Chapter 862: Chapter 862 Lin An

"Who?"

The woman in black heard the noise and shouted in alarm.

"It’s me."

Su Chengyu walked into the depths of the cave, looking somewhat pale. Seeing this, the woman in black said, "You’re hurt?"

Su Chengyu nodded, about to speak, when suddenly a mouthful of blood surged up and he spat it onto the ground.

"How are you?" The woman in black hurried over, reaching out to help Su Chengyu but hesitated, deeming it inappropriate given her status, and withdrew her hand.

Su Chengyu noticed her gesture and said slowly, "It’s alright, I need to heal my injuries."

Sitting cross-legged immediately, Su Chengyu began to circulate his spell. The woman in black also sat down quietly nearby, unable to assist with her divine sense sealed by the Qingming Sealing Technique, she could only sit in silence.

Hours passed, with nightfall, the cave was lit by flickering flames, and a chill swept in, leaving a thin layer of white frost on the surrounding stone walls.

The climate in the South District was such, with drastic temperature changes from day to night, but to those who practiced cultivation, temperature changes were inconsequential, unaffected by heat or cold.

The woman in black looked at Su Chengyu not far away. This was the first time she had spent such a long time with a strange man, and under such circumstances. One would think she’d feel extremely uneasy, but on the contrary, she felt a sense of comfort.

The men around her either obeyed her every command or fawned over her. None had ever treated her like Su Chengyu did, both saving her life and reprimanding her sternly, and then drawing off the pursuit of the Sky Feather Clan at great risk to himself.

"This guy, when he scolds someone, he really doesn’t hold back at all."

Thinking back to being rebuked by Su Chengyu, the woman in black felt a bit resentful and pouted slightly, like a miffed little girl.

Just then, Su Chengyu opened his eyes, and their gazes met, catching the woman in black off guard. Her face flushed, she quickly lowered her head, thinking to herself: How embarrassing!

"It must be dark outside now, isn’t it?" Su Chengyu said indifferently.

"It should... it should be, there’s frost on these stone walls," the woman in black said.

"My injury is healed, and yours should be too. Why haven’t you left?"

Seeing the woman in black sitting opposite him, Su Chengyu was also somewhat surprised. Her injuries should have healed as well, and with her strength, she didn’t need to worry about being pursued by the Sky Feather Clan anymore. She surely wouldn’t continue to hide in this cave.

"I..."

"Worried about me? Guarding me while I recover? I’m fine now, and I wouldn’t dare to trouble someone of your status to guard me. You should go."

"It’s not that... you’re so annoying."

The woman in black felt a surge of annoyance, wondering if she was truly so detestable to him.

Su Chengyu got up and shrugged, "Well, I’ll be going then. Farewell."

"You, stop right there."

The woman in black stood up, her face full of rage.

"What’s the matter?" asked Su Chengyu.

"I’ve been cursed by the Qingming Demon Tree’s sealing magic, sealing away all my mana and Divine Sense. Can you help me lift the seal?"

The woman in black had originally intended to command Su Chengyu, but as the words reached her mouth, she suddenly remembered how Su Chengyu had retorted earlier and instead asked for help in a pleading tone.

"So that’s the case. No wonder you haven’t left this place. I can help you lift the seal, but you have to agree to do something for me," said Su Chengyu.

"As long as it’s within my power, I will agree to it," the woman in black said without hesitation.

"I need Qingming Spiritual Leaves. If you go to Air Mulberry Valley again and get what you want, could you also get me some Qingming Spiritual Leaves?"

"You want to refine a Dragon Spirit Pill, right?" the woman in black asked.

Su Chengyu nodded, and the woman in black said, "There’s no need for such trouble. I have Creation Pills in my Storage Ring that are even better than Dragon Spirit Pills. I’ll give you ten Creation Pills as a payback for saving my life, and after that, we’ll be even."

Hearing this, although Su Chengyu appeared calm, he couldn’t help but feel inwardly exclaim, "Damn, that’s extravagant. Creation Pills are extremely top-tier elixirs and quite precious. This woman in black is offering ten Creation Pills just like that. Even Yang Junmo, the son of the Demon Slayer Department Head, probably isn’t this extravagant."

He couldn’t help but begin to speculate about the identity of this woman in black, who carried so many Creation Pills, it was simply outrageous!

You see, those kinds of pills that can directly boost one’s realm are much more difficult to refine than other elixirs. Creation Pills aren’t Divine Pills, but their value far exceeds that of Divine Pills, and they are even harder to refine. Moreover, the ingredients needed to make Creation Pills are too precious; many of them are nearly extinct. Even Qingcheng Mountain, one of the Four Holy Lands of Taoism, can’t produce ten Creation Pills!

No wonder this woman in black looks to be in her twenties yet has a Golden Core Peak Realm.

"You... you’re not joking, are you? Ten Creation Pills?" Su Chengyu asked skeptically, wondering if she was bluffing or giving him false hopes.

"I always mean what I say, and I will fulfill my promises. You can be assured I won’t deceive you. Compared to my life, ten Creation Pills really aren’t much. However, I don’t have ten on me right now. I can only give you three first, and I’ll give you the rest once we’re out of the Kunwu Realm," the woman in black said.

Su Chengyu controlled his inner ecstasy and excitement. He had saved the woman in black purely out of goodwill, not expecting such a generous reward. If he’d known earlier, he wouldn’t have been so rude to her. At that moment, he really wanted to say, "I’m sorry, I was out of line just now, I spoke too loudly."

"Then, thank you very much. I would like to know your name and which major power you hail from to be so bold," Su Chengyu couldn’t resist inquiring about the identity of the woman in black.

Although Su Chengyu tried hard to control his excitement, the woman in black was not foolish. She certainly knew the value of ten Creation Pills and could see the gleam in Su Chengyu’s eyes. She felt a touch of smug satisfaction and thought to herself that being bold is indeed the ultimate power!

"My name is... Lin An. ’Lin’ as in a pair of woods, and ’An’ as in peace. As for my background, you don’t need to know," the woman in black said.

"Right, and what’s your name, and which sect are you from?"

"I am Su Chengyu, a disciple of Master Cangqing from Mount Qingcheng."

"You are a Qingcheng Mountain Disciple? Among the Four Holy Lands of Taoism, Qingcheng Mountain has the smallest fame and weakest strength. It seems there haven’t been any notable young disciples from there," Lin An said bluntly.

Su Chengyu didn’t offer any rebuttal, as what Lin An had said was factual. Compared to Mount Longhu, Zhongnan Mountain, and Wudang Mountain, Qingcheng Mountain was indeed quite a bit weaker, especially among the younger generation of disciples who had not made any significant name for themselves.
