"Hey, wait for me!"
Yue Jiuling watched as Ya Zi went in, and then cast a spell to enter the forbidden area as well.
"Tsk tsk, why is this place so disgusting?"
After entering the forbidden area, Yue Jiuling encountered a problem: on the swampy grass in front of her lay several corpses that were so rotten that they were infested with worms.
"Are these monsters from here, or monsters that strayed in from outside?"
Ya Zi glanced down at the corpses on the ground, then took Yue Jiu Ling's hand and lightly floated over them, saying, "The black fog here is very thick, so don't get lost."
"Okay, I understand, but I feel a little nauseous."
When Ya Zi grabbed her hand, Yue Jiuling didn't feel anything. After entering the forbidden area, she was constantly sensing the surrounding atmosphere and looking at the grass on the ground.
"It's alright, we'll just head towards a place where there are no bodies."
After Ya Zi pulled Yue Jiuling over to the corpse, he reluctantly let go of her hand. He pretended to be casual and asked, "Where did you sense the demonic energy back then? Can you still find that place now?"
"Let me try to sense it."
Floating in the air, with her feet not touching the ground, Yue Jiuling looked around and said, "Damn it, the black mist here is so thick, and the aura is so chaotic, I feel like I can't find that place anymore."
"It's alright, take your time to find it, I'll protect you."
Ya Zi squinted at the black mist and said, "This black mist is quite thick. You need to be careful. If there's something hidden inside, we might not even notice."
"Hmm, let me try sensing it again."
Yue Jiuling continued to sense with her eyes closed in the air. After a short while, she opened her eyes and said, "It seems to be to the west. I'm somewhat familiar with that location, but I'm not entirely sure. However, I want to go and take a look."
"Okay, then let's go take a look to the west."
Ya Zi watched as Yue Jiuling floated down a little, then pulled her along again: "Let's go."
The location to the west is actually quite similar to this side, as this area is entirely swampy, so there's nothing different. The only difference is that they encountered some monsters along the way.
"Hey, Jiuling, look at that monster up ahead! Why is it walking in the swamp? They can clearly use magic to float here!"
Upon seeing a snake demon walking in the swamp, Ya Zi curiously whispered something to Yue Jiu Ling.
Hearing Ya Zi's words, Yue Jiuling was also puzzled as to why the snake demon would do such a thing. She whispered to Ya Zi, "I don't know either. Maybe he just likes walking in the mud?"
As they were talking, the snake demon underground seemed to have noticed them and suddenly raised its head. Fortunately, Ya Zi and Yue Jiu Ling had both used magic to hide themselves, so the snake demon probably couldn't find them.
"Tsk, being stared at like that by him, I don't know why I'm starting to panic a little~"
After being glanced at by the snake demon, Yue Jiuling quickly pulled Ya Zi away. Only after they were far away from the snake demon did she dare to secretly speak to Ya Zi.
Because the snake demon walked in the swamp with the appearance of a human body and a snake head, Yue Jiuling felt a little guilty when he raised his snake head.
Upon hearing Yue Jiuling's words, Ya Zi smiled and reassured her, "It's alright. He probably sensed us just now because of his instinctive reaction, but because his magical power was suppressed in the forbidden area, he didn't notice us."
"Indeed, forget about him, let's move on."
Yue Jiuling started floating again, drifting westward. Along the way, she encountered several more monsters. Some of these monsters, like them, floated in the sky, while others, like the snake demon, walked in the swamp.
"Ah, this should be it. I sense a familiar place. This is it."
After arriving at a muddy area with lush grass, Yue Jiuling said to Ya Zi, "This is the area where Xin Yu and I came in. When we came in, we guessed that it might be a forbidden area of the demon realm, so Xin Yu and I immediately concealed our presence."
“Good job. If you had been found out, it wouldn’t have been easy for you to get out.”
After sensing the presence of several monsters around, Ya Zi became more serious.
