit up, and she felt very excited.

If there really was a huge tunnel underground, then it could indeed evade the tracking of the Youmo Sect and thereby escape to safety.

She felt very joyful in her heart; it seemed she truly would not need to die this time.
