Chapter 1238

Shang Huaming's three disciples were not much slower than others in the early and middle stages of the Qi Refining realm, and even surpassed others in some areas. However, in the middle and late stages of the Qi Refining realm, when the effects of the medicinal pills became apparent, they lagged behind others.

Xiao Yuehong was also helpless in this situation. Shang Huaming's strength was barely satisfactory, and his selection of disciples was extremely strict. In addition, Xiao Yuehong was lazy and didn't like to expand his influence. He only relied on refining some low-level medicinal pills to survive, so he was stretched thin when it came to providing medicinal pills to his disciples!

This time, if Hundred Herbs Gate hadn't taken out the Foundation Establishment Pill to stimulate him, Xiao Yuehong might not have been in such a hurry to go to the depths of Yellow Flower Ridge to look for ripe and usable absorption fruits. He might even have been lying on a boat-shaped artifact and basking in the sun every day!

Knowing Xiao Yuehong's temperament, Xiao Hua also knew that Xiao Yuehong might not get to the bottom of the matter when he saw the absorption fruits. He would go to the place where the absorption fruits were picked to investigate with his own eyes, so he only concealed a few places.

Just as Xiao Hua was ready to wait for Xiao Yuehong to return, Xiao Yuehong had disappeared again!

Previously, Xiao Hua was afraid that Xiao Yuehong would come back quickly. The absorption fruits in the space behind his head were not ripe, so he couldn't take them out. Xiao Hua silently told Xiao Yuehong to come back later, but after waiting for a period of time, about twenty days, Xiao Yuehong really didn't come back in time as Xiao Hua expected. Xiao Hua was a little uneasy!

After all, in the three years that Xiao Hua had been with Shang Huaming, Xiao Yuehong had almost never left Minzu Peak. It was even more impossible for him to disappear for twenty days.

Moreover, in these twenty days, not a single Messaging Talisman flew back!

On this day, just as Xiao Hua was hesitating whether to tell Gong Mingwei that Xiao Yuehong hadn't returned for a long time, he felt that Shang Huaming's sect protection array had some changes!

Xiao Hua frowned slightly. He flew to the place where he had received Jiang Jiantong from Hundred Herbs Gate. He threw out a yellow talisman, and a scarlet red Messaging Talisman flew past. It opened a small crack in the formation and landed in Xiao Hua's hand.

Xiao Hua knew that this Messaging Talisman was for Xiao Yuehong, so he didn't dare to open it without permission. He could only take the Messaging Talisman and send it to Minzu Peak. Looking at the flashing red talisman, Xiao Hua pinched his chin and thought for a long time before he made up his mind and went to the Pure Heart Cave of Solitary Staff Peak.

"What?

Master … has already been in the depths of Yellow Flower Ridge for more than twenty days? "Gong Mingwei was shocked when he heard this.

"You … why didn't you say so earlier?" Zhang Qingxiao fiercely glared at Xiao Hua and scolded.

"Second Senior Brother, you can't blame me for this. The Sect Leader didn't allow me to tell you because he was afraid that it would affect your cultivation!"

Xiao Hua smiled bitterly. "But, this little brother didn't know if there was any problem with the Sect Leader being gone for so long. After thinking it over, I came up to report!"

"En, Xiao Hua, don't mind it too much. Second Senior Brother is just a little anxious!"

Xiao Xianrui panicked at first, but she calmed down after a while. She first told Xiao Hua, and then said to Gong Mingwei, "Eldest Senior Brother, don't worry. I'm afraid that Father went to that place to look for the Absorbing Fruit again!"

"Sigh, Junior Sister, that's why I feel that it's inappropriate when I think about it. Last time, Master said that he was lucky enough to pick enough Absorption Fruits. He also said that he wouldn't risk his life so easily!"

Gong Mingwei sighed and said, "But this time, he went to the depths of Yellow Flower Ridge. If he didn't go there, where else could he go?"

"It seems that last time, Master didn't return for twenty days. Counting with my fingers … it's about time!" Zhang Qingxiao lowered her head and thought for a moment before speaking.

"Master didn't send a message back?" Gong Mingwei raised his head and asked Xiao Hua.

"No ~" Xiao Hua shook his head and replied, "But …"

Before he could say anything about the Communication Talisman, they heard a rumbling sound from outside the mountain!

"What's that sound?" Xiao Hua's five senses were very sensitive, so it was very easy for him to hear it.

"What sound?" Gong Mingwei was stunned. When he listened carefully, an even louder sound was heard.

"Aiyo, not good!

Someone's attacking our Sect Protecting Formation! "Xiao Xianrui's mind was very sharp. As soon as she heard the sound, she realized!

"Quick, let's go take a look!" Zhang Qingxiao didn't say anything else and ran out of the cave.

"Second Brother … without Master's orders, how can we leave the Tranquil Cave?" Gong Mingwei said anxiously.

When Xiao Xianrui heard this, she put down her raised leg.

"They're already at our doorstep. Do we still have to reflect on our mistakes?"

Zhang Qingxiao didn't care about this. After running out of the Tranquil Cave, she turned around and asked, "Junior Sister, where's the flying talisman?"

"Please ask Eldest Senior Brother and Senior Sister to leave quickly. If the Sect Master asks, just say that I saw someone attacking our sect and asked Senior Brother and Senior Sister to leave!"

Xiao Hua was also a little anxious. He had been at Tranquil Cave for three years, but he had never seen anyone attack Tranquil Cave!

"Hehe, when is it your turn to bear the responsibility?"

Although Gong Mingwei was apprehensive about his Master's orders, he wasn't a stubborn person. He reached out his hand and took a flying talisman from Xiao Xianrui's hand. He placed it on himself and said as he flew, "Xiao Hua, when Master left, he gave you the magic tool to control the formation!"

