Chapter 1118 Second Boss

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Although traveling in a flying boat is comfortable and saves spiritual energy, However, in Chu Jun's eyes, that speed was too slow. Even though Ding Qing's flying ship was a Class 5 flying magical artifact that could travel 20,000 li a day, it would take at least one million li to return from the edge of the Insect Realm. The most conservative estimate was that it would take 50 days. It was a waste of time, especially since Chu Jun was unable to cultivate the divine arts on the flying ship. He could only cultivate at night while camping.

Fortunately, after leaving the Bug Realm, the flying ship did not have to stop flying at night. The cultivators took turns controlling the flying ship, so their speed was much faster. They estimated that they would be able to return to the Realm in about a month.

The entire journey was calm and peaceful. The airship had almost never stopped. Although it was confirmed that Yu Xin was Ding Qing, Chu Jun did not have the opportunity to examine her injuries on the ship. He could only slowly wait for the two of them to "get to know each other" before making plans.

After flying for more than twenty days, he finally saw green plants. The spiritual energy in the air began to become denser. It was obvious that he had already approached the domain. As they approached, Ding Qing controlled the airship to land on a high ground near a river and instructed, "Everyone, rest here for a day!"

Everyone's hearts relaxed when they returned to this place. They happily got off the flying ship. Mu Yun and Ye Xiaolei were in charge of patrolling the surroundings. Kwai and another female cultivator took the initiative to pick up firewood, and two male cultivators were in charge of cleaning up the camp.

"I'll go find something to eat!" Chu Jun greeted Ah Chou and walked towards the river. However, Ah Chou hurriedly followed him. He had been eating the Grain-repelling Pill on the flying ship for the past ten days, causing her mouth to be dull and tasteless.

There were a lot of fish in the river. Not long after, Chu Jun caught a few river carps and caught a grass turtle and a wild crane. He directly slaughtered and washed them by the river. He set up firewood to boil grass turtle and carp, while the wild crane directly used the river mud to paste them and threw them into the fire to burn the "Qier He".

Very quickly, an attractive fragrance came out from the riverside. A Chou's stomach let out a rumbling sound, and he instantly glanced at Chu Jun embarrassedly.

Chu Jun laughed, "Are you hungry?"

Ah Chou nodded. Her cultivation was sealed. Undoubtedly, she had to eat every day like an ordinary person.

"Only by cooking slowly can I make a hot turtle, so I'll drink the soup later. Have some roasted fish first!" Chu Jun handed a roasted carp to Ah Chou and pulled out a ball of dry mud from the fire.

A Chou frowned and said, "Is it edible that dirty?"

Chu Jun chuckled and said, "Don't bite your tongue later!" After saying that, he lightly slapped the mud ball. The dried mud ball instantly split apart, revealing the tender and smooth meat inside. The wild crane's feathers were stained by the mud. The alluring fragrance of the meat made Chu Jun swallow his saliva. He tore a leg of the crane and handed it to Ah Chou. He smiled and said, "Taste the green harmless beggar crane!"

Ah Chou took a bite and his eyes immediately lit up. Soon, he finished eating the entire crane leg. He praised, "It's delicious!"

"What smells so good?" A voice sounded from behind. Ding Qing was walking over on the sand by the river.

Chu Jun smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Yuxin came at the right time. Try the begging crane I made!"

"Qier He? What a strange name!" Ding Qing walked to the side and sat down.

Chu Jun tore a crane leg and handed it over. Ding Qing frowned slightly. She did not like meat very much, but she still politely took a small piece and tasted it. She found that the mouth was soft but not greasy. Moreover, her lips and teeth were fragrant. She could not help but take another bite. Then, when she discovered that Chu Jun was looking at her with a smile, her face couldn't help but blush slightly.

Chu Jun smiled and said, "How does it taste?"

"It's delicious. I didn't expect Brother Han to be an expert in the kitchen!" Ding Qing praised.

"Xue'er can't cultivate. I cook all three meals a day. How well-cooked!" Chu Jun said seriously.

Ding Qing glanced at Ah Chou who was enjoying his meal and smiled, "Xue'er is really lucky to have a brother like you!"

Ah Chou glanced at Chu Jun with contempt. Chu Jun smiled guiltily and changed the topic, "It's only noon now. Why did Fellow Daoist Yuxin stop to rest?"

"We've been traveling for nearly twenty days. Shouldn't we let everyone rest and relax?" Ding Qing said with a smile.

Chu Jun suddenly let out an oh, but he always felt that Ding Qing's reason was a bit far-fetched. Although she had traveled for twenty days, she had taken turns to control the flying ship. She did not encounter any dangers along the way. She was very comfortable and believed that no one was tired.

"Fellow Daoist Yu Xin, I heard that you suffered a head injury?" Chu Jun asked calmly.

Ding Qing frowned slightly and asked, "How did Fellow Daoist Han know?"

Earlier, he had addressed Chu Jun as Brother Han, but now he had become Fellow Daoist Han. Obviously, he was a little displeased that Chu Jun had inquired about her.

Chu Jun smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Yuxin, don't misunderstand. It was just that I overheard Gumbo and the others mention it. I didn't intentionally investigate your past."

Ding Qing glanced at Chu Jun and said indifferently, "Fellow Daoist Han seems to get along very well with okra!"

Chu Jun paused for a moment and said awkwardly, "Only occasionally!"

