Chapter 157 Stay

“The sand python is very vengeful. Let’s go, let’s deal with it now while it’s injured.” Yuan Jinyue said, preparing to lead her people to fight the sand python.

But after taking only two steps, she felt the ground tremble slightly. Squinting at the distance, she saw an adult sand python approaching them with bloodshot eyes. Its tail looked... well, it looked rather pitiful. Wait, it seemed that it wasn't just the tail that was pitiful.

When the sand python was about two meters away from them, it stopped abruptly, stood upright, and looked down at them.

Upon seeing Mo Qianxun, the sand python's expression became even more ferocious. Although its expression was not readily apparent, one could clearly sense that its killing intent towards Mo Qianxun was almost tangible.

Mo Qianxun silently hid behind Yuan Jinyue.

Yuan Jinyue glanced at Mo Qianxun, then looked up at Sha Mang: "I had no intention of being your enemy, but now it seems that's not possible."

Yuan Jinyue drew her sword and pointed it at the sand python.

Mo Qianxun\(◎o◎)/!:So handsome, so handsome, so handsome.

Ling Feng: ...When will I be able to do that?

Chen Min: ...That's so cool.

The sand python roared at Yuan Jinyue and bit down.

"Take them away from here." Yuan Jinyue looked at the disciples behind her.
Several disciples stepped forward, each grabbing one of them and pulling them several meters away.

Mo Qianxun looked at her eldest apprentice, Yuan Jinyue, who was pulling her along, and asked with some doubt, "Aren't we going to help? Can Sister Jinyue handle this by herself?"

The eldest disciple glanced at Mo Qianxun and said, "You have to believe in my master. She is very powerful. The title of the number one female immortal in the cultivation world is not for nothing. That sand python looks like it has just come of age. Master can completely eliminate it with just one move."

Mo Qianxun swallowed hard as she looked at the enormous sand python: "You mean... it's just reached adulthood?"

"Yes, this sand python looks to be only a hundred years old and not very big. It's a good thing you didn't blow up the python king's tail, otherwise, we would probably only be able to collect your corpses by now. No, that's not right. If it really was the python king, you wouldn't have been able to blow up its tail."

Mo Qianxun: ...How terrifying, the cultivation world is indeed very dangerous.

Just as Yuan Jinyue's eldest disciple said, Yuan Jinyue killed the sand python with a single sword strike, which looked both cool and dashing.

"Sister Jin Yue, you're amazing!" Mo Qianxun excitedly ran forward and hugged Yuan Jin Yue.

Yuan Jinyue patted her on the back: "It's alright! Actually, you could have gone back just now. It wouldn't have been a problem if I couldn't deliver the food."

"That won't do. Our mission is to ensure that the orders are delivered to the customers, or we'll be penalized." Mo Qianxun stated righteously, though... she had completely forgotten that they could go back to their original world for a few minutes and wait for the sand python to leave before returning.

Yuan Jinyue patted her shoulder: "Why are you so stubborn sometimes?"

Mo Qianxun: ...I have to be single-minded now.

Ling Feng and Chen Min, who understand Mo Qianxun: They acted so well, we almost believed them.

Mo Qianxun handed the takeout to Yuan Jinyue and suddenly said, "Where's your little apprentice? She didn't come with us this time?" Thinking of Shen Wanrou, Yuan Jinyue's expression froze for two seconds: "She's in a competition. I came over as soon as I got your message and forgot about her."

Shen Wanrou, who had just come off the field: ...Where are they? Where did everyone go? She only lost one match, and everyone in the sect left her?
“Let’s go. If we don’t go back now, it won’t be good for us if Shen Wanrou finds out something.” The eldest apprentice looked at Yuan Jinyue.

Yuan Jinyue nodded as she thought of their plan. Just as she was about to say goodbye to Mo Qianxun, Mo grabbed her arm.

“Sister Jin Yue, we’re actually quite curious about this world. How about you take us with you for the next few days?” Mo Qianxun looked at Yuan Jin Yue with a grin.

Yuan Jinyue frowned slightly: "But the secret realm will open tomorrow, and you won't be able to participate in the competition, so you can't go in with us."

Mo Qianxun frowned slightly: "Will everyone go in?"

"That's not true. Only those who win the competition and successfully enter the top 100 can get in," Yuan Jinyue said, looking at her with concern.

"If you stay here after we go in, what will you do if you get bullied? There will be no one to take care of you." The cultivation world is a world where the strong prey on the weak. Mo Qianxun, who has already embarked on the path of cultivation, is in a better position, but although Ling Feng and the others have spiritual roots, they haven't actually embarked on the path of cultivation. Those people will probably take advantage of this and bully them severely.

"...So, do you think Shen Wanrou has the ability to enter the secret realm?"

Yuan Jinyue narrowed her eyes slightly: "Qianxun, tell me honestly, you guys didn't just come here to deliver takeout to me, did you? You came here for her?"

Mo Qianxun glanced at the others, pulled Yuan Jinyue aside, and whispered a few words in her ear.

Yuan Jinyue looked at her in surprise: "You really have a way to find evidence that she colluded with the demons?" She had done such things before, and she also wanted to find that evidence as soon as possible to expose Shen Wanrou's true colors. However, Shen Wanrou was really cautious in her actions. The evidence she had found so far was not enough to nail Shen Wanrou to the pillar of shame and make her never be able to turn her back.

"Probably, we have to think of something."

Yuan Jinyue stroked her chin: "Alright, leave this matter to me. However, I'm going to lead a team into the secret realm next, so I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you. How about this, let Qingfeng accompany you."

"Qingfeng? Who?"

"...Don't you know my eldest disciple is named Qingfeng?"

"...You didn't introduce him to us either, and he didn't introduce him to us himself either."

“Um… alright, it doesn’t really matter whether Qingfeng goes to the secret realm or not with his current cultivation level. He himself doesn’t really want to go either. It’s good that he can accompany you on your mission and protect you at the same time.” Yuan Jinyue glanced at Qingfeng, who was talking to Ling Feng.

Are you sure you don't want to ask him?

“No need. He was complaining to me yesterday that the secret realm was boring, and it really is. If the sect leader hadn’t asked me to come out for a walk, I wouldn’t have wanted to enter the Golden Sand Secret Realm. It’s all sand, what’s there to see?” Yuan Jinyue said with some dissatisfaction.

"Alright! So, in what capacity should we go back with you?"

"A lost traveler, huh? And by the way, except for a few sects that didn't participate, all the other sects are participating this time. This is a great opportunity to make a fortune. Are you sure you don't want to seize it?" Yuan Jinyue revealed a wicked smile.

Mo Qianxun revealed the same sly smile: "If you put it that way, then I'm really excited. My family can keep sending me goods. Tsk tsk, I wonder how the market is in your cultivation world."
