Amongst Cultivators, I Stand Above All

178 I Can’t Break the Formation, but I Can Save People

When Dong Xi saw that someone had replied so quickly, she immediately perked up and quickly replied.

[It’s a sealing array!]

The other party immediately replied.

[Someone’s sealed inside?]

Dong Xi replied.

[That’s right!]

At this moment, she received a message.

[Are you going to break the formation, or are you just going to save the people?]

Dong Xi sent a message in confusion.

[What’s the difference?]

Wasn’t saving people the same as breaking the formation? At this moment, Dong Xi saw that there was a new message on the jade slip. She hurriedly looked at the jade slip. That person had sent a message.

[I can’t break the formation, but I can save people sealed in there.]

According to the information about this person, Dong Xi could easily analyze that this person had not reached the Nascent Soul stage, but he was able to save the people sealed by the array formation. He must have something up his sleeve.

Dong Xi also decided to give it a try and immediately sent a message.

[Let’s try it, then? There’s a village next to Fotai City. I’ll wait for you under the willow tree at the village entrance!]

The other party immediately replied.

[It just so happens that I’m nearby as well. I still have a mission here. See you in three days.]

Dong Xi immediately replied.

[May I know how to address you, Immortal master?]

The other party replied with two words.

[Kong Xing.]

Dong Xi immediately got up and went to the Mission Hall to rent a spirit tool that could be used to transplant plants. Wang Ying saw that Dong Xi was not willing to give up, so she reminded her to be careful of her own safety when helping others. Dong Xi thanked her, put away the magical artifact, and flew back to the village where Liu Qing was.

Because she had already agreed on a time with Kong Xing, Dong Xi wasn’t in a hurry this time.

Three days later, Dong Xi arrived at the village entrance. The sky had already turned dark.

Liu Qing saw Dong Xi and immediately appeared. Liu Qing shouted, “Xiaoxi! You’re back so soon!”

“I’ll find someone to help.” Dong Xi nodded and said, “I’ll let him see if there’s any way.”

“Xiaoxi, you’re amazing,” Liu Qing said happily. “So many people have come to offer incense to Ah Leng these past two days.”

“These people owe it to Ah Leng,” Dong Xi said.

After that, Dong Xi sat down and said, “The weather is great today. Wake me up when someone comes over!”

Liu Qing nodded.

Today was the full moon, and every full moon, Dong Xi’s cultivation would be faster.

Dong Xi did not know how long she had been cultivating. She sensed the fluctuation of spirit Qi around her and slowly opened her eyes.

As soon as she looked up, she saw Ah Leng and Liu Qing sitting by the entrance. When Liu Qing saw that Dong Xi had woken up, she said in surprise, “Xiaoxi, Ah Leng didn’t want me to wake you up. She said that you’ll go berserk.”

Dong Xi looked at Ah Leng. Ah Leng had a smile on her face as she nodded.

“Someone’s coming,” Liu Qing shouted.

Dong Xi raised his head to look at the village entrance and saw a person walking over from afar.

Dong Xi was stunned for a moment. He saw a shining head under the moonlight.

This guy was actually a young monk?

The little monk walked to the barrier at the village entrance and stopped for a moment before walking in.

“You’re Kong Xing?” Dong Xi immediately stood up and asked.

“Amitabha, I’m Kong Xing,” the little monk said with his palms pressed together.

After he finished, he looked at Dong Xi and asked, “You are Dong Xi?”

“That’s right, it’s me.” Dong Xi nodded and said, “Young Master, do you really have a way to save the people?”

One could not blame Dong Xi for being suspicious, Kong Xing was simply too young.

Kong Xing did not answer, but asked directly, “Where’s the formation?”

Dong Xi raised her hand and pointed at the well. Kong Xing looked over, and as expected, he saw two demons sitting at the well.

“You want to save her?” Kong Xing asked immediately.

“That’s right!” Dong Xi nodded.

Kong Xing immediately said in confusion, “But… This is a demon…”

“What’s wrong with being a demon?” Dong Xi immediately asked. “She did not hurt anyone, and she was trapped here for a thousand years. She also raised the people here for a thousand years. What did she do wrong?”

Kong Xing felt that what Dong Xi said was right. Dong Xi continued, “I didn’t want these people to run out of water, so I came over to help them. But now, I’ve been trapped in the well by these people. Little Master is a member of the Buddhist sect. Does the Buddha have to differentiate the races when he edifies them?”

Kong Xing was tongue-tied for a moment, “Then…”

Dong Xi did not continue to say anything, only looking at Kong Xing.

In the summer, the willow branches swayed in the breeze. The two humans and two demons under the tree looked at each other.

Liu Qing looked at Ah Leng and wanted to say something, but Ah Leng shook her head. Liu Qing pursed her lips and lowered her head.

After a long time, a fallen leaf fell and landed on Kong Xing’s shoulder.

Kong Xing, who had closed his eyes in deep thought, seemed to be disturbed by this leaf and opened his eyes.

Dong Xi looked at Kong Xing with a smile on his face. Dong Xi asked,”How is it? Little Master, have you thought it through?”
