Chapter 45 White Rose = Robbery?
"Fifth Senior Brother, it's your turn. Quickly take out your treasure-hunting talisman and let it lead us to find treasure."
Fifth Senior Brother Baili Chen took out a talisman from his storage bag, infused it with spiritual power, and the talisman flew off in one direction.
Gao Huohuo and the others followed behind the talisman and soon encountered a large patch of spiritual herbs.
When the seventh senior sister stepped forward, she saw that they were all the ingredients she needed for refining pills, so everyone stepped forward to help her pick them.
To prevent any sneak attacks, Gao Huohuo even called out Ziying to help them keep watch.
Didn't they say she'd have a three-hundred-round battle with someone next time? Why is she doing guard duty again?
Just as Zi Ying was about to complain, a red fire bee flew over from not far away.
Gao Huohuo casually tossed the whip in her hand to her and said confidently:
"Purple Shadow, your chance to fight three hundred rounds has come! You'd better seize it! Go for it!"
After saying that, he busied himself picking spiritual herbs again. As for the Crimson Fire Bees, Purple Shadow was enough to deal with them.
The whip crackled through the air, leaving the red fire bees dazed and disoriented.
Seeing that the spiritual herbs they had guarded for so long were about to be harvested, the Crimson Fire Bee angrily breathed a flame at the group.
Although Gao Huohuo kept his head down, he kept a close eye on the situation with his divine sense.
Seeing the flames coming at her, and having no defensive magical artifacts, she could step forward to block them, but what would happen afterward?
When everyone asked her how she wasn't injured, what was she supposed to say?
In that instant of thought, Gao Huohuo made a decision. He channeled a burst of spiritual energy into the flames, and the Seven Steps Lock was finally activated.
Gao Huohuo ran to the side with a trail of flames, making it look as if the fire was chasing after her.
Lou Chongxiao was not worried when he saw this scene; instead, he laughed out loud.
He received a roll of eyes from everyone before he hurriedly began to explain.
"Senior brothers and sisters, look! Isn't that Huo Huo chasing Huo Huo?!"
Upon hearing this, everyone realized it was indeed true. However, since their junior sister was still running with the fire, they couldn't laugh. But what could they do if they couldn't help themselves?
Gao Huohuo was still wondering whether she should try to disperse the flames with a punch, or let the fire burn her when they weren't paying attention.
Then the purple figure rushed over and swallowed the flames whole.
"Purple Shadow, when did you become so fierce? You even dare to devour flames?"
"Now you know how powerful you are, Lady Purple Shadow. Don't worry, I'll protect you from now on."
Hearing Zi Ying's arrogant words, Gao Huohuo felt for the first time that she seemed to have misunderstood these two semi-divine artifacts.
Fortunately, the crisis was averted, and the others finished harvesting the spiritual herbs. Gao Huohuo collected the corpses of the Crimson Fire Bees and continued onward.
"Junior Sister, why did you put its corpse away too?"
"Eighth Senior Brother, all the senior brothers in our Shadow Moon Sect are so powerful and know a little bit about everything. The things on the monster corpse can be used for either alchemy or weapon crafting."
Anyway, they'll all be useful. Pack them up and take them home to look at later.
Soon, guided by the treasure-hunting talisman, the group went to another location.
Before we even got close, we saw several monsters lying there, basking in the sun with an air of nonchalance.
Gao Huohuo hurriedly reminded everyone to take out their invisibility talismans and stick them on, so that they could sneakily take the treasure.
This time, the treasure is a section of tree trunk, which is a great material for refining weapons.
Gao Huohuo thought that even if he sawed off that section of tree trunk, it would take some time and would definitely be exposed.
After discussing it with everyone, she and Ziying decided to lure away the monsters first, and then they would take the opportunity to retrieve the treasure.
"Junior Sister, it's too dangerous for you to lure away the monsters alone. I'll go with you."
Before the senior brother could finish speaking, Gao Huohuo rejected his idea. She had a system that allowed her to act recklessly, but the senior brother didn't.
