Chapter 62: Shock

  Chui Yanfeng, less than a hundred miles away from the Crimson Rock, at this moment there is a group of people busy below, all kinds of spiritual energy mixed in, accompanied by shouts and curses.

  "How's the arrangement?" Lü Ying raised her slender legs, perfect curves that made people want to take a few more glances. But the people below were all honestly lowering their heads, not daring to glance up again.

  "Everything has been arranged properly, and the setup here will be completed soon. At that time, it should achieve the expected effect!"

  "Should I?" Lü Ying suddenly smiled, "If it doesn't work out, aren't we going to end up accompanying him? What kind of combat power does a fifth-rank Open Vein possess, do you need me to tell you?"

  Lü Ying's tone was flat, but the person below him suddenly broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead and didn't dare to wipe it away. "I guarantee that the arrangement will be perfect and you won't suffer any harm!"

  "Haha, you said it yourself, if something really goes wrong, your whole family's lives will be tied to mine." Lü Ying stood up with a smile, her ample chest heaving constantly.

  "Have you changed to a new mosquito repellent recently?"

  Among the marching convoy, someone sniffed and asked. Mosquito repellent is mainly used to drive away mosquitoes in the jungle, and the mosquitoes in this world are fierce. Ordinary people dare not spend the night in the jungle if they are not well prepared. As for cultivators, although they are not afraid, they still need to consume some spirit and it's a hassle.

  Therefore, special mosquito-repelling incense is lit every time one enters the forest. The scent is extremely faint, yet still distinguishable as different.

  Shen Cong paused, turned his head to look at Ma Lu. Ma Lu saw Shen Cong looking over and nodded slightly, "Indeed, I changed to a different kind. The one used in the previous days didn't have a good effect. Master said it once before, so I had someone re-purchase another type. Now the effect is not bad."

  Shen nodded, a wisp of green smoke was inhaled into his nostrils, circulated within his body for a while, and didn't cause any changes. It automatically dispersed after a short while, harmless to humans.

  Ma Lu saw Shen being so cautious and couldn't help but smile, handing over the map he had drawn to Shen Cong. "I'll trouble Brother Shen to give this to the master, I still need to go ahead and take a look around, it's a bit of a bother."

  Shen Cong turned his head to look at Huang Wei and the others, only to find that they were all stifling their faces, and couldn't help but smile wryly. He didn't know how they had found out about what he had done on Yu Nuofeng, but from time to time, they would bring it up to make fun of him. And now that Lin Liting was also in the convoy, she often created opportunities to tease Shen Cong.

  If it were a time when the computer needed to be charged, Shen Cong might have been grateful enough to hug them and take a few bites. But now that the power is sufficient, Shen Cong has nothing to do with this. It's better to stay away from Lin Liting, as beautiful women are often troublemakers, lest they get into trouble. However, it's not good to say this to Huang Wei and others, but it's unavoidable.

  Taking the map, Shen glanced at it and found that it was a route plan. According to the markings on it, they would probably arrive at Chi Hong Rock in less than a day. From the time they set out from Yan Shuang City until now, more than ten days had passed, but they still hadn't covered half of their journey.

  "Wishing my junior brother great success and a beautiful wife!" Huang Wei shouted loudly.

  "If you'd like, you can come with me. There are also a few senior sisters over there who aren't bad, I can introduce you to them." Shen Cong said with a smile.

  "Oh no, my stomach hurts, I'll take my leave first." Huang Weili hastily bowed and retreated. He had heard that Shen Cong had been pursuing Lin Liting and had been rejected several times, so he didn't dare to follow him. Huang Wei thought to himself that he was thin-skinned and couldn't compare to Shen Cong.

  Shen rolled his eyes and walked towards the rear with the map. Along the way, he met several fellow disciples and exchanged greetings. Although they were not familiar with each other, frequent exchanges of greetings would make them seem familiar, which was harmless.

