The Devil's Tribulation

Chapter 778 Uncle Niu's Concerns

Red Mountains, the territory of the Earth Flame Leopard.

Xuan Yuanzi lay on the ground motionless, and a fifth-order earth fire leopard took majestic steps and slowly approached Xuan Yuanzi.

The Earth Flame Leopard first lowered its head and sniffed Xuan Yuanzi's body, and found that the "corpse" was still fresh. It then stretched out its tongue and licked Xuan Yuanzi's exposed neck, and opened its mouth to reveal two rows of sharp teeth.

Just as he was about to take a bite, the 'corpse' suddenly moved! He punched the Earth Flame Leopard's head directly, and the huge head shattered with a 'pop' sound.

Xuan Yuanzi covered his head and turned over to sit up, muttering: "Mental attack! Very good, there are many methods, hiss~~ It hurts so much!~"

Xuan Yuanzi rubbed his head for a while, and the pain of mental tearing was slightly relieved. Xuan Yuanzi quickly meditated to adjust himself, and this adjustment took a whole day.

After a day and a night, Xuan Yuanzi exhaled a breath of foul air, opened his eyes and said lightly: "Fortunately, if the power of that attack was a little stronger, my sect's spiritual sea would be damaged."

Xuan Yuanzi stood up and sensed for a while, then extended his spiritual sense out, but there was no trace of Pan Chengfeng.

“Hahaha, hahaha~” Xuan Yuanzi sneered, “Good boy! You actually ran away! I didn’t expect you even raised a spiritual pet. This really surprised this sect~”

Xuan Yuanzi suddenly became murderous and shouted, "Don't think you can run away!!! We will definitely catch you!!! Break your limbs! And pull out your bones one by one!! Pull them out one by one!!!"

A cave in the Red Mountains.

This place is already a great distance away from Xuanyuanzi. The big guy ran while erasing all traces. After running for a whole day, he finally found a cave and hid in it.

Inside the cave, the big guy had turned back into a little monkey, sitting next to the fire, holding a branch and poking it into the fire from time to time, and the flames would become brighter.

Pan Chengfeng and Heiwu were both lying on the rocks. Neither the man nor the cat had a good sleeping posture. Pan Chengfeng was lying in a big letter "L" and liked to talk in his sleep, while Heiwu was drooling and meowing from time to time.

Pan Chengfeng turned over and muttered, "Shuang'er, what did you give the young master to drink? Why is it so bitter?"

The big guy covered his mouth and laughed secretly, and called out "oh oh" twice. Pan Chengfeng suddenly opened his eyes and spat out the medicine residue, saying "Puh, puh, puh" and said angrily: "Big guy, you feed me elixir like that again! I... ugh..."

After a bout of dry heaving, Pan Chengfeng quickly took out the spiritual spring to rinse his mouth. Heiwu also woke up, and when the kitten heard what Pan Chengfeng said, he also started dry heaving.

The man and the cat moved in unison. Pan Chengfeng wanted to continue rinsing his mouth, but the water bag had been snatched away by Heiwu.

Pan Chengfeng sat on the ground limply, and asked weakly, "Where is this place? How long has it been?"

The big guy groaned a few times, "Oh? It's been three days?" Pan Chengfeng covered his head and rubbed it, saying, "That old guy won't give up. I wanted to practice in the Scarlet Mountains for a while, but now it seems I have to go back to the sect as soon as possible."

When Heiwu heard that Pan Chengfeng had changed his plan, he meowed unhappily.

Pan Chengfeng said angrily, "Which is more important, food or life? Big guy, have you removed all the traces?"

The big guy patted his chest, looking confident. Pan Chengfeng touched the big guy's head and praised him, "Well done! This way, it will take some time for the old guy to find us. Let's have a good rest tonight and set off back to the sect early tomorrow morning!"

A month passed in the blink of an eye.

In the northwest of Dongzhou, within the sphere of influence of the Yu Lei Sect, a small thunder boat sped past.

There was a big red flag on the boat with the two big characters "Shangguan" written on it.

This is the exclusive means of transportation for the Fourth Master of the Shangguan Family. Even though it is a small thunder boat, ordinary medium-sized sects cannot afford it! In one word, it costs money!

Inside the Leizhou, Uncle Niu ran to Shangguan Heng's room and knocked on the door again. This was the nth time this month.

