A breeze blew, and Wei Xicheng sniffed his nose. He smelled blood. His five senses were not strong, and his physical fitness greatly limited him.
He looked at Purple Taoist calmly. He could smell the blood, but Purple Taoist remained indifferent.
Wei Xicheng spoke calmly, sniffing twice deliberately, "Master, do you smell anything?"
"What's that smell?" Taoist Zi narrowed his eyes, and two sharp rays of light shot out from them. This was the strong and domineering side of his character that he had been hiding before.
"Blood." Wei Xicheng took two steps back and covered his mouth and nose. "It smells terrible."
"Where are they from?" Taoist Zi took out two yellow talismans from his arms with an alert look. He knew that he was in luck today.
"Over there." Wei Xicheng did not lie this time. He pointed to the depths of the red soil. The strong smell of blood was indeed coming from there, but he could not see anything over there.
His left eyelid twitched, and Wei Xicheng had a bad feeling.
As expected, Taoist Zi grabbed the back of his clothes and said, "Little Taoist friend, lead the way. Let's go and take a look."
"I think this place is a bit weird, why don't we go back?" Wei Xicheng secretly exerted force, and the hand on the back of his collar did not move at all.
"You haven't found your friend yet." Taoist Zi smiled, and his originally kind smile seemed more and more weird in such an environment.
Wei Xicheng's heart sank, fearing that this man came to him for ulterior motives, and that his real intention was to find Yu Beiyan, in addition to approaching him to remove the restriction.
But now that he is under someone's control, Wei Xicheng has no choice. What he did just now was just a simple test. Now that he understands how scheming Zi Daoren is, he will not sit idly by and wait for death.
Wei Xicheng stepped onto the red soil that he had not stepped on before, and felt a chill coming from the soles of his feet and spreading to his whole body. The chill seemed to penetrate into his bones, making him shiver suddenly.
"Your friend is really amazing." Zi Dao Ren thought he was just afraid, but now he had no reason to hide it anymore. "Even though he was injured, he was still able to escape from me. But it was also thanks to you. The bead was not enough for me to find him, but it allowed me to find you."
"I didn't expect that the aura on you is even more than that on the beads. It's true that after searching high and low for something, it finally comes to me without any effort." Taoist Zi turned his hand over and no longer pinched Wei Xicheng's collar, but directly grabbed his neck.
Wei Xicheng's eyes looked strange for a moment, but then he suppressed them. The coldness seemed to have used his body as a conductor, and when the Purple Taoist touched his skin, the coldness actually flowed along his body through the Purple Taoist's palm.
It was obvious where it flowed to. Although this cold breath did not stay in Wei Xicheng's body, it still made him shiver. On the other hand, the purple Taoist had more and more airflow under his feet, but he himself did not notice the strangeness at all.
Wei Xicheng pursed his lips and was almost carried forward by the Purple Taoist. He deliberately did not look at the two people's feet, so as not to be discovered by the Purple Taoist.
"When this matter is over, I will not treat you unfairly." As if seeing the benefits he had gained, Taoist Zi smiled, his face was as clear as the wind and bright as the moon. At this moment, he was quite a master. "My junior brother just needs a body with good potential. You are taking advantage of it."
After hearing this, Wei Xicheng's eyes completely turned cold. It seems that the restrictions in his body were not clearly explained in the original plot. The "expert" who passed by was not only kind enough to cover up his strange physique, but also had other intentions for the original body.
Protecting the original body is only for one's own selfish reasons.
However, Wei Xicheng still didn’t know what had happened between Yu Beiyan and his two Taoist fellow disciples.
The two walked at a fast pace, but they still didn't reach the source of the bloody smell after walking for two or three hours. Even a fool could find something wrong here.
Although this is on the edge of the city, there wouldn't be such a large area of wasteland with no human habitation.
Taoist Zi took out the compass again, took a quick look at it and put it away, "No wonder."
Wei Xicheng didn't say anything, but just changed his pace with Zi Daoren. The two of them circled around in the same place for a few times, and the scene in front of them suddenly became clear.
But it was just that the first sight of this made Wei Xicheng's eyes hurt. The overwhelming red color came towards him, accompanied by a strong smell of rust. Wei Xicheng cleared his throat twice. The smell of blood was so strong that it made it difficult for him to breathe.
When he finally got used to the environment, Wei Xicheng's pupils couldn't help but shrink. He saw Yu Beiyan curled up next to a stone, his body slightly tilted from the stone, his hands on his chest, and an extremely painful expression.
Yu Beiyan seemed not to notice someone coming. He kept his eyes tightly closed and did not move.
Wei Xicheng tried his best to control his expression, but the Purple Taoist still found out something. The Purple Taoist did not question him, but just took out a talisman and smeared it over his eyes. His pupils turned into a dark color, and even the whites of his eyes disappeared.
