Cultivating immortals is a hard job

Gu Qingqing then smiled and said, "By the way, Junior Sister Yao and I are here on the orders of our uncle to pick some more Qianyuan fruit."

The man then turned his eyes away from Mo Xun, and asked with a little surprise, "Didn't we come here once before?"

Gu Qingqing's face remained calm.

"There was a slight discrepancy when counting the guests last night, so I have to trouble you again."

The man nodded after pondering. This situation was reasonable. After all, after the messy wedding yesterday, no one in charge of the sect has been there so far!

"In that case, please follow me, Junior Sisters!"

As he spoke, under the leadership of the man, the three of them stepped into the barrier one after another.

The area inside was really not small, about two or three acres, and low fruit trees like peach trees were neatly planted in the red soil.

The spiritual energy around was extremely dense, and it was obvious that there was a gathering spirit array.

The faint mist filled the air, which gave it a sense of paradise.

On each spiritual fruit tree, there were some red or green fruits hanging in spots, which were crystal clear and delicious in the sun.

Gu Qingqing stared at the fresh and rosy Qianyuan fruits, her eyes full of brilliance.

These are all spiritual stones!

With the eyesight of the two, they could roughly see that the fruit trees here should be around a thousand years old.

The spiritual fruits above were what the Five Elements Sect treated them with yesterday.

If we calculate it based on 10,000 spiritual stones per tree, each tree is equivalent to hanging hundreds of thousands of spiritual stones alive, and the whole orchard is simply an astronomical figure.

From this point of view, the Qianyuan fruits sent out by the Five Elements Sect yesterday are worth more than 10 million spiritual stones.

This is the confidence of the Eight Star Sect!

But from another perspective, the gifts they received are naturally valuable!

As far as Mo Xun knows, it takes five hundred years for a Qianyuan fruit tree to grow, one hundred years for it to bloom, one hundred years for it to bear fruit, and one hundred years for it to mature.

In other words, it takes at least eight hundred years for a Qianyuan fruit to mature from being planted!

At this time, not to mention Gu Qingqing, even Mo Xun, who has never valued spirit stones, has a faster heartbeat.

If he could own such an orchard, he probably wouldn't have to worry about spirit stones until the Nascent Soul stage.

"How many are you going to pick this time, Junior Sister?"

As he spoke, the man took out a book from his waist and pretended to record it.

Gu Qingqing immediately came back to her senses and said with a lack of confidence: "Three... Thirty!"

In fact, before coming in, she wanted to take only ten at most, but when she saw the crystal clear fruits in the garden, she immediately changed her mind.

As the saying goes, if you don't take advantage of it, you are a bastard. This kind of opportunity is not something you can always encounter.

There was a brief hesitation on the man's face.

After all, the maids who came here this morning only picked two or three each. Even if the statistics were wrong, the difference would not be so big, right?

He couldn't help but look at Gu Qingqing again, frowning imperceptibly.

The pen in his hand suddenly stopped, and he took a step back slightly.

Although the other party's actions were concealed, they were caught by Mo Xun in time.

"By the way, which uncle did you follow the Taoist order from? Do you have a letter for me?"

"It was Elder Shen Ling of Huanyu Palace. Because he came in a hurry, Elder Shen did not write a letter, only a verbal order!"

Gu Qingqing's two sentences were not made up casually. The chat with Wei Qian yesterday was not in vain after all.

And obviously, she had thought of the response wording in advance, otherwise she would not be so calm at this moment.

This Elder Shen Ling is one of the main persons in charge of this wedding ceremony, responsible for the reception of guests.

If you don't ask specifically, you may not be able to tell.

The man nodded in understanding, and his expression eased a little.

Just as he was about to register, he asked casually, "I heard that Junior Sister Wei sent a gift to Senior Uncle Liu of Yinxia Peak a few days ago. I think it won't be long before she can become his disciple, right?"

Gu Qingqing was already calculating in her heart, with these dozens of spiritual fruits, plus the four before, how many spiritual stones could she exchange for, and how much rationality would she have left in her heart?

He sighed lightly without losing his desire to perform.

"Alas! Who knows, those Jindan elders, how can they be easily moved?"

In fact, as soon as the other party asked this, Mo Xun felt something was wrong.

Sure enough, just as Gu Qingqing finished speaking, the man retreated abruptly and threw something in his hand.

With a bang, a "golden bowl" about ten feet in size covered their heads, and Mo Xun and Gu Qingqing's eyes went dark at the same time.

Then, the man's angry shout came to their ears.

"There is no Uncle Liu in Yinxia Peak. Who are you? How dare you trespass into Xianmiao Garden? Tell the truth."

As the man spoke, he jumped up and landed directly on the golden bowl. He used the Thousand Mountains Falling Move and quickly took out several talismans and pasted them around the golden bowl.

But when he thought he had won, his feet suddenly shook violently.

Before he could react, the golden bowl exploded with a bang.

In the midst of smoke and dust, countless fragments flew out, some of which hit the Qianyuan fruit tree directly, cutting the whole tree in half.

The man's body was also blown away by the aftermath of the explosion.

In mid-air, Gu Qingqing flashed and came behind the other person. Then she slapped out with her palm. Five slender fingers grew three-inch-long nails and pierced through his back.

The hand that came out from the front was dripping with blood, and it was holding a beating heart!

This person was probably the first time in his life that he saw his heart with his own eyes, but it was obviously the last time.

As the blood splashed, the man's face was full of unexpected fear.

He thought he was facing two thieves in the early stage of foundation building, but who knew that the magic power of these two people would be so strong.

He wanted to shout now, but found that he couldn't open his mouth at all.

He could clearly feel that his life was slipping away bit by bit.

In fact, when he got away, Mo Xun wanted to take action, but Gu Qingqing's action was faster.

And this was also the first time Mo Xun saw Gu Qingqing's ruthless side.

Just as the man was about to die, a sound transmission note came out of his body, and then the barrier not far away began to slowly close.

The two were shocked at the same time, and they obviously didn't expect that this man would have a backup plan before his death.

Mo Xun took a step forward and came to the barrier. He first glanced left and right, then took out several formation flags and threw them in different directions.

The speed of the barrier closing suddenly slowed down, but it didn't stop.
