The teams at the rear usually consisted of several people in the midstage of Qi cultivation. But now, everyone was seeking the protection of those who were in the late stage of Qi cultivation.

Whether it was handing over Spirit Stones or paying some other price!

The reason for this was that the combat power shown by Xu Mu disturbed the balance of the entire team.

The strength of individual cultivators was usually not very strong. Even with the help of talismans and magic artifacts, it was impossible for late-stage Qi cultivators to overpower a group of mid-stage Qi cultivators.

Mid-stage Qi cultivators also couldn’t overpower those in the early stage of Qi cultivation.

Therefore, although the entire team did not have a leader, it could maintain a surface balance.

Even people like Zhou Chong only dared to act secretly, not daring to expose their identities.

And the Fire-controlling Skill displayed by Xu Mu posed a significant threat even to a group of late-stage Qi cultivators.

They asked themselves, even if they prepared in advance, they might not be able to withstand such an attack.

Others did not know Xu Mu’s identity or his intentions, but for their own considerations, and to avoid being defeated one by one, a group of people came together in a very short time. Led by late-stage Qi cultivators and joined by mid-stage Qi cultivators, they formed teams of about a hundred people, each team with a relatively complete structure!

This change was something Xu Mu hadn’t anticipated.

lie never thought of defeating them one by one!

Dealing with Zhou Chong and others was merely to avoid trouble.

But since it had happened, he could only passively accept it.

To avoid standing out, he joined Xiao Yi’s team at Su Qing’s invitation.

Due to their cultivation levels, Xu Mu and Lan Shijin had to join the patrol team, and under the guidance of late-stage Qi cultivators, they were responsible for the security of the entire team at night.

Of course, early-stage Qi cultivators such as Ouyang Ying and Zhang Shouren had to either give up Spirit Stones or be responsible for opening the path during the day.

Some were responsible for cooking and setting up camp.

After all, not everyone had Fasting Pills, and not everyone was willing to consume them at this time. The journey ahead was still long. As their number of pills was limited, cultivators were more willing to use them for emergencies later.

It was evening.

The team set up camp to rest next to a stream.

In the tent at the center, the five late-stage Qi cultivators in the team divided among themselves the Spirit Stones and materials given by people seeking protection.

In the end, each of them got as many as a thousand Lower-grade Spirit Stones.

If it were in the past, it would be unlikely for them to earn so many Spirit Stones in a short time, even as late-stage Qi cultivators.

“I never thought these poor bastards were so rich. 1 was blind before!” said Xiao Yi with a smile, squeezing his cup to drink the Spiritual Wine.

“Whoever has lived in the marketplace for so many years, has something valuable hidden.” said Lu Zhen, seated at the top, stroking his beard and smiling.

“I think we should have set the price higher!” said Sun Yuan, a thin man who looked like a monkey, patting his bald head and laughing.

“Brother Sun, you’re being a bit hasty!” Qiao Mingzhuo, who had once taken a Stay Age Pill and appeared to be in his twenties despite being over ninety, said mildly.

The only one who didn’t say anything was an old silver-haired woman named Wu Lan. She appeared to disdain to associate with the others, but in fact, she took her full share when dividing the goods.

The five of them knew each other from their time in the marketplace, so they quickly formed teams. They planned to travel together to the Liyang Sect deep in the jungle.

“Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore! Let’s allocate the night patrol tasks first!” said Lu Zhen.

Everyone nodded.

Extorting Spirit Stones was not a matter of urgency, their safety was more important.

“Later, let’s gather all the mid-stage Qi cultivators, each of us will choose a team. Two teams each day will patrol in the first half and second half of the night. What do you think?” Lu Zhen proposed.

“Agreed!”

“I have no objections!”

Everyone nodded again.

After discussing the details, they left the tent and summoned all the mid-stage Qi cultivators on the team.

Soon, all were gathered.

Xu Mu, Lan Shijin, and Leng Yuening were all in the crowd.

As a fourth-tier Qi cultivator, Leng Yuening was naturally included. They had all been tested for their cultivation levels when they joined, even if they wanted to hide, they couldn’t.

