Chapter 67: A Complete System, Qingxue Departs

Yan Xiao circled twice underground, leading the Golden Scale Shuttle further and further away. Only when the Golden Scale Shuttle's speed slowed down did he reveal a hint of a smile.

"Little guy, can't catch up to me, can you?"

He used Earth Origin Qi to harden the surrounding soil, squeezing it toward the Golden Scale Shuttle. Every time the Golden Scale Shuttle moved an inch, he increased the surrounding pressure.

He was locked in a standoff with the Golden Scale Shuttle.

Mieyao Zhenren's expression changed drastically; he was actually unable to control the Golden Scale Shuttle to return. Without the Golden Scale Shuttle, could Mieyao still be called a Zhenren?

His path to rising in power was entirely due to sheer dumb luck, having picked up this heaven-defying magical treasure, the Golden Scale Shuttle.

Otherwise, with his mediocre cultivation, he probably wouldn't be able to defeat any Sect Master who happened to emerge from the Seven Spirits.

"Owner, the Artifact Spirit of the Golden Scale Shuttle is still in its infancy. If you feed it a Golden Origin Pill, it might listen to you obediently."

The system suggested.

"Alright."

Yan Xiao hurriedly exchanged for a Golden Origin Pill, held it in his hand, and coaxed the Golden Scale Shuttle.

"Little Jin, Little Lin, Little Shuttle, do you want this Golden Origin Pill? If you behave and listen to me, I'll give the Spirit Pill to you."

The Golden Scale Shuttle suddenly stopped struggling and turned toward Yan Xiao, seemingly very eager for the Golden Origin Pill in his hand.

"Host, can't you be a bit more generous? This Golden Scale Shuttle hasn't been claimed by an owner yet. If you seize the opportunity to take it, it will surely become a great help to you."

The system said, sounding annoyed.

"Fine."

Yan Xiao exchanged for another Golden Origin Pill and waved it in his hand at the Golden Scale Shuttle.

The Golden Scale Shuttle trembled twice, and with a flash of golden light, a small golden figure walked out from within. At this moment, the small golden figure was staring longingly at the Golden Origin Pill in Yan Xiao's hand, drooling.

"So this is the Artifact Spirit of the Golden Scale Shuttle, how cute." Yan Xiao was charmed by this little golden doll.

The system indicated it didn't want to speak; one was a stingy person, the other was a loser, both seduced by two Golden Origin Pills.

"Huh, this little golden person doesn't have a ding-dong, could it be a girl?" Yan Xiao asked in confusion.

"My Owner... you are focusing on the wrong point!" The system was very helpless.

"You idiot, hurry up and call it over, and make it recognize you as its master while it eats the Golden Origin Pill." The system was exasperated.

"Oh."

Yan Xiao hurriedly waved his hand and said softly, "Come here, I'll give you everything."

The Artifact Spirit hesitated, seemingly a bit afraid of Yan Xiao.

But it really wanted to eat the Golden Origin Pill, and drool was flowing all over the ground.

"Ding, ding, ding, ding..."

Yan Xiao went all out, exchanged for yet another Golden Origin Pill, and shook it twice at the Artifact Spirit.

With three Golden Origin Pills, the little golden person finally couldn't resist the temptation, leaped, jumped into Yan Xiao's hand, and lowered its head to bite into the Golden Origin Pill.

At this very moment, Yan Xiao used his fingernail to prick his finger, and a drop of fresh blood dripped onto the Artifact Spirit's head.

The fresh blood sank into the Artifact Spirit's body, and one could clearly see a spot of bright red on its forehead—the master-recognition was successful!

The little golden person didn't seem to care at all, munching on the Golden Origin Pills; before long, it had eaten all three.

The little golden person lay comfortably in Yan Xiao's hand, rubbing its belly in satisfaction.

Yan Xiao just stared at her blankly, feeling a bit at a loss.

The little golden person was too adorable, and its body was so small that Yan Xiao was afraid he might accidentally crush it.

A golden light radiated from the little golden person; the medicinal properties of the Golden Origin Pill were taking effect.

The little golden person left Yan Xiao's palm, jumped back onto the Golden Scale Shuttle to stand, and closed its eyes to rest.

With light shimmering, the little golden person and the Golden Scale Shuttle grew larger at the same time. The little golden person went from the size of a goose egg to the size of a palm, and the Golden Scale Shuttle grew much longer, looking even sharper.

Mieyao Zhenren completely lost his connection to the Golden Scale Shuttle, which made him very uneasy and terrified.

