Looking at the figure that resembled a small mountain, Lin Zhenzhen called out uncertainly, "Xiao Hei?"
"That is indeed the Emperor Beast. However, because this despicable human stole an important part, its current form is not the final form of the Emperor Beast."
"So that's how it is," Lin Zhenzhen roughly deduced the cause of the incident in her mind.
It was because she obtained something from the Horned Weasel that Huang Rongjue acted so abnormally, and her strength increased by leaps and bounds overnight.
Wu Nianmu snorted coldly and said, "There are no shortcuts to cultivation. These greedy humans will eventually pay the price for their actions."
The Spirit Refining Tournament transformed into a battlefield of carnage, filled with the roars of demonic beasts and the wails of cultivators.
After being tossed away by a demonic beast, a cultivator in blue robes tumbled and landed at the feet of Wunianmu.
He raised his chin and spat a mouthful of blood at Lin Zhenzhen.
"You shameless slut, you actually colluded with demonic beasts. You are utterly disgraceful to humanity and a disgrace to the entire spiritual cultivation world."
Before he could finish his insults, Wu Nianmu kicked him in the back of the head, silencing him forever.
“You don’t need to feel guilty. This man smells terrible. He must be a local bully who harasses people. He deserves to die.”
Lin Zhenzhen paused for a moment, then lowered her eyes and whistled.
The Horned Weasel Emperor Beast responded with a low growl, and immediately all the demon beasts stopped what they were doing.
For a time, the two sides were locked in a stalemate.
The horned weasel took off running towards Lingzhen, like a big dog that wasn't quite right in the head, happily circling around her.
Lin Zhenzhen was so overwhelmed by the huge, fluffy head that she could hardly breathe. She forced a smile and managed a weak compliment: "Hmm, looks like you've been eating well lately, you've grown quite a bit."
The horned weasel stuck out its tongue and gently touched her arm with the tip of its barbless tongue, snorting and whimpering as it acted coquettishly towards Lin Zhenzhen.
Lin Zhenzhen smiled and gently patted its head: "Okay, I know, I'm fine, don't worry."
Under her gentle touch, the imperial beast comfortably squinted its eyes. Its relaxed and contented appearance made it seem as if it were about to roll around on the ground.
Their close interaction was witnessed by everyone.
"So, you've been lying to me from the very beginning?"
Lin Zhenzhen paused, then looked up and saw Xuan Yuanzhao approaching step by step.
The horned weasel turned its head and immediately changed its appearance.
The membranes in its eye sockets flipped over, revealing a pair of red vertical pupils that seemed to burn like flames, and hot breath sprayed out.
The low, whimpering sounds coming from its mouth were a warning to the intruders.
If he dares to take another step forward, I will rush forward without hesitation and tear him to pieces.
But Xuanyuan Zhao ignored him and continued walking towards her.
"Don't come any closer."
Lin Zhenzhen's features tightened, and she said loudly, "That's right, I've been lying to you all along. I am a Moon Spirit Root. What you saw before was all an illusion I deliberately created."
Xuanyuan Zhao slowly lowered his eyes and said softly, "Why do you do this?"
"It has nothing to do with you."
"You are my fiancée."
"It's not like that anymore!" Lin Zhenzhen's hands, hidden behind her back, gradually tightened. "The engagement has been dissolved, and everyone in the entire Yunlong Kingdom knows this."
She said in a trembling voice, "I have nothing to do with you, Xuanyuan Zhao, anymore. From beginning to end, I only used you, and you, you fool, actually believed it."
Xuanyuan Zhao stopped abruptly, looked at her expressionlessly, and said, "I see."
[Oh dear, good news and bad news. The face-slapping progress is 100%, and also, the favorability rating has dropped to -100, haha, can't laugh.jpg]
Lin Zhenzhen dared not look at him again, and hurriedly turned her head to Wu Nianmu, saying, "Let's retreat first."
As soon as the person and the tree turned around, they felt a tremendous resistance coming towards them.
Xuan Kang's voice rang in her ears: "Ling Zhen, what do you think this place is, that you can come and go as you please?"
A gust of wind rushed towards her, and Wu Nianmu's expression changed. He held her and retreated dozens of steps.
Xuan Kang's figure gradually appeared, and he began to wrestle with Xiao Hei.
As he fought, he let out a sinister laugh: "I never imagined that there would be a Horned Weasel Emperor Beast in this world. It's just a pity that you are not in your complete form right now."
Xuan Kang made a hand seal with his left hand and formed a talisman with his right. He then put his hands together, which transformed into a golden net.
"A single cub cannot defeat me." A bloodthirsty smile appeared in Xuan Kang's eyes. "You cannot escape!"
-------------------------------------
Lin Zhenzhen lay on the horned weasel, gripping its fur tightly with both hands, not daring to relax for even a moment.
She heard Wu Nianmu's words in her ears: "Go forward, don't look back, wait for me at Pi Lingyuan."
After running for an unknown amount of time, the surrounding environment gradually darkened. Lin Zhenzhen knew that they had entered the territory of Pilingyuan. Sure enough, after passing through a narrow valley, the view suddenly opened up.
After seeing everything clearly, Lin Zhenzhen was so shocked that she couldn't speak.
She jumped off Xiao Hei's back, looked up, and gazed at the towering tree before her.
Lin Zhenzhen knew that the Wunian Wood was very large, but she didn't expect it to be this outrageous.
The brown tree trunk was so thick that it seemed to stretch as far as the eye could see, like a giant standing between heaven and earth.
The tree canopy was so dense, like a dark cloud, blocking out the sun. Occasionally, through the gaps in the leaves, a few glimmers of moonlight would filter through, casting dappled patterns on the grass.
Finally arriving at its destination, Little Black seemed to have exhausted its last bit of strength. It let out a soft cry, and then its body slowly shrank back to its original form.
"You've worked hard, get some rest." Lin Zhenzhen carefully tucked it into her bosom and began her long wait.
A snow-white fawn hopped and skipped out of the grass.
It has two short antlers standing on its head, which are probably because the antlers have not fully grown out yet, so the top is still a rounded curve.
It walked to the tree and placed the few red flowers it was carrying in its beak on the ground. Then it tilted its head and looked at her from afar.
A moment later, the fawn took small steps to Lin Zhenzhen's feet, picked up a clump of grass from the ground, and slowly began to chew it.
Gradually, more and more spirit beasts appeared in the valley, bringing with them the fallen flowers and leaves they had collected to feed the Wunian Tree.
Unlike the outside world, Piling Abyss was quiet and peaceful, but Wunianmu never appeared.
Lin Zhenzhen paced back and forth, thinking about the scene when she left, her palms gradually becoming sweaty: "Brother Wu, don't scare me, don't scare me."
Finally, a gentle breeze blew by, and the white figure appeared beside the tree trunk.
"What, are you afraid I can't beat them? Why do you have so little confidence in me?"
Hearing this voice, Lin Zhenzhen's tense nerves finally relaxed.
As she turned around, she said, "Why did it take you so long to get back? You almost gave me a heart attack."
But the next second, her smile froze on her face.
