The danger was finally lifted. The people of the Dragon and Tiger Sect, who had been under a cloud just a moment ago and felt that they were certain to die, were stunned for a long time before they realized what was happening. They immediately cried with joy, hugged each other and cheered.
They had been cultivating peacefully in the sect and had never encountered any dangerous situations. For the first time, they felt that death was so close to them.
After the ecstasy of surviving the disaster slowly settled down, Luo Xuyuan remembered their saviors, the group of people from the Xuyang Sect.
"Brother Chen, thank you for your rescue. Your great kindness will be unforgettable for us in the Dragon and Tiger Sect!" Luo Xuyuan made a bow for Chen Feiyu seriously, and said with a choked voice.
Their leader brother died under the mouth of the giant centipede. It would be great if they could meet the people of Xuyang Sect earlier.
Chen Feiyu nodded and said, "It was Xiao Lang who decided to save you. If you want to thank him, just thank him."
He said, patting the shoulder of Wei Gaolang who was standing next to him.
"Huh?" Wei Gaolang didn't expect that Senior Brother Chen would bring him out. Facing the grateful looks of everyone in the Dragon and Tiger Sect, he scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "Well... we should help each other, and besides, you guys are better than each other. The group of people from Luoyue Sect are much better."
At least I know how to be grateful, Wei Gaolang secretly added in his heart. Compared with this, his impression of the people of Luoyue Sect was even worse.
If there is really no comparison, there will be no harm.
Jun Xiaomo also came over, raised the corners of his lips, and said, "Yes, if you hadn't thought of diverting trouble to the east but letting us leave at the critical moment, we might not have gone as hard as we could." Save you."
Luo Xuyuan's shout made Jun Xiaomo see the integrity and simplicity in his character, so she didn't mind speeding up a few steps to save him.
Everyone in Lintian Peak has always admired upright people.
This was the first time in his life that Luo Xuyuan was praised by a beautiful woman like this. He couldn't help but touch his head and grinned, but the tips of his ears showed a hint of pink.
"Speaking of which, you are really powerful. I didn't expect you to be able to defeat that centipede with just your level 11 or lower Qi training skills." Another disciple of the Dragon and Tiger Sect sighed with admiration.
"This is the contribution of Junior Sister Xiaomo. If it weren't for her, I'm afraid we wouldn't have won so easily." The person from Lintian Peak explained with a smile.
"Oh? Does it have anything to do with Miss Jun? Why do you say that?" People from the Longhu Sect gathered around him curiously.
Jun Xiaomo won first place in the junior group competition. This is something they all know. However, compared to the intermediate and senior groups, the strength of those in the junior group is still too low. Therefore, they No one expected that Jun Xiaomo would be the "soul figure" in this team.
"Because Junior Sister Xiaomo taught us some special combat methods, our overall strength will be strengthened."
The people at Lintian Peak didn't talk about those team fighting skills in detail. After all, if you don't see it with your own eyes or try it yourself, you probably won't be able to appreciate the power of these skills.
The people from the Dragon and Tiger Sect nodded in understanding. Luo Xuyuan thought for a while and asked everyone at Lintian Peak: "I wonder if my friends at Lintian Peak would like us to follow you in the next competition?"
"Follow us?" Chen Feiyu didn't expect that Luo Xuyuan would consider this.
Luo Xuyuan smiled bitterly and said: "To be honest, I was not the leader of this team, but our leader was killed by the giant centipede just now. We are left without a leader and we really don't know what to do next. How to go down the road. Although my cultivation level is the same as yours, Brother Chen, and I have reached the eleventh level of Qi training, I have almost no experience in leading a team to fight. If I encounter something like this again With today’s situation, I’m afraid we really won’t be able to go back alive.”
Luo Xuyuan and the others didn't think about getting good results in this competition. They just wanted to show their faces and get some small rewards back.
Who would have thought that on the first day, they would encounter such a critical situation and almost lose their lives here.
"Of course, since we are following you, we can transfer all the scores to you. I just hope you can take us away together."
Luo Xuyuan expressed his greatest sincerity. He would rather not give up a single point, and only hoped to lead all the remaining Dragon and Tiger Sect disciples out alive.
Jun Xiaomo saw integrity and sincerity in Luo Xuyuan's eyes, which inevitably reminded her of Ye Xiuwen, who was still missing.
She felt a little touched in her heart, then she smiled and said: "Brother Luo is serious, you can give the scores however you want. I believe the judges will make a fair decision. Since you are willing to follow us, Let’s do this, okay, let’s teach you how to improve the overall combat effectiveness, so that when we encounter danger, we can handle it together and reduce the possibility of casualties.”
"If this is really possible, then thank you so much!" Luo Xuyuan said excitedly. Then, he thought of something and glanced at Chen Feiyu hesitantly - Chen Feiyu is the leader of this Xuyang Sect team, right? Can Jun Xiaomo make the decision
Chen Feiyu nodded and said, "Junior Sister Xiaomo's decision is also our decision."
"Thank you, thank you very much." Luo Xuyuan thanked him excitedly again.
"You're welcome. In this dangerous competition area, we are just helping each other." Jun Xiaomo said with a smile.
