BXBX NOVEL Chapter 933 The Fifth Trial (2)
Ji Yuan, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress quietly followed Ai Jueluo and his team.
He grinned at them, "Finally we can all be together. You are all so beautiful in the spiritas attire."
And he was looking up and down at them, causing Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress to flush.
"Listen Ji Yuan. I have no other choice but to dress like this. It is the spiritas dress code," the Lovely Empress shyly said to him.
In her heart, she actually liked the spiritas dress but she had to maintain her dignity in front of Ji Yuan.
Ji Yuan chuckled softly, "There is nothing wrong with the spiritas dressing. It looks nice on both of you. Haha…"
Zhi Jiugong already had a rosy cheek when Ji Yuan was staring at them like a big wolf.
Ji Yuan could not help praising them, "Nice butts too…"
The Lovely Empress kicked Ji Yuan and warned him, "We are in the midst of a trial and we may be watched by the others that are outside. So don\'t have any wicked ideas like touching us."
Ji Yuan bitterly said, "I haven\'t even touch yet and thanks for… the warning…"
The two of them really looked so beautiful and coyly in the spiritas clothing that Ji Yuan had almost caressed them…
But he quickly tried to distract himself from them after the Lovely Empress had warned him.
He was actually surprised by how stealthy Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress were so he asked instead, "How come the two of you can be so stealthy?"
It was because the team that they were following were mostly great saints and they all had powerful extra sensory perceptions in their divine sense; normally, it was hard to follow them without being detected even if they were 2 miles away.
While Ji Yuan had stayed beyond the 2 mile range, he was following carefully and stealthy, as not to give away his position by the birds and insects in the forest.
The Lovely Empress giggled, "That is how I can enter your room the last time without you knowing."
She was referring to his inn room while they were still enemies in the Bliss City.
Ji Yuan: …
He quickly tried to change the topic by saying, "This Ai Jueluo is really bold. He walked in the open and he is also moving rapidly."
Zhi Jiugong nodded as she quietly said, "He is looking for a confrontation with the other teams. He seems very confident with his skills and his team\'s skills."
Ji Yuan grinned, "If he met Sisi\'s team then they are going to be in deep shit."
Zhi Jiugong gave a faint smile, "I think this Ai Jueluo isn\'t that foolish. After all, he is a great saint and even if he is a foolish great saint, the others are not. So I think that they may have already devised a plan and they are betting that the other teams may be moving cautiously. In this way, they are able to occupy the high ground in the middle of the island first…"
"I got it, Sister Jiugong." The Lovely Empress chuckled, "Then they can be like us, and they can then whoop on the fighting teams by picking them one by one."
Zhi Jiugong nodded with a smile, "And they can also shake us off too because we will be caught in the crossfire in the center."
Ji Yuan frowned, "Then won\'t it be a mistake to follow them?"
Zhi Jiugong nodded, "We may even become a bait for the other teams to attack us since we cannot move too close to Ai Jueluo and his team."
"We are screwed." The Lovely Empress weakly said. "Maybe they already know that we are following them Ji Yuan, your plan is lousy. So you have a better plan?"
Ji Yuan: …
All of a sudden, they saw that one of the cultivators in the team, whose name is Qin Gang began to dash ahead to pluck a spirit plant that had a golden ball on it.
He was the first to spot this spirit plant in the forest with his divine sense and he naturally wasted no time in trying to pluck it.
Ji Yuan had no idea what this spirit plant and even the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong were asking, "Is this a rare spirit plant?"
Zhi Jiugong smiled, "Sometimes it doesn\'t matter if you don\'t know what the spirit plant is. You can always pluck first and ask later. For it to appear in this wonderland, it will mean that it has to be a rare spirit plant. We are too far to gauge the age of this spirit plant though…"
Qin Gang had indeed plucked the spirit plant and he was grinning to the rest of his team who were green with envy; it was because Qin Gang was only just a few moments faster than them and they had missed out on such a good fortuitous plucking.
And this also showed the superiority of his divine sense over the others too.
All of a sudden, all the cultivators were looking at Qin Gang with shock and so did Ji Yuan, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong; it was because the roots of the alien spirit plant had suddenly wrapped itself around Qin Gang\'s fingers and was sucking him dry.
However, Qin Gang was obviously not aware of this as he continued to grin to the others while walking back to his team.
He had used his right hand to pluck this spirit plant and now half of the right side of his body had been turned into a broiling sea of blood worms that were eating at his body.
Ai Jueluo and many of the cultivators had all turned ashen now and were even taking several steps backward.
Great Saint Bai Qinghe was heard shouting, "Wait! Don\'t come near us…"
Wang Gongzi stammered, "Did you not feel anything at all?"
Qin Gang laughed, "Are you envious that I got to this spirit plant first? Come and take a look at it. Maybe one of you will be able to help me to identify this spirit plant?"
When he had said this, he began to lift the spirit plant in front of him so as to show it to the others.
But his pride had quickly turned to horror when he saw that his right hand and even the entire right side of his body were being eaten away by masses of blood worms!
He was so shocked that he had raised his voice to scream with horror…
But he had no sooner screamed out halfway when Song Qingshu had mustered three golden profound javelins to sunder through his throat, silencing him almost immediately.
In the next instant, Qin Gang had fallen onto the ground and he was swallowed up by the earth, to be recycled for a future trial.
Song Qingshu was panicky as he turned to say to the others, "I didn\'t mean to kill him. I didn\'t expect for him to be weaken to this point that I can kill him with my profound arts…. And I have lost -3 Points because of this…"
Ai Jueluo angrily said, "Why did you do that for? You have just killed one of the cultivators in our team!"
By now, Song Qingshu had composed himself and he was solemnly explaining, "It is not my intention to kill him but to silence him. If he screams, he may attract unwanted attention from the other teams, the shadow cultivators or even profound beasts to our team. This is something that I wish to prevent."
When he had explained it, the furies of Ai Jueluo and the team began to cool off; in fact, they were all nodding with approval.
Ai Jueluo said to him, "Brother Song Qingshu, I am sorry for being rude to you. I see the reason now. And I am also sorry that you have lost 3 points for trying to help the team. My sincere apologies to you!"
The others were all quick to offer their apologies to Song Qingshu.
After that, Ai Jueluo said to the team, "Let\'s go."
Soon everyone began to follow Ai Jueluo with more haste into the forest.
