Chapter Eighty: Beauty Causes Trouble

  Zhao Duo didn't expect the old man to be so easy-going, and he happily asked: "May I ask, senior, is there really a passage leading out of Death Island at the bottom of this Astral Abyss?"

  The old man heard this, and a sharp glint flashed in his eyes. His wise gaze stared intently at Zhao Shuo. In that brief moment, Zhao Shuo felt as if he had been completely seen through by the old man, as if he had no secrets in front of him.

  Fortunately, that feeling only lasted for a moment, and when the old man's wise eyes became dull, the uncomfortable feeling also disappeared.

  Thinking the old man wouldn't answer his question, Zhao Zhuo was pulling Bai Jingchu away when he suddenly heard the old man's voice say: "The Starfall Abyss is both a path to life and a path to death; if you charge out of it, you'll live, but if you can't charge out, you'll die!"

  Zhao Huo was overjoyed upon hearing this, which undoubtedly told Zhao Huo that the Astral Abyss indeed had a passage leading out of Death Island, but wanting to leave would definitely be fraught with danger.

  Once again, thanks to the old man who had long since disappeared without a trace. This time, because there was no harassment from the Skull Guards, although leaving the Meteorite Abyss required passing through a forbidden zone, the two of them used their magical treasures to protect themselves and safely exited the range of the Meteorite Abyss's forbidden area.

  When the feeling of restraint on their bodies disappeared, the two of them couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

  What appeared before the two of them was a desolate and barren mountain, with sparse trees that seemed lifeless and dull. Compared to the Jiuhua Secret Realm, it felt like they had entered a ghostly realm.

  He looked around and temporarily determined that there was no danger. Zhao Xiao furrowed his brow and said, "I don't know what this place is or if it's going to be dangerous."

  Bai Jing shook her head and said, "After I entered the Island of Death, I was only staying within a very small range, and I had never been here before. Even the Astral Abyss was something I occasionally heard people mention."

  A strange cry came over and suddenly drew the attention of both people away.

  Following the direction of the sound, the two saw a disheveled person with unkempt hair making strange cries, and behind him, a skeletal beast resembling a wild boar was gaining speed in pursuit.

  However, that person reacted extremely sensitively, like a groundhog using the terrain to assist him, and was always able to avoid the skeletal beast behind him in times of danger.

  As the man approached a flat area, he suddenly jumped up and crossed over it, shouting loudly: "Damn big brother, Bone Beast is coming, get ready to fight!"

  As soon as the man's voice fell, a huge bone beast plunged into a massive pit in the ground, its tough skeleton almost shattered at once.

  At the same time, a figure burst out from behind a rock, with a fist shining with light, surrounded by an aura, clearly having achieved the great perfection of body refinement.

  When the fist heavily smashed onto the Bone Beast's body, it didn't struggle for long before turning into a pile of shattered bones. The person who had previously lured the Bone Beast jumped into the pit and searched around, finally finding a Yuan Dan.

  "Just listen to that person laugh and say: 'Big brother, this time it should be your turn to lure the Bone Beast over. After I absorb this pearl, I'll go hunt another Bone Beast.'"

  The person known as Big Brother jumped out and said, "Hmph, after you absorb this bead, it's almost time to enter the Yuan Dan stage. Next time, we can summon a slightly stronger Bone Beast."

  When Zhao Zhuo saw the two of them clearly, a look of shock and joy appeared on his face, and even the hand holding Bai Jing's hand couldn't help but tremble slightly.

  Bai Jingying obviously felt Zhao Zhuo's abnormality, and his heart moved: "Zhao Zhuo, could it be that these two brothers are the Jingsheng and Jingmie brothers you mentioned?"

  Zhao Duo happily nodded, suddenly appearing in front of the two brothers, excitedly laughing loudly: "Jing Bu Si, Jing Bu Mie, you two stinky brats are still alive, it's really great!"

  Jing Bu Si and Jing Bu Mie suddenly saw Zhao Shuo appear before them, they were momentarily stunned, their faces revealing an expression of disbelief, they reached out to pinch each other, then jumped up and down shouting: "It's not a dream, it really isn't a dream!"

