The person on the big tree was quickly transported to the hillside, and then the people on the roof were treated.
With the help of five wooden rafts, the transportation capacity was quite impressive. One person on the roof could be transported away with two or three wooden rafts. Gradually, there were fewer and fewer people in the village. At this time, the wooden rafts arrived at the back of the village, where there was a large house with people standing on the roof.
When the wooden rafts approached, Luo Bo suddenly trembled all over. Mi Xiaojing was next to him, also holding onto a wooden raft. He looked up and couldn’t help but be stunned.
Mi Xiaojing also recognized the people on the roof, Luo Bo’s family, including Luo Bo’s grandfather and a large group of people. When they saw the wooden rafts coming, they couldn’t help but cheer.
Luo Bo froze on the wooden raft.
His hands were trembling violently, and childhood nightmares came rushing back. Mi Xiaojing was only seven or eight meters away from Luo Bo. He flew over and grabbed his hand, saying, “Luo Bo, calm down!”
Luo Bo’s face turned pale. He looked at the people on the roof, then at Mi Xiaojing. After a while, he said, “Brother Xiao Mi, what should I do?”
Mi Xiaojing said, “Calm down. There are some things you must face on your own! You are already a cultivator now, and you have the ability to solve this problem.”
The large family on the roof also noticed that something was wrong. They stopped cheering and stared at the people on the wooden rafts. Then, someone suddenly exclaimed, “Isn’t this the little bastard? A freeloader…” He realized something was wrong and quickly shut up.
Just this sentence completely angered Mi Xiaojing. He turned around abruptly and shouted, “Who said that! Come out!” Then he flew into the air and looked down at everyone.
Luo Bo’s grandfather, the old man who was good at speaking, raised his hand and slapped the person who had just spoken, bowing and saying, “The children in our family don’t know any better. Please… please forgive us, Immortal!”
“Brother Xiao Mi, come down. I’ve made up my mind.”
Mi Xiaojing landed and looked at Luo Bo’s pale face with a heartache. He said, “No matter what decision you make, I will support you, brother!”
Luo Bo said, “Brother Xiao Mi, please save them. I don’t want to see them anymore…”
Mi Xiaojing was taken aback, and a relieved expression appeared on his face. Luo Bo’s choice, although unexpected, showed a hint of kindness. He didn’t seek revenge or rescue. This was already his most difficult decision.
Luo Bo said as he paddled the wooden raft towards another direction to continue rescuing people.
Only then did Mi Xiaojing fly back to his own wooden raft and let it approach the roof. He said, “You are lucky to meet a good kid like Luo Bo. Come up!”
Luo Bo’s grandfather had a look of shame on his face. He didn’t dare to say much. Seeing that Mi Xiaojing could fly into the air, he knew that Luo Bo was better off following him. He felt regretful in his heart. If they hadn’t treated this child cruelly in the past, perhaps he would have been the pillar of the family.
The whole family got on the wooden raft cautiously. No one dared to speak. They all sat down obediently and waited for the wooden raft to start.
Mi Xiaojing didn’t waste any words. He didn’t even want to talk to this family. Holding onto a wooden pole, he swung the wooden raft towards the hillside. Luo Bo’s grandfather wanted to say something several times, but in the end, he closed his mouth.
Mi Xiaojing also saw the ugly man who claimed to be Luo Bo’s father. He sat there uncomfortably, burying his head between his knees from time to time, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a while, the wooden raft reached the hillside. The whole family got off the wooden raft and onto the hillside. Luo Bo’s grandfather wanted to say something, but Mi Xiaojing waved his hand and said, “Don’t say anything. It’s already difficult enough for Luo Bo to save you. Live your own lives well and don’t bother him in the future.”
During the rescue, the heavy rain had completely stopped, and the rising water gradually receded after about half a day.
Mi Xiaojing brought Luo Bo and the others back to his own courtyard.
Seeing Luo Bo in a low mood, his friends tried to persuade him, but Mi Xiaojing said, “Let him be quiet, don’t disturb him.”
Luo Bo glanced gratefully at Mi Xiaojing and said, “I’m fine. I’m going to cultivate.”
Mi Xiaojing said, “Little Radish, when it’s time to let go, let go. If there’s something on your mind, don’t bury it.” He knew that this kind of persuasion was weak, but he still said it. Only by letting the little guy let go of his burdens could he walk the path of cultivation more easily.
Luo Bo nodded vigorously and said, “They are them, and I am me… Brother Xiao Mi, don’t worry.”
Mi Xiaojing said, “Everyone take a rest. Those who want to cultivate can go to the backyard, and those who don’t want to cultivate can rest.”
Zhang Ke walked out of the room and said, “Let’s eat first. We have something delicious today.”
Wei Fu, Mao Tou, and Da Zhu cheered and ran towards the kitchen on the side. Mi Xiaojing suddenly felt better and smiled as he followed them in.
The sect’s rescue operation quickly came to an end. With the cessation of the heavy rain, the water level rapidly receded, and the sect once again ordered preparations for battle.There was no other way. The mountain-protecting sword array of the sect had been shut down, leaving the entire sect exposed and its danger level drastically increased. Even if many disciples were injured, even if they were exhausted to the extreme, at this critical moment of life and death, the sect could only order to prepare for battle.
This time, even Mi Xiaojing was no exception. He had to refine a batch of Spirit Pills and provide them to the sect for free. These were Spirit Pills used in the Elemental Infant stage, all materials were supplied by the sect, but there was no reward. It was considered a sect task.
Before leaving, Mi Xiaojing was worried about Luo Bo and the others at home, fearing that Hong Qing would take this opportunity to attack directly. He simply set up the Qingmu flag at home. Once the Qingmu flag was activated, he would immediately know that there was danger. By then, it would be too late to rush back.
This sect task was a must-complete. Mi Xiaojing knew he couldn’t resist, so after handling everything at home, he rushed to the Pill Room of Grass-Benevolence Hall.
Not only did Mi Xiaojing have a task, but Chen Shouyi, Hong Qing, Li Huai, and even those stewards who were not good at alchemy, were also required to hand in a certain amount of Spirit Pills. The sect actually still had a lot of Spirit Pills stored, but once the war started, there would not be enough Spirit Pills, especially various healing pills.
Soon, Mi Xiaojing arrived at the cave entrance outside the Pill Room.
He saw Hong Qing standing there at a glance, with Chen Shouyi next to him, Li Huai and Guan Shangli standing a little further away, and Mu Hengyuan standing at the entrance of the cave.
Seeing Mi Xiaojing falling from the sky, Mu Hengyuan stepped forward and said, “Xiao Mi is here, come to me.”
A hint of jealousy flashed in Chen Shouyi’s eyes, but on the surface, he still looked as if nothing had happened. Only Hong Qing, when he saw Mi Xiaojing, looked like he wanted to eat him, staring fiercely. But as soon as Mi Xiaojing’s gaze swept over, he immediately turned his face away, no longer looking at him.
Mu Hengyuan smiled at Mi Xiaojing. As for Mi Xiaojing, the attitudes of the elders were very consistent, that was to seriously cultivate him, give him the best resources, the best treatment. If Mi Xiaojing could grow into an Alchemy Grandmaster, then he would be the hidden strength of the Heart Sect. (To be continued.)
