Jiang Ling looked at Ji Jiuying's back with a puzzled expression. Just now in the square, she looked so weak and helpless. How come she seems like a completely different person now... After thinking for a moment, she followed her.
However!
A whooshing sound rang out as a cold branch hurtled towards him. Jiang Ling was startled and quickly took a few steps back. Several sharp branches were embedded in his feet. If he had been any slower, the branches would have pierced his insteps.
Staring at the poisoned tree branch before him, Jiang Ling was momentarily stunned, but quickly recovered. His younger sister, Lan Zhao, seemed somewhat different from what he had heard…
Whether it's personality or ability!
"Mother, that person didn't follow us anymore."
Ji Jiuying sneered: "Even if he's curious, he probably doesn't have the guts."
In the bamboo forest, a mirror emitted a silvery-white light, reflecting everything in the Wind and Cloud Secret Realm, but the image quickly locked onto Ji Jiuying's figure.
Xiao Yichen leaned back in his chaise lounge, watching her every move with interest. However, his gaze was drawn to the little bird on her shoulder. His eyes narrowed, and he muttered to himself, "The mythical beast Vermilion Bird..."
"Hehe, this little girl is quite a surprise. I imagine her fight will be very exciting..."
In a purple forest.
ah--
A scream rang out, followed by angry roars from the spirit beasts.
Ji Jiuying frowned. The voice came from ahead. Someone had found the spirit beast herd before her!
Judging from the sound, the person in front seemed to be in bad shape. Could it be that the spirit beast was too high-level? What a coincidence! She liked high-level spirit beasts. Thinking of this, Ji Jiuying quickened her pace.
They soon arrived at the place where Xiao Huang'er had said there were spirit beasts. When Ji Jiuying saw the scene before her, she froze on the spot.
wolves!
Thousands of wolves surrounded the woman who had just screamed and her seven companions.
"What to do? What to do?"
"Are we going to have to use a teleportation orb to get out as soon as we get in?"
The woman looked flustered, but her eyes were full of resentment.
"Lu Ying'er, isn't this all your fault? If you hadn't screamed and alerted the wolves, we wouldn't be in such a passive position now!"
Another woman said viciously.
"I didn't do it on purpose, who would have thought there would be a pack of wolves here!"
"What do you think this secret realm is? One wrong step leads to another. You're really all brawn and no brains."
Who are you calling names?!
"So what if I curse at you?"
"Alright, stop arguing. The most important thing now is to figure out how to fight our way out. What's the point of arguing here?"
"These thousands of wolves, and they're even level eight spirit beasts! We're probably doomed if we rely on just a few of them..."
"It's better than doing nothing at all."
As the wolf pack approached step by step, the group couldn't help but tremble. If it were only a few hundred wolves, they certainly wouldn't care, but with several thousand, they would probably be exhausted before they even finished killing them. If they couldn't use the teleportation bead in time, they would only become food for the wolves.
But this secret realm is a rare opportunity, and they don't want to give it up, but there will always be one or two timid ones.
"These thousands of level-eight spirit beasts will surely fall into the wolf's mouth if we're not careful. You can kill them if you want, I'm leaving now." After saying that, he crushed the teleportation bead in his hand and disappeared from everyone's sight in an instant.
The group felt a chill run down their spines, but they said nothing, after all, everyone has the right to choose.
At this moment, the woman named Lu Ying'er also crushed the teleportation bead: "I'm sorry, I... I don't want to die!"
She disappeared from everyone's sight as soon as she finished speaking, and the woman who had just cursed her was immediately furious: "Damn Lu Ying'er, she caused all this trouble, and now she's running away at the last minute."
"You Ran, ignore her. Someone like her deserves to remain stuck at the Mahayana stage forever. We'll just do our best."
"Yes, we've been unlucky lately with these kinds of things, but at least we tried our best."
The woman named You Ran felt a little better, but the difficulty had increased considerably since the group had gone from eight to six people.
At this moment, the wolves raised their heads and let out a series of howls. Swish! A pack of wolves pounced on the group of people. The group stood back to back, entrusting their trust to the person behind them, and gripped their magical weapons tightly in their hands.
Soon, the two sides began to fight.
The strong smell of blood instantly filled her nostrils, and Ji Jiuying frowned slightly.
"Mother, why aren't you going to fight? What if they kill us all?" Little Phoenix said anxiously.
Ji Jiuying's gaze swept across the wolf pack, finally settling on a wolf with blood-red eyes. A slight smile played on her lips; it was the one.
"Little Phoenix, wait for me here."
Upon hearing this, Little Phoenix had no choice but to fly into the air, keeping a close watch on her surroundings to prevent any fool from attacking her mother.
"Be careful, You Ran!"
A cry of alarm rang out as a wolf, larger than the rest of the pack, pounced on You Ran from mid-air. You Ran was terrified, and the other wolves knocked the sword from her hand. She had no time to dodge and was about to crush the teleportation bead in her hand.
A black light shot out from the sky, and the burly wolf fell to the ground to the astonishment of the crowd. The wolf pack stopped their fierce attack as soon as they saw the fallen wolf. Their sharp fangs gleamed coldly, and their dark eyes stared fiercely at the group of people.
You Ran quickly picked up the sword from the ground. The group looked at the wolf that had been stabbed on the ground, and then at the wolves surrounding them not far away. They immediately understood, "This female wolf must be the queen of the pack."
Whoosh! A sound of something cutting through the air pulled them back to reality.
The black, cold light seemed to have a life of its own. After piercing the wolf, it turned and fell into the hand of a girl. The girl flew into the air and landed in front of the group. The mother wolf on the ground instantly turned into specks of light and disappeared into Ji Jiuying's Blood Life Token. A large character "一" appeared on the token.
Ji Jiuying raised an eyebrow. Did it mean she had killed a spirit beast?
As soon as Ji Jiuying appeared, the wolf pack's fierce gazes all fell on her, but she didn't care at all. Her provocative gaze fell on the blood-red eyes of the wolf in the pack.
The wolf with blood-red eyes bared its teeth, its bloodshot eyes fixed on Ji Jiuying, its gaze seemingly wanting to tear her to shreds.
"Thank you so much, miss."
You Ran looked at Ji Jiu Ying and said.
"No need to thank me. I would have killed it even without you," came Ji Jiuying's indifferent voice.
"Miss, there are too many wolves to kill them all. Why did you come in and take this risk with us?" You Ran asked, looking at her profile.
Ji Jiuying turned and glanced at her. "Didn't we come here for adventure?"
Her words immediately surprised the group; what she said seemed to make sense.
