Chapter 104 The Prophets' Common Flaws (15)

When Li Boyang and Xi Luo returned to Feilai Peak, the first thing they saw was the destroyed bamboo forest.

Instinctively, he pulled out the Destiny Bone Armor and threw it.

The anxiety on Li Boyang's face quickly faded, replaced by a helplessness that he could not hide no matter what.

"Have you figured out who did it?"

Noticing the expression on Li Boyang's face, Xi Luo asked in a slightly teasing tone.

From the time Li Boyang was born until now, there have been very few people who could elicit such a helpless expression from him.

Anyone with a brain knows who can freely enter and leave that bamboo forest.

"You already guessed it, so why did you ask me on purpose?"

Li Boyang rolled his eyes at Xi Luo, finding her quirky sense of humor—asking questions she already knew the answer to—quite annoying at times.

"Although this matter is related to the eldest daughter, it really wasn't something she did on purpose."

“My sleepyheads are already familiar with her scent and won’t stop her from entering the bamboo forest.”

"Who would have thought that guy would actually be kidnapped and forced into the bamboo forest this time..."

Hearing Li Boyang say this, Xi Luo was truly surprised.

"That audacious girl actually got kidnapped one day? You must have miscalculated."

"Let alone our Flying Peak..."

"Ask the mountain spirits and monsters of the Hundred Mountains, which one of them has the audacity to kidnap her?"

Xi Luo's statement is not an exaggeration at all.

Even setting aside Xi Luo and Bo Yang, who are his backers.

Li Jingshu's strength is also unmatched by ordinary spirits.

Especially that "protective aura," which would give ordinary mountain gods and river gods a headache.

In a sense, Li Jingshu today is a flawed version of a divine being, her vital energy even more abundant than that of ordinary spirits and monsters.

The only thing Li Jingshu lacks compared to the innate divine beings is that she has no supernatural powers.

Of course, this is on the premise that we exclude the overpowered ability of "protective qi".

After all, you should regard "protective qi" as a supernatural power, but it can indeed be obtained through cultivation.

But you're going to treat it like a regular spell?

"Protective Qi" also has very distinct personal characteristics, being a derivative of innate life energy.

The line between supernatural powers and magic seems to be blurred in the case of "protective qi".

"So the one who kidnapped the eldest girl this time was an outsider."

Li Boyang confidently tossed out the Heavenly Fate Bone Armor from his hand once more.

"Besides that fox, other outsiders have also entered these Hundred Mountains..."

A sense of foreboding arose inexplicably in Xi Luo's heart. She did not believe that the appearance of two outsiders in succession was merely a coincidence.

"What else did you figure out?"

Li Boyang shrugged slightly and didn't say anything more. Instead, he rode the cloud to the backyard of the mountain god temple.

"Hey, wait for me, are all you prophets this mysterious?"

"I was the one who initially gave you the 'Nine Chapters of Divination Secrets,' so can you please stop ignoring my opinion?"

……………………………………………………………………………………………………

He followed closely behind Li Boyang.

When Xi Luo landed in the backyard, she did not see Li Jingshu.

Instead, it was the E'tu that should have been guarding the swamp behind the mountain.

He was standing in front of Li Boyang with a restrained expression, as if he was trying to say something.

Right next to the two men, a burly man clad in animal skins was lying on a makeshift wooden bed.

"Is this the outsider?"

Looking at Xiao Yue's broken bones but no visible wounds, Xi Luo's eyes widened in disbelief.

To be honest, in all her years of life, this is the first time Xi Luo has ever seen such a bizarre injury.

If it weren't for the occasional pained expressions that Xiao Yue revealed while he was unconscious, Xi Luo would have wondered if he was born with this kind of spineless appearance.

"Grandma Mountain God, he is the intruder."

Taking over Xi Luo's words, E Tu turned his head and replied.

"Where's the eldest girl? I haven't seen her at the temple."

Looking around but not finding any trace of Li Jingshu, Xi Luo asked curiously.

"Could it be that it's scared and hiding?"

Upon hearing this, E'tu quickly spoke up to explain for Li Jingshu.

"No, she went back to the village to let them know she was safe."

“This outsider abducted her from the village, so she has to hurry back to the village to reassure everyone.”

On this point, Li Jingshu clearly knew the importance of things.

Almost as soon as she was certain that Xiao Yue was no longer a threat, she turned and left Feilai Peak, returning to the village by the same route.

"I think she knew she was in trouble and was just making an excuse to avoid her little brother!"

Faced with Xi Luo's complaints, E Tu just gave an awkward laugh.

From his perspective, he also felt that Li Jingshu was deliberately avoiding Li Boyang and Xi Luo.

To be honest, if I hadn't had no other way to avoid it, E'tu would have run away long ago.

"Forget it, you should go back to the swamp behind the mountain first!"

"The female barbarians are about to revive, and you must personally oversee this."

"As for that bamboo grove?"

"I'll handle it myself later, so you don't need to worry about it for now."

After receiving Li Boyang's approval, E'tu was immediately granted a pardon.

"No problem, I'll be right there!"

Before leaving, E'tu took one last look at Xiaoyue, then headed towards the swamp behind the mountain without looking back.

Just as Li Boyang said, three years have passed since the female barbarian's soul was buried in that swamp, and recently there have been signs of her awakening.

If it weren't for the commotion caused by Xiao Yue...

E'tu would absolutely not leave that swamp at this crucial moment.

"Did you deliberately send him away?"

Only after E'tu's figure disappeared from their sight did Xi Luo turn her head and ask in a low voice.

How can you say that?

"I just feel that the less he knows about certain things, the better."

"After all, you wouldn't want too many people to know about the 'Huaijiang Witch,' would you?"

Upon hearing this, Xi Luo suddenly looked up.

"Are these two outsiders here because of my sister?"

A hint of undisguised murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

When Xi Luo looked at Xiao Yue again, she no longer regarded him as a living being.

For Xi Luo, who has lived for nearly a thousand years, there are very few things in this world that she cannot let go of.

Everything related to the Huaijiang witch is a taboo subject that Xiluo makes no attempt to conceal.

"Don't be impulsive, his arrival may not necessarily be a bad thing."

Li Boyang stopped Xi Luo from striking, and then continued speaking in a leisurely tone.

"Are you right?"

"The Grand Minister of Justice of the Great Xia Dynasty is pretending to be asleep?"

"If you still intend to continue pretending, I think letting you 'sleep forever' is not a bad option."

"At least, I can explain things to the village."
