After several days of travel, Mu Li and Mo Xi finally arrived at the foot of the Flaming Mountain.
"Brother Mo Xi, let's take a break and adjust our condition." After running around for several days, Mu Li and Mo Xi looked a little embarrassed.
"Okay, let's do some preparations as well." Mo Xi nodded.
"Yeah." Mu Li said and pulled Mo Xi into the space.
"Brother Moxi, you take a rest here first. I'll go draw some talismans!" Mu Li said and turned to go into the study.
After a short rest, Mo Xi went to the door of the study to meditate and practice, and waited for Mu Li to come out.
"Tsk tsk tsk, look, when he marries his master in the future, he will definitely be a wife slave!" Several little ones gathered together and whispered.
"I think so! The master is seventeen years old this year, and he has been keeping his wife for seventeen years. I wonder when they will get married?"
"Who knows? But immortal cultivators have very long lifespans, so it doesn't matter if it's early or late."
"That's true. Anyway, they can be together forever..."
Mo Xi listened to what the little animals said and curled the corners of his mouth calmly.
In the study, Mu Li was concentrating on drawing talismans, completely unaware that someone was already keeping an eye on her most important life event.
For seven whole days, Mu Li did not step out of the room, and Mo Xi at the door did not move either.
The little animals looked at the closed door, then at the "human-shaped statue" at the door, and couldn't help but start talking again.
"Waiting Husband Stone, this must be what people often call the Waiting Husband Stone!"
"What do you mean by Husband-Waiting Stone? He's a man, so it's more like a Wife-Waiting Stone!"
"Right, right, right. What's so good about cultivation? Can he just sit there and not move?"
"What do you know? He's clearly guarding his master! Believe it or not, as soon as his master comes out, he'll be the first to stand up!"
"Really? Brother Jiuwei?" Xiaolu asked, blinking.
"Of course, that's what it says in the storybook!" The nine-tailed fox puffed out his chest proudly.
"Wow, Brother Jiuwei knows so much!" The little deer continued to flatter him.
"Haha, you will understand a lot when you grow up." The little white fox was a little shy after being praised, and said with a red face.
"Yeah, I want to be as powerful as Brother Nine-Tails in the future..."
"Look, he's moving! The master is coming out!" Little Phoenix, who was always paying attention to the movements in the study, shouted in surprise.
When the other little animals heard this, they looked over and saw Mo Xi slowly stand up, patting the non-existent dust on his body, straightening his clothes, and staring at the study door intently.
With a "creak", the study door opened and Mu Li's slightly tired figure appeared in front of everyone.
"Ali!"
"Owner!"
"Owner!"
“…”
"Brother Moxi!" Mu Li's eyes lit up, and all her fatigue disappeared in an instant...
"Why are you all here?" Mu Li asked the little animals.
"Master, you haven't been out for a week, we are all worried about you!"
"Yeah yeah!"
“We missed you so much!”
The little animals chirped and expressed their longing for each other.
"Okay, okay, I know everything. How about I take you all out to play when I'm training in the future?" Mu Li asked.
"Great! We should have gone out to gain experience long ago!" The little animals cheered.
"Well, you have been practicing for so long, it's time to go out and practice!" Mu Li nodded and said.
"Hmmmm..." The little animals nodded frantically.
"Brother Moxi, wait for me to pack up and then we'll go out!" Mu Li smiled and said to Moxi.
"good."
Mu Li turned and went into the room to wash up and change into clean clothes. When she came out again, she looked radiant.
She took Mo Xi's hand and held the little phoenix in her arms, and they flashed out of the space. The two of them headed towards the Flame Mountain side by side. As they approached the edge of the Flame Mountain, a blazing heat hit them in the face.
"The temperature here is too high, Brother Moxi, use the fire-avoiding talisman and the cooling talisman first." Mu Li took out some talismans and handed them to Moxi.
"Okay." Mo Xi took the talisman and carefully stuck it on his body.
At this moment, the ground suddenly shook, and a huge fire unicorn emerged from the ground, its body ablaze with flames, its eyes gleaming with ferocity.
"Any outsider who trespasses into the Flaming Mountain will be killed!" roared the Fire Kirin.
Mu Li held the sword tightly in her hand, while Mo Xi protected Mu Li behind him.
"We are just passing by and have no ill intentions." Mo Xi tried to communicate.
"No matter who you are, do not set foot in Flame Mountain!" The Fire Kirin ignored all explanations and launched an attack. Mo Xi threw up his shield to block the attack and winked at Mu Li. Mu Li understood and quietly stepped aside, casting a powerful spell to strike the Fire Kirin's side.
The Fire Qilin was attacked and turned angrily to pounce on Mu Li. Seeing this, the Little Phoenix immediately unleashed its divine beast's might! The Fire Qilin froze in place.
Seeing this, Mo Xi flew up and stabbed the Fire Kirin in the back with all his strength.
"Considering that you are from the Qilin clan and have a trace of the blood of the divine beast, I will spare your life today!" Mo Xi said loudly.
The Fire Qilin felt pain, its body swayed, and finally turned into a ball of fire and disappeared.
"Are we so powerful now? Is this the problem?" Mu Li asked uncertainly.
"Yes, Ali, you have to believe in yourself. You are very strong now!" Mo Xi said with a smile.
"Hehe, okay, I'm very strong!" Mu Li smiled and continued to walk towards the depths of the Flame Mountain with Mo Xi.
I saw blazing flames in the depths, rolling heat waves, and the air around seemed to be on fire.
Mo Xi took out a cool jade pendant and handed it to Mu Li: "A Li, the temperature deep in the Flame Mountain is too high, and the talisman paper may not be able to withstand it. Wearing this will make you feel a little cooler."
