Feng Qingcheng sighed; she had actually run out of poison long ago.
There's a severe shortage of medicinal herbs lately.
These people will definitely come back again.
Sigh, she not only has to defend against monsters, but also against people.
When Feng Qingcheng came out, Su Yang also returned.
She didn't know where he had gone, and he looked unwell. Seeing the bloodstains on his clothes, Feng Qingcheng guessed that he must have been in a fierce battle.
"Is Detective Su feeling unwell?" Feng Qingcheng asked.
Su Yang said, "My stomach was upset, so I ran a little too far and encountered a low-level magical beast. I fought it for a while."
"Detective Su has been having stomach aches quite frequently lately. I really can't believe I'm sick."
You're the one who's sick, your whole family is sick!
I was just pretending.
Su Yang patrolled angrily, ignoring her.
Feng Qingcheng did not tell Su Yang what had just happened. In her opinion, even if Su Yang had seen what happened, he would not have come to her rescue.
When Xiao Wangyou got up to take over, Feng Qingcheng told him what had just happened.
Xiao Wangyou was shocked. "Acheng, do you know who wants to kill you?"
"Many people wanted to kill me, but luckily Su Yang returned just as they made their move, and they left."
"Ah Cheng, this is too dangerous. You can't keep watch anymore."
"No, Su Yang is too malicious. I don't trust him."
"So you insist on keeping watch with him to spy on him?"
“That’s right. He was out for about two hours, and when he came back, his robes were covered in the blood of monsters. I suspect he was secretly deploying something else.”
Thinking of the Emperor's words, Xiao Wangyou's expression changed slightly. "Acheng, don't worry, I won't let you get hurt."
"Xiao Wangyou, now you and Nanfeng are the people I trust the most. I must get the Demon Emperor Grass, no matter the cost."
Xiao Wangyou nodded and told her to go and rest quickly.
After she entered the tent, Xiao Wangyou's face turned serious.
At first, Ah Cheng only wanted everyone to help her obtain the medicinal herbs, but she overlooked the power of the Emperor and the Crown Prince. Perhaps she thought they wouldn't even consider the Demon Emperor's Herb?
She's so naive.
...
"You actually failed?" You three Xuanhuang-level experts failed to assassinate a piece of trash? Feng Qingran had been waiting for the three experts from the Li family to bring back good news, but she did not expect the three of them to return dejectedly.
It made her so angry she gritted her teeth!
The three told Feng Qingran about Feng Qingcheng's mysterious disappearance from the barrier.
Feng Qingran was shocked. "Could it be that she learned some kind of invisibility technique from the Feng family's forbidden book?"
"Xiao Ran, do you remember where you put that forbidden book?"
“The innermost room of the library, that room, only Father can go in.” Feng Qingran’s eyes were red with hatred. “That day, I pestered Father to go in, and when I saw that the book was labeled as forbidden, I copied some of them when Father wasn’t looking. In the end, I put them into Feng Qingcheng’s cultivation technique. I never thought that it would actually help her achieve her goal.”
"What about the part you copied?"
"I burned it."
Everyone was heartbroken. "Do you still remember what it said?"
Feng Qingran said, "I thought those were forbidden books, so I didn't dare to memorize them. I would copy one and then forget it."
"Now it seems that it wasn't a forbidden book at all; it was very likely a powerful cultivation technique that you missed."
Feng Qingran was filled with regret, but she remembered where the book was kept. What she lacked was a chance to go back into that library.
However, there are still opportunities.
Feng Qingran suddenly smiled dangerously, "In the Twilight Forest, the only ones who want to take Feng Qingcheng's life are us. How many stars have those powerful figures lost because of her? As long as we find a way to spread the news that she came here, everyone will want to take her dog's life."
...
"Afu, where did Acheng go?"
That day, Wu Fu could no longer bear Long Mo Yuan's rage and knelt on the ground, wiping away his sweat.
If it weren't for the sleeping potion left by the princess these past two days, I guess the prince would have already beheaded someone.
"Speak!" Long Moyuan, who was already able to sit in a wheelchair, was now furious.
Outside the door, Dan Yue and the others wanted to rush in and plead for Afu, but none of them had the courage.
"The princess should have arrived at Medicine King Valley by now."
"Ah Fu, are you still going to lie to me?"
Ah Fu said tremblingly, "Master, I wouldn't dare."
"I wouldn't dare. You're getting bolder and bolder. Fine, don't follow me anymore. Here's your indenture. Take it and find someone else." Long Moyuan angrily threw the indenture out.
Ah Fu was on the verge of tears, "Sir, please don't do this."
Long Moyuan wheeled himself out of the house.
Outside the door, Dan Yue and a few others were kneeling on the ground.
The prince pressed them for details about the princess's whereabouts, but they all kept their mouths shut.
Long Moyuan ignored them.
