Mo Xingjue's swordsmanship was crisp and clean. Despite the bloody scene, Li Ze saw a different kind of beauty in it and was captivated.
Only when the massive bodies of the two fourth-tier demonic beasts crashed to the ground did he snap back to his senses and subtly withdraw his gaze.
"Senior Brother is so amazing!" A voice full of admiration rang out first.
Li Ze turned to look at the woman. If he remembered correctly, this girl seemed to be an admirer of Senior Brother Mo. The girl's clothes were slightly disheveled, and her pretty face was flushed from the chase, making one want to take a bite.
If he can't even be interested in such a stunning girl, how beautiful must Senior Brother Mo's fellow Daoist be?
With Bai Xue taking the lead, the others also chimed in with praise, "It's just a fourth-tier demon beast, a piece of cake for Senior Brother."
"Senior Brother is now at the Nascent Soul stage; a single level of suppression is enough to make the opponent suffer."
"Senior Brother's swordsmanship is becoming more and more exquisite and unparalleled."
"Our senior brother arrived just in time. If you had come any later, we would have been in big trouble."
"......."
The disciples of Fengyang Sect all chimed in with their own unique ways of praising each other.
"Where is Junior Brother Liu? Why isn't he here?" Mo Xingjue interrupted them.
"Senior Brother Liu and two other senior brothers at the Golden Core stage lured away a fifth-tier demonic beast," a disciple replied.
Mo Xingjue frowned. "Which direction did they go?"
"I can't remember the exact direction. We were panicking and changed directions several times. If you're looking for us, I can guide you."
Mo Xingjue naturally wanted to go find it. "Alright, you lead the way."
He took out his flying sword, turned around and said to Li Ze, "Come here."
It was only at this moment that everyone noticed Li Ze's presence. The thin and frail boy stood in the corner, looking quite young, quiet and well-behaved.
When they saw the boy's face, a look of amazement flashed in everyone's eyes.
"Senior Brother, who is this?" Alarm bells rang in Bai Xue's mind, and she forced a smile.
Mo Xingjue didn't want to explain, but considering that he was going to entrust the person to his junior brothers and sisters, he added, "I rescued her on the way, and I don't know her name yet."
Hearing that she had rescued him casually and hadn't even remembered his name, Bai Xue felt a little relieved. However, the next moment, she sensed something was amiss. Since she had rescued him, she should have let him go; why take him with her? And why fly with him on her sword?
She had known Senior Brother Mo for over a decade and had never seen anyone else on his flying sword!
Bai Xue's eyes widened; this young man was definitely not simple.
She wanted to ask more, but Mo Xingjue had already taken Li Ze and flown into the sky on his sword, flying away with the disciple who had led the way.
“I’m also worried about Senior Brother Liu. Why don’t we follow him and take a look?” Bai Xue suggested.
"I also think we should go and see. Anyway, with Senior Brother there, there shouldn't be any danger."
"It would be dangerous to stay here, since this place is so close to the center of the secret realm, and high-level monsters could appear at any time."
"If that's the case, then what are we waiting for?"
Bai Xue achieved her goal and stood behind a Golden Core cultivator, who then carried her on a flying sword.
Liu Haozhi and the other two Golden Core disciples were in a bad situation. Originally, the three of them could still manage to deal with a fifth-order demon beast, although it was difficult.
Who knew they'd be so unlucky, ending up in the territory of another fifth-tier demonic beast. Now, with two fifth-tier demonic beasts attacking them together, within moments they were either wounded or crippled, their lives hanging by a thread.
The longsword in Liu Haozhi's hand was knocked away by a fifth-tier demonic beast, its foul stench spraying onto his face, its gleaming, sharp teeth inches from his own...
It’s over!
He's going to become a snack in the belly of a monster!
Liu Haozhi closed his eyes in despair.
call out!
A long sword came hurtling through the air with the force of a sword cleaving through the air.
The monstrous beast with its gaping maw was startled and hurriedly retreated.
Liu Haozhi turned his head to look in the direction from which the flying sword came, and just then he saw Mo Xingjue carrying Li Ze as they descended from the sky.
At that glance, Liu Haozhi almost thought he was seeing immortals. These two were stunningly beautiful, with flowing robes. Even the legendary banished immortals couldn't be more beautiful than them.
Mo Xingjue put Li Ze down and said, "Step aside."
After saying that, he ignored Li Ze and, in a flash, engaged in a fierce battle with the demon beast.
While keeping an eye on his surroundings, Li Ze retreated backward, stopping only when he was several hundred meters away.
Such a strong malevolent aura!
Li Ze took a deep breath, unable to resist the temptation, and secretly drew all the evil energy in the vicinity into his body.
Bai Xue and the others quickly caught up, and were startled to see the two fifth-tier demonic beasts. They were then secretly relieved that their senior brother had arrived.
Among the dozen or so people who caught up from behind was a Golden Core cultivator, who also joined the battle. Thus, four Golden Core cultivators were fighting against a fifth-tier demon beast, while Mo Xingjue was dealing with another one alone.
"Hello, my name is Bai Xue. And you, fellow Daoist, what's your name, and which sect do you belong to?" Bai Xue had somehow gotten close to Li Ze, and was now forcing what she thought was a friendly smile.
"Aren't you worried about your senior brothers? How come you have the leisure to talk to me at a time like this?" Li Ze asked in confusion.
Bai Xue choked, her face stiffening slightly, before explaining, "Of course I'm worried, but with Senior Brother here, he'll protect everyone."
Li Ze seemed to be deep in thought, "Being your senior brother must be very stressful, having to protect your safety at all times."
Bai Xue was speechless again, anger and embarrassment intertwined on her face, "...We don't need Senior Brother's protection all the time. We are facing a fifth-tier demon beast now. Apart from Senior Brother, none of us are its match."
Li Ze nodded and remained silent.
Bai Xue was not giving up and asked again, "Are you alone, fellow Daoist? Where are your senior brothers and sisters? The secret realm is full of dangers. It would be very dangerous for us Qi Refining stage cultivators to travel alone in the secret realm."
Li Ze narrowed his eyes and instantly disappeared from the spot.
"You—" Bai Xue glared angrily. How could someone be so ill-mannered!
However, the next second, Bai Xue was stunned.
With her naked eye, she saw Li Ze disappear, and then she couldn't see Li Ze's figure anymore. When she saw Li Ze again, he was behind a fifth-order demon beast. The fifth-order demon beast's sharp tail suddenly pierced through Liu Haozhi's abdomen, and at that moment, Li Ze slashed at that tail with his sword.
At the same time, he grabbed Liu Haozhi by the back of his collar with one hand and pulled him forcefully.
Pfft!
Blood gushed out of Liu Haozhi's body like a fountain.
Li Ze successfully rescued Liu Haozhi and quickly led him away from the battlefield.
Li Ze carried the tall Liu Haozhi in his arms and ran at breakneck speed, leaving everyone in awe. No one had expected that the little boy would have such explosive power and speed.
In addition, how did he predict that Senior Brother Liu would be injured?
