Chapter 1231 - 1231: He’s Mine

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The straw doll’s experiences over these years made her feel that D132 was really a paradise.

Over there, she had no worries, and she could revive even after dying.

Over there, there were people to talk to and act mysterious with. Although there was a god’s finger sleeping at the side, It would be in deep slumber most of the time.

In addition, from time to time, there would be guardians who were pranked by her.

Although she yearned for freedom at that time, upon truly attaining it, she discovered that it wasn’t as joyful as she imagined. Life outside was too harsh, and her undying characteristics led to her being exploited in various ways.

She was truly too miserable.

Her undying characteristic was also fading away, unable to restore her limbs. But at least, she could still hold on. The millstone, which suffered as miserably as her, was now nearly dead.

If this continued, in at most ten years, her undying attribute would completely disappear. At that time, she felt that she might instantly turn into ashes.

Now, she was just waiting for death to arrive.

Hence, her eyes were long listless, but she never expected that she would actually sense Xu Qing’s aura in the Flame Moon Mystic Heaven Race!

This was unbelievable to her because this place was too far from Fenghai County.

She was stunned and excited.

Her remaining arm patted the millstone beside her. Unfortunately, the millstone didn’t move at all.

Her actions attracted the attention of the stall owner.

This was a cultivator with white scales all over his body and a head similar to that of a human. However, the difference was that he had three eyes.

The eye in the center was completely white, giving off the feeling that it could see through the void.

There was also a small mountain circling above his head.

Clearly, this person was also one of the participants in the Grand Hunt.

At that moment, he looked at Xu Qing. His gaze first landed on the small mountain above Xu Qing’s head. After that, he seriously sized up Xu Qing a few times as a dark glint flashed.

“Human? It’s rare to see one in the Flame Moon’s region.”

Xu Qing had also recognized the other party’s race.

“Baize Race.”

Xu Qing didn’t have a good impression of this race. Right now, in the Black Spirit Region, it was this race that had sent out all their forces to participate in the Black Heaven War.

Hence, he didn’t say much and looked at the straw doll.

“How much for this?”

The Baize cultivator smiled and raised his hand to grab. Immediately, the straw doll flew over and was pinched in his palm by his white-scaled hand. As he squeezed and kneaded, the straw doll emitted a piercing scream.

“Although the level of this item is very low, it’s quite interesting. It contains the undying characteristic of a god and has research value.”

“Also, the soul sealed inside is that of a human soul, a female cultivator with decent looks. Though I’ve grown tired of playing with her, the value of this item is still considerable.”

The Baize cultivator looked at Xu Qing and observed his expression.

“Is she your friend? If that’s the case, the forbidden mountain above your head can be exchanged for it!”

“There’s also that half of the millstone that comes from the same source as this straw doll. However, it’s a pity that it’s about to die. If you want it, I can give it to you as a gift.”

The Baize cultivator’s words attracted the attention of the surrounding cultivators. Hence, many gazes swept over and some mocking laughter rang out.

Ever since he entered the city square, Xu Qing had sensed too much ill will in the gazes around him, mostly disdain.

The decline of the human race meant that in the eyes of the powerful races, their status wasn’t just lowly, but also not worthy of much consideration. They might bully or kill them without much hesitation.

However, the forbidden mountain above Xu Qing’s head revealed his identity as a participant in the Grand Hunt, so these people couldn’t disregard him.

This was because during the Grand Hunt, only participants could kill each other.

Xu Qing didn’t care about the mocking gazes from the surroundings. He shook his head and turned to leave.

He naturally wouldn’t accept this price.

Seeing that Xu Qing was about to leave, the Baize cultivator pinched the straw doll hard. However, this time, the straw doll gritted her teeth and used all her strength to restrain herself from screaming.

“Interesting.”

The Baize cultivator smiled and looked at the departing Xu Qing. His eyes narrowed and the third eye on his forehead revealed an imperceptible white glint.

The phantoms of four secret repositories instantly appeared and disappeared.

“Four secret repositories…”

The Baize cultivator muttered inwardly. His third eye returned to normal and he suddenly spoke.

“Fellow Daoist of the human race, how about 50 kilograms of flesh of a high-grade divine creature?”

Xu Qing stopped in his tracks and calculated. He could sense that if D132 was complete, there might be some changes. Most importantly, this was one of his obsessions.

He was Di32’s guardian and was conferred the title by the old Palace Master.

Hence, after Xu Qing thought for a bit, he took out a storage bag.

He had the flesh and blood of divine creatures. He had obtained them in the Moon Offering Region. Although there wasn’t a lot, he still had hundreds of kilograms.

Hence, Xu Qing threw the storage bag over.

After the Baize cultivator caught it, he sensed it and nodded in satisfaction.

After that, he casually threw out the straw doll in his hand.

As for the millstone, it also flew up with a wave of his hand and landed on Xu Qing.

Xu Qing flicked his sleeve and kept the straw doll and millstone before turning to leave.

Looking at Xu Qing’s departing view, the Baize cultivator licked his lips and began to put away his miscellaneous items.

