Peerless Tang Sect's Shepherd Star Silver Dragon

Chapter 70 Upgrade Exam 4
  Si Mu Qing raised his sword and knocked over the eighth thousand-year soul beast, the Human-Faced Demon Spider.

The boy on the side skillfully tied them up with ropes.

Si Muqing fell into deep contemplation, why he thought of crabs when he saw this ugly spider.

"Boss, we have received news about the last two thousand-year soul beasts."

"It's a black-scaled python, just to the north, and a golden lion to the east." A round-faced boy quickly ran to Si Muqing and handed over a map.

Si Muqing unfolded the map, marked two red dots on it, and roughly estimated the distance.

"I'll go right away and go to Yeyun's place to calculate the rewards." Si Muqing said.

After the game started, Yejun found a place to set up a stall and charge "fees" to treat injuries.

After being found by him, he was responsible for treating injuries, calculating achievements, and issuing rewards.

The rewards are naturally the resources thrown in by the academy, including various soul tools and low-level treasures.

After Si Muqing finished speaking, he directly used space transfer, and the figure disappeared from the place.

A group of people smiled bitterly. The boss was too resolute and left with the Man-Faced Demon Spider.

Si Muqing kept walking, and the scenery changed.

Suddenly a fireball hit his face, Si Muqing drew his sword, the colorful halo spread, the fireball disappeared without a trace as the elements were peeled off, and the sword energy soared into the sky.

This scene had a strong sense of déjà vu. He had slashed it with a sword some time ago.

"Elemental stripping is used well. After a month of practice, you can finally say that you have entered the palace."

The familiar voice commented on Si Muqing's sword and skill.

"But this sword is not as good as your sword that destroyed the Netherworld White Tiger."

"Na'er, why do you use fireballs to greet me?" Si Muqing asked with a wry smile to the girl with flawless appearance, long hair and slender waist.

"That's not a greeting." Gu Yuena said without changing her expression.

"I just noticed someone approaching here very fast, so I threw a fireball."

"If you can't even take the temptation, it's not worth wasting my time."

Gu Yuena naturally raised her head slightly with a proud expression.

Si Muqing had a shining silver necklace in his hand. The pendant was in the shape of a four-leaf clover and emitted faint fluctuations of soul power. He handed it to Gu Yuena.

"A gift for you." Si Muqing briefly expressed what he meant.

"Put it on for me." Gu Yuena raised the corners of her mouth, turned around, and pushed her hair in front of her with her right hand, revealing her fair and slim neck.

Si Muqing unlocked the lock, held one side of it with both hands, wrapped his arms around Na'er, held the necklace with both hands from both sides of Na'er's neck, and moved it to the back, and his fingers lightly brushed against the skin.

"Okay." Si Muqing put his hands on Na'er's shoulders, turned her around, took a step back, and looked up and down.

"Compared with you, all jewelry pales in comparison." Si Muqing shook his head and sighed.

Gu Yuena's right hand gently pressed the pendant hanging on her chest, her heartbeat accelerated and her cheeks turned slightly red.

Two pairs of magnificent purple eyes faced each other, and a thousand words could not be said.

Gu Yuena's slender and soft arms hugged Si Muqing upwards, and Si Muqing also hugged her slender waist and couldn't help but lower his head.

After a long and suffocating kiss, Gu Yuena gently leaned into Si Muqing's arms.

"Are you here for that black-scaled python? Then you're late."

"I'll just go find another thousand-year soul beast." Si Muqing said relaxedly, "There's enough time."

"The thousand-year-old soul beasts I need have been captured. It just so happens that I still have information on a few extra thousand-year-old soul beasts. I will accompany you next."

Si Muqing was silent for a moment after hearing Gu Yuena's words, and doubts arose in her heart.

"How did you get this information? Is it related to your identity?"

"What do you think knows best about this place?"

"Teacher, senior." Si Muqing blurted out. "It's these soul beasts." Gu Yuena sighed and moved her lips slightly.

There was a rustling sound, and a huge dark green python snaked out of the ground.

The black-scaled python cautiously tried to please Gu Yuena.

"No one knows the distribution of the thousand-year soul beasts here better than they do."

Gu Yuena waved her hand, and the black-scaled python returned to the ground again.

"My Na'er is so amazing!" Si Muqing applauded warmly.

"It's a pity that I organized people to collect intelligence, and after struggling with a lot of people, I still can't compare to my Na'er!"

"A lot of people?" Gu Yuena thought deeply, "Where is your talent for spiritual communication?"

"Very good." Si Muqing couldn't figure out the meaning of Gu Yuena's words.

"Spiritual communication can ignore the problem of racial and language barriers. As long as you don't have any malicious intentions, you can ask these soul beasts for help or obtain the information in their memories through spiritual communication."

Si Muqing stiffened when he heard Gu Yuena's words.

So what have I been doing these two days? Si Muqing asked herself in her mind, thinking of her efforts these days.

"Na'er, let's go!" Si Muqing kept smiling.

Si Muqing and Gu Yuena held hands and quickly headed to the location of the next thousand-year soul beast.

"Na'er, would you like to accompany me to Xingluo if you have time?" Si Muqing made a request to Gu Yuena on the way.

"Okay! What are you going to do?"

"Keep it secret." Si Muqing said two words in a good mood.

Gu Yuena snorted softly: "I don't know anything about you, and you still want to keep it a secret from me."

"You'll know if you go, it's a custom for me."

Si Muqing's eyes showed nostalgia and her tone was soothing.

Gu Yuena felt the sadness and loneliness emanating from Si Muqing, and held her interlocked hands tightly.

"Here we are, right here."

"Try to use spiritual communication instead of always using violence." Gu Yuena pointed at the golden lion with metallic luster in front of her.

Si Muqing stepped forward slowly without drawing the Shepherd's Star Sword, telling the Golden Lion that he had no ill intentions, and connected with the Golden Lion through spiritual communication.

Gu Yuena watched Si Muqing trying his best to communicate with Jin Shi, and her thin lips curved into a spring-breathing smile.

Si Muqing looked at the golden lion who couldn't explain anything, and even bared his teeth to express a threat.

Si Muqing drew out the Shepherd Star Sword and slashed with the sword energy, leaving straight sword marks on the side of the golden lion, a strong threat in the spiritual communication.

How could a thousand-year-old soul beast have so much trouble? Si Muqing looked at the lion fiercely.

Si Muqing quickly rode the golden lion to Gu Yuena.

"What are you laughing at?" Si Muqing looked at Gu Yuena in an evil manner.

"Laughing. You can't get rid of using force in the end." Gu Yuena touched the golden lion's head.

“Words backed by force are the most powerful.”

"That's true." Gu Yuena was positive about Si Muqing's words.

"I'm kind of looking forward to the scene when you and my subordinates actually meet."

"Next, let's find another soul beast!"

"Na'er, come up here. Let's ride on this lion." Si Muqing patted the lion's head with his right hand, and the lion let out an aggrieved cry.