These days, Uncle Niu has regained his former charm with the nourishment of animal meat. He is over 1.9 meters tall, with a strong and sturdy figure, and looks like a brave man.

There was a knock on the door, and Shangguan Heng's voice came out: "Fellow Daoist Niu, come in."

Originally he wanted to call him Uncle Niu, but at Uncle Niu's insistence, Shangguan Heng changed his words. After all, he and Pan Chengfeng were of the same generation, and by calling him Fellow Daoist Niu, he was taking advantage of Pan Chengfeng's generation.

Shangguan Heng knew Pan Chengfeng very well, and knew that the boy was a stingy person, so how could he dare to take advantage of him? But Uncle Niu was very persistent, and Shangguan Heng had no choice but to call him Brother Niu first.

Uncle Niu pushed the door open and came in. Shangguan Heng had already brewed the spiritual tea and said with a smile, "The spiritual tea has just been brewed. Fellow Daoist is here. Let's have a drink first~"

Uncle Niu has been here many times and has come to know Shangguan Heng well. He is different from other children from aristocratic families and does not have that kind of arrogance.

If it were any other child of aristocratic family, wouldn't they be impressed when they knew that Uncle Niu was a physical practitioner?

Uncle Niu was not polite either. He sat down, reached out and took the teacup that Shangguan Heng pushed over, drank it all in one gulp and said, "Daoyou, is there still no news about Chengfeng?"

Shangguan Heng chuckled and said, "No news is good news, right? It means that Junior Brother has escaped."

"But...but..." Uncle Niu hesitated and said, "But can't all monks send messages? If he's okay, why didn't he send you a message to let you know he's safe?"

Shangguan Heng smiled and said, "Don't worry, fellow Daoist. A cultivator can certainly send a message, but if the distance is too far and your cultivation is not high enough, there is no way to send the message to the other party."

Uncle Niu asked doubtfully: "You mean Chengfeng is too far away from us?" Shangguan Heng nodded and said: "There are two situations, one is that the distance is too far, the other is..."

Shangguan Heng suddenly stopped, paused for a second, and continued, "Another possibility is that he is not out of danger yet, and rashly sending a message may expose him."

Uncle Niu showed a worried look when he heard this, Shangguan Heng hurriedly comforted him: "Don't worry, fellow Daoist, there is an insider from my Shangguan family in the Tiandao Sect. If there is no news from him, it means that Xuanyuanzi has not captured Junior Brother."

Uncle Niu pushed open the door of Taoist Yu's room with a bit of frustration. Seeing that his master was still eating meat, he said unhappily, "Master, how can you still have the mind to eat meat and drink? I don't know what happened to that kid!"

Taoist Yu chewed the meat in his mouth and swallowed it. Then he picked up the Qinglingzui on the table and took a sip. He said with an "ah~" and said, "What a good wine~ My good disciple prepared good wine and good meat for me. It's really thoughtful~"

Uncle Niu sat down at the table sullenly and said, "Why aren't you worried at all? If something happens to that kid, there will be no one to succeed the Tiandao Sect!"

With a "bang!" sound, Taoist Yu slammed his wine glass on the table and said angrily, "Are you done yet?! You keep nagging me all day long! Go, stand on one finger for ten hours!!"

Uncle Niu said "Oh~" and really ran to do a one-finger handstand, but even so, Uncle Niu still didn't close his mouth, and said sullenly: "Master, I have already reached the sixth level of physical training, can I be exempted from this punishment?"

"Even if you have reached the Golden Body Realm, you are still my disciple!" Taoist Yu continued as he poured the wine, "You worry about this and that all day long. I told you, nothing will happen to your good disciple. He is very smart! Even if you and I die, nothing will happen to him!"

"But..." Taoist Yu interrupted, "But that's bullshit! Shut your mouth! If you say those unlucky words again, I will expel you from my sect!"

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and the servant reported at the door: "You two, we are almost at the Yu Lei Sect. The Fourth Master asked me to come over and tell you that we are getting ready to disembark."

Pan Chengfeng thought about it and decided to arrange for his master and his great master to stay in the Yu Lei Sect temporarily, so that they could avoid the pursuit of the Tian Dao Sect. Otherwise, if they were caught again, it would be a waste of time.

Taoist Yu took out a piece of cloth, wiped his hands and said, "Got it, let's clean it up now~"

Taoist Yu turned his head and looked at Uncle Niu and said, "Get up, get ready to get off the boat."
