Chapter 231 Gray Peony, Pink Lychee
Chapter 231 Gray Peony, Pink Lychee
"Phew, I finally dodged it."
"These Cloud Riders are like mad dogs, they're incredibly good at chasing."
Back in the secluded courtyard, Green Hibiscus gasped for breath. He had really risked his life to run away from the Cloud Cavalry.
"Seriously, how did we get exposed?"
"I was very careful and deliberately concealed my tracks, so how did the Cloud Cavalry find me?" Green Hibiscus was completely baffled.
After reviewing the situation, he couldn't find where he had gone wrong.
So what exactly happened?
"Could it be that I've been neglecting my training and haven't even noticed the flaws that have appeared?" Green Hibiscus exclaimed in surprise.
"No, no, I must practice more so that I can become Lord Tree King's right-hand man and serve him with my life." Green Hibiscus secretly made up her mind that she must not let Lord Tree King down.
At this moment, the courtyard door opened, and March 7th and the others walked in.
Seeing that it was them, Green Hibiscus was finally relieved.
"What's wrong with you?" March 7 asked, feigning innocence.
The two people next to them were trying hard to suppress their laughter.
"Ugh, don't even mention it. Those Cloud Cavalry soldiers were like dogs. I almost got caught by them. Luckily, I'm quick on my feet and have some divine protection, so I didn't get caught," Green Hibiscus said proudly.
"Ahem, shouldn't you give some kind of response?" Xing nudged Yunqi Jun Erniu and asked in a low voice.
"What kind of reaction? We should love what we do," Erniu said firmly.
“Well, the Interstellar Peace Corporation really suits you.” Xing sighed.
I never expected to run into someone as shameless as you.
"Thank you for the compliment." Erniu scratched his head sheepishly.
"By the way, are you all alright?" Green Hibiscus asked worriedly.
These are all future elites, inheriting the secret teachings of the Medicine King! Nothing can happen to them.
"Uh...isn't that obvious?" Xing gave a deadpan look. "We're already standing here, what else could possibly happen?"
"Ahem, that's true..." Green Hibiscus scratched her head sheepishly.
"No, no, what I mean is... you've all completed your trials, haven't you?"
Green Hibiscus swallowed nervously.
Damn it, I was so caught up in the Cloud Cavalry's pursuit that I forgot to monitor their trial.
“Of course it’s done,” Xing said naturally.
"Me too, sigh, and they even looked down on me." Erniu said dejectedly.
"I, I, of course I finished it too. Such a simple thing, this young lady can do it with ease." March 7's words were a little hesitant, and even her expression was a little unnatural.
"Really?" Green Hibiscus narrowed her eyes, scrutinizing the three of them.
On March 7th, I started to feel nervous, and my fingers even trembled a little.
"You! Something's not right. Tell me, are you done or not?" Green Hibiscus suddenly opened her eyes and glared fiercely at Star.
"Me?" Xing pointed to himself, several question marks appearing above his head.
"Phew, that scared me to death..." March 7th silently breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's right, it's you!" Green Hibiscus looked at her for a lifetime.
Her expression was so unnatural; something was definitely wrong.
On the contrary, the pink hair from before looked much more natural and there was definitely no problem.
"Are you kidding me? Why would I need to lie?" Xing raised his stick without saying a word.
Sensing the dangerous aura emanating from the stick, Green Hibiscus swallowed hard.
“Alright, I believe you. After all, joining the Medicine King's secret lineage requires utmost caution,” Green Hibiscus said sincerely.
After he finished speaking, the courtyard fell silent.
Green Hibiscus coughed awkwardly, trying to ease the tension, before continuing:
"Since all three of you have passed the trial, congratulations on becoming a cultivator."
"Now I'll give you all your code names."
Green Hibiscus came up to Xing. "Hmm... with gray hair, you can be called Gray Peony."
"You... have pink hair, and your name is Pink Lychee."
Finally, Green Hibiscus came to stand before Erniu of the Cloud Cavalry, her head bowed in deep thought.
"As for you, since you're wearing full silver armor, let's call you Silver Branch."
"Silver Branch? That's a nice code name!" March 7th exclaimed in surprise.
I feel that the code name of the Cloud Cavalry is much better than my own.
"Unlike me, I grow fruit, pink lychees? Just hearing that makes me feel awful," March 7th complained.
"Ahem, pink lychee, it's a kind of pink rose..." Green Hibiscus said somewhat awkwardly.
"Ah? Is that so...? Okay, I missed you..." March 7 scratched his head sheepishly.
"Alright, now that we've chosen our code names, let's split up and meet up elsewhere later to avoid being noticed. Goodbye."
After saying that, Green Hibiscus vanished from the courtyard in a flash.
The three remaining on the spot exclaimed once again, "Truly elites!"
Outside the other wall, Green Hibiscus lay sprawled on the ground, its face covered in a clump of spun thread.
"Sigh, it turns out I still can't improve my skills through practice alone. I need to practice more diligently from now on... Wait, what's this?"
Green Hibiscus wiped the brown stuff off her face and put it in her mouth to taste it.
His expression changed drastically.
"Who the hell put this snagging thread here?"
"Wait, which dog pooped here?"
.....................................
"Reporting, Lord Tree King!"
After wiping the dog poop off her face, Green Hibiscus returned to Eve's door.
"Huh? What brings you here again?"
Eve, who was inside the room, put down her game console and asked a question with some impatience.
"I have some very good news to report!" Green Hibiscus said excitedly.
"What? Good news?" Eve frowned slightly.
No, it must have been those three who passed the trial.
Impossible, impossible. No one could possibly pass a trial they set themselves.
How could the Cloud Cavalry possibly let go of the people who passed down the secrets of the Medicine King?
"Lord Tree King, the good news is that those three have passed the final trial and have joined our Medicine King's Secret Sect!"
"I, Green Hibiscus, would like to express my gratitude to the Tree King for securing three elites for our Medicine King's Secret Technique!"
“No, I…” Eve was speechless.
No, they actually passed it?
Are the Yunqi Army all useless?
"In addition, their codenames have been confirmed: Gray Peony, Pink Lychee, and Silver Branch!" Green Hibiscus continued.
"Hmm? Grey peony and pink lychee?" Eve frowned slightly.
"Why do I feel like I've seen these two color schemes somewhere before?"
