The Journey of Immortal Cultivation Chapter 497 - 288: Righting a Wrong on the Road

She isn’t a hypocrite, but upon seeing the scene before her, Ning Xiaoxian hesitated. If she had to look at this man, she was afraid she might get sty in her eye. Moreover, she isn’t alone right now, there are so many pairs of masculine eyes in the God Demon Prison watching, isn’t this kind of peeping disrespectful to the girl? If this were in Huaxia, wouldn’t he be put on the defendant’s stand?

At this mont, she slled a faint sweet scent in her nose. This sweet sll was so cloying that it swayed her heart upon slling it. She instinctively held her breath, and then she felt sothing was wrong.

She is nearly an expert at the late-stage of Great Success, ordinary fragrances, let alone the Enchanting Fragrance used by mortals, couldn’t affect her, so how could she feel unwell from just one whiff?

"Poison!" The voices from the God Demon Prison chid in unison again, this ti all three squeaked together.

Ning Xiaoxian, who had already diverted her gaze, looked back again. She always felt that such soulless people should forever plunge into hell and not enter Reincarnation.

At this ti, the man had already taken off his outer clothes. She hesitated no more and gently coughed.

A guilty conscience betrays the thief. What reaction would soone committing a cri in the wilderness have upon suddenly hearing a human cough just as he’s about to succeed? In any case, the man’s face changed drastically, instinctively protecting himself with one hand, while tremblingly throwing a yellowish ring at her with the other.

"Vajra Demon-suppressing Ring!" Ning Xiaoxian recognized the Magic Artifact and couldn’t help but laugh in anger. The Magic Artifact used by this perpetrator was none other than the openly righteous Vajra Demon-suppressing Ring, how ironic is that?

Before the ring reached her, Qi Zai, who was crouching by the side, stood up and pounced out. Relying on its tough demon body, it didn’t evade and directly sent the ring flying. The man was only at mid-stage Foundation Establishnt; Qi Zai would have an easy ti dealing with him. Ning Xiaoxian herself didn’t want to engage with a half-naked man; she found him too disgusting.

Qi Zai, towering over ten feet, was very conspicuous in this patch of grass. The man hadn’t expected a Great Demon to suddenly pop out like this, his face changing as he suddenly maneuvered his Magic Artifact to flee, leaving behind both the Demon-suppressing Ring and the woman on the ground.

His fleeing speed was actually quite fast, disappearing more than ten feet in the blink of an eye.

However, most actions that involve competing in flying speed with Qi Zai are not very sensible. So within a blink of an eye, it caught up with the man, lightly waved its steel wings, and knocked him off his Magic Artifact. Qi Zai was also a skilled fighter; it used its steel claws to grab hold of the man’s Scapula and pinned him down to the ground. The pain from the shoulder made the man dare not move rashly.

Ning Xiaoxian didn’t bother with the man on the ground but went to check on the woman. The potency of the dicine seed really strong; the woman was delirious, uttering indistinct sounds.

Lord White Tiger in the God Demon Prison whistled, mockingly saying, "The young lady is quite blessed."

Ning Xiaoxian snorted coldly, hastily withdrew her hand, fed the poor girl a dicine pill, and helped her get dressed again. Only then did the man on the ground realize there was an even prettier girl before him, and it seed the Big White Bird was also obeying her, so he quickly started begging for rcy, rely claiming a mont of confusion.

"She was originally the one I regard with affection, just that we had a little quarrel recently, so I had no choice but to use so trickery," he pleaded sorrowfully, "I’m really not one of those beasts in human clothing!"

Ning Xiaoxian couldn’t be bothered with him. Her Spirit Pill had extraordinary effects, dissolving instantly upon consumption. In just over a dozen breaths, the flush on the girl’s face gradually faded away, and after a few more breaths, she was able to open her eyes and looked around blankly, and then she let out a scream!

Am I a demon or a ghost, for this girl to let out such a miserable scream upon seeing ? Ning Xiaoxian’s mouth twitched, and she said bluntly, "This man drugged you, wanting to take advantage, but I’ve caught him red-handed."

The girl touched her chest, apparently still feeling embarrassed, naturally believed Ning Xiaoxian, turned her head to the man incredulously and said, "Senior Brother Chen?"

Senior Brother Chen was still pressed down by Qi Zai’s steel claws, looking utterly embarrassed. He struggled to lift his head and said, "Junior Sister Cen, I only admire you and wanted to be with you sooner. You... you mustn’t bla !"

Ning Xiaoxian sighed inside and asked her, "Is what he said true?" Junior Sister Cen’s face flushed, and she twisted her hands together without answering.

"Qi Zai, kill this soulless creature!" She looked up at the sky. It was already approaching nightfall, with the stars and moon about to appear, yet dinner was still not settled.

Before Qi Zai could make a move, both people cried out in unison: "Don’t!"

The reaction of the person on the ground, she naturally ignored, only turned her head to look at Junior Sister Cen. This girl had an ordinary appearance, but a nice figure with a slender waist and long legs, no wonder she caught the eye of a wolf.