Fear Value +1000.

Just then, Yan Xiao slowly emerged from the ground, standing cheerfully in front of Mieyao Zhenren, with the Golden Scale Shuttle happily circling around him.

"What did you do to my Golden Scale Shuttle? Give it back to me!"

Mieyao Zhenren collapsed instantly, tears streaming down his face as he charged toward Yan Xiao while crying.

"Yan Xiao, you brat, I will fight you to the death." Mieyao was filled with grief and indignation, shouting with a cracking voice.

Just as his voice fell, the Magic Sword pierced through from behind him and returned to Yan Xiao's hand; Mieyao Zhenren was dead.

Yan Xiao scratched his head; he had prepared a trap, hiding the Magic Sword behind Mieyao, thinking of catching him off guard and launching a sneak attack, but he hadn't expected Mieyao to fall for it so easily.

Seeing the Golden Scale Shuttle being subdued by Yan Xiao, he had completely lost his sanity.

He died quite miserably.

High in the air, Luosang and Chang Yongsheng were still locked in a fierce battle with Tingyu Gongzi, but it could be seen that the two of them were at their wits' end and were about to be unable to withstand Tingyu's fierce attacks.

"Wanqing, are you ready yet? I can't hold on much longer." Chang Yongsheng shouted loudly.

"Just a little bit more." Feng Wanqing's reply came from the air.

Everyone looked over and only then discovered that Feng Wanqing had been hiding in the surroundings, preparing this ultimate killing move.

Tingyu sensed the surroundings with his heart, his expression changed drastically, and he immediately increased his offensive, using a killing move to strike at Chang Yongsheng.

Countless huge rain swords condensed in the air; with this strike, Chang Yongsheng would surely die.

If Luosang couldn't dodge in time, he would also be unable to escape his fate.

"Damn it."

Yan Xiao cursed inwardly, preparing to use the Eight Precepts Card to save their lives.

Just as he was about to summon Bajie, a tall woman suddenly appeared.

She stepped through the air, and with every step she took, an Ice Lotus bloomed beneath her feet. As she approached, Tingyu Gongzi's sword rain was frozen and unable to move forward.

Feng Wanqing's footsteps were light and graceful, her speed extremely fast; she circled the cloud bank of Tingyu, and countless Ice Lotuses converged toward the dark clouds, forming a massive sealing array.

"Ice Lotus Demon Sealing Array, quite the grand gesture, but the execution is still lacking; wanting to keep me here... impossible."

Tingyu dared not linger in battle; he struck out with a sword, shattering the weakest Ice Lotus, and the dark clouds transformed into air currents that scattered in all directions.

"If there had been one more Ice Lotus, you would have been able to keep me; what a pity," Tingyu's regretful voice drifted down from the sky.

Chang Yongsheng lowered his head in shame, his face full of unwillingness, "Wanqing, it is your uncle who is incompetent."

If he had persisted for just a moment longer, Young Master Tingyu would not have been able to escape.

"It is of no concern; Uncle's life is far more precious than his," Feng Wanqing comforted him.

After going to such great lengths, Tingyu still managed to escape, and in the future, they might face his omnipresent assassinations; it was not as relaxed as the tall woman had made it sound.

Yan Xiao could not intervene in a battle of this level at all; he discovered that the more he cultivated, the more he felt his own insignificance.

It is still a matter of insufficient cultivation.

"Sect Master."

Luosang walked to his side, also feeling somewhat helpless; this Young Master Tingyu was elusive and truly a troublesome character.

His cultivation and divine abilities were so formidable that if one could not kill him in a single strike, it was very difficult to keep him contained.

"Are you unharmed?" Yan Xiao asked.

"Just superficial wounds, it is fine; I simply could not get close to Young Master Tingyu, his Rain Sword has an absolute suppressive effect on me..." Luosang sighed.

It was the first time he had suffered a major disadvantage due to the attributes of a cultivation technique.

"Tingyu's divine abilities are indeed remarkable, but it is mainly because his cultivation realm is higher than yours; otherwise, it would not necessarily have been a losing battle," Yan Xiao comforted him.

Luosang gave a bitter smile; having inferior cultivation meant he had already lost from the start.

"Sect Master, when we return this time, I would like to enter the Spirit Cave to cultivate in seclusion," Luosang said.

"Let's go together; I will go as well."

Yan Xiao said with a smile; Luoxia Mountain was getting on the right track, and Qingxue was also in seclusion healing her wounds, so he would take the opportunity to properly consolidate his cultivation.
