After the mind-reading cripple junior sister, the entire sect rose to prominence.

Chapter 138 Everything goes dark

If we could get the Gu family to bring the monkey out, we could secretly treat it, and then leave without alerting anyone.

[Tsk, the master of the Black God Spirit Fire is not someone just anyone would dare to offend.]

Upon hearing Hu Jiu's explicit refusal, even Liu Feng seemed poised to stand up and leave, while the Gu siblings' eyes revealed despair and gloom.

Is there still no hope...?

Even though they have tried their best, barely slept or rested since the incident, and have been constantly searching for clues and successfully found the spirit fire, they still can't persuade them?
This is their last chance. The Gu family is currently using a special elixir to keep the Hunyuan Monkey alive, which also puts the Dream Gu worm in its brain into a deep sleep, just like the monkey itself.

But the medicine is almost used up, and once its effects wear off, the Hunyuan Monkey can only last for three to five days at most.

Are they just going to watch it die?

however--

“Actually… there is a way.” Liu Feng suddenly spoke up.

The Gu siblings were stunned for a moment, then raised their heads with red eyes, looking at him blankly.

“If you can send a sacred beast here, I can let Jiuwei give it a try, but I can’t guarantee the outcome,” Liu Feng said. “If it doesn’t heal, we only want one thing from your Gu family. If it does heal, then it’s three things. We can take whatever we want, how about it?”

What a twist!

It took the brother and sister a while to realize that Liu Feng had actually agreed!
Overjoyed, they quickly nodded in agreement, "No problem, I'll tell my family right away."

"It would be best to bring someone from your family who can make decisions, such as the head of the Gu family. You should tell him about the matter first, and if he agrees to the conditions, then it's not too late to come. We'll just wait here."

"Yes!"

Naturally, the Gu family would have no objections.

Upon hearing their conditions, Gu Chen immediately agreed and said he would make preparations for departure immediately and arrive in half an hour at the latest.

However, it was obviously inappropriate to choose to perform the treatment in a restaurant for the convenience of the treatment, so Hu Jiu went outside and temporarily rented a very quiet courtyard.

Cultivators are different from ordinary people. For ordinary people, buying or renting a house is a big deal, and they don't move easily. Every time they move, it takes a lot of time and effort.

However, cultivators have Qiankun bags, so they don't need to worry about luggage at all. Moreover, they need to travel around to cultivate, and they often leave whenever they want, so the need to rent a house is very frequent.

In every city, you can rent a house anytime, pay the money, and move in immediately, saving you the time of cleaning and tidying up.

You can rent by the day, or by the month or year.

Some courtyards even have small spirit-gathering arrays, making them more spiritually powerful than ordinary courtyards and thus commanding higher rents.

Actually, they only need to use it for a short while. In terms of price, it is cheaper to go to the inn, but the inn is crowded and noisy, and it does not have a quiet courtyard. So, the courtyard is the priority.

"You guys wait outside, Jiuwei and I will go in," Liu Feng said.

That won't do! The Gu family is sending a lot of people soon, including that expert Gu Chen!

Hu Jiu and the others frowned, about to go and persuade him, but Liu Feng stopped them, saying, "If there are too many people, we will inevitably be noticed. It's fine if it's just me and Jiu Wei."

Now everyone understands.

"I, myself!" Mo Jiuwei shook her head, struggling to jump down herself.

Liu Feng was no longer calm. "No, I have to stay with you."

"I am fire."

Mo Jiuwei shook her hand and winked at him.

Liu Feng thought that if he and Jiu Wei went there, they would be less of a target, and even if the Geng family sent people over, they probably wouldn't notice them.

But Mo Jiuwei was even more ruthless, insisting on going herself. This made her a much smaller target; even if the Geng family watched her go in and out, they wouldn't believe she could save the Hunyuan Monkey.

But the problem is, Liu Feng isn't reassured!

However, if Mo Jiuwei insisted on something, no one could force her, so under her gaze, everyone reluctantly agreed.

"Call us if anything happens. You have our communication talismans and explosive talismans, don't forget." Chen Lan squatted down and touched her face, deliberately raising her voice to remind the Gu family.

Mo Jiuwei nodded.

Don't worry, they wouldn't dare do anything to me.

I'll definitely come out unharmed.

After dropping Mo Jiuwei off at the street corner, she swayed and walked into the courtyard on her own.

A short while later, the Gu siblings also went inside.

A moment later, six people walked over from the street. In the middle was a middle-aged man in a black robe with a reserved demeanor. The other five were clearly experts, each with sharp eyes that looked around with wariness and probing.

However, two of the five people were carrying something, which looked like a wooden box about half a person's height.

The six men walked into the alley, knocked on the door of the house, and then went inside.

The people from the Xianlai Sect were on the second floor of a teahouse diagonally opposite the alley. They were sitting by the window, pretending to drink tea while occasionally glancing at the door of that room.

Even though this place has the best view, you can only see half of the door and still can't see what's inside.

"What should we do? Is Junior Sister really okay on her own?" Mu Xue asked with concern, her brows furrowed.

"She should be fine. She's confident in herself, and besides, she has the Spirit Fire. The Gu family can't hurt her, and they have no reason to hurt her," Chen Lan said.

Liu Feng was also worried, but he was well aware of Mo Jiuwei's strength.

He took a sip of tea and said calmly, "Just wait."

Inside the house, Mo Jiuwei was giving Gu Qingxiu a perfunctory answer.

Gu Qingxiu truly treated her like a child, fearing that she was too young and wouldn't know how to command and use the spiritual fire later. So she explained very carefully and patiently, to the point that Mo Jiuwei wanted to cover her ears.

Fortunately, the Gu family arrived soon, and Mo Jiuwei breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the commotion.

[Finally over, my ears are practically calloused from hearing this.]

[Tsk, the aura of a poison master is indeed different from ordinary people. These people look more dangerous than the last; if they walked on the street, people would definitely keep their distance.]

Gu Chen and his group changed their clothes specifically for this occasion, not wearing the traditional white robes of the Gu family, probably to avoid attracting too much attention.

Even though they changed clothes, their identities as experts and poison masters still made them stand out from the crowd, and no one would dare to provoke them.

"grandfather!"

Upon seeing him arrive, Gu Qingxiu called out and ran over.

"Qingxiu, Mingyu, the message you sent was too brief. What exactly happened?" Gu Chen asked.

So Gu Qingxiu glanced at Mo Jiuwei and then recounted the story.

After listening, Gu Chen nodded, his gaze falling on Mo Jiuwei. "Is this the little girl, the master of the Black God?"

"Yes."

Gu Chen's expression became extremely complicated—

The fact that their ancient family's sacred beast was actually going to be handed over to a mere baby was enough to make him faint!
