As the night passed, the next morning, everyone woke up and gathered together.
Seeing the group staring at each other blankly, Jing Teng's expression became somewhat unnatural: "I don't have any human food here, you'll have to fend for yourselves."
They live among demons and ghosts, and there is indeed no human food for them. In fact, to some extent, it could even be said that humans are their food.
Veso stared longingly at Zaun; he only had a few tattered buns in his bag, while the boss had much more.
Zu'an didn't mind at all. He took out a large pile of exquisite pastries from the glass pearl and distributed them to Qiu Honglei and Wei Suo. These were all provided by the Zhengyang Sect when they were in Zishan.
Because of Zu'an's special status, his diet was the same as that of the leaders of the major sects.
It must be said that the Zhengyang Sect truly lives up to its reputation as the number one sect in Taoism. Their pastries are all extremely exquisite and delicious, and the key is that they are made entirely of precious spiritual herbs and medicinal plants, which are of great benefit to cultivation.
However, after the great battle on Purple Mountain, Wang Wuxie also died, and it's uncertain whether the Zhengyang Sect will still exist in the future.
At that moment, he suddenly noticed that Jing Teng's eyes were involuntarily glancing in this direction, his nostrils seemed to twitch, and his lips were pursed imperceptibly.
He chuckled and said, "Would you like some?"
Jing Teng's eyes lit up, but he still said calmly, "We don't need human food, but I'll give you face because of your kindness."
After saying that, she took it. She had just felt the essence of the medicinal herbs on the pastry. She put it in her mouth, and sure enough, a refreshing feeling spread from her mouth.
"Is it good?" Zuan asked with a smile.
“Okay…” Jing Teng began, his face slightly flushed, “It’s passable, so-so.”
"Want some more?"
"It's not absolutely necessary."
"Never mind then."
"Alright, I'll try it again."
...
When Qiu Honglei had a moment to spare, she tugged at Zu An's sleeve and whispered, "Zu, have you taken a liking to her?"
Zuan chuckled: "I just feel that she has too many secrets, and building a good relationship with her might be beneficial in the future."
Recalling what Mi Li had said last night, she was actually curious whether men would feel pain when they were intimate with vine demons. Tsk tsk, what a perverted old woman.
Hearing him say that, Qiu Honglei smiled like a flower: "Then I will cooperate with you and help you well from now on."
Zuan: "???"
What should we do in this situation?
After breakfast, the group left the cave. Jing Teng reached out and beckoned, and a wisp of light drifted into the cave, forming a jade pendant necklace.
Zu An exclaimed in surprise, released her aura to investigate for a while, and found that the aura in the cave had disappeared without a trace. However, the jade pendant in her hand had a familiar feel to it.
"Is this jade pendant the blessed land from last night?"
Qiu Honglei and Wei Suo were both shocked; they had never seen such methods before.
"Not bad." Jing Teng had just finished eating the good food and was in a good mood, so he didn't mind answering some of his questions.
Zuan was a little curious: "What if such a small thing gets stolen by a thief? That would be a huge loss."
Jing Teng glanced at him, then put the necklace on in front of him, tucking the jade pendant between his breasts: "I don't think anyone could steal it without me noticing."
Everyone was stunned. Placed in such a location, it was indeed absolutely impossible for it to be stolen.
Then she said to Sakura, "If we go outside, the trees won't block out the sunlight anymore. You should go inside first."
"Yes." Sakura bowed. "Thank you for your trouble, Grandma."
He bowed slightly to Zu An and said, "Thank you for your help, young master."
After finishing her story, she transformed into a wisp of smoke and entered a porcelain urn, which was clearly her urn containing ashes.
With a flick of his sleeve, Jing Teng instantly tucked it into his sleeve.
Zu An looked at him strangely. This woman's every move resembled that of a legendary immortal cultivator, not a demon at all.
At this moment, Qiu Honglei asked, "Miss Jing, you just said that the forest can no longer block out the sunlight. Are ghosts in this world also afraid of sunlight?"
Jing Teng was somewhat surprised. Why had this woman's tone become so friendly? She originally didn't want to pay attention to her, after all, the two of them had a rather unpleasant argument yesterday.
But then he thought that he might need their help along the way, so he explained, "That's right, sunlight is extremely strong and yang, and it is the nemesis of many ghosts. However, some ghosts, if they are strong enough, do have their own ways to resist the erosion of sunlight."
Zuan asked curiously, "What level is Sakura's combat power among the ghosts?"
As Jing Teng led them out of the woods, he replied, "Not even close to being a good person, only slightly better than some mindless wandering ghosts."
Zuan secretly felt sorry for Sakura; she was so weak, it was truly pitiful.
However, she is quite beautiful, and if we also consider her talents in certain areas, her fighting ability might not be low either...
His face flushed, and he quickly composed himself: "Don't worry, young lady, we are not afraid of even the most powerful ghosts. Red Tears is a cultivator of the light element, so she is naturally effective against evil spirits. Moreover, I also have a skill that can deal with evil spirits."
His Primordial Chaos Sutra has a purifying effect, and he was quite adept at dealing with those undead creatures back then.
Qiu Honglei nodded and said, "That's right. Since ghosts are afraid of light, that makes things easier."
Weisuo puffed out his chest, originally wanting to say that he was not weak either, but after thinking for a long time, he couldn't think of any ability he had that could deal with the ghost, and suddenly he was as wilted as a frostbitten eggplant.
Jing Teng frowned slightly: "Don't let your guard down. Ghosts are not so easy to deal with. They are not like those low-level undead creatures and are not easily countered by certain skills."
