Reborn as Xiao in another world, targeted by the little red bird
Chapter 398 This Child Must Not Be
After Xiao used the Willow-Devouring Earth Dragon to make an example of him, Bai Jie restrained himself a little, but did not give up harassing him.
He said, "Okay, I understand. Let's change the subject."
"?"
Bai Jie fixed his gaze on He Pu Yuan: "If I'm not mistaken, you should be the strongest on your side, right?"
"so?"
Xiao took back the Kabuto. He felt a little uncomfortable for no reason because his gun was being stared at by the monster.
Bai Jie showed a regretful expression and continued, "It's a good time recently. Are you planning to collect some broken wood from the mutant withered willow and leave?"
"What do you mean?" Xiao frowned slightly.
Bai Jie said with great interest, "Blood Crown Ghost Willow, are you interested?"
"Not interested in."
"Hey, don't reject it so quickly. The stuff on it is countless times better than the mutant withered willow."
"Not interested in."
"Yesterday, when I was searching for my way, I stumbled upon some clues about the Blood Crown Ghost Willow. I'm grateful for your help. If you're interested, I can tell you."
Bai Jie continued to try to sell the product, but was met with a cold rejection.
Xiao is not stupid. Considering Bai Jie's character, what's the difference between cooperating with him and asking for trouble?
God knows how much truth and how much falsehood there are in the clues he shared.
Moreover, Xiao did not enter the Black River Desert for the opportunity of the Silent Year. He came to get a doctor for his friend and just happened to pass by here.
If Baihe City and Huozhou were not too far apart, and it was easy to take a detour or even get lost without a guide, Xiao would have driven there by himself using the Wind Wheel and Two E's.
Killing a chicken to scare the monkey is still useful. Bai Jie tried to persuade Xiao for a few minutes, but seeing that Xiao was still unmoved, he did not continue to pester him. Instead, he tactfully ended the topic and returned to his tent.
After Bai Jie left, Ding Shu cleaned up the remains of the Willow-Eating Earth Dragon and returned to the campfire.
He secretly observed Xiao's profile, his mind full of the incoherent words he had just overheard. He struggled for a long time, and finally, unable to resist the torment of curiosity, he cautiously asked, "Boss, what were you talking about just now?"
"He's testing my background." Xiao replied while poking the flames with a stick.
"Probing for details?!" Ding Shu took a deep breath and immediately became alert. "What does he want to do?"
"From the looks of it, he wants to invite me to hunt the Blood-Crowned Ghost Willow together." Xiao turned his head and looked at the tent where Bai Jie lived.
He knew that the other party had not rested, and if his hearing was good, he might be able to hear what he was talking about.
"Boss, you shouldn't have agreed to him, right?" Ding Shu asked.
"No."
Hearing this, Ding Shu immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
He sorted out what had just happened so that he could report to Baili Ling what happened during the night watch during the day.
Nothing happened after that. Bai Jie did not come to harass Xiao again. Instead, Old Man Hu walked out of the tent.
It turned out that because of what happened last night, Old Man Hu had not slept well. When he suddenly realized that no one had come to wake him up to light the fire for a long time, he immediately thought that the situation last night had happened again. He was instantly frightened awake and hurried out of the tent to check.
After explaining the misunderstanding to Old Man Hu, Xiao continued to keep watch and steadily waited until the time to hand over his shift to the third group.
Early in the morning, at the same time, everyone got up, packed their luggage, and started on their journey.
After Baili Ling learned from Ding Shu what happened at night, his face darkened noticeably.
He was originally worried that Xiao would find out that the Yufeng Gate was near the Xuanchi Mansion, and thus would have the idea of visiting his friend, which would lead to unexpected events. However, he did not expect that before he even arrived at the Xuanchi Mansion, someone would suddenly appear and try to kidnap Xiao.
This seriously threatens his ability to complete the mission, and this kid must not be kept.
And today, Baili Ling's plan also made a breakthrough. He successfully broke through Bai Jie's obstruction and got in touch with Yang Ce. He learned from Yang Ce their attitude towards Bai Jie and the relationship between Yang Ce and Bai Jie.