As for Xu Qing, he sent the straw doll and millstone to D132 as he walked. The moment they entered the cage, the head, the stone lion, and the painting old man were all excited to varying degrees.

Even the god’s finger emitted a wisp of aura, causing the straw doll to recover rapidly. The other half of the millstone also began to restore.

“We’re reunited.”

The head laughed.

Immediately after, D132 began to tremble. The return of all the prisoners caused this prison that was cursed by misfortune to become complete. A sense of transformation was also slowly rising.

Seeing this, Xu Qing retracted his divine sense. From the corner of his eye, he glanced at the stall of the Baize cultivator and continued forward.

Four hours later, Xu Qing and the captain met.

The captain’s face was tense, but his eyes betrayed satisfaction, giving off the impression of a fat sheep with a guilty conscience. He hurriedly pulled Xu Qing away.

“I have baited seven or eight of them, but I reckon some weren’t lured by me but came passively.”

“What about you, Little Qing? How was your harvest?”

“There’s one.” Xu Qing transmitted his voice.

“Just one? A big one?” The captain blinked.

Xu Qing nodded.

The captain was excited. They quickly left Mystic Moon Square, looking like they were in a hurry.

As they left, time slowly passed. On the way, the two of them controlled their speed. Although they didn’t stop, they controlled their speed to a level that Spirit Repository cultivators could catch up with.

However, even after half a day had passed, no one appeared.

The captain was a little surprised.

“Impossible, when did Flame Moon Mystic Heaven’s cultivators become so honest? Could it be that what I did wasn’t obvious? Or was it too obvious?”

The captain felt some regret and kept turning his head.

Xu Qing used his perception and looked at the distant horizon before suddenly speaking.

“It’s also possible that someone from one side took action and intimidated the others with ulterior motives, just like how the forbidden zone was marked.”

As Xu Qing spoke, he lifted his sleeve and released the Poison Restriction, touching it slightly.

Immediately, a fingernail-sized mark appeared on his sleeve that was originally normal.

“This was secretly left on me by a participant from the Baize Race. He had covertly sensed my cultivation and determined that I had four secret repositories. He is at the Perfected Spirit Repository.”

“So, let’s wait a little longer. He has a forbidden mountain.”

Xu Qing’s body swayed and he landed on a mountain peak below, sitting down.

The captain’s eyes lit up and he licked his lips. He then sat beside Xu Qing and stared at the sky eagerly.

Two hours later, when he saw three rainbows appearing in the sky, the captain’s eyes revealed excitement.

The three rainbows were extremely fast, as though they could sense the direction. At that moment, they tore through the sky and headed toward Xu Qing. When they were 10,000 feet away, the rainbows paused and transformed into three figures.

They were three Baize cultivators.

The cultivator on the right was none other than the vendor who had sold the straw doll to Xu Qing. As for the cultivator in the center, his clothes were clearly much more luxurious. The aura on his body also surpassed the vendor’s and reached the first stage of Nihility.

The last person was at the perfected Spirit Repository Realm.

After these three people appeared, the vendor pointed at Xu Qing and whispered a few words to Nihility cultivator beside him. He then looked at Xu Qing and the captain, and smiled just like in Mystic Moon Square.

“Human, regardless of whether you were baiting in Mystic Moon Square or not, it doesn’t matter. After I saw you, I didn’t plan to come alone.”

“We’ve already booked the forbidden mountain above your head.”

“In addition, although I don’t know your identity in the human race, I will give you two pieces of information about the current human race for free.”

This Baize cultivator looked at the forbidden mountain above Xu Qing’s head and licked his lips.

“Your human race encountered defeat on the northwest battlefield. Although it was forcefully suppressed by your State Preceptor, the high priest of the Si’e Race has also arrived at the battlefield. I heard that the Shadow Demon Race was also persuaded to participate.”

“Your northwest border is in danger.”

“As for the Black Heaven Race’s battlefield, although my race is being restrained by your army and your Fenghai County’s strength is quickly sweeping through the Black Spirit Region, do you know that this restraint… is our goal to begin with?”

“The casualties of your human race in these two places are extremely heavy.”

“If a human’s hands are bound, how will he dodge the shot to the heart?”

The smile on the Baize cultivator’s face was very bright.

“While I am speaking, hundreds of humans might have died on the battlefield.”

After saying that, the Baize cultivator observed Xu Qing’s expression. His words all had ulterior motives. His goal was to lure Xu Qing and the captain to leave this mountain.

Xu Qing and the captain had stopped here. He could sense it through the mark. His cautious personality made him think that the other party might have some arrangements here, and he wasn’t willing to take the risk.

Xu Qing and the captain, who had experienced too many things, could see these thoughts clearly.

“He’s mine,” Xu Qing calmly said.

“I’ll handle the other two. It’s been a long time since 1 have eaten the Baize Race.” The captain smiled.

As the two of them spoke, their bodies instantly disappeared. In the air, sharp intent shrouded the three Baize cultivators..