  Zhao Duo stretched out his hand and gave the two a punch: "Of course it's not a dream"

  Jing may not die, Jing may not perish after all is just an eighteen or nineteen year old boy, although now after three years of life and death training has matured a lot, but when seeing Zhao Zhuo, the two still involuntarily burst into tears.

  After a while, Jing Buxiao and his brother finally stopped, and Zhao Zhuo introduced Bai Qingjie to the two of them. The two men's address of "Young Madam" made Bai Qingjie blush with shame.

  With a faint smile, Zhao Zhuo rushed towards the two and said: "You two have actually reached the state of Tempering Body Great Perfection. It seems that you have been working hard to cultivate for these few years."

  Upon hearing Zhao Zhuo's words, the two of them couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile and say: "Big Brother, don't tease us brothers anymore. Now that we've just barely achieved the Great Circle of Body Tempering, there's simply no way for us to go save Qing Yi Sister!"

  Zhao Duo's face showed a shocked expression and he said: "What? You actually have news of Jing Qingyi, quickly tell me, where is she now?"

  "We appeared in this ghostly place after getting separated from the boss, luckily I and Bu Xie are twin brothers with a certain spiritual connection, it was hard to find each other. However, after searching for thousands of miles around, we couldn't find you and Qing Yi sister. We two realized that this place can't absorb the heaven and earth's original energy, even cultivation is impossible. Luckily one day, my brother and I accidentally saw a group of people hunting bone beasts and finding a kind of bead from the bone beast's corpse to cultivate by absorbing the energy in the bead. So we brothers carefully hunted bone beasts to find the round bead for cultivation."

  Although Jing Bu Xie said it simply, Zhao Shu could also imagine that at the beginning, their cultivation was so poor that they might not even be able to kill ordinary Bone Beasts, and yet they had managed to survive until now, which was practically a miracle.

  Jing Bu said, taking over the conversation: "It was just half a year ago that my brother and I inadvertently discovered that five thousand miles away, there is a mountain called Qingfeng Mountain. A group of people have gathered on this mountain, and they often capture some lone cultivators. The men are used as cannon fodder to lure bone beasts, while the women...are humiliated. Among those captured, it seems that Qingyi sister was also among them."

  Zhao Zhuo heard this and couldn't help but roar with anger: "What? Jing Qingyi has actually fallen into the hands of these evil people?"

  Seeing Zhao Zhuo get angry, Jing Buxiao hastily said: "Boss, don't worry, Big Sister's appearance is not bad, it's said that those people are keeping her to present to their leader."

  "Leader? Who is that?" Zhao Huo asked in confusion.

  Jing Buxiao said: "I heard he's a dwarf, but those people from Qingfeng Mountain all call him Master Lishan!"

  Hearing this, Bai Jing and Zhao Zhuo exchanged a glance, and Zhao Zhuo's mouth curled up in a cold smile: "I really didn't expect that the one who took away Qing Yi was actually Li's person. It seems that enemies are bound to meet on a narrow road."

  Seeing Zhao Zhuo seemed to know the leader of Qingfeng Mountain, Jing Buxiao asked in confusion: "Boss, do you know that Li Shan Zhu?"

  Zhao Duo sneered, "It's not just a matter of recognition, I've been fighting with Jing Ji for nearly two years now. I didn't expect him to be so relentless. It seems that this time, there must be an end to it."

  A glimmer of joy in his heart, but soon Jing's face showed a worried expression. Zhao Zhuo smiled and said: "Don't worry, that dwarf Li's skills are not weak, but it won't be easy to catch us either. Who will be stronger or weaker at that time is still uncertain."

  Seeing Zhao Zhuo full of confidence, the two let out a sigh of relief. After all, if it was because of Jing Qingyi that Zhao Zhuo had an unexpected outcome, that wasn't what they wanted to see either.

  Sweat, what's the motivation for this, where are the collections and votes?
