Dual cultivation makes you stronger, everyone else is a prodigy, and I'm the only one slacking

Yu Luoning stood there, stunned for a long time.

What is this? I hate it when someone only says half of what they mean.

She stared suspiciously at Bai Rongling's back, wondering what Cui Xiu was hiding from her.

However, judging from Bai Rongling's attitude, she must know something.

If you ask Cui Xiu directly, given her personality, she probably won't be willing to tell you the truth.

Bai Rongling is also a cunning person, and it's incredibly difficult to get any information out of her. Damn it!

Forget it, take one step at a time.

The two continued walking forward. After an unknown amount of time, Bai Rongling suddenly stopped, and Yu Luoning almost bumped into his back.

Just as Bai Rongling stopped, a faint, transparent spiritual light rose up around the two of them.

This is not an ordinary soundproof array, but a high-level array of some kind of concealment barrier used by the Bai family.

Seeing his reaction, Yu Luoning immediately became alert and asked telepathically, "What's wrong?"

Bai Rongling's voice rang out directly in Yu Luoning's mind. He said, "The three people in front are two early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators and one mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator."

Yu Luoning's eyes lit up because she saw it too.

Ahead was a cave, and one of the people there was holding a Spirit-Seeking Compass. He seemed to have discovered something.

As for what they were looking for, Yu Luoning didn't care at all; what she cared about was the identities of these three people.

The Wen family!

Very well, you've run into the line of fire.

There is spatial turbulence at the entrance of the ancient city, so these people have probably been separated from the others.

A good opportunity to get started.

Bai Rongling's gaze swept lightly over Yu Luoning's eyebrows and eyes. Without her saying a word, she instantly understood what Yu Luoning was thinking.

He transmitted his voice, "Don't do anything rash. In our current state, dealing with the three of them is a bit tricky."

Yu Luoning sighed. Of course, she knew that she had just returned from the brink of death, and Bai Rongling also had hidden injuries. Now was not the time to confront her head-on.

But she just couldn't stand it.

Yu Luoning said coldly, "The Wen family deserves some credit for the injuries on my body."

A glint of light flashed in Bai Rongling's eyes.

Just then, the conversation of the three people could be heard. One of them stared at the compass in his hand and said, "There's no mistake. The Spirit Finding Compass has pointed here three times in a row."

"But there's nothing here," the other person said.

At this moment, an elder of the Wen family said, "Phoenix Ancient City is an ancient relic. It is not surprising that there are illusion formations and spatial folding formations. Let's study it further."

Yu Luoning heard the word "treasure" from the shadows but remained calm.

Whether it's a treasure or not doesn't matter, I just don't want the other person to get it.

Thinking of his precious black sword and the Immortal Binding Rope, he felt even more heartbroken.

It's unclear whether it was snatched away by the white-haired woman or ended up in the hands of the Wen family head.

In short, we must get it back.

As dusk slowly fell, the surrounding light dimmed.

Bai Rongling noticed Yu Luoning's absent-minded expression.

He glanced at her, a hint of helplessness in his eyes, and said, "I know what you're thinking. Let's leave everything to fate."

"God willing?"

Yu Luoning was stunned for a moment, a look of surprise flashing across her face.

Bai Rongling raised an eyebrow, raised her hand, and took out a six-colored die from her Qiankun bag.

He said succinctly, "One, two, three, for the minor one, let's pretend we didn't see it and continue on our way."

"Four, five, six, that's the big deal, let's give it a shot."

Yu Luoning smiled. "Your suggestion is good, but let me make it clear beforehand: no spiritual power allowed."

Bai Rongling nodded.

He slightly raised his hand and tossed the six-colored dice onto the ground.

The two of them crouched down to examine it.

The dice rolled to the ground under a leaf, and Bai Rongling reached out and gently lifted the leaf.

Yu Luoning glanced at it and saw three points.

"According to the rules of the martial arts world, it's usually best two out of three."

"Your turn just now was on me, so I should at least have to throw it once."

Bai Rongling raised her eyebrows but did not stop her.

Yu Luoning exhaled a breath, tossed it into the air, and unsurprisingly, it hit a bright and dazzling spot.

Bai Rongling chuckled lightly, "It is fate, let's go."

Yu Luoning stared at that red dot for several seconds.

She suddenly squatted down, reached out and flipped the dice over with a snap.

Directly above 1 o'clock, 6 o'clock

Bai Rongling: "..."

Yu Luoning was satisfied and smiled, "Alright, it's six o'clock now."

Bai Rongling was silent for a moment, then said, "Didn't you just say that cheating was not allowed?"

"I said you're not allowed to use spiritual power."

"..."

"I only used my hands, is there a problem?"

Bai Rongling pursed her lips. "So... this is what you meant by destiny?"

Yu Luoning clapped her hands and stood up, saying confidently, "Of course, if fate doesn't go my way, then I'll change it. Haven't you heard the saying, 'My fate is in my own hands, not in the hands of heaven'?"

He put the dice away and suddenly said, "Let's go."

Yu Luoning was greatly disappointed. "Huh? They're leaving already? They're really not going to rob us?"

"Weren't you trying to steal the deal? Aren't you going to follow suit?"

Yu Luoning smiled and quickly followed.

The two found a more secluded and easier place to hide, but fortunately, their advanced concealment techniques did not arouse the suspicion of the three.

Before we knew it, it had gotten completely dark.

The ancient trees in the forest blocked out the sun. Occasionally, a few rays of moonlight would seep through the gaps in the treetops.

At some unknown time, as countless moonbeams fell upon that cave, rustling sounds came from the depths of the cave. Soon after, a large number of strange creatures flew out of the cave.

They swarmed out of their nests, hovering above the cave, absorbing the moonlight bit by bit.

The moonlight fell on them and instantly turned into starlight, flowing into their bodies.

At this moment, the Mysterious Spirit Disc began to spin wildly. The three members of the Wen family were overjoyed. They stared at the countless moth demons and said, "Now is the time. While these moth demons are absorbing the moonlight, let's go in and scout ahead."

The three of them then quietly slipped into the cave.

Yu Luoning and Bai Rongling exchanged a glance and followed closely behind.

The cave twists and turns deep inside, and the further Yu Luoning went, the more she seemed to feel the phoenix bloodline within her stirring.

She had planned to snatch anything that belonged to the Wen family.

Unexpectedly, what they discovered was related to the phoenix bloodline.

Bai Rongling, her hair as fine as silk, glanced at the flushed face and unusual aura of the woman out of the corner of her eye, and asked calmly, "Do you know what's inside?"

Yu Luoning said, "I felt that thing was very familiar and dear, and my blood was pumping."

Bai Rongling didn't stop: "Then take it down."

Yu Luoning was stunned for a moment.

"But didn't you just say you were leaving it to fate? You weren't planning to fight for it?"

Bai Rongling: "Didn't you personally turn fate to six? Six is ​​the greatest, so we're guaranteed to win this round."

Upon hearing this, Yu Luoning burst out laughing.