"Senior Brother, if we both leave, there will be no one to protect them. You are the strongest in our Shadow Moon Sect. What if we encounter other people?"
Thinking of the sneak attacks used by righteous cultivators, Chu Lingchuan was persuaded by Gao Huohuo.
Gao Huohuo quickly rushed to the monsters, punched one of them, and ran away.
The monster was still in a daze, but by the time it realized what was happening, Gao Huohuo had already run far away.
The monster that took the punch was clearly running at the back, and its body was noticeably uncoordinated.
Lou Chongxiao was still complaining from the side: This monster is too good at acting! Junior Sister is such a young girl, how heavy can her punch be? Why does it have to act like that?
As soon as he finished speaking, he received looks from the other seven people as if he were an idiot.
What does that mean? What did they mean by the way they looked at him? Was he wrong?
Once Gao Huohuo lured the monster away, the other seven people hurriedly went to take action, while Lou Chongxiao was still wondering what was going on.
"Junior brother, come and help me quickly!"
Lou Chongxiao only came to his senses when his fourth senior brother called out to him.
On the other side, Gao Huohuo led the demon beast out and quickly disappeared from sight.
She realized that running too fast was not an option; what if these monsters realized they couldn't catch her and retreated?
So Gao Huohuo took immediate action and used the Seven-Step Lock to bind the three demonic beasts, but now she had to keep running forward.
The cultivators who passed by her all felt that Gao Huohuo was somewhat insane.
What kind of good person would tie a demon beast to their body, drag it along the ground, and run forward without releasing the spell?
Anyone who didn't know better would think she was doing some kind of physical training here.
"Which sect is this guy from? Did he suffer a cultivation mishap and go mad?"
"Who knows? And how could a little girl like her drag three huge monsters and run so fast? Doesn't she get tired?"
The two passing evil cultivators, through this question and answer, ended up uniting the two groups and traveling together.
Seeing that the three monsters on the ground were being dragged half to death, Gao Huohuo stopped, turned around, and punched them three times.
The monster was beyond dead; it could be said that it was worked to death.
After collecting the three corpses, Gao Huohuo headed back.
As we approached, we heard the sounds of fighting ahead.
What's going on? Someone's actually coming to cause trouble?
The eldest brother, second brother, third sister, and eighth brother surrounded the other four, while the fifth brother took the opportunity to throw talismans out.
The fourth senior brother took out another cover and put the four of them inside, while the sixth and seventh senior sisters threw out pills.
Overall, this team has a reasonable division of labor and integrates offense and defense.
Suddenly, they heard their sixth senior sister, Zhao Feiyue, shout, "They're going to steal the Golden Nanmu Tree!"
What the hell? She worked so hard to lead the monsters ahead, only to have someone else steal her spoils? She can't stand for that.
Gao Huohuo unleashed a burst of spiritual energy, knocking the righteous cultivator who was assembling the golden camphor tree branches to the ground.
He rushed forward and delivered another punch, snatching the man's storage bag back and stuffing all its contents into his own storage ring.
Then he kicked the man away and started cursing:
"You bastards, you want to pick up a bargain without even opening your eyes? Who do you think I am? We've been working so hard all this time, and you're just having it easy."
"You guys love to steal other people's things, right? Well, I'll rob you of everything. Let's see how you manage to stay in this secret realm for a month!"
The bracelets on their wrists turned into ropes, instantly binding all seven people together.
Before Gao Huohuo could speak, Lou Chongxiao reached out and groped the man all over, taking everything he could get his hands on.
Aside from the weapons being contracted out and unusable, everything else was taken away.
Gao Huohuo stepped forward and looked at the group provocatively, saying, "Remember this well, I am Bai Qiang, the Bai of white and the Qiang of rose."
Then each person knocked everyone unconscious with a single punch.
"Junior Sister, is there any special meaning behind your name?"
"I'm robbing you for free!"
