After rebirth, I picked up my mortal enemy as my apprentice Chapter 122

Huo Xiaoliang’s eyes were wandering, and he glanced timidly at his feet from time to time, as if he didn’t dare to look at her.

Ke Jiu found it funny. It was obvious that this girl had been aggressive behind her back and looked dissatisfied with her.

“It’s my job. My Jinghang Sect’s territory will not allow such blatant acts of killing and stealing to take place.” Ke Jiu nodded slightly.

“Senior, which lineage are you from?” Huo Xiaoliang looked hesitant.

“I am an inner disciple of Yunjian Peak. You are safe now.”

At this moment, Huo Xiaoliang’s eyes lit up.

“Cough cough…” Lin Xuan, who was being supported by her, was obviously injured a lot. His upper body was slightly curled up, and his shoulders were twitching faintly. With each cough, blood flowed from his lips.

Huo Xiaoliang said hurriedly: “Ah Xuan, what’s wrong with you? Don’t scare me…”

Lin Xuan looked straight at Ke Jiu, and he managed to speak: “Lin Xuan, thank you very much for saving me.”

“Ah Xuan, stop making any noise and take a good rest!”

“I know that the senior from the Immortal Sect has great skills, and his magical powers of bringing back the dead and turning flesh and bones are not a problem,” Huo Xiaoliang looked at Ke Jiu, with a hint of pleading in his eyes, “For the senior, healing Xuan’s injury should be a piece of cake, right?”

“I don’t have any magical power to heal people’s injuries with just a wave of my hand,” Ke Jiu shook his head gently, “and you and I are not related at all, why should I help you?”

Huo Xiaoliang’s expression changed slightly when he heard this.

“As long as senior saves Axuan, I will offer you the green spiritual fruit in my hand.” As she spoke, she raised the crystal spiritual fruit in her arms.

When Ke Jiu smelled the fragrance emanating from the Qingling Fruit, he felt a slight warmth coming from the true energy in his Dantian, as if it was stirring.

“Can’t I just take it? Why should I wait for you to offer it?”

Huo Xiaoliang gritted his teeth: “Because I know that Senior is a good person and would never do such a thing as bullying others by taking advantage of his power.”

What a naive girl you are, pinning your hopes on the other person being a good person.

“What if I say no?”

Huo Xiaoliang’s face turned pale in an instant. He paused slightly, and after steadying Lin Xuan, he bent his knees.

She actually wanted to kneel down directly.

A breeze blew by, and Ke Jiu held up the scabbard of Jieyun’s sword to support Huo Xiaoliang’s body.

Huo Xiaoliang was stunned and twisted his hands together, as if he didn’t know where to put them.

“Forget it. There’s no point in making things difficult for you. I have two resurrection pills on me that can restore your strength and heal your wounds. You can use the Qingling fruit in your hand to make a deal with me.”

These two pills are rare even in the inner sect of Jinghang Sect. The requirements for refining are quite strict, and Bailing Peak cannot produce them stably every year.

Her face lit up with joy, and she quickly bowed and said, “Thank you, senior!”

After saying that, he was about to hand over the two Qingling Fruits in his hand, but on the way, Lin Xuan suddenly pressed one of Huo Xiaoliang’s hands.

He looked at the girl’s surprised face and shook his head: “One… is enough.”

“A Xuan…” Huo Xiaoliang hesitated a little, but seeing Lin Xuan insisted, he nodded slightly.

Ke Jiu’s eyes flashed behind Bai Ling’s mask. There were still some aspects of Lin Xuan that were beyond her expectations.

After the exchange of the elixir, Ke Jiu said calmly: “If you want the Rejuvenating Pill to exert its maximum medicinal power, you need to meditate and concentrate your mind.”

“Thank you for your guidance, senior.”

Ke Jiu nodded, and suddenly changed the subject: “Speaking of which, none of our sect disciples have discovered this cave, how did you discover it?”

