How can you still give merit to saving sentient beings?

Chapter 14

It was dusk during the second break, and the sky was filled with brilliant clouds.

After walking through most of the journey, everyone still chose to rest at the top of the mountain. It was not only clean but also convenient for dealing with various emergencies.

Originally, Ning Shuang was worried that Shuo Ming would be bullied in matters such as eating, but fortunately Feng Tian looked after him along the way, and he was not treated harshly.

During this period, disciples from different sects came to ask Ning Shuang for advice on exercises and other matters, and she would give them a few words of advice when she had time.

Shuo Ming, who had been unlocked from the door, sat abnormally under a tree not far from Ning Shuang, looking at her quietly.

Although Ning Shuang's expression and behavior were the same as usual, Shuo Ming had a vague feeling that if she walked over, she would definitely see an even colder face than before.

It's not that he's against it, but he's worried that she'll be upset because of it.

Ning Shuang could naturally feel the cautious gaze falling on her, but she didn't know what it meant.

Are you annoyed that Senior Sister Feng didn't leave any room for him to speak, or are you worried about her attitude towards the inner disciples?
While thinking, he caught a glimpse of Shuo Ming suddenly getting up and running towards the forest in a hurry. When he came back, he had a handful of fruit in his arms.

He picked out a few of the better ones, cleaned them, showed his usual clear smile, and went straight to Ning Shuang.

But when there were only two steps left, Ning Shuang suddenly closed her eyes, Shuo Ming couldn't help but pause at her feet, and there was a hint of loss in her stiff smile.

He frowned slightly, looked down at the fruits in his hand, gently placed them next to Ning Shuang, and returned to their original position.

Feng Tian, ​​who was resting nearby, rolled her eyes in frustration. Seeing her junior brother being so aggressive and uncomfortable, she couldn't help but hold the woman and lecture her, so she had no choice but to throw the straw in her hand. land.

The junior disciples around him were so frightened that they trembled.

In fact, when Ning Shuang closed her eyes, she had already opened her spiritual consciousness, paying attention to Shuo Ming's every move.

Shuo Ming left the best fruit to her. She knew his kindness, but she could only thank him in her heart.

However, the merit book was impartial and impartial, and immediately and mercilessly deducted thousands of merits that Ning Shuang had worked hard to accumulate.

Ning Shuang's heart twitched, and she turned to ask the system: How is Shuo Ming's injury?

The system responded quickly this time: [Senior Sister Feng gave him medicine for his injuries, and he will be fully recovered in half an hour. 】

That's good, Ning Shuang breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved.

Watching the red sun set, the sparse stars climbed into the sky as the night fell.

Everyone got up and prepared to complete the last journey at night.

They had already decided on a route before setting off. They would first rescue the Yuanyun Pavilion, which was the closest among the Northwest Sect, and then head north while resting.

Along the way, we can see that many lands are shrouded in black smoke and evil spirits breed. There are almost no places that are completely clear.

Ning Shuang looked anxious, but couldn't separate herself. She thought that when she returned to the fairyland this time, she must propose to the Immortal Lord that it would be safe to send two more people to the same mortal world in the future.

A few hundred meters away from Yuanyun Pavilion, everyone stopped.

Under the pitch-black night, one could still see that Yuanyun Pavilion, located on the outskirts of the city, was glowing with death. Purple-red dark lights swam in wisps in the sky, eroding every inch of it like thin snakes.

This gathering was organized by the Luo Qing faction. Although the route had been set, specific strategies needed to be agreed upon based on the actual situation.

The elders of the Luoqing sect deliberately let Jiang Fengqi take charge of the matter and signaled him with his eyes to put forward his own ideas.

Jiang Fengqi did not refuse. He raised his hand and pointed to three points around Yuanyun Pavilion and said: "The terrain here is flat and suitable for siege. It can be divided into three parties. The number of people is just right and they can support each other. What do you think?"

After discussion, most of them agreed to this plan.

Ning Shuang had no objection, but just looking from a distance, the purple-red light seemed to be even, but in fact it was more concentrated in one place.

