Ma Jiu saw that Qin Feng’s expression seemed somewhat off and turned his head for a closer look, immediately recognizing Qin Xi and couldn’t help but be startled as well.

Qin Feng, from a distance, saw a hint of impatience on Qin Xi’s face, so he quickly walked over.

Ma Jiu sighed softly to himself.

Although he did not wish to start any disputes with Ma Xingkong, Qin Feng had been invited by him, and he couldn’t just ignore the situation, so he reluctantly shrugged his shoulders and followed.

The two reached them, and Qin Feng called out from a few steps away, “Sister Xiaoxi, how come you also took on this task?”

As he spoke, he approached, seemingly not noticing Ma Xingkong at all, and directly stepped in between Ma Xingkong and Qin Xi.

“Afeng, have you taken on this mission as well?”

Qin Xi looked at Qin Feng with some surprise and felt reassured by his arrival.

“Yes, Senior Brother Ma Jiu invited me. I thought hunting demon cultivators might be dangerous, so I didn’t call you. I didn’t expect you to be here.”

Qin Feng indeed knew that she had recently advanced to the late stage of Qi Refinement and had planned to undertake some missions with Qin Xi once his own cultivation improved a bit more so that she could gain some experience. He did not expect her to be so bold as to even accept a task to battle against Demon Sect disciples.

“We came with Senior Sister.”

Qin Xi pointed to a gentle-looking female cultivator next to her and said, “This is Senior Sister An Ruhui, and Senior Sister An is quite formidable.”

“Nice to meet you, Senior Sister An.”

Qin Feng politely greeted the woman, “We’ll have to trouble Senior Sister to take good care of my cousin during this mission.”

The woman had reached Foundation Establishment, and while he couldn’t discern the depth of her cultivation, he could faintly sense the power emanating from her, not to be underestimated.

An Ruhui smiled softly, “Junior Brother Qin, you’re too courteous. Since Xiaoxi and I come from the same peak, it’s only right to look out for each other.”

Qin Xi then pulled over a girl who looked a year or two younger than herself and said, “This is Junior Sister Wen Qing’er.”

Qin Feng remembered her as the girl who took care of the Spiritual Deer that he had met at the valley entrance the first time he went to find Qin Xi.

Wen Qing’er, with her sparkly large eyes, looked at Qin Feng and giggled, “Senior Brother Qin, we met last year when you came to Creation Peak to find Senior Sister.”

“Right, I have to thank Junior Sister for pointing the way back then.”

Qin Feng nodded politely at her.

“Afeng, why don’t you join us? With Senior Sister An taking care of us, there definitely won’t be any trouble.”

Qin Xi extended the invitation.

She felt that Senior Sister An Ruhui was very capable, and if Qin Feng joined them for the mission, he would certainly be much safer.

“That’s…”

Qin Feng hesitated and said, “I came out here with Senior Brother Ma Jiu, it wouldn’t be right to leave him.”

“No problem, then let’s have Senior Brother Ma Jiu come over as well.”

Wen Qing’er’s face was full of innocence, and she didn’t seem too concerned about the amount of resources that might be obtained during the mission.

“Count me in, count me in.”

Before Qin Feng could open his mouth to speak, Ma Xingkong had already been looking on enviously and quickly squeezed past Ma Jiu, shamelessly moving closer, “We’re all from the same sect, looking out for one another is only right. Senior Sister An and the two Junior Sisters rest assured, with me, Ma Xingkong here, I definitely won’t let those Demon Sect villains harm you.”

“Hmph.”

Wen Qing’er, the young girl, wrinkled her nose and pouted as she spoke, “We were inviting Senior Brother Qin, what does it have to do with you? You’re such a slick talker, one glance and anyone can tell you’re not a good person.

There are so many fellow disciples on the flying boat you could join, so why insist on swarming around us?”

Ma Xingkong’s face was not only long, but his skin was also quite thick, utterly unmoved by Wen Qing’er’s accusation of him being a slick talker.

However, when his small eyes passed over Ma Jiu, he suddenly felt indignant.

That guy called Qin Feng might be barely presentable, with about a third of his own handsomeness.

But what was good about Ma Jiu? Not remotely as handsome or dashing as himself, nor necessarily more advanced in cultivation; even such an ugly guy could be invited by the disciples of Creation Peak, he absolutely could not lose to such a person.

Ma Xingkong, considering himself the second-handsomest man of the Beast Taming Sect (self-proclaimed), absolutely could not accept the humiliation of defeat.

If he lost to Kong Xuan, whose looks he grudgingly admitted were slightly better than his own, that would be one thing, but compared to Ma Jiu, there was simply no contest in terms of looks.

If someone were to say in the future that he was less popular with the female disciples than a pock-marked face, that wouldn’t just be embarrassing for him, but, more importantly, how could he face continuing to mix in the flowerbeds?

So, this guy started to make a nuisance of himself with his thick skin, pestering incessantly to hang out with them.

An Ruhui knew of Ma Xingkong’s identity, and although she somewhat disdained him, it wasn’t appropriate to tell him to leave, so she could only helplessly let her Junior Sister Wen Qing’er full of disdain argue with him.

“Haha, please go ahead, Senior Brothers.”

When Wen Qing’er, puffing with anger, turned her back to ignore him, Ma Xingkong finally smiled and, with a cupped fist salute toward Qin Feng and Ma Jiu, said, “My name is Ma Xingkong, a disciple from Heavenly Horse Peak. May I know how to address you two?”

Qin Feng turned his head and glanced at Ma Xingkong.

This guy had a pair of small eyes, a bulbous nose, paired with his long face, he was certainly distinctive.

No wonder he merged with his Heavenly Horse early on; the fittingness of his face was simply too high.

Aside from his unforgettable facial features, there was still something about this guy that was not ordinary. Even after being so disliked by Wen Qing’er, he was still able to talk calmly without blushing.

But by now, he noticed that although this person might talk big, he had not actually disrespected the female disciples in any critical way, nor had he been handsy.

It seemed that Ma Xingkong was quite different from entitled heirs like Zhao Jinglei.

And indeed, although Heavenly Horse Peak ranked only midway among the 108 Outer Peaks, it had its unique aspects.

Especially Ma Xingkong. It was said that his Lifebound Spiritual Beast was a Heavenly Horse, not only was it extremely fast in running and flying, but it also had some special abilities.

Given the circumstances, if this guy wanted to follow, then let him. Howsoever, he must be a Direct Lineage of the Ma Family. He definitely had many treasures to save his own life. If danger was encountered on this trip, it would surely be useful to have him handy to fend off an attack or two.

Thinking up to here, Qin Feng smiled slightly, “Senior Brother Ma is too polite. I am a disciple of Spiritual Snake Peak, Qin Feng, and this is Senior Brother Ma Jiu from Sky Wolf Peak.

It’s inevitable that we’ll face some dangers when we’re rounding up the Demon Sect villains, and Senior Brother Ma’s profound cultivation will surely be a great help. We must ask you to take good care of us then.”

“Not at all, Junior Brother, you’re too kind.”

Ma Xingkong, seeing that Qin Feng didn’t exclude him, was instantly overjoyed, “You must be Junior Sister Qin’s cousin, right? Don’t worry, with me here, I’ll ensure you siblings remain safe and sound.”

Qin Feng’s mouth twitched, a sudden urge to hit someone surging within him.

No wonder he was so unpopular among the female cultivators of the sect; this guy simply couldn’t keep away from mentioning women in his conversation.
