Cold Priest VS Ancient Ferocious Beast

After resting, the army set out again towards the South China Sea.

"Wei Xiaoxianjun, how do you know that my illusion is my father?"

The guard was curious.

"...You're calling for your father."

"I'm just going to sit on the ground and yell?"

"Ah."

The guard felt very embarrassed for a moment.

"Then how do you know he was killed by the demon world?"

"You said it while you were sitting on the ground."

"what?"

Although I was ambushed, it was difficult for me to accept when I was sober that I had sat on the ground and cried and shouted about so many family matters in front of everyone.

"Ah! I was bewitched by the water spirit. I'm not like that myself."

No matter how embarrassing it is, the better to clear yourself of it.

"Do you know my name?"

"I don't know. You didn't say anything when you were sitting there."

"Uh... hehe, my name is Lin Xuan."

"Ah."

"No one from the Monster Forest is as cold as you. The book says that the Water Horse Beast is just a little bit docile. Is that book lying to me?"

"..."

Mo Zhu became autistic again.

"Have you ever seen a Qiongqi beast in the Monster Forest?"

"……No."

"No? You should have seen one at your age. There's one in the Qingchen Priest's Hall."

Lin Xuan said the second half of the sentence in a voice as low as possible.

"..."

"I've never seen it before, but it's said to be incredibly powerful."

"Oh?" Mo Zhu became interested instantly.

"Haven't you heard? That doesn't make sense. Who from the Monster Forest has never heard of Qiongqi?"

"I've heard that not all monsters in the Monster Forest can be encountered. How powerful is that Qiongqi you mentioned?"

"In the first few battles, I felt like I couldn't hold on any longer, but every time at the critical moment, the war would suddenly subside. The immortal soldiers all said that it was the Qiongqi Beast from the Qingchen Priestly Palace that came to fight, but I never saw it."

"The other immortal soldiers saw it, but you didn't. Did you hide?"

"How is that possible? One time my father died, another time my eldest brother died, and another time my second brother died. I didn't have time to look at it at the time."

"..."

Mo Zhu didn't know how to respond for a moment, but Lin Xuan kept talking.

"You don't have to be silent. I've come to terms with it."

"Actually, I'm not quite sure what the point of being an immortal soldier is. Maybe it's to flatten the demon world and save all living beings, but after the demon world is flattened, what happens after saving all living beings?"

"I don't have an answer. I really couldn't think of getting out of that illusion. I just thought it was my father, and he was taking me to find my brothers. I would exhaust my spiritual power during the reunion with them, and then die."

"I can't think of a better way to die than this. I can't do anything to Huan Yuan who looks so much like my father. I just feel like it would be nice if I died like this."

"But you're right. I shouldn't let myself sink into death because of the unjust deaths of my father and brothers. I'm the only one who can avenge them, so thank you."

"Need not."

"I didn't expect that even though you don't talk, when you do, you can say something so enlightening."

"What do you Water Horsemon usually like? I'll give it to you when I get back from this battle."

"Need not."

"Yes! My father and brothers left me a lot of good things!"

"...Water Horse Beast likes to eat grass."

"Ah... you still like eating grass even though you're already in human form?"

"Yes, in layman's terms, I'm a vegetarian."

"Got it! Got it! Leave your meals to me! Do you have any particular favorite grass...er, vegetarian food?"

“Water horses aren’t picky eaters.”

"Row!"

At the end of the conversation, Mo Zhu didn't hear a few words about how powerful Qiongqi was, and he even won the grass that he disliked the most, so he became indifferent again.
