Quick Transmigration: The Mad Beauty Refuses to Be the Scapegoat!-Chapter 232 - 13: The Berserk Junior Sister Refuses to Be Cannon Fodder (Part 13)
The protagonist certainly won’t be in trouble, but the cannon fodder is unlucky.
The spirit water she spilled surrounded the boat where the original group was, attracting countless cannibal fish. In the end, if it weren’t for the combined protection of the First Senior Brother and the Second Senior Brother, the boat would have been torn apart.
By the time they got out of the fog, the small boat was nearly falling apart, and the group had to swim ashore.
Because of fighting off the cannibal fish, the First Senior Brother was injured. At this time, Mu Wu threw a spiritual medicine to him, which only deepened the affection of the First Senior Brother, who already had a good impression of her.
Thinking of this, Jiang Lai glared at the First Senior Brother in disappointment.
First Senior Brother: "?"
What’s wrong with the Little Junior Sister again?
——
Anyway, the fish were already in hand, so everyone hurried to leave, to avoid being discovered and inviting trouble due to jealousy.
At this moment, Wei Ziling noticed a group from Tiangang Sect coming ashore, and whispered to Mu Wu.
"I didn’t expect them to cross the river. It seems Tiangang Sect has many hidden experts."
Mu Wu glanced at Jiang Lai passing by, then turned back to focus on the fishing float in front of her.
"Qi Junyi has a Seventh Rank Cultivation, and that Hu Mang has a Sixth Rank Cultivation. With these two protecting the boat, it’s not surprising they could get ashore."
"You must admit, Qi Junyi is quite handsome and has a tall figure. It’s amazing that someone so skilled joined Tiangang Sect."
Mu Wu said nothing. Whenever Wei Ziling mentioned handsome looks, her mind involuntarily recalled the bewitchingly handsome man she saw that night.
She sensed a tremendous amount of spiritual power at Spirit Testing Cliff, so she ventured there at night to treasure hunt, only to find someone had arrived before her.
To get the treasure, she fought with him. During the battle, the man’s mask fell off, revealing a striking and devilishly handsome face. Honestly, she had never seen anyone so attractive in her life, and this person’s Foundation Establishment cultivation surpassed hers in every way.
If it weren’t for some sneaky tricks, she almost couldn’t escape. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺
In the end, the treasure wasn’t gained, probably taken by that man.
"But I heard the Inner Sect’s eldest disciple of the Eight Desolates Sect, Ye Yunzhou, is also extremely handsome. It’s a pity that very few have seen his true appearance. Even my father, who is in the Three Sects, has never seen him."
"Do you really find it interesting, spending all day obsessing over men?"
Wei Ziling chuckled pleasingly.
"Life is dull. What’s the point of living if you don’t find some amusement? Wu, don’t be so serious."
Mu Wu just felt it was pointless. No matter how impressive a man is, it’s his talent. Powerful people wouldn’t waste attention on small fry. The most important thing is to become powerful herself. When she’s brilliant enough, the best will naturally lay before her, requiring no effort.
"Oh, by the way, why does Jiang Lai look completely fine? Did she not eat that Golden Ganoderma?"
That’s the point Mu Wu cared about.
Based on her initial judgment of Jiang Lai when they met, Jiang Lai seemed foolish, aggressive, greedy, and selfish. Normally, she should have eagerly consumed that Golden Ganoderma.
But seeing her light-footed just now didn’t seem like someone who took the Golden Ganoderma, suggesting she’s perhaps smarter than expected — at least not entirely brainless.
"Let’s observe more. If she keeps bothering me, I’ll deal with her later."
The Mother and Child Fish in the river were what’s important now; she didn’t care much about the reward Spirit Stone but was keen on the Mother and Child Pearl inside the fish. Yet, as time ticked by, there were still no signs of the fish.
Meanwhile, the First Senior Brother had already set up a tent in a dry spot, occupying a great position before others could arrive.
Jiang Lai lit a fire and directly placed the fish on the flame. Soon, a rich aroma spread, a kind of fish scent that made even the fasting First Senior Brother swallow his saliva unconsciously.
The first grilled fish was handed by Jiang Lai to the Third Senior Brother. Knowing the dangers during the river crossing yet still protecting Jiang Lai, this was her way of repaying him.
"Eat more to replenish your spiritual power."
The Third Senior Brother was deeply moved, ready to decline but was fiercely glared at by Jiang Lai.
The rest of the fish gradually cooked, Jiang Lai ate while glancing at the First Senior Brother.
"Aren’t you going to eat?"
"I’m fasting."
"If he doesn’t eat, I will. I don’t fast; it’s fine to eat as much as I want."
Just as the Fourth Senior Brother was about to touch it, the First Senior Brother grabbed the fish.
"An occasional bite should be okay."
The Fourth Senior Brother licked his lips with a hint of regret, wishing more fish had been caught earlier.
"This fish is truly the most delicious thing I’ve ever eaten!"
Suddenly, the First Senior Brother’s face changed, and he quickly sat cross-legged. The Second Senior Brother understood immediately.
"The First Senior Brother is about to break through to the next level."
Meanwhile, the Third Senior Brother couldn’t believe his own gut feeling.
"I feel it too!"
The Fourth Senior Brother widened his eyes at the two in front of him.
"That quick? Why do I feel nothing?"
Despite feeling envious, it was a crucial breakthrough moment, so they helped the breakthroughers into the tent while others stood guard around.
At night, other teams also set up camp nearby. Not far away, a group dressed in gold apparel surveyed the area. Du Furong quickly whispered.
"See? Those are people from the Three Sects, looking like they’re from the Eight Desolates Sect."
Their clothes were different, clearly made from Heavenly Silkworm Silk, impenetrable and heat-retaining, each with a piece of Accompanying Jade at the waist, exuding an air of grandeur.
Well, these were the top picks from the Four Sects entering the Three Sects, the weakest being above the Sixth Rank, key players in completing the scroll tasks. Disciples from the Four Sects were generally just bystanders, with the Three Sects winning every year.
At this time, a woman holding a compass approached, glanced at the tent behind Jiang Lai, and called back to her group.
"The compass shows this is the spot."
She then looked at Jiang Lai, saying coldly,
"Move to another location so we can handle important matters without interference."
The disciples of the Three Sects held a natural allure of mystery to those from the Four Sects.
Jiang Lai understood, it was akin to the awe ordinary students felt for those from Tsinghua or Peking University, an inescapable sense of inadequacy.
Du Furong glanced at Jiang Lai silently.
"What do we do? Should we move the two senior brothers to the side?"
The Eight Desolates Sect seems to really have business here.
