Cang Yu saw that Lilia had woken up with tears in her eyes and was sobbing, so he hurried forward, took her into his arms and comforted her.
"Don't be afraid, Lilia. I have killed the phantom beast. It can no longer hurt Lilia."
He just thought that Lilia was scared, after all, she was almost killed by the phantom beast.
Even an adult dragon would be frightened if faced with such a thing, let alone she is just a cub, whose psychological endurance is even more fragile.
Little did we know that Lilia cried so sadly because her parents disappeared, not because she was afraid.
When Lilia heard his words, she was a little confused. She stopped crying and asked stutteringly, "What...what fantasy beast?"
When the phantom beast attacked Lilia, she was trapped in an illusion and had no idea what was happening in the outside world. When she woke up, she and Cang Yu were the only ones in the cave. The phantom beast had long since turned into a pile of powder, so she had no idea what kind of danger she had just experienced.
If Cang Yu had not appeared in time, her neck would have been cut and she would have died.
Cang Yu felt helpless. The little girl didn't even realize that she was in danger. If he hadn't been worried about her and left a trace of his soul on her body, she would have been cut in the throat by the phantom beast and would not know how she died.
After all, she is still too young. Even though her strength is now considered among the strong ones, she still lacks experience.
If she could realize that she was in an illusion, even if the phantom beast was one level higher than her, it would not be able to hurt her.
After all, she is a dragon, and she has a natural suppression over the opponent in terms of blood.
He said, "You fell into the illusion created by the phantom beast. The phantom beast trapped you in the illusion and wanted to attack you when you were not paying attention. If I hadn't appeared in time to interrupt its plan, your little neck would have been cut off by its claws."
It wasn't that Cang Yu wanted to scare Lilia on purpose, but what he said was true. The level of that phantom beast was level 5, which was one level higher than her, so no matter how hard her dragon scales were, they could not block the opponent's attack.
Then, Cang Yu explained to Lilia what a fantasy beast was.
The so-called fantasy beast is a mid-level monster that is good at hiding and creating illusions. The illusions they create are based on people's inner thoughts. People who fall into the illusion will easily get lost and trapped in it because it is what they desire most in their hearts.
The phantom beast attacks its prey when the prey is trapped and immersed in the illusion.
If a person is fragile or has a weak will, he or she will be easily controlled by the phantom beast.
Upon hearing this, Lilia stopped crying immediately. It turned out that everything she had seen before was fake, an illusion created by the phantom beast.
But she felt that everything was so real. She really thought for a moment that she had returned to the magical continent and to her parents.
If Uncle Cangyu had not killed the phantom beast, the illusion would have disappeared with the death of the phantom beast. She would have been trapped in the illusion and unable to get out. Then, she would have been attacked by the phantom beast without her knowledge and didn't even realize how she died.
Thinking of this, Lilia felt a little scared.
She believed that Cang Yu would not lie to her, so she believed what he said.
Moreover, after she calmed down, she smelled a strange smell in the cave besides her and Cang Yu's. Besides that, she also smelled a strong smell of blood.
That must have been left behind by the phantom beast.
"Thank you Uncle Cangyu for saving Lilia again."
If he hadn't appeared, she would have died without knowing how.
Uncle Cangyu saved Lilia once again. It was such a great favor that Lilia felt she didn't know when she could ever repay him.
Until he finds a way to return to the magical continent, she will always be by his side and won't let him be alone anymore.
"No need to thank me, this is what I should do." Cang Yu rubbed her head lovingly and said.
When he helps Lilia, he is actually helping himself.
Before he met the little girl Lilia, he actually had no attachment to this world. If he hadn't carried the heavy burden of the dragon clan on his shoulders and didn't want the dragon clan to disappear from this world, he would have gone with his clansmen long ago.
As long as he is alive, the dragon race will never become extinct.
It is this belief that has always supported him.
But if you are alone for a long time, you will inevitably feel lonely, and you will miss the lively scenes when your tribesmen were still alive.
It was Lilia's arrival that changed him and made him feel that life was fun.
Although Lilia was not a dragon from this world and looked a little different from him, they still had many similarities. What's more, he felt inexplicably close to her, and that was enough.
Cang Yu did not blame her for being careless, but just warned her: "Okay, it's okay, but you have to be more careful in the future. You must always be vigilant outside no matter what, and don't put yourself in danger."
"Lilia understands." Lilia nodded obediently.
After this lesson, she will be more vigilant when she is alone outside in the future and will not let such a thing happen again.
She couldn't help but wonder in her heart, she had always felt that something was spying on her, could that thing be the monster called Huanshou?
I have to say, Lilia's guess was right. From the moment she entered the forest, the phantom beast had been targeting her and treated her as its prey.
