Chapter 356: The Maze
Ye Fei blinked and asked through the contract, "What good stuff?"
"Master, weren't you looking for Moonstone Marrow? It's right ahead!"
Ye Fei's eyes lit up upon hearing this: "Moon White Stone Marrow? Really?"
"Of course it's true! Let's go, let's go!" Qingli urged hurriedly.
"Alright, let's go." Ye Fei raised her hand and ruffled Qing Li's soft feathers, then turned to Huang Rongyu and Mu Jingshen and said, "My contracted beast says there's Moon White Stone Marrow ahead, shall we go together?"
Huang Rongyu looked at her and smiled gently: "Xiao Fei, you don't need to ask for our opinions. You are the captain, and we will not question any decision the captain makes."
Ye Fei raised an eyebrow: "Alright, let's move forward then."
The three of them started walking forward.
At first, the three of them didn't sense anything amiss, but soon Ye Fei keenly noticed a strange gas permeating the air, resembling fog but not quite, yet it wasn't poisonous either.
Ye Fei paused briefly and gave the two people following behind her an antidote.
After swallowing an antidote pill, everything before my eyes suddenly became bright and clear, and the strange white gas that filled the air also quietly faded away.
"Qingli, which direction is the Moonstone Marrow?" Ye Fei asked again.
Qingli: "We need to keep going... However, there seems to be something ahead, so Master, you should be careful."
Ye Fei sighed inwardly; she knew these spiritual flowers and herbs wouldn't be so easy to obtain.
Just then, a strange, eerie wind blew past from behind. Ye Fei turned around abruptly, only to find that Huang Rongyu and Mu Jingshen, who had been following behind her, had suddenly disappeared!
Ye Fei was startled and immediately called out their names to those around her: "Rong Yu! Jing Shen!"
However, apart from the howling wind, no one responded to her, as if the two of them had simply vanished into thin air.
A strange white mist enveloped everything again, turning everything in sight into a vast expanse of white.
Ye Fei calmed down, looked at the only road ahead, took a deep breath, and strode forward.
Suddenly, Ye Fei heard a sound like something wriggling on the ground, like a snake rubbing against the ground.
Ye Fei stopped and closed her eyes. After closing her eyes, her other four senses became especially sharp.
With her ears attuned to all directions, her spiritual energy silently flowed into the air. The Prisoner Orchid slowly climbed up her finger bones, its blue branches stretching out silently, poised to launch a fierce attack at any moment.
"Hiss..."
Behind them!
Ye Fei suddenly opened her eyes, turned around, and thrust the Prisoner Orchid in her hand like a spear towards the thing behind her!
With a snap, the Prisoner Orchid struck the thing, and something fell to the ground. Ye Fei looked over and saw it was a red thorn with strange patterns!
Just then, a pleasant and magnetic voice rang in her ears: "My poor little thing, we've finally met again..."
Warm breath sprayed on her neck, and Ye Fei felt goosebumps crawl all over her body almost instantly. A fierce light flashed in her eyes, and she slapped the person next to her with her left hand!
Thorn chuckled softly, raised a slender finger, and lightly blocked her palm strike. The bewitchingly beautiful man in red narrowed his eyes and smiled contentedly: "Your kung fu has improved quite a bit, but you're still too weak."
