Not A Cultivator - Chapter 165
Fei Bao Xing was looking intensively at the cube in his hand. It was the ancient treasure to temporarily get rid of the Qi within its vicinity.
According to estimation from when Guo Jin used it before, its power works within the radius of five meters, and the duration was about ten minutes.
With this treasure in his hands, Fei Bao Xing could have a chance of winning. The only thing keeping him from that was he did not know how to use it. However, even after he put his finger on it for about fifteen minutes, he still has not gotten a single clue.
Ancient letters were engraved into the gold plated cube. Every six sides contained nine characters making a total of 54 characters, with each has its own place of equal smaller squares.
Fei Bao Xing noticed that he can turn one side of the cube, but turning one makes a third of the characters switched places. Even, after turning it around and around, he felt like it was useless since he has no clue on which one should go to which.
“Are you done looking at the treasure? We have an important thing to do. We should go back and finished the test.”
It was Chang Miao who called. For some reason, Guan Ru Yi and Guan Ru Na were a bit reluctant to scold Fei Bao Xing, so she has no choice but to do it herself.
The event was too much for them and, the girls were too tired. Thus, they decided to go back instead of searching for more keys.
Deng Huan seemed to have run off with only keys worth of thirty points, he left the rest behind. As a result, Chang Miao’s team got whooping points of 94, from the combination of the team’s initial points and Deng Huan’s team stealing effort.
Besides, they confirmed that it was not Fei Bao Xing who killed Deng Huan’s lackeys. So, they could get comfortable with 64 points even after paying the 30 points to pass the test.
“Please wait, just a little bit more…”
Fei Bao Xing flipped through the ancient treasure as he said those words.
If Fei Bao Xing goes now, he will have to go through the dark forest without any light, which means he could not examine it anymore until he gets out. On the other hand, this place was lighted under the fire Feng Zhi Yan made earlier. Fei Bao Xing just could not resist the temptation of using this treasure again.
Of course, Chang Miao was not pleased. While she put her little fingers on her forehead, she said.
“Ru Yi, please confiscate that treasure, and told him that we’re moving now.”
Guan Ru Yi, “…Let’s just wait a little more. He’s looking so serious its better not to bother him.”
Chang Miao creased her eyebrow, Guan Ru Yi who respected her so much dared to defy her order. She had a hunch, but she did not consider Guan Ru Yi would really fall for Fei Bao Xing.
“Then… Ru Na, you do it…”
Guan Ru Na, “…”
“Ru Na?”
“…I’m sorry. But, considering what Fei Bao Xing has done for us. I think it’s better to do as what Ru Yi said.”
Chang Miao frowned. Guan Ru Yi was a bit spoiled and rough, so it was not rare for her to speak out her own opinion. However, Guan Ru Na was more mature and educated, she rarely ever defy her order.
Does the two of them really fall for someone like Fei Bao Xing? Do they really care about their image so much that they were afraid Fei Bao Xing will hate them if they interfered?
Chang Miao, on the other hand. Could she really scold and confiscate the cube from Fei Bao Xing? No, she could never win against him, not when he showed his prowess fighting against Guo Jin earlier.
Then, there’s only one choice left. Chang Miao turned around and headed for the forest.
“I’m leaving!”
The Guan sisters were surprised that Chang Miao left on her own… They glanced at both Chang Miao and Fei Bao Xing back and forth.
[Fei Bao Xing is quite strong, right? He’ll be alright on his own…]
“Young Lady Min…”
“Wait for us!”
In the end, they decided to go with Chang Miao and left Fei Bao Xing alone.
At the same time, Fei Bao Xing was too focused on the ancient treasure that he did not notice the girls were leaving him behind.

Alone in the middle of the forest, Kong Ling Jue was patiently waiting.
“Hoot… Hoot…”
The Water Moon Owl flew and landed on the ground near Kong Ling Jue’s feet, and conveyed what it saw.
As he calmly listened to the report, Kong ling Jue could not help but creased his eyebrow. The more he heard his face frown even more.
“Two intruders… Deng Huan survives, but two of his teammate died… No one knows who killed them… The other one was kidnapped by the intruder… And, Chang Miao’s team all survive…”
“Hoot… Hoot…”
“The woman intruder found you but ignored you. It can’t be helped she’s strong after all…”
Kong Ling Jue sighed in helplessness. At first, he intended to punish Chang Miao’s for breaking the rule of giving food to someone else. But, after he saw Deng Huan’s team with evil intention towards Chang Miao, he ignored his duty and let Deng Huan take care of it in his place.
Initially, Qi intents were put all over the forest entrances, it was used to detect whoever entered the forest to ensure no one will interrupt the test. As Kong Ling Jue was the one who put it himself, without saying, his detection skills were top-notch without equal.
In the middle, the Qi intents were sending signals of someone. One was sending a Qi of some unknown man around the level of Dream Earth Realm. But, the other one could not even pick it up, that Kong Ling Jue thought there’s only one intruder. That was until the intruder herself knew the Qi intents were set up there. She purposely released her Qi to the Qi intent and sent it back to the owner.
Kong Ling Jue suddenly felt overwhelmed at the sudden downpour of Qi. He could not even decipher what’s her level, the only plausible reason would be the woman was an Ancient Sky Realm. When she could pass it undetected, she intentionally let it detect her. What else could it be but a warning?
Kong Ling Jue feared that woman would kill him, so he ignored her. As a result, the intruders have interfered with the test.
It was a humiliation for Kong Ling Jue. Throughout the year, nobody has ever interfered, but now under his supervision, it became the first time ever. But what he could do? Fight and get killed? It’s not like the intruder will welcome him with open arms.
“At least, they’re gone now…”
“Hoot… Hoot… Hoot…”
“Hmmm… What am I going to do about Chang Miao’s team breaking the rule, you say? Well… Since Deng Huan could not do it… I just have to punish them myself…”
***
Jun Yin Ying even while dragging three people, she was moving at a ridiculously fast pace. While she was running, she suddenly remembers something.
“Ah… Come to think of it. The owner of that Qi did not come looking for me… I thought I can appeal to him by showing how strong I am and he’ll come looking for me asking to be his master…
Jun Yin Ying pouted.
“Uuuu… Just where did it go wrong?”
***
It has been hours since the girls were heading towards the entrance. Since the forest was big, it still takes a while until they reach their destination.
Suddenly, a man appeared out of nowhere in front of them.
“Elder Kong Ling Jue!”
The girls bowed down while they cupped their hands. This movement itself was a sign of respect, but Chang Miao’s eyes were full of anger. She looked like she wants to kill the man in front of him, but held back as much as she can.
[Hmmm… There are only three girls in the team? I thought there’s one more… That damn owl must have made a mistake in the report!]
Kong Ling Jue slightly raised his hand as a sign they could raise their head. As the girls did so, he said in a powerful but calm voice, “I got a report that someone in your team broke the rule…”
“!!!”
Kong Ling Jue grinned, “You girls better tell the truth. Don’t think that you could avoid punishment!”
