The vicious female supporting role in the book cultivation world is crazy and involuntarily

"Boom."

An attack came from behind, Cheng Sangjie raised his hand and summoned a magic shield to block it.

Lu Zhaozhao looked closely and saw that the seemingly fierce attack coming towards them was actually just a few thin green leaves, which fell down one after another after being blocked by Cheng Sangjie.

She walked a little closer and picked up the fallen leaves. Cheng Sangjie stood beside her, in a defensive posture, looking at her sideways.

"Can you see anything?"

Lu Zhaozhao turned the leaf over, pulled it open to examine the structure inside, shook his head, and said, "It's just an ordinary leaf, even small and soft compared to the other branches and leaves here. It was man-made, and the person's cultivation is not low, but this person does not seem to be hostile, just wanting to warn us."

She stood up, dusted herself off, and looked in the direction where the leaves came from.

There is only lush greenery and endless trees ahead. The tall treetops block out the sun, and the farthest point as far as the eye can see is darkness. However, this inexplicably gives rise to a desire to explore in people's hearts.

"Second brother? Second brother!"

Nan Rongrui saw two people standing upright not far away. He called out a few times out of curiosity, but heard no response. He couldn't help but run over and tugged at Cheng Sangjie's sleeve, shouting loudly in his ear.

Cheng Sangjie's eardrums trembled because of her noise, and he looked over with a frown.

"Second brother, what are you doing?" Nan Rongrui saw that he looked unhappy, shrank his neck and whispered.

After saying that, she followed his gaze and looked. It seemed to be similar to the surrounding scenery, but for some reason she had an impulse to go closer and take a look.

She had just taken two steps when Cheng Sangjie grabbed her arm.

"Where are you going?" Cheng Sangjie shouted.

"I, I just want to go over and take a look." Nan Rongrui looked innocent. She couldn't explain why she walked forward, but her body seemed to move forward uncontrollably.

After hearing her words, Lu Zhaozhao looked at the darkness in the distance thoughtfully. When he turned around, he met Cheng Sangjie's equally dark eyes.

"It seems that the man was not just giving a warning." He smiled, a hint of murderous intent flashing in his eyes.

"In that case, why not go and take a look?" Lu Zhaozhao also smiled, but the smile was not visible in his eyes.

After saying that, the two of them walked forward together.

Nan Rongrui wandered between the two of them with a look of confusion the whole time. After listening to a few words they said that she couldn't understand, he left on his own, leaving her and Tushan Xixiang alone looking at each other in bewilderment.

"Who is he? Who wants to warn us?" Nan Rongrui asked Tushan Xixiang, and the only answer he got was a shake of the head. Tushan Xixiang had just been with Nan Rongrui, so he was not clear about the current situation.

In fact, he was like this most of the time. Only after his second brother analyzed the situation with him step by step could he understand that everyone around him thought he was just a reckless man with brute force. Even his fellow tribesmen privately criticized him for being lucky, being born the son of the tribe leader and having a brother who was so wise that he was almost a demon. But for him, his brother's words were the golden rule, and he always obeyed them unconditionally.

But Nan Rongrui's state of mind was different from his.

She was born into a family of destiny, gifted with intelligence and noble blood. Her younger brother is the future successor of the Di people, and her older brother is the current patriarch of the Gu Diao tribe. Therefore, she can act freely among the eight tribes. Unlike Tu Shan Xi Xiang's unconditional obedience, she must have absolute control over the overall situation when doing things. Fortunately, other people are willing to follow her, thus cultivating her current character.

But since Guannan appeared, everything has changed.

Her brother, who had always doted on her, now had eyes for someone else and a secret from her. This was the first time Nan Rongrui had encountered such a situation among her peers. Guan Nan's cultivation was higher than hers, and he was also descended from Nüba. For the first time, she didn't have the advantage in either cultivation or status. It was also the first time, facing an outsider, her brother didn't side with her.

All of this originated from the woman in green in front.

"Guan Nan." Nan Rongrui uttered the name softly, with a hint of fear in his eyes.

Lu Zhaozhao in front did not sense the emotions behind her. She was completely focused on the road ahead.

