"What are you spacing out for? If we don't kill more, the others will be here soon!"
Ji Jiuying shouted, and You Ran and the others quickly came to their senses. Sure enough, not long after, people came from all directions. When they saw Ji Jiuying and the others hunting spirit beasts, their eyes lit up and they joined the battle. They did not forget the newly revised rules.
Among them were Jiang Ling and Feng Yu. When Jiang Ling met Ji Jiuying again, he was amazed by her spiritual skills.
"Brother Feng, look at her."
Jiang Ling pointed in Ji Jiuying's direction. Feng Yu, while fighting the wolf pack, glanced in the direction Jiang Ling pointed out, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
A black figure moved through the wolf pack like a war goddess amidst the chaos of war, or a solitary orchid in a turbulent world. Her every move captivated them, though she was not considered a beauty.
As the hunt continued, more and more people joined in, and the thousands of wolves were quickly wiped out by this group.
Bang!
The last wolf lay in a pool of blood. Ji Jiuying stared expressionlessly at the fallen wolf, slowly wiping the blood off her Divine Phoenix Fan.
Feng Yu's gaze remained fixed on her. The first time he saw her, he had already suspected that she was not the real Lan Xi. Although so many years had passed, he still remembered what that pale, bloodless face looked like. Now, seeing her so decisive, calm, and composed, he was even more certain.
I just don't understand why Lan Zhao would hide it?
"Sigh, if only I hadn't lingered on the way, I would have killed only fifty wolves."
"You should be grateful you have forty; I only have thirteen..."
"·····"
Upon hearing this, You Ran and the others exchanged glances, then looked at their student ID cards, their faces breaking into satisfied smiles. All of this was because of that girl.
Ji Jiuying glanced around. Since there were no more spirit beasts here, it was time to find another place.
"Miss, miss, wait a minute."
A leisurely voice came from behind her, but Ji Jiuying did not stop walking because she did not want to join a group of people.
"Miss..."
You Ran ran up to Ji Jiu Ying in a huff: "Miss, didn't you hear me calling you?"
"Is there anything else?"
Ji Jiuying looked at the woman blocking her way and asked indifferently.
"Miss, I am You Ran from the Beast Taming Sect. Thank you for saving my life. I'd like to give you half of these points as a way of repaying you," You Ran said, panting.
A flicker of surprise crossed Ji Jiuying's eyes. These points from hunting spirit beasts could be divided? That meant someone else might steal them...
"No need, I didn't do anything."
Ji Jiuying refused, and was about to walk past her when You Ran grabbed her sleeve, her brows furrowing slightly.
"Miss, are you alone? Would you like to come with us?"
"No, I prefer to be alone."
Seeing her still indifferent attitude, You Ran didn't say anything more: "Alright, then could you tell me which sect you belong to? What's your name? I'll come find you to hang out when we get back..."
"Array Sect, Blue Creek."
After saying that, she left without looking back. You Ran watched her back. She was indeed from the Array Sect, but why did her name seem so familiar?
"You Ran, what did she say?"
Several men stepped forward and asked.
You Ran shook her head, looking disappointed, and said, "Senior brother, she said she prefers to act alone."
"By the way, senior brothers, the young lady said her name is Lan Xi. Does the name sound familiar to you?"
The group frowned and thought for a while. One of the men said, "Lan Xi seems to be the younger sister of Lan Zhao, a Heavenly-level disciple of the Array Sect."
"It seems to be..."
"Wait a minute, isn't she the one sitting with the poisoner?!"
The group stared wide-eyed, finally remembering that she was the only person in the academy who had come into contact with a poisoner but hadn't been poisoned.
This is terrifying!
——
"Brother Feng, don't you think Lan Zhao's sister is different from what he said?" Jiang Ling asked, looking at the departing figure.
Feng Yu's eyes flickered slightly, and he said leisurely, "Is that so?"
"Yes, I have·······"
"When did Brother Jiang Ling become curious about such trivial matters?"
"I was just curious."
Jiang Ling smiled, but his eyes were still fixed on the direction where Ji Jiuying had disappeared. A red figure appeared in his mind. Her eyes were the same as Lan Xi's, so clear and pure.
"The most important thing now is to find Xin'er. I don't know if she has been teleported into this purple forest."
————
Along the way, under Xiao Huang'er's guidance, Ji Jiuying constantly fought against spirit beasts. The numbers in the learning card kept changing, and Ji Jiuying also discovered that killing spirit beasts of level nine or above would earn double the points.
Ji Jiuying seemed tireless, fighting non-stop for a day and a night, and her spiritual energy continued to accumulate.
It has to be said that this secret realm is indeed suitable for training. While assassinating spirit beasts, one can gain combat experience and obtain corresponding spiritual energy. This is why Ji Jiuying has been hunting spirit beasts.
In another part of the forest, Lan Zhao and Jiang Xin were dealing with a level nine peak phantom beast. Under their attacks, the phantom beast was already seriously injured. Its fierce eyes stared intently at the two humans in front of it, and it raised its head and let out a deafening howl.
A bad feeling instantly washed over them. Lan Zhao frowned, watching the phantom beast warily. A flash of inspiration crossed his mind, and his heart sank: "Oh no, Xin'er, we have to go! It was just gathering its companions!"
They could definitely take down one mythical beast by working together, but if another one came along, it would be a bit more difficult!
Jiang Xin's expression turned cold, and she was about to leave.
At this moment, an identical phantom beast appeared behind them, surrounding the two from the front and back, and their faces immediately darkened.
"How did you get here so quickly?"
"It's all your fault, you idiot, for taking so long to remember. What are we going to do now?" Jiang Xin said irritably.
"Xin'er, I'm sorry, it's all my fault." Lan Zhao pouted, then thought of something and hardened his heart: "Xin'er, I'll distract these two magical beasts, and you can take the opportunity to leave here."
Hearing this, Jiang Xin felt a little better. In her heart, she didn't think there was anything wrong with what Lan Zhao did. On the contrary, she felt that it was only natural for him to do this for her. He himself said that he liked her, and if he liked her, he should do what was best for her.
"Okay, I understand."
Hearing her tone, Lan Zhao knew she wasn't angry with him anymore. At that moment, the two phantom beasts approached them step by step. Lan Zhao felt the terrifying aura emanating from the beasts, but he didn't back down at all, gripping his weapon tightly.
