The villain who wears a book: I was called Master by the protagonist!

"All right!"

Gu Changqing broke the originally dull atmosphere and smiled at Ye Qing:

"Disciple, the ice crystal fruit is right there, why don't you try it?"

Hearing this, Ye Qing showed an expression of disbelief on his face, and looked at Gu Changqing and asked:

"Master, can we just swallow it directly? Don't we need to prepare something in advance?"

"No need!" Gu Changqing shook his head, waved his right hand gently, and a red light flew out, bringing back an ice crystal fruit.

He held it in his hand, took a closer look, and said slowly:

"Ice crystal fruit is actually an ordinary fruit, but it grows relying on the spiritual energy between the mountains and forests."

"So, it looks brighter than other fruits, but it has no side effects."

"Otherwise, it wouldn't be seen everywhere on the roadside!"

Hearing this, Ye Qing no longer had any doubts in his heart. He walked forward, took the ice crystal fruit and swallowed it directly.

After waiting for a few seconds, his body did not undergo any changes and he did not feel anything unusual inside.

Faced with this, he looked puzzled and said:

"Master, what's going on?"

"It doesn't work at all!"

"What's the hurry?" Gu Changqing knocked on Ye Qing's head and said angrily, "Do you think this is a panacea? Will it work after you take it?"

"Ice crystal fruit! It's similar to an apple! You have to give it time to digest it after you eat it!"

After hearing this explanation, Ye Qing scratched his head awkwardly and said, "I was a little too impatient."

"So, Master, what are we going to do next?"

Gu Changqing opened the map, took a look, and said:

"We are not too far from the central area, so let's go directly there next."

"Oh!" Ye Qing nodded, and then asked: "Master, what should we do with the remaining ice crystal fruit?"

"Keep it!"

Gu Changqing said casually, then put the map away and said while looking at the ice crystal fruit tree.

"With your current cultivation level, eating one ice crystal fruit is enough. In a few hours, you will be able to break through to the eighth level of Qi training."

"Eating ice crystal fruit again will be of no use to you."

"It's a pity to pick it, so let's just stay here!"

After a brief rest, Gu Changqing and the other two continued on their journey.

On the way, Ji Ziyue seemed to have thought of something and shouted to Gu Changqing: "Mr. Gu, wait a moment."

Gu Changqing stopped and turned to look at her, "What's wrong?"

Ji Ziyue pointed to the east, hesitated for a moment, and said:

"Mr. Gu, when I first arrived, I saw an ice crystal snow lotus in the cold pond."

"Beside the snow lotus, there is a demon beast guarding it. The demon beast is very powerful and I am no match for it, so..."

Gu Changqing looked at her deeply and continued, "So, you want me to get it for you?"

Ji Ziyue didn't say anything. She must have thought that what Gu Changqing said was exactly what she was thinking.

Seeing this, Ye Qing immediately became annoyed and said, "Miss Ji, don't you understand the current situation?"

"You are in our hands, a prisoner, to be used to catch the one who controls me!"

"Now you say you want to get that ice crystal snow lotus? How can you say such a thing?"

"Do you think we'll go?"

"Yes!" Just when Ji Ziyue didn't know how to persuade him, Gu Changqing suddenly replied.

meeting?

Ye Qing's eyes were blank, and there were question marks all over his head. He was puzzled: "Master, do you mean that we should go?"

"Of course!"

Gu Changqing nodded.

Looking at Ji Ziyue, he said:

"But I am determined to get the Ice Crystal Snow Lotus!"

"Miss Ji, if you want this Ice Crystal Snow Lotus, I advise you to give it up!"

Ji Ziyue put on a smile and nodded, "Since it's Master Gu who wants it, I naturally won't fight for it."

"Then let me lead the way!" After saying that, she led the way.

Ye Qing was a little confused and asked in a low voice: "Master, why should we go?"

"What if the information she gave is wrong and the monster is very powerful?"

Gu Changqing chuckled and said, "No matter how powerful the monster is, I will definitely get this ice crystal snow lotus."

"why?"

"Is the Ice Crystal Snow Lotus rare?"

Gu Changqing nodded slightly and said, "The Ice Crystal Snow Lotus is something that is hard to find in Ziyun Continent, and it is a priceless treasure."

"Although it is of no use to me, it can cure Elder Qin's illness."

"Before, I promised Ling'er that I would help her find the thousand-year-old snow lotus and the ten-thousand-year-old blood ginseng."

"Now that I finally found one, how can I give it up so easily?"

Seeing the master's determined eyes, Ye Qing no longer hesitated.

Whatever the Master says, that’s what it is!

If you want something, just grab it!

Although I don't know who Mr. Qin and Ling'er are, but Master said that he had promised them, so he must not go back on his word.

Moreover, I also believe in Master. No one who can hurt him has appeared in Ziyun Continent yet!

……

Soon, Gu Changqing and others arrived at the so-called cold pond. The water in the pond was icy, and cold air came out from it from time to time.

In the center of the cold pond, there is a lotus emitting golden light. If nothing unexpected happens, it is the ice crystal snow lotus.

In addition, next to the ice crystal snow lotus, there is a monster in a deep sleep.

Its fur is crystal white, and there are pure black stripes on its back, just like a leopard.

Gu Changqing had never encountered this monster before, but through the system's prompts, he knew its name.

White-browed blood-sucking leopard!

"Wait a moment."

Ye Qing and Ji Ziyue were about to move forward, but were stopped by Gu Changqing who raised his hand.

He first looked around, as if he had discovered something, and whispered, "Let's hide first."

Although they didn't know what had happened, when they saw their master's expression, Ye Qing and Ji Ziyue immediately stopped and followed Gu Changqing to hide behind a huge rock.

Not long after, a group of people came over here. After counting carefully, there were six people.

The six people walked to the vicinity of the cold pond and then stopped.

While observing the movements of the white-browed blood-sucking leopard, they talked in low voices.

Although their voices were very low, they were nothing in front of a cheater like Gu Changqing!

"Brother, what should we do? That leopard looks quite brutal. Should we just attack it?"

"Don't worry! The leopard is sleeping. As long as we make little noise, it will never notice us."

"I think we can arrange five people to deal with the leopard, and let the remaining person go to get the ice crystal snow lotus. In this way, we can get the snow lotus and find a chance to retreat safely! What do you think?"

"Good idea! I agree!"

"However, after we get the snow lotus, what if someone runs away? After all, we are a temporary team. I think we should think carefully about this relationship of trust, right?"