"Here!"

As Xiao Hua spoke, he took out the jade pendant that he had already taken out from his space and handed it over. He said, "Just now, there was a talisman that was used to transmit messages. I only used a yellow talisman to bring it in. I have yet to use this magic tool!"

"Communication Talisman?

Who sent it? "Gong Mingwei took the magic tool and asked curiously.

"This … I don't know either. I only put it on Minsi Peak!" Xiao Hua said honestly.

"Mm, go get it. Maybe it has something to do with the evil thieves outside!"

"Yes, Eldest Senior Brother!"

Xiao Hua flew back to Minsi Peak. By the time he brought the Communication Talisman back, Gong Mingwei and the other two had already arrived at the edge of the sect-protecting formation. In front of the three of them was a rather large mirror. In that mirror, they could see the situation outside the white fog of Yellow Flower Ridge.

At this moment, there were more than ten people around thirty years old dressed in navy blue clothes. They held some yellow talismans in their hands and some oddly shaped magic tools. They were constantly throwing fireballs, ice balls, water streams, and other things at Tranquil Cave's sect-protecting formation. From those magic tools, there were also very colorful lights. When those lights hit the formation, there were rumbling sounds. This was what Xiao Hua and the others had heard at Lone Staff Peak!

"Ten Thousand Poisons Sect!!!"

Xiao Xianrui saw all kinds of strange poisons on the sleeves of the disciples in the mirror and couldn't help but gnash her teeth. "Did I, Tranquil Cave, provoke them or provoke them?

They actually brought so many disciples to attack me? "

Behind the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect disciple who was attacking Shang Huaming, there was also a streak of light in the air. Above the streak of light stood a man and a woman, both in the Foundation Establishment stage.

The man's skin was dark and his face was ugly. His eyes faintly glowed with a cold light. The woman's clothes were brightly colored, her skin was fair, her figure was plump, and her eyes were full of affection.

Seeing that the middle-stage Qi Refinement stage disciples were not attacking well, the man snorted coldly. "Protector Liao, the disciples have been attacking for so long. That Xiao Yuehong of Tranquil Cave should have heard the commotion. Even if he didn't come out to fight, we didn't reinforce this formation?

I'm afraid … there's no one in Tranquil Cave? "

"You're right, Protector Zhen. If Xiao Yuehong isn't at Yellow Flower Ridge, then it's a great opportunity for us to take down Yellow Flower Ridge!"

Protector Liao's eyes turned flirtatiously. Her voice was also frivolous. "Boy, quickly use all your magic power and take down Tranquil Cave. I have something good for you!"

Hearing this, the dozen or so disciples of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect were invigorated. Yellow talismans, magic weapons, and so on were all used to attack Tranquil Cave's great formation. Unfortunately, Tranquil Cave's great formation was set up by an Aurous Core stage ancestor. Although the great formation shook for a while, it was still too early to say that it was broken.

"Just relying on them won't work!"

Seeing this, Protector Zhen smiled. "Previously, we were waiting here for Xiao Yuehong to appear. Now that he's not at Yellow Flower Ridge, why don't we make the first move? If we take down Yellow Flower Ridge, the strength of our Ten Thousand Poisons Sect will increase greatly. We should be able to overcome the next obstacle!"

"Yes, we'll do as you say, Protector Zhen."

Protector Liao smiled charmingly. "Now, I'll make the first move. If Protector Zhen is willing, how about we work together?"

"Hehe, if Protector Zhen doesn't mind, how can I refuse?" Protector Zhen also laughed. His laughter was filled with … vulgarity!

"Oh no, they're both at the Foundation Establishment stage. If father doesn't preside over our great formation, I'm afraid we're no match for them!" Seeing that the two masters outside were about to make a move, Xiao Xianrui was shocked.

Zhang Qingxiao was also panicking. She shouted anxiously, "Why isn't master back yet?

Xiao Hua, have you sent a Messaging Charm to master? "

"Right, a Messaging Charm!" Xiao Xianrui slapped her forehead.

"I don't have a Messaging Charm!" Xiao Hua held the red Messaging Charm in his hand and smiled bitterly.

"I'll do it!"

Xiao Xianrui patted the storage bag on her waist, and a yellow talisman in the shape of a paper crane appeared in her hand. She said a few words on the top of the paper crane's head, and Xiao Xianrui injected her magic power into the paper crane. The paper crane first flew out, circled in the air a few times, then determined a direction, and suddenly flew out, turning into a light blue brilliance and flying towards the depths of Yellow Flower Ridge!

"This Messaging Charm just arrived?" Gong Mingwei pointed at the red brilliance in Xiao Hua's hand and said.

"Yes, it is!" Xiao Hua handed the Messaging Charm over.

"No need to look. It's probably a letter of challenge from the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect!"

Zhang Qingxiao had a well-thought-out look. "The Messaging Charm just entered the great formation and the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect came. Do you still need to say it?"

"Let's wait and see!"

As Gong Mingwei spoke, he poured his magic power into his hand and squeezed it. The brilliance of the Messaging Charm was crushed with a "pop" sound. A slightly familiar voice was heard. "Sect Leader Xiao, have you discussed this matter with your daughter?

I'm eagerly waiting for good news! "

That voice belonged to the Hundred Herbs Sect's Jiang Jiantong.

Xiao Xianrui was stunned and very puzzled. Gong Mingwei and Zhang Qingxiao's faces suddenly darkened as they turned to look at Xiao Hua.

Xiao Hua shouted "Oh no!" and was thinking about how to answer when he heard Jiang Jiantong say again. "Sect Leader Xiao, please don't blame me. I was just casually asking. I didn't have any intention of urging you!

The main reason for this message is … "