  "Hey, isn't this Shen Cong's little brother? He's here again today, looking for Lin Shimei, I presume?" A sharp laugh rang out, and a figure appeared beside him, eyeing Shen Cong sideways.

  "It's actually Huang Shijie, it's been many days since we last met, and you're even more beautiful." Looking at the ordinary-looking woman in front of him, with an even more ordinary figure, Shen Cong smiled and said.

  The canary's face revealed a hint of satisfaction, "You've eaten quite a few good things these past two days, even your eyes are brighter."

  Shen Congyi smiled and raised the map in his hand. "There's still something I need to ask the master of the house, but I won't disturb Huang Shijie. We can chat again next time we have a chance."

  "What's the hurry, are you going to find that little vixen Lin Liting again? Let me tell you, that vixen may not be great, but she's also not someone you can reach for. Why don't you look for someone more suitable instead?" Huang Que didn't finish her sentence, and instead intentionally struck a pose.

  Shen's mouth twitched slightly, and this oriole didn't know when it was pinched on the forehead. It had been harassing Shen Cong for several days. Although its appearance was ordinary, its confidence was full. Shen Cong's superficial efforts were completely taken seriously.

  "Huh, Ning Shixiong, how did you end up here today?" Shen Cong suddenly exclaimed, Huang Que turned around in surprise, but all he saw was a tree branch. Just as he was about to turn back and ask, Shen Cong had already disappeared.

  "You heartless thing, Eldest Sister has spoiled you!" Huang Que shouted loudly from behind, and Shen Cong couldn't help but shiver. This kind of pampering was truly not something that ordinary people could endure.

  He walked towards the most luxurious vehicle in the middle of the fleet, and just as he was about to approach, a figure emerged from it. Shen Cong was taken aback for a moment, while Shen Cong's chrysanthemum tightened up.

  "Lin shi jie, I didn't expect to run into you here, what a coincidence." Shen subtly shifted his hips.

  Lin Liting looked up and down at Shen Cong, her eyes seeming a bit strange. Logically, Lin Liting should not have any good feelings towards Shen Cong, but since the Jade Girl Peak, she had some changes in her perception of him. It wasn't affection, nor was it dislike, just curiosity. Lin Liting didn't believe that Shen Cong liked her, so why did he act this way?

  "How has your junior brother been lately?" Lin Liting suddenly asked with a smile.

  "It's been a while since I've seen my sister, and I miss her dearly." Shen said calmly, even if it doesn't need to be charged now, but in the future, it will still need to be charged, so it's always good to put in more effort.

  Lin Liting's face turned red, and her eyes showed a hint of shyness. Shen's straightforward words were not something ordinary people could withstand. Even Lin Liting, who had a bold personality, couldn't take it, despite having already experienced it once on the Jade Maiden Peak.

  "How has your elder sister been lately?"

  "It was fine originally, but after seeing my junior brother today, it's a bit bad." Lin Liting looked up at Shen Cong, and this sentence was obviously provocative.

  Shen Cong smiled, "I didn't expect to cause so much trouble for my master's sister. It's really a sin. If Master's sister is truly upset, she can just strike me with a few palm thunderbolts and I'll take it calmly!"

  Shen Cong's fearless appearance made Lin Liting feel a sense of relief, as if he would die without regret. This attitude left Lin Liting stunned.

  "My junior brother still has something to attend to, I'll go and do it first. When I'm free, I'll definitely come find my senior sister to learn from her. I won't go back on my word!" Shen Cong said with a determined expression, "If my senior sister doesn't believe me, we can make a vow by slapping our palms together!"

  Shen Cong said, took Lin Liting's palm and touched it with his own, then disappeared in a flash. Only leaving behind a stunned Lin Liting, she still hasn't reacted until now, until her palm transmitted a slight numbness, did she slightly come to. At this moment, going to find Shen Cong again, where could he be found, he had already disappeared.

