Assemble

Jiuer looked back at the ground until she could no longer see her mother Chen Yuanyuan. She turned around and felt the uniquely smooth and fast flying of the Skylaurel Crow. She curiously stretched out her hand and stroked the feathers on crow's neck.

Xiao Yi looked at Jiuer's innocent manners and smelled her faintly unusual breath. When he looked down at her neck leaning over, Xiao Yi felt suffocated once again.

He quickly turned his gaze and silently circulated the True Scripture of Mystic Medicine to calm his mind.

He couldn't help but feel ashamed in his heart, but he also admired Jiuer's unique pure charm from the bottom of his heart.

There was a kind of beauty that didn't need too much decoration, and even didn't need any deliberate performance. With every movement, her beauty was already natural and soul-stirring.

Without a doubt, Jiuer's beauty was inherently natural. In fact, it was as if she herself did not even know how beautiful she was.

She played with the Skylaurel Crow's feathers for a while. The warm flame-like feathers seemed to make Jiuer feel very comfortable. Gradually, her eyes blurred and she began to doze off.

She twisted her body and finally found a comfortable position on Xiao Yi's chest. Then she curled up in Xiao Yi's arms and fell asleep quietly.

The stunning face was right in front of Xiao Yi's chest. When he lowered his head, he could even see the fine hairs on her face clearly. Xiao Yi's heart couldn't help but throb. However, he didn't feel the slightest bit of disrespect for Jiuer. He only cared for her.

He reached out and wrapped his arm around her soft shoulders, making it more comfortable for her to sleep. Xiao Yi also looked straight ahead and urged the Skylaurel Crow to hurry to the gathering point of the Westernmost Land.

According to Liu Zhen's route, the Skylaurel Crow had flown for a few hours before finally reaching the place that Liu Zhen had mentioned.

From a distance, Xiao Yi had already seen the pudgy figure that only belonged to Liu Zhen. Beside him were four other people.

With a sweep of his Divine Awareness, Xiao Yi was shocked that the four people next to Liu Zhen were all Nascent Soul Realm Realm experts. Even Liu Zhen himself had increased his cultivation greatly and reached the Fake Nascent Soul Realm Realm in one fell swoop. It seemed that Liu Zhen also had a fortuitous encounter during this period.

The Skylaurel Crow slowly descended and stopped in front of the five people.

His Divine Awareness swept across the area once more and saw the four people who walked alongside Liu Zhen.

The one on the far left was an old woman with white hair. She was very short, with black clothes, a stooped body, and a deep cleavage on her face. Each of her wrinkles was thick enough to pinch a fly to death. Her dry lips were flat, and her teeth were black and yellow, broken and incomplete. Her sparse white hair was wantonly swaying in the wind, making her look extremely miserable.

This old woman looked like she was about to reach the end of her lifespan.

However, her cultivation base was terrifying. Just like Xiao Yi, she was at the late stage of the Nascent Soul Realm Realm. Furthermore, she seemed to be on the verge of breaking through to the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm Realm.

Sensing Xiao Yi's probing, the old woman's body swayed slightly back and forth. A pair of narrowed eyes turned toward Xiao Yi's side as though nothing had happened. However, a light shot out from her eyes the moment her eyelids were lifted.

Xiao Yi glanced at her and knew that the strength of this old woman was extraordinary. If he did not take the magical treasure into account, he would definitely be no match for her in a one-on-one fight.

The person next to the old woman was an exceptional young man dressed like a scholar in ancient times. He wore a white robe, and his bearing was extraordinary. His feather fan's silk scarf was fluttering in the wind, making him look like an immortal. He seemed to be only about 30 years old, but his cultivation was also at the late stage of the Nascent Soul Realm Realm.

But when Xiao Yi looked at the person next to the scholar, he could only vaguely see that it was a man. He was shrouded in black Qi, and his face could not be seen clearly. His cultivation was also at the middle stage of the Nascent Soul Realm Realm.

However, the person on the far right looked much more ordinary. He was dressed like a normal man in an old black suit. He wore a pair of white stiletto shoes and an old leathered briefcase on his back. He even wore a pair of big black-framed glasses on his face. He looked like a rural teacher from a movie in the seventies and eighties.

However, his cultivation was still at the terrifying middle stage of the Nascent Soul Realm Realm.

The scene of these four strange-shaped people standing side by side caused Xiao Yi to be in a trance. He didn't know where Liu Zhen had dug these strange people out. These old Nascent Soul Realm Realm masters were all god-like existences in the world. Liu Zhen had drawn four of them at once.

Before he could think about it, Liu Zhen had already strode up to Xiao Yi. He was still smiling. He saluted Xiao Yi with cupped fists and said with a smile, "Xiao Yi, you're here!"

"Liu Zhen!" Xiao Yi also cupped his fists. Then, he leaned over and shook Jiuer's shoulder gently. He pulled her out of her sleep and called her name.

"Hmm?" Jiuer groaned and woke up. She opened her eyes, took Xiao Yi's hand, and stepped down from Skylaurel Crow. She steadied herself and looked sleepily at the crowd in front of her.

"Hiss!"

"Hiss!"

