Just Wanting to Live a Good Life But Surpassing the Protagonist – 22 The Old Book
Seeing Qiu Li Gao fell to the ground, with a deep bloodstain on his back and blood gushing out, Long Tian clenched his fists and looked at the sneak attacker: “What do you mean by this?”
It was a young man holding a sword, tall and handsome: “Just giving the trash who defied me a little lesson. If you want to blame someone, blame him for being blind and getting too close to you.”
Soon, several cultivators appeared around them, the lowest being at the seventh level of Foundation Establishment, and the highest at the ninth level of Foundation Establishment, surrounding Long Tian.
“Were you the one who hit the Young Master?” One of the seventh level Foundation Establishment cultivators sneered, “You little trash from the countryside, you just got lucky and got good results in the competition. You don’t really think you’ re amazing, do you?”
Long Tian looked at the cultivators who had surrounded him and snorted disdainfully: “So many of you came to find me alone, doesn’t that mean you admit that I’m amazing?”
“Don’t flatter yourself, we just want to be on the safe side, in case you run away.” The Young Master pointed his sword at Qiu Li Gao’s head, “You better not have any ideas, just stand still, or his life will be over.”
“Why do you think I would care about his life?” Long Tian said expressionlessly.

“I didn’t ask you to care, I just think that if he died, and we said that you were the one who killed him after we went out… We have so many witnesses, who do you think the Enforcement Hall will believe?”
Long Tian still didn’t change his expression, and the Young Master couldn’t figure out what he was thinking. In fact, the Young Master didn’t want to kill Qiu Li Gao so soon. If he died now, and Long Tian ran away, even if he could later put the blame on Long Tian for killing a fellow sect member, the punishment Long Tian would receive would only be from the elders.
What the Young Master wanted was to cripple Long Tian with his own hands, then kill Qiu Li Gao, and then frame Long Tian. That way, he could not only squash the annoying bug, but also get a good reputation for stopping a murderer from continuing to kill fellow sect members.
Long Tian was no fool, and he could think of the same thing the Young Master did.
Several cultivators kept approaching, and Long Tian squinted. Inside his clothes, the jade pendant he wore on his chest flickered, and a bullet-shaped object suddenly appeared in his hand.
He crushed it with force.
“Bang!” A cloud of smoke instantly enveloped the surroundings.
A bad feeling flashed through the Young Master’s mind, and he immediately retreated. A sword shadow appeared where he had just been standing.
If he had reacted half a beat slower, it was hard to say if he would still be alive.
Soon, the smoke was dispelled by the cultivators, and Long Tian was nowhere to be seen. The Qiu Li Gao lying on the ground was also gone.
“Long Tian!!!” The Young Master was so angry that he could burst. It was a sure thing, but he had still managed to escape.
“Where did that kid get the smoke bomb? I didn’t see him with a storage ring or using a storage bag.”
“Maybe he has other storage treasures on him.”
“Young Master, I’m very sorry, I was careless for a moment.”
“It’s not your fault.” The Young Master actually wanted to find someone to punch, but the others had only come to help him because of his older cousin’s face, and their cultivation was higher than his, so he couldn’t attack them: “Let’s chase him.”
There was blood on the ground, and Long Tian was also carrying an injured person, so it shouldn’t be difficult to find him.
A group of people chased after him.
————
Long Tian’s jade pendant space had stored beast blood, which he had previously collected to draw talisman. Now, it could be put to good use.
He wrapped Qiu Li Gao’s back with his clothes, preventing the blood from dripping from the wound, and sprinkled beast blood in the distance, creating the illusion that he was escaping in that direction.
Otherwise, carrying an injured person, he wouldn’t be able to escape very far. Moreover, Qiu Li Gao would be in danger of losing his life if he continued to bleed like this.
Applying beast repellent incense, he ran all the way into the depths. More than ten minutes later, Long Tian stopped, immediately put Qiu Li Gao down, fed him a blood replenishing pill, and sprinkled special golden sore medicine on the wound.
The Young Master’s sword strike was very forceful, and he had no intention of letting Qiu Li Gao live.
If it was just a small fight, then forget it. Since you were so cruel to me and hurt my companions, then don’t blame me.
Thinking of the Young Master’s face, a thick killing intent flashed in Long Tian’s eyes.
Half an hour later, the wound on Qiu Li Gao’s back had scabbed over. The special golden sore medicine was indeed powerful, and the perfect blood replenishing pill also made Qiu Li Gao’s complexion much better. He even regained consciousness.
“I, what happened to me, my back hurts so much…” Qiu Li Gao’s eyes were filled with confusion.
“You stepped on a trap and were knocked out.”
“I feel like I was chopped up, could it be you?”
“Why would I chop you up? And it would be a problem with my brain if I chopped you up and then saved you, right?”
“That’s true.” Qiu Ligao grinned.
“That trap is pretty dangerous. You’re very lucky you didn’t lose an arm or a leg. However, you have internal injuries. It’s not suitable for you to stay in the secret realm any longer. Go out first.”
“But I haven’t gotten any opportunities yet.”
“I’ll share some with you later, okay?” Long Tian stuffed a perfect blood recovery pill into Qiu Ligao’s hand. “Go back and rest well.”
“Okay.” Qiu Ligao could also feel that his current state was very bad. His cultivation was not high to begin with, only at the third level of Foundation Establishment. In this state, let alone opportunities, he would be lucky to be reincarnated .
Crushing the teleportation stone, Qiu Ligao’s body was quickly enveloped by a light, and then he left the secret realm.
“I’m not strong enough yet. I can’t deal with those guys at the eighth or ninth level of Foundation Establishment at the same time.” Long Tian’s eyes flickered as he looked towards the depths of the secret realm. “Anyway, I’ve already marked them with the hidden fragrance. I’ll find them and settle the score when I break through to the ninth level of Foundation Establishment.”

