Li Qingrong thought about it carefully: "Let's go in the opposite direction."
Jiang Yuetong nodded and turned around without hesitation.
The three of them turned back and took the furthest route from the previous one.
As time passed, night soon fell.
Several people sat around the fire.
As Jiang Yuetong was recalling what had happened in the illusion, Lu Jingliang, who was opposite her, kept glancing at her, wondering if Jiang Yuetong had remembered something.
Li Qingrong looked back and forth between the two people opposite her with a curious gaze, and suddenly felt that she was superfluous.
At this moment, none of the three spoke, and the surroundings were unusually quiet, as if a pin dropping on the ground could be heard clearly.
Li Qingrong couldn't stay still any longer.
She slowly got up and walked around. As if thinking of something, she said, "How strange, there isn't a single bird or beast calling out in this huge forest."
Jiang Yuetong nodded and said "Mmm".
She naturally noticed that something was wrong here, and secretly scanned the area several times with her divine sense, but did not detect any danger.
In this situation, either there is no real danger, or the opponent is stronger than her.
They still need to be careful.
Jiang Yuetong looked at Li Qingrong with her dark eyes and said in a light tone, "Don't go too far."
Upon hearing this, Li Qingrong quickly ran back and sat down. She opened her mouth to speak when she heard a cat meowing from not far away.
The three of them immediately stood up and looked at each other in bewilderment.
Jiang Yuetong produced a long whip and lashed it to the ground. Her eyes turned toward a dark direction, and she said in an icy voice, "Come out!"
Meow~ Meow~
A white cat gradually came into their view.
Soon, the air was filled with the stench of blood.
Seeing the white cat lick the blood from its mouth, Jiang Yuetong's eyes flashed with wariness. She took out a luminous pearl from her spatial storage and threw it over.
With a "thud," the luminous pearl fell to the ground.
The white cat seemed startled by the sound, and dragged the exposed arm from the ground away.
Li Qingrong frowned and stared wide-eyed, suddenly feeling nauseous. She covered her mouth with her hand and said, "That looks like a person..."
Jiang Yuetong chased after him: "Keep up close!"
These words were spoken to Li Qingrong.
As for Lü Jingliang, even a Demon Emperor like him couldn't keep up with this speed; she could laugh at him for the rest of her life.
The white cat, running in the lead, sped up when it saw someone chasing it.
Three people and a cat were chasing each other in the forest.
The next day.
The runaway white cat came to a castle and crawled through a dog hole in the corner.
Jiang Yuetong and the others immediately stopped and looked up at the pitch-black sky above the castle, where no sunlight could be seen.
At that moment, the castle gate suddenly opened, and Jiang Yuetong quickly reached out to pull Li Qingrong away.
Lü Jingliang: "..."
Do you want to take a look at me?
Two men emerged from the castle and stopped on the steps. The middle-aged man sighed softly.
He said with a slightly stern face, "The number of women you've been sending recently has been decreasing, and they're also not very attractive. The island lord is very dissatisfied with this."
Upon hearing this, the old man opposite was so frightened that he quickly bowed towards the castle and said in a trembling voice, "It is our fault that we failed to satisfy the island lord."
The middle-aged man snorted coldly as soon as he finished speaking.
"The island lord has instructed that you should send more people over in three days."
Upon hearing this, the old man looked troubled.
But in the end, he agreed: "Yes, we will expand our search and find some beautiful women to send over as soon as possible."
