"It's alright, Master. Please tell me what this thing is." Baili Xijiang got up from the ground and patted his clothes.
Song Tingwan then told them about everything described in the book and the things she had encountered before.
After hearing this, Qin Xi was especially angry.
The round-faced girl gritted her teeth angrily, flicked her wrist, and the hidden weapons flew towards the monster in unison.
Thousands of needles were fired simultaneously.
The beast cried out in pain as it was pricked into a hedgehog and fell to the ground. But as soon as the needles were slowly pushed out and fell to the ground, the needle holes on the beast's body healed instantly.
"this--"
"Why can it heal itself?"
Qin Xi was furious; if one attempt wasn't enough, he wanted to try other weapons.
Song Tingwan stopped her, "If the key parts cannot be separated, the flesh and blood of the monster can heal itself."
Therefore, the senior disciple of the Sword Inquiry Sect can behead someone with a single sword strike, and once the head and body are separated, it is difficult for them to heal on their own.
"Then I'll chop it down!"
In a moment of impulsiveness, Qin Xi also pulled out a knife about the length of his arm. If he hadn't been stopped, he would have rushed forward and chopped the pitiful, cowering beast to pieces.
Song Tingwan tried to hug her waist, "There are rules in the cultivation world that beasts cannot be killed."
"So we're just going to let them lie like this!" Qin Xi was so angry that she choked up, her emotions running high.
There's a reason for that.
They all noticed this keenly, but it wasn't a good time for a heart-to-heart talk.
Baili Xijiang hurriedly told her to calm down, but Pei Xiang'an remembered what Song Tingwan had said earlier, "Junior Sister Song, do you want to capture it and hand it over to the sect for disposal?"
Since the eldest brother dared to kill the mythical beast with a single sword strike, the Sword Inquiry Sect must have the confidence to do so.
However, they are only outer disciples, and they cannot be allowed to kill the mythical beasts.
Song Tingwan nodded, took Qin Xi's hand holding the knife, and gently took the knife away. "But we still lack some evidence. Based on the distance of this cave and the persecution suffered by the people of Sui Village over the years, it is certain that this beast has committed many crimes, most likely in the surrounding cities. So we need to collect evidence now."
"I'll go." Qin Xi leaned against her, raising his hand with tears blurring his vision and choking back sobs.
Song Tingwan nodded in agreement. "How about I go with you?"
"Then you and Wan Qiji will go together, and Senior Brother Pei and I will go to another city."
As soon as Baili Xijiang finished speaking, Pei Xiang'an and Song Tingwan objected simultaneously.
Song Tingwan raised an eyebrow, signaling Pei Xiang'an to speak.
“…This beast is cunning and needs to be guarded. Besides, after reporting to the sect, someone needs to stay here to explain the situation.”
"My idea is that the two junior sisters stay behind, and the three of us go to the two cities separately to collect evidence."
After Pei Xiang'an finished speaking, he said seriously to Qin Xi, who wanted to object, "Junior Sister Qin's emotions have not yet calmed down, and this beast has not been interrogated yet. Keeping it alive is still very useful. When dealing with the people from the sect, we also need someone like Junior Sister Qin who is good at socializing to explain the situation."
Song Tingwan's thoughts were more indulgent towards Qin Xi. She was also aware of the many trump cards and defensive artifacts she had, but Pei Xiang'an felt that it was somewhat inappropriate for an emotionally unstable artifact cultivator and medical cultivator to go looking for someone who had been deceived, especially since she had been deceived by a medical cultivator.
He said this again, and no one objected. Qin Xi also came to his senses and nodded.
First, they reported to the sect, and then the three of them set off on the spot, leaving Song Tingwan and the calmer Qin Xi behind.
In the corner, there was a mythical beast, tightly bound by the three who had left, ensuring it would have no further chance to harm its two teammates.
"...Wan'er, I was too emotional just now, did I scare you?"
The cave remained silent for a long time. Qin Xi lowered her eyes, and the usually lively and cheerful girl seemed to be somewhat sad.