Junior Sister Cen hesitantly said: "He... he ans no harm, I beg this junior sister to let him go. He... indeed, he is the one who holds my affection." With that, she glanced at Senior Brother Chen with a complex expression on her face.

Since she said so, Ning Xiaoxian could only wave her hand, letting Qi Zai release the man on the ground. In her eyes, this man didn’t seem like a good person, and there must be sothing fishy with his drugging his female companion. Even if Junior Sister Cen liked him, she should clarify this matter first, otherwise, entrusting her life to soone non-human, she would regret it for life.

But, what does it all have to do with her, Ning Xiaoxian? The blisters on her feet were all walked out by herself. She didn’t have the kind heart of a Saint, if Junior Sister Cen insisted on jumping into the fire pit, she couldn’t pull, nor could she stop her.

"Up to you then." Ning Xiaoxian shrugged her shoulders, but still gave her a final warning, "However, I see your Daoist couple doesn’t seem like a good person, he must be plotting sothing against you. You better be careful yourself." Having finished speaking, regardless of Senior Brother Chen’s suddenly ugly complexion, she leapt onto Qi Zai’s back. The spiritual bird craned its neck and let out a long cry, soaring straight into the clouds!

Inside and outside the God Demon Prison were all with exceptional hearing, before leaving, they heard Senior Brother Chen assuring Junior Sister Cen emphatically: "Junior Sister, my loyalty to you can be witnessed by Heaven and Earth. It’s only because I adore you too much that I resorted to using so thods..." The rest beca inaudible as Qi Zai flew away. Ning Xiaoxian thought that Junior Sister Cen was soft-hearted, and it was likely that she would soon not hold it against him anymore.

The White Tiger inside the God Demon Prison chuckled: "No matter how much ti passes, the nature of the Human Clan really doesn’t change."

She summoned Tu Jin back. With Qi Zai’s speed, they encountered a big city after flying for just under half an hour. This place was mountainous, with mortals cultivating terraced fields on the mountains. The city also was built according to the mountains, with very characteristic architecture. She saw that the houses of the common people were actually layered over each other, much like the barracks of Huaxia, but the roof of one family’s house served as the balcony, pathway, or grain drying area for the family above. In terms of spatial arrangent, it was indeed very reasonable.

Her only purpose in coming here: Lord White Tiger in jail for over ten thousand years, missed the mortal world’s cooked food terribly.

She found a concealed corner and brought the White Tiger out of the God Demon Prison. Qi Zai, still in the form of a small White Bird, perched on her shoulder. Qi Zai had not been in contact with humans for long, but it particularly enjoyed mortal food, especially alcohol. Ever since it tasted the fine wines brewed in Guangcheng Palace, it pestered Ning Xiaoxian daily to use the Nine-Grain Millet grown with her soil to brew wine. Though this bloody bird was gluttonous, the suggestion it made was actually very sensible; if the Nine-Grain Millet was turned into Spiritual Wine for everyone to drink daily, the speed at which everyone’s strength improved would indeed increase.

This matter could be put on the agenda.

While pondering her own thoughts, she took the White Tiger for a thorough tour of the big city. Being far from Central Earth, the local customs were liberal, and the White Tiger’s appearance and stature were both top-notch, attracting the lingering gazes of many noblewon and young ladies. The old tiger also blinked openly at them, causing the girls’ hearts to flutter, and when they looked at Ning Xiaoxian walking by the White Tiger’s side, they felt all kinds of displeasure.

She just walked properly, so why did she manage to acquire so many glares for nothing?

While Ning Xiaoxian was feeling annoyed, the dissatisfied voice of the White Tiger ca from beside her: "Having passed so many big restaurants, why not go in? Look, the one we just passed had the biggest sign and even gilded with gold. Hey, you’re really too stingy. Are you afraid I’ll eat you into poverty?"

Without turning her head she replied: "You still claim to understand human nature? Don’t make laugh my teeth off. If you go into that restaurant to eat, I guarantee you’ll regret it."

White Tiger asked curiously: "How so?"

"You’re looking at the facade, I’m looking at the custor flow. We passed by seven or eight restaurants with nice entrances, but there weren’t many people inside; obviously, the taste is not good."

White Tiger didn’t believe her: "You’re not a local tyrant, so according to you, where in such a big city do you find a good restaurant?"

"Learn a trick or two from your sister." Despite being cunning, this old tiger had been away from the mortal world for too long.

She approached a green-robed rascal basking in the sun, took out a silver ingot and shook it in front of him, catching his eye following the silver back and forth, before she said with a cheerful smile: "I want to find the most authentic and best-tasting eating establishnt in this city, you lead the way. If you lead well, this big silver ingot is yours; if not—" she patted the sturdy arm of the White Tiger next to her, "he will break your legs. How about it?"

Being used for no reason, White Tiger rolled his eyes to Heaven. He was handso but had an imposing figure that looked like he was not to be ssed with. Faced with such a multiple-choice question, even a fool would know how to choose. (To be continued.