"Found it." Taoist Zi threw Wei Xicheng to the ground and walked quickly towards Yu Beiyan, "Today I will let you know who is the one you can't afford to offend."
When Yu Beiyan heard the voice, his eyes widened. The fierce look in the voice made Zi Daoren pause slightly. Then he noticed his own pause and became even more angry.
Wei Xicheng forced himself to endure the biting cold and opened the system panel. The energy bar was still very low. He supported himself on the ground with his hands, feeling the power left by his original body, and gradually drawing the coldness on the ground into his own body.
"Don't." Yu Beiyan snorted, then forced himself to stand up. He said to Zi Dao Ren, "I have no intention of getting entangled with you, why are you chasing me so closely?"
Yu Beiyan has never been a person who procrastinates, but at this moment he has to do so. Wei Xicheng's body has too many limitations in this world, and he can't let Wei Xicheng take risks here.
Once the system forcibly counterattacks, all their efforts will be in vain.
"I'm just curious about how you increase your strength. Just tell me and I'll give you a quick death." Taoist Zi laughed. Yu Beiyan was of no use to him. He could see that this man had an extremely strong willpower and was not easy to be refined.
But he recalled the scene he and his junior brother saw that day, and couldn't help but continue with Yu Beiyan's words. He had never seen a ghost that could devour all energy bodies, and he had never heard of a method that could enhance its own strength just by devouring. This news made the two brothers itchy.
If you get this method, you can ascend to heaven step by step by raising a little ghost.
Yu Beiyan took his hand off his chest, pointed at Wei Xichen who was lying on the ground and said, "Let him go first, and I'll tell you."
Taoist Zi cleared his throat twice and said, "Him? He can leave." But he is just an ordinary person, and he can find him anytime as long as he wants to.
Yu Beiyan walked past the Purple Taoist and headed towards Wei Xicheng. The Purple Taoist shouted coldly, "Stop!"
"I'll have a few words with him, don't be nervous."
Taoist Zi's face turned pale and he stared at the two of them.
Yu Beiyan walked to Wei Xicheng and lowered his voice, "Didn't I promise you that I wouldn't be in a hurry? Don't act on impulse. Even if it doesn't work now, it can be done in the next world. Be obedient and go back first."
What he said was true, but his spirit was weakened by half when he tried to fight against the rules of heaven and earth created by the system. Later, when he recovered his strength, he met Zi Daoren and his fellow apprentices. In a fierce battle, his fellow apprentices were killed, but Zi Daoren was intact.
Yu Beiyan struggled hard and barely escaped, but he never expected that the red bead he accidentally dropped became a prop for Purple Taoist to find Wei Xicheng.
He smiled and knelt on one knee beside Wei Xicheng. If this was the case, he would definitely not take the bead away just because of jealousy.
Now he was very calm. This world might be the last one he could stay in, but for Wei Xicheng, it was not. He had already controlled most of the system. As long as Wei Xicheng put in some effort, he would definitely be able to find the remaining loopholes and overcome them. Sooner or later, he would be able to return to that real world.
Even so, Yu Beiyan still didn't want Wei Xicheng to suffer at all, and even more so didn't want him to watch him disappear.
"Be good, I'll find you in the next world, okay?" Yu Beiyan condensed a mental force and lightly wiped it on Wei Xicheng's eyes.
Wei Xicheng's eyes turned cold, and when he opened them again, Yu Beiyan had disappeared. He looked at the Purple Taoist next to him, and could tell from the Purple Taoist's eyes that Yu Beiyan was still by his side, but he could no longer see him.
The large area of red, the rushing air currents, and the strong and pungent smell of blood all disappeared. Wei Xicheng was panicked, but he didn't expect that Zi Daoren was even more furious than him.
"What a waste of resources!" Taoist Zi rushed over.
Wei Xicheng jumped to the side reflexively, and it was exactly where Yu Beiyan was just now.
The system suddenly popped up a window, and the slot that symbolized energy was instantly filled up, and the additional energy slot that was originally empty was also instantly filled up.
Wei Xicheng couldn't see the situation in front of him, but he could tell Yu Beiyan's counterattack from the purple Taoist's retreating steps.
"What's going on?" Wei Xicheng said.
Taoist Zi's face was so gloomy that it seemed as if water seemed to drip out. He looked coldly in the direction of Wei Xicheng without saying a word.
Wei Xicheng took advantage of this opportunity and instantly improved his physical fitness to the highest level allowed by this world.
Wei Xicheng stood up and calmly called the ghost's name, "Yu Beiyan."
A laugh was heard, and Wei Xicheng's eyes felt cold again.
"You are really my lucky star."
