The only new recruit left in the Double Soul Sect, seeing the appearance of Qu Yue Shan at this moment, still rushed over and had the elder Qu carried on his back.
Not only that, he cautiously approached Ding Huan: "Big Brother Ding, since Elder Qu's body is not well, may I carry him on my back while we all walk together?"
A trace of sarcasm and a touch of compassion flashed across Ding Huan's eyes. "This poor guy still doesn't know that he was possessed when he joined the Double Soul Sect?"
When the elder Qu left, he didn't even glance at him. Now it's a lick-dog face, deserve it.
"The road is made by everyone walking on it, of course you can walk, why ask me? Moreover, you're carrying an injured person."
While Ding Huan was speaking, there was a smile on his face, as if there were no conflicts with Elder Qu at all.
Far away, as Mo Hua had been watching Ding Huan, her heart skipped a beat.
Ding Huan really was like his master had guessed, upon seeing Elder Qu seriously injured, he not only did not take advantage of the situation but showed a great deal of sympathy towards the Double Soul Sect disciple.
At that moment, Liu Yinyinju's gaze swept over, and Mo Hua unconsciously lowered her head.
Is she really as her master said, and would she die even faster than Ding Huan in his position?
Regardless of what everyone was thinking, the team continued to move forward.
Unlike before, it was Ding Huan, the chef, who was leading the team again.
Even when the Kong executive spoke to Ding Huan, there was a tone of respect.
He was also secretly scared in his heart. If it weren't for Elder Gu's insistence to follow Ding Huan into the mountains, he would have had no choice but to follow. How would he be now?
Probably, it would be impossible to be like this with the loss of his legs, like Elder Qu. It's likely that he would lose his life.
After a day, the team was very quiet, and nothing untoward happened.
When camping for the night, Elder Gu and Elder Liu were responsible for guarding, and the injured Elder Qu could only rest in the tent to recover.
Ding Huan continued to research array knowledge as usual in the tent.
Basic array formations focus on the combination of position, power, technique, space, and aura.
This made Ding Huan have an unusual idea. If combined with the characters of the talisman, what effect would it produce? Wait, what should be combined with the formation is the formation characters……
He had never seen array characters, but he had seen array patterns.
Common formations like those of Elder Gu, who rely on array flags to set up, can be easily understood and easily broken by anyone who is high-level.
For example, the intangible pattern wall he encountered when he came from the mortal world to the Daoist cultivation world, was that not a formation set up?
If it is also an array, then it is a top-level grand array, and it is very likely to be related to array patterns.
How to obtain knowledge of array patterns?
A feeling of being on the verge of something emerged in Ding Huan's mind, but there was no answer.
Ding Huan had a faint feeling that if he could find the relationship between array patterns and formations, his array cultivation would likely surpass Elder Gu as soon as he started.
Hahahaha, he hasn't even learned to walk yet, and he wants to run.
First, study the array flags to set up array formations.
"Big brother Ding, may I come in for a moment?"
Just as Ding Huan was thinking about how long it would take him to set up a first-level defense array, a voice that was somewhat familiar came from outside.
Ding Huan subconsciously wanted to extend his divine essence, but he quickly suppressed this behavior and got up to open the tent door.
"It's you?" Ding Huan looked at the other party in surprise, recognizing him.
The only remaining disciple of the Double Soul Sect, who had been trying to please him earlier by asking if he could carry Qubai Yue Shan with them, was now standing before him.
"Come in," Ding Huan said indifferently. The other party was just a newly selected Double Soul Sect disciple who couldn't pose a threat to him yet.
As soon as the disciple from the Double Soul Sect entered, he closed the tent door immediately and bowed respectfully:
"Big Brother Ding, my name is Yan Mei. I came here today specifically to ask for your advice."
Ding Huan was somewhat taken aback:
"Yan Mei, we are only traveling together. If you have problems that I can't solve, I might not be able to either. If you really have a problem, why not go ask the two elders?"
Yan Mei said sincerely:
"Big Brother Ding, I am different from you. I am just a newly-entered outer disciple, and I have no qualifications to ask the two elders for advice."
Moreover, this problem can only be answered by you."
"Then go ahead and say it," Ding Huan replied, not taking it to heart.
He can communicate with the two elders because everyone's life depends on him now. Yan Mei indeed cannot communicate with the two elders.
Yan Mei lowered his voice and said:
"Big Brother, when I asked you if we could walk together today, I saw a look of compassion in your eyes."
"I know that you and Elder Qu have a grudge, and I can guarantee that you would never show mercy to Elder Qu. Please, show me a clear path."
After speaking, Yan Mei was about to kneel down.
Before Yan Mei could kneel down, Ding Huan reached out and pulled him up.
He was shocked inside, he knew that those who could survive were not fortunate.
He did have a touch of pity for Yan Mei at the time, who was about to be possessed. After all, it was cruel that someone with a good intention of joining a big sect would end up being possessed.
That tiny look of pity was picked up by the other party. This guy's ability to observe is almost minute to the extreme.
However, Ding Huan doesn't want to talk about his grudge with Elder Qu. The disputes between him and Elder Qu will not involve the sect. Even if Elder Qu wants to kill him, it is still Elder Qu's wish.
If the Double Soul Sect's affairs are exposed, the Double Soul Sect wanting to kill him would be completely different.
"You're quite lucky, the Double Soul Sect was annihilated, and you even managed to survive," Ding Huan answered a question he hadn't been asked.
Yan Mei sighed:
"After joining the Double Soul Sect, I felt that I might have joined the wrong sect."