In this way, everyone from the Dragon and Tiger Sect merged into the team of the Xuyang Sect. After encountering a series of things later, they were extremely grateful for their decision at this time.
"Gulu." Suddenly, a disciple of the Dragon and Tiger Sect felt a drum in his stomach. He touched his empty stomach and said embarrassedly: "I originally wanted to have lunch at noon today, but I didn't expect that... The giant centipede suddenly jumped out, and we couldn't eat it."
"In that case, let's repair it here before leaving." Chen Feiyu suggested.
No one has any objection to this.
The people from the Dragon and Tiger Sect washed their hands, sat down, and took out some dry food from the storage ring. After measuring it, they broke the whole piece of dry food into two halves and stuffed the remaining half back into the storage ring.
They drank the water, bit into the dry and hard food, and started eating.
"You only eat so little." Wei Gaolang looked at the dry food in their hands and asked in surprise.
Luo Xuyuan smiled bitterly, shook his head, and said nothing.
The giant centipede suddenly jumped out, frightening them all. Many of them dropped a large piece of dry food they just took out for lunch today. If they don't want to be so hungry that they don't have the strength to fight in the next two days, they'd better do it. Just save some food.
Even if this meal is not very filling, it is still better than starving to death in the future.
Although Luo Xuyuan did not elaborate, Wei Gaolang also guessed something. He thought for a while, took out some of the dry food in the storage ring, and said, "Let's all eat together, there may be a lot of fighting later. .”
"This is not possible!" Luo Xuyuan refused, "You have already taken good care of us. There is no need for this. Let's save some food. The dry food in the storage ring can still last for three days."
Jun Xiaomo heard the conversation here. She thought about it, stood up, walked to the giant centipede's body, and walked around it.
"Senior sister, what are you doing here?" After Wei Gaolang noticed that Jun Xiaomo was missing, he trotted to catch up and asked, "Well... it stinks!"
He pinched his nose in disgust - I don't know what this giant centipede grew up on, and what species it was. Even though it looked weird, after the tentacles were cut off, the wound still emitted waves of stench. !
"Nothing, I think I should have seen this kind of centipede. If I guessed correctly, the meat on its abdomen is edible." Jun Xiaomo said thoughtfully.
"Wha... what?! Senior sister, are you kidding me?! It stinks like this, can't you eat it without being poisoned?!" Wei Gaolang was almost frightened by Jun Xiaomo's "whimsical" and hurriedly gave up the idea. .
"Don't you know that the meat of many spiritual beasts or magical beasts can be eaten?" Jun Xiaomo glanced at Wei Gaolang lightly.
"I know, but..." Wei Gaolang hesitated, "But only those who look normal can eat it. This kind of..."
To be honest, he couldn't eat it.
Jun Xiaomo chuckled, patted him on the shoulder, then took out a Wind Control Talisman from the storage ring, put it on the palm of his hand, and waved it towards the centipede—
The huge whirlwind picked up the centipede and lifted its body upward from one side.
"Boom!" This giant centipede turned over on its side.
The movement here attracted the attention of others, and they also followed. When they heard Wei Gaolang say that Jun Xiaomo wanted to eat the meat from the centipede's abdomen, they couldn't help but look constipated.
In their hearts, even if they starve to death, it is better than eating this meat, right? Because it's really scary, and it's too... stinky!
The only good thing is that the centipede's abdomen is very flat and does not have the dense tentacles and eyes on its back. Otherwise, just looking at those eyes would be unappetizing.
Jun Xiaomo asked several senior brothers to use swords to cut off the centipede's feet, and then with one force, he opened the outer shell of its abdomen.
The shell did not contain the green poison and disgusting smell that others imagined, but a thin layer of pink flesh that spread from the centipede's head to its tail.
"That's it." Jun Xiaomo was glad that he remembered correctly, and together with several senior brothers, he tore off the thin layer of flesh from the centipede's abdomen.
Even though it is very thin, the portion is quite large after being torn off. After all, this centipede is so big.
However, no matter how strong it is, there is no denying that it was torn from a giant, weird-looking centipede.
No one wants to touch it.
"Senior...Sister, do you really want to eat?" Wei Gaolang asked tangledly.
"Eat, it took so much effort to get it down. What will you eat if you don't eat it? Aren't the people of the Dragon and Tiger Sect not enough dry food? They must have some extra things to replenish their physical strength. Otherwise, how can they survive? The third day?" Jun Xiaomo said while checking the quality of the meat.
Knowing that Jun Xiaomo considered collecting centipede meat because they didn't have enough dry food, the people of the Dragon and Tiger Sect were a little ashamed. They didn't care about being disgusted, and hurriedly came over and said: "Miss Jun, thank you, give these to us, you can just eat solid food."
Jun Xiaomo glanced at them curiously and said, "Do you know how to eat it?"
Luo Xuyuan was stunned by her question and said hesitantly: "Isn't this... roasted to eat?"
Jun Xiaomo smiled helplessly, shook his head, and said, "If you really bake it and eat it directly, you will be poisoned."
Everyone from Longhu Sect and Xuyang Sect: "..."
It turns out to be really poisonous? !
