Chapter 100 Training Together
If she and Su Ruoyun hadn't been stronger, the situation would definitely have been reversed today.
At that time, it was the two of them who were robbed, penniless, and in a sorry state.
Fortunately, all was well and those three wicked guys ended up having to slink away with their tails between their legs.
Once the three figures had completely disappeared from sight, Su Ruoyun took light steps and slowly walked up to Gao Huohuo.
At this moment, her face was full of sincere gratitude. She bowed deeply to Gao Huohuo and once again expressed her gratitude.
"If it weren't for your righteous help, I fear I would have been in grave danger. I will remember this life-saving grace and repay it tenfold in the future."
Gao Huohuo quickly reached out to help Su Ruoyun up, a hearty smile on his lips, and waved his hand, saying:
"Fellow Daoist Su, you are too kind. We are both cultivators and cannot stand such evil deeds. It is only right that we lend a helping hand."
As she spoke, she dumped all the loot she had just robbed onto the ground, a dazzling array of items.
Gao Huohuo didn't hesitate. With a light tap of her jade hand, she quickly divided the items into four and six parts, taking only four parts for herself and pushing the majority of six parts in front of Su Ruoyun.
This straightforward gesture was like a pebble thrown into a still lake, instantly bringing the two closer together.
The way Su Ruoyun looked at Gao Huohuo subtly added a touch of closeness and warmth, and even a different kind of thought began to sprout in her heart.
Su Ruoyun was originally a rogue cultivator who ventured into the cultivation world alone, experiencing all the hardships along the way.
She had considered finding a travel companion before, but after searching around, none of them were satisfactory.
If she encounters someone with too low a cultivation level, traveling with them will only become a burden for her, and she will have to take care of and protect them in everything.
They're either scheming and manipulative people, so how could she dare to get close to them?
Although the path of cultivation is long and arduous, it is ultimately a solitary and arduous journey.
When venturing out to gain experience and facing unpredictable dangers, having a reliable companion to support you is always more beneficial than harmful.
"Oh, right, I haven't asked your name yet."
Su Ruoyun parted her lips slightly, breaking the momentary silence.
"Gao Huohuo, sometimes also called Bai Qiang."
Gao Huohuo blinked and smiled mischievously, making no attempt to hide anything.
Seeing Gao Huohuo's frankness and straightforwardness, Su Ruoyun's heart stirred, and she became even more determined in her heart.
Her eyes flickered, and she asked tentatively, "Fellow Daoist Gao, will you continue your training?"
Upon hearing this, Gao Huohuo tilted her head slightly, her delicate brows furrowing as she pondered for a moment.
Given the requirements of her special cultivation technique, constantly going out to train is undoubtedly a shortcut to quickly improve her strength, which is extremely suitable for her.
However, his senior brothers and sisters were still waiting not far away. They planned to return to the sect immediately after their mission was over, and he didn't know if they would allow him to venture out on his own.
"I was planning to go and gain experience, but my senior brothers and sisters are still waiting for me. I need to go and meet up with them first."
Upon hearing this, Su Ruoyun's little bit of expectation vanished instantly. Since the other person had fellow disciples with them, they definitely wouldn't travel with her.
Unexpectedly, Gao Huohuo then added:
"However, my senior brothers and sisters are returning to the sect, so I need to tell them. What about you, Fellow Daoist Su? What are your plans?"
Su Ruoyun's eyes suddenly lit up, like stars in the dark night.
My previously dormant heart stirred again, overflowing with anticipation, and I blurted out:
"Fellow Daoist Gao, how about we travel together?"
"Okay!" Gao Huohuo agreed without hesitation.
Thinking that now that his senior brothers and sisters know he has a reliable companion, they should no longer worry and oppose his solo training.
When Gao Huohuo led Su Ruoyun back to the somewhat dilapidated temple, they had traveled at a rapid pace.
Third Senior Sister Ye Lingyu and the others had been waiting there for a long time, their expressions filled with anxiety and worry.
Everyone was busy planning to go out and search for Gao Huohuo's whereabouts. After all, it was really worrying that she was dealing with those five evil cultivators alone, and they were afraid that something might happen to her.
"Junior sister, are you okay?"
