The Whale in the Mountains
Chapter 224 So They're Siblings
Hearing Chen Xiao's words, Li Qin looked over with an expression of disbelief.
Chen Xiao smiled, "I wouldn't say I know him well, but we've met once. I and Uncle Gu fought a Zangjian Pavilion outer disciple down the mountain, and he was the one who warned me to be extra careful of Zangjian Pavilion."
Gu Zhendong also remembered that waiter, but he didn't realize at the time that he was the son of his deceased good brother.
He said with emotion, "This is probably fate. By the way, Qin'er, why is your brother working in the city, while you are hiding in the mountains? Is it to guard the Maha Gate?"
Li Qin gave a wry smile, "The Maha Gate is so dilapidated, what is there to guard?"
Then she explained, "Actually, from the day we saw our family's massacre, my brother and I made a poisonous vow that we would not be human if we didn't avenge this blood feud."
"From that day on, we, as siblings, have been practicing diligently, hoping that one day we can avenge our hatred."
"But before we can take revenge, we have to live, and survival costs money. My brother said that my cultivation talent is above his, so he resolutely gave up cultivation and earned money for me to cultivate."
"It's just a pity that after so many years, we still haven't been able to avenge our hatred. Originally, the assassination of Wang Xingde was the best opportunity, but it fell short and failed, and also attracted the pursuit of Zangjian Pavilion. I was also helpless, so I hid in this mountain, just to escape the pursuit."
Gu Zhendong sighed again, "You two siblings have really suffered. However, I remember that the Maha Gate is good at soul summoning and puppetry. How can you drive this spirit fox?"
Li Qin looked blank and said, "Uncle Gu, I'm not very clear about this either. It's just that I'm naturally more friendly with animals, and I met this spirit fox, Xiao Hei, so I concentrated on cultivating this path. However, I haven't abandoned the family's inherited techniques, but even my father's cultivation was helpless against Zangjian Pavilion. I want to avenge myself, and I'm afraid it's a distant dream."
"I've calculated that Zangjian Pavilion has a large number of people, and that Wang Xingde is still a Huajing (Transformation Realm) martial arts grandmaster. I must cultivate to the Jindan (Golden Core) Realm to crush them."
The Jindan Realm sounds easy, but it's difficult to do.
There are countless cultivators in this world, but how many great powers can truly cultivate to the Jindan Realm? They are as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns!
Although Li Qin's spirit fox Xiao Hei has the cultivation of the Jindan Realm, it has not yet developed its intelligence after all, and its strength cannot be exerted even one or two tenths, which is also useless.
Gu Zhendong said, "Qin'er, you don't have to work so hard. With Uncle Gu here, I will definitely help you avenge your hatred!"
Then he looked at Chen Xiao a little embarrassedly: "Chen Xiao, I've given you a big job, you won't blame Uncle Gu, will you?"
Chen Xiao smiled slightly: "Uncle Gu, what are you talking about? What's more, I'm here for the Seven Fiends Blood Banner. Since this treasure is in Zangjian Pavilion, even if Zangjian Pavilion is a dragon's pool or a tiger's den, I will break into it!"
Li Qin frowned slightly: "You also want to **** the Seven Fiends Blood Banner?"
Seeing that Li Qin's face was unhappy, Gu Zhendong quickly explained, "Qin'er, Chen Xiao just wants to borrow the Seven Fiends Blood Banner to summon his mother's soul, you don't have to worry."
Li Qin shook her head: "I'm not worried about anything. The Maha Gate has declined, and the Seven Fiends Blood Banner is not important to me. If he can really **** the Seven Fiends Blood Banner back from Wang Xingde, that's his ability. It's just that he is so young, Uncle Gu, are you being too hasty to bet your treasure on him?"
Li Qin is straightforward and doesn't beat around the bush at all, so her words are not very pleasant to hear.
Gu Zhendong laughed, with a look of pride on his face: "Qin'er, you don't know something. Don't look at Chen Xiao's young age, but his skills are very amazing. To tell you the truth, just before we set off for Qingcheng, he had just killed a Jindan Realm grandmaster!"
"What?"
Li Qin looked incredulous, then curled her lips, "Uncle Gu, are you lying to me?"
Gu Zhendong said with a serious expression, "Qin'er, seeking revenge from Zangjian Pavilion is not a child's play, how could I brag about this kind of thing!"
Although Gu Zhendong had already said that, Li Qin was still dubious.
Li Qin could see that Chen Xiao had some skills, after all, she had never seen anyone who could catch Xiao Hei so easily before.
But he looked more like a martial artist. It was difficult for Li Qin to accept that he could kill a Jindan Realm great power.
Chen Xiao smiled slightly: "You can see how strong I am with your own eyes. It's not too late, let's go down the mountain now. I'm going to Zangjian Pavilion to get the Seven Fiends Blood Banner."
Li Qin was stunned when she heard the words: "Go down the mountain now? It's already dark, and the mountain road is so difficult to walk..."
Chen Xiao smiled playfully: "What, are you afraid?"
"Afraid? I'm worried that you're afraid!"
Li Qin curled her lips, then stepped forward.
Gu Zhendong couldn't help asking, "Qin'er, what are you going to do?"
"Didn't you say we're going down the mountain now? Hurry up and go!"
Li Qin didn't turn her head back, and after a few minutes, she was already hundreds of meters away.
Chen Xiao could also see that this girl wanted to test their foot strength.
He and Gu Zhendong looked at each other: "Uncle Gu, let's follow up too!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Xiao had already rushed out.
"Hey, hey, you two young people, wait for this old guy!"
Gu Zhendong was left behind, so angry that he kept shouting.
It's easy to go up the mountain, and it's even easier to go down the mountain.
In less than half an hour, the three had arrived at the foot of the mountain.
This place is sparsely populated. The car Chen Xiao rented before was still parked at the foot of the mountain, and no one had touched it.
Li Qin glanced at Chen Xiao: "It seems that you are not bad, you can actually keep up with my pace."
Li Qin grew up in this mountain since she was a child, and she is very familiar with the mountain road. In addition, she has extraordinary strength, so ordinary people can't catch up with her at all.
It was by relying on this ability that she got rid of the pursuit of Zangjian Pavilion.
Chen Xiao smiled slightly, without speaking.
In fact, he didn't use his full strength at all. If he used his full strength, it wouldn't take half an hour, ten minutes would be enough!
The three of them drove back to the city. On the way, Li Qin called her brother Li Mu and said she was going to see him.
Li Qin didn't mention Gu Zhendong and Chen Xiao, just to give her brother a surprise.
But after hearing that his sister was coming, Li Mu said in a low voice, "Don't enter the city yet, wait for me at the old place outside the city."
After speaking, he hung up the phone without waiting for Li Qin to ask.
The old place in Li Mu's mouth is an abandoned factory in the suburbs.
Chen Xiao and the others arrived first and waited for several hours. It was midnight when Li Mu finally arrived late.
However, when he saw Chen Xiao and Gu Zhendong, his face suddenly showed an expression of shock beyond words: "Why haven't you left yet? Sister, why are you with them?"
