C20 Assassination

In the following period of time, Wang Baoyu did not go out hunting as he could save on meat. Moreover, as his cultivation increased, he discovered that his appetite was decreasing.

The harvest was coming to an end. Luo Yuan Chuan personally led the cultivators out of the city to pick the Five Elements Fruits, leaving behind a batch for their rations. Most of them had to be handed over to the East Peak Gate.

Because Wang Baoyu had killed many demon beasts, Luo Qianqian had a handicap in her legs, so they were left behind as an exception and didn't need to participate in the grand agricultural event.

Clear River City became empty for a moment. Only the sounds of the husband and wife laughing could be heard from time to time in the remote medicinal garden.

"Qianqian, I think I can feel that you have something here." After opening his eyes from meditation, Wang Baoyu suddenly pointed at Luo Qian's eyebrows and said.

"What is it?"

Luo Qian smiled and moved closer, she just wanted to let Wang Baoyu feel it more clearly.

"It looks like a jujube, black in color, the size of a sesame seed."

Date and sesame seeds were unfamiliar to Luo Qian. The Spirit Spill Continent didn't have these crops. In fact, there weren't even any birds flying in the air. Even small insects were rare.

"You must be talking about the soul core. Baoyu, you can finally feel it." Luo Qian said excitedly.

Wang Baoyu nodded, pleased with his own progress, and asked, "Besides being the symbol of a cultivator, do soul cores have any other uses?"

"The memory is stored inside my soul core." Luo Qian smiled sweetly.

"How do I remember? The memories should be stored in my brain!"

"It's said that all of us cultivators here are empty, and only our soul cores exist." Luo Qian knocked on her little head and said, "As your cultivation level increases, the color of your soul cores will also grow. Father's is as big as this."

Luo Qian measured it with her hand and found it was the size of a peanut. Luo Chuan was at the early Foundation Establishment stage. It seemed that he was at least a hundred times stronger than a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Even so, in order to fill one's brain with soul cores, one would have to be in the Void Transformation Stage. Luo Qian had never even seen Aurous Core stage cultivators before, so she naturally wasn't clear on the growth of the soul cores.

Following that, Luo Qian explained to Wang Baoyu how to judge one's cultivation level based on the difference in aura between the soul cores. The higher the cultivation, the more obvious one could sense the condition of the soul cores of the cultivators below.

Even today, Wang Baoyu's soul core was still indistinct, as though it was still indistinct. However, the aura emitted from it was still able to display his cultivation level.

However, he had used the Hidden Qi Incantation to restrain part of his aura. Even though he was only at the seventh stage, he still looked like he was at the fifth stage.

After repeated practice, Wang Baoyu was finally able to master this skill. This will play an important role in identifying his formidable opponent in the future.

Luo Yao sent someone to deliver fresh Five Elements Fruits. They were sweet and juicy, rich in spiritual energy, much stronger than the dried fruits.

The couple happily had a hearty meal, which made Wang Baoyu feel that Luo Yao was a pretty good girl. She knew she could correct her mistakes, but she couldn't do anything about it!

"How is the relationship between father and daughter?" Wang Baoyu asked.

"It's quite good. Father and sister often talk and laugh. Sister also said that when we enter the East Peak Martial School, we must help the Qing Chuan City gain some benefits."

"His transformation is quite fast!"

"Baoyu, you're too worried. How could there be any deep hatred between father and daughter? Moreover, elder sister should know how much father dotes on her."

"Right, then I wish her the best in achieving her wish as soon as possible!" Wang Baoyu sincerely said.

As night fell, the moonlight shined like water, but there was a slight chill in the air. Wang Baoyu sat in front of the door of the small house, gazing at the two moons that were bright and dark, his heart filled with emotion.

There were people who were happy and sad, and the moon was round and short. This saying wasn't suitable to be placed here. The moon of a foreign land had never seen a full moon before, and it was always round.

There was no calendar, and the record of time was entirely personal.

Cultivators like Luo Qian all had strange biological clocks on their bodies and knew of the changes in time. However, Wang Baoyu had to rely on his brain that no one else had.

For some reason, Wang Baoyu felt that tonight's mood was a bit abnormal. It was as if he was recalling something, and was quietly walking towards him.

After returning to his room, he took Luo Qian's hand and fell asleep. In the middle of the night, Wang Baoyu suddenly woke up, his body covered with a layer of cold sweat.

He dreamt of a woman sitting on a stone bench in an empty square. She was very beautiful with big eyes, but her eyes were dull as she gazed into the endless distance.

And the strangest thing was that the woman's legs were completely petrified, as if they had become one with the stone floor.

"Baoyu, why aren't you back yet? Where did you go?"

Wang Baoyu felt that this woman was quite familiar with him, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't remember. Thus, he woke up from his panic.

Who is she? I must know her? Is she calling my name? Just who am I, and where am I from?

Countless question marks appeared in his mind, leaving him frustrated. Just as he was about to walk outside, his left middle finger went numb. The alarm came.

The video was very clear. The two brothers, Mo Qiang and Mo Zhuang, who went out to pick the Five Elements Fruits, were sneakily entering the open gate of the Qing Chuan City.

"Qianqian, get up quickly, there's danger!" Wang Baoyu shouted.

Luo Qian sat up and rubbed her eyes. "Baoyu, what happened?"

"Mo Qiang and Mo Zhuang have entered the city."

"Aren't they picking the fruit outside the city? Get something from the city? "

"No, since I've sensed them, they must be coming for me. Let's go!" Wang Baoyu urged.

Luo Qian was completely shocked. Although Wang Baoyu was already at the 7th level, Mo Qiang and Mo Zhuang were also at the 7th level. Two against one might not be enough to win, and even if they were injured, it was not worth it.

She hurriedly followed Wang Baoyu out of the small room. After walking a few steps, Wang Baoyu suddenly stopped, and said in a low voice, "There is still one more thing that has come!"

"What is it? "What happened tonight?" Luo Qian had a bitter expression on her face.

"It's a flying insect, its iron shell is shiny, and it has a pair of pincers. It should be an iron beetle."

"The Rank 2 Demonic Beast's perception is quite sensitive. Baoyu, quickly use the Concealment Qi Incantation and leave this place." Luo Qian panicked and said.

There were very few iron beetles. Wang Baoyu deduced that this was probably the same iron beetle that Luo Yao's group had been tracking for over a month. For some unknown reason, this rank 2 beast had returned from Fallen Ying City.

It was obvious that Wang Baoyu's mortal aura had attracted its attention. If it teamed up with Mo Qiang and Mo Zhuang, they would be able to kill this Rank 2 Demonic Beast.

Wang Baoyu sneered, "Qianqian, we're not leaving. Let's go back to our rooms and prepare to watch a good show."

"Baoyu, stop messing around. This is very risky!"

"It doesn't matter! "If anyone dares to have any ideas about me, I will definitely make them suffer."

"Baoyu, maybe Mo Qiang and Mo Zhuang chased the Iron Beetles?" Luo Qian didn't want to believe that her sister would do anything to her husband.

"No, the two definitely came for me. It was an accident."

"Sigh, she really shouldn't have done this. Everything was fake, and they were all lies to me." Luo Qian sighed. Mo Qiang and Mo Zhuang were the loyal lackeys of her sister Luo Yao. The mastermind behind them was obvious.

The two of them quickly returned to the house and prepared themselves. Luo Qian grabbed a few fireball talismans and looked out of the window. Two short figures with steel blades in their hands were quietly approaching the house.