Ye Lingyu rushed forward and tightly grasped Gao Huohuo's shoulders with both hands, her beautiful eyes full of concern.
He looked her up and down carefully several times, and only after confirming that she was unharmed did he breathe a sigh of relief.
"Third Senior Sister, don't worry. We ran into a little trouble on the way back, so we were delayed for a while."
Gao Huohuo patted Ye Lingyu's hand reassuringly, a relaxed smile on his lips.
Then he recounted the whole story of how he met Su Ruoyun.
He recounted in great detail how the three men had harbored evil intentions and attempted to rob Su Ruoyun, and how he bravely intervened, leading to a fierce battle between the two sides.
Finally, she changed the subject and revealed her plan to continue training with Su Ruoyun.
Her words were earnest, and she tried her best to persuade everyone not to worry about her anymore.
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes immediately focused on Su Ruoyun, scrutinizing her from head to toe.
Then they began to communicate quietly within their supernatural abilities, and for a time, all sorts of thoughts arose one after another.
"Junior sister, is this person reliable? One should always be wary of strangers!"
"Although with your cultivation level, you are not afraid of ordinary dangers."
But you are still so young, and you are venturing out into the world all by yourself. How can we not worry about you?
Or should we bring another one? Or perhaps we could have our eldest and second eldest brothers come out to keep you company?
This will put our minds at ease a little.
Gao Huohuo secretly groaned upon seeing these messages.
She had finally secured the opportunity to go out and gain experience on her own, so she was unwilling to give it up easily.
Just as she was pondering how to politely decline her senior brothers' suggestions, Lou Chongxiao's message suddenly popped up:
"Junior Sister, are you not even taking me with you?"
"Have you forgotten what you said when we were both in the Qi Refining stage, and we went to the Yin Ghost Sect to cause trouble?"
The Shadow Moon Sect members were all taken aback when this news came out.
His gaze swept back and forth between Gao Huohuo and Lou Chongxiao's faces, and his gossip fire instantly ignited.
Lin Qingxue, in particular, had her eyes shining and looked incredibly eager, almost ready to grab Gao Huohuo and interrogate him thoroughly.
Gao Huohuo felt her head suddenly swell twice as big, filled with helplessness. Her eighth senior brother's words were too easily misunderstood!
He couldn't care less about anything else at the moment and quickly began to explain the supernatural powers.
His words were full of anxiety as he tried to clarify this unfounded "misunderstanding".
At the same time, she took a moment to turn her head and whisper to Su Ruoyun, who was standing somewhat reserved beside her:
"Fellow Daoist Su, please sit down and rest for a while. Please calm down."
"Eighth Senior Brother, you are now close to the threshold of the Golden Core stage, and a breakthrough is just around the corner."
At this time, the most important thing is to stay in seclusion to consolidate one's position, calm one's mind and reflect. It is really not advisable for one to travel around and get tired with me.
If the fatigue of the journey disturbs my mind and delays this crucial breakthrough, then I would be losing more than I gain.
"Once you successfully advance to the Golden Core stage, come find me and we can roam the world together."
Gao Huohuo, with a serious expression, used his supernatural powers to transmit these words to Lou Chongxiao without missing a single one.
Upon seeing these words, Ye Lingyu and Baili Chen exchanged a glance, both secretly plotting in their hearts.
They pondered that since their eighth junior brother could later go find their junior sister...
Following this logic, when the time is right, wouldn't they be able to rightfully go to their junior sister's side and fight side by side again?
Only Lin Qingxue, whose heart was originally excited, was now filled with loneliness, as if shrouded in a dark cloud.
As a cultivator specializing in alchemy, she usually focused on studying pharmacology and pill formulas, and her combat skills were rather ordinary.
I finally managed to come out with everyone for some training, hoping to have some new and exciting experiences, but unexpectedly I have to go back home again.
Moreover, the white crane's injuries are serious and require her long-term, meticulous treatment, so she will likely have little free time to venture out in the future.
Gao Huohuo inadvertently caught a glimpse of Lin Qingxue's forlorn expression, and his thoughts suddenly shifted. He quickly offered words of comfort:
"Don't worry, it won't be long before we're fighting side by side again."
Before that, everyone should put in their best effort and focus wholeheartedly on improving their cultivation level.
