Lilia was flying, and suddenly she smelled a scent of blood in the wind, so she stopped and decided to take a good sniff to see if she was smelling it wrong.
Lingyu was chasing Lilia from behind. Although it noticed her sudden stop, it was flying very fast in order to catch up with Lilia, so it had no time to brake and crashed into Lilia.
So it immediately cried out "Aiya".
Fortunately, it reacted quickly and steadied its body, so it didn't fall.
Ling Yu asked curiously: "Lilia, why did you stop suddenly?"
Lilia looked at it with concern and asked, "Lingyu, are you okay?"
Because Lilia's body is bigger than Lingyu, and her cultivation is much higher than Lingyu's, Lingyu's collision did not have much impact on her.
"I'm fine, but Lilia, why did you stop so suddenly just now? You scared me."
When Lilia heard it say that it was fine, she felt relieved and told it her discovery.
"I seemed to smell blood just now, so I stopped to confirm whether I smelled it wrong or it was real."
After hearing what Lilia said, Lingyu took a deep breath and sniffed the air.
But it didn't smell any blood.
"Lilia, maybe you are mistaken, I smelled it, but I didn't detect any bloody smell at all."
However, Lilia sniffed again and found that just as Lingyu said, there was indeed no smell of blood in the air.
She murmured, "Could it be that I smelled it wrongly..."
"Oh, never mind. Let's go."
After Lingyu finished speaking, he flew in front of her.
After hearing this, Lilia stopped hesitating and followed it.
But she stopped after flying less than a hundred meters and said to Lingyu, "Lingyu, why don't we go down and take a look? I feel something is wrong."
Although she did not smell the blood later, she did smell it at the beginning. Moreover, she remembered that there was wind when she smelled it for the first time, but there was no wind later, so she thought that the smell of blood was brought by the wind.
"Okay, let's go check it out."
Seeing that she wanted to go and see so much, Lingyu didn't refuse.
It won’t waste much time.
So they flew down to check.
They didn't smell it at first when they were high in the sky, but when they got closer to the ground, they really smelled a strong smell of blood.
It seems that Lilia was not wrong.
But how could there be such a strong smell of blood in this remote place?
Moreover, the bloody smell does not seem to be the blood of a monster, but rather the smell of human blood!
Thinking of this, Lilia and Lingyu couldn't help but look at each other, with shock in each other's eyes.
Lilia and Lingyu are close to humans, and Lingyu has even signed a contract with human monks. Therefore, they are different from those bad-tempered, man-eating monsters, but the spiritual beasts in the eyes of humans.
It is generally recognized in the world of cultivation that demon beasts are bad, while spirit beasts are good.
Lilia and Lingyu followed the direction where the smell of blood came from and saw a row of buildings in front of them.
"Is that a village?" Lingyu said.
Lilia also saw the houses and thought that it was indeed a village.
“It is indeed a village.”
They flew towards the village, but the closer they got to the village, the stronger the smell of blood became.
It was obvious that the smell of blood came from this village.
Perhaps this village has encountered an accident.
Sure enough, when they approached the village, they found it in a dilapidated state, as if it had been attacked by something. The village was covered with dried blood, but the village was empty, and not even a dead body was seen.
"This village must have been attacked by monsters." Ling Yu said.
Judging from the freshness of the blood, it can be guessed that the village was attacked not long ago, and it should have happened today.
"Let's go." Lingyu said.
Hearing this, Lilia nodded and prepared to leave.
Just as she was about to take off, she suddenly heard a slight noise, so she hushed to Lingyu, signaling it not to make any sound.
Although Lingyu didn't know what she was going to do, he stood still obediently without making any sound.
Then it saw Lilia walking cautiously towards a haystack in front of a house.
Lilia came to the haystack and stretched out her claws to pull the hay apart.
The person hiding in the haystack was exposed.
The child was not very old and looked to be no more than six or seven years old. At this moment, the child was looking at Lilia in front of him with horror, and his little body was shaking constantly.
"Wow--"
Perhaps because he was too scared, the child finally couldn't jump anymore and started crying.
Seeing this, Lilia couldn't help but get nervous and said, "Why are you crying?"
However, the child did not answer her at all and cried even louder.
"Don't cry."
Seeing this, Lilia said this in a rather dry tone.
It’s just that she doesn’t know how to coax a child. After all, she is still a baby herself.
Lingyu also came over and looked at the child hiding in the haystack with curiosity.
I think this child must be a survivor of this village.
Maybe he knows what happened in this village.
But there was nothing it could do to let him keep crying like this, and it gave it a headache to hear him cry.
