What kind of idiots are these?
Ming Li rolled her eyes and ignored them, continuing to eat her roasted meat.
After being ignored, the group didn't feel awkward but instead sat around the campfire.
The person who spoke earlier glanced at Ming Li and said with a smile, "I am Liu Ci, the head disciple of the Water Yang Sect. I am here on the orders of Master Feng to take my junior disciples out for training. Seeing that you are alone in such a dangerous place, we are willing to escort you safely out of this perilous land." He sensed Ming Li's spiritual power level but found he couldn't discern it at all.
There were generally three possibilities: either the opponent's spiritual power level was too high and they could control their spiritual energy at will; or, they possessed a high-level spiritual artifact that concealed their spiritual power; or, they were just an ordinary person.
Clearly, this woman was not the third case. Judging by her attire and age, she couldn't be the first either. That left the second option: possessing a high-level spiritual artifact. Her demeanor suggested she was from one of the Seven Great Powers...
The spiritual power levels in this world were divided into Spiritual Master, Grand Spiritual Master, Spiritual King, Spiritual Emperor, Spiritual Sovereign, Spiritual Saint, Spiritual Venerable, Spiritual God, and Divine, with each level further divided into nine tiers.
Considering the woman's age, she was at most a Grand Spiritual Master, or if she were a top-tier genius, she would be at most a first-tier Spiritual King. Liu Ci thought this, and he and his junior disciples completely overlooked the eighth-tier Wind Fire Pig roasting on the fire.
Spirit beasts were also divided into nine ranks: Ordinary Low-Tier Spirit Beast, Mid-Tier Spirit Beast, High-Tier Spirit Beast, Sacred Beast, Half-Sacred Divine Beast, Sacred Divine Beast, Half-Divine Beast, Divine Beast, and Ancient Divine Beast, with each rank also divided into nine tiers.
The beast Ming Li had just dispatched was an eighth-tier Sacred Beast that would require the combined efforts of two to three Spiritual Emperors to defeat.
After Liu Ci finished speaking, seeing that Ming Li was only focused on eating roasted meat and paid him no mind, Liu Ci narrowed his eyes and continued, "May I ask which faction the young lady is a disciple of?"
"Rogue cultivator."
"Then, may I know..."
"Shut up!"
Ming Li's lips twitched slightly. She had barely acknowledged him, treating him as if he were invisible. How could he continue speaking?
Liu Ci said, "Since the young lady prefers quiet, I shall say no more. However, this roasted meat... my junior disciples are also hungry. I am willing to exchange three Mid-grade Profound Fantasy Pills for it."
He then produced three Profound Fantasy Pills.
Ming Li's gaze swept over them indifferently. Her lips twitched slightly. How could he have the nerve to present such trash?
Did he really take her for a fool? These pills were clearly failures. If she were an ordinary spiritual cultivator and consumed them, she would either die or be crippled.
Seeing that Ming Li was only looking at the pills in his hand and showed no intention of accepting them, Liu Ci maintained his smile and placed the medicine bottle containing the pills at Ming Li's feet.
The group assumed Ming Li had accepted the pills and began to reach their greedy hands towards the roasted meat on the rack.
Ming Li's beautiful eyes darkened upon seeing this, and she said coolly, "Who allowed you to touch my things?"
A woman dressed in pink retorted with disdain, "My senior brother already gave you pills! What more do you want? Do you know where those pills are from? They are from our Water Yang Sect!"
Ming Li raised her eyebrows. "Oh~ so they are from the Water Yang Sect!"
Upon hearing Ming Li's words, the woman in pink's expression became even more smug. However, Ming Li's next sentence almost made her explode with anger.
Ming Li picked up the medicine bottle from the ground and said disdainfully, "No wonder they're so trashy!"
Everyone: ...
