The Journey of Immortal Cultivation-Chapter 413 - 244: Victory_2

She walked all the way to the carriage and stopped to say, "Aren’t your injuries healed yet?"

Stretched out comfortably, Miluo yawned and said, "Healed about ninety-nine percent."

Injuries healed yet pretending to be this weak, are you trying to trick a ghost? She peered into the carriage.

Huh? The carriage doesn’t look big, but it’s surprisingly spacious inside, with luxurious interior decorations: crystal lamps above, brocade mouse skin underfoot, and the low table that Miluo was leaning on was made of Golden Phoebe wood. Inside the carriage there was also an ice chest, an incense burner, a musical instrument rack, and a go board; she even saw an antique shelf that took up the most space and had no doubt that the items on it were worth a fortune.

"Riding in this carriage is quite comfortable. Want to come up and try?" Miluo patted the empty space beside him, invitingly.

She rolled her eyes, naturally not going to go up: "Is this carriage yours?"

He shook his head vigorously: "Of course not. Would my carriage be this rudimentary?"

Then it must be Jin Manyi’s. Very good, very good.

"After crossing the Ruoshui River, you won’t need it anymore, right?" As beautiful as the carriage was, its weight was astonishing, and it wouldn’t possibly press down on the bamboo valve.

"I suppose so." What is this girl trying to do? He was dying of curiosity.

Ning Xiaoxian let out a he-he and silently revealed the Tusk in her hand, the sickle-shaped sharp blade flickering with faint red light.

"How bold!" As she took out this pair of magic artifacts, a fierce shout erupted from behind the carriage! A black-clothed man emerged from nowhere, standing right by her side, staring at her fiercely, his eyes full of murderous intent.

"A Void Refining Stage expert?" Ning Xiaoxian wasn’t frightened, Changtian had already informed her that there were experts hiding by Miluo’s side. She looked at the man and said in amazement, "Mr. Miluo really is surrounded by experts. Such a master-level character is also your bodyguard?"

Miluo could sense a trace of mocking in her tone. She was ridiculing him for being overly cautious and keeping experts hidden by his side after getting hurt once.

"Uncle Xu, she means no harm, please stand down." He spoke to the cultivator, and then gently sighed: "I have to be cautious. After the assassination attempt on the Northern battlefield, I had to flee south. Almost all the Divinity Transformation and Void Refining Stage experts who were with me died, and even the protector at the Mahayana Realm was seriously injured, just for the sake of preserving my life. How dare I not be cautious?" He spoke lightly, but conveyed the dangers in a few brief words. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Changing the subject, he said: "Speaking of which, Miss Ning, what is your intention with that dagger?" He transmitted a private message, "If you can’t solve the puzzle of the Ruoshui River, don’t worry about it; I’ve taken the liberty of annulling the wager."

He was actually returning a favor to her.

What right did he have to annul the wager between Jin Manyi and her? Ning Xiaoxian didn’t reply, turned around, and gave Jin Manyi, who had come out upon hearing the shout, a smile, then swung the Tusk. With two crisp sounds, the carriage door, inlaid with gold and jade, carved with dragons and phoenixes, comparable to the size of a commoner’s outer door, toppled down like a mountain of gold or a column of jade falling over, then smashed heavily onto the ground!

With a loud "bang," the door thudded to the ground, kicking up clouds of dust.

Including Quan Shifang, who was sitting to one side, and Miluo inside the carriage, everyone was dumbfounded. Ning Xiaoxian seized the opportunity to bend down for a quick inspection and said with satisfaction: "Superb quality, no fractures. Very good, very good!"

It finally dawned on Jin Manyi, who shrieked in rage: "Are you insane!" She untied the buckle at her waist, flicking it out with a shake of her hand, carrying the sound of wind and thunder, revealing that it was a precious whip.

Ning Xiaoxian didn’t move. Instead, she threw the Tusk backhand. The short dagger brought a streak of faint red light, cutting through the whirling whip shadows, and struck the tip of the whip as if nailing a snake’s head. The whip in Jin Manyi’s hand instantly went limp.

The ease in her movements, coupled with the on-point precision, earned an impressed shout of "Nice!" from the cultivators present.

Now possessing Divine Skills and mainly specializing in Body Cultivation, her skills were honed to perfection. Jin Manyi was just at the Golden Core Middle Stage after all, easy for her to deal with.

Facing Miss Jin’s angry expression, Ning Xiaoxian calmly said: "Miss Jin, as I said earlier, some tests need to be conducted."

Caught off guard, then indignant, Jin Manyi snapped: "What kind of test, ripping the door off my carriage is also part of your test?"

"Exactly." She confidently stated, "Your door panel, weighing at least eighteen hundred pounds, is perfect for the test."

Jin Manyi seemed to think of something, her expression changed, but before she could speak, Ning Xiaoxian ignored her, picked up the door from the ground, and walked toward the river.

A delicate woman handling a door panel taller than a person with such ease presented an oddly harmonious scene. She didn’t dawdle and tossed the door panel into the Ruoshui River. The heavy panel drifted into the water slowly, hardly splashing at all, almost as if pausing mid-air for an instant. This display of effortless strength silently impressed those who knew the difference.

Then a marvelous scene unfolded. The door panel, weighing over a thousand pounds, floated lightly on the water’s surface!

The cultivators watching collectively gasped in surprise, and their eyes unanimously turned toward the young lady on the bank.

At this point, it was clear to everyone that in this bet, Ning Xiaoxian had won!

This young lady had quietly acquired the Ruoshui Ferry, a gold-laying hen so to speak. Curious cultivators shouted, hoping to learn her secret, "Miss, in exchange for a Spirit Stone, could you share with us the secret behind it?"
