While that was one reason, the bigger reason was that they didn't want the emperor and the people to think that having such a powerful weapon meant they didn't need to train and could just do nothing all day.
"So that's how it is. I was wondering why you and Shuyi didn't use such powerful things. It seems you thought the enemy was too weak. But the bones of these animals are really hard."
If it weren't for his and Yu Bai's internal energy, they wouldn't have been able to decapitate the tiger so easily. It seems they need to cultivate their internal energy more.
"Let's leave here first, otherwise more animals will definitely come later," An Shuyi said from the side.
All she wanted to do now was leave. She thought there were no pythons on this island, but it turned out there were, and they were huge. None of the other animals could handle them, let alone her.
“Then let’s leave this place first. Let’s fly from the trees, don’t walk,” Cheng Yumo said.
He never expected that Shuyi, who was fearless, would be afraid of snakes. Every time she saw one, she would wilted like a frostbitten eggplant and wish she could hide away.
Unfortunately, he didn't dare say it, much less laugh at it, because if he did, his wife would definitely make his life miserable.
Several people flew over the trees and headed forward, only stopping after they had traveled some distance.
“This looks like an uphill slope. Shall we climb to the top and take a look?” Xiao Yubai asked, turning around.
The higher you climb, the farther you can see; perhaps once you reach the top, you'll discover the way out.
“Okay, let’s keep going.” Xia Hua nodded in agreement. “But do you want to rest for a while and recover your strength? Otherwise, it will be tiring to climb up.”
Cheng Yumo shook her head, "No need, we'll rest after we climb until it gets dark." She switched places, carrying the person instead of holding them, making it easier to go uphill.
"Okay, remember to let me know if you get tired."
The climb took several hours. Xiao Yubai and Cheng Yumo used their lightness skills to climb up the tree branches, and they were quite tired after several hours.
We stopped to rest when it started to get dark.
I sat in the tree, took out my food to eat, washed my face and brushed my teeth after eating, and then lay down to sleep.
The next morning, after finishing breakfast, I continued climbing. Yesterday I could see animals, but the higher I went, the fewer animals there were. I also saw small birds, rabbits, pheasants and the like.
But they are rare, and these animals are ten times larger than normal. If it weren't for their calls and their ability to fly, even small birds would look like skinny chickens.
The higher they went, the fewer trees there were, and the more rocks there were. Fortunately, they could step on them and fly upwards. Before dark, the group finally reached the top of the mountain!
"I thought the mountaintop would be a forest, but it turned out to be a flat area!" An Shuyi said as she was put down and looked around.
Unfortunately, it's starting to get dark now, and we can't see anything below or the sea. However, we can see small islands in the distance that are higher than here.
That island was a small island with a lot of snakes, but unfortunately she was too scared to go there.
“A flat place is good, so we can rest well. Shushu, bring out the yacht. We’ll stay here tonight and take turns keeping watch,” Xia Hua said.
When we came up today, we didn't see any animals. They definitely wouldn't come here, since those rocks are really big and it wouldn't be easy to get up here.
They can finally get a good rest tonight, without having to worry about falling off the bed, especially Shushu, who has to be held every night to sleep, otherwise she'll fall off.
Even though those trees were quite wide, it still felt like there wasn't enough room for her to sleep.
"Okay, I'll get it out now." Now she could finally take a proper shower; she hadn't showered for several days.
After setting up the yacht in a suitable spot, the group went aboard. Xiao Yubai and Cheng Yumo stayed outside to keep watch, while the other two went inside to shower.
After they've finished washing, it's the two of them's turn.
When it was time to eat, the group didn't drink any more alcohol. After finishing their meal, the three of them went to sleep, leaving Cheng Yumo to keep watch until midnight, when Xiao Yubai would relieve him.
The night passed quickly. An Shuyi opened her eyes and looked at Xia Hua, who was already awake beside her. "Hua Hua, when did you wake up?" She had slept with Hua Hua all night.
"I just woke up too. Do you want to sleep a little longer? If not, let's get up."
"Let's not sleep anymore, let's get up and go see if we can see anything on the sea from here."
I got out of bed, stretched, and then changed into jeans, a t-shirt, and slippers. I had been wearing boots before, which made my feet hot, and I couldn't take them off.
Now that she doesn't need to rush, she doesn't want to wear boots anymore. It would be better if it were cold, but it's very hot now.
The two went up to the deck. Xiao Yubai was sitting on the outside. Hearing the voice, he turned around and asked, "Why didn't you sleep a little longer?"
Now that there's no danger and they don't need to travel, these two women should be sleeping more.
“We’ve had enough sleep. Let’s see if we can see the sea from here, or if there’s a way to get out.” An Shuyi walked forward and looked at the sea between the two small islands.
Unfortunately, I didn't see anything, either because it was too far away or because there wasn't anything there.
Xia Hua walked over to her and handed her a pair of binoculars. "Use this to look. No matter how good your eyesight is, you can't see this far."
"Thank you, Huahua." Taking the binoculars, she looked at the sea. Although she could see clearly, there was still nothing on the surface.
"I can't see anything, Flower, you see." It seems that it will be too difficult for them to go back.
"Let me see?" Xia Hua took it and looked at the sea. This time she moved the distance further away, and soon she noticed the difference.
But she was still a little unsure. "Yu Bai, come and take a look. Is there something on the sea?"
As for why she's not called Shushu, it's because her eyesight is poor. She couldn't see it even after looking for so long, so there's even less chance now.
She didn't say what he saw, only letting him see for himself.
Xiao Yubai stood up, took the things from her hands, and then looked over, not missing a single corner. "You mean a blue line?"
Apart from this blue line, I didn't see anything else, and there was no such line anywhere else.
"You saw it too?" Xia Hua asked in surprise. "What I saw was that blue line, above the two small islands, forming a triangle."
"If I'm not mistaken, this is where we left off. We were just there a few days ago, and there was no blue line there. Now, shall we go take a look?"
“Let’s wait one more day. If the line is still there tomorrow, we’ll go check it out. If it’s not there, then it’s definitely not the right line,” Xiao Yubai said.
“If we can only leave today, and then disappear tomorrow, we won’t be able to go back,” An Shuyi suddenly said.
That's not impossible, after all, this place is too eerie.
“If we can’t go back, then we’ll stay here and leave whenever we see it again. Besides, it takes more than a day to get from here to the sea,” Xia Hua said.
