94: Chapter 94 Another Way, Wan Qing's Talent

The coldness surged slightly within her body, causing Zhu Yueer to tremble slightly.

"That heavenly soul fruit tree was a trap set by others. You were knocked unconscious, and after that, I dealt with those guys..."

"It's getting late, and the Falling Star Mountain Range is too dangerous, so I brought you here to rest..."

Zhou Bai spoke slowly, telling Zhu Yueer what had happened by the heavenly soul fruit tree.

"So, so that's how it was..."

Hearing Zhou Bai's words, a deep chill suddenly welled up in Zhu Yueer's heart.

No wonder she had discovered such a precious treasure; it turned out there was a trap.

At the same time, she felt a wave of relief.

Fortunately, she had come with Zhou Bai. If she had come with anyone else to collect it, she would likely have become nourishment for the heavenly soul fruit tree by now.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yueer threw herself directly into Zhou Bai's arms, greedily feeling the warmth from his body.

"These heavenly soul fruits are for you!"

Zhou Bai took out a dozen or so heavenly soul fruits from his space ring and handed them to Zhu Yueer.

"God Bai, I only led the way, and you even saved my life. I can't take them!"

Zhu Yueer snuggled in Zhou Bai's arms and hurriedly shook her head.

"Take them, this is what you deserve!"

Zhou Bai said softly to Zhu Yueer.

Although this trip was very dangerous, the harvest was also extremely huge. Not only did he obtain a large number of heavenly soul fruits,

But he also gained a deluxe gift pack...

"Tha... thank you, God Bai..."

Seeing Zhou Bai's sincere gaze, Zhu Yueer didn't refuse anymore and accepted the heavenly soul fruits.

"God Bai, I... I'm so cold... I don't know why..."

Before long, Zhu Yueer felt her body getting colder and colder, as if an inexplicable chill was flowing within her.

"Cold?"

Zhou Bai raised an eyebrow.

The temperature in the Falling Star Mountain Range at night was indeed quite low, but Zhu Yueer was a Fourth-Rank Martial Artist, so she should...

Could it be that guy's Bewildering Phantom Fragrance from before...

Zhou Bai quickly grabbed Zhu Yueer's hand and used his spiritual power to probe her body. Sure enough, he saw a faint cold current surging inside her.

"Don't resist. I'll use my Qi and Blood Power to go in and help you dispel that energy!"

Zhou Bai continued to Zhu Yueer.

"God Bai, let's use another method!"

At this moment, Zhu Yueer seemed to have thought of something. She bit her red lips and said to Zhou Bai.

"Another method?"

Zhou Bai was slightly stunned. Could it be that Zhu Yueer also knew a healing technique?

Zhu Yueer's eyes became somewhat hazy as she stared straight at Zhou Bai.

Seeing Zhu Yueer's gaze, Zhou Bai narrowed his eyes slightly. He naturally sensed the tenderness in her eyes and asked, "Are you sure?"

"God Bai, I'm sure. I've thought it through clearly!"

Zhu Yueer said to Zhou Bai with absolute determination.

Hearing Zhu Yueer's words, Zhou Bai nodded.

"I see. Then come on..."

...

Meanwhile, at the entrance of the Falling Star Mountain Range.

A checkpoint had been added at the entrance of the mountain range.

A group of powerful martial artists dressed in black clothing was conducting inspections and registrations at the entrance.

All martial artists leaving the Falling Star Mountain Range were being questioned one by one.

"How dare you! I am a Prodigy Cadet of Qingcheng University. What do you mean by questioning me here?"

A young prodigy martial artist said coldly, his face full of displeasure.

"Humph, a prodigy from Qingcheng University? So what? Even if you're a Prodigy Cadet from the Top Ten, you still have to obediently undergo questioning here!"

A Sixth-Rank Martial Artist from the Li family said coldly, his voice surging through the entire entrance like a tide.

"I'm telling you, a young master of our Li family died in the Falling Star Mountain Range. Our Li family must get to the bottom of this matter!"

Another Seventh-Rank Golden Body Realm martial artist nearby also spoke up, his fierce gaze scanning the surroundings.

"So it's the Li family. No wonder they're so overbearing..."

"Damn it, so what if they're from the Li family? It's the law of the jungle in the Falling Star Mountain Range. If their own people aren't strong enough and get killed, isn't that normal?"

"Exactly, what are they putting on airs for? These top families are really too much, completely disregarding the rules..."

After the Li family martial artist finished speaking, the surrounding martial artists began to speak up one after another.

The Li family is a top Martial Saint Family in Nanhai City, with extremely vast influence.

Because Nanhai City is at the southernmost tip of Xia Country, adjacent to the ocean, it is also a prosperous trade city. Its importance is not inferior to the Imperial Capital, Demon City, or Deep City.

Although Xia Country has sound laws, places like the Falling Star Mountain Range, where fierce beasts dwell, are not protected by law.

Being killed in such a place means one's skills were inferior; one cannot blame anyone else.

The Li family's large-scale inspection this time is completely against the rules.

However, the Li family's power is so great that although many martial artists have strong objections in their hearts, they don't dare to resist.

They can only obediently wait for the inspection...

...

The next day, afternoon.

In the hidden cave, Zhu Yueer lay on a blanket, her whole body feeling as if it were falling apart.

On the pure white blanket, there was a delicate red plum blossom.

The rest of the cave was also a mess, and a mysterious aura filled the air.

"This time, taking in Zhu Yueer didn't reward a talent upgrade card. Instead, like with Shiyu, it rewarded 100 points and 3 skill upgrade cards..."

On the other side of the cave, Zhou Bai sighed softly.

"Could it be that the rewards don't just depend on looks, but talent is also an important consideration?"

Zhou Bai murmured to himself.

Zhao Shiyu has an A-rank talent, and Zhu Yueer also has an A-rank talent, so the rewards were both 100 learning points and three skill upgrade cards.

While Shen Ninger has an S-rank Talent, rewarding 1,000 learning points, one talent upgrade card, and 100 energy fruits.

Aunt Qing's rewards were the same as Shen Ninger's...

"I'll know once I ask Aunt Qing what her talent is!"

Zhou Bai took out his phone and immediately asked about Su Wanqing's talent.

[A Bai, my talent is the S-rank support talent, Light Spirit Surge!]

Before long, Su Wanqing's reply came back.

"Sure enough, the partner rewards are related to the partner's talent level. However, the boost is still the same, providing me with a double increase in learning efficiency..."
