The cool morning breeze blew past her body, and Sophie opened her arms like a nimble little bird.
Sniffing the scent of grass in the air, she couldn't wait to land.
Suddenly, my neck felt tight.
This damn familiar feeling!
Sophie struggled to break free from Xuan Lin's hands, but it was in vain.
Xuan Lin easily lifted her back onto the sword and considerately protected her in front of him.
The tall figure looming over her head made her look particularly petite and delicate.
"Stand firm this time, don't fall again."
A calm voice came from above my head, and the fresh fragrance of bamboo leaves filled my nostrils.
Such an intimate gesture almost made Sophie blush.
Fortunately, her skin is thicker than the city wall.
Unfortunately, the chance to escape is gone.
Sophie hung her head listlessly.
Xuan Lin noticed her change and thought she was frightened, so he couldn't help but slow down his sword flying.
Sophie watched helplessly as Yunju Peak got closer and closer to her...
Hey, did it fly over your head?
Sophie was surprised to see Yunju Peak passing by her feet.
So this guy didn't want to send her home?
So what's going on here?
As if seeing her confusion, Xuan Lin opened his thin lips slightly.
"Recently, villagers from Qiongqiu Village at the foot of the mountain have been coming to Fengqing Sect seeking help, saying that a demonic creature has appeared. Jiuhua Peak has sent dozens of disciples to investigate, but none of them have returned."
These two short sentences contain a huge amount of information.
Sophie stroked her chin, thoughtfully.
In the original plot, the name Qiongqiu Village occasionally appeared, mostly as a place where the protagonists rested after returning from a mission.
But now, the male and female protagonists have not met yet, let alone the main characters.
So, the current situation is like being completely in the dark?
"There's a demonic aura."
Xuan Lin's words interrupted Sophie's reverie.
He lifted her to the ground with one hand, and with a flick of his sleeve, the flying giant sword turned into a sword in his hand.
We settled in a dense forest behind Qiongqiu Village, where the trees were lush and green.
Sophie took a careful sniff, but didn't smell anything special. Instead, she smelled the aroma of cumin barbecued meat.
Is there anyone barbecuing here in this desolate mountain area?
What a good taste!
Sophie was instantly excited.
I happened to have missed breakfast and was so hungry that I had a heartburn.
She swallowed and walked forward following the scent, and a big hand grasped her forearm.
"This monster has a strong demonic aura and is quite powerful. Your spiritual power is weak, so do not act rashly."
Xuan Lin said, pulling her behind him.
Tsk, that's really underestimating people.
Sophie rolled up her sleeves, eager to try. She wanted to see how powerful this monster was that everyone changed color when talking about it.
"Here I come."
Xuan Lin stood with his hands behind his back, his brows suddenly cold.
Sophie stuck half of her head out to take a look. What she saw was still the dense jungle, but the smell of cumin barbecued meat was getting stronger.
Could it be that this delicious smell of barbecue is the evil spirit that Xuan Lin mentioned?
Sophie marveled at the monster's strong body odor.
Suddenly, there was a rustling sound not far away, as if something was passing through the jungle.
Hearing the sound, Xuan Lin turned his wrist and raised the ice sword in his hand.
In an instant, the sharp sword emitted a white light and freezing cold air burst out.
It must be very comfortable to sleep with this sword in your arms in the summer.
Sophie stared straight at the sword in Xuan Lin's hand.
Just as she was about to quietly reach out and touch it, an indescribable pungent smell hit her in the face.
