Li Yiru's protective formation enveloped the few of them. The inexplicably irritating sound of the monkey barking was getting closer and closer to them, and it seemed to be less than a hundred meters away. As long as it passed through the bushes that were as tall as a person in front of them, it would appear completely in front of them.
Si Xu couldn't help but feel nervous. He held the magic sword in his hand and stood side by side with Luo Hanchu at the front of the formation.
Just when she was worried that the melee with the spirit ape would lead to a series of consequences, the chaotic roars suddenly made a sharp turn and gradually moved away.
[Senior Brother Luo, it seems you're right.] Luo Hanchu had previously asked Chen Mengdie why she had never heard of someone like her among the inner disciples. The girl's answer seemed flawless, but in fact, she didn't say anything substantive.
She chose the most remote and declining sect farthest from them as her disguise, but she didn't know that Luo Hanchu had traveled all over the world for many years and had been to almost everywhere. She was quite familiar with the Qingxiao Sect.
Taxue said that she had the breath of a monster and an indescribable smell that was unpleasant.
"Be careful! To be able to transform into a perfect human form, one's cultivation must be quite high." Luo Hanchu warned her, and it seemed he wasn't sure he could kill the child in front of him. He also specifically asked her not to tell Si Xu, saying she was impulsive.
Li Yirou recalled the scene when Si Xu was in Yijian Sect, disguised as Han Yuzhen's Taoist child. It seemed that he was not impulsive?
However, she is very kind and easily reveals her flaws. For example, when she presented the black Ganoderma lucidum to Han Yuzhen, Si Xu's spiritual awareness was so sharp that she noticed Han Yuzhen's detection.
But Li Yiru didn't know that her spiritual awareness was so special at the time. She just thought that she also had some treasure, so she didn't think much about it.
Generally speaking, monsters must be at the immortal or god level to transform, but does the child in front of me have such a high level of cultivation?
She always wanted to urge them to use the earth escape talisman. Was it like the Red Flame Secret Realm, where there was some trick that would send them to a place as long as they used the talisman?
Monster beasts are fine, but if the demons sneak in, then this secret realm will be too dangerous...
Li Yirou removed the formation, "Look, how lucky we are." She smiled at Chen Mengdie and continued to move forward, wanting to see if she could meet people from other sects.
Chen Mengdie took two deep breaths after what she said. Perhaps she was angry, so she pretended to be relieved, but her eyes couldn't help but show anger, so she could only lower her eyes.
Luo Hanchu also looked at her. He felt helpless watching the naughty kid causing trouble, but he also found it quite funny. He turned away with a mixture of anger and laughter.
[You don't think she's a demon?] Luo Hanchu sent her another message, probably thinking that if she dared to provoke him, she must be prepared to bear the consequences. Li Yirou certainly thought so.
Chen Mengdie did not have that kind of aura, like the beast soul of Suzaku in the previous space, and the beast soul of Xuanwu in the light column now. Even if only the soul was left, it would make people with keen spiritual awareness like her feel a bit of awe and a sense of closeness.
As for this little girl, Li Yirou could only say that she had no feelings for her. She didn't think she was particularly dangerous, nor did she develop any affection for her because she was young, cute, and pretty.
Everyone walked forward in silence. Luo Hanchu stretched out his hand to signal everyone to stop. Chen Mengdie, who was distracted, accidentally bumped into Xuan Wu's back.
The female Buddhist cultivator in front of her hurriedly helped her to her feet and smiled at her gently. Chen Mengdie felt that apart from the woman who clung to the male cultivator and spoke harshly, the rest of them didn't seem that annoying.
"No wonder the Thunder Spider left the Thunder Spirit Tree just now. It turns out it's going to give birth to little spiders." Li Yirou saw a spider web appear between two tree trunks in the distance. The Thunder Spider's legs were crawling around like it was weaving a piece of cloth.
The Thunder Spider only weaves a web before laying eggs. The few people watched for a moment and silently changed direction.
"Aren't you...going to take this opportunity to kill it?" Chen Mengdie's eyes were filled with confusion. She seemed to not understand why several people chose to leave so tacitly when given such a good opportunity.
You should know that giving birth is the most vulnerable time for the Thunder Spider. Unlike other monsters that have males to protect them, some spiritual beasts like spiders will eat the males during mating and store the spiritual power in their bodies.
After giving birth, it will become extremely ferocious to protect its cubs, and the spiritual power it has swallowed up from the male's reserves will also be released at this time, making it very difficult to deal with.
"God is merciful and kind." Xuan Wu said softly. She didn't just say this, she actually did it.
Li Yiru and the others would occasionally take the initiative to kill monsters for spirit stones or training, but Xuan Wu would never do so unless it was for self-protection.
However, they had no intention of killing the spirit spider in front of them.
"Reach the extreme of emptiness, maintain absolute stillness. All things work together, and I observe their return." This sentence means that you should not pursue personal desires too much and obscure your original heart. All things in the world work together, and you can observe the cyclical nature of the way.
Li Yirou deliberately patted her small shoulder, "Didn't Qingxiao Sect teach you?"
Chen Mengdie looked up at her with an unconvinced look on her face, but she knew in her heart that these people were not simple and were also very perceptive.
But why did she reveal the flaw? She looked at her own hands, which were white and tender, so perfect.
Humans seem to be different from the demon world. They don't seem to be fighting with each other all the time, competing for who is the boss.
Several people cared about each other and took care of her as well. They took advantage of this weakness, disguised themselves as monks, tried to gain sympathy, and took the opportunity to blend into the team and guide them.
"My senior sister sent me a message." She raised her eyes again and looked at Li Yiru. This time, there was less innocence and uneasiness, only depth.
This is, no plans to take action?
"Then take care." Li Yirou smiled at her, but Si Xu was still worried. "We should go with you, or wait here. How can you go alone..."
Before he could finish his words, Luo Hanchu pulled him over and said, "Little Si Xu, are you becoming more and more worried as you get older?"
"Luo Hanchu, you're several years older than me!" Si Xu punched him on the shoulder. "Who else is as worrying as you, nagging about this and that all day long?"
Xuan Wu bowed to Chen Mengdie to say goodbye. Master Xuan Wu didn't talk much, but she was willing to follow the crowd. She didn't refute anything others said.
Li Yirou and Ji Shiyan just glanced at Chen Mengdie and turned away.
"Don't..." She said a word. Li Yirou turned around and saw the child's expression full of regret. She didn't know if it was a hint, but she couldn't help but ask: "Don't what?"
Chen Mengdie shook her head. "Nothing."
The beautiful female cultivator in front of her frowned slightly, thinking about a word she couldn't bear to utter, but she couldn't explain it clearly.
Did she soften her heart just because a few people were kind? It was the human race that had sealed them in the wasteland.
But what does the past have to do with these people in front of me?
"I just think that you have a high level of cultivation, so you can actually go deeper." After saying that, Chen Mengdie didn't dare to stay any longer and disappeared into the bushes beside him.
