Chapter 39: Crazy about my junior brother insisting that I like him (39)
On this day, there was suddenly a sound of fighting. Ni Fang quickly pulled Sang Yuan, who had not yet noticed the danger, into the hidden formation that had been prepared in advance.
Sang Yuan opened his eyes wide and said with emotion: "Sister, you are really well prepared."
"It's better to be prepared. The concealment array costs 200 middle-grade spirit stones, and you can return me 100 middle-grade spirit stones afterwards."
Sang Yuan chuckled and agreed.
Because of Sang Yuan's existence, Ni Fang became more and more stingy. How could he not be extremely alert when being with businessmen?
Sang Yuan suddenly came closer and whispered in Ni Fang's ear, "Sister, do you want to go over and take a look? Maybe you can pick up some treasures."
Ni Fang had no interest in such a thing where the risk factor far outweighed the benefits. She just watched from afar as the two monks were fighting fiercely, with mountains collapsing and the situation even showing a tendency to affect where she and the other two were.
Even though he was ready to fight with other monks with swords, Ni Fang still couldn't immediately accept what was happening in front of him.
Sang Yuan had been keeping an eye on Ni Fang. He knew what she was thinking with just one look. "People die for money, and birds die for food. Sister, you are not naive enough to think that the world is full of kind people like you and me, right?"
Ni Fang was no longer surprised by Sang Yuan's behavior of flattering himself from time to time, so he just pulled Sang Yuan's sleeve and whispered, "Let's go."
Sang Yuan couldn't help but whispered while running, "Why is my sister even more timid than me?"
During Sang Yuan's sixteen years of cultivation, he had met many cultivators with higher cultivation than himself. All of them were very confident in their own cultivation, even to the point of being conceited.
For mortals, cultivating immortality is essentially a fight for their lives against heaven. How can one do it without courage?
But Nifang is like an alien.
He had never seen such a timid cultivator before. Perhaps it would be more appropriate to describe her as "cherishing her life". When she encountered a monster above level three, her first reaction was to run away. If he hadn't flown over and actively attacked the monster, standing in front to attract fire, he had no doubt that she would definitely turn around and leave.
She just gave up the rare treasures guarded by monsters.
Sang Yuan couldn't help but ask himself, shouldn't a person with good fortune be a natural Taoist like Luo Haisheng who cares about saving the world? Or a child of destiny like Lin Yi who has forsaken all emotions and mastered the sword art?
This is the first time he has seen someone like Ni Fang.
Ni Fang's running speed remained unchanged, but his face was calm and relaxed. "Since you have followed me for so long, I will teach you a lesson - as long as you have the green mountains, you will not be afraid of running out of firewood. How to survive is what ordinary people like us should consider."
Could this be the son of destiny?
Sang Yuan's brain was rarely stuck.
……
Ni Fang naturally had no idea of Sang Yuan’s complicated thoughts, as she was busy bargaining with Mingming.
[Host, you just burned your arm while fighting the third-level purple-gold tiger. Five points will be deducted. You currently have 130 points.]
Ni Fang was about to cry, but she had no tears: "But I was only slightly burned by the sparks sprayed by the purple-gold tiger! It's only a one-centimeter wound!"
[Host, please be more careful to protect yourself next time! ]
[The person currently ranked first is Luo Haisheng, who is on the 38th floor of the Pantian Tower. Although Lin Yi stayed on the 32nd floor for a long time, he is still ranked second. Yu Ningyan, Chenxiang, Jing Qi and others have not yet reached the 30th floor. ]
Ni Fang asked himself: Among all the cultivators, what level am I at now, at the fourteenth level?
[Just barely passed the passing line. Although I have always advised you not to take the risk of entering the Sky-climbing Tower, this result has exceeded my expectations. If you encounter danger, you can crush your life card and leave the Sky-climbing Tower at any time. After all, your points will only get less and less! ]
This is actually what Mingming has been thinking all along.
Using points as bait, he tempted her to finish the trial of the Sky-climbing Tower as soon as possible.
But you don't want to listen to it.
The concealment array could only last for the duration of an incense stick. Before the concealment array expired, Ni Fang took Sang Yuan and hid in a cave.
"What's the movement of your treasure-hunting rat? The formation I deduced is more than a hundred miles south of here. Get the natural treasures on this level first before leaving."
Sang Yuan released the treasure-hunting mouse. The little fellow was crunching on a top-grade spirit stone. After the mouse had finished eating the spirit stone, Sang Yuan coaxed it in a low voice. Only then did it stand up and start searching in the four directions of east, south, west and north.
"Maybe I've been using it too frequently these past few days, so Xiaobao is a little unhappy."
Ni Fang couldn't help but snorted, "If you don't like it, just turn yourself into a rat and eat all my high-grade spirit stones for nothing."
Maybe what Ni Fang said really worked. The treasure-hunting mouse retracted its claws and started squeaking continuously.
Sang Yuan listened patiently for a while, then burst out laughing. After a while, he spoke under Ni Fang's scrutinizing gaze, "Xiao Bao said that the treasures on this floor have been taken away and are hidden where the fight just happened. I guess one of them happened to see the other person getting the treasures, so they started a fight."
Ni Fang stared at the treasure-hunting mouse with a dark face.
"Sister, do you want to go back and try your luck? This floor has an even number of numbers, you don't want to leave with nothing, do you?"
Ni Fang refused without even thinking, "Let's go, let's go to the next floor."
The two cultivators were both in the middle stage of foundation building. Even if they wanted to reap the benefits, they would definitely get hurt. Ni Fang thought about his precarious points and rejected Sang Yuan's proposal.
"If you want to try your luck, go alone," Ni Fang took off the twin bells hanging from his waist and handed them over, "The agreement is terminated. Life and death are at your own risk."
Sang Yuan smiled and pushed the twin bells back, "If my sister doesn't go, I won't go either."
Even after spending some time together in the Sky-climbing Tower, Ni Fang still couldn't see through Sang Yuan. He usually pretended to be innocent and knew nothing, and his fighting ability was shockingly weak, but every time he encountered danger, Sang Yuan could escape unscathed, and even suffered fewer injuries than himself.
In addition, all the kindness and smiles that Sang Yuan showed were too easy. Although Ni Fang knew that he must have some plan, he still couldn't figure out what his purpose was in approaching her.
Forget it, none of this matters.
Since Mingming never mentioned the existence of a character named Sang Yuan in the book, he is probably just a passerby who can't cause any trouble.
Ni Fang did not persuade him any further. He just tied the twin bells around his waist again, summoned the cold sword, and uttered two words in a concise manner, "Come up."
Sang Yuan jumped onto the Han Guang Sword and skillfully grabbed the belt around Ni Fang's waist.
The two of them flew south on their swords. In order to avoid being affected by the fight, Ni Fang even used more spiritual power to fly higher.