"Did you hear any sound?" Cheng Sangjie beside him suddenly asked.

"What?" Lu Zhaozhao didn't react for a moment and turned her head too quickly, bumping into him.

Cheng Sangjie was stunned for a moment, then pulled away a little and said, "It's nothing, I was just worrying too much."

Cheng Sangjie adjusted his breathing and continued walking forward. He had just heard Guannan's voice, a brisk tone, as if calling him, which made him panic for a moment. When he came to his senses, he realized that he had lost his composure a little, but fortunately, the people around him didn't notice.

The more Lu Zhaozhao walked, the more he felt something was amiss. Logically, their pace wasn't slow, but after a while, the shadows of the trees around them remained the same, as if they were just spinning in circles.

Her steps became slower and slower, until she finally stopped.

Cheng Sangjie thought Guannan was tired and was about to ask if she wanted to rest, but he fell silent after seeing the expression on her face.

Lu Zhaozhao looked around, stroking the broken Yuanxu mirror in his hand, as if thinking about something.

Nan Rongrui wanted to speak but was stopped by Cheng Sangjie.

The only sounds left in the world were their breathing.

"Shh-"

The long sword broke through the air and stabbed towards the top at a rapid speed.

Lu Zhaozhao made sword gestures with his hands and controlled the direction of the flying bamboo sword.

The sword shuttled through the forest, cutting off the falling leaves and galloping freely in the vast sky and earth.

But it suddenly stopped when it was a few feet above the ground.

Lu Zhaozhao, who was manipulating the bamboo sword, clearly noticed that something was blocking the way ahead.

Cheng Sangjie also understood at this moment. He gave Nan Rongrui a look and immediately understood. He transformed into his original form and spread his wings, and several dark blue feather arrows shot out in all directions.

"Boom, boom..."

They made a dull thud almost at the same moment and quickly fell backwards.

It was a huge transparent cover that trapped them all. The air inside was thick and time was stagnant, so no matter where they moved, they would be in the same place in time and space as before.

She figured it out, and Cheng Sangjie was naturally not bad either.

He whispered something to Tushan Xixiang. Suddenly, Tushan Xixiang's muscles began to swell, making his already broad frame appear even larger. He took a half-horse stance, holding his breath, and his figure began to blur.

A fish tail that covered the sky rose from the ground, and with a slight movement, the surrounding tree trunks broke neatly in the middle.

"Fish tail, human body, is this... the Di people?" Lu Zhaozhao thought to himself.

On the other side, Tu Dan Xixiang had already transformed, raised his fish tail and slammed into the barrier.

The earth shook for a moment. Lu Zhaozhao was sharp-eyed and glanced up at the sky. He saw tiny cracks appearing in the sky.

Tudan Xixiang was a bit surprised that his attack had failed. Nothing had ever left unscathed by his attack. His interest was piqued, and he swung his tail again, crashing into the barrier.

Perhaps the barrier had been attacked, causing the space to become unstable, Lu Zhaozhao barely clung to the tree trunk beside her, swaying left and right for support. She looked at Tudan Xixiang, who seemed to be in a frenzy, his attacks becoming more powerful and more frequent.

The tree trunk next to Lu Zhaozhao suddenly broke, and she lost her support and fell forward due to inertia.

Just as she was about to scream, someone gently supported her arm. Lu Zhaozhao looked up and saw Cheng Sangjie looking at her with indescribable emotions in his eyes.

He looked at Lu Zhaozhao deeply and whispered, "Excuse me." But he just looked away and did not let go of the hand he was holding.

Lu Zhaozhao felt a little uncomfortable. She pulled at her hands but couldn't get them free, so she gave up.

Why not have a human pillar? she thought.

The cracks in the air were as dense and deep as a spider web. The entire barrier was shattered and completely shattered when Tu Dan Xixiang arrived.

The air began to circulate, time began to flow, and they returned to the real world.

The ground beneath my feet was still covered with fallen leaves, and behind me was the third level of the intersection I had just passed.

Only now did they truly enter the third level of this restricted area.
