The Days of Being Forced to Become the Savior of a Cultivation Civilization
Chapter 69 Taking a Bath
The air was filled with the smell of burning flesh.
Carno put his hands on his hips and kicked aside a dead beetle at his feet:
"Should we tell my dad about this?"
Xuan Ning crossed his arms and sighed:
"Suit yourself. This area doesn't belong to the leader's jurisdiction; it should be placed under the jurisdiction of Chensui City."
Pop, pop, pop.
A sound came from above.
Before anyone knew it, Chang Yun was already standing on the hot spring town sign, looking down at the four of them:
"Mr. Honglan really can't be judged by his appearance. He has a scholarly air about him, but he is skilled in martial arts."
As for the four's brilliant performance, I'm sorry, I was too engrossed in it to witness it.
Honglan snorted coldly, put away her paper fan, and put her hands behind her back:
"Thank you for the compliment, Train Conductor Changyun. No, I should call you Changyun the Reciter now."
Chang Yun laughed out loud:
"Thank you for your kind words. However, my mission is now complete, and it's time for me to leave."
Kano instinctively wanted to launch a flying kick to stop him, but Xuan Ning stopped him.
"Don't be hasty, little girl of the Philody family. You, all five of you, can't keep me here."
He smiled:
Instead of wasting my time, you guys should go and look after my colleague.
He glanced at Yingzi:
"The pendant in your hand is a fake."
He glanced at Zhiyue again, a cryptic smile appearing on his face:
"Perhaps you should be the one in a hurry. She's busy right now, chatting with that dazzling young lady."
Zhiyue's pupils suddenly contracted:
"Oh no!"
He charged forward and headed straight for the Cleansing Heart Spring, with Yingzi following closely behind.
Kano and his companion were stunned for a moment, then quickly realized what was happening and rushed back as well.
Honglan, on the other hand, remained unhurried:
"Aren't you going to get criticized for betraying your teammates like this?"
Chang Yun smiled:
"You don't need to worry about it; I'm confident in my abilities."
Honglan snorted coldly and said nothing more.
Seeing that he showed no sign of leaving, Chang Yun smiled helplessly:
"Mr. Honglan, you don't need to wait for me here. My mission is complete; I'm just waiting here for my companions to evacuate together."
Honglan silently activated her spell, and the wind lifted the bodies of the victims, neatly gathering them together:
"I wasn't waiting for you; I was just giving them a final moment of dignity."
Chang Yun remained silent for a while:
"The last vestige of dignity? Hmph, they've merely become victims of the new era."
Honglan had her back to Changyun, so her expression was not visible.
"Shut up, or I'll break you a thousand times over."

Zhiyue hurriedly returned to the inner area, ignoring the commotion among the surrounding travelers, and rushed headlong towards Dixin Spring.
The three people following him then began to disperse the crowd:
"The danger has been cleared; everyone can leave now!"
"Cano shouted."
No one left.
She scratched her head, unsure how to convince people.
Just then, a woman in a neat uniform stepped forward:
"I am Ning Lei, the lobby manager. Ladies, may I ask your names?"
"Ah, my name is Kano, and this is Xuan Ning."
The three shook hands. After the negotiation, Ning Lei connected to the broadcast system to transmit her message:
"The danger has passed. Please disembark in an orderly manner, watch your step, and stay away from the insect bodies. Repeat, the danger has passed..."
Zhiyue quickly arrived at the stone-paved passage. The vines were intact, and there was no sign that anyone had broken in.
But he remained vigilant, crushing the vines with one foot and entering the basement.
Before me was pitch black, but when I activated the Reverse Vision, it was a vast expanse of blue.
This is a cave. Apart from the sound of condensation dripping from the cave walls onto the ground, the only other sound is Zhiyue's footsteps on the stairs.
As I walked down the steps, I saw a light coming from the water, and I could vaguely see shimmering waves.
Having reached the end of the stairs, Zhiyue continued walking towards the beam of light.
a woman.
A woman with wine-red hair was standing beside the glowing spring, looking down into the water.
It was an ordinary little spring, surrounded by a wooden rim, and looked like an unremarkable square pool.
Zhiyue continued to approach, and following Shaoqing's gaze, a white-gold waterfall came into view.
His pupils contracted sharply:
"Xintong!"
The woman in burgundy turned around, revealing a gentle smile:
"Oh? It's you."
With a soft thud, a huge rock spike rose from the ground, piercing Shao Qing straight through and leaving her hanging in mid-air.
However, her flesh melted away, flowing onto the ground and reforming into a human shape. Only her trench coat and shirt had three large holes in them, revealing her fair skin.
"You have no patience, little one."
A hint of surprise flashed in Shao Qing's eyes, but it quickly turned back to a playful expression.
Zhiyue frowned:
"You're quite hard to kill. What did you do to Xintong?"
Shao Qing smiled slightly:
"Don't worry, I didn't do anything to her. I just invited her to take a bath in the best pool in Wardwell. If you don't believe me, come and see for yourself."
Shao Qing silently stepped aside.
Zhi Yue cautiously approached the edge of the pool and discovered that Qian Xintong was indeed just floating on the surface of the water, sleeping peacefully.
Shao Qing spread her hands out:
"See? Why would I lie to you?"
Zhiyue did not let his guard down:
"What is your purpose?"
Shao Qing shrugged:
"I've told you everything I can. Just let your girl come here for a bath, that's all."
Zhiyue snorted coldly, clearly not believing it.
Yingzi also arrived, standing with Zhiyue in front and behind, sandwiching Shaoqing in the middle.
He took out the pendant:
"This pendant was just a decoy. Sending Manager Li to 'poison' it was your idea, wasn't it?"
Shao Qing smiled slightly:
"You two really are a pair of brothers with great chemistry."
Yes, I was the one who instructed them.
Moreover, the planting of cycads and the downgrading of security were all arranged after I lured Manager Li.
Zhi Yue glanced at Qian Xintong soaking in the water, and suddenly realized something:
"Oh no!"
He suddenly pulled Qian Xintong out of the water, laid her flat on the edge of the pool, and groped around for a while.
Sure enough, a necklace was pulled out from her body, but the crystal was clear and transparent, with no trace of Shang.
Shao Qing smiled:
"You really think it was Tokiwa who betrayed me? Heh heh heh, it was me. I've already done everything I was supposed to do."
Zhiyue tried the same trick again, wanting to hang her up once more.
However, Shao Qing learned from her mistake and turned into mincemeat, leaving behind a final, poignant message:
"Don't worry, she just took a nap."
I'm really looking forward to our next match!
Zhiyue ignored him, knowing he couldn't keep the other person.
He quietly took care of Qian Xintong, who soon came to her senses from her hallucination.
"Ugh, what's wrong with me... Achoo, it's so cold."
Zhi Yue decisively took off his coat and tossed it to Qian Xintong, then turned around and saw Yingzi walking up the stairs.
"Put these on, be careful not to catch a cold."
Qian Xintong held the dry clothes, paused for a moment, then laughed:
"Thanks."
She changed her clothes.
"So, what happened?"
Zhiyue asked.
Qian Xintong shook his head:
"I can't remember. I only remember getting close to this pool, and then my memory stops."
Zhiyue sighed, it seemed to be that woman's doing.
