My New Life As A Plant In A Cultivation World - Chapter 59

Chapter 59: So Everything Was A Misunderstanding

Lu Xiaoyuan and her companions ate their breakfast.

Then, they came to the backyard of Yuelai Inn.

There were many stables. Elder Lu kept their five horses here.

They arrived outside the stable. Gold Xiao’er looked at the well-fed horses and felt satisfied with them.

“This Yuelai Inn is not bad. The forage they fed the horses is not bad.”

“It’s a famous inn so they should have this quality.” Qin Yi smiled and led his horse out of the stable.

The others led their horses out without speaking.

Qin Yi flung himself on his horse and turned around to look at Lu Xiaoyuan. He asked, “Master Deer, this is the second assassination Elder Lu and I have met. Shall we hurry on our journey today?”

“Sure.” Lu Xiaoyuan nodded.

“Okay.”

Everyone got on their horses and left Yuelai Inn.

…

Outside Zhenhai city.

“Tap, tap…”

Five healthy horses run furiously.

Zhou Ye was tied around Lu Xiaoyuan’s waist. He enjoyed the gale blowing against his face. He felt as though he was going to fall at any moment.

He glanced behind him. He didn’t want to drop.

There were four horses behind him. There was a high possibility that he would get trampled on if he fell.

Although he wouldn’t get hurt, it would make him uncomfortable.

Very soon, the morning passed.

They traveled for a hundred kilometers. They met no dangers along the way.

Rows and rows of mountains would be seen beside them.

Lu Xiaoyuan and her companions slowed down.

They were traveling at a high speed and intensity so they felt tired. Plus, their horses should also be tired by now.

Suddenly.

Qin Yi pointed to the peak of a mountain and asked curiously, “Look, what’s that?”

Everyone looked in that direction.

There was a silver light shimmering halfway on the mountain. Every single ray of light was very thin. One look and it gave off a sharp aura.

It felt as though there was nothing it couldn’t slit.

“This…” Gold Xiao’er was confused.

He lived for fifty thousand years and had a high cultivation state but he hadn’t had a lot of experience.

“Someone is fighting.” Lu Xiaoyuan squinted.

“Boom…”

A sound was heard coming from the peak of the mountain not far away. When it reached their ears, the sound was fainter but it was still astonishing.

Rays and rays of silver-white light circled the mountain. They split everything in their path.

Huge rocks, big trees, none was an exception.

“That’s… sword light?!” Elder Lu’s pupils constricted. There was fear in the depth of his eyes.

“Boom!”

The moment Elder Lu finished speaking, the entire peak of the mountain exploded and turned into balls of mud that looked like tofu.

“If that’s sword light, the cultivator must be Xuan Core realm or above.” Qin Yi took a deep breath. There was yearning in his eyes.

“The person is at the early-stage of the Xuan Core realm,” Gold Xiao’er said calmly as he looked in the distance.

“Brother Gold, you’re so powerful. You can sense the other person’s cultivation state from so far away.” Qin Yi turned his head and smiled as he curry favoured with his Brother Gold.

Gold Xiao’er shrugged.

“He’s coming.”

“Huh?” Qin Yi was stunned. Then, he looked over.

Silver light shot over from afar. If you took a look at it carefully, you could see a young man wearing a white gown. He was stepping on a long sword that had been expanded several times.

“He’s able to fly. Even if it’s just flying on the sword, he must be at the Xuan Core realm.” Elder Lu was envious.

When he was young, the Xuan Core realm had always been his goal.

But, he was the emperor’s personal guard at that time so he needed to follow the emperor into wars all the time. That was why he had many injuries on his body.

If no accidents happened, the highest realm he could achieve in this life was the peak of the Xuan Sea realm.

“Swoosh!”

The young man in white gown moved quickly and landed on the road a few feet away from Lu Xiaoyuan and her companions.

He clutched his right hand and the long sword shrunk to a green blade three feet in length. With a ‘swoosh’, the long sword flew into the sheath behind his back.

The young man wearing a white gown stood there with his hands behind his back. He was tall and slender and his skin was as fair as jade. There was a silver symbol in the shape of a sword in the middle of his forehead.

His long white gown fluttered in the air even though there was no wind. While it was fluttering, it made loud sounds. The aura of a powerful cultivator exuded from his body.

Everything about him made him look very powerful.

