Chapter 410: Chapter 410

Not long after Immortal Skeleton left, Hermit Emei rushed over. “What happened here just now?”

Xiao Jinting said regretfully, “I just met an injured Nascent Soul from Sacred Sect, but unfortunately, he escaped.”

“How can you let him escape?” Emei said in anger.

Xiao Jinting said awkwardly, “I am a new Nascent Soul. How could I rival an advanced Nascent Soul? I was lucky to survive the fight.”

“Aren’t you very powerful? Why can’t you catch an injured Nascent Soul?” asked Emei.

“Senior, you must be joking. My cultivation level is not high at all.” Xiao Jinting said softly.

Hermit Emei snorted and left.

“Father, where are we going now?” Xiao Xiaodong asked.

Xiao Jinting said with a sullen face, “Let’s go back to the sect first.”

He smiled coldly. He had seen Immortal Skeleton’s space ring. There was only half of the Heavenly Thunder Wood, and he thought Immortal Platanus was hiding the other half.

…

Immortal Skeleton first met Master Heavenly Lantern from Great Buddha Temple and got injured in the fight.

After that, he met Xiao Jinting, who cut off his arm. This was not the end. He later encountered Hermit Emei, who tracked him down in anger and beat his soul out of his body.

“Master, that old man said Xiao Jinting took the wood. Is it true? Xiao Jinting is only a preliminary Nascent Soul,” Shi Huaiyu muttered.

“Xiao Jinting is not Immortal Skeleton’s rival, but the latter got injured by the old monk from the Great Buddha Temple, so it is possible for Xiao Jinting to snatch the wood,” replied Emei sulkily.

When she was surrounded and attacked by the enemies, she sensed Xiao Jinting’s presence. She expected him to come and help her so she could quickly escape. To her surprise, Xiao Jinting ran away without coming to her rescue.

Therefore, Emei was angry with Xiao Jinting.

“If that’s the case, he’s lucky,” said Shi Huaiyu.

Emei turned grave. Xiao Jinting said that Immortal Skeleton had escaped, but he didn’t tell her that he had cut off Immortal Skeleton’s arm.

“Master, didn’t you leave a secret mark on the Heavenly Thunder Wood? Can you sense where it is now?”

When Emei had the chance to look at the piece of Heavenly Thunder Wood, she left the powder of the tracking venomous insects, which could help her locate the wood.

Emei said lightly, “The piece of Heavenly Thunder Wood was split into two halves a few days ago. One half was stolen by Immortal Skeleton. I don’t know where it is now. Perhaps Xiao Jinting took it. And the other half is in Platanus Sect.”

Shi Huaiyu paused for a moment and said: “Still in Platanus Sect? Wasn’t it stolen?”

Emei shook her head and said, “No, it’s still in Platanus Sect. Although Immortal Platanus is a preliminary Nascent Soul, his sect has a long history. If he hadn’t loosened the security, the Heavenly Thunder Wood wouldn’t have been stolen so easily.”

…

When Xiao Jinting returned to the Green Cloud Immortal Sect, Dongcheng Yang came out to greet him.

Xiao Jinting felt that Dongcheng Yang was eager to inquire about the news.

“Jinting, I heard that you did a great job and earned glory for our sect.”

“Mr. Dongcheng, you are kidding me. Actually, I didn’t do anything this time.”

“You beat the soul out of a medium Nascent Soul and then cut off an advanced Nascent Soul’s arm, but you say you did nothing. You are kidding me.” Dongcheng Yang patted Xiao Jinting on the shoulder.

“I was lucky to defeat the medium Nascent Soul. As for the advanced Nascent Soul, if Master Heavenly Lantern hadn’t fought him previously, I wouldn’t have defeated him. I could have been bean up.”

“In a battle between cultivators, we only look at the results. If we win, we win. Good luck matters. I heard that you’ve got the Heavenly Thunder Wood. You are very lucky.”

“I’m not that lucky. Sacred Sect should have split the wood into several parts, and I got only one of them,” said Xiao Jinting ruefully.

Dongcheng Yang said with envy, “It’s a blessing to have a piece of such a rare wood.”

Xiao Jinting nodded in agreement.

Xiao Jinting went into seclusion after returning to Green Cloud Immortal Sect.

A few days after he went into seclusion, the people from Great Buddha Temple and Snow Mountain Sect came to visit one after another. Xiao Jinting didn’t see any of them with the excuse that he was in the seclusion of life and death, so Dongcheng Yang had no choice but to receive the dignitaries from these sects.
