Immortal Soaring Blade

Vol.2-Chapter 258 – Northern Pond Great Mountain

He got up and moved to the front row. He sat down next to the cold and noble figure. He suddenly felt the fragrance enter his nose, which made him nervous. This was the first time he had come so close to the figure of his dream. Zhao Jiuge opened his mouth several times but didn’t know what to say.

“Who allowed you to sit here? Get back!”

Just when Zhao Jiuge found the courage to speak, Ling Bo Re spoke first. Her voice was cold, and although it wasn’t loud, it showed a clear intent of rejection. Zhao Jiuge suddenly felt embarrassed and scratched his head. He looked at the exquisite face and then returned to the middle row, looking depressed.

When Zhao Jiuge returned to the middle row, Ling Bo Re opened her eyes. She had an unspeakable feeling toward this youth, but she didn’t care. The only thing that mattered to her was improving her cultivation so she could ascend! Thinking about this, her beautiful face became more determined.

However, Zhao Jiuge was a bit disappointed. Ling Bo Re’s attitude was completely different from yesterday. At first, when Ling Bo Re questioned him, it made him happy. He felt he was different from everyone else and could attract her attention. However, her attitude today made him realize that in her eyes, he was still that ant.

Although Zhao Jiuge felt disappointed, he didn’t give up. He still hadn’t figured out how to deal with the other two figures in his heart, but like a cat that smelled fish, his heart itched. When his teacher talked about going to the Hundred Flower Valley with him, he felt happy, but he understood that that was under the premise he had the strength. Otherwise, how could his teacher even ask?

This kind of thing wasn’t rare. When someone found someone they liked, they would ask their teacher or elder to introduce them. If a man looked for a woman, the premise was that their statuses were similar and that their strength was at least equal.

He let out a sigh in his heart and decided to forget about this matter. It was still early, and he should be focused on improving his strength. In addition, this trip was filled with unknown factors, so he had to be careful. Now that he had his mood ruined by Ling Bo Re, he sat down next to Song Rujing.

“Who allowed you to sit here? Get back!”

Song Rujing had watched Zhao Jiuge walk up to the ice cold beauty and was interested in seeing what would happen. When she saw Zhao Jiuge return in defeat, she felt happy at his misery. When he was about to sit down, she immediately copied Ling Bo Re’s words and tone.

For some reason, Song Rujing just didn’t like Ling Bo Re. She didn’t like how cold and unapproachable Ling Bo Re was. Seeing Zhao Jiuge long after Ling Bo Re, she couldn’t help but feel angry. Fortunately, the little girl was kind-hearted and saw Zhao Jiuge as a friend. She didn’t dislike Zhao Jiuge like she disliked Ling Bo Re. However, whenever she saw Zhao Jiuge try to get close to Ling Bo Re, she couldn’t help but mock him.

In the last row, Song Yuansheng already couldn’t endure it and was laughing out loud. In particular, when he saw Zhao Jiuge’s stiff expression, his body was trembling from laughter. When Zhao Jiuge glared at him, he laughed even harder.

Zhao Jiuge knew that the little girl was teasing him and was too lazy to argue. He simply moved to the back row and sat down next to Song Yuansheng. He was not in a good mood, so he didn’t speak much.

Just as Zhao Jiuge sat down, he saw Song Yuansheng\'s mischievous smile. He immediately shouted at Song Yuansheng “There are no more seats behind you! Do you want me to fall to my death!?”

Song Yuansheng was startled and felt it strange that this fellow knew what he was thinking. However, once he reacted to Zhao Jiuge’s words, he began laughing even harder. Even Song Rujing was laughing happily.

Zhao Jiuge helplessly shook his head. He felt like he had met his match with these two siblings. Song Yuansheng noticed Zhao Jiuge was angry and smiled without a word. He simply took out the yellow jade tube and began checking the information inside.

When Zhao Jiuge saw this, he suddenly remembered the jade tubes and quickly took out his. The information inside their jade tubes should be the same. As for Ye Aotian’s group, their jade tubes should contain different information.

Song Yuansheng’s expression became more and more heavy as he checked the information. Seeing this, Zhao Jiuge quickly checked his jade tube as well.

It turned out that the yellow jade tube contained information about what had happened, the forces in the area, and details about the evil cultivators.

