Although Fan Qiyue felt a little strange about Li Guihua's unusual attitude, she didn't pay it any mind. She turned around and walked to Jun Feijue's side, "Master, he said he has something to tell you."
"Yes, what is it?" Upon hearing this, Jun Feijue looked up and said calmly.
"That's right, another pigeon beast just flew over, seemingly trying to rescue the original one."
As Li Guihua spoke, she pulled out a pigeon beast that she had been tightly holding in her arms. "This is the one. I guess it knows the original one, so I thought I'd come and tell the Duke."
It turns out that the border region is half a month's journey from the capital, but only a little over a hundred miles from Houji Mountain. At the speed of the pigeon beast, it would only take a short while to make the round trip.
However, after waiting for half a day, Bailisyu and the others still hadn't seen the pigeon return. They assumed that the previous one might have gotten lost, so they sent out another one, hoping to bring the previous one back.
After all, people can get lost in these unfamiliar border forests, let alone pigeons; this is a common occurrence. Therefore, Bairisyu and the others did not have any other suspicions.
They didn't even consider the possibility that Jun Feijue and his group would capture the pigeon beast.
"You did a good job."
Seeing this, Jun Feijue's eyes lit up, and he rarely praised Li Guihua, saying, "Lock them all up. Be careful, if any more pigeon beasts come, catch them all."
"yes."
Li Guihua was overjoyed to receive Jun Feijue's first praise. Recently, she had been ostracized in the village because she had bullied Fan Qiyue. She happily left with the pigeon beast in her arms.
"If only there were a few more."
Watching Li Guihua's departing figure, Jun Feijue swallowed hard before thinking, "Right, I haven't contacted Xiao Xie and the others for half a month. I wonder where they are."
Thinking it over, Jun Feijue immediately summoned Shi Wuxie.
At this moment, Shi Wuxie and his beast had just entered a city and were strolling around the streets under the guidance of Chunhu Siqiong, buying supplies needed for their journey.
"Little zombie, this place looks good."
After passing a very upscale pastry shop, Chunhu Siqiong jumped off Shi Wuxie's shoulder without saying a word and ran into the shop across the street.
Seeing this, Shi Wuxie's face was very ugly, but he could only step forward and follow.
"Little Evil..."
However, just as he reached the middle of the road, he received a summons from Jun Feijue.
"Owner!"
Upon receiving the summons, Shi Wuxie was overjoyed and immediately stopped to focus on communicating with Jun Feijue, "You've finally contacted us."
"Yes, I was in seclusion before."
Jun Feijue gave a brief explanation and then asked, "How are you doing? Where are you?"
"We are all fine, but even though we are traveling at top speed, we have only covered half the distance. It may take another half month to reach the capital."
After finishing speaking, Shi Wuxie asked with concern, "Master, are you alright with just one person on your side?"
Unlike Jun Feijue and the others, Shi Wuxie is currently unable to use magical artifacts to travel or fly, so his speed is much slower.
"It's alright, I'm not alone. I've found you another junior brother."
Jun Feijue said calmly, "I'll introduce you when we meet."
"What!"
Upon hearing this, Shi Wuxie, who had been beaming with joy, froze instantly, and his eyes immediately turned red.
The master has taken on another disciple, and he's even a junior disciple!
Does that mean that Master and that junior brother are now alone together?