Lin Xuan said calmly, “Senior, to be honest… my master is Ma Jun, who was once an outer disciple of the Jinghang Sect. Due to some things, he left the sect in his later years, but his heart is still here. He told me before that he was the disciple responsible for patrolling the mountains outside the sect, and he is quite familiar with the situation here.”

Ke Jiu said calmly: “Are you hiding something?”

Lin Xuan’s expression changed. Could it be that she had discovered my special spiritual perception?

He still pretended to be calm on the surface and said: “Lin Xuan, I don’t know what the senior means by hiding. Can you explain it more clearly?”

“Isn’t the aura on my body very similar to the aura of the spiritual plant you sensed?”

This time, Lin Xuan could no longer suppress the surprise on his face: “Since I have been discovered by the senior, it would be too foolish for me to continue to play dumb. I am naturally sensitive to the spiritual energy emitted by spiritual plants. This cave… I found it by relying on this talent.”

Ke Jiu’s heart moved slightly. Could it be that he could sense it?

But when I was hiding my aura just now, he obviously didn’t notice, so the spiritual energy I exude is very important.

However, despite this, he is still very valuable. The sect’s barrier has become increasingly unstable recently.

It is unknown when Lingxu Cave Heaven will open, so… bring him along during the assessment, and maybe you will discover that Lingxu Cave Heaven is open.

“It’s fate that we met. My little sister Nan Ke is also a contestant in this entrance examination. If you don’t mind, you can ask her to form a team.”

Huo Xiaoliang was startled and remembered the girl he met before.

“Is there any problem?” Ke Jiu asked knowingly.

Huo Xiaoliang murmured: “We have invited her before, but she refused.”

“Then just tell her that’s what I meant, and she will agree to your request to form a team.”

When Lin Xuan thought of the girl he met not long ago, an indescribable feeling surged in his chest.

“Senior, where is Miss Nan? How are we going to find her later?”

“She should have come down the mountain and found a place to rest in the hotel at the foot of the mountain. If your innate magical powers allow, you will naturally know how to find her without me saying anything more.”

“Thank you, senior.” Lin Xuan bowed to Ke Jiu.

“See you later.”

Ke Jiu turned around, and the Jieyun automatically floated to her feet. She rode on the sword and turned into a white rainbow and left the cave.

Lin Xuan was still staring in the direction she left, not knowing what he was thinking.

Huo Xiaoliang patted his shoulder.

“Ah…” Feeling the pain in his body, Lin Xuan gradually regained consciousness.

“Ah Xuan, please stop looking. Your injuries are still very serious!”

On the other side, Ke Jiu had just come out of the cave when he immediately felt a strong sense of weakness.

The true energy in her Dantian quickly receded, and in a short while she shrank from an adult woman to a girl in her teens.

She scanned the surroundings with her spiritual sense and confirmed that no one was nearby, then she breathed a sigh of relief.

She glanced at the Qingling Fruit in her hand, and the green lotus in her dantian began to stir, as if there was something in the Qingling Fruit that it really needed.

“After absorbing the spiritual energy of this fruit, my realm should be more stable, right?”

……

……

The young man lay on his back on the ground, staring blankly at the sky, his body so tired that he seemed unable to move.

Shen Jue put on a frivolous smile, slowly walked up to him and asked: “How do you feel?”

Ji Fan gasped and tried to stand up on his own, but found that he was totally unable to do so in his current condition.

Shen Jue laughed and said, “You are the only one who wants to challenge me. You don’t know your place.”

“Haha, I’m really sorry that I couldn’t let Uncle Shen Jue use his full strength, but I can still continue!”

“Too much is as bad as too little. The sect’s disciple assessment will begin tomorrow. If you overtrain, it will only hurt your body.”

“Listen, Master Shen, I’ll take a break tonight,” the young man suddenly changed the subject, “Has Master come out of seclusion? Can we contact her? Will she come tomorrow?”

“Here we go again?” Shen Jue covered his face and sighed, “Are you Shi Baonan?”

Ji Fan: “…”
