Ji Yunchen concealed the doubt in his eyes and said tentatively, "It's too dangerous for you, a child, to be here. Let me take you home."

Shen Daixing looks naive, but she actually knows everything in her mind and knows that he is testing her.

She shook her head gently, tears flickering in her eyes: "Uncle, actually I don't have a home anymore. I have been separated from my family for many years."

Ji Yunchen once again felt the critique of being called uncle.

"What's your name? Maybe I can help you find your family." Ji Yunchen said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Shen Daixing's heart moved, and she made up a story: "My name is Long Batian, and my brother is Long Aotian."

There was a moment of silence in the air, and then Ji Yunchen smiled and said, "Uh, what a unique name."

After saying the name Long Batian, Shen Daixing felt a little suffocated and she wanted to burst into laughter.

But you have to endure it, otherwise it will be a waste of time.

Shen Daixing felt that she couldn't let him continue asking questions like this, and she had to take the initiative.

She sat down on the ground, raised her innocent face, and said softly, "Uncle, what are you doing here alone?"

Ji Yunchen's eyes flashed, and he said, "I came here to look for treasure, but I didn't expect to meet you."

She thought to herself: They are all thousand-year-old foxes, are they playing Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio here?

Shen Daixing began to look around, trying to find a way out.

The trees around were extremely tall, larger than those outside, and the air was filled with a faint fragrance.

"Let's leave here first." Ji Yunchen suggested.

Just as she was feeling sleepy, the pillow was brought to her. Shen Daixing was also hesitating about what excuse to make to leave.

She nodded: "Yeah."

Seeing her little girl, Ji Yunchen wanted to carry her along, but Shen Daixing refused.

She summoned a flying carpet, sat on it neatly, turned to him and said, "Uncle, do you want to come with me?"

The flying carpet can be made bigger or smaller, so he has no problem adding several of them.

Ji Yunchen nodded in agreement.

So the two of them left here together and began to travel through this unknown forest, testing each other as they walked.

Ji Yunchen still felt that there was something strange about this little girl. He was sure that she was an ordinary person, but why could she control a flying carpet?

The last person this strange was a woman I met in the secret forest more than fifty years ago, but she is dead.

"Why are you being chased by that monster?" he suddenly asked.

Shen Daixing was stunned. She didn't expect him to ask this question.

It hesitated for a moment, but decided to confess. If you tell too many lies, you will always have to cover them up. Half-truths are easier to believe.

She said slowly, "I took a spiritual herb. The monster was probably guarding it. It discovered me, so it chased me all the way."

In fact, she was not sure about it. Ji Yunchen should not be the kind of person who would snatch things from children.

If Ji Yunchen knew that she was so critical of him in her heart, he would be so angry that he would spit blood.

He nodded silently, as if thinking about something.

After a moment, he said, "I see. That monster won't give up chasing you easily, unless..."

"Unless what?" Shen Daixing asked.

"Unless you are stronger than it or stay with someone stronger than it, it will naturally give up chasing you." Shen Daixing looked at Ji Yunchen and found that he was also looking at her. She wondered if this man said that on purpose because he wanted her to follow him?

A trace of worry and vigilance arose in her heart, but she was also a little hesitant. What if the monster chased her again?

"Uncle, can I follow you for a while? I can leave after the monster gives up on me." She asked tentatively.

Ji Yunchen was waiting for her to say this, so he agreed immediately, smiling with his peach blossom eyes, "Sure."

Shen Daixing suddenly felt like she had shot herself in the foot. What was going on?

However, she did need his strength to protect her now.

Then just follow him for now and leave when you find an opportunity.

Ji Yunchen was also full of doubts. He didn't know who this little girl was, but he knew that she must have some unknown secret.

In the silent forest, the two looked at each other in silence.

Where to go depends entirely on Ji Yunchen's decision. Shen Daixing will let the flying carpet fly wherever he points.

So later on, she didn't need any instructions at all. As soon as Ji Yunchen said the direction, the flying carpet would automatically follow his command.

Shen Daixing's face was puffed up with depression, and she cursed in her heart: Flying carpet of a lackey!

Watching him directing the entire journey, she couldn't help but ask, "Where are we going?"

Ji Yunchen's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, and he said with a warm expression: "Send you out of this area, so that no monsters will chase you."

Upon hearing this, Shen Daixing was stunned.

She pretended to be aggrieved and said, "If you think I'm troublesome, I'll leave now."

He made a gesture and let the flying carpet land on the ground.

Ji Yunchen asked in confusion, "You should know that this place is very dangerous and there are basically no people here. Wouldn't it be better to send you out?"

What could she say? She couldn't leave the Monster Territory anyway.

Ji Yunchen took note of her expression and knew there was something fishy going on.

She was a little tired of this test-and-fly mode of getting along with others, so she decided to just let the monster chase her.

I'm going to die anyway, so I'll just do it!

Shen Daixing made a decision secretly and said solemnly: "Thank you for saving me, I'd better leave by myself. This is a thank you gift."

She took out the Earth Emperor Essence from her cloth bag, looked at Ji Yunchen meaningfully, and then walked in the opposite direction.

Ji Yunchen knew that he had gone too far and was always testing the little girl, which was annoying.

He quickly stopped her and said apologetically, "I'm sorry for being abrupt. Don't be angry, Miss Long."

Shen Daixing didn't say anything, but pouted her lips and looked away with her soft face.

Seeing this, Ji Yunchen couldn't help but laugh. He returned the Earth Emperor Essence to her and coaxed her softly, "I'll give this back to you. Uncle doesn't want this. Can we go together?"

No matter what her purpose is, she can't leave a little kid wandering around in the monster territory. It's too dangerous.

Shen Daixing looked at the Earth Emperor Essence in her hand, then put it into the cloth bag and snorted awkwardly.

"I don't ask why you're here. I can probably help you with whatever you want to do," he said with a smile.

Showing courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing.

She wouldn't believe him.

However, one should not strike a smiling person. After thinking for a moment, she hesitated and said, "I want to learn alchemy. There are many magical herbs and treasures here, enough for me to learn. I won't go out for the time being."

Anyway, there is nothing I can plot against her, so I'll just come clean and stop pretending.

Ji Yunchen subconsciously wanted to keep her, and whispered: "Okay, if you want any magical herbs or herbs, I can go with you to get them."

He then added, "Now, where do you say we'll go? Is that okay?"

Shen Daixing nodded, that’s pretty good.
