Hearing Lin Yibai's answer, the system readily helped her exchange for more poisonous fog.
"Dear host, your current points are -200. Please keep up the good work! Additionally, this system will give you an extra antidote pill to extend the time you can hide in the poisonous fog. I wish you a successful completion of the mission!"
Lin Yibai looked at the pill that appeared in her hand and swallowed it without hesitation.
But just as the pill slid down her throat, a sharp sword qi, accompanied by several explosion talismans, cut through the thick fog and rushed straight towards Lin Yibai.
Lin Yibai widened her eyes and quickly crushed the teleportation talisman on her waist.
Her figure instantly disappeared from the spot and returned to her room on Nianbai Peak.
The pill got stuck in Lin Yibai's throat, causing her to feel a series of suffocating sensations.
Sensing Lin Yibai's spiritual power fluctuations, Immortal Heng Ling instantly appeared outside Lin Yibai's room.
With the joy of having found what was lost, he raised his hand and trembled as he wanted to push open the door.
But he froze in place and didn't dare to move for a long time. He was afraid that after opening the door, he would still see Lin Yibai lying on the bed with a pale face, which made his heart ache as if being slowly cut into pieces.
Over the years, he thought he had hidden his unspoken feelings for Lin Yibai very well.
After Shen Qing came to the sect, in order to consume his feelings for Lin Yibai, he doted on and showed favoritism to Shen Qing.
But it was these actions that caused Lin Yibai to suffer great harm from Shen Qing.
When he saw that Shen Qing had seriously injured and put Lin Yibai into a coma, he regretted his actions every moment.
Even, he even thought that if Lin Yibai never woke up, he would torture Shen Qing to avenge Lin Yibai!
Immortal Heng Ling took a deep breath and slowly pushed open the door.
Finally, he saw the person he had been longing for sitting on the bed, covering her chest and gasping slightly, with a hint of blush on her face?
"Xiaobai, you're finally awake!"
Lin Yibai forced out a rather awkward smile and replied hoarsely, "Master, I've made you worry."
Then, she pinched the soft flesh on the inside of her thigh hard, and her eyes instantly welled up with tears.
"Master, I'm so scared..."
Seeing Lin Yibai shed tears, Immortal Heng Ling didn't care about anything else. He quickly stepped forward and hugged Lin Yibai in his arms, comforting her gently.
Where Immortal Heng Ling couldn't see, a hint of haze flashed in Lin Yibai's eyes.
She had finally managed to swallow the pill and was going to go back to bed and continue pretending to be in a coma. Who would have thought that Immortal Heng Ling would appear so quickly.
And there were also Li Xian and Shen Qing. She had actually been tricked by these two people!
Lin Yibai tightly clenched the quilt with both fists and secretly swore in her heart.
Next time, she would never let these two people escape so easily!
After Lin Yibai disappeared from the dense forest, the poisonous fog quickly dissipated. Shen Qing and Li Xian walked to the place where Lin Yibai had disappeared and fell into deep thought.
They knew that if they wanted to break the deadlock, they couldn't follow the arrangements of the person holding the chess pieces.
So they took a gamble to see if they could force out the person behind the scenes.
Fortunately, they were lucky.
Lin Yibai couldn't hold her temper and showed up from her hiding place.
And Lin Yibai thought her plan was flawless and didn't disguise herself at all, so her appearance was clearly seen by Shen Qing and Li Xian.
Li Xian looked at Shen Qing. "Was your senior sister coming for my life?"
Shen Qing looked into Li Xian's puzzled eyes and didn't know how to explain.
She even wanted to just tell everything and reveal that Lin Yibai had a system and was trying to seize the luck, but she failed after several attempts.
But as long as she didn't say these things, she was fine.
So, Shen Qing rolled her eyes and decided to tell Li Xian a white lie.
"Brother Li, you may not know that my senior sister Lin Yibai has had feelings for you for a long time. This time she plotted against us just because she was jealous that I talked to you a few more times. In the future, it's better for you to stay away from my senior sister when you see her."
"This matter concerns our reputations. I hope Brother Li won't tell others."
Now wasn't a good time to confront Lin Yibai directly, so it was better to hide the truth for now and talk about it later.
Shen Qing recalled for a moment and found that the excuse she had given was flawless. She nodded in satisfaction.
But when she met Li Xian's skeptical eyes, Shen Qing felt a bit discouraged.
Didn't he believe her?
Then she had no other way.
Li Xian finally didn't say anything because the disciples of the Five - Element Dao Sect came over after seeing the thick fog disperse.
The two rescued disciples were crying uncontrollably. They were almost kneeling in front of Li Xian and kowtowing to him.
"Senior brother, it's so good that you're okay. Otherwise, we would have felt so guilty. Wuwuwu."
"Senior brother! You're so kind. I promise to practice hard when I get back and won't hold you back anymore!"
Xiao Jinglan also looked at Li Xian with a look of fear, but there was more trust in his eyes.
He knew that his senior brother was omnipotent. Such thick fog was nothing to his senior brother.
Shen Chuyun was the last one to come. When he saw Shen Qing, he immediately started scolding.
"Shen Qing, you're a disaster. If it weren't for you insisting on walking, we wouldn't have almost died in this thick fog!!"
"If it weren't for Master's repeated orders for me to watch over you, I really would have let you die outside and never come back!!"
Shen Qing remained silent in the face of Shen Chuyun's scolding.
But it wasn't because she was scared. She just thought that Shen Chuyun looked like a jumping macaque now.
"Divine gold."
"What did you say?!"
Shen Qing turned her head and ignored Shen Chuyun's shouting.
"Brother Li, I can walk the rest of the way by myself. There are also injured disciples in your Five - Element Dao Sect. It's better for you to return to the sect earlier."
Li Xian looked at the injured disciples and nodded.
"Fellow Daoist Shen, I wish you a safe journey. Farewell."
Xiao Jinglan summoned his natal sword and winked at Shen Qing. "Fellow Daoist Shen, see you next time."
The disciples of the Five - Element Dao Sect followed Li Xian and left the dense forest on their swords.
And Shen Qing walked along another path towards the outside of the dense forest.
She hadn't forgotten that there were still traps set by Lin Yibai ahead.
Shen Chuyun followed Shen Qing with a gloomy face. The two walked one in front and the other behind.
Suddenly, Shen Qing felt a bit regretful. She should have dragged Shen Chuyun down just now so that she could see Lin Yibai's ugly face scolding in the thick fog.
By then, let's see if he could still say that Junior Sister Xiaobai was as pure as a jasmine flower.
"Little disciple, walk a bit further. There's a fire - repelling grass growing under those big chrysanthemum leaves. Go and pick it. Then we can sell it at the medicine store in the city."
Fire - repelling grass?
A fire - repelling grass worth two high - grade spirit stones?!
Shen Qing's eyes lit up. She walked towards the broad yellow leaves on the right according to Ling Zhou's instructions.
Seeing that Shen Qing wasn't focusing on hurrying but was rummaging in the soil, Shen Chuyun's anger flared up.
He took out his sword impatiently and cut down those annoying yellow leaves. The sticky juice splashed onto Shen Chuyun's skin.
Shen Qing noticed Shen Chuyun's actions. A hint of mockery flashed in her eyes, but she didn't stop him.
