Chapter 294: 145~146: The beauty reluctantly holds back her feelings, and dreams of the distant returning journey from Nanxun (Combined into one 8k big chapter)_5 Chapter 294: 145~146: The beauty reluctantly holds back her feelings, and dreams of the distant returning journey from Nanxun (Combined into one 8k big chapter)_5 After He Yingyu finished speaking, she didn’t give Chen Dengming a chance to respond and leaped away.
Chen Dengming opened his mouth and extended his hand, before sheepishly withdrawing it.
He had wanted to say, since they weren’t discussing matters of the heart, could they discuss his trip to Nanxun to be her protector.
But before he could speak, He Yingyu scampered away like a rabbit.
This…
he hadn’t even had a chance to feel awkward yet.
He had planned to comfort his senior sister, who rarely showed her feelings, with understanding from his own past experience.
...
But she ran away immediately.
This senior sister, although she indeed seemed to have no experience in love, insisted on pretending to be mature.
“Hehehe, Daoist friend Chen?
You’re back?
How’s it that you managed to upset our esteemed Master He and make her run away?”
At this moment, an inappropriately timed voice came from the entrance of a nearby cave dwelling.
Chen Dengming turned to see it was Guan Le, who was gleefully taking pleasure in his misfortune.
He frowned, then smiled, “That’s not true.
Why would Sister He be angry with me?”
Guan Le snorted, crossing his arms with satisfaction, saying, “How long have you known Master He?

I know her better than you do.
Judging by her just now, it’s clear that something you said has upset her.
Tsk! tsk tsk…”
Chen Dengming remained silent.
He hadn’t even gotten a chance to say a single word.
Guan Le was evidently green with envy and had been secretly watching from the sidelines.
Chen Dengming’s eyes flashed with psychic energy as he shot a psychic attack directly at him.
“Ah—”
A scream echoed.
Guan Le was caught off guard.
He almost toppled headfirst down from the tall cliff of his cave dwelling into the mountain spring.
Managing to regain his balance, he held his head in confusion as he watched the departing figure of Chen Dengming, his hissing in pain.
His eyes welled up with tears as he protested, “This Old Chen, just because his power’s stronger now, he’s jealous of my good relationship with Master He and doesn’t even allow me to speak the truth?”
“Hiss…
Ah, the circumstances forced me to give in.
Now that Old Chen has reached the late-stage of Foundation Establishment, I can’t joke around like I used to.
I should be more careful…
my strength, my damn strength, why won’t it budge?”
Guan Le sighed heavily, rubbing his forehead as he retreated into his cave dwelling.
…
Liang Yunsheng indeed handled things quickly.
In less than five days, he had reached a preliminary agreement with three sects including the Escaping World Sect through the sect’s message system.
Naturally, these three sects dare not disrespect.
Mainly because they had heard that Han Yongxu of the Miaoyin Sect was disciplined by the two ancestors of the Longevity Sect five days ago.
The words by the two ancestors of the Longevity Sect had already spread out.
Chen Dengming is now with the Longevity Sect and, furthermore, he is the Longevity Seed.
What this means is beyond doubt.
Even if the three sects were upset in private, the Longevity Sect just plucked the peach so easily.
Now, Chen Dengming, the peach, is on their branch.
If they dare to make it difficult or reach out, even without seeing the shadow of the Dao Orthodoxy, they would have to consider moving their sect out of the Eastern Region.
Hence, the three sects can only pretend not to know Chen Dengming and treat him as a Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Changchun Sect.
If this fellow Daoist wants to visit his hometown and borrow their Teleportation Formation, of course, they are generous with it without hesitation.
Chen Dengming was delighted when he received the news from Liang Yunsheng.
He suddenly felt an exciting anticipation of returning home.
“Brother Chen, congratulations.
Now you can return home with honor.”
In the Gu Refining Place, Jiang Qiang congratulated him with a smile upon hearing the news.
Chen Dengming took a deep breath, put away the Jade Talisman, patted Jiang Qiang’s shoulder, and said with bright eyes, “Qiangzi, I’ll have to trouble you again this time.”
Jiang Qiang was taken aback, then immediately said earnestly and movingly, “Brother Chen, why are you being so polite?
I owe you an uncountable number of lives.
Not just in this life, I couldn’t pay you back in my next life either.”
“Who cares if my cultivation level would disappear in the Cursed Land?
If my cultivation level disappears, it disappears!
If I can scout the road for you, that’s mean I can serve!”
Chen Dengming gave a hearty laugh and said, “It’s not that serious.
The several Qi Cultivators who took me there last time went over there.
They’ve been there for about a week, but their cultivation levels have not dropped.”
“That’s even less to worry about.
Once I enter, the first thing I’ll do is to clear all risks for you, Brother Chen.”
“Great!” Chen Dengming nodded appreciatively and then turned his gaze to the Gu Pit at the front.
He beckoned.
‘Buzz buzz—’
A large number of Gu Worms flew over.
Among them, there were as many as thirteen Golden Silkworm Gu and forty to fifty Blood Centipede Gu.
Apart from these regular Gu Worms, there was a King Gu which was the size of a fist and had black and gold patterns all over its body, resembling an aggressive Golden Silkworm.
And there was a Blood Centipede King Gu, as long as a baby’s arm, with a dark green body and a row of lethal needles on a bloody tail.
These two King Gu Worms, having the potential to threaten mid-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivators, were the greatest achievements after the breakthrough of the Gu Refinement Secret to the Grandmaster level.
Chen Dengming put all the regular Gu Worms into a Beast Controlling Bag and tossed it to Qiangzi.
Any of these regular Gu Worms could threaten low-level Qi Cultivators.
In large numbers, Cultivators at levels eight or nine would be put to death.
Chen Dengming planned to let Jiang Qiang take these Gu Worms back to the mortal world.
After being refined through the Blood Refining Method, these Gu Worms would become the hereditary protective Gu of his family.
In the future, if any Qi Cultivators dared to set foot in Nanxun and target the offspring of his family, these Gu Worms would be the nightmares of many Qi Cultivators.
“Let’s go!
Qiangzi, let’s go back to the gathering place once again.
Hahaha!”
“Go!
With Brother Chen, I’m not afraid no matter where we go!”…
