Ch. 53 Part 4 – Sikong Xing (IV)
With a flick of Su Junmo’s robe, the two brocade bags flew into Meng Qi’s hand. Meng Qi didn’t hold back and put both into her storage space. She really needed the spirit stones now.
“My Lady…ah, no, Miss Meng!” When Sikong Xing tried to speak, she remembered that Meng Qi didn’t want to be called ‘Lady.’
“Call me Meng Qi.” Meng Qi said calmly.
“I…”
“It’s okay.” Meng Qi said. “A name is originally used for addressing people. There is nothing such as disrespect or not.”
“Yes.” Sikong Xing stared at Meng Qi, a bright light flashed in her eyes, “Then, is it okay for me to also call you Meng Qiqi like Su Junmo?”
Meng Qi: “…”
Meng Qi nodded. Now that even Chu Tianfeng was calling her by this nickname, she no longer cared.
“Meng Qiqi.” Sikong Xing said again: “I will let these girls return, but can I stay in Three Thousand World? I came to find my mother. My father missed my mother too much that he damaged his foundation. This one hundred years, his cultivation base has been stagnant. I’m afraid…” She lowered her head sadly, revealing a slender white neck: “I want to find my mother and ask her to go back to see father. So Meng Qiqi…please let me stay here!”
“Uh…” Meng Qi glanced at Su Junmo again.
Su Junmo nodded slowly and sighed: “Her father is indeed love-stricken.”
“Okay.” Meng Qi nodded.
“Thank you, Meng Qiqi.” Sikong Xing smiled happily. She was born with the charm and splendor of the red fox clan. With an exquisite face and red clothes, her smiling face was extremely charming.
Even Meng Qi was almost captivated.
“Then, can I follow you?” Sikong Xing asked again. This time more cautiously, “I don’t know where to find my mother. I don’t know anyone in Three Thousand Worlds and also ignorant of the rules here. So can I follow you?”
“Then you must make a soul oath.” Su Junmo was still worried about the red fox clan’s scheme. “Swear that you will never harm Meng Qiqi when you are in Three Thousand Worlds.”
“Yes.” Sikong Xing immediately raised her thumb and index finger and put it before her chest. “I swear upon the soul oath that I will never hurt Meng Qi in this life. If I break this oath, the spirit of the ancestors will abandon me, and the stars will never shine upon me again.”
Sikong Xing finished his oath and stood up happily.
Su Junmo shook his head. With a wave of his hand, he instantly sent all her subordinates back to the Demon Realm.
Sikong Xing shifted her gaze. Her brilliant eyes were locked on the thing in Su Junmo’s hand, but she didn’t say anything. Even though Meng Qi was still in the Foundation Establishment stage, she was a special person who could use the Four Poles Great Array. It was perfectly normal for her to have someone like Su Junmo to follow and protect her.
“Meng Qiqi.” Sikong Xing took the initiative to ask: “Where are we going now?”
Sikong Xing was beautiful. Her long dress was red like fire, her eyes were bright like stars, and her appearance was gorgeous. To give birth to such a beautiful daughter, her mother must also be a stunning beauty. Meng Qi scanned over Sikong Xing’s facial features and went through her memory for all people she had met in both lives. However, she couldn’t remember any female cultivator who might have given birth to such a beautiful daughter.
Meng Qi replied: “We still have to catch the demon cultivators who bring immortal devouring vines with them.” She still had some time and wanted to hunt as many as possible. One more demon cultivator meant one hundred more spirit stones reward. Although the possibility was very slim, sometimes such a minuscule amount of money might determine the result of an auction.
“Then I’ll help you.” Sikong Xing immediately said: “This time, the leader of the team is Sikong Changlie, the grandson of the red fox clan’s seventh elder.” She snorted disdainfully: “When he was in the Demon Realm, Sikong Changlie always bullied the weak and liked to rob beautiful female cultivators. Among the girls who followed me, two were kidnapped by him and thrown away to his subordinates. Fortunately, I accidentally ran to him and brought them back in time. Otherwise, they might have been ravaged to death!”
Sikong Xing became angrier and angrier: “But I don’t know how many other girls who were too late to be saved and were destroyed by his hand. Meng Qiqi, I will help you to capture him. Before sending him back to be exchanged with spirit stones, we must castrate that bastard!”
“Okay!” Meng Qi nodded and asked, “Is he also a fourth-rank cultivator?”
“Yes!” Sikong Xing exclaimed: “And he also brings a lot of subordinates, at least forty or fifty. Six or seven of them are also fourth-rank cultivators. The rest are third-rank.”
Meng qi quickly calculated: “Good! Let’s catch them.”
“Just use the Four Poles Great Array. Sikong Changlie will definitely cry!” Sikong Xing snorted, “He often claims to be the direct descendant of red fox’s ancestor. Seeing the Four Poles Great Array will scare him to death!”
“Okay.” Meng Qi said, “I will fix up the arrays here.” She turned to Su Junmo and Chu Tianfeng, then slowly moved her gaze to Qin Xiumo, who was still wary of Sikong Xing.
“Meng Qiqi, let them go to find Sikong Changlie.” Sikong Xing said: “I will stay to protect you. Those three are unneeded here.”
Meng Qi didn’t reply immediately. She took out one of the brocade bags that Sikong Xing just gave her and said to Qin Xiumo: “According to our agreement earlier, we will divide the spirit stones based on contribution level. Just now, you became the bait to lure the enemy, so your previous debt has been written off, and I will also give you five more stones.”
“Qin Xiumo, since our business has finished, you no longer need to stay here.”
Seeing Qin Xiumo’s misfortune, Chu Tianfeng gloated in relish. Who lets him pretend to be poor and owe a debt? Didn’t he get driven away now?!
Deserve it!
“Oh.” Qin Xiumo’s expression remained unchanged, “I am also short of money, so I want to stay and earn some spirit stones.”
—He never thought that one day, he would blatantly lie to someone that he ‘wants to earn spirit stones.’
