Professionals of the Starry Skies - Chapter 37

[37. Chapter 37 Yellow Bird (asking for monthly ticket)]

Outside the valley.

Shen Yuxin raised his hand and drew his sword.

A sword beam flew out, cutting a small jade snake into two pieces.

“Emerald snake? The snake gall is worth one spiritual sand… Fifth sister is really lucky, we will surely return victorious this time.”

Upon seeing this, Hua Feiyue immediately giggled, twisted her slender waist and walked forward to collect the resources from the jade snake.

Master Wan Fenglin looked at Hua Feiyue’s slender waist and towering hips and couldn’t help but smile: “Brother Chen, you are so lucky… If my eyes are not wrong, this girl must be charming and coquettish…”

“This old man and I, our sworn brothers and sisters, are loyal to each other…”

Chen Yi’s expression remained unchanged.

Chen Hongtian followed behind Chen Yi, carrying a huge hammer on his back, but he glanced at his second sister with a somewhat intoxicated look in his eyes.

Meng Yi did not notice the subtle atmosphere, but lagged behind the team a few steps and grabbed Shen Yuxin’s right hand: “You seem to be a little uneasy. Normally, you would not let the little snake get within seven steps of you…”

“I’m worried about Zi Jin…” Shen Yuxin replied with a wry smile.

“He’s fine. There are law enforcement teams in the market town… Besides, didn’t we tell him not to go out? With the talismans we left behind, it won’t be a problem for him to protect himself.”

There is order in the market town. At least, breaking into houses and killing people should not happen before all the Qingxuan Sect’s law enforcement team are killed… right?

“I specifically told Zi Jin not to trust the people next door, so nothing serious will happen…”

Shen Yuxin also murmured.

“Now that we have arrived at the ‘Five Scorpion Valley’, we can finish our work as soon as possible and go back.”

Meng Yi comforted his wife.

A group of six people entered the deep valley. The weakest among them were innate warriors with amazing body movements. They easily passed through several dangerous places and entered the valley entrance.

“Be careful, there is poisonous fog here, why don’t you take some anti-poison pills first!”

Master Wan Dan handed over a jade bottle.

“Thank you very much.”

Chen Yi took it with a smile, swallowed a pill, and then handed it to Hua Feiyue.

After everyone had taken the pills, Master Wandan said, “There are many purple-winged scorpions living here, so let’s stick to our previous plan!”

“Can!”

Chen Yi nodded, took out a few small flags, and handed them to everyone: “We have practiced this set of ‘Small Maze Formation’ thoroughly. When the time comes, you should pay attention to your steps and continue to inject innate true energy. It should be possible to trap the purple-winged scorpion.”

“Don’t worry, big brother.”

Hua Feiyue threw a coquettish glance and took it with a smile.

Before long, a layer of hazy white mist emerged at the mouth of the valley, gradually merging with the mist in the mountains, and it became impossible to distinguish the two.

Crack! Crack!
A monkey-like puppet suddenly walked out of the mist. It was nearly two meters tall, with arms longer than the knees. There were various spiritual patterns flashing on its body, emitting powerful mana fluctuations.

At this moment, the puppet monkey suddenly pounded his chest and suddenly opened his bloody mouth.

Puff!
A yellowish-brown beam of light emerged from its mouth and rushed into the valley.

Buzz!

A terrifying sound of wings fluttering was heard, and several purple scorpion shadows emerged and rushed towards the puppet.

The monkey puppet immediately let out a strange cry and fled backwards.

The purple-winged scorpion chased relentlessly, and the two sides, one chasing and one fleeing, soon entered the maze.

Those purple-winged scorpions disappeared as soon as they entered the small maze, and only flashes of magic lights and occasional explosions could be heard.

After a while, a slightly broken monkey puppet came out again and tried to lure the purple-winged scorpion…

…

“Not bad, you can even use puppetry?”

Fang Xing looked at this scene and exclaimed that it was very exciting.

After all, formations and puppetry are quite rare.

Of course, these people are not formation masters and puppeteers, but they bought formations and puppets, but it is enough to see that they have invested a lot of money!
“Comparing ordinary monsters with immortal cultivators… Under the same strength, immortal cultivators are better after all… After all, immortal cultivators know how to use tools and strategies.”

Fang Xing only took a few glances and knew that if he continued to lure the purple-winged scorpions like this, there would be no way they could recover and they would have to be wiped out.

Gradually, as one purple-winged scorpion after another was killed, the mist covering the valley dissipated a lot.

A sacred lake can be vaguely seen in the mist, located in the center of the valley.

At the edge of the lake, there are several strange orchids, all covered in fluorescent light. Some of them have already bloomed, emitting a mysterious fragrance. You can tell at a glance that they are not ordinary orchids.

What’s more important is… next to Huan Xin Lan, there is a purple-winged scorpion lying there!

This purple-winged scorpion is the size of a millstone, and its entire body appears to be carved from a piece of purple crystal. Its translucent armor reflects colorful colors under the sunlight.

At this time, the ‘Purple-winged Scorpion King’ also realized that something was wrong, and it flapped its wings, turning into a stream of purple light, and rushed straight to the valley entrance with the few remaining purple-winged scorpions!

“Oh no, there’s something wrong with this Purple Winged Scorpion King! It’s at least a first-class, top-grade demon insect, and can rival a cultivator in the late stage of Qi training!”

Inside the small maze formation, Master Wan Dan, who was waving a small flag, saw this scene and his expression changed immediately.

