Master's Chief Disciple

Mu Xi and the others had worried looks on their faces, thinking about how to get through the poisonous fog forest.

"Nanxi, have you thought of any other solution?" Mu Xi asked weakly.

"I've tried everything. I'm at my wit's end."

Nanxi threw a lightning bolt over there, and Muxi threw a ball of fire in there, but they were almost ineffective. It was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot. This was the only way to get to Duanyan Mountain and Yao'an Town.

"If only senior sister were here, she would definitely have a way." Mu Xi leaned on Nan Xi's back and sighed helplessly.

"Where are Senior Brother Mo Qi and the others?"

"I'm hungry, and they went to find food."

"Nanxi, your stomach really is a bottomless pit."

"There's nothing I can do. I'm a foodie." The two chatted listlessly.

As they were filled with sorrow, they never expected that the fog was slowly dispersing, and the environment in the forest was slowly revealed. At a glance, the entire forest was dead silent, without any signs of life.

The ground was littered with withered tree trunks and countless animal carcasses. Several people looked at the scene in amazement. Just when everyone present was paying attention to this barren forest;

They didn't notice at all that there were several black snakes on the dead trees and corpses, twisting their soft bodies and spitting out red tongues, rushing towards them at a rapid speed.

"Be careful." Nan Xi shouted, and a bolt of lightning smashed the snake into pieces.

Fortunately, there was no danger. Xing Huang and his companions were frightened and retreated more than ten steps.

"Xing Huang thanks fellow Daoist for saving me." He bowed.

Suddenly, a dark mass appeared in the woods and was crawling towards them at several times the speed from a distance. The constant rustling sound attracted everyone's attention.

"Don't thank me yet." Nan Xi said and made a defensive gesture.

"Let's get through that first." Everyone was puzzled.

A blue light flashed in Nanxi's eyes: "The forest is full of black snakes like those from before. They are extremely poisonous. Don't get bitten.

They are approaching us quickly. Didn't I tell you that you guys are in the Immortal Shadow Realm and can't sense this little movement?"

After hearing this, they all calmed down and after a moment they all assumed defensive and attacking postures.

The atmosphere suddenly became extremely tense. Everyone's nerves were on edge, fearing that they would be bitten by a snake if they were not careful. If they were not treated in time, they would die from the poison!

It was too late to escape, not to mention that if we wanted to get through the forest we would have to face and resolve all possible crises.

The hissing sound was getting closer and closer, and it turned out to be a black snake, twisting its soft body towards them.

After seeing the snake's appearance clearly, Tian Mengyan and Mu Xi were so scared that they screamed, "Ah ...

"Tian Mengyan ran behind Shen Qianmo and trembled with fear.

Mu Xi hid behind Nan Xi, trembling all over: "Nan Xi, please ask them when they will be back. I'm scared."

"No way, my aunt, you are a cultivator who is afraid of snakes."

"It's not just one snake, it's hundreds of them, and they're all black." The voice trembled slightly.

Shen Qianmo glanced at Tian Mengyan behind him and a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes.

Nan Xi sent a spirit butterfly to inform Mo Qi and others to return as soon as possible.

Just when the group of snakes were about to launch an attack, the men didn't give them any chance and simply swung their swords to cut them off one by one. Countless black snakes fell down one after another.

But not long after, they came back to life, and everyone was shocked.

Nan Xi was confused as to what was wrong and thought of the black snake at the beginning: "Only magic can destroy their vitality."

The revived black snake surrounded them from all directions, spitting out red tongues and hissing, then opened its bloody mouth and tried to bite them, but they used their magic power to repel them one by one.

Seeing that they failed to attack them, other black snakes swarmed forward. The ground was full of black snakes that kept attacking them. Some black snakes jumped up and attacked them. The black snakes were no match for them and were almost killed in less than a few rounds.

Snakes are very cunning animals. They will attack once they set their sights on a target. Tian Mengyan and Mu Xi were hiding under a tree not far from them.

Dozens of black snakes spotted the two people in the distance, and they twisted their small bodies towards them. The two people kept backing away, "Don't come over, ah."

At the critical moment, Mo Qi knocked down the black snakes with a flying blade. "Are you all right?"

After confirming that the two were safe, Mo Qi and his companions gathered their spiritual power in their hands to help Nan Xi and the others fight off the black snakes.

After half an hour, all the black snakes were killed one by one.

But within a moment, the rustling sound was heard again in the forest. Several people were dumbfounded. How could there be more? It would never end.

If this goes on, my spiritual power will definitely be exhausted. How many black snakes are there in this forest?

After killing one wave, another wave came, and since the black snake appeared, the fog has never gathered.

Nanxi's personality would definitely not allow this to stand: "There is definitely something strange about this forest. Why do the black snakes keep attacking us? It seems like they won't stop until they knock us down."

"That is, we have become their prey. They will not retreat until they kill us."

"If we continue like this, even if we have more people, we will eventually run out of spiritual energy and die."

"Judging from the current situation, it's extremely disadvantageous for us to be on the defensive all the time. Someone must go in and see what's going on." Nan Xi said in a stern tone.

"I am at the highest level here, you guys protect me." Nan Xi said in a firm tone.

Just as he was about to walk forward, Bai Yu pulled him back, "I'll go with you, so we can both look after each other."

Nan Xi naturally did not refuse. After all, they were film detectives who went out to investigate together, so they naturally had a high level of tacit understanding.

Bai Qige and others outside the forest focused on dealing with those little black snakes, while Mo Qi protected Nan Xi and the others.

Nan Xi and Bai Yu nodded to each other and then used their spiritual power. Nan Xi's body was covered by a purple lightning that made a crackling sound.

