Chapter 237: Chapter 124: Counterattack and Reunion

Shen Xinyue saw Qian Xiaoyue and couldn’t help but show a slight smile, then said, "On the contrary, we were delayed a bit due to the battle blocking our way."

"Fellow Daoist Zhou, I didn’t expect you to be here as well?"

At this moment, a slightly surprised voice came through.

It was Gong Bai Xue, who looked at Zhou Changwang with a face of astonishment, not expecting to encounter him here.

"Fellow Daoist Bai, it’s good to see you’re well."

Zhou Changwang naturally greeted back.

"Do you know this sister?"

Qian Xiaoyue, who was just about to share her journey experiences with Shen Xinyue, immediately became vigilant, stepped up to Zhou Changwang’s side, and looked Gong Bai Xue up and down.

"She is a fellow daoist I met last time during the Spirit Plant Master assessment."

Zhou Changwang explained, and then also greeted ’Aunt Rong’ standing behind Gong Bai Xue.

"And who might this be?"

Gong Bai Xue glanced at Qian Xiaoyue standing beside Zhou Changwang, chuckled lightly, and asked.

"Fellow Daoist Qian, Qian Xiaoyue."

Zhou Changwang said, noticing the two other young cultivators nearby who were observing them.

They were both around twenty years old, yet already had the Sixth-Layer Qi Cultivation.

The two had somewhat arrogant expressions, but seeing Gong Bai Xue actively greeting Zhou Changwang, they showed a hint of surprise.

One of them seemed displeased by Gong Bai Xue’s attitude towards Zhou Changwang, stepped forward, and asked, "This fellow daoist looks unfamiliar, from which cultivation clan in the marketplace are you a descendant?"

"Just a loose cultivator."

Zhou Changwang smiled calmly and said.

"A loose cultivator? I thought you had some abilities, turns out you’re just..."

That person sneered, ready to say more, but seeing Gong Bai Xue’s cold expression, he awkwardly shut his mouth.

"Alright, the journey is long, and we’re all fellow daoists, so let’s not stir up trouble."

At this time, the last young cultivator quickly stepped forward to mediate, saying, "I am Wenren Xiu, an Alchemy Master, well met, Fellow Daoist Zhou.

And this here is my friend Zhao Gongpeng, from the Talisman-Making Family, the Zhao Family. Fellow Daoist Zhao is a leading figure among young Zhao Family descendants and is now a Mid-level First Grade Talisman Master, capable of refining Mid-grade Spirit Talismans."

"Pleasure to meet you!"

Zhou Changwang cupped his hands courteously.

He didn’t intend to engage too much with them.

Alchemy Master, Talisman Maker, so what?

He had no need to seek favors from them.

Because along the way, encountering battles was inevitable, and one must stay vigilant to potential dangers surrounding them. Thus, the cultivators of Shuiyun Pavilion and others planned to rest here for a while.

Zhou Changwang was about to find a corner to continue organizing his gains but saw Shen Xinru not far away gesturing to him, so he walked over.

"Elder Shen!"

Zhou Changwang greeted.

"I’ve already heard from Xiaoyue just now, we owe a lot to you this time; otherwise, Xiaoyue would have been in real danger."

Shen Xinyue looked at Zhou Changwang with relief and said.

"Elder Shen, you’re being polite, I’m a friend of Fellow Daoist Qian, and I met her earlier than you."

Zhou Changwang shook his head and said.

"For some reason, I feel a great affinity for Xiaoyue, treating her as my own younger sister, and inadvertently, I forgot you knew her longer.

However, I didn’t expect you guys encountered a Qi Refining Seventh Level practitioner, and I heard that person was counter-killed by you?"

Shen Xinyue let out a light chuckle, then her expression turned serious, and she curiously asked.

Having heard Qian Xiaoyue recount their journey, she was both worried and amazed.

Especially regarding Zhou Changwang’s capabilities, in her view, it was definitely not something a regular Qi Refining Fourth Level cultivator could accomplish.

Therefore, she specifically called Zhou Changwang over to ask.

"It was only with the help of Spirit Talismans, along with Fellow Daoist Fang and Fellow Daoist Qian assisting me, that we could succeed.

Based on my own skills, I’m not a match for a late-stage Qi Cultivation practitioner."

Zhou Changwang quickly waved his hand and said.