“Let’s fight, let it enter the formation!” Chen Yi gritted his teeth and said, “So what if it’s a first-class demon insect? In the formation, if we join forces, we may be able to win!”

Before he finished speaking, the purple light had already rushed into the small maze formation.

Purple poisonous mist suddenly appeared and enveloped the area, seeming to corrode the original white mist.

Meng Yi and other innate warriors changed their expressions and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. They felt that the innate true energy in their bodies was flowing away at a speed ten or even dozens of times faster than before…

“Now, it seems like a good opportunity… But the mantis stalks the cicada, while the oriole is behind. I’d better stay a boy…”

Fang Xing, who was far away in Qinglin Market, saw this group of people fighting each other and a strange expression appeared on his face.

Boom!

A few minutes later, a flash of fire appeared on the surveillance screen, and then the small maze formation exploded!

The thick fog dissipated, revealing the figures of the Five Heroes of Cangshan and Master Wan Dan.

Although they all looked extremely miserable, and Hua Feiyue and Shen Yuxin’s clothes were stained with blood, the purple-winged scorpion king, which was as big as a millstone, had already fallen dead on the ground.

“A first-grade, top-grade demon insect, how many spirit stones does it cost? There are also other demon insect materials, and Huan Xin Lan… I’ve got it, I’ve got it!”

Meng Yi looked at his wife’s injuries and pressed a few acupoints to stop the bleeding. Seeing the scorpion corpses all over the ground, his breathing became heavy. “After we finish this job, we can rent a stall in the market. We won’t have to do this bloody business anymore, and we can also train Zi Jin…”

“yes……”

A kind smile appeared on Shen Yuxin’s pale face.

The next moment, the smiles on her and Meng Yi’s faces froze: “Third brother, you?”

In their sight, Chen Hongtian had a grim smile on his face and smashed the hammer in his hand towards his eldest brother Chen Yi!

Dang!
A golden light appeared on Chen Yi’s body and turned into a golden bell.

The pitch-black iron hammer smashed onto the golden bell, stirring the innate true energy and causing the golden bell to emit a loud roar.

“Golden Bell Cover Talisman?”

Chen Hongtian missed the target with his strike and immediately flew back. The hammer weighing hundreds of pounds was impenetrable under his swing, like a dark curtain of light, protecting him tightly. “You’ve been prepared?”

“Old Third, you are indeed in collusion with Wan Fenglin!”

Chen Yi’s face was filled with grief.

“Third brother, why?” Hua Feiyue had already been seriously injured. He quickly retreated, looking at his fourth brother and fifth sister who were also at a loss, and secretly moved away from them.

Things have changed so much that no one can be trusted now!
“Why?”

Chen Hongtian glanced greedily at Hua Feiyue and sneered, “Of course it’s because this old man relies on his status as an immortal cultivator to take the lion’s share every time. Why?”

“He who knows the current situation is a hero. I think it’s better for you to surrender obediently…” Wan Fenglin looked confident: “Fellow Daoist Hua, what do you think?”

“Slave…” A trace of sadness appeared on Hua Feiyue’s face, which was originally bleeding, and she looked particularly pitiful.

But before she could say anything, a layer of black air suddenly surged up: “Oh no, you actually poisoned me? The anti-poison pill from before?”

“Haha, yes, it is the Anti-Poison Pill!” Wan Fenglin laughed: “This is a pill specially made by this alchemist. How does it taste?”

He looked towards Meng Yi and his wife and found that these two innate warriors were in even worse condition and had already collapsed to the ground. But when he turned his eyes and saw Chen Yi, he was suddenly startled again.

The other party looked full of energy, with a rosy face, and didn’t look like he was poisoned at all!

At this moment, he was taking out several attack talismans, with magic power surging in his hands.

“not good!”

He subconsciously crushed the talisman in his hand, and a golden light protected him tightly.

But the next moment!
Roar!
Along with the roar of a tiger, a pitch-black tiger-headed broadsword suddenly emerged from the dense forest, pulling out a blade several feet long, and slashed heavily on the golden light.

Wan Fenglin’s expression changed drastically: “Tiger-head knife? The Black Tiger Gang’s standard magic weapon? You actually defected to the Black Tiger Gang?”

In the jungle, a sturdy man wearing a black robe with a ferocious tiger head embroidered on his chest walked out slowly, with a ferocious smile on his face: “Master Wan Dan, Fu Qing of the Black Tiger Gang greets you. Our Black Tiger Gang would like to invite Master Wan Dan to be a guest official. Why has Master Wan Dan refused?”

Seeing this scene, Chen Hongtian knew something was wrong and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Fu Qing’s position was just stuck at the entrance of the valley, leaving him no way to escape!
Moreover, the opponent was a great master in the late stage of Qi training. Although he was not as good as the four Qi training elders who founded the Black Tiger Gang, he was still no small matter!

“Ahem, I’m just considering it. Now I think it’s a good idea to be a guest of the Black Tiger Gang…”

Wan Fenglin coughed and suddenly raised his hand.

Two black beads that looked like pills shot out.

“Is that… Dan Lei?”

Fu Qing’s eyes jumped and he saw one of the pills suddenly exploded. The purple-red lightning instantly hit the tiger-head sword, blowing the magic weapon away with a mournful cry.

He knew something was wrong, so he turned around and slapped his waist again. A black shield shaped like a tortoise shell emerged and blocked his body firmly.

…

“Huh? The fight finally started.”

In the monitoring room, Fang Xing’s eyes lit up: “Then it’s my turn…”
