There were rumors before that there was a shortcut in this forest, but they only heard that neither Rong Qianxue nor Kong Qing knew where the shortcut was.
"They were prepared!"
Those people obviously knew how to take shortcuts and were waiting for Su Mu to agree. Then they could easily defeat Su Mu, steal all the Soul Resurrection Flowers, and let Su Mu stand guard for them!
"How shameless!"
Both of them were so angry that they gritted their teeth. They were so shameless. If you can't afford to lose, then don't bet!
"Su Mu will definitely lose now."
Taking a shortcut can save at least one-third of the time. Not to mention those at the ninth level of the Reborn Realm, even the eighth level of the Reborn Realm can easily beat Su Mu!
But now, no matter how angry they were, they had no choice but to speed up and rush towards the end of the island.
Two-quarters of an hour later, on the river bank, Yuan Jie and the others had all arrived. Looking around, Su Mu and the others were nowhere to be seen, and they all had proud smiles on their lips.
"They are still too young to fight with us!"
"Those three idiots must still be running for their lives."
Everyone couldn't help but think about Su Mu's reaction when he came panting and saw them all arriving.
"Hoo, ho..."
A quarter of an hour later, Rong Qianxue and Kong Qing ran to the shore panting. When they saw Yuan Jie and the others standing on the shore and looking at them with a proud smile, they gritted their teeth in anger.
"Hey, why are you so slow?"
"Are you bastards? It took a full three-quarters of an hour to arrive."
"The bastards are faster than you!"
Hearing their cynicism, Kong Qing and the two almost exploded with anger.
"Shameless, you still have the nerve to take a shortcut!"
"How could you have gotten there so quickly if you hadn't taken a shortcut?"
"Hey... who said we can't take shortcuts? Did you say that before? We never said that." The old students shrugged and laughed. Kong Qing and the others were even more angry when they saw their shameless appearance, but they couldn't refute. After all, they had really done it before.
No one has said anything about it, but who would have thought that they would have figured out the shortcut long ago.
"Where's Su Mu?" Yuan Jie and the others looked behind Rong Qianxue. Their goal was Su Mu, but defeating Rong Qianxue didn't give them much sense of accomplishment.
"Hey, I haven't arrived yet, maybe I'm lost?"
"You guys are the speed bastards. I didn't expect him to be slower than the bastard!"
"Ha ha……"
The old students laughed proudly, and both Rong Qianxue and Rong Qianxue were so angry that their faces turned red, but it was useless to be angry anymore. They did not see Su Mu again in the second half of the journey. It was possible that they were really lost. If that was the case,
, they became a complete laughing stock.
All the old students did not leave, did not go to collect spiritual flowers, and did not set up camp. Instead, they continued to wait for Su Mu. After finally defeating Su Mu, how could they not read Su Mu's jokes?
But after waiting for a quarter of an hour, or two quarters of an hour, Su Mu was still nowhere to be seen.
"The trash didn't die inside, did it?"
"It's been so long, even if you get lost, it's time to come out."
"Tsk... I guess I know I've lost and don't dare to come out to see anyone."
"Forget it, don't wait for that waste, let's go pick the spirit flowers!"
Everyone left with a sneer, and shouted to Rong Qianxue and the others: "You two should stay here and keep watch for us!"
Rong Qianxue and Kong Qing's faces were ashen and they looked around, anxious in their hearts.
"Why hasn't Su Mu come yet? Something happened, right?"
Huh? Rong Qianxue suddenly fixed his gaze, and then hurriedly rushed to a white rhizome. After a flash of disbelief on his face, his eyes widened in surprise!
"Su Mu has been here a long time ago!"
Yuan Jie and the others stopped for a moment, turned around and looked at the happy Rong Qianxue, sneered and shook their heads, "Have you arrived a long time ago? Are you crazy? Who has arrived a long time ago?"
"What? You don't believe it?" Rong Qianxue had a confident smile on her face, pulled out the white rhizome from the mud and handed it out: "You should all know this, right? The rhizome of the Restoration Flower!"
The old students frowned, it was the rhizome of the Fulinghua flower, so what?
"This Restoration Flower has obviously been picked not long ago. Who do you think picked this Restoration Flower?" Rong Qianxue threw the rhizome directly in front of everyone. Everyone looked at the rhizome and looked at each other in confusion. They were the first one.
The reaction was that Su Mu picked this Restoration Flower!
"impossible!"
But they immediately rejected this possibility. They deliberately took a shortcut. The first person to arrive was nearly two quarters of an hour faster than Rong Qianxue and the others. How could Su Mu arrive earlier than them and return the result?
After picking the spiritual flowers, this must be done at least twice as fast as them!
But until now, no one has picked the Soul Resurrection Flower.
"Hmph, you picked the Soul-Reviving Flower yourself but said it was picked by Su Mu. Are you trying to fool us? Hand over the Soul-Reviving Flower!" An old student immediately recognized Rong Qianxue's trick and stretched out his hand to shout.
Rong Qianxue smiled and said, "Do you think I will be as shameless as you?"
"If you don't believe it, you can go look for the Restoration Flowers yourself and see if all the Restoration Flowers have been picked!"
The faces of all the old students darkened, and they immediately turned around to look for the Fu Ling Hua.
"Rong Qianxue, if we find the Resurrection Flower, just wait!"
"If you dare to fool us, we will make you look good even if we are not allowed to fight among ourselves!"
Seeing everyone making harsh words to find Fu Ling Hua, Kong Qing walked up to Rong Qianxue in surprise.
"Why are you so sure that Su Mu has arrived long ago?"
"Why, you don't believe Su Mu?" Rong Qianxue did not explain, but asked instead.
Kong Qing was dumbfounded and his face became tangled. He believed in Su Mu, but it was so much more than those old students that he couldn't believe it.
You must know that those old students all took shortcuts. Su Mu had to reach such a terrifying speed to far surpass them!
"There are two Soul Resurrection Flowers picked here!"
"The Fulinghua flowers have really been picked, and they have just been picked not long ago!"
The old people searched for a long time, and all they found were the rhizomes of the Fulinghua flower. They had all been picked!
Disbelief began to appear on their faces. Did Su Mu really arrive a long time before them? They even lost to Su Mu by taking a shortcut?
No one dares to believe it, and no one can accept it.
"Su Mu! Su Mu is here!"
Hearing one person exclaiming, everyone rushed over quickly. Rong Qianxue and Kong Qing looked at each other and rushed over quickly.
Under a big tree by the river bank, Su Mu was seen sitting cross-legged practicing, with several flawless white flowers placed in front of him.
When everyone rushed over and saw those white flowers, their faces suddenly changed and their pupils shrank!
"Resurrection Flower!"
That is the Resurrection Flower!
"Sure enough, he picked them all!" Everyone looked at Su Mu in shock, swallowing hard, feeling their hearts aching.
"Haha... I'm right, he has arrived long ago!" Rong Qianxue rushed over to take a look and laughed happily.
Kong Qing looked at Su Mu in disbelief. Not only had he picked all the Soul Resurrection Flowers early, but he had been practicing here for so long, and they didn't even notice!
"How did he do it?" As a sword cultivator, he really couldn't imagine that Su Mu could achieve such terrifying speed.
Su Mu slowly opened his eyes, picked up a Soul Resurrection Flower, ate it, and glanced at everyone indifferently.
"Are you bastards? How did you get here?"