The next moment, Xiao Yi heard a few gasps at the same time. Looking at the people in front of him and seeing Jiuer's beautiful face, he was shocked. Xiao Yi could not see the expression of the person surrounded by the black Qi clearly. As for the other four people, even the old woman was deeply shocked by Jiuer's appearance. She opened her eyes wide and looked at her in surprise.

Being stared at by these people, Jiuer's eyes were still confused. However, her hand gently held Xiao Yi's hand, and she took a small step back behind Xiao Yi.

Seeing this, Xiao Yi secretly shook his head. It seemed that every time he saw Jiuer, he had a feeling that he almost suffocated. It was not because he was not calm enough, but because Jiuer's natural pure beauty was too soul-stirring.

Seeing that everyone was still looking straight at Jiuer, Xiao Yi coughed lightly and said to Liu Zhen in a clear voice, "Liu Zhen, who are these friends of yours? Aren't you going to introduce them to us?"

Hearing Xiao Yi's cough, Liu Zhen finally woke up from a trance and hurriedly moved his eyes away from Jiuer's face. In an instant, his big face turned red. He lowered his head and laughed in a panic. He turned to the four people behind him and immediately introduced Xiao Yi, "That, Xiao Yi, this, this is the Old Mother of He Mountain, an old friend of my master Mr. Xuanzhen. This is my senior aunt. Senior aunt, this is who I have mentioned several times. Xiao Yi, Mr. Xiao."

Xiao Yi made an obeisance by cupping one hand in the other before his chest and immediately said, "It's the Old Mother of He Mountain. I've heard a lot about you!"

Jiuer also followed Xiao Yi and gently greeted the old lady of He Mountain.

Old Mother of He Mountain's eyes glinted. She shifted her gaze from Xiao Yi to Jiuer, then shifted from Jiuer to Xiao Yi. She hunched over and nodded slightly. This was enough for her to greet Xiao Yi.

Seeing this, Xiao Yi didn't take it seriously. When a person reached the Nascent Soul Realm Realm, he would have all kinds of quirks. Xiao Yi had seen many old monsters in his previous life, so he had seen all kinds of situations. Naturally, he wouldn't take the attitude of the Old Mother of He Mountain seriously.

Liu Zhen did not dare to look at Jiuer again. He lowered his head and looked at the scholar. He introduced Xiao Yi, saying, "Xiao Yi, this is Brother Bai, Bai Mengxi. He's a secret cultivator in Zhongnan Mountain and has a life-long friendship with me. Brother Bai, this is Mr. Xiao."

However, the scholar cultivator named Bai Mengxi acted as if he hadn't heard Liu Zhen's words. His eyes were full of shock from the moment Jiuer stepped dowr, and they never left Jiuer.

Now, seeing Xiao Yi clasping his hands in front of him, Bai Mengxi felt as if he had fallen into a dream. He took a deep breath and said in a trembling voice, "This lady should only exist in heaven. Why did she fall from the sky? Miss, may I ask your name?"

The moment these words left his mouth, Xiao Yi couldn't help feeling furious. Even if he didn't treat Jiuer as his dual cultivation partner, the man in front of him was obviously extremely disrespectful for asking Jiuer's name the moment he spoke.

"Haha, Brother Bai is an elegant man. Why are you so abrupt today? It can be seen that Xiao Yi traveled with such a beautiful lady this time. It is a great test of our willpower, ah ha ha!"

Hearing Liu Zhen's words, Bai Mengxi's face turned slightly red. He immediately bowed deeply to Jiuer and said leisurely, "Miss, you're so beautiful that I'm shocked. I'm too abrupt. Please don't blame me, Miss."

"I don't blame you." Jiuer said softly.

As soon as the soft voice came out, it was obvious that Bai Mengxi's whole body trembled again. However, he didn't say anything this time. He immediately bowed and stood up, but his eyes still couldn't help turning with Jiuer.

Liu Zhen ignored him. Next, he introduced the man covered surrounded by black Qi to Xiao Yi. "Xiao Yi, this is Senior Brother Liao Fan of Black Dragon Mountain. His cultivation methods have been different from ours since he was a child. However, he's definitely not a devil cultivator. He's also the one who went to the ruins with me last time. His strength is extraordinary."

"Greetings, Brother Liao!" Xiao Yi cupped his fists. It was true that he had come into such close contact with this man. Even though this man was shrouded in black Qi, there wasn't a trace of Devil Energy on him. It was obvious that something was amiss with his cultivation method. Perhaps, he was simply unwilling to reveal his true face.

Just as he had said, Nascent Soul Realm Realm experts had many quirks. Naturally, Xiao Yi wouldn't pay attention to these details.

In the end, Liu Zhen did not introduce the last countryside teacher-like cultivator. He only told Xiao Yi that his name was Liu Zhijun and he was from the East.

This man's name was also very common.

However, Xiao Yi would not lower his guard against him. After all, he was a mid-stage Nascent Soul Realm Realm cultivator.

Still holding his fist in the other hand, Xiao Yi said hello to everyone.

Liu Zhen's spirit lifted and he said to everyone, "In that case, let's move forward immediately and head for the ancient ruins."
