Chapter 151: Pushing the Mountain with Peerless Qi
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Ge Xiu still did not understand why Lu Yuan was so confident that Shan Yao could defeat the five-hundred-year-old demon.
The potential of Shan Yao was not bad.
However, in Ge Xiu’s eyes, she was still just a child.
An eleven-year-old child had to fight a five-hundred-year cultivation demon.
No matter how one looked at it, this was a ridiculous matter.
However, although he felt that Lu Yuan’s arrangement this time was a little ridiculous, Ge Xiu did not think to stop him.
Because not long after Shan Yao left, a figure quietly followed.
That figure was very ghostly. Not only did it move silently, but it could also turn into a shadow and hide in the surrounding darkness.
Even if an ordinary person knew of her existence, it would not be easy to find her, let alone discover her.
The people who followed Shan Yao were naturally arranged by Lu Yuan.
Although Lu Yuan was very confident in the luck of Shan Yao, it did not mean that Lu Yuan would be totally unprepared.
He had tasked Xu Wan’er to secretly follow and protect her.
Even the mountain peak used for the expedition was the result of Lu Yuan’s careful selection.
It could be said that Lu Yuan’s seemingly casual decisions were made after careful consideration.
As a steady person, Lu Yuan would not take risks easily.
This was not only for himself but also for the people around him.
And the reason why he wanted to let Shan Yao undergo a special expedition was that Lu Yuan wanted to increase her strength as soon as possible.
Shan Yao was already eleven years old and her cultivation had reached the first stage of the Connate Realm.
There were six years left until the opening of the Forbidden Land, Myriad Bone Forest.
By the time the Myriad Bone Forest opened, Shan Yao was almost seventeen years old.
With Shan Yao’s current cultivation speed, Lu Yuan estimated that the child would at least be at innate sixth or seventh stage cultivation by the time she turned seventeen.
Such strength was definitely not weak in the first half of the Tidal Moon.
This was because the cultivators who could enter the Full Moon Mountain Range were those with the cultivation at the Foundation Establishment Stage.
At that time, Lu Yuan would be able to bring Shan Yao to the Myriad Bone Forest.
In Lu Yuan’s own words, he was prepared to ride on the luck of Shan Yao and get a free ride.
After all, if he were to rely solely on himself, he was not confident that he could find a divine item like the White Bone Crystal in the Myriad Bone Forest.
However, if Shan Yao went with him, things would be different.
This child… had luck!
Ignoring Lu Yuan’s current thoughts, Shan Yao entered the mountain that Lu Yuan had asked her to.
As soon as she entered the mountain forest, Shan Yao encountered a thick foul smell.
Faced with the dense foul smell, Shan Yao, who had outstanding five senses, immediately frowned.
Because that smell made her feel very pungent.
Left with no choice, Shan Yao pinched her nose with one hand and ran toward the top of the mountain.
Although she was small, the speed at which she moved was not slow at all.
When Shan Yao reached the mountainside, she quickly ran into trouble.
“Tsk tsk… Where did this little girl come from? She dared to come to our king’s territory by herself. Wasn’t this a delicacy that was delivered to our doorstep?” The three small demons patrolling the mountain excitedly blocked her way when they saw Shan Yao.
Facing the three mushroom-like trolls, Shan Yao asked innocently, “Big mushrooms, did you see what Sir threw here?”
The ‘three mushrooms’ looked at each other, and then one of the purple troll laughed strangely and said, “Of course, I saw it. Why don’t you follow us and we’ll take you there to get it?”
In the face of the invitation from the three mushrooms, Shan Yao’s pair of cute and beautiful eyes sparkled.
“All right!”
Seeing that Shan Yao was so easily fooled, the three large mushrooms immediately approached her happily.
It was so easy to deceive little children these days. It was so rare!
When he came to the side of Shan Yao, a big mushroom said, “Then follow us, we…”
However, just as the big mushroom was speaking halfway, a fist that had been prepared for a long time suddenly came towards it.
Boom!
This punch was like a meteorite, landing fiercely on the face of the big mushroom.
The terrifying power from the punch immediately made the big mushroom’s face start to twist.
Before the other two big mushrooms could react, the ambushed big mushroom was already been sent flying away like a broken doll.
And the person who sent it flying with this punch was the previously seemingly benign Shan Yao.
The other two mushrooms were stunned as they looked at Shan Yao who still held the punching posture.
Although the mushrooms were stunned, Shan Yao was not.
Almost immediately after the first punch, Shan Yao attacked the remaining two large mushrooms.
Bang, Bang…
Accompanied by two heavy muffled sounds, the two small demons followed in the footsteps of the first small demon and were sent flying by Shan Yao’s punch.
If they had not seen it with their own eyes, who would have thought that an eleven-year-old girl could have such terrifying strength?
This was also the case where Shan Yao had held back a lot of her strength. Otherwise, these three small demons would not have simply been sent flying. They would have been killed with a single punch.
The three seriously injured small demons looked at Shan Yao in horror.
Firstly, they did not understand why they were beaten up. Secondly, they did not understand why a little fellow like Shan Yao had such terrifying strength. How were her fists soft and tender? They were clearly two big hammers! The kind that could shatter the top of one’s head with a single punch!
Not only did the three small demons not understand, even Xu Wan’er, who was hiding in the dark, was secretly speechless.
For some reason, a sentence suddenly appeared in Xu Wan’er’s mind.
“A neighbor’s daughter has just grown up, with great power and an unparalleled temperament!”
She hadn’t noticed it when they were in the village.
Only after they left the village could she truly understand how terrifying Shan Yao was.
However, this girl, Shan Yao… When did she become so smart?
She even knew to trick the enemy into coming over for a fight. Was she still that silly girl who misunderstood the Analects of Confucius?
Something was wrong. Yeah!
The same doubt also appeared in the hearts of the three small demons. They also did not know why they were beaten up.
There was no reason. It made no sense!
However, Shan Yao explained very quickly.
Shan Yao looked at the three wounded small demons and muttered to herself, “Sir said that a gentleman doesn’t stand under a wall. You have to learn to strike first and not give the other party a chance to attack.”
“I think he wants me to beat up whoever 1 think is fishy.”
“Weapon Sir also said that when a person is about to die, his words are kind. As long as I beat a person to near death, he won’t lie to me.”
“I don’t know if you’re lying to me, so I’ll beat you half to death first. That way, you won’t lie to me.”
The pupils of the three small demons constricted when they heard that.
“Is your sir a devil? Is this something that can be taught to children?” the small demons thought.
When Xu Wan’er heard the unique understanding of Shan Yao, she almost fell off the tree.
Xu Wan’er was speechless.
“Shan Yao, if I were Young Master, I don’t know whether to laugh or cry after hearing your words,” she thought to herself.
“I feel that Young Master should be crying more.”
“I can’t say that there’s a problem with your understanding. I can only say that your understanding… is very unique.”
“An ordinary person would definitely not be able to interpret Young Master’s words to this extent.”
“But…. There was still no problem!”
