Lu Ye now has ntal Consciousness as his anchor. Although the range he can perceive is not very large, if he focuses on exploring, he can't miss any movent within a mile.
Shen Xiaomao indeed ca alone this ti and did not notify anyone.
"Speak, what do you want from ?" Shen Xiaomao began.
"First, I want to thank you for last ti..."
"Stop!" Shen Xiaomao backed away a few steps as if her tail had been stepped on, looking at Lu Ye with vigilance, "What last ti? There was no last ti, nothing happened last ti!"
Their faction stances were opposing. Last ti, when a large group from Ten Thousand Demons Ridge gathered, prepared to besiege the Great Reversal Valley Spirit Ground, she couldn't bear it and tipped off Lu Ye, which already went against her stance.
Though Lu Ye did not leave early due to her tip-off and instead made a fool out of Ten Thousand Demons Ridge, Shen Xiaomao definitely didn't want to ntion it again. If others found out, she would be undeniably guilty of colluding with the enemy.
Understanding, Lu Ye fell silent.
"Did you call out just to say that?" Shen Xiaomao looked at Lu Ye speechlessly.
"Of course... not!"
"Then what do you want to do? Let make it clear, I won't do anything that harms Ten Thousand Demons Ridge, and you better not think of forcing . Public is public, and private is private; we need to distinguish this."
"Don't worry, I won't make you do anything difficult. I just want you to deliver an item to soone."
Shen Xiaomao was puzzled: "What do you want to deliver, and to whom?"
Lu Ye took out an audio transmission stone and tossed it to Shen Xiaomao.
Shen Xiaomao caught it, curious, but since audio transmission stones were not available in Nine Provinces, she couldn't determine the specific use of the item in her hand.
"There's soone called Ying Wuji at your Gushan City Pass; deliver this to him."
"Ying Wuji?" Shen Xiaomao was a bit surprised, "Do you know him?"
From Lu Ye's tone, it sounded like not only did they know each other, but there seed to be so unspeakable secrets; otherwise, why would he ask her to deliver an item?
Her curiosity burned fiercely as she looked at Lu Ye, inquiringly: "What's between you two? Ying Wuji isn't a spy for your Haotian Alliance, is he?"
Lu Ye said lightly, "He is the most core disciple of this generation in Senluo Hall. Do you think soone like that would be a spy for the Haotian Alliance?"
"True enough..."
"As for our relationship... if he wishes to tell you, you can ask him."
Shen Xiaomao laughed: "Are you so sure that I'll help you with this?"
"I wasn't sure, but since you ca, I am sure now."
Shen Xiaomao snorted, but before she could continue speaking, an object flew towards her.
She quickly caught it and discovered it was a jade vial in her hand. Not knowing what's inside, she couldn't help but snort coldly: "After all, I'm from Ten Thousand Demons Ridge, and you're from the Haotian Alliance. We shouldn't et in private. I can't possibly help you with this favor; I have my own principles, and you can't bribe ."
"Soul Cleansing Water." Lu Ye casually uttered three words.
"What?"
"The vial contains three drops of Soul Cleansing Water as your reward for helping this ti. All you need to do is deliver the item to Ying Wuji; nothing else is required of you."
Shen Xiaomao looked at Lu Ye in shock, wearing an expression that said, "My experience is limited, don't deceive ."
Soul Cleansing Water. That's a treasure even Divine Sea Realm strong cultivators would envy, and it's extrely rare. Soone at the True Lake Realm like her has no ans to obtain it.
She is currently in the True Lake Realm, and the next step is Divine Sea. However, she knows her own aptitude well, and achieving Divine Sea in this lifeti is bound to be very difficult. But if she has three drops of Soul Cleansing Water...
Forcing down her inner excitent, she opened the bottle cap, and a refreshing fragrance imdiately surrounded her nose.
Feeling refreshed!
Shen Xiaomao had never seen Soul Cleansing Water and didn't know if the vial contained it, but even if it wasn't Soul Cleansing Water, it was surely a treasure beneficial to the psyche!
She grabbed it and tucked it into her ample bosom.
"Principles are ant to be broken; I'll certainly help you with this favor!" She assud an air of righteous dignity.
Internally, she sighed. It wasn't that her stance was weak; it was that Lu Ye offered too much.
"Very well!" Lu Ye nodded with satisfaction.
"But there's still one problem..." Shen Xiaomao had a troubled expression.
"Go ahead."
"You also know that Ying Wuji, being from Senluo Hall, is an inherently arrogant person. He was okay before, but recently, I don't know what's been bothering him; he's been sullen all the ti. I t him the other day, and when I greeted him, he ignored . I have no problem delivering the item to him, but what if he refuses it?"
"If he dares to refuse, just say one thing to him."
"What?"
"Righteous Blood Flows Forever!"
Shen Xiaomao looked at him with deep aning: "And you say Ying Wuji is not a spy for your Haotian Alliance!"
There's even a code phrase!
Lu Ye was too lazy to explain anything.
A mont later, Shen Xiaomao left, and Lu Ye returned the way he ca.
Gushan City Pass, Shen Xiaomao returned familiarly and, following the mories in her mind, walked toward the southeast corner of a cluster of buildings.
