Seven days later, the wind cried at the mountain.
"Last time we were nearby and found traces of the Yuan Devouring Beast, but now the traces have disappeared."
Huo Chunyan activated the magic weapon in her hand, but could not sense anything, and could not help but frown.
Zhuge Yun also used a tracking spell, but when he saw that the spell didn't work, there was no surprise in his eyes.
"It has been nine days since I last came here. The Yuan-devouring Beast must have run away long ago. But this place should not be far from its lair. The deeper we go, the higher the danger. Follow me closely."
After saying that, Zhuge Yun took a step and walked deeper into the cave.
However, he had not walked far when he suddenly stopped and tilted his ear as if listening to something.
There was a faint sound coming from the front.
"There seems to be a fight ahead, about three or four miles to the left."
Huo Chunyan holds a spirit-detecting plate in her hand. Not only can she detect changes in spiritual energy, but her sensitivity to sound is also higher than that of other people.
So after listening for a while, he accurately reported the location of the fight.
However, the level of her soul-viewing disk was not high. If the other party was deliberately hiding something, she would not be able to detect anything.
Zhuge Yun prepared to take a detour without much thought. In this Fengkui Mountain, it is better to have less trouble than more.
However, after walking only one mile, they found traces of the Yuan-devouring Beast again, and there was more than one place.
At the same time, the faint sounds of fighting became clearer.
"It's the Yuan Devouring Beast!"
Huo Chunyan showed a hint of excitement on her face, "In addition to the two groups of people fighting, there is also a Yuan Devouring Beast."
Zhuge Yun hesitated for only a moment before making a decision.
"Hold your breath and go take a look first!"
The battle not far away has entered a fierce stage.
There were only two or three people left standing on each side.
The originally huge Yuan-devouring Beast now looked extremely miserable. There was not a single piece of healthy meat on its body, and it looked like it could die at any time.
Two groups of people were fighting fiercely, and no one noticed that a few people were approaching quietly and silently.
"While the snipe and the clam quarrel, the fisherman benefits. They are fighting to the death here, and we can take advantage of the opportunity..."
A sneer appeared on Zhuge Yun's lips, but before he could finish his words, his expression suddenly changed when he saw the female cultivator who was fighting fiercely with others.
"Get ready to attack!"
After saying that, Zhuge Yun rushed forward like an arrow.
He was about to take out his sword when he suddenly remembered something. He pulled out an iron fan and attacked the two trembling female cultivators.
Zhuge Yun's movements were so fast that even after he started fighting with others, several people were still unable to react.
Zhang Yu looked at Zhuge Yun who was standing in a group with others, and his mouth opened wide without closing in time.
"Didn't Senior Brother Zhuge tell us not to act rashly or take advantage of others before we came here?"
"Who knows what he's up to! Could it be that he saw that the female cultivator was pretty and was tempted by her beauty?"
Huo Chunyan complained and followed Xu Chunniang to attack.
Zhao Xingsan also moved quickly. He glanced at the female cultivator subconsciously after hearing that. He felt vaguely familiar with her, but he also knew that he definitely did not know her.
After all, if you have seen such a powerful and beautiful female cultivator, you will definitely be impressed.
With Zhuge Yun and his men joining in, the originally evenly matched battle soon became one-sided.
Seeing that victory was already decided, the last remaining foundation-building cultivator of the other side suddenly broke free from Zhuge Yun's blockade and rushed towards the beautiful female cultivator with a ferocious smile.
"If you want me dead, I'll take someone with me to be buried with me!"
Having said that, he started to self-destruct without hesitation.
Zhuge Yun's face changed drastically, and he was about to stop her, but he saw the female cultivator suddenly disappear from the spot. At the same time, the dying Yuan-devouring Beast appeared where she had originally stood.
And her body changed to where the Yuan-devouring Beast was.
The monk didn't expect such a change to happen, and his face changed drastically, but his self-destruction had already begun and he couldn't stop it at all.
With a loud bang, the Yuan-devouring Beast endured the endless aftermath and was blown into pieces in the self-explosion...
Fortunately, when this monk showed signs of self-destruction, the others stayed away from him, so his self-destruction did not affect others.
However, causing such a big commotion deep in Fengku Mountain might attract the attention of others.
Zhuge Yun's mind was racing as he looked towards the beautiful female cultivator who was in the late stage of foundation building.
"Junior Sister Xue'er, are you okay?"
Junior Sister Xueer
Several people looked at each other, and a guess emerged in their minds.
Could it be that this powerful and beautiful female cultivator is Shangguan Xue
A cold voice sounded, confirming their guess.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Zhuge, for your help this time, but you should still call me Shangguan Xue."
Zhuge Yun's smile froze slightly, "Junior Sister Shangguan, it's too polite to say that..."
However, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted.
"Brother Zhuge, are you sure you want to greet me here?"
Shangguan Xue frowned slightly and glanced at the mess on the ground inconspicuously. The monk's self-explosion just now caused a huge commotion, and they had to move as soon as possible.
Zhuge Yun finally stopped talking.
Shangguan Xue let out a breath, feeling very upset.
This time, when she was the team leader, she brought out four fellow apprentices, one of whom died, one was seriously injured, and two other fellow apprentices, including herself, were also seriously injured.
The Yuan-devouring Beast that I hunted with great difficulty was destroyed by someone...
A hint of determination flashed in her eyes. She must leave Fengku Mountain as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, she thanked Zhuge Yun and his party again, distributed pills to the two disciples, and left with the seriously injured disciple.
Zhuge Yun saw through Shangguan Xue's plan, and seeing that she had no intention of asking for his help, he couldn't help but follow her.
"Xue... Junior Sister Shangguan, we are from the same sect, and it is our duty to take care of each other. Please let me go with you."
Shangguan Xue's expression remained unchanged. "You haven't completed your mission yet, right? Aren't you going to kill the Yuan Devouring Beast?"
Zhuge Yun glanced at Shangguan Xue's profile and said almost without thinking.
"The Yuan Devouring Beast can kill you at any time, but now that Junior Sister is injured, I am worried about you. What if you encounter any danger on the way back? What should I do?"
Shangguan Xue frowned slightly, but said nothing more, and silently let Zhuge Yun go with her.
Seeing Zhuge Yun wanting to stick to Senior Sister Shangguan, Huo Chunyan curled her lips in annoyance and sent a message to Xu Chunniang.
"Brother Zhuge was so cold and impatient to us in the past, but now that he sees Sister Shangguan, he is so eager to show his affection to us that he even puts the mission aside."
Xu Chunniang didn't know what to think about Zhuge Yun's actions.
In fact, it is reasonable and right to escort Senior Sister Shangguan away from Fengku Mountain.
Huo Chunyan was still indignant. "Last time you were too busy practicing to enter the mountain, he was very dissatisfied. But when Senior Sister Shangguan mentioned the mission just now, he looked like he didn't care."
