Chapter 732: Purple Moon Cave Dísciples.
After getting rid of the people from the so-called Black Blood Mercenary Group, footsteps suddenly sounded from the forest. Subsequently, three men and women cautiously exited the forest. After seeing the three bodies on the ground, they were shocked as they looked at Xiao Luo.
“Brother, did you kill these three from the Black Blood Mercenary Group?” The one walking in front was a gentle and elegant man. He put the sword in his hand away and gave a salute to Xiao Luo.
Xiao Luo came out of his meditation and looked at them. These new people were dressed in purple clothes, and the weapons in their hands were also similar. They were all swords. If he guessed correctly, they should be the Purple Moon Cave dísciples that the Black Blood Mercenary Group mentioned.
He cut a piece of meat, chewed it slowly and then swallowed it. He nodded and lightly answered, “Yes, I did.”
He really killed them?!
These three were at Martial Spirits Level but they all died a violent death from this man, whose age seems not much older than them. Did this guy reach Peak Martial Spirit? Or did he already break through Martial Spirit Level and reach Martial King Level?
The six dísciples couldn’t help gulp in a breath of cold hair. If this guy was really at Martial King Level at such a young age, then there wouldn’t be anyone within this Secret Land who could fight him. Even if he was not at Martial King Level, he must be at Peak Martial Spirit Level. Such talent was extremely abnormal.
“You’re disciples from the Purple Moon Cave, right? Judging from the words of these corpses, it seems that the Black Blood Mercenary Group is hunting you?” Duck Emperor suddenly spoke at this time.
A talking duck?
Demon… Demon Beast?
The dísciples were frightened. Who would have thought that a duck had reached the Demon Beast Level. They actually met a young man who was, at least, at Peak Martial Spirit Level; and a Demon Beast duck.
God, this world has gone crazy!
After a pause, the gentle and elegant man bowed to the Duck Emperor and said, “Replying to Mr. Demon Beast, we are indeed dísciples from the Purple Moon Cave.”
“Why does the Black Blood Mercenary Group want to kill you?” The Duck Emperor paced back and forth, he enjoyed the feeling of being respected.
“This…”
The gentle and elegant man was a bit hesitant.
“Brother Zuo, no!”
“Yes, Brother Zuo, this Eight Petal Immortal Orchid is very rare even in 100 years. We have worked hard to find this one. The black blood mercenary group is after us because of it. If you tell this beast demon, it will definitely snatch it for its own, like the Black Blood Mercenary group.”
“The Eight Petal Immortal Orchid has to be taken back for Master’s treatment. Without the Eight Petal Immortal Orchid, Master may not be able to endure for two months.”
The other five dísciples whispered to the gentle and elegant man, called Brother Zou. These two were a Demon Beast and a strong Martial Artist. If these two decided to come at them, they wouldn’t have any power to fight back.
Although they spoke in a low voice, Xiao Luo could still hear them clearly. Though he just smiled and acted like he didn’t hear anything.
Zou Xiangming thought for a moment, then sighed, “Do you think you can deceive them by not saying anything? No, maybe you can fool that Brother, but you can’t fool a Demon Beast. If they really had intentions, our little trick would have no effect at all.”
Hearing this, the dísciples bowed their heads. How could they not understand that Brother Zuo was telling the truth? In front of a Demon Beast, they can’t hide anything.
“Hmm, what are you whispering about there? You people from the Secret Land really like to whisper.” Duck Emperor scratched his duck head puzzled.
Zuo Xiangming greeted him with a smile, and then answered the question: “Mr. Demon Beast, the Black Blood Mercenary Group chased us because we got an Eight Petal Immortal Orchid.”
“Eight Petal Immortal Orchid? What is that thing? Show it to this duck.”
Duck Emperor looked at Xiao Luo. He knew about the things in Earth (Xiao Luo’s world), but none in the Secret Land.
The five disciples were scared, ‘It’s over. It seems that the Demon Beast is interested in the Eight Petal Immortal Orchid. Obviously, it is asking Brother Zuo to hand over the orchid.’
“This is it.”
Zuo Xiangming smiled bitterly and directly took out the Eight Petal Immortal Orchid from his sleeve pocket.
As the name suggests, it was an orchid with eight petals, each of which was red like blood; moreover, there was a strong floral fragrance wafting from it. A person would feel rejuvenated after they smelled it. They woul feel refreshed after taking a whiff of it.
“Wow, what a beautiful flower, and it smells good!”
The Duck Emperor was a little infatuated, and took the Eight Petal Immortal Orchid with his duck wings as if they were human hands, and held the orchid in front of himself. He was enjoying it.
Meanwhile, the nerves of the five dísciples stretch tight with tension. This was the lifeline that would save their Master’s life, they couldn’t afford to lose it.
“Young’ens, how about giving this orchid to this duck? This duck can put it on its bookshelf, it would look beautiful.” The Duck Emperor loved the orchid and made a request.
[Shing~]
The five disciples drew their swords.
Duck Emperor was startled and the feathers on its head stood up.
Zuo Xiangming raised his hand to stop his younger brothers and sisters, and appeased Duck Emperor, “Lord Demon Beast, please forgive them. Just that this Eight Petal Immortal Orchid is needed to treat our seriously ill Master. Without it, he will not survive after two months. I hope Lord Demon Beast can help us in this. We will remember the kindness of Lord.”
Xiao Luo, who has always been a spectator at the side, walked to the Duck Emperor and said, “Hey duck, give them back the orchid.”
Duck Emperor was also not unreasonable, and it returned the orchid to Zuo Xiangming. “Since it is for saving someone’s life, how can this duck take it for its own?”
They gave it back?
Zuo Xiangming took back the orchid and it felt surreal.
The five dísciples were also startled momentarily, before they placed their swords back into the scabbard. Their hostility towards Xiao Luo was instantly reduced.
“Sigh~ it was a beautiful orchid… If only this duck could take it.” Duck Emperor sighed regretfully.
Xiao Luo glanced at him, “They are being chased because of this orchid. You stinky duck actually expects them to give it to you? You’re basically like the mercenaries.”
“Gai~ well didn’t this duck return it?” Duck Emperor said unhappily.
Xiao Luo didn’t speak again. He returned to his place and sat down.
“Thank you, Brother, thank you, Lord Demon Beast. We will remember your kindness.” Zou Xiangming bowed to Xiao Luo and the Duck Emperor.
The five dísciples also followed in his lead.
“Since you think this is kindness, then there is a chance for you to return the favor.” Xiao Luo said.
Hmm?
All six dísciples were puzzled.