“I just destroyed the mountain bandits who have been bringing disaster to this region. In the future, when you walk on this path, it will be much safer.”

“There’s no need to thank me. This is something I should do.”

The young man wearing a white gown tilted his head slightly and looked at Lu Xiaoyuan and her companions.

This was what he said but everyone could tell that he was feeling very proud. He seemed to be hinting at everyone to compliment him quickly.

“Let me represent the civilians living in the surroundings to thank you!” Qin Yi cupped his fists.

“This is just a small matter…” The young man wearing a white gown was preparing to act humbly.

But, from the corner of his eyes, he saw Yaoyao, and his pupils constricted.

“Demon!”

Sharp silver sword lights shot out from his body when he said this word. The sword lights surrounded him.

“Slash!”

The long sword flew out of its sheath. The silver-white blade gave off a cold sheen under the sunlight. He aimed the tip of his sword at Yaoyao.

“You are being a little outrageous here.” Gold Xiao’er frowned. He was unhappy.

When he said this, the young man felt as though there was a huge mountain pressing down on his shoulder.

Instantly, the hand he used to hold his sword started trembling.

His powerful aura disappeared.

“A powerful demon…” The young man wearing a white gown took a deep breath as he stared at Gold Xiao’er intently.

“Killing demons and destroying devils is the ultimate goal of our Sword Sect. As a disciple of the Sword Sect, I will not allow any demons to harm the human world. No matter how high your cultivation state is, I will fight with you with my life on the line today!” The young man sounded so righteous when he said this.

Qin Yi and Elder Lu exchanged glances. They were in disbelief.

This young man was actually a disciple of the legendary Sword Sect…

At the same time, they finally understood why Gold Xiao’er dared to go against his oath.

This Master Gold was really not a human.

“Return of a Thousand Swords!”

The young man wearing a white gown shouted.

The Xuan pearl in his dantian started spinning furiously. Strings of Xuan Qi flowed through his meridians and entered his sword through his palm.

The tip of his sword was engulfed with a silver-white sword glow. The serious expression of the young man was reflected on the sharp blade of the sword. He was going to release his ultimate move the next second.

In his imagination, he would either slash his opponent to death or run away if he couldn’t.

As for the righteous words he said a moment ago, they were all bullshit.

“Interesting.” Gold Xiao’er smiled indifferently.

Honestly speaking, no one had provoked him in such a long time.

However, it couldn’t be helped. The wood world was too harmonious. Normally, they wouldn’t fight. If they provoked someone, they would just pay with their assets.

Besides the living creatures he killed to fill up his stomach, the number of intellectual creatures he killed in the wood world was less than ten.

Today, he could finally reveal his true nature in the human world.

There was contempt on his face as he slapped the horse’s back, and he immediately flew into the air.

Rays of gold light shot out of his body. In an instant, he was more glaring than the sun.

“Screech!”

A long screech.

Gold Xiao’er revealed his true form.

He stretched his wings. It was a hundred meters in length. His talons were huge and dark gold like hooks.

When he waved his wings, the light reflected on it almost blinded Zhou Ye.

So amazing.

Zhou Ye exclaimed in his heart.

At the same time, he felt that the young man wearing a white gown might die soon.

“Gulp…” The young man’s Adam’s apple moved up and down. He felt his legs turning weak.

If there weren’t so many people here, he wanted to slap himself in his face.

Damn it, why was he so stupid? Why did he provoke such a powerful demon?

“Slash!”

The young man wearing a white gown threw his sword back into his sheath. He cupped his fists at Gold Xiao’er who was looking down on him from the sky as though he was prey. He smiled apologetically and said, “Senior, you might not believe me but this is all a misunderstanding.”

“The job of the Sword Sect is to kill demons and devils. But I have been traveling in the human world for many years. Based on my experience, demons who like to cause trouble are all ugly.”

“However, senior, you’re different. Look, after you reveal your true form, you are so handsome. The moment you changed your form, your dominating aura exploded. Even though you are just hovering in mid-air without doing anything, you exuded a powerful and domineering feeling.”

“Thus, I concluded that, based on your aura, you are definitely not a demon that will create trouble. Hence, this is all a misunderstanding.”

Gold Xiao’er: …

Zhou Ye was shocked.

He thought that this fellow would fight with Gold Xiao’er, but in the end, his attitude changed completely.
