Chapter 395: Three hundred ninety-four, connected by bloodlines Chapter 395: Three hundred ninety-four, connected by bloodlines Song Yan Ning and Qin Yushen shook their heads, “You don’t have to do this.” If the roles were reversed, they might do the same.
“Then can I be your friend?” Wei Lingfeng looked at Song Yan Ning and Qin Yushen with a hint of hope in his eyes.
“Of course.” After this interaction, Wei Lingfeng had left a good impression on them.
Wei Lingfeng lifted his face into a happy smile, “My name is Wei Lingfeng.”
“Song Shen.”
“Qin Ning.” Qin Yushen and Song Yan Ning also introduced themselves.
“My name is Yuan Yixiu.” Yuan Yixiu was very happy. When he was at the Yuan Family, he had always been a loner, never having a friend. Now that he was in the Spiritual Realm, not only had he become friends with Song Shen and Qin Ning, but he had also made another friend.
“Have you completed your task? I have a few extra Spirit Grasses here.” Wei Lingfeng took out several stalks of Spirit Grass and handed them to Qin Yushen. His team members had all been devoured by the Resounding Spirit Snake, leaving him alone. He had already chosen a teammate for this level, so he could only wait to team up with Song Shen and the others on the next level.
Qin Yushen shook his head, “We have already finished, you keep them for yourself.”
Wei Lingfeng was somewhat surprised.
“Have you completed it?” Yuan Yixiu asked. He was very fortunate to have teamed up with Song Shen and the others, otherwise, he definitely wouldn’t have been able to complete the task alone.
Wei Lingfeng smiled and shook his head, “I’m still a bit short, but there’s still plenty of time. I should be able to finish it. I will take my leave then.” Originally, he had thought that if they hadn’t completed their task, he would have looked for the remaining items together with them. Since they had finished their task, he felt it would be inappropriate to waste their time.
“What are you still missing now?” Song Yan Ning asked.
“There’s no need, I can find them on my own. It’s more satisfying that way.” Waving at Song Yan Ning and the others, Wei Lingfeng walked forward.
“Go to the place where we found ours, all the Spirit Grass and materials we found were there.” Yuan Yixiu called out to Wei Lingfeng.
“Great!” Wei Lingfeng nodded with a smile.
After parting ways with Wei Lingfeng, Song Yan Ning and the others arrived at the place where they had originally accepted the task. There was no one there now, which meant that they were the first ones to complete the task.
“I wonder who will be the second?” Yuan Yixiu was a bit curious.
Qin Yushen pulled Song Yan Ning to the side and sat down on a rock, handing her a bottle of water.
Song Yan Ning smiled as she took the water.
Yuan Yixiu looked at Qin Yushen and Song Yan Ning with envy, then he turned his eyes and pointed to a spot not far away, “I’ll go for a walk over there.” With him around, they surely had a lot of things they wouldn’t feel comfortable to say.
“Okay.” Song Yan Ning and Qin Yushen nodded.
Yuan Yixiu smiled and walked away.
“I didn’t expect the scenery here to be so good.” Yuan Yixiu admired the magnificent, towering mountains in the distance. He hadn’t paid them much attention before, but now that he stopped, he realized what he had missed out on.
Yuan Yu’er stumbled and ran until she couldn’t run anymore, then stopped, panting heavily. Ever since that day her companions were killed, she had been on her own. As a female cultivator, she was naturally bullied.
She had finally seen a Spirit Grass and was about to pick it, when someone else snatched it away before she could. Arguing with the person nearly cost her life, and if she hadn’t escaped quickly, she would be dead by now. All of this was caused by that useless Yuan Yixiu. If she ever saw Yuan Yixiu, she would never let him go.
Seeing someone ahead, Yuan Yu’er immediately thought to hide, but after recognizing who it was, her eyes narrowed slightly, and a cold smile curled on her lips. Yuan Yixiu, you’ve delivered yourself to my doorstep, so don’t blame me.
She slowly gathered a Light Ball in her hand. She planned to wait until Yuan Yixiu got closer before she made her move.
Upon seeing Yuan Yu’er, a flicker of joy crossed Yuan Yixiu’s eyes. No matter what, Yu’er was his sister, and he couldn’t possibly be indifferent to her.
“Yu’er, how did you get hurt?” seeing the bloodstains on Yuan Yu’er, Yuan Yixiu ran over anxiously.
“Idiot!” Yuan Yu’er looked at Yuan Yixiu, her eyes filled only with disdain and mockery.
Watching Yuan Yixiu approaching closer, Yuan Yu’er waved her hand, and the gathered light surged toward him.
Yuan Yixiu tried to dodge quickly, but he was just too close to Yuan Yu’er, and her cultivation was higher than his, leaving him with no way to avoid the attack.
The blinding light, along with a powerful force, struck Yuan Yixiu’s chest, sending him flying backward.
“Bang!” Yuan Yixiu hit the ground hard, fresh blood continuously spilling from the corner of his mouth.
Yuan Yu’er walked up to Yuan Yixiu, looking down at him with a cold laugh.
“Why…” Yuan Yixiu looked up at Yuan Yu’er, eyes filled with pain, despair, bitterness, and a hint of unwillingness. They were siblings bound by blood. Did she truly hate him so much that she wanted him dead?
“Because you are a waste. Do you know how much ridicule the Yuan Family has suffered because of you? If you disappear from this world, the Yuan Family will never be laughed at again, so you must die.” Thinking of how much more glorious the Yuan Family would be without Yuan Yixiu, a bright smile appeared on Yuan Yu’er’s face.
Yuan Yixiu slowly closed his eyes. He had never wished to be a waste, but this wasn’t something he could decide.
“Now that you understand, go die.” Yuan Yu’er lifted her foot and stomped toward Yuan Yixiu’s Dantian.
Song Yan Ning and Qin Yushen were worried because Yuan Yixiu hadn’t returned.
“Let’s go look for Yuan Yixiu,” Song Yan Ning stood up, pulling Qin Yushen in the direction Yuan Yixiu had left in.
After walking for almost half an hour, Qin Yushen saw someone lying on the side of the road, “There’s someone on the ground up ahead; it’s Yuan Yixiu.”
Song Yan Ning saw Yuan Yixiu on the ground too and quickly walked over with Qin Yushen.
Arriving next to Yuan Yixiu, Song Yan Ning crouched down, checked him, and sighed, “He’s dead, and his Storage Bag has been stolen as well.” She guessed that someone had the intention to murder for loot.
Song Yan Ning took out a Lotus Seed Pill and placed it in Yuan Yixiu’s mouth. Whether he could come back to life was up to Yuan Yixiu’s own fate. His Dantian was destroyed, and even if he woke up, he could no longer cultivate.
Qin Yushen’s face darkened as he released his Divine Sense to scan the surroundings. Soon, he spotted a familiar figure, “Yuan Yu’er is up ahead.”
“Do you think Yuan Yu’er did this?” Song Yan Ning immediately understood Qin Yushen’s implication.
“Mhm.” Qin Yushen nodded.
“But she and Yuan Yixiu are siblings,” Song Yan Ning shook her head with some disbelief. Even if siblings couldn’t get along, it shouldn’t come to murdering each other, especially since Yuan Yixiu had helped her before.
