The golden-eyed beast did not know the purpose of Zhao Yuanliang and the other two. It was running fast on the sea surface and might be attacked by other monsters on the seabed. Normally, it was not afraid of other monsters, but now it had to protect Han Benfu, so it did not use water escape.
Along the way, they occasionally encountered third-level monsters or third-level monster birds. Zhao Yuanliang and the other two took action to repel them and prevented them from attacking the golden-eyed beast and Han Benfu.
One day later, a red light flew from the distant sky. Han Changming and Ye Xue stood on the Fire Cloud Shuttle, their expressions anxious.
"Husband, it's Benfu."
Ye Xue saw Han Benfu at a glance, her tone was panicked. Both he and his wife felt uneasy and immediately set out to find Han Benfu. Unexpectedly, something really happened to Han Benfu.
Han Changming's face darkened and his eyes were full of murderous intent. He didn't have many enemies in the outer sea, just a few, and he didn't know who did it. The first person he thought of was Lu Yunjie.
If it was the Wanfa Sect, they would have directly destroyed Ziyue Island. Lin Xuan does not have that strength, and the possibility of the Hehuan Sect is not high either.
He fixed his eyes and looked into the distance, with three beams of light following closely behind him.
Not long after, the three beams of light stopped. They were Zhao Yuanliang and the other two.
“It’s you!”
Han Changming frowned. He thought it was the murderer who was chasing Han Benfu, but he didn't expect it was Zhao Yuanliang and the other two.
"Friend Han, we encountered someone who wanted to kill Ling Qianjin. We forced the murderer to retreat, but Ling Qianjin's spirit beast would not let anyone get close. We could only follow them all the way."
Zhao Yuanliang quickly explained.
"Yes! We arrived later, and Brother Zhao was the first to discover that Ling Qianjin was attacked."
Chen Qingfeng quickly agreed.
Han Changming's expression relaxed and he looked at the golden-eyed beast. The golden-eyed beast had not seen Han Changming at all. It continued to run on the sea level at an extremely fast speed.
Ye Xue frowned and shouted in a low voice: "Stop."
She slapped the empty sea with her right hand, and a strong wind blew out. The sea surface rolled violently, and suddenly a huge wave over a hundred feet high rose up, blocking the way of the golden-eyed beast.
She flicked her five fingers and several streaks of white light shot out and disappeared into the huge waves. The huge waves froze at a speed visible to the naked eye and turned into a white ice wall over a hundred feet high.
With a loud bang, dense golden lightning struck the white ice wall, and the white ice wall turned into countless white ice blocks, floating on the sea.
The golden-eyed beast ignored Han Changming and the others and continued to return along the same path Han Benfu came from.
"This golden-eyed beast is quite intelligent. It seems that it wants to send Ling Qianjin back to Ziyue Island. We are worried that the thieves will secretly harm Ling Qianjin, so we have been following it."
Zhao Yuanliang explained.
“Madam, you follow Benfu. I will rush back to the family first. I think I have to bring Benmin here.”
Han Changming gave some instructions and released the Purple Crystal Flying Scorpion and Thunder Rhinoceros Bug, giving the order to protect Han Benfu. He pinched his fingers and the Fire Cloud Shuttle's light increased greatly, then turned around and returned.
He was mainly worried that the Golden-Eyed Beast would not be able to return to Qinghulu Island, mainly because there were a large number of cultivators and monsters passing through the sea area, and the Golden-Eyed Beast might lose it. Different spirit beasts have different sensitivities of smell.
The Amethyst Flying Scorpion and the Thunder Rhinoceros Insect followed the Golden-Eyed Beast several hundred feet behind, and Ye Xue followed closely behind.
"Friend Zhao, Friend Chen, please go to Haoran City to report the news and ask my master to come out of seclusion. I will reward you handsomely in the future."
Han Changming took out two sound transmission notes, said a few words, and handed them to Zhao Yuanliang and Chen Qingfeng, asking them to deliver the letter.
"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Han, we will definitely deliver the sound transmission talisman to Master Ling Xiao."
Zhao Yuanliang and Chen Qingfeng agreed, and the three of them turned around and left.
Two days later, Han Changming rushed back to Qinghulu Island. He came to Han Benmin's residence and sent a sound transmission note to Han Benmin.
Soon, Han Benmin opened the door and walked out.
"Uncle Jiu, is Sister Benfu in trouble?"
Han Benmin asked nervously.
"I'll tell you on the way. Take the three golden-eyed beasts with you and go with me to greet them. I hope the golden-eyed beast will stop."
Han Changming urged, all things have spirits, he had heard of the deeds of the golden-eyed beast.
The fact that the golden-eyed beast was able to run away with Han Benfu shows that it is quite human-like. It is very difficult to stop it. After all, it has been with Han Benfu for all these years and has not seen many outsiders, including Han Benmin.
Han Benmin responded, took the three golden-eyed beasts, and jumped onto the Fire Cloud Shuttle.
Han Changming sent someone to notify Han Zhangxiang and tell him what had happened.
One day later, Han Changming and Han Benmin appeared above a deserted island more than ten miles away. Ye Xue stood in the air with a frown on her face.
Han Benfu was lying on the beach with lifeless eyes. The golden-eyed beast stayed beside her, roaring angrily and countless golden arcs of electricity emerging from its body surface.
