Chapter 274: The Affair of the Spy

coincidence."That's right, aren't you here to find my father" Hong Yue came to her senses.“If the young lady’s father is Hong Lin Alchemist, then it can’t be wrong.” Yu Zi Mo smiled, “Since it’s such..."No matter what, thanks to Senior Brother Lu, otherwise Luo Qian and I don't know how many times we would have fallen. " Su Qing could see that Lu Xia Tian didn't want to continue talking about this topic, so she wisely didn't say any more, got up and wanted to touch her storage bag, "By the way, I collected several Jinning fruits this time. I can't use that many myself, so I'll give Senior Brother Lu two."

"Me too, one should be enough for me." Luo Qian quickly responded accordingly.

"No, if you really want to thank me, agree to one thing." Lu Xia Tian shook his head. He already had two in his hand, and having more wouldn't be of much use. Although he could sell them for a lot of spirit stones, he could cultivate them himself within the barrier. As for Su Qing and Luo Qian, each time they used one, they lost one. For them, having one more Jin Gold Fruit in their hands would increase their chances of forming a golden core by a fraction."

"What's the matter Senior Brother Lu, just say it. As long as we can do it, we will never refuse." Luo Qian said seriously. He didn't expect that even with a temptation as big as the Golden Condensation Fruit, Lu Xia Tian could refuse. There was no regret on his face, and this kind of determination that wasn't swayed by external things was something he couldn't compare to.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

"Yes, whatever Senior Brother Lu says, the two of us will absolutely listen." Su Qing also nodded repeatedly. In her memory, even though Lu Xiaoteng had saved her several times and fought side-by-side with her, he always kept a distant attitude towards her. This was the first time he opened up to them about something.

"As for you coming to Xuan Ye City with me, everything I've seen and heard along the way must remain secret. You mustn't tell anyone, not even your master or closest relatives. Can you do that" Lu Xia Tian said.

"This, Senior Brother Lu, what are you worried about If my grandfather knew that you not only saved me this time, but also got injured for us, he would definitely be grateful to you. Finding a alchemist to refine the Golden Condensing Pill on your behalf is not impossible," Su Qing said in surprise.

"No need, I'm only at the middle stage of foundation building now. How far it is to the ninth layer of foundation building, I don't know yet. I'll figure out the matter of condensing the golden core myself. Now I only ask you, can you keep your mouths shut"

Lu Xia Tian stared intently at Luo Qian and Su Qing with a fierce gaze. The price he paid to save them, Luo Qian and Su Qing, was not small, especially exposing so much of his strength. As long as someone truly powerful put in the effort, they would eventually find him. For him, particularly those with power, could connect the events of the Jin Gu through their accounts to him. Both Luo Qian and Su Qing had Golden Core cultivators backing them, while he could only rely on himself. Not to mention his treasures, even the two Jin Gu obtained this time would sooner or later bring him endless trouble.

“Alright, I promise, even if my grandpa asked, I wouldn't tell.” Su Qing saw Lu Xiaoteng’s serious expression, and it didn’t seem like he was joking. She nodded and said.

"Me too, if I mention anything about Lu Senior Brother to anyone, I will surely be struck by lightning and thunder!"

Luo Qian swore without hesitation. Compared to the several times Lu Xiaotian had saved his life, keeping a secret was nothing. He also vaguely guessed Lu Xiaotian's predicament. But thinking of Lu Xiaotian’s formidable strength, he still chose to be low-key, with Lu Xiaotian’s current strength, in the entire Lingxiao Palace, it is estimated that no foundation-building cultivator could match him. Thinking back to his own former boastfulness when he had a little bit of strength, Luo Qian even felt ashamed at this moment.

"Well, as long as you can agree to this, I have no other demands." Lu Xia Tian nodded.

“By the way, Senior Brother Lu, how did you know that someone was intercepting us outside” Su Qing had recovered a lot since taking the Blue Frost Dragon Lily Pill. It truly was a holy medicine for healing in the Qi Refining period, and now her injuries were healing on their own without her having to deliberately adjust them. At least now when she spoke with Lu Xiaoteng, she felt no burden at all.

"By the way, I seem to have seen Senior Brother Lu following someone before and then coming back. At that time, you were following that person and saw something, weren't you" Su Qing suddenly patted her forehead.

"How did I not notice that" Luo Qian scratched his head.

“Back then, you were about to fight that red-haired boy, naturally there was no time to pay attention to your surroundings.” Su Qing smiled slightly and looked at Lu Xiaodao, “Senior Brother Lu, am I right”

“Well, I did follow that person all the way, but guess who I saw later” Lu Xiaodao said.

"I didn't expect Senior Brother Lu to be playing coy now, but since you ask like this, I assume we definitely know this person and it should be someone we remember recently. Could it be Hu Ruining" Su Qing frowned, a hint of suspicion in her voice.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Hu Ruining That's impossible!" Luo Qian looked at him with disbelief.

"It's him. I was hiding in the shadows and overheard their conversation. They were talking about intercepting anyone who entered or left, all for the Golden Fruit. It was strange to me why Hu Runing would be involved, but now I understand the prowess of the Flying Cavalry Tribe cultivators." Lu Xia Tian nodded calmly.

“According to my understanding, Hu Ruining has been in Lingxiao Palace for at least over twenty years. I didn't expect him to collude with the Flying Cavalry tribe. He really deserves to be killed!”

Luo Qian and Su Qing grew up in Lingxiao Palace since childhood. They had feelings for Lingxiao Palace. Hearing that Hu Ruining was actually a traitor, the two of them instantly had killing intent in their eyes.

“Lu senior brother, should we inform the Palace Master about this” Su Qing looked at Lu Xiaodao.

"You better tell your master or grandfather, but you can handle this yourselves. Don't involve me." Lu Xia Tian said, a tree attracts the wind, his last time for Lingxiao Palace found a fire-type spiritual stone vein, from Zhou Tong and Xuan Bing Men snatched from their mouths, especially the reward of condensing golden pills, has attracted some people's attention, if not later with the golden pill monk Xu Yunfang's public transaction, I am afraid that there would be no peace at this time. Now to establish another merit, even though he knew that he had no condensing golden pill on him, I was afraid that he would covet wealth. There are many ways to earn spirit stones, secretly through the Moon City side to refine some high-grade pills for people is also fine, there is no need to do such a publicity."

“Isn't it just because you're greedy and want to take all the credit for yourself” Su Qing said with a hint of displeasure in her voice. “Besides, since Hu Ruining is a spy sent by the Heavenly Firmament Realm into Lingxiao Palace, why not just kill him directly Why go through so much trouble”

"The overall strategy of the higher-ups is beyond our comprehension as foundation-building cultivators. You should report these matters upwards, perhaps they can devise a countermeasure and strike back hard at those extraterrestrial cultivators. However, all I can do is this much; how you decide to proceed is up to you." Lu Xiaoteng yawned, feeling rather tired after several consecutive battles and sustaining some injuries. Even someone as formidable as him felt weary at this point.

“That’s right, if we can use Hu Ruining as bait, maybe we can set a trap for the extraterrestrial cultivators in return.” Su Qing and Luo Qian’s eyes lit up at the same time. help you, so what are you happy about With your looks, I'd rather not bother.” Lu Xiaoteng wasn’t someone who could be easily brushed off with a few words."I disagree with that. You're saying we both...
