Chapter 215

"Still too weak!"

Wang Ping'an lay in his mother's embrace, watching Hu Meiniang and Dai Zhishang mount the black horse outside the courtyard one after another, watching their eye-catching departing backs, his face showed not a hint of curiosity, let alone gossipy intent.

Moreover, it was still about the motivation to become stronger.

If.

If he had the ability to move heaven, how could he possibly hide in his mother's embrace, not daring to act rashly?

Only if his master might encounter danger would he have the courage to prepare to drive the sword apparatus inside his body to help?

Moreover, how could he just watch his mother tremble before Hu Meiniang, even though he still controlled the sword apparatus inside his body, he could only launch a surprise attack on Hu Meiniang when she sought to take his mother's life.

But.

As for whether he could kill Hu Meiniang, he actually didn't have much confidence.

It is very likely that once Hu Meiniang harbors killing intent, even if he attacks unexpectedly and drives the sword apparatus inside his body, he may not necessarily be able to kill her.

At most he could only injure Hu Meiniang!

The final result.

It was that he and his mother both perished in the Yellow Springs!

This is why he could only watch his mother tremble helplessly, not daring to act rashly for fear of provoking Hu Meiniang.

Endangering his mother's life!

Fortunately.

Although Hu Meiniang is a monster, she is not an ordinary monster; she is a different kind of monster and did not harm his or his mother's lives.

However.

This time he encountered a good monster like Hu Meiniang, but next time it's hard to say.

He cannot rely entirely on good luck for his and his family's lives.

In a moment, Wang Ping'an wished to drive the paper person away to the Nine Heads Mountain Market, slaughter indiscriminately to gain a large amount of merit, although the Nine Heads Mountain Market is not necessarily all bad people or bad monsters.

But bad people and bad monsters certainly account for sixty or seventy percent, or even more!

However.

Besides whether it would succeed, doing this to gain a large amount of merit, he does not know if the other side is wrong, and what difference there is between them and the evil monsters and evil cultivators.

Wang Ping'an could only suppress the thought, think about whether there is a good method, after thinking for a long time he still didn't know, so he continued to flaunt wealth, luring those with ill intentions—evil cultivators and monsters—out in the Nine Heads Mountain Market.

Whether it still works!

"It seems we need to find a powerful spell or formation!"

In Wang Ping'an's mind, a flash of inspiration passed, his dark, shiny eyes wandering around, looking at the Wang family's residence, which was much better than other houses.

It was thanks to his pig-dog-not-as-good father Wang Ruhai's blessing!

Only then could such a fine house be built, ranking among the best in the entire Hutou Gou.

He found that his family courtyard was suitable for setting up a formation, although he had placed talisman after talisman, they were only elementary talismans, incapable of harming a powerful great monster like Hu Meiniang.

He still needed a powerful formation!

He did not need to slay Hu Meiniang on the spot; at least he needed to trap her.

To give them a chance to escape!

As for a formation, let alone one that could slay or trap Hu Meiniang, even an ordinary formation is hard to come by; he could only pray to find what he wanted in the Nine Heads Mountain Market.

However. Even if he were lucky and truly encountered a powerful formation in the Nine Heads Mountain Market, he would still have to pay a high price, so he also had to strive to draw talismans.

He also did not know how many talismans he needed to draw to be able to buy a formation.

Wang Ping'an dared not waste time; with a thought, his consciousness entered the World Pearl, where he repeatedly used skills on the thriving spirit fruit trees and spirit rice inside to help them grow quickly.

Only then did Wang Ping'an take out piece after piece of spirit wood from his storage bag, using the skill Papermaking Technique, beginning to refine these spirit woods into spirit paper.

After one piece after another of spirit paper had been refined, he then cut them into talisman paper piece after piece, exhausting the spirit wood, and only then began to draw talismans.

Wang family courtyard.

Xuanqing Daozhang watched Hu Meiniang and Dai Zhishang ride away on a black horse; after their backs disappeared from his sight, he could no longer hold on, with a "plop!" he fell to the ground.

"Daozhang, are you alright?"

Liu Dongzhu jumped in fright, hurried forward to help Xuanqing Daozhang up, but embracing Wang Ping'an left her no free hand.

Don't look at Wang Ping'an having just been born; who knows what he grew up on—cough, cough, it was her milk; his bones grew stronger day by day, and his weight increased rapidly.

Fortunately.

This novel you have arrived

Her body was also recovering—it was unclear whether to say it was recovering or had been strengthened; her body grew better day by day, and her strength grew greater day by day.

Faced with the terrifying weight gain of her family's Ping'an, she felt no strain holding him.

Xuanqing Daozhang waved his hand, refusing Liu Dongzhu's good intention to reach out and pull him up, saying: "Dongzhu, don't worry about me, go attend to your own affairs; I'm sitting here resting, I'll recover soon!"

As he spoke, Xuanqing Daozhang moved his mind, took out a bottle of Qi Refining Pill from his storage bag, opened it, and poured the whole bottle directly into his mouth; feeling it insufficient, he took out another bottle.

He poured in roughly four or five bottles of Qi Refining Pill before Xuanqing Daozhang stopped.

He could break through the bottleneck, his cultivation advancing to early Golden Core, but it was merely luck; his earlier life-and-death battle with Shu Mu, repeatedly performing the General's Ode, could be said to be dancing on the blade's tip.

Half a foot stepped into the Gates of the Underworld!

Fortunately he was slightly superior, he managed to wear Shu Mu down to unconsciousness, but he himself fared poorly, his body covered in wounds.

Although the spiritual energy drawn during his breakthrough earlier treated his body, it only healed superficial injuries; logically, he should at least cultivate for a period before his wounds all over could fully heal.

However.

Seeing Hu Meiniang walk toward Liu Dongzhu, how could he still sit still?

Knowing that Hu Meiniang would not harm Liu Dongzhu, but he worried that Hu Meiniang would see through Wang Ping'an's details, he stopped cultivating, did not continue treating his internal and external injuries all over his body, and stood in front of Hu Meiniang holding his breath.

Stop her from examining Wang Ping'an!

He doesn't even know how long that breath he drew in can keep him going.

Liu Dongzhu stared at Xuanqing Daozhang's frail look, still deeply worried, saying, "Daozhang, you really have nothing wrong?"

"What serious trouble could I have?"

While cultivating, consolidating his realm, and healing his internal and external injuries all over his body, Xuanqing Daozhang put on a relaxed appearance and said, "By the way, I'll have to trouble Dongzhu to help tidy up a room."

"No problem, Daozhang. Your two disciples have been sent by you to learn skills, and there's no one else at Xuanqing Temple. Why don't you just stay at our place from now on?"

Liu Dongzhu was instantly delighted; even if Xuanqing Daozhang didn't say so, she would look for an opportunity to let him stay at her home. Even though Hu Meiniang hasn't done anything to her, she is very worried that Hu Meiniang will come again.

She isn't afraid of death, but she worries that Hu Meiniang will bring harm to her family's Ping'an.