"Master, where are you going?" Afu kept chasing after Long Moyuan, and Dan Yue and the others followed.
Long Moyuan got angry and ignored everyone.
Long Moyuan insisted on leaving the Prince An's residence, rocking his wheelchair himself.
This is outrageous! Ah Fu quickly stopped him. "Master, please don't do this. Ah Fu was wrong. Ah Fu will take you to find the Princess."
Long Moyuan's expression softened slightly, and he glanced at him indifferently, "Hurry up and lead the way."
Dan Yue and the others wanted to go too, but Long Moyuan refused.
Long Moyuan instructed Dan Yue and the others to prepare carriages and dry rations.
Afu asked, "The princess went to the Twilight Forest to find the Demon Emperor Grass for you, sir. Do you still insist on going?"
Long Moyuan's eyes flashed with an uncontrollable rage, like an enraged lion. "Won't you stop her?"
Afu said, "Your Highness, the Princess Consort is a woman of her word, and we can't stop her. Besides, she has Young Master Zhuge and the Poison Sect protecting her. Oh, and Lord Su also went, bringing ten Xuanhuang experts to protect the Princess Consort. Your Highness, you can rest assured."
"Relax? How can I relax? The Twilight Forest is a place everyone fears. Do you think you're going there for fun?"
After being scolded, Afu could only lower his head and dare not speak again.
"Sir, won't you reconsider? This journey has been so bumpy..."
"Wordy."
Ah Fu swallowed all his words, feeling wronged.
Finally, he used his spiritual power to put Long Moyuan, along with his wheelchair, into the carriage, and then became the coachman himself.
There is another main road in Duskwood, which takes about five days to traverse.
After thinking for a moment, Afu secretly made a communication talisman and sent it to the princess.
...
As dawn broke, Feng Qingcheng and her group set off to attack the inner perimeter of the Twilight Forest.
Their objective was clear: they would detour around any magical beasts they saw, as they wanted to obtain the Demon Emperor Grass as quickly as possible.
As they walked, they saw the corpses of low-level magical beasts from time to time.
Members of several powerful families had already paved the way for them.
The journey became much smoother for everyone.
Occasionally they would encounter one or two mid-level magical beasts, but they were all scared away by the group's powerful lineup.
Feng Qingcheng was very pleased with herself.
Look how clever she is! If it weren't for her brilliant idea, would they have been able to walk in so easily?
It would take several days just to fight these monsters.
While others were busy fighting monsters, she leisurely strolled behind them. Whenever she saw a new monster, she would secretly pick it up and toss it into her spatial storage.
Her personal storage space has a preservation function, and these magical beasts are simply a great tonic. She'll give them an extra meal to the lower-level guys when she gets back to the Prince An's mansion.
Wealthy big shots would buy several Qiankun bags, but the space wasn't that big; the largest Qiankun bag could only hold one monster.
As for those poor children, several of them share one Qiankun bag. Just like the group of experts from Prince An's Mansion who went out to train, five to ten people would share one Qiankun bag.
Suddenly, a strong gust of wind swept in, carrying thick dust.
Su Yang, who was walking in front, said, "Everyone be careful, there should be high-level magical beasts ahead."
As soon as Su Yang finished speaking, a huge black bear blocked their way.
Its head looked like a big pom-pom, with pointed ears, a small nose, and a pair of round, sparkling blue eyes. When it walked, all its fur and flesh trembled.
The most deadly thing was its three tails, which were thicker than a tree trunk, and were now waving terrifyingly behind it.
It opened its blood-red maw, revealing sharp teeth, and looked at the crowd as if it were looking at prey.
No one dared to move rashly; the creature before them was at least a hundred years old, and its strength was not to be underestimated.
Inside the space, the little pig shouted with its spiritual power, "Master, this three-tailed bear has cultivated for hundreds of years. Kill it and let the Purple Light Sword absorb its blood essence, then the Purple Light Sword will become more and more powerful."
Feng Qingcheng was overjoyed and responded with her spiritual power, "Is it really that amazing?"
"Of course, I am a divine beast, and the Purple Light Sword is a celestial sword," came the little pig's proud voice.
"Okay, you're the best. I'll believe you for now. Go to sleep."
"Remember to cultivate with a few handsome men. The two beside you are quite good."
This guy, I really want to sharpen a pig-slaughtering knife!
A white knife goes in, a red knife comes out, let it know the consequences of chasing her for dual cultivation every day!
Xiao Wangyou and Nanfeng shielded Feng Qingcheng behind them. Nanfeng said, "It looks like we can't get through this without a duel with this guy. Qingcheng, go hide under that big tree in the back and let us deal with him."
Xiao Wangyou also said, "Yes, Acheng, hurry up and go."
Feng Qingcheng didn't try to be brave, so she whispered to the two of them, "Anyway, we have Detective Su and the others. Let them lead the charge. You guys just go through the motions. If you can't win, just run away. Don't let yourselves get hurt, understand?"