Bai Yu was enveloped by an invisible spiritual power, and the two of them ran towards the depths of the forest with a whoosh, one in front and the other behind, flashing and disappearing at an extremely fast speed, and their skills were extremely confusing.

Looking closely at Nan Xi, every time a flash of purple lightning appeared on his body, it knocked down the attacking black snakes one by one, and his figure was unpredictable;

Looking at Bai Yu again, the invisible spiritual power attached to his body would transform into a curved blade every time it flashed and attack the enemy. His figure was blurry and elusive, and the sword in his hand could also attack the enemy when they were unprepared. Each sword carried different degrees of power.

The people outside the forest were now facing the second wave of black snake attacks. When these little black snakes would stop attacking depended on Nan Xi and the other person inside the forest.

They were heading deeper into the forest, and along the way, black snakes kept attacking them. They could only deal with them on their own. "Bai Yu, take a pill of Fuqing Pill quickly." Without asking anything, he took out a pill from the ring and swallowed it.

However, Mu Qing and others from Yunhan Town were still sleeping soundly in the inn. It was already 9:00 p.m., and Xiao Luoyan was awakened by the hawking sounds downstairs.

He touched his rumbling stomach, glanced at Mu Qing who was still sleeping, opened the window to look at the sun, and smelled the aroma of various pastries and snacks wafting from downstairs. His taste buds were immediately stimulated.

Not wanting to wake Mu Qing, she could only tiptoe to other rooms to look for Gao Jue and the others;

Just as I was about to knock on the door, Gao Jue and Wen Qi came out.

"Xiao Luoyan, you're awake. You must be hungry." Gao Jue touched her head and greeted her in a gentle voice.

After nodding, Xiao Luoyan looked around as if he was looking for something: "There is also a brother."

At this time, the door behind him opened. "Good morning, everyone is awake. Let's go downstairs for breakfast. Where's Mu Qing?"

Xiao Luoyan glanced at Gao Jue and the others, then at Gao Moqiu, "Sister Mu Qing is still sleeping, I'll go wake her up."

I hadn't walked a few steps when I bumped into someone, "Hey, who is that?"

Mu Qing looked down and saw that it was Xiao Luoyan. She didn't tell Mu Qing after she got up. Out of concern for Xiao Luoyan, she hurriedly got up and went to find Wen Qi and the others.

"Oh, Xiao Luoyan, I hope you are not hurt."

After shaking his head, he whispered in Mu Qing's ear: "Why does Brother Gao Moqiu have a room all to himself?"

Mu Qing spread his hands after hearing this, "I don't know either."

After asking, he took Mu Qing's hand and walked downstairs: "Boss, give me three baskets of meat buns and five bowls of white porridge."

"Three more bowls of meat wontons, three baskets of sweet buns, a plate of stir-fried vegetables and a plate of beef." Wen Qi said loudly.

"Boss, give me a bowl of plain noodles, five meat patties, and two roasted chickens." Gao Moqiu continued.

"Okay, please wait a moment." The waiter responded warmly and politely.

Mu Qing and Xiao Luoyan turned around, looked at the three of them in surprise, and shrugged.

"Sister, let's go shopping after we finish eating and set off at noon." Mu Qing smiled and nodded in response to her.

After two cups of tea, the food was served one by one: "Please, the two roast chickens and beef will take a while."

After nodding, several people started to eat and chat while using their chopsticks.

"Ha, they say those who practice Taoism don't need to eat, but I just like the delicacies of the human world." Wen Qi said after burping.

"You guys are amazing. Your appetite is just as big as Nanxi's." Mu Qing said calmly.

"Now that we've eaten and drunk enough, Xiao Luoyan, let's go out for a walk." Mu Qing left the three of them and took her hand and walked out of the house.

An archery project outside the inn caught Xiao Luoyan's attention: "Sister Mu Qing, that."

"Archery? I..." She was about to tell Xiao Luoyan that she didn't know archery, but before she could finish her words, she was dragged to participate in the competition.

When I was drawing the bow, my hands were not steady and my movements were a little clumsy.

At this moment, a pair of slender jade hands grabbed her bow hand from behind. Mu Qing was startled and when she looked up, she saw a handsome man with an evil aura.

It was Gao Moqiu: "Why are you looking at me? Look at the target in front of you.

Stand up straight, feet shoulder-width apart, shoulders relaxed, back straight, eyes on the target, hold the bow like this, body relaxed and breathing steady."

With a whoosh, an arrow hit the bull's eye, and the people around applauded.

"Nice talent."

"Gao Moqiu, when did you learn archery? You're so good at hiding your skills." Gao Moqiu just smiled and didn't reply to her.

Xiao Luoyan stepped forward and took a reward, which was a box of bunny-shaped candies.

Ji Baiyuan and his companions had just finished touring Shili Town and were preparing to return to the inn for lunch before setting off for Fengming Forest.

"Hanyu, look at Song Shixin, she always ignores everyone and acts like a princess." Tang Mengmeng rolled her eyes.

"She is indeed too arrogant, but Mengmeng, everyone has different personalities, and she is also a member of our team. Maybe she will like our atmosphere over time."

"I don't think so. Who can stand her temper? Only my senior brother..."

Fang Hanyu hushed after hearing this: "Take your time. Give her some time."

"Boss, give me five servings of rice, two bowls of plain noodles, a plate of stir-fried vegetables, a plate of beef, a plate of mutton, a plate of tofu soup, a grilled fish, a medicinal chicken, three servings of milk cake, and five bowls of your restaurant's signature soup." Ji Baiyuan said loudly.

"Okay, please take a seat, and the food will be served shortly."

"Boss, please pack ten more meat pancakes and a roast chicken, ten pineapple cakes, two gourds of wine, and three gourds of braised plum soup." Su Yun said.