Han Changming guessed it right. There were too many monsters and cultivators passing by here, and the Golden-Eyed Beast lost them. It didn't trust anyone and wouldn't let anyone get close to Han Benfu.
Han Changming pinched his fingers and the Fire Cloud Shuttle slowly landed. Han Benmin jumped to the ground. He released three golden-eyed beasts and approached them cautiously.
The golden-eyed beast seemed to recognize Han Benmin and did not attack him, allowing him to get closer.
Han Benmin walked over to the golden-eyed beast and gently stroked its head to comfort it.
A quarter of an hour later, the Golden-Eyed Beast's emotions finally stabilized, and the golden electric arcs on its body dissipated.
It seemed to realize that Han Changming and others did not intend to hurt Han Benfu, so it allowed Han Benmin to get closer.
Han Changming took a deep breath and approached the golden-eyed beast cautiously. The golden-eyed beast immediately let out a roar, and countless golden arcs of electricity emerged from its body surface, as if it was going to attack Han Changming.
"Benmin? What's going on?"
Han Changming asked with a frown.
"I don't know either. It seems that it doesn't like you, Uncle Jiu. Maybe you have the scent of the murderer, or something has irritated it."
Han Benmin explained.
"Husband, let me give it a try!"
Ye Xue approached Han Benfu cautiously. The golden-eyed beast showed no abnormality and allowed Ye Xue to approach Han Benfu.
"The murderer's breath?"
Han Changming frowned. He had been in seclusion for the past few years and had no contact with outsiders.
Either the murderer is an alchemist and exudes the fragrance of medicine, or the murderer raises amethyst flying scorpions or thunder rhinoceros insects. Thunder rhinoceros insects are unique. There are only two possibilities: the murderer has had contact with an alchemist or is an alchemist, or the murderer raises amethyst flying scorpions.
"Husband, there are no wounds on Benfu's body. There is a strange rune between her eyebrows. She fainted. I don't know what happened."
Ye Xue's tone was anxious. Han Benfu's symptoms looked like poisoning, but upon closer inspection, it didn't seem like it.
There is a mysterious black rune between Han Benfu's eyebrows, which seems to represent something.
"It seems to be a curse!"
Han Changming frowned. He didn't know much about the art of cursing. If he couldn't find the right remedy, it would be troublesome.
At this time, Han Zhangxiang also arrived, his expression was solemn.
"How's Benfu?"
Han Zhangxiang's face darkened when he saw Han Benfu who was unconscious.
"Chief, Benfu seems to be under a curse. Give Benfu an antidote first. It doesn't matter if it doesn't work."
Han Changming gave the order, and Ye Xue quickly took out a medium-grade golden dew pill and fed it to Han Benfu.
Han Changming carefully discovered that the golden-eyed beast was very repulsive to the purple crystal flying scorpion. Once the purple crystal flying scorpion approached, it would roar, as if to warn the purple crystal flying scorpion.
The golden-eyed beast would not let Han Changming get close, so Han Changming was unable to diagnose Han Benfu.
Han Zhangxiang approached Han Benfu cautiously. The golden-eyed beast did not reject him, but it only rejected Han Changming and the Purple Crystal Flying Scorpion.
Han Zhangxiang carefully observed the mysterious rune between Han Benfu's eyebrows, frowning.
"It does look like a curse, but I don't know what kind of curse it is."
Han Zhangxiang's face looked very ugly. As far as he knew, there was no cultivator in the outer sea who knew the art of cursing. He had read records of the art of cursing in classics. It was said that the art of cursing originated from the witch clan. There was no witch clan in either the inner sea or the outer sea, and he had never heard of any cultivator who mastered the art of cursing.
At this time, the importance of knowledge becomes apparent.
The Huludao Han family has been passed down for less than a thousand years. Before that, it had always been a third-rate family. The types and quantities of books in their collections were not many, far less than those of the big sects. Faced with this situation, Han Changming and Han Zhangxiang were helpless.
If they knew what the spell was, they would still be able to save Han Benfu.
The golden-eyed beast would not let anyone take Han Benfu away, not even Han Benmin.
Han Changming took out a green porcelain bottle, threw it to Han Benmin, and ordered: "Benmin, there is a Baijiu Pill in it. Feed it to the Golden Eyed Beast. If it doesn't make it drunk, I can't treat Benfu."
Han Benmin took the porcelain bottle and took out a green pill with a strong smell of alcohol. There were nine elixir patterns on the surface. It was obviously a top-grade pill. He fed it to the golden-eyed beast.
Decades ago, he followed Ling Xiao Zhenren to Sifang Island and exchanged them for a batch of mid-grade elixirs at an alchemist gathering. He used the Taiyi Hualing Gourd to purify them into top-grade elixirs.
After the golden-eyed beast swallowed the top-grade Hundred Wine Pill, its body staggered and it fell asleep not long after.
Han Changming breathed a sigh of relief. He went forward to check, but couldn't figure out what was going on.
"Changming, let's go to Haoran City and ask Lingxiao for help! He is knowledgeable and may have a solution."
Han Zhangxiang suggested that they had too little experience and were not as knowledgeable as Ling Xiao Zhenren. The longer they delayed, the more danger Han Benfu would be in.
Han Changming nodded and flew towards Haoran City with Han Benfu.
