The Supreme White Works Slowly Cultivating Immortality Slowly Cultivating Immortality Volume 1 Chapter 43 Forty-Three, Fearless

  Xiao Yao's hands and feet were cold, her face expressionless as she watched Zi Dong step into the void from the spatial rift. The immortal aura brought by Baozi was still lingering nearby. Suddenly, her eyes sank, and a fierce killing intent burst out!

  Fight, suppress or flee?!!

  "Hiss, how can there be such a heavy killing aura," Zidong gazed at the woman in front of him with her sword drawn and eyes gleaming, a hint of imperceptible darkness flashing across his eyes before quickly being replaced by an ordinary smile. "Rong Rou's appearance has always been ordinary, now that she's putting on this fierce image, it's really making people tremble with fear."

  "A fellow Daoist who comes uninvited, and yet still expects me to entertain him with tea." For the first time, Xiao Yao's face was completely devoid of a smile, his entire being exuding an aura of sternness.

  All practitioners cultivate the Great Way and encounter opportunities, more or less having some unmentionable secrets. Once these secrets are exposed, a slight carelessness can lead to fatal consequences, so no one wants their private matters to be revealed in public. She is no exception, this place was once her own domain, where she felt at ease, but due to long-term comfort, she relaxed her guard and even forgot that the void is not her personal property. She only thought that true immortals can enter and exit the void at will, but never considered whether the Spirit King of the Immortal Realm also has the ability to tear through the void!

  "If you had come in a straightforward and honest manner, how could you have seen such a wonderful scene? Besides...” Zi Dong's lips curled up slightly as he stretched out his hand to make a light slash on the void that had opened up, instantly closing off the passageway between the two places. "The void is not privately owned."

  Seeing him easily close the entrance to the void, Xiao Yao's back couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, but her face didn't reveal even a hint of fear as she said: "The void is indeed not my private property, but fellow daoist, you first intruded into my cave, and then entered the void from my cave. Can this be considered uninvited?"

  "Uh..." Zidong's words got stuck, and he smiled awkwardly, "I suddenly remembered I had something to say, and in my haste, I forgot to knock. Hmm, don't mind me then. As for Ruo Rou's secret..." He deliberately drew out the last syllable and winked at Xiao Yao, "Don't worry, I won't spill it."

  But at this moment, Xiao Yao didn't have the heart to banter with him, her spirit was in a state of high tension, she was hesitating whether or not to take action. Logically speaking, at times like these, it's either kill or be killed, and the worst-case scenario: she might belong to the latter.

  She was still calculating on this side, but the sword-toothed leopard on the other side couldn't hold back anymore. A tiger pounced and stood in front of her, its ferocious aura heavier than Xiao Yao's. "What are you waiting for?! If we don't settle this person, once he leaks our secrets, it will be a never-ending trouble!"

  Zi Dong smiled and ignored the leopard's roar, his eyes fixed on Xiao Yao from start to finish, his words solemn: "I said I wouldn't betray, and I won't betray."

  The leopard saw Xiao Yao's expressionless face, still hesitating, and made a low humming noise before launching the attack without hesitation! However, just as it was about to pounce on Zi Dong, it was intercepted by a dark-colored ruler.

  Xiao Yao!

  He was furious and let out a loud roar, turning his head to glare at the woman who had blocked his way.

  "Get out of here, don't make trouble."

  Xiao Yao's voice was soft and calm, but her eyes were filled with a turbulent undercurrent that was the complete opposite of this serenity. Her pupils were as black as night, symbolizing tenacity, fearlessness, and an unwavering determination to cut down all obstacles.

  Such a beautiful woman, the leopard had never seen before, and it really stopped in its tracks, waiting for her next move.

  "Open up the void, let's go." As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Yao grabbed the leopard's tail and pulled it back beside her.

  After waiting for half a day, it was waiting for such an order. The leopard was furious and struggled with a look of resentment: "Open the door! Let me go and kill this guy! If you let go of such a scourge out of sympathy, you will regret it later!"

  "What face do you have to say I?" Xiao Yao completely ignored its flailing small arms and short legs, "If you can really defeat him, why would the ban on the outside of the cave be broken without a sound? How could we fall into this predicament today? Face reality!"

  The leopard's face was thoroughly discolored, its teeth clenched tightly, and its face was full of humiliation. Xiao Yao wasn't really blaming it, but rather telling the truth in a more hurtful tone, that the other party could break through the seal without either of them noticing, and hide from their divine consciousness, their cultivation must be much higher than theirs, and the only way to win is to die!

  After the leopard's commotion, Xiao Yao gradually regained her composure. In the face of absolute strength, she didn't think that her small tricks and schemes would be of any use. If such a strong person really had the intention to kill, she was afraid that she wouldn't have been able to report to the King of Hell earlier. It was also because she couldn't sense any malice or killing intent from the opponent that if they were to discover her secret and move to kill her for it, she would be disdainful and not have enough confidence. This had nothing to do with the strength of the opponent; unless the other party wanted her life, or was an evil cultivator who was sworn enemies since ancient times, she would never lightly take a life. Unreasonable slaughter could not stimulate potential, nor ignite an unyielding will, and fighting would only discount her strength, even affecting her Dao heart.

  She is Xiang Yao, who endures hardships and tedious cultivation without complaint, gains opportunities in crises, and tempers her will. Without the blessing of good fortune or supernatural objects that can change fate, every bit of strength she has is accumulated through years of hard work, relying on real efforts to fight for it, no one can take it away from her, there's nothing to be feared!

  If Zidong exposed this matter, the worst result would be being hunted down by the True Immortal Realm. From having her cultivation destroyed to restarting from scratch, experiencing multiple cycles of life and death, she had long been accustomed to putting her head on the line to take risks. After all, it wasn't the first time she was being hunted down. At most, it would be a bit more troublesome, and she would have to hide and flee to survive. Even so, this was still much better than having an uncommunicative heart or deviated moral integrity.

  After clearing her mind, Xiao Yao's expression eased up a bit. Looking at Bao Zhi who had yet to recover from the shock, she couldn't help but feel a headache: This stubborn guy was sometimes really troublesome when he couldn't turn things around.

  "Open void!" She shook the leopard in her hand and repeated again.

  This time, the leopard didn't entangle with her again. With a single stroke of his hand, a crack appeared in the void, just enough for one person to pass through. Xiao Yao didn't look at Zi Dong anymore and turned around to leave the void.

  But unexpectedly, Zidong moved even faster than her and with another wave of his hand, the passage was sealed once again.

  "Didn't you fellow Taoists say earlier that the void is not a private property of any individual? What qualifications do you have to block my way?"

  The oppressive atmosphere was suddenly released, and Xiao Yao was truly angry now, her entire body filled with murderous intent! She could tolerate him making excuses for his mistake, but she couldn't tolerate him repeatedly challenging her bottom line! If pushed to the limit, she didn't mind using her immortal energy to fight him, even if it meant dying together!

  Zi Dong knew he had annoyed her, so he smiled faintly and didn't say anything else out of tune. He went straight to the point: "I just have some words to say to Chong Rou, no malice intended."

  Xiao Yao coldly gazed at him: "Fellow Daoist seems to have something to say every time you see me, can't you bother to finish speaking this once?"

  "Good!" Zi Dong cleared his throat and said seriously: "I observe that Rong Rou has a good temperament, talent, and appearance. How about becoming my apprentice?"
