Global Cultivation: First-time Top-up for the Ultimate Destiny Treasure-Chapter 240 - Coincidence? They Set Off Again
Chapter 240: Coincidence? They Set Off Again
Soon, night fell, but they did not see Elder Nie contact them.
The next morning, there was a light knock on the door outside Su Yi’s room.
He slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of fresh air. Last night, he had conveniently consumed a celestial-grade foundation establishment pill.
Right now, he had consumed six celestial-grade foundation establishment pills, and he had also condensed six strands of innate Gengjin qi, which reduced the damage to his body by as much as 12%.
As long as he consumed four more pills, he would be able to complete the condensation of innate Gengjin Qi, and the chance of breaking through the realm would also reach 1000%.
Hearing the light knock on the door of the cultivation room, he quickly stood up, tidied up his clothes, and then asked Little Xie to return to the dagger.
He came to the door and slowly opened the door of the cultivation room. He saw a beautiful figure leaning against the railing of the inn with her back facing him. Who else could this figure be but Nie Ling?
Nie Ling heard the movement and turned around to look at him and said, “Su Yi, grandpa sent a message. He told us to wait for him at the city gate. We are ready to set off.”
Hearing this, Su Yi hummed in acknowledgment and then walked down the stairs with Nie Ling.
Creak–
Halfway down the corridor, a room door suddenly opened, causing Su Yi to be surprised.
This shabby inn still had people staying there?
He stopped in his tracks and saw Li Mengxi in a black dress slowly walking out of the door, stretching her body.
Li Mengxi, who felt someone looking at him, turned his head slightly and saw Su Yi.
Immediately, the two of them stared at each other and then said in surprise at the same time.
“Fellow Daoist Li!”
“Fellow Daoist Su!”
“Why are you here?”
The two of them looked at each other and said at the same time, which made people wonder if they had rehearsed well or if they really had such a tacit understanding.
“You go first!”
“Ugh…”
They said at the same time again, and the two of them fell into an awkward situation. Such a neat and tidy conversation made Nie Ling, who was behind Su Yi, chuckle.
Nie Ling stepped forward, looked at Li Mengxi, and said “fellow Daoist Li, what a coincidence.”
Seeing Nie Ling come to break the awkwardness, Li Mengxi also followed the steps down and replied.
“Yes, fellow Daoist Nie, why are you and fellow Daoist Su Here?”
Although she had confirmed yesterday that Su Yi was very likely to be in this North Barren City, what Li Mengxi did not expect was that it was such a coincidence that they actually stopped at the same inn, and they even met by coincidence.
Hearing this, Nie Ling looked at Su Yi, but the latter did not have any reaction, so she replied, “I just came to this city for some important matters. What about you, fellow Daoist Li?”
Li Mengxi smiled and looked at Nie Ling and Su Yi, a strange meaning flashed through her eyes as she said indifferently, “it’s just another important matter.”
At this time, the doors of the other rooms slowly opened, and they saw a slender and handsome young man slowly walking towards them.
“Little sister, who are these two?”
Li Zhengxuan looked at Su Yi and Nie Ling and asked. When he looked at Nie Ling, a hint of envy appeared in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
Although that female cultivator was very beautiful and was on par with his little sister, he had someone in his heart.
Seeing her big brother come over, Li Mengxi’s body trembled. Then, she pulled Li Zhengxuan to the front and introduced him to Su Yi and Nie Ling.
“Fellow Daoist Su, fellow Daoist nie. Let me introduce you. This is my big brother, Li Zhengxuan.”
Hearing this, Su Yi cupped his fists and greeted Li Zhengxuan.
“Greetings, Big Brother Li.”
Then, Li Mengxi introduced Su Yi and the others to Li Zhengxuan.
“Big brother, this is Nie Ling, the eldest daughter of the Nie family.”
Hearing this, Nie Ling bowed to him as a greeting.
Then, Li Mengxi pointed at Su Yi and introduced him.
“This is the Su Yi I told you about before. Fellow Daoist Su, I’ve known him since before the immortal destiny opened.”
“You’re Su Yi?!”
He did not expect Li Mengxi’s older brother, Li Zhengxuan, to be so shocked when he heard this.
He blinked his eyes and swept a glance at Su Yi before asking.
“Brother Su Yi, are you the Su Yi who, according to the rumors in the Central Plains, played all the major forces by himself?”
Li Zhengxuan’s face was full of curiosity. He had heard that there was an extraordinary person in the Central Plains. He had a love-hate relationship with the third elder of the Sword Pavilion, and he even played with the old monster of the aristocratic families. His reputation could be said to be at its peak.
However, the cultivators in the Central Plains thought that Su Yi had been secretly killed by those aristocratic families. He did not expect him to appear in the North Barren City.
Su Yi was not modest either. He smiled faintly and said, “if there isn’t a second Su Yi in the Central Plains, then it would be me.”
“I see. Brother Su Yi, I’ve long heard of you. I didn’t expect that this little sister would be able to know such an extraordinary person like you.”
The two of them stretched out their hands and lightly shook each other as a sign of friendliness.
At this moment, Nie Ling tugged at the corner of Su Yi’s clothes and then whispered in his ear, “Su Yi, Grandpa is urging us.”
Hearing this, Su Yi also knew that it was time to leave. Thus, he cupped his fists towards Li Mengxi and Li Zhengxuan and said, “fellow Daoist Li, Big Brother Li, I still have something to do. I’ll take my leave first.”
Hearing this, the other party nodded. Then, Li Mengxi said, “fellow Daoist Su, fellow Daoist Nie, we’ll meet again in the future.”
The few of them gestured. Then, Su Yi and Nie Ling walked down the stairs of the inn. After throwing the room key to the innkeeper, they directly left the inn.
Upstairs, Li Zhengxuan turned his head to look at his little sister. He saw his little sister smiling faintly as she looked at the entrance of the inn. He immediately raised his brows, as if he had smelled something strange.
He looked at his little sister and said indifferently, “little sister, don’t tell me you’re interested in that Su Yi?”
Who knew that the moment he said this, Li Mengxi would roll her eyes endlessly.
…
At this moment, Su Yi and Nie Ling were already on their way to the city gate.
“Su Yi, what do you think fellow Daoist Li is doing in North Barren City?” Nie Ling asked curiously.
North Barren City was a remote place. She really could not think of what she could do in this city.
Hearing this, he muttered to himself for a while, then looked at the city gate and said lightly, “maybe, she’s also going to the ancient ruins.”
Actually, there was something Su Yi did not say. When he met Li Mengxi, there was a room that suddenly emitted a terrifying aura. If he did not sense it wrong, it was at least at the level of an old monster.
The other party’s attention was clearly focused on Li Mengxi and Li Zhengxuan. They were clearly from the Li family.
The Li family had that kind of strength, and they were also from an aristocratic family. What else could their target be other than the ancient ruins that were about to open?
He told Nie Ling about his idea, and Nie Ling agreed after listening.
Other than this, he really could not think of the use of coming to the North Barren City.
Soon, they arrived at the city gate. In their eyes, two amiable old men appeared.