Long Tian avoided many spirit beasts and went deep into the realm. Suddenly, Old Immortal Meteorite sent out a reminder: ‘There are array fluctuations there. It’s an illusion array.’
Long Tian looked over and saw a patch of thorny grass. “How do I break it?”
‘Simple. Inject spiritual power there, and then…’
Following Old Immortal Meteorite’s instructions, Long Tian spent about ten seconds breaking the illusion array. Then, a small wooden house appeared before his eyes.
There was a fence around the small wooden house, which was probably used to grow something before. Now, the land was empty.
“Has someone already searched it?”
‘Impossible. That’s a level two array, and in such a deep place, who could find this place faster than you without my specially made beast-repelling incense?’
“Ye Yong?” If Long Tian had to say who he was most concerned about among the cultivators who had entered the secret realm, it would definitely be Ye Yong.
‘He is indeed quite talented, but do you think arrays are like mortals learning 1+1, that everyone can do it? You saw those few spirit beasts at the middle stage of crystallization just now. Without the beast-repelling incense, you wouldn’t ‘t have been able to get past them.’
“That’s true.”
‘This is obviously a place where an elder planted herbs. Most likely, they are no longer needed, so it was abandoned. Go into the house and see what’s there. When you come back, dig up some soil and take it with you. This soil is quite fertile and is suitable for planting spirit plants below the third rank.’
“Okay.” Long Tian entered the small wooden house. It was very empty, with an antique box placed in the center. It was very eye-catching.

‘It’s another level two restriction, very similar to the illusion array outside. It seems to be set up by the same person.’
“Could it be a trap?” Long Tian was more vigilant.
‘Impossible. This is a secret realm controlled by your Heavenly Luo Sect. The elders will only give opportunities to you juniors. There’s no reason to set up a trap. Even if there was a trap, I would be able to sense it in advance .’
“That’s true.” Long Tian followed Old Immortal Meteorite’s guidance and quickly lifted the restriction. He opened the box, and inside lay an old book without a cover. There was a line of words written on it.