After confirming that everyone was present, Lu Zhen and the other four used the Wind Control Skill to slowly rise more than a foot off the ground, looking down at everyone.

“Huh?”

When Xiao Yi scanned the crowded, his eyes brightened when he noticed Leng Yuening.

“Didn’t expect to find such a top-tier one here!” Xiao Yi said excitedly in his heart.

The martial method he practiced required a furnace, and the better the talent, the greater the help to him.

Those who could stand in the team must have reached the Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer or above.

The ordinary cultivator could break through the Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer before the age of thirty is already considered excellent, and Leng Yuening, who is only in her early twenties, obviously has far more talent than the ordinary loose cultivators.

She’s the most suitable target in Xiao Yi’s heart.

Compared to Leng Yuening, Su Qing, who he just recruited, can only be considered average.

He narrowed his eyes, already having a plan.

At this point, Lu Zhen spoke up, “Fellow Daoists, when you joined the patrolling team, you should have known about the patrolling matters. I won’t elaborate on them here. Now our five people will start selecting. If anyone is dissatisfied, you can raise it. We seniors will consider it, and we will absolutely not force or push anyone!”

Of course, everyone had no objections; this was discussed and agreed upon beforehand.

So, starting with Lu Zhen, the five took turns making their selection.

When it was Xiao Yi’s turn, he chose Leng Yuening first.

Xu Mu and Lan Shijin on the side couldn’t help but frown.

The other four all chose the strongest ones first. This guy, however, chose Leng Yuening, the weakest, right from the start.

Anyone with a little discernment could tell that apart from her cultivation level which was barely passable, Leng Yuening wouldn’t excel in other areas.

The other four people, Lu Zhen, had some understanding of Xiao Yi’s situation. In the blink of an eye, they understood his intentions, but they all remained silent.

Leng Yuening, who was chosen, also paused for a while.

She didn’t respond immediately, but unconsciously looked at Xu Mu and Lan Shijin.

Xu Mu didn’t utter a word, Lan Shijin hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

Only then did Leng Yuening take the offered badge, stepping back to stand behind Xiao Yi.

The five continued to select.

In less than the time it took for a cup of tea to brew, all those in the Qi Cultivation Median Stage had been evenly allocated among the five teams.

Xu Mu joined the team of the old crone Wu Lan, Lan Shijin joined the team of Qiao Mingzhuo, who had taken the Stay Age Pill.

Once each team agreed on a gathering time, they dispersed, leaving behind only the team led by Xiao Yi. That’s because they had to patrol for the first half of the night.

Before leaving, Lan Shijin, feeling uneasy, again reminded Leng Yuening a few times, while Xu Mu just wished her to take care.

Actually, there wasn’t much to worry about.

There were only over a hundred of them. For safety’s sake, all the tents were clustered together, and the patrol area was only ten feet around the camp.

Stepping out of the tent, you could see the patrol team.

Perhaps it was due to doing this for the first time, a slight excitement could be seen in the icy expression of Leng Yuening.

Days quickly passed. Besides a few unlucky fellows who were bitten by poisonous insects, nothing major happened in the team.

One could not tell if it was because the others were scared off by the way he had taken action previously, or if the new team structure eliminated any loopholes for the cultivators with ill intentions.

Perhaps the only abnormal thing was Xiao Yi’s overly enthusiastic attitude towards Leng Yuening.

Every time the patrol ended, he would personally escort her back. When it was her turn to patrol, he would also personally come to wake her up.

Knowing that Su Qing knew them, he often used Su Qing as an excuse to come over and express concern, offering gifts to close the distance between them.

Although Xu Mu noticed the abnormality, he didn’t say anything as there was no hostility shown.

Besides, this matter concerned the mother and daughter Lan Shijin. It wasn’t his place to decide.

Moreover, he had spent most of his time in the past few days improving his Light Body Skill and didn’t have much energy to care about these things.

Not until today did the Light Body Skill finally break through to the Grandmaster stage.

His system panel was as follows:

Having broken through, Xu Mu, who was in a good mood, saw Lan Shijin looking upset.

“Friend Lan, what happened?”

“That Xiao Yi wants to take Ning’er as his concubine!”
