After the rebirth of the master's wife who was hated by everyone, all of them were burned to de

"Giggle."

The ferret was not polite and climbed directly up her legs along her feet.

"You left in a hurry before, and I didn't have the chance to thank you." Lin Xuxi held the ferret in her right hand and tapped the ferret's nose teasingly with her left hand.

The ferret got a little annoyed and started kicking again.

"Alright, alright, stop kicking." Lin Xuxi petted the ferret soothingly, then took out a few edibles: a medicinal herb, some common berries in the world of immortal cultivation, and a bar of maltose.

"I know you have awakened your intelligence, so I won't fool you with ordinary things. These are all for you. Eat them slowly, one by one." Lin Xuxi handed over the orange-red berries the size of a thumb.

But the ferret was unwilling to open its mouth, and instead pounced on the malt sugar.

As expected, many spirit beasts are like three or four-year-old children when they first awaken. They want to eat what children like, so they bring out the malt sugar.

Lin Xuxi didn't let it down and handed the maltose to its mouth. Regardless of whether it ate or licked it, she just let it do what it wanted. After all, there was water nearby, so she could just wash her hands when the time came.

"Can you take me to Longquan Villa?" Lin Xuxi nodded at the ferret that was lying on her hand and eating malt sugar.

The ferret clearly understood what was said and stopped eating the candy, looking up at the person holding it. Its bean-sized eyes seemed to be asking: What are you doing at Longquan Villa?

"I'm going to Longquan Villa to find the owner. I have something to ask him." Lin Xuxi said frankly with a smile, "I'm not a bad person. I just want to solve a mystery, a mystery that has been puzzling me for a long time. I think one of the answers is here in Longquan Villa."

After hearing this, the ferret continued to eat the candy.

"Don't just listen, tell me first whether you are willing or not, okay?" Lin Xuxi nodded the ferret's head.

But the ferret didn't say whether it was willing or not, and just buried its head in eating the candy.

"Forget it." Lin Xuxi didn't want to embarrass him. She figured if it wasn't here, it must be on another hill. But she still had a long way to go, and she didn't know what obstacles lay ahead.

The ferret stayed with her all night and left quietly at dawn. Before leaving, it took the maltose that Lin Xuxi had used to coax it and disappeared without a trace.

Lin Xuxi washed his hands and then went down the mountain.

The miasma grew thicker and thicker, so thick that you couldn't see your hand in front of you. It was also choking and smelled like sulfuric acid.

"Ahem—" Lin Xuxi began to feel a little uncomfortable, but she remembered the medicine Tao Fengzhi had given her, which was effective for at least a month. She had definitely not been here for a month, but she felt that the miasma was so thick that it seemed to be substantial.

It was no longer mist, but a sickening smoke.

Lin Xuxi felt so uncomfortable that she stopped and leaned against a tree to relax. Her throat was itchy and she wanted to vomit. "Ahem—what's going on here?"

She could no longer even see her hands on the tree trunk.

"This miasma is so strangely thick." When Lin Xuxi was about to move forward, she heard another cough, which was getting closer and closer.

Lin Xuxi immediately summoned the Bingxu Sword and grasped it in her hand, alert to the incoming person. She wondered if it was that dark figure? But if it was her, how had she managed to avoid the cold blood vines and follow him to this place?

"Cough-cough-"

The coughing sound was getting closer, and Lin Xuxi raised his sword and stabbed at the source. Even if he couldn't hurt her, it would still be a deterrent.

Lin Xuxi could only feel something holding the sword blade, followed by a scream.

"Is that a man's voice?" It wasn't the man who had bound her feet! The difference between their voices was worlds apart, so she could tell them apart. She retracted her sword and asked, "Who's here?"

"I should be asking you why you are here!"

In the maze, the two of them were very close to each other and could only see each other clearly.

Lin Xuxi had never seen this young man before. He looked to be in his early twenties. His cultivation level seemed to be only in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. His face was blurry, and it was difficult to make out his features.

She squinted her eyes, trying to see the other person's face clearly through the thick fog, but the miasma was too thick. She had no choice but to move closer, but she didn't dare to move closer, as it would be a bit offensive.

Zhong Sunli looked as if this wasn't his first time seeing Lin Xuxi, and his cheeks were visibly red, like boiled shrimp, instantly turning red.

"You, why are you here?" he asked in a low voice, but she just didn't hear him.

Unfortunately, the two of them weren't close enough in the miasma, so Lin Xuxi didn't notice anything unusual about the other person. He retracted his sword, bowed, and asked, "May I ask who this fellow Taoist is?"

A young man appeared in this place again, and he looked smart and dressed in tea-white shorts. She guessed that the man in front of her might be from Longquan Villa?

"I'm Zhongsun Li. May I ask you, Senior?" Zhongsun Li could tell that Lin Xuxi's cultivation was not simple, at least at the Spiritual Transformation stage. And he had never seen that divine weapon before.

Just a brief grip and he felt his arm go numb, even shaking his cultivation. He was already in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, and even just a light grip had such power. If he really fought, he would probably not last more than three moves.

How could the cultivation level of someone who could activate such a magical weapon be simple?

"Master Lin of Xuanyu Sect, Lin Xuxi." Lin Xuxi didn't know whether the other party knew her name or not. It would be good if she could find someone from Longquan Villa. That way she could ask someone to lead the way, which was better than wandering around in circles here.

"Cough cough——" It was just that the miasma seemed to be scratching my throat, making it very uncomfortable.

"Xuanyu Sect?"

Zhong Sunli had heard of the Xuanyu Sect, but Master Lin? He didn't know. He rarely left Longquan Villa, so it was normal for him to be unaware of what was happening in the outside world.

However, the owner of the manor, who often went out, often mentioned the Xuanyu Sect and was quite impressed by it, so he shouldn't be a bad person. Moreover, she was extremely beautiful, so she didn't look like a bad person either.

"Are you from Longquan Villa?" Lin Xuxi asked.

Being called back from his trance, Zhongsun Li clasped his fists and replied, "Yes."

"Could you take me to Longquan Villa? I want to meet your owner." Lin Xuxi put away the Bingxu Sword and bowed, saying, "Thank you for your help, young friend."

"The owner of the manor is not here." Zhongsun Li did not reveal his identity immediately. Although he did not go out often, he was not stupid and still had the necessary vigilance.

Zhong Sunli approached this so-called Master Lin. He even dared to grab her wrist and whispered, "Besides, Longquan Villa is in trouble now."

It's just that the blush on his face and his throat dry from coughing sounded a bit ambiguous, but his words were serious.

Lin Xuxi wasn't used to being touched, so she pulled her hand back and asked, "What's so difficult?"

After his hand was pulled back, Zhongsun Li realized that he had been too reckless. He quickly clasped his fists and said, "It was unintentional. Please forgive me, Senior."

"It's okay. What difficulty are you talking about?" Lin Xuxi didn't want to pursue the matter just now. She waved her hand and asked, "Who are you to Longquan Villa? How do you know that Longquan Villa is in trouble?"
