He had no idea how the personalities of the two people before him changed so quickly . They looked so harmless and their words had been gentle and polite earlier on . But now, they were like starving beasts who had seen their prey .
Pei Qingfeng walked forward and retrieved his sword from the man’s shoulders . Without anything to pin him to the wall, the man collapsed to the ground .
The guy had lost all his earlier arrogance and was now kneeling on the ground and begging for forgiveness, “Spare me please! I have eyes but failed to recognize Mt . Tai . My subordinates are all dead! Please, please let me live!”
Pei Qingfeng silently looked at Bai Luochu . Afterall, she was the biggest victim in this battle .
When Pei Qingfeng looked at her, she knew that he was waiting for her to make a decision . If it had been another young lady, she might have chosen to spare him . Unfortunately, Bai Luochu wasn’t a normal young lady . “If we spare him, there will be no end to our troubles . ”
Pei Qingfeng didn’t dally around and with a few slashes, he took care of everything .
Only after everything had settled down did Bai Luochu recall the scene during the battle .
“What happened to you earlier? You seemed to have turned into another person altogether . . . ” Though Bai Luochu felt that her thinking was a little weird, she felt that she had no choice but to clarify the matter with Pei Qingfeng .
Pei Qingfeng felt uneasy after hearing Bai Luochu's question . Even though the aura he emitted previously was terrifyingly strong, he had no choice but to use that power . It was the only shot he had at saving her .
“Did I scare you?” Pei Qingfeng felt wronged and he was certain that Bai Luochu was frightened by him .
Bai Luochu felt guilty as she looked at the tall and strong Pei Qingfeng acting like a coward around her all the time . “I wasn’t scared at all… However, I feel a little guilty for making you turn into a monster…”
After hearing what Bai Luochu said, a smile broke out on Pei Qingfeng’s face . He never thought that Bai Luochu would show so much concern for him!
“If anything happens in the future, I don’t want you to bear the burden alone . We should face the problem together . . . ” Bai Luochu felt that she should make her stand clear . Even though they were not together yet, it couldn’t be denied that Bai Luochu wasn’t touched by his actions .
Pei Qingfeng nodded his head happily .
Turning around, Bai Luochu prepared to leave .
“Let’s go, I can’t stand the stench of blood in here any longer . The path ahead should no longer be accessible, let’s just take the treasure in front of us and prepare to leave this place . ”
Even though Bai Luocho wasn’t able to find the Field Pearl Flower, she didn’t plan on leaving empty handed . After all, she had suffered so much along the way, if she didn’t take anything before leaving, she would have made a wasted trip .
On the other hand, Pei Qingfeng wasn’t able to comprehend the reason behind Bai Luochu giving up on the search for the Field Pearl Flower . Wasn’t that her reason for coming here?
Sensing that Pei Qingfeng wasn’t moving, Bai Luochu turned her head towards him . That was when she realized the reason behind his hesitation .
Instead of explaining her actions, she simply said, “It’s up to fate . ” Raising her feet, she started walking towards the treasure .
Despite cracking his head, Pei Qingfeng couldn’t understand the reason why she was unwilling to continue looking for the Field Pearl Flower . However, seeing as she had no intentions to stop, Pei Qingfeng hastily followed behind her . After all, her safety was more important to him .
Only after some time passed did he suddenly understand the true meaning behind her words . Bai Luochu had mentioned earlier that heavenly treasures would only appear for those fated to obtain it . Since it hadn’t shown itself, it could only mean that they were not the fated ones .
Bai Luochu didn’t stand on ceremony any longer and directly took all the treasures present in the passageway and stuffed it into the spiritual ring she had prepared .
Looking at the spiritual ring on Bai Luochu’s finger, Pei Qingfeng felt that he had seen it somewhere before . It was too bad he couldn’t think of where he saw it before . “This spiritual ring looks familiar . ”
Bai Luochu's hands froze as she didn’t know how to explain herself .
“Don’t tell me you stole this spiritual ring from the Green Flame Eagle . . . ”
Bai Luochu heaved a sigh of relief after hearing Pei Qingfeng’s guess . This was a spirit ring she owned in her past life and she was afraid he would recognize it .
“Nonsense! I only managed to buy this ring after saving up for a long time . I wanted to buy some medicinal ingredients with the money I saved but this ring caught my eye . ”
As for the matter of her stealing from the Green Flame Eagle, Bai Luochu neither denied nor confirmed it . Everyone probably had an idea of what happened and she couldn’t be bothered enough to clarify their doubts .
Since she stepped into the ruins, she felt that something was off . No matter how she racked her brains, she wasn’t able to put her finger on it .
She only realized what it was when she left the passageway and saw Lu Wenshu .
“May I ask who Young Master Lu is waiting for?”
