"Boss, isn't it a bit inappropriate for us to follow along? After all, just now we..."

"What's wrong with that? Look, the boss has such a good relationship with them, and we were all rescued by the boss. Won't the boss give us some face? As long as we sincerely admit our mistakes, those phantom martens will definitely not make things difficult for us."

"That's right, but Boss, shouldn't we also think about preparing some compensation for them? What if they make a request? Should we show our sincerity?"

"Yes! Lao Si, you are right, but the things we have are all obtained here, so they should have belonged to us. Isn't it a bit too embarrassing to use their things to compensate them?"

"So...why don't we just run away?"

"Yes, yes, yes! Run away!"

Having said that, the four of them talked it over and realized that their lives might really be in danger, so they gradually slowed down their pace, increased the distance between them, and then turned around and ran away.

Huanxin naturally noticed the four people running away. It looked back, stretched out its right claw, and a ray of light flew towards the four people, covering them.

He did not persuade Huanxin to let them go. Although those four people did not really harm the Huanling Marten, they had captured Xiao Huan and the others after all. Zeng Wenyu had no reason to stop Huanxin.

"Don't worry, my friend. I'm only punishing them slightly. I won't really kill them. After all, I just discovered that they might not be very smart."

"Don't worry, Senior Huanxin. I am not the kind of person who would care about these things."

Zeng Wenyu and Huanxin left, leaving only the four cultivators struggling in the illusion created by Huanxin. It was unknown when they would be able to break free from the illusion.

Back in the library, Xiao Huan and the others poked their heads out from behind the bookshelf. When they saw Huanxin and Zeng Wenyu, they ran out happily and played around Zeng Wenyu and Huanxin.

Xiao Huan ran to sit in front of Huan Xin. Huan Xin raised his paw and touched his head: "Very good, Xiao Huan, you protected your brothers and sisters well and didn't let them get hurt."

After being praised by Huanxin, Xiao Huan finally put down his uneasy mood. He was very happy that Huanxin said to him: "Thank you, Dad. I will continue to work hard in the future!"

"Okay, let's stop talking about this. Take your brothers and sisters out of the library. We have something delicious tonight."

Xiao Huan nodded and began to leave the library with the other Huanling Minks that were playing around.

Zeng Wenyu was also about to leave when a tiny phantom marten ran to his feet, stretched out its claws and touched his leg. He looked down at the tiny phantom marten.

The appearance of the phantom marten is not very different, but Zeng Wenyu still recognized this phantom marten. This is the phantom marten named Xiao Meng.

Squatting down, Zeng Wenyu looked at Xiao Meng. Xiao Meng's big eyes were looking at Zeng Wenyi. She wanted to say something, but she couldn't speak because of shyness.

"what happened?"

"Um...um...thank you..."

Xiao Meng's voice was very low, but Zeng Wenyu still heard what it said. He reached out his hand and wanted to touch its head. When he was hesitating, Xiao Meng took the initiative to move her head forward and rubbed it against his palm.

Stroking Xiao Meng's soft fur, Zeng Wenyu smiled: "It's okay, after all, you are so cute, how can I watch you get captured."

I don’t know if Xiao Meng thought of something, but her originally snow-white fur turned slightly red, and she looked shy.

"It seems that you and Xiao Meng have a good relationship?" Seeing that Zeng Wenyu had not left for a long time, Huanxin walked back into the library and saw this scene. "Xiao Meng is the youngest child of our Huanling Marten clan. She is usually quite timid. I didn't expect that she would get close to you and even look shy?"

Hearing Huanxin's teasing, Xiao Meng immediately shrank behind Zeng Wenyu and protested in a low voice: "Patriarch..."

"Hahaha……"

Huanxin smiled and took Zeng Wenyu out of the library. Although Xiaomeng protested, she obediently followed Zeng Wenyu out of the library.

A bonfire has been lit outside. The fire lion's fur has been plucked by Huanxin and it is being roasted over the bonfire. As for the flame used to roast the fire lion, it is naturally its innate flame.

Seeing this scene, Zeng Wenyu realized how great the hatred between the Phantom Marten and the Flame Lion was. After killing the Flame Lion, they used its innate flame to roast it, highlighting that they not only killed someone but also destroyed his heart. If the Flame Lion still had a spirit in heaven, he would probably be so angry that he would come back to life.

"My friend, the meat of a flame lion is not so easy to roast. Let me take this opportunity to tell you about the monk you asked me to help find."

"Senior Huanxin has found Bai Jie?"

"Yes, she is with the White Green Snake. Fortunately, the relationship between the White Green Snake and our Huanling Marten is not too bad. I have asked the patriarch of the White Green Snake clan to take care of her. I believe she will not be in any danger with the White Green Snake," Huan Xin was lying on the ground. "But there is a human male cultivator with her. From the way they talk, it seems that they are not close friends, but the male cultivator has been hanging around her all the time. Moreover, the male cultivator is extremely insidious and can even push away the cultivators who follow him without hesitation. If the Bai Jie you are looking for keeps walking with that male cultivator, if she really encounters any danger, I am afraid that male cultivator will abandon her without hesitation."

"Thank you for telling me, senior. However, that male monk is the one her mother arranged for her to marry. Besides, Bai Jie and I are just friends, so it's not appropriate for me to interfere in their affairs."

"Well, if you want to go find her, I can take you there directly later."

"No need, senior. If we are destined to meet, we will meet again. If not, we can't force it."

Since Zeng Wenyu had said so, Huanxin naturally would not say anything else. It lay quietly on the ground, watching the little phantom martens running and playing beside the campfire.

The temperature of the Flame Lion's innate flame was very high, and it quickly roasted the Flame Lion's body. Huanxin stood up, put away the white flame on the campfire, and evenly divided the roasted Flame Lion's body into small pieces. The little Huanling martens had already been drooling with anticipation, and after Huanxin said it was time to eat, they all started to devour the meal.

Zeng Wenyu naturally ate with them. The roasted fire lion meat had a burning sensation, and he felt warm all over after eating it. After eating all the meat, Zeng Wenyu felt as if his body was burning, and he felt uncomfortable all over. If he hadn't seen the little phantom martens next to him in the same state, Zeng Wenyu would have thought that Huanxin wanted to harm him.

"Hold on, little friend! The longer you can hold on, the higher your resistance to flames and high temperatures will be. If you can hold on completely, you won't have to worry about flames and high temperatures in this world anymore."