Three years ago, Yang Ce and Bai Jie appeared at the same time in a competition for an opportunity. At that time, Yang Ce severely cheated Bai Jie and almost killed him. Since then, Bai Jie has held a grudge against him. Whenever Yang Ce left the sect, Bai Jie would pester him and make things difficult for him in various ways.
Comparing the strength of the two, Yang's strategy is actually better, but his physical skills and means of self-preservation are far inferior to Bai Jie, which leads to his inability to kill Bai Jie and completely expel this dog-skin plaster.
During these three years, Yang Ce has tried many ways to end this bad relationship, but to this day, Bai Jie is still following him around and causing trouble, which is enough to explain everything.
Therefore, Yang Ce was pessimistic about Baili Ling's proposal to encircle and kill.
He also has several king-level friends, and he has conspired with these friends to surround and kill Bai Jie several times, but it turns out that Bai Jie is a loach, and wind-attribute practitioners of the same level cannot catch him at all.
However, Yang Ce said that if Baili Ling and the others really had the ability to kill Bai Jie, he and his fellow junior brothers and sisters who he took out for training would keep it a secret, and he would also prepare a thank-you gift.
Baili Ling set up a barrier to isolate the eyes and ears and shared this information with the team members.
"Xiao, what do you think?" he asked.
In his team, there is a wind-attribute awakener, Ding Shu, but after Yang Ce emphasized it many times, he felt that Ding Shu was probably unreliable, so he had to place his hopes on the hidden boss Xiao.
Judging from the battle the night before, Xiao is also an awakened wind attribute.
Xiao asked back, "What methods does he have to save his life?"
You won't know until you ask, and you'll be shocked when you ask. Creating clones and substitutes is basic skills, and his body movements and escape techniques are even more advanced. Not to mention the disposable life-saving magic weapons, Yang Ce has seen six or seven non-disposable ones.
The only good news is that Bai Jie doesn't seem to be able to call people.
Even in the most critical moment, Yang Ce did not see Bai Jie call on his fellow disciples or even the elders of the sect to help.
Xiao couldn't help but twitch his lips when he heard this. Bai Jie had a clear understanding of what he was doing.
Despite this, Xiao is still very confident in himself.
Xiao asked again when to take action.
Baili Ling turned his head to look at Bai Jie. The latter seemed to have sensed the danger. He kept his distance from everyone throughout the day and did not harass Yang Ce. At night, he even guarded a fire alone, excluding everyone.
"It's better to do it sooner rather than later. We still need to discuss the specific plan tonight. Killing people during the day is too blatant, so let's do it tomorrow night."
As the night deepened, the plan for the siege was almost complete, and now there was only one last question left.
Do you guys want to sleep tonight?
Although everyone was still maintaining superficial peace, everyone knew exactly what was going on.
Tonight, Yang Ce's people are responsible for keeping watch. If Bai Jie gets desperate at night, given their average strength, there will probably be big problems.
"If you trust me, you can rest at night." Xiao said as he summoned the Wind Scythe Weasel.
"You want to rely on this little thing to give us a warning?" Suddenly, Ren Liang paused, and when he spoke again, his voice became excited, "Wait, this is a wind sickle weasel with the blood of a divine beast?!"
Xiao nodded slightly.
Influenced by the bloodline of the Golden-winged Peng King, this wind sickle weasel is now a three-star divine beast and the only wind sickle weasel of divine beast level in the world.
After becoming Xiao's follower, it not only achieved breakthroughs in its bloodline limit, but also in its speed and ability to sense danger. Although it could not defeat Bai Jie, it was still able to warn Bai Jie of his attack in advance and give everyone time to react.
However, what Xiao didn't expect was that after everyone saw his Wind Scythe Weasel, the style of the painting suddenly went awry.
The five of them stopped discussing whether to go to sleep and instead started teasing the wind sickle weasel. Even the three sect disciples who hadn't gone to rest yet heard the noise and ran over to watch.
There was no way, this was the first time they had heard of the Wind Sickle Weasel, a divine beast.
In the end, the Wind Scythe Weasel was so frightened by everyone's enthusiasm that it directly crawled into Xiao's clothes, completely lacking the aura that a divine beast should have.
Have a good night's sleep.
When they woke up the next day, they discovered that two people were missing from the camp.
Yang Ce and Bai Jie.
At the same time, Xiao also discovered that his wind sickle weasel was missing.
