"Hey, hey, what are you doing? Let go of me first, let's talk this out. But it's good that you're here, I'm currently discussing joining Xu Yuehuai's team. Don't worry, I definitely won't forget you. I brought you along when we were discussing things, so don't worry! We've known each other for so many years, I definitely won't abandon you." In Hei Sha's eyes, Bai Sha had a kind of naive charm, but he didn't dare say it in public. After all, saying that Bai Sha wasn't smart in public was just a slap in his own face. Only a fool would do something like that.
"Come with me first, I have something to say to you." Seeing that he couldn't pull her away, Hei Sha could only try to awaken her conscience with his words.
Bai Sha glanced at Xu Yuehuai's retreating figure with reluctance. Xu Yuehuai went upstairs, and once she was upstairs, she could no longer be seen. Only after she could no longer see Xu Yuehuai did Bai Sha withdraw her gaze and leave with Hei Sha.
After going upstairs, Nangong Yu immediately ran over and looked Xu Yuehuai up and down. "Senior Sister, that crazy woman didn't do anything bad to you, did she? If anything happened, you must tell me!"
Xu Yuehuai shook her head, "No, don't worry."
Not long after Bai Sha left, Fu Ziyi and his group returned. Shangguan Xi finally saw Xu Yuehuai and gave her a bear hug, hugging her tightly while complaining about what she had just encountered and how scared she was. The other people just stood there, watching the two of them hugging each other as if no one else was around. No one said anything and they all watched them quietly.
Xu Yuehuai felt a little embarrassed and pulled her off him. Nangong Yu frowned when he heard about the color-changing forest, "Is this thing really that magical?"
“That’s right. There must be some unspeakable secret on this mountain. We don’t know if it’s man-made or for some other reason. Anyway, we thought we’d come back and tell everyone, and then discuss whether to go up the mountain together or choose two people to go up again,” Xuan Chi added.
Fu Ziyi also recounted the situation on their side. When mentioning Ying Ziping, Fu Ziyi gritted his teeth, his face clearly showing a hint of displeasure.
Everyone shared their news, and Shangguan Xi exclaimed in surprise, "Bai Sha? He actually said he wanted to join us? This is a completely different story! I'm already grateful to have met them, and now they're offering to join us. Should we accept?"
Shi Mu turned his head, somewhat puzzled, and said, "Senior Sister, didn't you say they were in danger before? Why did you agree to this now? Aren't you afraid of the danger?"
Shangguan Xi was taken aback by his question. “They are very capable. If they join us, they will definitely help us solve a lot of problems. Moreover, they have been here for so long and know much more than we do. In short, from all angles, letting them join us is a very wise choice.”
Xu Yuehuai hadn't thought about things from this perspective before. She was only focused on getting Bai Sha to stop bothering her and had completely lost her rationality. Now that she thought about it, it wouldn't be a bad thing if Bai Sha could join them.
The matter of Bai Sha was put on hold because she was taken away and given a lecture.
"Bai Sha, what's going on in your head right now? I have no problem with you joining, but can you please not take me with you?" Hei Sha's face showed his displeasure. He said he wanted her to join Xu Yuehuai's team, but the expression on his face when he said this was quite frightening.
Bai Sha pouted and said emotionlessly, "I spend all day with you, but you never help me with anything. Now that I've finally met a beautiful woman who is both cute and capable, you won't let me get close to her. You're just jealous of me, jealous that I have someone to keep me company."
Bai Sha knows everything, but what he says is as absurd as it gets, completely lacking any logic.
"...I think I've been giving you too much of a nice look on a regular basis." The two demons successfully started arguing because White Demon wanted to play with the beauty, but Black Demon felt embarrassed and refused to join in, and even tried to stop White Demon from going either, causing the atmosphere between the two to drop to freezing point.
Bai Sha indeed didn't continue looking for Xu Yuehuai. He spent all his time alone, either pulling weeds or playing in the mud, living a rather leisurely life.
However, seeing her like this made Hei Sha feel a pang of pity for a moment.
...
The secrets behind the demons' descent are still unknown. After discussing it, everyone decided to go to that alleyway first to find those people and ask them what was going on. From Fu Ziyi and the other person's words, it can be inferred that the other party probably only dislikes the Ying family and is not so resistant to others.
Upon arriving at the alleyway, Baili Xiuwen frowned as he compared his drawing with the map he had made, saying, "This place has changed. It wasn't like this before. It's completely different from what I drew on my map. It's definitely not the same place."
Xu Yuehuai took the blueprints and looked at them. It was indeed true. "Could it be that they have already left? We discovered their presence, and for their safety, they had no choice but to leave and find another place?"
Baili Xiuwen made a guess, but he couldn't think of any other reason.
Instantly, everyone who had been in high spirits fell silent.
Ying Ziping appeared when no one was speaking. "Are you all here because you want to go in? Didn't I tell you? It's dangerous in here. Even if there are many of you, it's not okay."
Ying Ziping repeated the same words as before. Fu Ziyi looked at Ying Ziping with murderous intent in his hawk-like eyes, "You really are just like they said, you deserve to die."
Ying Ziping never considers other people's feelings when he speaks, so when he said this, he didn't care at all what Ying Ziping thought. For him, what Ying Ziping thought was not important; what mattered was what Ying Ziping had done in the past.
"What do you mean by that? You've already gone in and checked?" Ying Ziping looked him up and down, as if searching for any marks of injury. When he saw that Fu Ziyi was unharmed, a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes, but he quickly masked it. "I already warned you not to go, but you went anyway, and now you're blaming me for being a bad person. Ha."
Xu Yuehuai remained silent, constantly scrutinizing the person in front of him as Ying Ziping spoke, mentally analyzing his words, actions, and expressions, trying to discern his true purpose.
