Hua Jilai slowly opened his eyes and reached out to remove the talisman stuck to his forehead.
Only then did he gradually see everything clearly and realize how hateful he had just done.
But why did they get here? And why do I have no memory of it?
Helpless, he looked around and saw Luo Fentian bravely killing spiders not far away, and Xie Zhou standing in front of him with a terrified look on his face. It all felt so real, as if he had really come to their side.
When Xie Zhou saw Hua Zilai reach out and remove the bandage from his forehead, he couldn't help but take a few steps back in shock. He kept telling himself that he must keep a certain distance from the person in front of him; he was no longer his disciple.
"Senior brother, come quick! He took the bandage off his forehead himself!"
Because Luo Fentian was blinded by rage, he couldn't hear the sounds coming from the other side at all. He just kept responding, but he didn't understand what was going on.
Hua Zilai kept getting closer. Although Xie Zhou was a little scared, he felt that the person in front of him seemed to have changed.
She was a little confused about why she had this feeling.
Suddenly, a light, airy voice rang out in the sky...
"Master!"
It was only two short words, but enough for the person in front of him to hear clearly. Xie Zhou was about to continue explaining to the people behind him when he suddenly heard this, and his master froze.
Slowly turning his head to look at the boy in front of him, he couldn't help but frown, walked forward and waved to test whether he was really awake.
"Hua Zilai, is it really you?"
Xie Zhou was now completely unable to distinguish whether the boy in front of him was a puppet controlled by a mysterious force or his beloved disciple, Hua Zilai.
If they admit their mistake, there will be no next step. After all, she knows better than anyone how terrifying that mysterious power is, having clashed with it herself.
Therefore, it seems best to be conservative for now; asking is never a bad idea.
After all, if it really was Hua Zilai, he should be able to tell the difference in her behavior at a glance.
The boy nodded slightly, without saying much; this was the real him.
After revealing her identity, she stepped forward, making the master feel how real her skin felt to the touch.
"That's great, I thought you wouldn't wake up before we left."
It seems that if one person can regain consciousness, at least they won't become a burden to more people when they leave.
Luo Fentian already had a hard time with his own injury and illness; if he were to carry two people on his back, wouldn't that be even more troublesome?
"Master, why are you so weak? I can hardly feel your spiritual energy anymore."
The boy panicked instantly, afraid that his master would really leave him, but suddenly he remembered that he was the one who had injured Xie Zhou like this before.
His aggrieved gaze seemed to engulf the entire night. Xie Zhou covered his lips, coughed lightly, and looked at the blue light emanating from all around him.
Although I don't know how this came about, it seems to have helped me heal Hua Zilai at least for now.
This way, they can get out of there, avoiding a potential disaster, and the situation can be restored to normal.
After all, if they had to carry such a disabled and sick person when they went out, they would probably be exhausted.
This situation suits me perfectly. Now, with three people of similar fighting strength going out side by side, the odds of winning are higher than before.
"Master, I'm so sorry. I didn't know what happened just now. I couldn't control myself and didn't know what was going on. My eyes were in darkness, and I hurt you. I'm so sorry, Master..."
The boy's voice grew softer and softer, and his tone became increasingly aggrieved, as if he had been bullied.
Although beating his master would probably bring him a lot of prestige if word got out, the current situation is really hard to predict.
Ultimately, he must have been controlled by a mysterious force, which is why he was able to defeat Xie Zhou.
"Okay, don't worry, I'm fine. I was just a little tired. You don't need to feel too guilty, since you weren't conscious at all, so it's not your fault."
After Xie Zhou finished speaking, he gently stroked the stray hairs on the boy's head. The most urgent thing now was to find an exit as soon as possible. If they continued to kill each other indiscriminately, no one would be able to leave safely.
After all, my senior brother came here for my sake, so there's no need to keep him here.
"Master, where are we now?"
Young man, I've actually wanted to ask this question since just now, because I've had no idea what happened since I opened my eyes.
“We are now in another dimension. I may have accidentally wandered into this place when I was transferring spiritual energy to you. Just now, a mysterious force controlled you, and now there are swarms of spiders. I really don’t understand what will happen next.”
After Xie Zhou explained what had just happened, he asked the boy to look around for a place where he could leave.
Before I could react further, I suddenly felt the surrounding environment shaking violently.
The hollow in the darkness had inexplicably collapsed, and the place that was originally devoid of food was now filled with walls.
This place may exist based on human will; they came here, broke the rules, and therefore will soon face collapse.
"Senior brother, that place is about to collapse. Come over quickly, don't keep fighting with those spiders. There might not have been any spiders here in the first place!"
Xie Zhou now completely understood why they couldn't distinguish between reality and illusion for a moment.
Luo Fentian finally understood what was said and immediately ran back, completely ignoring the pursuit of Zhi Zhu behind him and the collapsing environment.
Judging from this, everything from just now has an answer.
"Junior sister, what should we do next?"
"Spirit Insects!" Xie Zhou shouted, causing the originally tiny spirit insects to grow instantly, becoming a form capable of holding hundreds of them.
The spirit insect opened its back, allowing the three people to enter and stay in the dim environment, so they wouldn't be injured by falling debris.
"Hua Zilai, come quickly and crawl into the spirit insect's body so it can take us out."
Then Luo Fentian grabbed his wrist and pulled him inside. The three of them stayed quietly inside the spirit insect's body, feeling the huge fluctuations outside.
Meanwhile, the leader of the Forgotten Spirit Palace was observing all of this through the teleportation mirror.
