Building a sect from scratch.

Chapter 73 Cabbage Runs Fast
As soon as he finished speaking, black mist rolled in all around, and a chilling wind blew; yellow sand swirled, piercing through rocks and splashing dirt, making it difficult for Wang Ergou and his two companions to even open their eyes.

Then, Yun Guanxia's eyes turned light gold, and her pupils shrank to a narrow point, like a cat's eyes. Even the corners of her mouth revealed two long, sharp tiger teeth, and three fluffy red tails emerged from behind her, swaying and waving. Each tail was over a meter long and looked thick and powerful.

"Fuck!"

The three of them gasped in unison, stunned by what they saw.

Bai Chenxue's eyes lit up instantly, and she screamed, "Sister, don't eat me yet! Let me touch your tail! I'm a Fu Rui fanatic!"

"?"

Wang Ergou and Jia Xiaoren looked at Bai Chenxue with question marks on their foreheads, their expressions indescribable.

Yun Guanxia also looked over in shock, her pupils dilating instantly, as if she were looking at a fool.

Bai Chenxue still wasn't satisfied, her eyes glued to the three fluffy tails, excitedly shouting, "Ahhh, let me touch them! Please, dear sister! The ingredients' mood is important too!"

"Noisy!"

The next second, before the three could react, Yun Guanxia's tail coiled around them, and each of them was caught by one of the tails and tightly bound.

Jia Xiaoren typed in the team chat with a gloomy expression: "Damn it, I feel like this BOSS is even scarier than that Demon in the dungeon! We have to wait for the resurrection cooldown again!"

Wang Ergou typed in response: "They're calling for reinforcements. I'm just asking someone to inquire with Senior Sister!"

Only Bai Chenxue's style was completely different: "It feels a bit hard, but so smooth. Sigh, why won't you let go of my hand? Although it's nice to be wrapped in a tail, I really want to stroke a fox's tail, sob sob!"

Jia Xiaoren glanced next door and saw that Bai Chenxue was also tightly bound, but her hands were sticking out from below. She was struggling to bend her palms upwards, touching the tiny bit of fur that she could reach. As she touched it, a lewd smile appeared on her face that was completely out of place with the character she was sculpting.

Jia Xiaoren was greatly shocked: I don't really understand you Furui fans.jpg
Soon, Yun Guanxia led the three of them into the Three Stone Cave. As soon as they entered, they heard a burst of piercing laughter:

"Hahaha, my dear sister, I can smell human flesh!"

A man in a red brocade robe emerged from the crowd.

Yun Guanxia said coquettishly, "Brother, you have such a keen nose! Anyone who didn't know better would think you came from our Chiyuan Cave!"

The three were swayed back and forth in mid-air, feeling dizzy and disoriented. It took them quite a while for Yun Guanxia to stop and regain their senses. Only then did they realize that the man in red robes was actually a monster with a human body and a snake tail. In the dark cave, the dark red snake tail stretched as far as the eye could see, looking extremely terrifying.

Jia Xiaoren was already somewhat afraid of snakes, and when he saw such a large snake appear, he was so frightened that his eyes rolled back and he fainted.

Wang Ergou didn't notice Jia Xiaoren, who took a screenshot and included it in "Illustrated Records of the Ten Continents," and even authenticated it.

Although the identification results only showed that it was a giant cinnabar python demon, based on what Yun Guanxia just said, it is not difficult to deduce that this is probably the red-robed monster!

The python demon chuckled casually, "It's because I've been around you for so long that I've picked up your foxy scent!"

Yun Guanxia replied sweetly, "Brother, you love my scent so much!"

Wait, is this something we can listen to for free?!
Wang Ergou and Bai Chenxue exchanged a glance and immediately perked up their ears.

...Rewind a few minutes. After being thrown out of the black mist, the little mongrel cabbage, which no one had noticed, barked twice in agitation. It was then frightened by the sudden burst of powerful demonic energy and trembled with fear. It instinctively scrambled away into the distance.

It wasn't until it had run out of the area where the demonic energy of the Three Stone Cave was spreading that it let out a wailing sound, frantically pacing around in circles.

Bai Chenxue had "died" several times before. Each time, she would throw the cabbage to a safe place and let it escape on its own. Then, after resurrecting, she would find it again based on the markings on the map. The markings were tracking talismans that Bai Chenxue had specially asked Zhao Qing to search through many books in the sect's library. Bai Chenxue put them in a small pouch and hung them around the cabbage's neck.

So, although the little cabbage couldn't understand that its owner could be resurrected after death, it was still trained to some extent to develop a conditioned reflex. As long as Bai Chenxue threw it far away and said "Run!", it would run away and hide as fast as it could, so that it could be rewarded with meat paste afterward.

However, training is one thing, but encountering real danger is another.

Although the cabbage was also commanded to "run fast," it instinctively sensed that its owner was being swallowed by demonic energy and was likely to die. Throwing it out was a way to save its life!

How can this work!

However, although the cabbage was stupid, it at least knew that if it crawled in again, it would only be another meal. But it had no other choice but to whimper in frustration.

"Hey, where did this little beast come from?"

A young man dressed in a dark red robe rode by on a cloud. Hearing the whistling sound, he landed on the ground out of curiosity.

The cabbage sensed the demonic aura and was so frightened that its fur stood on end. It turned tail and ran away in a panic.

"Huh? It can actually sense me?"

The boy's interest grew even stronger. He saw that the cabbage's white fur was glossy and smooth, and it was round and cute. He immediately had the idea of ​​catching it and playing with it. So, like a cat chasing a mouse, he slowly followed behind the cabbage. Whenever the cabbage got tired and slowed down, panting heavily, he would pretend to reach out to grab it and tease it, saying, "Can't run anymore? Then I'll eat you!"

The cabbage would always bark in fright and instinctively run back along the familiar path, its short legs taking great effort.

The boy's expression grew increasingly serious as he followed the cabbage. When he finally saw a bamboo grove in the distance, he stopped teasing it and picked it up.

"You've got some skills; you actually managed to get all the way here!"

Suddenly losing its weight and being pressed down by demonic energy, Bai Cai frantically pawed at the ground, baring its teeth and barking. If the boy had understood dog language, he might have been able to comprehend how foul Bai Cai's insults were. However, even if he didn't understand, he roughly knew that the dog in his arms was cursing him, and thus, anger arose within him.

"A mere, mindless little beast, yet it has quite the nerve!"

As he spoke, the boy lost interest and casually threw the cabbage on the ground. Seeing that it seemed to have its internal organs shattered, writhing in pain and whimpering, he was overjoyed and cursed, "A beast is a beast! It has no sense of propriety at all! Humph!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Lingju sensed an extremely terrifying pressure rushing towards him. He saw a mound of earth rapidly approaching, and something seemed to be burrowing from the ground. The boy's expression changed drastically. He glanced deeply at the bamboo forest, ignored the cabbage, and immediately fled.

A few seconds later, the golden-haired bamboo fox emerged from where the boy had just been, cursing and swearing: "Pah! What kind of background do you have, daring to run wild in Xizhu Hill? What a disgusting fox smell!"

Hearing the familiar voice, a mournful cry came from the bushes: "Waaah—"

"Um!?"

The golden-haired bamboo rat crawled closer and was shocked: "How did you get beaten up like this, little guy?!"