The two nodded.
Feng Qingcheng quickly ran to a large tree that would take six people to encircle, and in order to get a better view, she nimbly climbed up the tree.
"Awooo..."
As the three-tailed bear's earth-shattering roar resounded, everyone felt as if the ground beneath their feet was about to crack open.
The three-tailed bear swung its three long tails at the crowd at the same time!
Everyone felt a deep shadow of death looming over them.
Driven by the instinct to survive, everyone used their special skills.
In an instant, all kinds of magic were unleashed.
There are water-type, ice-type, fire-type, wood-type...
Feng Qingcheng was dazzled by the sight.
The wind grew stronger, and the sandstorm thickened.
Finally, the world changed color, and the scene before her eyes gradually blurred. Feng Qingcheng could only hear the sound of someone being injured and falling to the ground.
This three-tailed bear, which has cultivated for over a hundred years, is indeed formidable.
Suddenly, a melodious flute tune drifted over, finally slowly dispelling the thick smoke.
Xiao Wangyou played the flute, and magic was slowly unleashed through the flute's melody.
As the melody changes, the flute's sound is sometimes high-pitched, sometimes calm, and sometimes melodious...
Feng Qingcheng noticed that the three-tailed bear had actually lay down and was quietly listening to Xiao Wangyou play the flute.
She only knew that Xiao Wangyou could speak animal language, but she didn't know that this guy could also play the flute so well. However, such beautiful flute music was a weapon for killing beasts!
"Awooo!"
The three-tailed bear wasn't stupid; it quickly sensed the murderous intent in the flute music!
The three-tailed bear was completely enraged!
It swept its three thick, long tails toward the crowd!
puff!
puff!
puff!
These so-called Xuanhuang masters all fell victim to the trap!
The south wind was fast and escaped disaster.
But Xiao Wangyou wasn't so lucky.
The three-tailed bear's counterattack caused him to vomit blood.
"Xiao Wangyou, how are you?" Nanfeng quickly helped him up.
Xiao Wangyou said, "Retreat!"
But how could the three-tailed bear let them leave?
Even when Detective Su tried to ambush it with a sword, it swept him away a long way with a bear tail.
Su Yang immediately coughed up blood.
However, he was very obedient and immediately lay down on the ground pretending to be dead.
The others wanted to leave too, but they were all pulled back by the three-tailed bear.
Even Nanfeng, who was helping Xiaowangyou escape, was swept into the air by it.
"Damn it, let me go!" Nanfeng cursed angrily, wildly swinging his sword.
But the three-tailed bear looked at him with a mocking expression.
In its eyes, they were nothing more than insignificant humans, so insignificant that they were not even worth a bite.
Upon seeing this, Feng Qingcheng stopped hiding and quickly ran up to him.
"Ah Cheng, it's dangerous! You'd better run!" Xiao Wangyou was furious when she saw her.
Feng Qingcheng took out some pills. "Communicate with it and tell it to release the person. I have some advancement pills here. You can advance your level by taking them."
Xiao Wangyou froze, "Acheng, this pill..."
"Compared to human lives, this is nothing."
So Xiao Wangyou began to communicate with the three-tailed bear in animal language.
The three-tailed bear was surprised that this human could speak animal language.
"You're saying the pill in this good-for-nothing's hand is an advancement pill?" The three-tailed bear stared at Feng Qingcheng with suspicion.
Although Feng Qingcheng didn't understand what it was saying, she still nodded at it.
Xiao Wangyou said, "We humans can advance without cultivation after eating these advancement pills, and it's the same for you magical beasts. Anyway, you'll just get a toothache if you eat these. Why don't you release them and we'll give you our advancement pills?"
"Hmph, since you can't escape my grasp anyway, why should I let you go?"
Feng Qingcheng roughly understood what the three-tailed bear meant from its expression.
Xiao Wangyou was shocked. "Acheng, let's go."
But how could the three-tailed bear give her a chance to escape?
It disdainfully discarded Nanfeng, and its bear tail directly swept Feng Qingcheng up.
"Alluring beauty".
“Acheng”.
Xiao Wangyou was shocked and tried to save the person, but was pushed to the ground by the force of the three-tailed bear's palm.
puff!
Xiao Wangyou coughed up another mouthful of blood.
“Master, the three-tailed bear’s weakness is its tongue.”
Tongue?
"Snap!"
The three-tailed bear used one of its tails to deliver a Xuanhuang master into its mouth, and without hesitation, it bit off the man's hand.
"ah!"
The Xuanhuang expert screamed in agony.
The three-tailed bear seemed intent on torturing everyone, slowly chewing on the man's hand.
Crack! Crunch!
The sound of bones being crushed filled the air, and everyone's faces turned pale with fear!
