C693 No One else

Zhong Ming did not speak for a long time, he did not know what he was thinking, but he could not care less about guessing, all of his thoughts were on Yu Yuqing, and the wait made him feel as though he was sitting on pins and needles, and he would need to stand up and take a look outside after a while, in a short period of time, he was unable to endure it any longer.

At this time, Zhong Ming also came back to reality. Seeing this, he felt that it was too funny and revealed a smile on his face. Zou Jiaxuan was so embarrassed that he quickly explained and sat down.

"Since ancient times, heroes all feel bad for beauties, so little friend Zou doesn't need to be shy. For a talented woman like Yu Yuqing, it's worth it." Zhong Ming sipped his Spirit Tea and said calmly.

"Senior, it's not what you think, I …" Zou Jiaxuan was at a loss what to do.

At this time, Yu Yuqing leisurely walked over, accompanied by a servant girl. She was dressed in all white with many green lotuses, as if she was a blooming lotus flower, which made people's eyes light up.

"Yuqing has come late. I am here to replace the wine with tea. Thank you, Senior, and Brother Zou for saving my life." Yu Yuqing entered as if he had met a light breeze, allowing him to feel relaxed. He then brought tea to the two of them.

Zou Jiaxuan, on the other hand, was happily gulping down the tea, and was so happy that he could not taste the taste of the tea.

Zhong Ming only smiled faintly, "This little girl is still young, she has done her job steadily and there is no mistake."

Yu Yuqing felt a headache seeing Zou Jiaxuan's appearance.

Yu Yuqing was very interested in Zhong Ming. To be able to reach Foundation Establishment at such a young age, he must be of an extraordinary background. While chatting, he would unintentionally ask about it, and Zhong Ming laughed at her.

Yu Yuqing, I wonder if Zhong Ming is really here to help me, or if he has a grudge with those people. Using this opportunity to suppress them and gain my goodwill, is his goal the same as those people?

"Senior, here are some formations and magic tools that I refined. I would like to see if they can be used to thank senior for saving Yuqing." Zou Jiaxuan interrupted.

Zhong Ming was a little surprised. He was first stunned, then smiled gratefully at Zou Jiaxuan. This made him so happy that he couldn't find the north.

Don't worry, I won't let you help me for nothing. As a reward, I can give Miss Yu the spiritual herbs that I was supposed to refine for concocting. Although it won't be a thousand years, it's still over eight hundred years old. Zhong Ming's words made the two of them look at each other.

"Senior is truly willing." Zou Jiaxuan was the first to stand up excitedly as he said excitedly.

This was a Spirit Grass that could cure his lover, how could he not be excited, even Yu Yuqing could not remain calm, and started to become agitated as well.

After her expression changed several times, she steeled her heart and said, "Senior is actually willing to part with the spirit medicine, I don't know what you need my help with, but as long as it is not a matter of justice and conscience, my daughter will do her best."

Yu Yuqing's gaze wavered, she was afraid that Zhong Ming would suggest something that she couldn't do herself.

Seeing their expressions, Zhong Ming could not help but sneer, "It's not as serious as you two said, do not be nervous, I am just asking Miss Yu to help me settle the formation related matter, to see if you can help me fix it."

The two of them looked at each other, Yu Yuqing still had some suspicions, but after a while, he relaxed and replied with a smile: "So that's how it is, I wonder if I can do it, Yu Qing will definitely do her best to help senior fix it."

When Zou Jiaxuan came into contact with Yu Yuqing, she always had a straight face and holes in her mouth.

Not to mention Zou Jiaxuan, even Zhong Ming was stunned for a moment, causing the lady to lower her head bashfully. Only then did Zhong Ming realize that she had lost her composure, and quickly recovered and said: "I cannot bring you the things that I need to repair, but I have already drawn the map, let's see if Miss can repair it."

The blueprint that Zhong Ming took out was a destroyed teleportation circle that he had unintentionally discovered. It had already been abandoned for many years, and in order to fix it, no one would know about it. Thus, the formation master that he had been secretly searching for, if he could fix it, would also be his own life saving channel.

Yu Yuqing took the blueprint and looked through it, then exclaimed out loud, "Ancient formation."

Hearing that, Zhong Ming knew that there was hope for recovery. Seems like the low levelled lady had extremely high attainments in array formations, to be able to recognize her, she must have found the right person.

"This is an ancient transportation formation. If it is heavily damaged, with my current strength, I cannot perfect it. However, according to your blueprints, the damage is very small. Back when I was learning formations, I had come in contact with formations like this, so I think I should be able to restore it."

Zhong Ming was overjoyed, just as he was feeling happy, Yu Yuqing's words came again.

"In the past when I was learning array formations, ancient array formations weren't very useful, so I didn't have much time to study them. If I wanted to restore this array formation, I would need a period of time." Yu Yuqing said with a face full of shame.

