Chapter 21: Burden

On the second day, Ye Xinghe continued to move forward and soon came to a rocky beach.

At this time, there was a noisy sound behind him.

Ye Xinghe turned around and saw a team of five people, three men and two women, coming from behind him.

The one walking in the front was a woman.

The woman was tall and quite cold, wearing a blue suit, which outlined her figure even more perfectly.

After seeing Ye Xinghe, several people showed a touch of surprise on their faces.

Ye Xinghe glanced and saw that the cultivation level of the woman in the blue skirt should be around the fifth level of the body tempering realm.

At this age, her strength is not weak.

The woman in blue smiled and said, "Are you also from Lingyun Sect?"

Ye Xinghe nodded.

"You must have accepted the task of picking the Seven-Star Spirit Moon Bamboo, right?"

The woman in blue said, "We are all from Lingyun Sect, we should support each other, why don't you go with us?"

"We also accepted that task, and if you follow us, you will be much less dangerous."

She was very sincere and straightforward.

Ye Xinghe was touched, but still a little hesitant.

A muffled voice sounded: "Yes, brother, just follow us!" "Our boss has made many advance preparations to complete this task."

Ye Xinghe looked up.

The person who spoke, standing behind the woman in the blue skirt, was actually a giant.

He was almost two meters tall, with shoulders as broad and thick as a door panel, and looked strong and powerful.

Seeing Ye Xinghe looking at him, the tall giant smiled honestly and scratched the back of his head.

"If you don't go with us, it's easy to die on the road."

Although he spoke without restraint, he had no malice and was thinking about Ye Xinghe.

Ye Xinghe saw it and felt a lot of goodwill in his heart, and was about to nod.

"You said let him follow us?

Have you agreed with me?"

A sneer came.

A man walked up, he looked Ye Xinghe up and down, and then sneered disdainfully.

"You are alone, weak, and you dare to accept that mission?

You simply don't know how to write the word death!"

Ye Xinghe frowned slightly.

The person who spoke was about seventeen or eighteen years old. He looked pretty good, but his eyes were a little frivolous, with a hint of pride on his face.

Ye Xinghe saw at a glance that his strength was the strongest among the five.

The sixth level of the Body Tempering Realm.

The frivolous young man looked at the woman in blue and shouted, "Qiu Jiangxue, why do we have to bring such a burden?"

The woman in the blue skirt was named Qiu Jiangxue.

"That's right."

A short young man in black clothes next to him said with a flattering look on his face: "Qiu Jiangxue, Senior Brother Fan Botao is busy with work. This time, I agreed to accompany you to complete this task because of your face.

"You brought such a burden with you halfway." He looked at Ye Xinghe with disdain: "What do you mean?"

"Senior Brother Fan, don't you agree?"

He looked at Fan Botao with a flattering face.

In the team of five, the last one was a woman.

She looked at Fan Botao with admiration in her eyes and nodded.

One of these two people is Fan Botao's follower, and the other admires Fan Botao.

Qiu Jiangxue approached the three people and whispered, "The aura of this young man is erratic and weak. I feel that he should be seriously injured or disabled, and his cultivation has dropped sharply."

"Therefore, we want to find the Seven-Star Spirit Moon Bamboo to exchange for elixirs and fight to the death."

She whispered, "We are all from the Lingyun Sect, and it is not easy to practice."

"If we can find one more Seven-Star Spirit Moon Bamboo, what's the harm in giving him one?

At least it gives him a chance to live."

The strong man also said in a muffled voice, "Yes, yes!"

Ye Xinghe listened and shook his head slowly.

These people actually thought that their strength was disabled, so they fought to the death.

Ye Xinghe was also a little moved.

Qiu Jiangxue is really kind-hearted.

Fan Botao was displeased and snorted, "Okay, but let's make a deal."

"If something happens to this burden, I won't save him."

From what he said, it seemed that whoever he didn't save would die.

After hearing this, Ye Xinghe just sneered in his heart: "Who do you think you are?

Why do I need you to save me?"

Qiu Jiangxue introduced Ye Xinghe.

The tall and strong man was named Zhao Shan.

The frivolous boy was Fan Botao, and Fan Botao's follower was named Shi Yuchen.

The woman who admired him was named Xiahou Shi.

She asked again: "Little brother, what's your name?"

Ye Xinghe smiled: "Ye Xinghe."

"Ye Xinghe?"

Everyone had different expressions after hearing this.

Shi Yuchen smiled softly, looking gloating: "Brother Fan, you are right, he is indeed a burden."

"This is a celebrity in our Lingyun Sect!"

Fan Botao frowned: "Why haven't I heard of it?"

"You have been practicing outside before, and just returned recently."

Shi Yuchen looked gloating, covering his mouth and said: "It is said that his cultivation was abolished not long ago. He was a little genius before, but now he is a real waste."

"I see."

After hearing this, Fan Botao and Xiahou Shi looked at each other with more contempt.

Soon, a day passed.

In the evening, Qiu Jiangxue found a cliff.

Under the cliff, there was an open space, with huge rocks everywhere, and no grass grew within a radius of hundreds of meters.

Everyone camped here.

It got dark quickly, and five small tents were set up on several huge rocks.

In the middle, there was a warm bonfire.

Two hours later, in Ye Xinghe's tent.

He suddenly opened his eyes, breathed a sigh of relief, and walked out of the tent.