A few months ago, the disciples of the Great Barbarian Sect had found traces of the evil sects in the two provinces next to them. They didn’t want to startle them, so they just observed them for a period of time. These evil cultivators weren’t doing anything too evil, and they did everything in secret. They also limited their movements to the nearby two provinces.

This was because the two provinces were sparsely populated and the strongest cultivators were only at the Nascent Soul Realm. The Great Barbarian Sect was in no rush to deal with them, and the Seven Holy Lands Exchange just happened to be around the corner. This caused it to become a mission for the disciples.

According to the information, the evil sect they were going to exterminate was called the Blood Fiend Pavilion. It was not a big sect, and it could not compare to the holy lands. They were only a third or fourth-rate sect, and the strongest cultivator in the sect was only at the Nascent Soul Realm.

However, because of their cultivation method, their strength was not what it looked like on the surface. During combat, they were much stronger than they appeared on the surface. Their cultivation method was called the Blood River Star Cultivation Method. It specialized in absorbing the blood of mortals to cultivate. Blood from cultivators gave them even greater benefits. The stronger the cultivator, the more strength they would obtain.

Generally, they were very violent and would do whatever was needed. When needed, they would slaughter an entire village. The most important information was that the entire Blood Fiend Pavilion was on the move, with almost 100 people.

There was no other information besides the range of their activity, which was around Southern Pond Mountain. After reading the information inside the jade, he understood why Song Yuansheng’s expression had changed. Ignoring the fact that evil cultivators were generally stronger due to the cruel and strange cultivation methods they used, more importantly, the number of Nascent Soul Realm cultivators was unknown. Plus, there were almost 100 people in the sect, while they only had four.

Seeing Zhao Jiuge finish reading the yellow jade tube, Song Yuansheng asked, “Finished reading?” The joking atmosphere from before was gone and his face was somewhat serious.

“Yes. How should we act? After all, we only have four people. Tell me what you think. Although my cultivation is worse than you guys, rest assured, I won’t drag you guys down.” Zhao Jiuge’s expression was also somewhat ugly. Originally, he didn’t think this matter would be this complicated and that just relying on their cultivation would be enough. However, after reading the information inside the jade tube, it was clear that it wouldn\'t be. There were nearly 100 evil cultivators, and if they weren’t careful, some might escape. Their goal was to eliminate all the evil cultivators and find the reason why they had gathered at Southern Pond Mountain.

“What does Brother Zhao mean? We are a group. How can we abandon you just because your cultivation is a bit weaker? What’s more, I’m somewhat envious of your strength. You just lack time for it to develop.” Song Yuansheng chuckled and patted Zhao Jiuge’s shoulder.

At this moment, Song Rujing no longer had the heart to watch the scenery. Seeing that they were discussing this matter, she immediately asked, “Then, what should we do?”

Song Rujing might have the highest cultivation, higher than Ling Bo Re and Song Yuansheng’s, but she was still too young to take charge. Zhao Jiuge was the weakest one here and had started cultivating halfway, so his insight and experience were not as good as Song Yuansheng’s. He naturally looked toward Song Yuansheng with a questioning gaze.

Song Yuansheng pondered a bit and his brows furrowed like he was thinking about something. Then he said with a serious expression, “We’ll directly slaughter our way there. We have three Nascent Soul Realm cultivators, and Jiuge\'s strength can’t be underestimated. There shouldn’t be too much danger—we’ll directly crush them.”

“Not possible.”

Zhao Jiuge was about to open his mouth to agree with Song Yuansheng’s words when a cold voice echoed. Ling Bo Re had turned toward the three of them. Her expression was calm but still as cold as always. This made Song Rujing uncomfortable, and she muttered a few words.

Seeing that beautiful face, Zhao Jiuge entered a trance and looked a bit longer. Ling Bo Re noticed and glanced at him to awaken him from the trance. Song Yuansheng was not unhappy because she disagreed. Instead, he smiled and softly said, “Then, what does Senior Sister Ling suggest?”

Among the four of them, it was without a doubt that Ling Bo Re was the oldest, followed by Song Yuansheng, while Song Rujing was the youngest. So it wasn’t inappropriate for Song Yuansheng to call her “Senior Sister Ling.”

“Seek the enemies’ weakness, catch them off guard, and eliminate them all.” Ling Bo Re was still the same as before. The red dot between her brows entranced Zhao Jiuge. That speck of red on her tender, white face was especially eye-catching.
