507: brave troops
Wu Tian was already considering whether he should leave; staying here seemed to be the greater danger.
He even suspected that these two guys were intentionally messing with him.
But that shouldn't be the case.
He had always kept a low profile and didn't have any enemies; even Huaxia... wouldn't target him, right?
Although he had wanted to rescue his younger sister, he hadn't succeeded, had he?
They shouldn't know about his plans either.
But looking back, he had indeed been quite unlucky lately.
Because of Huaxia, the Wu Family's resources were no longer available to him, and Huaxia wouldn't provide him with resources to rescue his sister either, leaving him severely injured.
Afterward, he ran into two cowards.
Now, the two in front of him looked like fools, burying him alive at the drop of a hat.
Wu Tian sighed; this period had been absolutely miserable.
Even if he left, he reckoned he would still run into bad Luck.
In the end, looking at the father and daughter, he said helplessly: "I'm fine. You don't need to worry about me; I'll just stay here for a while."
"No need to worry? But your injuries..."
"As long as you don't bother me, I'll recover very quickly!" Wu Tian interrupted.
After hesitating for a moment, the middle-aged man nodded reluctantly and said: "Alright then."
Hearing the middle-aged man agree, Wu Tian's tense nerves finally relaxed. A wave of dizziness hit him, and he passed out again.
Looking at the unconscious Wu Tian, the father and daughter exchanged glances, and the woman asked: "Father, are we really not going to do anything about him?"
"What can we do?"
"Bury him?"
"Forget it, if we bury him again, we'll actually bury him to death." The middle-aged man rolled his eyes.
He walked over to Wu Tian, kicked him a few times to push his body to the side, and muttered: "He's crushing the vegetables."
After tidying up the vegetable garden, the middle-aged man clapped his hands in satisfaction. He turned around, ready to say something, but his expression suddenly stiffened.
Seeing his expression, the woman was slightly stunned: "What's wrong?"
"Be... behind you..." The middle-aged man raised his hand, pointing behind the woman, his voice trembling slightly.
The woman was startled and whipped her head around. She saw a man and a woman standing behind her. Seeing her turn, the man smiled slightly, nodded, and greeted her: "Hello."
"Uh..." The woman swallowed, staring straight at Qin Jiang, her pretty face blushing slightly: "H... hello~"
What a handsome man!
Qin Jiang smiled broadly and cast a smug look at An Xihe beside him.
It only takes one greeting to charm a beauty.
Seeing his expression, An Xihe curled her lips, thinking that this stat monster really believed his own skills were that good.
If it were anyone else, she probably wouldn't have even bothered to respond.
At this moment, Qin Jiang took two steps forward, walked to the woman's side, and said with a brilliant smile: "Beautiful lady, can you tell me your name?"
"My name is Yun Bao~"
"Yun Bao? Bao Bao, what a great name." Qin Jiang exclaimed in admiration.
Yun Bao's pretty face flushed, and her little heart pounded; he called me Bao Bao!
Behind her, the middle-aged man's face had already darkened.
However, he didn't dare to say anything. He felt an immense sense of oppression coming from that woman.
It seemed as if a single look from her could destroy him. Even a True Immortal wouldn't have such an oppressive aura; in the entire Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, there was only one person... that Immortal King!
He stole a glance at An Xihe, then at Qin Jiang. Having guessed their identities, he couldn't help but inwardly groan.
How did he end up attracting these two here?
Although he had always been in hiding, he still had some understanding of the situation in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. These two could be said to be the Dominators of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
If they had any ideas, he and his daughter would be in grave danger.
The middle-aged man lowered his head, trying hard to restrain his Qi and minimize his presence as much as possible.
However, his daughter seemed to be charmed.
The middle-aged man was anxious; if his guess was correct, this guy also had the title of a lecher, and his daughter's appearance was impeccable.
He didn't want his daughter to have any contact with anyone. The Human Race was too dangerous. They were heartless, profit-seeking, and their hearts were completely black!
"Bao Bao, I want to give you a gift; I'm sure you'll like it."
"A gift?"
"Mhm." Qin Jiang smiled.
He flipped his palm, and a radiant, shimmering treasure orb appeared in Qin Jiang's hand. Handing it to Yun Bao, Qin Jiang smiled and asked: "Do you like it?"
"Wow!!!" Yun Bao's beautiful eyes lit up. She actually lunged forward, grabbed the treasure orb, and swallowed it in one gulp.
But the next moment, her pretty face stiffened. She looked up at Qin Jiang, her beautiful eyes revealing a trace of panic. Oh no! Had her identity been exposed?
"I..." She opened her small mouth, wanting to explain, but she didn't know what to say.
Qin Jiang smiled, raised his hand, ruffled her hair, and asked with a smile: "Is it tasty?"
"T... tasty~" Yun Bao nodded blankly.
Qin Jiang flipped his palm again, and another treasure orb appeared in front of Yun Bao. However, Yun Bao didn't dare to eat it this time.
She turned to look at her father. At this moment, the middle-aged man's face was slightly pale; he felt that their identities as father and daughter had likely already been discovered by the other party.
"Eat it. Don't worry, I won't do anything to you." Qin Jiang spoke again.
He directly held the orb and brought it to Yun Bao's lips. She subconsciously opened her mouth and swallowed the treasure orb.
Afterward, Qin Jiang also tossed a few treasures to the middle-aged man. They were just some miscellaneous items.
"You..." The middle-aged man looked at Qin Jiang and couldn't help asking: "You know our identities?"
"Aren't you just Pixiu?" Qin Jiang smiled: "Pixiu are natural Auspicious Beasts that come with Luck. They can attract wealth and treasures, and at the same time, they love to swallow treasures to Cultivate themselves."
"It is precisely because of this that a Pixiu itself is hard to extract value from; it might even bankrupt a Sect. But if you use the remains of a Pixiu to make a Treasure Artifact... hehe, then it will only attract wealth and treasures."
As his voice fell, the faces of the middle-aged man and Yun Bao both turned slightly pale. A trace of fear appeared in their eyes.
Qin Jiang's gaze shifted from Yun Bao to the middle-aged man, and at this moment... the middle-aged man gritted his teeth, stepped forward, and said: "If you want to make a Treasure Artifact, use my remains! My cultivation is stronger than Yun Bao's, so the Treasure Artifact's effect will be better. I only ask that you don't make things difficult for Yun Bao!"
"Father..." Yun Bao's voice trembled. She looked at Qin Jiang, her beautiful eyes filled with pleading: "Please don't kill us. We can find treasures for you. We can just eat a tiny, tiny bit, or... we can even not eat at all."