Ding Qingying opened her lips slightly, as if she wanted to say something. After a while, she said, "My head has indeed been injured!"

Chu Jun hurriedly said, "This lowly one is in danger of healing the Divine Sea's wounds. If Fellow Daoist Yu Xin believes me, I can give you a diagnosis and treatment!"

Ding Qing shook her head and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Han Dao. My Divine Sea is not injured!"

To a xiuzhe, the Divine Sea was the most important forbidden area. Unless he was someone he absolutely trusted, he would not allow anyone else to enter.

Chu Jun smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Fellow Daoist Yuxin, if you feel that you need help, you can call me at any time!"

Ding Qing hesitated and looked at Chu Jun. She stood up and said, "I'll go back to the camp and take a look. You guys eat slowly!" With that, he turned around and walked towards the camp.

"I even cooked turtle soup. I can come over and have a drink later!" Chu Jun waved his hand.

Ding Qing stopped and smiled. Then, she turned around and continued walking.

Chu Jun helplessly shrugged his shoulders and said, "She seems to be very wary!"

"Very normal. Ding Qing has lost her memories. In her eyes, you are only someone she has known for less than a month. You can't even be considered a friend. How can she trust you?" Ah Chou said indifferently.

Chu Jun smiled and said, "What good way do you have to make her trust me?"

"First of all, let her feel that you are not harmful to her!" Ah Chou replied.

Chu Jun teased, "Ah Chou, it seems like you're in danger. It seems like I need to be more vigilant. It's possible that you sealed your cultivation to deliberately approach me, because this way I can feel that you're not in danger."

Ah Chou glared at Chu Jun and lowered his head to silently eat the fish!

"I'm so angry. I'm just joking with you!" Chu Jun chuckled.

"I'm too lazy to pay attention to you!" Ah Chou stood up and washed his hands by the river.

"Are you full so soon? There's more here!"

"Leave it to your Sister Qing!"

Chu Jun couldn't help but shrug his shoulders and settle the remaining meat on his own.

When Chu Jun and Ah Choumei were drinking turtle soup, Ding Qing actually came with Mu Yun and Ye Xiaolei.

"Haha, Brother Han is indeed hiding here to drink turtle soup. It's good to eat!" Mu Yun sniffed hard and sighed, "It smells good!"

Chu Jun smiled and said, "You came at the right time. If you're too late, you'll have to eat your bones!"

Chu Jun had prepared quite a few utensils in his interspatial ring. He took out three bowls and served them to Ding Qing and the others. This pot of old turtle and carp soup was well-cooked and tasted delicious. Even Ding Qing could not help but drink two small bowls.

Just as everyone was eating and drinking and chatting, Chu Jun suddenly stood up and looked into the distance. Ding Qing's heart stirred and she also stood up. She took out a flickering jade pendant-like magic treasure from her space belt, her face clearly showing joy.

A moment later, an arrow-shaped flying magical artifact appeared in sight. Ye Xiaolei said happily, "That is the arrow of the Second Master!" With that, he stepped on the flying sword and greeted him.

Ding Qing and Mu Yun also flew up into the sky, and Kwai and the others from the distant camp were no exception!

Soon, the arrow stopped above the camp. Several people flew out of it. The first man was wearing a black robe. He had sharp eyebrows and a very heroic appearance. He should be the second boss of Sha Tie, Tie Hao.

"Looks like Ding Qing set up camp here at noon to wait for Tie Hao!" Ah Chou glanced at Chu Jun and said indifferently.

Chu Jun's divine sense quietly swept over and discovered that Tie Hao actually had a late-stage Spirit Refining cultivation, a level higher than Ding Qing's.

Seeing that Ding Qing was clearly very happy, Tie Hao happily said, "Yuxin, you're finally back. Why don't you wait for me to come out of seclusion before doing the mission together?"

"How do I know when Second Brother will be able to get out of seclusion!" Ding Qing smiled as she sized Tie Hao up and down and said happily, "Congratulations to Second Brother for advancing to the Late Divine Refinement Stage!"

Tie Hao scratched his head and laughed. He glanced around and asked in shock, "Yu Xin, why is there only this few people?"

Ding Qing's eyes darkened. She lowered her head and said, "Second brother, I'm sorry, I messed up!"

Seeing this, Tie Hao hurriedly comforted, "It doesn't matter. The risk of killing insects is already high. Let's go to the camp and tell Second Brother what happened!"

A group of people landed in the camp and entered the tent.

A Chou lightly touched Chu Jun and said with a faint smile, "Aren't you going to join the fun?"

"What are you doing here?"

"Aren't you afraid that Sister Qing will be tricked away by bad people if you don't help her?"

Chu Jun suddenly understood, and nodded, "This Shen Hao seems to be not bad!"

"People don't know their hearts, but many honest people actually have dirty hearts!"

Chu Jun sized Ah Chou up and down and asked, "You seem to be more worried than me?"

Ah Chou curled his lips and said, "What does it have to do with me? I'm just reminding you, in case Hongyan's confidante is tricked away, you won't have a place to cry!"

Chu Jun couldn't help but be speechless, "Please, who said that Sister Qing is my confidante?"

Ah Chou glanced at Chu Jun and said indifferently, "Then pretend I didn't say anything!" Stand up and wash your hands by the river.

Chu Jun glanced at the camp in the distance. For some reason, he felt a little unhappy in his heart.

About half an hour later, the tent door opened and Ding Qing led everyone towards Chu Jun.
