Chapter 97.1

Two stunning beauties are walking in the midst of a dense forest, one behind the other.

The girl walking in front was still young and petite. She held a long sword shining with silver light and kept chopping the dense thorns covering the road. Just looking at her slashing posture, it seemed like she was venting her anger rather than opening a path.

The woman walking behind looked about eighteen or nineteen years old. She stared at the petite girl in front with a smile on her face and said, “Little sister Lin, does it really make you so angry to act with me? How come I remember that you took the initiative and asked to act with me?”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The petite girl looked back at her and snorted coldly, “You know what you’re asking for!”

The woman didn’t take it seriously, and continued with a smile, “Little sister Lin, young master Feng has entrusted you to me. If you encounter any danger, I will not be able to explain to young master Feng.”

The petite girl gave her a blank look, and said angrily, “Hmph! You say you are concerned about my safety, but in fact, you might even wish that a demonic beast would come out and eat me later! In this way, you can approach brother Shao without a conscience!”

The woman sighed and said, “Little sister Lin, how can you slander me like this? Although I do have admiration for young master Feng, I don’t want him to lose his lover. What’s more, you are a few years younger than me. Shouldn’t I take more care of you?”

But the petite girl responded, “I can do whatever I like, you don’t need to worry about me. With this sword and the defensive magic treasures given to me by brother Shao, even if a demonic beast with the strength of the Taiqing realm suddenly appears, I can deal with it. Even if I can’t deal with it, I can still run away!”

The petite girl ignored the woman behind her and continued to walk forward while chopping thorns.

These two people are Lin Xiaoran and Shao Yunqing.

The reason why Feng Shao formed these two into a separate team was mainly out of safety considerations.

In order to be able to open up a safe area, Feng Shao decided to wipe out the demonic beasts in the surrounding dense forest first. In this operation, he brought almost all of Taiwei Sect’s inner disciples as personnel, and the main purpose was to train everyone’s actual combat ability.

Among these people, the Meridian Opening realm is enough to protect themselves, and the Innate realm is the main force.

As for the ones in the Foundation Establishment realm, their main goal is to observe other people’s fighting skills and learn the ability to adapt to changes in battle.

So for Feng Shao and others, it’s not that more people are better, but the opposite.

Once they encounter demonic beasts that are difficult to deal with, even if Feng Shao and others can’t beat them, they can defend against them; and even if they can’t defend against them, they can still run away.

But when there are people with low realm around them, they have to consider their safety first, so there is an additional part in their task, which is to “ensure the safety of the team members.”

At critical moments, they need to take on such a responsibility.

With this in mind, Feng Shao did not arrange a team for Lin Xiaoran and Shao Yunqing. As for his requirements, it was also very simple, that is, “fight if you can fight, and run if you can’t fight.”

Shao Yunqing understood Feng Shao’s meaning as soon as she heard it.

Before leaving, Feng Shao privately asked Shao Yunqing to take care of Lin Xiaoran more.

In Feng Shao’s eyes, no matter how strong Lin Xiaoran is, she still has the kind of childishness she used to have, and she often does things a little willfully.

When Feng Shao is by her side, he can let her be willful.

But if he was not by her side, it’s hard to say what will happen.

Upon hearing Feng Shao’s request, Shao Yunqing was filled with envy, and said quietly, “Little sister Lin is so favored by young master Feng, she is extremely lucky.”

Feng Shao said with a smile, “This is also my luck.”

After hearing this sentence, Shao Yunqing wanted to cry even more.

Why is such a gentleman, who is such a good husband material, not hers?

In Shao Yunqing’s heart, she was very jealous of Lin Xiaoran.

But since Feng Shao had already entrusted Lin Xiaoran to her, she didn’t want to disappoint him. So along the way, she kept persuading Lin Xiaoran to be careful and not walk too fast.

It’s a pity that Lin Xiaoran dislikes Shao Yunqing.

She always remembered that this woman was always thinking about her husband, so she didn’t want to do what Shao Yunqing asked her to do.

The two walked and talked all the way, and they went deeper and deeper into the dense forest unknowingly.

Although Shao Yunqing has been targeted by Lin Xiaoran all the time along the way, she actually knows in her heart that Lin Xiaoran has just been pampered since childhood, making her personality a bit willful, but her nature is not bad.

Now that she was acting together with Lin Xiaoran, in addition to taking care of her safety, she also wanted to establish a good relationship between the two of them.

For Shao Yunqing, it can be regarded as a way to “save the country through curves.”

Along the way, the two also encountered various demonic beasts many times.

However, the strength of these demonic beasts is not very strong, even Lin Xiaoran alone can solve the demonic beasts they encountered.

Over time, they gradually let down their vigilance, and they began to immediately take action whenever they encountered demonic beasts.