Ying Wuji's residence was over there.
Although she had long hair, she also had her own judgnt. Whatever Lu Ye asked her to do this ti, it would undoubtedly harm the interests of Ten Thousand Demons Ridge.
No matter the relationship between Lu Ye and Ying Wuji, she shouldn't pass this ssage. As she told Lu Ye, public matters are public, private matters are private. If she couldn't distinguish this much, then her years of cultivation would be in vain.
But the temptation of three drops of Soul Cleansing Water was too great... she could only agree.
As for taking the items without fulfilling the task and pocketing the Soul Cleansing Water, that was impossible.
Anyway, she had to ensure Ying Wuji wasn't an undercover agent for the Haotian Alliance. If the relationship between the two was rely simple acquaintance, then things were easier. As long as Ying Wuji didn't act against the interests of the Ten Thousand Demons Ridge faction, everything could be settled.
Having made up her mind, she hadn't reached her destination when she saw Ying Wuji's figure ahead.
Shen Xiaomao was delighted and hurriedly approached, gracefully saluting: "Senior Brother Ying."
Ying Wuji had a troubled expression, subconsciously responded with a word, and was about to pass by.
Not expecting Shen Xiaomao to turn and block his path.
"What is it?" Ying Wuji frowned and asked.
If it were before, he wouldn't be so impatient when such a beautiful junior sister blocked his way. But recently, there were too many botherso matters, and he had no mood to chat with beautiful junior sisters.
Among other things, a lot of people died in the last Gushan City siege and defense battle. The Cloud River Realm cultivators he took out to collect Earth Fire didn't survive.
Others were unclear about how those Fire Spirit Race mbers ca about, but he knew. It involved his matters and Lu Yiye's matters!
But these things couldn't be revealed to others, otherwise his future prospects would be bleak.
Moreover, once he knew Lu Ye was at the opposite Cangyan Mountain Pass, Ying Wuji realized it was a troubleso place unfit for long staying, lest he'd be hard by that scourge sooner or later.
He initially wanted to find a chance to transfer away from this place, but due to a lot of casualties recently, Gushan City lacked manpower now, and the matter of transferring couldn't be discussed.
Silently deciding, he absolutely wouldn't leave Gushan City in the future!
I'd stay here and not show my face. No matter how capable Lu Yiye was, he couldn't affect !
Recently, his mind was too jumbled, and even cultivation didn't interest him much. It was during this chaotic state that Shen Xiaomao blocked his path.
"Senior Brother Ying, I have sothing to tell you. Can we find a quieter place?" Shen Xiaomao spoke.
Ying Wuji glanced up and down at her, didn't know what he'd thought, but his gloomy mood slightly eased. No matter the reason, a beautiful junior sister seeking him out and wanting a quiet place to chat was always thought-provoking.
I, Ying Wuji… can still stand up!
But matters between n and won should be avoided; he must clarify matters with the junior sister in front.
After a brief hesitation, Ying Wuji nodded, "Follow ."
A mont later, he led Shen Xiaomao into his residence, triggering various formations.
While Ying Wuji was considering how to gently yet politely decline, Shen Xiaomao suddenly handed him sothing: "Soone entrusted to pass this to you!"
Ying Wuji, out of instinct, glanced at it, and upon seeing the item in Shen Xiaomao's hand, he instantly retreated backward explosively, raising his hand to grasp the curved knife at his waist, showing a ready-to-fight stance.
Shen Xiaomao was dumbfounded, looking at Ying Wuji with spirit force activated around him, she gently called, "Senior Brother Ying?"
Ying Wuji's gaze flickered between her and the transmission stone, a nightmare-like na flashed through his mind, and his eyelids twitched violently: "This thing... where did you get it?"
Shen Xiaomao didn't recognize the transmission stone, but Ying Wuji surely did.
This was the tool he used to contact Lu Ye when the Unparalleled Continent was shattered. Only Lu Ye among those he contacted could refine this item.
So he couldn't understand how Shen Xiaomao had a transmission stone!
Suddenly recalling sothing, he beca vigilant: "Who asked you to pass this to ?"
Shen Xiaomao aningfully said, "Senior Brother Ying, who do you think it might be?"
Ying Wuji's eyes narrowed, "Are you from the Haotian Alliance?"
Shen Xiaomao was dumbfounded. Originally, she suspected Ying Wuji was a dark agent of the Haotian Alliance, but now she was being suspected, and quickly said, "Of course not, Senior Brother Ying. What are you talking about? I'm telling you, you can't say such things indiscriminately; it would be bad if soone heard."
"Then how do you have this item? And you even have contact with that person?"
As for who that person was, Ying Wuji truly didn't want to ntion the na, it pained his heart...
"There are so unspeakable reasons. Anyway, he entrusted to pass this item to you, Senior Brother Ying. I think you are from the Haotian Alliance."
"Nonsense!" Ying Wuji shouted angrily, "How could I be from the Haotian Alliance."
"Swear by Heaven's Augury and I'll believe you!" Shen Xiaomao stared at him, silently deciding that if Ying Wuji didn't swear by Heaven's Augury, she'd imdiately spread the news.
But unexpectedly, as soon as she finished her sentence, Ying Wuji truly swore by Heaven's Augury...
