Maybe I shouldn't die.

But Fang Yue knew. When she discovered that a large number of magic spells were attacking this side, she anticipated that she would be affected and quickly activated the defensive magic weapon in her hand.

But before she could activate the magic weapon, a protective shield fell on her, protecting her tightly.

Those spells only caused slight ripples when they hit the protective shield, but failed to cause any harm to those inside.

She couldn't help but turn her head to look, and saw that the Jindan senior had just retracted his hand that was casting the spell. The protective shield was obviously cast by the other party. The monster in front of him that wanted to attack him had been caught by a Yuanying senior who suddenly appeared.

The monster's attack didn't hit him at all.

but,

All the spells that were originally intended to attack monsters were directed at him.

Although he blocked a lot of them in time, some of the magic still fell on him.

Seeing this scene, Fang Yue immediately understood that it was this Jindan senior who protected her.

The Jindan cultivator himself was also quite helpless.

He did not expect that these foundation-building monks would suddenly attack the monsters.

Although the Yuanying senior who was hiding in the dark took action in time, blocked the monster's attack for him and captured the monster.

However, the opponent had no time to deal with these magical attacks and could only wait for him to solve them himself.

It's not that he can't solve the problem, but there is also a medical practitioner within the attack range of this magic.

He was just a foundation-building cultivator. It was impossible for him to avoid the impact of the magic. What's more, the other party was called by him to do the work, so he was affected.

In just a moment, he made up his mind to take action to block the attack for the opponent, but because of this, he failed to completely block the attacks coming towards him.

If he were in his prime, he would not have taken this attack seriously, but he was injured.

The attack landed on his body, causing injuries and a sudden fishy-sweet taste in his mouth.

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart that his luck was really bad. In order to recuperate from his injuries, he took a mission that didn't require any hands-on work, but ended up encountering things like monster spirits.

But he was also glad that he was alert enough and did not let the demon soul get away. The appearance of a demon soul that he had never seen before in a border town where the battlefield between humans and demons was intertwined was not a good thing at first glance.

He felt emotional in his heart, but his hands moved quickly. A bottle of spiritual milk for healing appeared in his hand, and he poured it all into his mouth. With the nourishment of the spiritual milk, the injuries on his body felt a little better.

Then he turned and looked at the Nascent Soul cultivator.

"Senior Huang, the monster has been captured. We need you to find someone to investigate. My injuries are more serious. I'm afraid I can't complete the investigation."

The Nascent Soul cultivator known as Senior Huang nodded and said:

"I have already notified someone to replace you, and they should be here soon."

As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding protective formation was triggered. The Jindan cultivator immediately took out a token, opened an entrance, and allowed the person who triggered the formation to walk in.

The monks around were surprised. They didn't even notice when the protective formation was activated. Fang Yue was also surprised. It was only then that she realized that the protective formation had been activated around her.

Thinking carefully, she remembered that when she was casting the purification spell on Cong Ming, she seemed to have noticed that this Jindan uncle took out a token and rubbed it for a few times.

The token looked somewhat similar in style to the one he had in his hand now.

But how could the formation be activated so quickly? There was no fluctuation yet? Could it be a formation that was created with a special technique and activated instantly?

She remembered that this kind of formation was extremely difficult to refine. It required at least a high-level formation master or above. And not every high-level formation master could refine it. At least she had never seen this kind of formation when she was in the sect.

Or maybe there was, but it was too expensive and she ignored it. After all, when she bought an array, she would not look at things that were too far beyond her budget.

While his thoughts were wandering, the cultivator who had triggered the formation walked in, and the entrance to the protective formation had disappeared.

Seeing this situation, Fang Yue knew that they couldn't leave for the time being.

Now that monster spirits have appeared, it's normal that you can't leave.

But why is there another monk in black robes? It seems that the monks in this border town particularly like to wear black robes. Is it because black robes are more resistant to getting dirty?

But these are robes, and most of them have self-cleaning arrays, so there is no need to worry about them getting stained.

It was just a coincidence that the monks she met were dressed in black clothes.

The new cultivator walked up to Senior Huang, saluted him, and then began to ask about the situation here.

They used a secret method of transmitting sound. Fang Yue could only see their lips moving slightly but could not hear what they said. She just saw the Jindan cultivator's expression becoming more and more serious as they talked.

Fang Yue guessed that they must have mentioned her, because the Jindan cultivator turned around and looked at her several times.

I don't know what I said.

But it shouldn't be a bad thing.

The conversation over there ended quickly. Senior Huang put the bound monster soul into the magic weapon, picked up Cong Ming who was still in a possessed state, and then found a place to sit down.

The injured Jindan cultivator did the same. He quickly stood up and found a place to sit down.

Only the new senior walked up to them and spoke in a loud voice:

"A demon spirit has appeared here. To avoid any accidents, you are required to stay here temporarily. You can leave only after you have cleared the demon spirit."

Everyone had expected this and no one refused.

But unexpectedly, the Jindan cultivator sat down after saying this.

Everyone couldn't help but look at each other. Didn't they say they were going to investigate their innocence? Why didn't the senior take any action? Some people couldn't help but want to step forward to ask, but were stopped by their companions. Some people seemed to have guessed something and also sat down like the senior.

Fang Yue has also returned to her fellow disciples. She is actually a little hesitant because she has not yet thanked the Jindan senior for saving her.

The main reason was that she didn't find a chance to thank him. She couldn't possibly interrupt the other person when he was talking. There was no conversation at the moment, but the other person was already meditating to heal his injuries, so it was not a suitable time to thank him.

She could only keep this matter in mind.

Anyway, I can't get out for a while, so I'll wait until the senior finishes meditating and then find a chance to go up and thank him.

Thinking this in his mind, Fang Yue sat down on the spot like the other fellow disciples.

Just as she sat down, she found that the team leader came to her side and asked in a low voice how the monster was caught.

Fang Yue did not hide anything and told him everything that had happened before in detail.

After listening to this, the senior brother nodded thoughtfully. It was obvious that he had thought of something, but he did not say it out loud.