At this moment, she should have taken more risks, so she pointed out the discovery and expressed her willingness to go there alone.

In this way, the remaining people are divided into two groups, which not only have a better chance of winning, but also can better take care of each other.

The Luo Qing faction was well aware of Ning Shuang's strength. Jiang Fengqi and the elders looked at each other without any objection.

Seeing the reaction of everyone in Luo Qing, other sects hesitated and chose to acquiesce. "This is not a show of force. You don't have to be like this." Feng Tian's blunt words contained a hint of worry.

She didn't expect that Ning Shuang would not flinch when encountering a problem, although it was indeed a more appropriate allocation. "Besides, what if all the evil spirits are concentrated on you?"

Ning Shuang had anticipated this possibility: "It doesn't matter. If they gather towards me and you happen to outflank them from the back, we can still surround them."

Hearing this, Feng Tian crossed his arms and lowered his head in thought.

Some people from other sects couldn't help but advise: "Isn't it better that Immortal Shuangchen bring a few people over?"

Ning Shuang shook her head: "When encountering danger, it's good that I can distract them to protect them. If I can't find Kong, wouldn't their lives with me be in vain?"

Knowing that she intended to protect her, no one said anything, and they all clasped their fists in thanks.

After the teams were divided and before setting off, Jiang Fengqi reminded: "These monsters are good at disguising themselves, so please be careful."

The news brought by Feng Tian has already spread. The whereabouts of some monsters are difficult to determine. They may find out the situation without everyone noticing, and some may have the idea to deceive the disciples of the Immortal Sect.

Ning Shuang suggested using her cultivation as a mark. Although it was not guaranteed to be foolproof, it was still a feasible method.

This kind of technique consumes cultivation, and even if anyone knows about it, they may not be willing to take action.

Therefore, even Feng Tian's eyes changed, and she suddenly felt that she couldn't see through Ning Shuang.

Why is she so dedicated, gentle and friendly to everyone, but only treats her junior brother like that? Is it because she really doesn't like him and is being chased by Shuo Ming?
After Ning Shuang marked everyone in order, it was finally Shuo Ming's turn.

The system came to protest: [Don’t miss such a good opportunity, don’t give it to him! 】

Ning Shuang persuaded me with good words: The danger is unpredictable right now. It would be bad if it really hurts my life. The worst I can do is to have a bad attitude.

The system choked: [You...]

Ning Shuang looked at Shuo Ming with a cold face and was about to take action, but was stopped by him.

"Shuangchen, don't waste your cultivation like this all the time. Leave more to protect yourself. I don't need a mark."

He continued with a firm look: "If someone pretends to be you, I will definitely recognize him."

Ning Shuang was moved by his look and tone. She didn't dare to say this kind of promise easily.

Thinking that Senior Sister Feng would hold him back, there shouldn't be any big problem. Ning Shuang glanced at him and turned away.

The three parties were about to take action when Shuo Ming suddenly ran towards Ning Shuang: "I'm worried about you. Let me go with you. At least there will be someone to take care of you."

"That's not necessary. If you go, it will only cause trouble for me."

Ning Shuang was startled by his surprise, and left in a hurry after speaking coldly.

Feng Tian looked at the magic mark on her wrist and quickly grabbed her junior brother: "Don't make trouble. Do you still want to act as you please at this time?"

"But I'm worried..."

"I'm worried that you won't be able to help. Instead, it will easily cause trouble for her." Feng Tian patted Shuo Ming on the shoulder, "Please practice more diligently in the future."

Shuo Ming couldn't help but frown. He didn't want to stand side by side with Ning Shuang, but for some reason, no matter how hard he tried, it was difficult to make progress.

But he risked his life for her.

Shuo Ming was still uneasy, and he felt that he should still go to Ning Shuang.

So when everyone was moving, he retreated secretly.

Everyone was nervous, but no one immediately noticed that he was missing.

When Ning Shuang saw Shuo Ming suddenly appearing in front of her, a feeling of helplessness suddenly surged into her heart.
