With tears welling up in his eyes, Bai Ze stopped flailing his limbs and stared blankly at the fluttering robes at the corner.
When the burly man saw that he had suddenly shut up, he immediately frowned in displeasure.
The burly man squeezed the claws that had scratched his face and said in a deep voice, "Are you scared and not talking?"
"If that's the case, then you should come with us. It's better than staying with your useless master."
Upon mentioning Qi Wenyao, whom he had swatted away, the burly man burst into laughter again, "So what if he's the young master of the Qi family? He's over two hundred years old and still only at the Integration Stage, truly a piece of trash!"
"Lucky cat, only by following this protector can you enjoy the best food and drink."
"When you help me find the totem, I'll help you discuss with the Demon Lord and ask him to help you take human form. In the future, you'll be under the Demon Clan's command. How about that?"
Before Bai Ze could answer, a clear voice rang in everyone's ears.
"Not good."
A group of burly men looked up at the corner, following the sound of voices.
Then there stood a girl dressed in a moon-white robe, whose figure and appearance were both outstanding.
Her red lips curved upwards, and her gaze towards the kitten in the burly man's hand softened.
After their eyes met again, Bai Ze could no longer control his emotions and burst into tears.
"Sheng Ning, I miss you!"
Nearly half a year has passed.
Bai Ze finally saw the person he had been longing for again.
Seeing that she was surrounded by a rich spiritual aura and was more lively and vibrant than before, he couldn't stop the tears from falling from his eyes.
As Sheng Ning walked around the corner, if it weren't for the inappropriate occasion, she would have rushed forward to hug the kitten and give it a good rub.
Unexpectedly, on his very first day after emerging from seclusion, he saw Bai Ze in big trouble.
A silent sigh escaped her throat, and she smiled, "Lord Bai Ze, I miss you too."
The burly man's gaze followed Bai Ze's and fell on Sheng Ning.
Upon hearing Sheng Ning call the kitten in his arms "Lord Bai Ze," the burly man couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Hahahaha...
"Lord Bai Ze? The divine beast Bai Ze? And this little cat?"
The burly man behind him joined in the sneer, "A talking kitten can be called Lord Bai Ze?"
"Then can I call myself the Heavenly Dao?"
"I call myself the Demon Lord, pshaw!"
Sheng Ning was already used to this kind of scene. She blinked, ignoring the sneers of the burly men, and instead met Bai Ze's pitiful cat-like eyes.
"Lord Bai Ze, don't be afraid. After I deal with these demonic cultivators, I will take you home."
Upon seeing Sheng Ning again, Bai Ze was completely different from the person who had been commanding Qi Wenyao earlier.
As if he had taken a reassuring pill, he believed that Sheng Ning would definitely take him back to the Qi family safely.
But it's one thing for Bai Ze to believe it, and quite another for the demonic cultivators to hear Sheng Ning's words.
The burly man had just slapped Qi Wenyao away, and the latter, a sword cultivator at the sixth level of the Integration Stage, was still no match for him.
Could Sheng Ning, a cultivator who has just entered the ninth level of the Golden Core stage, possibly defeat him?
With a hint of disdain in his eyes, the burly man grabbed Bai Ze in his palm, and when he looked up and met Sheng Ning's gaze, his eyes clearly showed disdain.
"Young friend, have you thought this through? You've just entered the ninth level of the Golden Core stage. I see you're still young and have a bright future ahead of you. Are you really going to attack me?"
Sheng Ning was in a hurry to pet the cat and didn't want to waste time talking to him.
She summoned Peashooter and Mines from her spiritual space and gestured with her chin toward the burly man.
"I don't have much time, so you might as well all come at me at once."
What an arrogant tone.
After hearing what she said, the burly man's eyes widened, and his gaze towards her became filled with disdain.
Could a single Golden Core cultivator possibly wipe out all of them?
A roar came from his throat, and before the burly man could unleash his natal magic weapon, a beam of red light suddenly shot towards him.
The rate of fire was too fast. Even though he was a demonic cultivator at the fifth level of the Nascent Soul stage, he was shot in the knee before he could even dodge because Sheng Ning's attack speed was too fast.
"ah--"
"I kill you!"
The burning sensation immediately enraged the burly man.
He charged toward Sheng Ning, carrying his natal magic weapon.
Throughout this time, Sheng Ning kept firing her Peashooter, while her other hand was also throwing small landmines into the group of burly men.
Qi Wenyao, who was sent flying, was jolted awake.
He looked up and saw a familiar figure standing not far away.
He thought he was hallucinating because he had suffered internal injuries.
After rubbing his eyes and confirming that he hadn't misread it, an excited expression immediately appeared on his face.
"Sheng Ning! It really is you! You've emerged from seclusion!"
At this moment, Sheng Ning had no time to reminisce with him. Facing a demonic cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, she was naturally no match for him.
If she hadn't used a feint and attacked the demonic cultivator while he was off guard, he would have been sent flying by now.
Her face was tense, and she said in a deep voice, "Enough with the nonsense, take out the laser cannon and make your move."
The secret realm is about to open, and the number of cultivators in the city is increasing.
The commotion on the street was quite significant.
A cultivator peered out of a restaurant or inn and saw Sheng Ning and Qi Wenyao fighting one-on-one against a group of demonic cultivators.
Moreover, the combined cultivation levels of the two were no match for that protector, causing the onlookers to shake their heads and sigh.
"What a pity, I think that male cultivator is the young master of the Qi family, right?"
"So young, yet he's offended a demonic cultivator. I heard he has quite a bit of talent, what a pity..."
"Who is that girl next to the young master of the Qi family? She looks completely unfamiliar to me. And what kind of magical artifact is she holding? Why have I never seen it before?"
......
Whispers could be heard from all around.
There were many onlookers, but no one came forward to help.
After all, everyone has gathered here at this time to enter the Northern Secret Realm in search of rare and precious treasures.
If they're lucky, they might even find a totem and become saviors.
Therefore, they are only willing to watch the excitement, but not to step forward and help.
The laser cannon has an inexhaustible supply of projectiles.
As long as Sheng Ning and his companion still possess spiritual energy, the laser cannon can operate indefinitely.
In addition, Sheng Ning has entered the ninth level of the Golden Core stage and is about to break through to the Nascent Soul stage. His cultivation level has increased dramatically, and he also has five spiritual roots.
The spiritual energy is inexhaustible.
The group of demonic cultivators thought that the fighting would stop after a while.
Unexpectedly, Sheng Ning and his companion did not stop. Instead of throwing small landmines, Sheng Ning switched to using a Gatling gun.
The clattering sound of bullets firing from the gun barrel suddenly rang out on the street.
Like setting off firecrackers during the Lunar New Year, it attracted a lot of attention.
Just as the group of demonic cultivators were beaten into submission and were about to reveal themselves and attack Sheng Ning and his companion in a fit of rage.
At the very corner where Sheng Ning had just appeared, another large beam of laser light shot towards them.
"Aaaaaah, what the hell is this?!"