  "This bastard, again taking advantage of me!" The lights flashed, Lin Liting's anger ignited, realizing she had been cheated once more. That Shen Cong was indeed a scoundrel, and she had actually been momentarily blinded by him.

  Shen Cong smiled, his palm still seeming to retain a warm and gentle touch. Arriving at the outside of Li Sancai's vehicle, there were guards on both sides. Shen Cong bowed, "Luo Shui Sect disciple Shen Cong, requests an audience with the master."

  Two guards looked at Shen Cong and nodded in recognition, then reported inside and seemed to have received a response. Without stopping him, they let him enter. Shen Cong held the map, pulled open the door curtain and entered, but what he saw was dazzling. The carriage that looked no more than two meters long from the outside had an unexpectedly spacious interior, with both its length and width exceeding ten meters.

  All kinds of facilities are complete, and the rich are indeed extraordinary. It seems that Li Sancai is still the most relaxed in this escort mission, and all the people outside are just errand runners.

  "What brings you here?" Li Sancai sat upright on the upper seat, sipping his wine at this moment. Two guards were still standing around him. On the other side, Wang Shilin was also here, and it seemed that the two of them had been chatting idly just now.

  "This is the map drawn by Ma Dage, presented to the master of the mansion according to the rules." Shen Cong said, presenting the map, and a guard beside him took it away.

  "If nothing else, I'll take my leave first." Sitting with Wang Lin, Shen Cong felt uneasy being with someone so eccentric and decided it was better to leave early.

  "No need to rush, standing guard outside is also tiring. Come and have some wine to warm up." Li Sancai looked at Shen Congxu and knew he was only at the second stage, so he smiled and said.

  Shen Cong paused for a moment, then smiled. Since Li Sancai wanted to show off his closeness to the people, Shen Cong would let him do so. He took the wine and drank it in one gulp. The warm feeling went straight down his throat, and Shen Cong's eyes narrowed involuntarily - indeed, it was good wine.

  As he walked out of the vehicle, a sudden vibration came from afar. Shen Zong was stunned and hadn't realized anything was amiss when the vibration intensified, at this moment even an ordinary person could feel its intensity.

  "Halt all vehicles!"

  Orders came from the front, and the advancing convoy stopped suddenly. The tremors continued, but not as intense as before. Shen didn't dare to delay, and rushed to the front position immediately. Ma Lu was looking at a distance with his eyebrows furrowed.

  "What's wrong?" Shen Cong asked.

  "I didn't know, the tremors came suddenly. We're not far from the Crimson Rock, it's a treacherous place, but I've rarely heard of such intense tremors occurring, unless there's a powerful demon beast fighting, that's the only possibility." Ma Lu shook his head, and as he spoke, the tremors gradually weakened and then disappeared.

  The distance is too far, and it's hard to see what's happening ahead. There aren't any strong spiritual energy fluctuations coming from afar either. Malu thought to himself for a moment before instructing, "Slow down the speed. We're still some distance away from Chi Hong Rock. Today, we can spend the night at Yi Lin and send someone to investigate tomorrow. Stopping here isn't an option."

  This command was transmitted to the rear, and no one opposed it. Ma Lu had the most experience, and several other guides who were also on the same journey made similar suggestions.

  The tremors did not come, and everyone also let out a sigh of relief. In the late afternoon, the convoy finally arrived at Yilin, clearing out an area as usual to set up camp, while others began to start a fire and cook dinner.

  "Shen Cong, where are you? Come out!" A loud shout, with a very bad attitude, several people walked over with their heads held high.

  "Something's happened with a few seniors?" The newcomer didn't recognize everyone, but only saw that one of them had been by Zhao Shi's side. Shen Cong couldn't help but smile and walked out.

  "You're Shen Cong? Without growing three heads and six arms, how dare you be so arrogant and ridiculous!" The leader sneered, shaking out a jade chip that sliced towards Shen Cong's throat, the sound of which echoed through the air.

  "Bang!"

  A jade pendant was steadily falling from Shen's hand.
