âThen, I will receive it. Thank you.â After hesitating for a moment, Meng Qi accepted the formula. She took out another bamboo slip, copied the rest of Four Orders And Four Seasons Arrayâs patterns, then held the slip with both hands towards Shen Zhengheng. âThis is the complete patterns of the same set of the array found on your discipleâs back. Although they look different, in fact, the effect is almost the same. They may look fancy and confusing, but these arrays are not very powerful.â Meng Qi subconsciously used the authorâs comment.
âI understand.â Shen Zhengheng also accepted the bamboo slip.
For medical cultivators, this kind of transaction was commonplace. The Medical Cultivators Conferenceâs existence was also to promote the exchange of knowledge between medical cultivators from all over Three Thousand Worlds, to prevent the tragedy where many inheritances were cut off by a sectâs total demise.
Of course, each sect still had its own secret inheritance. In fact, in the current Three Thousand World, both sword cultivators and spell cultivators placed more emphasis on keeping the inheritance of their sects secret. However, medical cultivators were weak in self-protection ability. After suffering several catastrophes, some of those sect leaders had become more open-minded.
Like Shen Zhengheng, even though he just gave away one of their sectâs exclusive medicine formula, he didnât feel reluctant.
âSect Leader Shen should take a good rest. We are leaving now.â After nodding politely, Meng Qi walked out of the door with Su Junmo and Sikong Xing.
âFinally, itâs over.â Outside the room, Sikong Xing stretched her body. She looked towards the horizon. The morning sun had been rising, and the eastern sky was already bright.
Meng Qi also loosened her shoulders: âThank you for your hard work today, Xingxing.â She then smiled meaningfully at Su Junmo: âBrother Su, you too. Today is a great harvest. Iâm very satisfied!â
Su Junmo ââŠâ
Why does he suddenly feel uneasy?
The way Meng Qi looks at him, why does it make his back cold?
And why does Meng Qi suddenly call him âBrother Suâ?
She always calls his name directly. Could it beâŠ
Sikong Xing leaned forwards and took Meng Qiâs arm. Seeing Meng Qi smiled, she asked curiously: âSo, what did you get at Beyond The Heaven that makes you so happy?â
âUmâŠâ Meng Qi smiled, but didnât answer. Instead, she turned her head at Su Junmo again: âCan I tell her?â
âTellâŠtell what?!â Su Junmo almost bit his tongue. âWhat do you mean?â
Meng Qi pursed her lips and chuckled. Her eyes were drifting. She had a beautiful appearance, just like a typical seventeen years old girl. But her smile now made her look more her age. Usually, Meng Qi was so calm and unperturbed, so Su Junmo often forgot her young age and low cultivation level.
Meng Qi was smiling sweetly. Standing in the courtyard, the light from the morning sun shone upon her. Coating her beautiful face with a soft, gentle light. Even her smile seemed to be mixed with honey, revealing a bit of unusual shyness.
âThenâŠletâs not talk about it.â Meng Qi said gently to Sikong Xing. âWhen Brother Su allows me to talk, you will be the first person I tell.â
âOkayâŠâ Sikong Xing pouted. She glared at Su Junmo dissatisfiedly.
Su Junmo ââŠâ
He really didnât understand. The Lord cared so much about Meng Qi, so why did the Lord always use a roundabout way to help her?
Like this time. The Lord was an expert in arrays, far above the others. Why didnât he teach Meng Qi himself instead of leading her to the Third Elderâs library pavilion? Moreover, he even forbid his name to be mentioned in front of Meng Qi.
Meng Qi also never mentioned the Lord either. But after returning from Third Elderâs library, she suddenly became shyâŠ.
Su Junmo was totally at a loss. Meng Qi didnât react like this because of the Third Elder, right?
As the celestial demon white fox, although Su Junmo had never fallen in love, he had seen plenty of examples!
Third Elderâs library stored countless books. From the official history to wild gossips, biographies of powerful figures in the three realms, all kinds of personal notesâŠwhen Su Junmo was a kid, he also liked that place.
No way!
Su Junmo couldnât understand. What exactly was happening between Meng Qi and the Lord?!
He really couldnât understand!!
While Su Junmo was busy battling with his own curiosity, Meng Qi had already walked away with Sikong Xing, arm in arm.
Pei Mufeng walked on Meng Qiâs other side, talking to her in a low voice: âSo Li Cheâs poison is actually easy to solve?â Pei Mufeng pondered, âAccording to your statement, the preparator merely used a trick to confuse people, but this person is actually not so skillful.â
âNot necessarily.â Meng Qi replied, âWhoever did it, they can use Four Orders And Four Seasons Array, and probably know about other arrays too. They may use similar methods to attack medical cultivators around Xingluo City again.â She paused. âYou must be careful.â
âI see.â Pei Mufeng nodded.
âI think this person is deliberate, ah.â Sikong Xing said from the side. âXingluo City is hosting the Medical Cultivators Conference. All the top medical sects and medical cultivators from all over Three Thousand Worlds are gathering here. However, they are made helpless against low-level poisons. If this matter spreads, what will people think?â
Meng Qi and Pei Mufeng looked at each other.
Sikong Xing continued, âAt that time, the preparator will finally show upâŠMeng Qiqi, didnât you say that if a Foundation Establishment cultivator used detoxifying spells, they wouldnât trigger the array?â She rolled her eyes quickly. ââŠand then, in front of the gathering of medical cultivators, this person will let a Foundation Establishment cultivator detoxify Xue Lingfeng and the othersâŠtsk!! The large medical sects would have their reputation severely beaten. This person isnât doing something totally horrendous, but what they do is still causing chaos!â