"How long will it take? I'll come back then." Zhong Ming urgently wanted to know, as he had a mission to complete, and furthermore, he could not stay here indefinitely. If he returned, he did not know if he would have the chance to return here, since this place was too far away from his sect. Furthermore, he had many thorns on his path of cultivation, and had many enemies.

"The fastest is half a year. I think it should be possible. Before this, I've studied it roughly for a few days." Yu Yuqing said resolutely.

"Alright, I will come back later to retrieve it. I hope that I will be satisfied and return home." Zhong Ming laughed in satisfaction, in a short period of time, he could still wait for the mission to be completed.

Zhong Ming chatted with them for a while before he bade his farewell and left. He remembered that during this period of time, he too had a slim chance of survival, and thought that he was only going to protect a mortal who had helped his master before.

After this matter had occurred, Zhong Ming had obtained a secret news, which was that the Devil Dao had wanted to invade their country. Furthermore, several countries had already been annexed, and all the forces had gathered together to form an alliance to fight.

With Zhong Ming's current strength, he could only be used as cannon fodder when he left. Hence, he was even more anxious to retrieve his teleportation map, as even if he had to repair the teleportation circle, he would have to leave this battlefield. During this period of time, he would be constantly shuttling through the various large marketplaces, collecting all sorts of items related to the teleportation circle as well as the ingredients needed for him to refine pills, in order to prepare to leave.

This time, the flames of war were going to erupt. Not to mention his sect, even the entire South Province would not be spared.

Luckily, this mission allowed him to leave his sect, to leave the battlefield. However, he couldn't return to his sect, so he had to leave this place. The only hope he had of leaving this place was the ancient transportation formation.

In the blink of an eye, he turned into a streak of light and disappeared into the horizon.

Within a few days, Zhong Ming had dodged a few patrols of Devil Dao and left the mountain range, flying straight for Yu Yuqing's residence.

He quickly arrived at the city where Zou Jiaxuan lived and arrived at his residence. When Zhong Ming jumped down, he was greatly alarmed in his heart.

Zhong Ming did not know what happened to Zou Jiaxuan, so he took out the Flying Sword and carefully walked inside. Under his search, he found a corpse that was rotten and smelly among the rocks, but it was not Zou Jiaxuan's corpse, but his servant, the owner of the restaurant.

After searching a few more times, he did not find Zou Jiaxuan. He did not know if he was able to escape this calamity, but Zhong Ming released the Spiritual Sense.

They were an old man and a young man. This old man was as skinny as firewood, his eyes were small, but they shone with a bright light. He had a short beard, and was a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

Zhong Ming just looked at the two of them, it seemed like the two of them had something to do with the destruction of the Zou Jiaxuan family.

"You are related to someone with the surname Zou, what business do you have here?" The young man asked first.

Zhong Ming did not pay attention to him and turned to look at the old man. He knew clearly that this old man should have more authority than him.

When this young man saw Zhong Ming, he disregarded the anger in his heart. Although Zhong Ming was a Foundation Establishment cultivator, their family was still considered a big family in the region, and had always been flattered by others. Who knew that under such circumstances, he would be so infuriated that he would take out his magical equipment and teach him a lesson.

The moment he did this, he was stopped by the elder beside him.

"We'll make our move later. First, we'll ask him who he is and what he's doing here."

Hearing the old man's words, Zhong Ming did not make a sound, and only coldly looked at him.

Because he was also a Foundation Establishment cultivator, and Zhong Ming was already a middle stage cultivator, the old man had some concerns.

"The stone house was destroyed. Did you do it?" Zhong Ming slowly said.

"Could it be that you are also from the Zou Family, and that Zou Jiaxuan is someone as well?" The old man continued to ask.

"I'm not from Zou Family, but is Zou Jiaxuan alive or dead?" Zhong Ming said.

"Alive." The old man didn't want to answer so he answered after a moment of hesitation.

When Zhong Ming heard that Zou Jiaxuan was still alive, his heart relaxed slightly.

"Why did you do this to Zou Jiaxuan and destroy this place?" Zhong Ming didn't know how Zou Jiaxuan offended people, and even had such a huge grudge.

"Zou Jiaxuan, damn it, you actually dared to kill our men." The young man interrupted.

Hearing this, Zhong Ming's brows furrowed and his face immediately darkened. He suddenly thought of the few youths who attacked Yu Yuqing half a year ago who were killed.

"So it's like that, what are you two waiting for, aren't you afraid of Zou Family coming for you, if an expert comes from the outside, aren't you two in danger?"

"Hmph, why would we be afraid of Zou Family? Besides, they wouldn't attack an outer sect disciple that we couldn't even find. It's enough as long as we're here." The young man snorted and said.

"Oh, looks like there's no one else apart from the two of them …" Zhong Ming's voice was abnormally cold.1
