Chapter 1327: Coercing Me For Rewards

Ning Shu silently lit a candle for the poor children who had been tricked by Lord Qing Hua.

Lord Qing Hua truly seemed worried that there wasnt enough chaos in the world. He was seriously two-faced.

Ning Shu even suspected that Lord Qing Hua had known the original hosts ident.i.ty when he accepted her as his disciple. It must be said that the original hosts apt.i.tude was not that good. She had triple spiritual roots of earth, wood, and fire. Shed be able to build her foundation smoothly, but it would be difficult for her to go beyond the foundation stage. If she was lucky and had some fortuitous encounters, she may be able to reach the golden core stage, but that would be as far as she could go.

The more Ning Shu thought about it, the more she felt like Xiao Susu must have been found out early on by Lord Qing Hua.

After realizing that, Ning Shu became even more reluctant about joining Immortal Sect. She wanted to quit!

But it was definitely impossible for her to leave now. She had already reached this point in the sect admission test. If she backed out now, it would certainly arouse suspicion. Everyone wanted to cultivate and pursue immortality, so it would look strange if she alone didnt.

Whats more, she had a ticking time bomb on her. This bomb was the seal that Xiao Susus father had placed on her. With it, he could blow her to bits with a single thought.

How depressing!

What about you guys? Why arent you guys running? asked Lord Qing Hua as he looked towards Ning Shu, Qiu Mu, and Yu Linger.

I still have to rely on this woman to protect me, said Qiu Mu. He inched closer to Ning Shu.

Ning Shu: Rely. On. My. a.s.s. (o)

Who wants to protect you!? As a man, you should be protecting women. Do you have any sense of shame?

I definitely wouldnt believe you. Yu Linger curled her lips with contempt.

Ning Shu said, Im hungry. I didnt eat breakfast, so my legs feel very weak.

The corners of Lord Qing Huas lips hooked up, but he didnt say anything.

Are you hungry? You can have this meat pie. Qiu Mu took out a meat pie from his bag and gave it to Ning Shu. Ning Shu accepted it and began to eat. After all, she still had to walk to Immortal Sects gate and then climb up so many stairs.

When Qiu Mu saw Ning Shu enjoying it so much, he pulled out another meat pie and started eating as well.

The others also started taking out their rations one after another. It made those children who were tricked by Lord Qing Hua seem really pitiful. They hadnt even gotten to have a single drop of water before starting such intense exercise and making such a pointless trip.

Ning Shu finished eating her pie and asked Qiu Mu for another one. Qiu Mu gave Ning Shu one more while muttering discontentedly, Why are you eating so much? These pies were made for me by my mother.

Qiu Mu was dressed in silk clothing so it was obvious that he was a young master from the prestigious family. Ning Shu had only helped him once in pa.s.sing, but he ended up clinging to her.

Since you want me to protect you, you should repay me in some way. Is your life not even worth two meat pies? asked Ning Shu.

Qiu Mu shot her a sidelong glance. Everyone says that kindness doesnt need to be repaid. Right now, you are coercing me for rewards.

This kid...

Ning Shu had finished eating, so she lay down on the ground on rest. Shed have to run a marathon later after all.

The people who had left earlier all returned one by one, looking pale, and then they collapsed on the ground while panting.

Ning Shu felt tired just from looking at them.

Gong Hao, go and see if anyone is still missing, said Lord Qing Hua to Gong Hao.

Gong Hao cupped his fist, then went out to find the people who had run too far off.

It wasnt long before Gong Hao returned with a person in each hand.

Respected cultivator, why trick us? A person stepped forward and asked.

Lord Qing Hua raised his eyebrows and replied with a scornful gaze, So what if I tricked you guys? Do you think the path to immortality is that easy to pursue? This world is very dangerous and there are an endless number of demonic beasts. On top of that, there are demons who eat humans and even among the humans, there are many people with sinister motives. Should you guys really be blindly believing anything I say?

Those of the demon race are very good at deceiving people. They would only need to say a few words for you guys to obediently send yourselves into their mouths, said Lord Qing Hua with an arrogant and contemptuous look on his face.

The angry expressions on the faces of the deceived people disappeared at those words and they became ashamed of themselves.

Now start running to Immortal Sects gate, said Lord Qing Hua coldly. His body suddenly exuded an immense pressure that made it hard for them to breathe.

Run that way. Gong Hao pointed in a certain direction.
