Chapter 134: Chapter 137 Predestined
Chapter One Hundred and Thirty-Seven
Longevity True Qi surged within him, healing many of the injuries he suffered just moments ago. He quickly got up and ran to Shen Yuerong, who was bound at the entrance of the cave. Shen Yuerong's complexion was deathly pale, her eyes tightly shut, obviously hurt by the Ghostly Yin Energy.
Long Xiaoshan hurriedly broke the ropes binding Shen Yuerong, lifting her while pressing his hand on her body, infusing strands of Longevity True Qi into her.
Expelling the Yin Energy that had invaded Shen Yuerong's body.
Moments later.
Shen Yuerong slowly opened her eyes.
"Sister Shen!"
"Xiaoshan!"
Upon seeing Long Xiaoshan, Shen Yuerong hastily asked, "What about that old Taoist?"
"He's dead!"n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Dead?" Shen Yuerong was shocked and asked, "You killed him?"
"No, it was him." Long Xiaoshan raised his hand and pointed.
Shen Yuerong saw the Ghost General and, with a cry of alarm, a flicker of fear crossed her face.
"Don't be afraid, Sister Shen, it won't hurt us," Long Xiaoshan said.
Being held by Long Xiaoshan, Shen Yuerong felt a sense of safety. With his support, she slowly stood up. Inside the cave, a horde of ghosts lay prostrate. Shen Yuerong's voice trembled as she said, "Xiaoshan, what do we do now?"
"Sister Shen, I'll help you get out first," Long Xiaoshan supported Shen Yuerong to the entrance of the cave and said, "Wait here, I'll handle this."
"Wait, Xiaoshan."
"What else is there?"
"Be careful," Shen Yuerong's eyes conveyed an indescribable sentiment.
Long Xiaoshan nodded with a smile, "Hmm."
He stepped back into the cave. The Ghost General still stood there, giving a slight nod when Long Xiaoshan entered.
Long Xiaoshan nodded back at the Ghost General, then looked at the Evil Ghosts sprawling on the ground.
He asked, "What about these ghost spirits?"
The Ghost General glanced at them and said indifferently, "They're yours to deal with."
Long Xiaoshan picked up the Hundred Ghosts Banner from the headless corpse of the Black-robed Taoist, along with some other items, including the incantations necessary for using the banner. He took it and activated it.
All the Evil Ghosts were sucked back into the Hundred Ghosts Banner.
However, the Ghost General remained completely unmoved.
Clearly, after breaking through, the Hundred Ghosts Banner was useless against him.
Long Xiaoshan picked up the Seven-Star Sword and looked at the Ghost General. The strength of the Ghost General was tempting, but he knew his own spiritual cultivation was not enough to command this Ghost General. He asked, "Where do you plan to go?"
The flames in the Ghost General's eyes flickered for a moment.
After a while, he looked at Long Xiaoshan and asked, "Was that Elixir Pill you refined earlier?"
Long Xiaoshan nodded, "It was me."
The ghostly fire in the eyes of the Ghost General flared up even more intensely. He asked, "Can I follow you?"
Long Xiaoshan was overjoyed and replied, "Of course, you can."
After the Ghost General spoke, he acted decisively, transforming into a stream of black mist and returning to the Hundred Ghosts Banner first.
Long Xiaoshan felt exhilarated, never expecting to so easily subdue a powerful Ghost General whom he thought would surely dismiss him.
```
Long Xiaoshan had clearly underestimated the effect of the elixir pills.
Even in the era of the Ghost General, elixir pills were rare, and those capable of alchemy even rarer, powerful alchemists commonly had some strong followers.
Because Long Xiaoshan did not understand,
he thought he had found a bargain.
After dealing with the matter, Long Xiaoshan tossed a talisman and burned the corpse of the black-robed Taoist before going out to see Shen Yuerong anxiously looking around. He hurriedly called out, "Sister Shen."
"Xiaoshan," Shen Yuerong hurried over and clung to Long Xiaoshan's arm.
The way she acted was full of the dependency of a little woman.
Chapter Your:
It made Long Xiaoshan's heart flutter.
A beautiful and noble woman like Shen Yuerong would be fatally attractive to any man, Long Xiaoshan was no exception.
"Sister Shen, everything is taken care of, let's go down the mountain. I'll take you home," said Long Xiaoshan.
"Mm," Shen Yuerong was still clinging tightly to Long Xiaoshan's arm.
In the middle of the night in these deep mountains, having gone through what had just happened, only by holding on to Long Xiaoshan's arm could she feel safe.
The mountain road was indeed too difficult to traverse.
Jiufeng Mountain was steep and rugged, with dense forests and no human habitation, naturally with no paths.
Shen Yuerong walked unsteadily and slowly; continuing like this, they would not know when they would get down the mountain. Long Xiaoshan said, "Sister Shen, let me carry you."
Shen Yuerong hesitated for several seconds before agreeing.
She also realized that going down the mountain in this way was too slow. Lying on Long Xiaoshan's sturdy back, Shen Yuerong's cheeks flushed. It was just the beginning of September; it was still very hot during the day. She wore only a short-sleeved blouse, and Long Xiaoshan a thin T-shirt. As soon as she lay on his back, through those thin clothes, a strong wave of a man's body heat surged over.
As a princess of the Yanjing Shen Family, she was born noble and had always maintained her purity, never having had such close contact with a man before.
But she couldn't deliberately arch her body.
That would make it harder for Long Xiaoshan to carry her.
There was still such a long way down the mountain, and it was already hard enough for Long Xiaoshan to carry her, how could she make it any harder for him.
Thinking of Long Xiaoshan risking his life and death to come save her in this desolate wilderness,
Shen Yuerong silently wrapped her arms around Long Xiaoshan's neck.
Long Xiaoshan groaned softly to himself.
Shen Yuerong's body was soft and boneless, her figure full but not fat, and a faint fragrance that was not like perfume but rather a scent unique to a woman drifted over.
Having tasted the flavor of a woman, he naturally knew how intoxicating that soul-stirring essence was.
He quickly spoke to divert those intense emotions.
"Sister Shen, how were you captured by him?"
Shen Yuerong's heart was already feeling shy. Seeing Long Xiaoshan ask, she hurriedly said, "When I got home from work yesterday, I opened the door to find the Taoist priest. I was about to shout when he waved at me, and I fainted. When I woke up, I was in a cave on Jiufeng Mountain. He was demanding to know the cause of Daoist Jia's death, and I kept refusing to tell him. At first he wanted to hit me, even insult me, but after I said I was from the Yanjing Shen Family, he seemed wary and didn't continue. However, he used a talisman on me, and I was in a daze, I felt I was giving you away, but I couldn't control myself, Xiaoshan, I'm sorry, I almost harmed you."
"Sister Shen, what are you saying, it's all the old Taoist's fault," Long Xiaoshan suddenly changed his expression, his voice taking on a somewhat somber tone, "You're from the Yanjing Shen Family?"
"Yes." Shen Yuerong didn't notice the change in Long Xiaoshan's tone because she now knew that Long Xiaoshan was not an ordinary person but a powerful Spirit Practitioner, so she admitted it without hiding.
A coldness flitted through Long Xiaoshan's eyes, his heart even more tumultuous.
For it was a scion of the Shen Family who had caused him to fall from grace and go from being a highly promising student of Shuimu to a prisoner, and he still remembered that person was called Shen Tianhao.
This twist of fate was too coincidental.
To think he had encountered another woman from the Shen family here.
For a moment, darkness surged in Long Xiaoshan's heart.
