#906 - Chapter 906 Everyone Returns
Just as they were utterly bewildered, a child appearing from nowhere attracted their attention. The child looked to be about seven or eight years old, dressed in a small green robe, with a wobbly hair bun held in place by two leaves.
The disciples assumed Xi'er was a shepherd boy and went up to chat, asking for directions to the逍遥宗 (Xiaoyao Sect).
However, upon getting closer, they noticed the child's skin was extremely white, crystal clear, and as radiant as crystal. His features were delicate and pleasing to the eye, but unlike other shepherd boys, he had an extra eye on his forehead.
Seeing a swarm of people heading towards him, Xi'er's eyes darted around, and he immediately thought of a terrible idea.
“Look, that's your 逍遥峰 (Xiaoyao Peak).”
Following the direction Xi'er pointed, the ten people saw a boundless watermelon field appear in the distance, a truly delightful sight.
When the group turned around to thank the child, he had vanished without a trace.
The scorching sun blazed in the sky, so hot that the fish in the river dared not surface, the birds dared not fly out of the forest, and even the village dogs were panting with their tongues hanging out.
The group went up the mountain, thirsty all the way. Seeing the child disappear and no one around the watermelon field, the ten people tacitly and knowingly walked into the field, each picking a large watermelon to quench their thirst.
Who knew that the large watermelons were so sturdy? They chopped with swords, hacked with knives, and used all their strength, barely managing to open one.
One was enough to satisfy their thirst. The group was extremely thirsty and saw no one around, so they started eating.
The flesh inside the watermelon was bright red, the pulp looked very tempting. The seeds inside were jet black. Each person held a piece of watermelon and took a bite. The watermelon tasted sweet and refreshing.
After eating everything, the group felt satisfied and sat down on the ground to rest before looking for the逍遥宗 (Xiaoyao Sect) again.
Unexpectedly, after a short while, Lin Yaoyao felt abdominal pain, and the other nine also experienced the same reaction. All ten of them suffered from unbearable stomachaches, and they realized something was wrong. They had been tricked!
Unfortunately, the ten of them were in too much pain to settle the score with the child. Just as they were rolling on the ground in pain, the child who had given them directions reappeared, laughing so hard that he was doubled over, clutching his stomach.
At this moment, Ye Kong, who was still talking with Feng Qingqing, felt his right eyelid twitch three times. Ye Kong felt that something had happened. After stopping his conversation with Feng Qingqing, he took out the Profound Spirit Fan. With a wave of his right hand, he saw Xiao Shan happily playing with the茅草屋 (thatched house) and Erha. It shouldn't be Xiao Shan who was in trouble. Ye Kong fanned the Profound Spirit Fan again, and the scene changed to Xi'er laughing heartily. Ye Kong was puzzled. Why was Xi'er laughing so happily? He zoomed in on the picture and saw Lin Yaoyao, Bai Wuchen, and the other disciples rolling on the ground, their faces showing extreme discomfort. Ye Kong knew without thinking that Xi'er must have poisoned them.
“Outrageous!” Ye Kong shouted. Feng Qingqing had also seen the scene presented by the Profound Spirit Fan and roughly guessed what had angered Ye Kong.
Ye Kong immediately stood up, waved his sleeve, and a vortex-like door appeared in front of him. Ye Kong walked in, and Feng Qingqing followed. In the blink of an eye, Ye Kong and Feng Qingqing appeared above Xi'er through the vortex door.
Ye Kong saw the painful expressions of Ye Wuxin, Ye Qingjun, and the others, and couldn't bear it. He spoke out.
Just as Xi'er was still laughing, a majestic voice came from afar.
“Xi'er, no nonsense!” Everyone was dazed by the pain at this time and had no intention of listening to the voice, so naturally they didn't recognize that it was Ye Kong's voice.
Bai Wuchen blinked his eyes, thinking that a wise man knows better than to fight when the odds are against him. Bai Wuchen immediately knelt down, clenched his fists, and raised them above his head. Bai Wuchen endured the pain and shouted.
“Big boss, please accept my humble bow. Big boss, spare me, save me, save me.” Bai Wuchen was a complete coward. This isn't called cowardice, it's called following one's heart.
The other disciples cast disdainful glances at Bai Wuchen's embarrassing behavior. Even though the pain was unbearable, none of the others spoke.
Ye Kong paused in mid-air, saw his disciples' performance, and couldn't help but sigh, thinking, “My disciples' path to cultivating their hearts is still very long. In the face of an enemy with no chance of winning, self-esteem is never a valuable thing. Strength is. Only when you become strong can you have enough ability to face powerful enemies, and only then can you have enough power to protect yourself and the people you want to protect. Unfortunately, they haven't realized it yet.”
Thinking this, Ye Kong slowly fell from above, landing as lightly as a feather.
Ye Kong and Feng Qingqing landed steadily in front of the ten people. Everyone looked up, and the sunlight shone on Ye Kong, giving him a golden halo. Seeing Ye Kong's familiar face, the ten people felt as relieved as if they had seen a savior.
Ye Kong said slightly angrily, “Xi'er, outrageous! They are your senior brothers and sisters. Quickly take out the antidote.” Ye Kong scolded Xi'er.
Xi'er, scolded by Ye Kong, stopped smiling, lowered his head, and took out the antidote. Feng Qingqing took the antidote from Xi'er's hand, half-supported Lin Yaoyao, and fed her the antidote. After taking the antidote, the pain in Lin Yaoyao's body slowly subsided and disappeared, and Lin Yaoyao's face returned to normal. After taking the antidote, the others also recovered.
Ye Kong called Xi'er, who was standing obediently with his head down, to his side, facing Lin Yaoyao and the others.
“This is your junior brother, and also my newly accepted disciple, named Xi'er. He is good at concocting poisons and poisoning. He can poison all things and people invisibly. The poisons are all made by Xi'er himself, and only he has the antidote. Xi'er is naturally mischievous and lively, so he poisoned you.” Ye Kong briefly introduced Xi'er to the ten disciples.
After hearing Ye Kong's introduction of Xi'er and seeing Xi'er lowering his head tightly, the crowd surrounded him, but they didn't take his teasing to heart, only treating it as a misunderstanding.
Seeing Xi'er lower his head in shame, the crowd surrounded Xi'er, who immediately hugged his little face, thinking that his senior brothers and sisters were going to settle the score with him.
“Don't hit my face, don't hit my face,” Xi'er pleaded.
The crowd was amused by Xi'er's pleading look. The ten people asked all sorts of questions at once.
“Hey, Xi'er, your poison is powerful. The pain just now almost made Senior Brother Bai think he was going to die.”
“Junior brother, your poison is really powerful! Teach your fifth senior sister!”
“Junior brother, how many years have you studied this? You use it so wonderfully!”
“Xi'er…”
The senior brothers and sisters were all very curious about Xi'er's poison, and Xi'er instantly explained it to them with a smile. Xi'er's smile, a pure smile, melted the hearts of the senior brothers and sisters.
Seeing this scene of Xi'er getting along harmoniously with his senior brothers and sisters, Ye Kong showed a loving smile and felt very gratified.
