Chapter 294
Zhong Xian said so, but it was not easy to determine the corresponding cage based on the restrictions left on the key, and it was very mentally exhausting.
Selfishly, he decided to grab a few more keys and make a few more trips.
Unexpectedly, Zun Jin and Yu Xi had already tacitly divided the key into four parts, and each took his own part.
"No need for brother to help me share the burden, I can do it myself."
Yu Xi saw what Zhong Xian was thinking, looked up at him, and insisted, "But let's split Second Brother's share between us, right?"
Jizhi was scratching his head and staring at the key on the cabinet. He didn't know what to do. He couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried. He could only squat on the ground and look at the two of them pitifully.
It's over, it's over. What my sister and the others are going to do must be very important. What if he messes it up...
Seeing him like this, Zhong Xian sighed in frustration, took two steps forward, picked him up, and placed him next to Yu Xi, saying:
"Idiot, protect Xiao Xi'er."
"what?"
Jizhi never expected that Zhong Xian, the bad guy who always competed with him for his sister, would actually take the initiative to let him get closer to his sister!
He didn't have the brain to think about anything messy, he just flew up happily, jumped up from the ground and said:
"Okay! I'll protect my sister! Don't worry, Zhong Xian!"
Zhong Xian was very worried.
What's more, sending Jizhi to Xiao Xier is even more painful than killing him.
But he had no way to refuse Xiao Xier, so he could only reluctantly let Jizhi accompany Xiao Xier.
Yu Xi looked at Zun Jin again and said, "Zun Jin, you have to be careful too."
Zun Jin raised the sword in his hand and said with a tragic look on his face: "I still have one gold, fifteen taels of silver and three hundred coins in my small treasury. I will try my best not to die before this money is spent."
Yu Xi: “…Okay.”
Seeing that Yu Xi was still worried about him, Zun Jin bent down and touched her head, saying, "Don't worry about me, Yu Xi. Although I am a mortal, it won't be that easy for me to get into trouble."
She was very glad that she came to Huanghui City and met Yu Xi.
Otherwise, she might never know that there are so many people in Yuanshan Sect who need help.
Zhong Xian coughed heavily, and when Zun Jin looked over, his eyes were cold, signaling Zun Jin not to touch Xiao Xier.
Seeing this, Zun Jin pursed his lips and rubbed Yu Xi's head again.
Zhong Xian suddenly smiled, but there was a hint of sharpness in his words as he said, "Hey...you and Xiao Xi'er are not related at all, so it's better not to get so close. Being too familiar with others can sometimes cause trouble."
Zun Jin replied calmly: "Yu Xi is my friend."
"I'm Yu Xi's brother. Compared to a friend, a brother cares more about his sister."
"Then if we count by age, I can also be the elder sister."
"I understand that Xiao Xi'er is popular, but any random cat or dog on the street would also want to be her sister. As Xiao Xi'er's favorite brother, I'm really troubled. I wonder if you have any ideas?"
"Then I can only hope that my brother won't be so petty and be more generous. Yu Xi is so outstanding. When she grows up, it won't be too much to build a three-hall-and-six-yard house here for me."
"Then you, an outsider, won't have to worry about it."
Zun Jin said that Zhong Xian was narrow-minded, so Zhong Xian told Zun Jin that she was just an outsider who was meddling in other people's business.
War is about to break out.
Yu Xi looked at Zhong Xian and Zun Jin in confusion. Although both of them spoke in a calm tone, he somehow smelled the smell of gunpowder, as if they were arguing.
Seeing that Zun Jin was still about to speak, Yu Xi quickly said:
"Brother, Zunjin, let's go!"
She felt that if they continued arguing, they might start fighting in the next second.
Zhong Xian naturally listened to Yu Xi, put away the part of the key that he needed and said, "Xiao Xi'er, protect yourself."
Zun Jin had no objection.
Yu Xi quickly pulled Ji Zhi out first.
The door you are looking for is hidden in the cloud and fog array inside the building. The cloud and fog array is a formation specially used for concealment. It places an entire floor in an illusion and divides the space into four parts, with two doors behind each part.
If an outsider breaks in directly, he will see a spiral corridor and will never reach the end and will not be able to find his destination.
Fortunately, the entrance to the corridor is the center of the formation. The monk guarding the entrance was killed by Zhong Xian early on. As long as Yu Xi enters from the entrance, she will not be affected by the illusion of the cloud and fog formation and can clearly find the door she is looking for.
Who would have thought that just as she was preparing to open the first door, she suddenly saw a door appear out of thin air at the end of the corridor in the cloud and mist.
The ninth door?
She immediately held her breath and hid in a high place with Ji Zhi, concealing her figures by using the illusory stairs in the cloud array.
Then, a group of monks suddenly came in from outside and entered the ninth door in a mighty manner.
These monks all seemed to be in a good mood, and their voices were filled with joy as they spoke:
"I didn't expect we could actually capture Su Xianyun this time. I heard he's very handsome, and just looking at him can reduce our demonic barriers. I don't know if it's really that effective."
"I've met him a few times before. You'll understand once you see him in person. He's truly stunning, but unfortunately, he's a disaster. The Su family wishes they had never had a son like him. I don't know if Su Changtian and the others succeeded in placing the restriction on Su Xianyun. Otherwise, he would be the third young master of the demon world now. I really wouldn't dare touch him..."
As they talked, they entered the ninth door. Yu Xi then realized that Su Xianyun was not among the eight doors, but was hiding in the ninth door that even Feng Changfan didn't know about.
She subconsciously wanted to rush into the ninth door, but after calming down and carefully checking the keys in her hand, she found that none of them were for the ninth door.
Just at this moment, a door near her opened, and two monks pushing boxes walked out. They were stained with some dyes with a strange smell and looked a little irritable.
"What bad luck! Another one died! This is already the fifth this month. The quality of canvas is really getting worse and worse. I just pinched his neck and he died."
"Elder Song is really something. There are many good-looking people in small sects. Why do you always arrest these mortals? They die faster than the last. Then our cultivation speed will be slowed down, and we will be embarrassed at the Immortal Sect Conference. Then we will get nothing from the secret realm. I don't know what the result of this competition will be."
The two were complaining when they suddenly heard footsteps behind them. Turning around, they saw a very beautiful girl who looked like a fairy following behind them.
Oh my god, who sent such a super high-quality product without notifying them?
Just by looking at Yu Xi's face they knew she was a rare commodity, and if she could live to adulthood she would surely fetch a high price.
But why is this rare creature not locked in a cage and is running around outside?