It's said that the Double Soul Sect is extremely eager for new disciples and fully cultivates them, but during the ten days I've walked with the sect elders and executors, I didn't feel that at all.
When Ding Huan first left the main group to go on his own, I really wanted to come out and walk with him. But I was afraid, because I knew that if I came out, I would definitely be killed by Elder Qu.
So when we set up camp at night, I specially found an excuse to leave the Double Soul Sect's camp and move closer to the Zixiagou side. I was chatting with a disciple of Zixiagou who was looking for trouble.
Later, indeed, something happened. I saw that Elder Qu didn't care about the disciples at all and ran away first. I immediately followed Elder Liu of Zixiagou to escape and luckily gained my life.
Ding Huan stared in amazement at Yan Mei. This guy is really impressive, and that's why he could detect his look.
No, this guy came over to talk to him while carrying Elder Qu on his back, and that was when he wanted to know what he was thinking.
Cunning and resourceful.
However, this is useless to him. At least not now.
"Big Brother Ding, I know that Elder Qu is injured and poses no threat to you at the moment, but I know Elder Qu's character. He is vengeful."
He may not be able to attack you himself, but he might have friends. And Elder Qu won't let me off either..."
Because the previous events were none of his business, Ding Huan doesn't feel like thinking about it.
Now that Yan Mei says Elder Qu won't let him off either, Ding Huan's thoughts turned and he understood.
Yan Mei, carrying Elder Qu, asked humbly before this cook. If after the incident Elder Qu doesn't kill Yan Mei, it wouldn't be Qubai Yue Shan.
"You know that Elder Qu won't let you off, and you still dare to be so bold?" Ding Huan asked.
Yan Mei clenched his fists:
"Big Brother Ding, when I carried Qubai Yue Shan to come before you and say these words, I had already decided to kill Qubai Yue Shan."
Ding Huan was shocked. This guy wants to kill off Qubai Yue Shan? He's got some audacity.
Even if Qubai Yue Shan loses his legs, Yan Mei wanting to kill him is like trying to crack a stone with an egg. He's not even an egg.
Yan Mei spoke with increasing earnestness:
"I don't have the means to kill Elder Qu, but I'm sure you, Big Brother Ding, have ways to do so. I came here today for two reasons."
One is to ask Big Brother Ding why his look of pity towards me, and the other is to ask Big Brother Ding to help me with this favor."
If Big Brother Ding also doesn't have a way, I will leave the team and venture into the mountains to fend for myself. I will no longer carry this old scoundrel, Qubai Yue Shan, as he doesn't have that much face."
Ding Huan raised his thumb:
"Courageous."
No matter how Yan Mei thinks, killing Qubai Yue Shan would only benefit him.
Ding Huan didn't hesitate and took out the spray bottle of Genetic Toxic Mist.
"This spray bottle, you just spray it once, and everyone in the house will fall, including yourself."
Take this, and figure out how to dispose of Qubai Yue Shan on your own. If you survive, then return the item to me, and I will tell you the answer."
Ding Huan didn't mention the word "dead", but Yan Mei understood.
"Thank you, Big Brother Ding. I just hope that Big Brother Ding will give me a message after a while."
After Yan Mei finished speaking, he took out a communication bead and handed it to Ding Huan.
Ding Huan took it and looked at it. He knew how to use it just by holding it.
"Sure, I'll give you a message after a while."
Yan Mei thanked Ding Huan again and quickly left with the Genetic Toxic Mist.
Ding Huan was also very curious about how Yan Mei managed to kill Qubai Yue Shan without dying himself.
He could spray Genetic Toxic Mist on others because he was immune to the toxin. Yan Mei obviously wasn't.
...
Elder Qu was itching his teeth with anger in the tent.
As Yan Mei had guessed, he would never let Ding Huan go. He thought that just because he had lost his legs, Ding Huan could escape from his grasp?
Hahaha, overestimating yourself.
Just at this moment, a sound came from Yan Mei's tent. It was Yan Mei returning.
Qubai Yue Shan regarded Yan Mei as a target that he must kill. A new disciple, who didn't consult him before, actively sought mercy from Ding Huan, and he felt humiliated on behalf of the Double Soul Sect.
That's not all; this disciple threw him into the tent without a trace of servile behavior.
He didn't even ask him when he went out. He seems to treat him like nothing.
With that in mind, Qubai Yue Shan's divine sense fell on Yan Mei.
When he saw Yan Mei take out an object that he had never seen before and play with it, he seemed surprised and excited.
"Can this spray actually cleanse the cultivation root and remove the negative aura of the body?"
Yan Mei whispered to himself while carefully examining the object in his hand.
Just at that moment, his communication bead suddenly lit up.
"Hmm, what business does Elder Gū have to find me?" Yan Mei looked at the communication bead with confusion on his face.
He quickly stuffed the object in his bag and then hurried out.
Almost at the same moment as Yan Mei walked out, Qubai Yue Shan's divine sense reached out and the spray he had stuffed into his bag landed in his hand.
And there was now a hole in the tent between him and Yan Mei.
It seems to be made of jade, capable of cleansing the cultivation root and removing negative aura? Where did he obtain this?
A substance that can cleanse the cultivation root is invaluable; how could it be packaged in something as trivial as jade?
Removing negative aura? That corresponds to his wound.
Qubai Yue Shan humphed and pressed a button. A mist shot out.
Qubai Yue Shan immediately held his breath and took a poison-removing pill. Soon, he was sure it was not poison.
He sprayed a few more times, his eyes revealing a hint of disdain. Can something like this really cleanse cultivation roots? Hahaha.
