Chapter 2262: Chapter 2259: Not Even as Good as a Little Girl
The others didn’t hesitate for long and made their decision. No one backed down; they all chose to continue the adventure. Having come this far, there’s no reason to quit halfway. Everyone knows this journey is dangerous; if they were afraid, they would have given up at Langya Pavilion.
"Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers." Elder Yan said faintly, but without much praise. "Prepare well; gather at the foot of the mountain tomorrow morning."
After speaking, Elder Yan left, leaving behind a group of contemplative young people. Everyone had their thoughts spinning, including Lin Tian. Perhaps this would be everyone’s last night.
"Lin Tian, maybe we shouldn’t go?" Xiao Manxuan looked up at Lin Tian, eyes filled with reluctance.
She wasn’t afraid, but she didn’t want Lin Tian to get hurt or her sister to get hurt. In her heart, Lin Tian and her sister were more important than herself.
Lin Tian laughed, reached out and touched her hair. The little girl didn’t dodge, and even the Miss unusually didn’t stop him or look at him with the eyes of a lecher.
"In heaven and on earth, we fight side by side." Lin Tian extended his hand, smiling slightly.
Only the Xiao sisters understood these words; in Hell, Xiao Manxuan and Lin Tian fought together, faced danger together. In Lin Tian’s eyes, Xiao Manxuan wasn’t a vase; she had strength, a strength that could even reverse an inevitably lost battle.
"Fight side by side!" Xiao Manxuan nodded vigorously, extended her hand to join with Lin Tian’s, and then the Miss also joined in, looking determined.
"Humph!" Ling Shuiyao snorted arrogantly but still extended her hand, looking at Lin Tian provocatively, with a hint of not wanting to lose.
"Me too, me too..." Huang Xiaopang shouted, sticking out a large chubby hand.
The beauties scattered instantly like birds, the fatty lunged into empty space, only touching Lin Tian’s hand.
Ghost crossed his arms, looked at him sideways, and said humorously, "You’re daring enough to take advantage of our Misses. Their hands can only be touched by Brother Tian. Be smart in the future."
These words made the Xiao sisters blush. The two women glared fiercely, but they were staring at Lin Tian. Lin Tian looked innocent, thinking why are you glaring at me, it wasn’t me who said it.
"Haha, Brother Yun Tian misunderstood. I just wanted to touch Mr. Lin’s hand, oh no, it’s hands meeting, hands meeting." The honest fatty hurriedly explained, but made mistakes in haste, then urgently tried to correct them, almost making Ghost laugh to death.
"Scram! I’m not interested in men." Lin Tian also glared fiercely at the two guys, feeling they were chaos-seeking troublemakers.
"Hahaha..." Ghost laughed even harder, and even the fatty started laughing.
"Lin Tian truly is contagious; such a dangerous task, yet his companions feel so relaxed." Ling Shuiyao sighed slightly.
Because she noticed that over by Ji Zimo, it was the exact opposite, everyone looking serious, with a mountain-like burden in their hearts.
The Miss laughed and said, "You’ll understand when you spend more time with him. That’s just how he is, when you want to cry, he makes you laugh; when you’re laughing, he can make you cry, making you want to hit him, but you can’t get mad at him."
Everyone dispersed, the mountains under the night were extremely quiet, but the group in the pavilion inside couldn’t find peace in their hearts.
Yet Lin Tian realized that tonight was the quietest night in the pavilion, with no night travelers scouting for secrets.
Night gradually dispersed, light once again enveloped this mountainous ice plain. With no alarm clocks or roosters crowing, the participants appeared punctually outside the pavilion.
Shen Lin, Ji Zimo, Yuwen Xingjian, Ling Shuiyao...
Everyone was fully armed, Shen Lin’s black sword, Ji Zimo’s Sky Soaring Sword, Yuwen Xingjian’s Sky Halberd, Ling Shuiyao’s Mo Ye Sword...
These divine weapons seemed to sense their owner’s heaviness, with a sense of killing intent permeating the air.
Lin Tian was the most carefree, carrying just a backpack, without any equipped weapons. Of course, what they didn’t know was that the metal bracelet was the Heavenly Tribulation Sword.
This was also what puzzled Ji Zimo and others. Clearly, Lin Tian had no weapons on him, yet he could summon the Heavenly Tribulation Sword at critical moments; even Daoist methods couldn’t achieve that.
At this time, the Xiao sisters also walked out of the pavilion, the Miss holding the Hua Ying Sword, wearing an ice silk long dress and of course, the invisible Black Gold Silk Inner Armor.
Thinking of this inner armor, Lin Tian felt a bit agitated because the design was truly sexy.
The Second Miss carried a long wooden box on her back. The little girl was already quite tall, yet the wooden box took up most of her height, larger and wider than all sword boxes.
Such a shape attracted everyone’s attention; they were heading to a dangerous place, besides essential gear and rations, everyone was traveling light, carrying such a large wooden box was as if tying one’s own hands and feet.
So, they were very curious as to what was inside the box, something so important it had to be brought along; could it be a peerless weapon?
"Let me." Lin Tian casually reached out, and Xiao Manxuan naturally handed it over to him, their actions were so skilled and natural as if they had cooperated countless times.
Lin Tian didn’t care what Ji Zimo and the others were thinking, he carried the qin box, and with the beauties and Ghost, headed down the mountain.
Upon reaching the foot of the mountain, Yan Bei was already there, seemingly waiting for a long time, yet Elder Yan was nowhere to be seen.
Lin Tian was about to greet when suddenly a voice came from the mountain, "Wait for me..."
The voice sounded slightly childish yet extremely ethereal. Lin Tian knew it was Yan Lingling. Indeed, a white shadow approached quickly, in the blink of an eye, reaching Lin Tian, with the wind brought by the shadow causing the trees by the roadside to rustle.
Yan Lingling jumped off Bai’s back, smiling brightly, "I’m coming too."
"Ling’er, we’re going to Death Valley, not for fun, it’s too dangerous." Shen Lin frowned, speaking to stop her.
Honestly, Lin Tian’s first reaction was also to stop her because the little girl was only fourteen years old, giving the impression of being too weak.
But thinking of her strength and of the Snow Leopard Bai’s strength, Lin Tian did not speak.
Yan Lingling glanced at Shen Lin proudly, "You can go, why can’t I? Can you run faster than Bai? Can you beat him?"
The little girl was so straightforward, not giving Shen Lin any face in front of everyone. As expected, Shen Lin’s face twitched, looking rather unnatural.
Those present wanted to laugh but dared not, because they also feared being mocked by the little girl, since everyone had less strength than the little girl, even less than a Snow Leopard, feeling very ashamed as older brothers and sisters.
Yan Bei didn’t refute Yan Lingling’s words, clearly having allowed the little girl.
In contrast, he turned his gaze toward the wooden box on Lin Tian’s back, full of curiosity: "I’ve always seen you carrying a wooden box, I’m really curious, what’s inside?"
His thoughts were the same as everyone else’s; carrying such a cumbersome wooden box would affect battles in action.
Lin Tian didn’t hide it, replied casually, "Just an ancient qin."
"Kunlun Mountain, Death Valley, unpredictable and highly dangerous, yet you still carried an ancient qin, thinking it’s a sightseeing trip? Don’t drag us down." Shen Lin said coldly.
