"You're back? But there's no external aura..."

When Di Long saw that Lu Yu had returned empty-handed, its eyes immediately became sharp. However, as soon as it sensed the familiar aura outside, its own aura dissipated.

Its aura gathered and dispersed, which startled Lu Yu.

It was truly powerful. If it really wanted to attack, it could probably shake him to death with just its aura.

"Why did you bring it here?"

Di Long said with a hint of grievance, lowering its head as if it was embarrassed to look up.

"I brought the Flame Grass to show you. Shall we go out and take a look together?"

Lu Yu looked at its embarrassed appearance and couldn't help but smile.

This Di Long seemed quite formidable, but who would have thought it was also a shy creature.

"I'm not going. It's too embarrassing!"

"Embarrassing? I came all this way to see you, and you think it's embarrassing?"

Just as Lu Yu was racking his brains to figure out how to get Di Long to go out and greet the Earth-Shaking Demon Ape, a violent sound suddenly came from outside.

Immediately after, the Earth-Shaking Demon Ape charged into the valley with large strides.

Its massive body stepped on the scattered boulders, instantly reducing them to rubble, while Lu Yu and the others had to avoid them.

"Oh my..."

Ling Tianxin and the others were stunned.

What kind of day was today? They actually provoked two Nascent Soul realm spirit beasts.

Each one stronger than the other... Is this the true nature of this trial space?

While they were shocked, Di Long also stood up from the ground with a surprised expression.

"Xiao Gang, you're here!"

"Hmph, Xiao Hong, if I didn't come in, would you not want to see me?"

"Pfft..."

Di Long and the Earth-Shaking Demon Ape reminisced, while Lu Yu and the others burst into laughter at the names of the two big guys.

Xiao Hong and Xiao Gang... If their genders were reversed, it would be acceptable, but the key is that the Earth-Shaking Demon Ape is female, while Di Long is male!

They completely got it backwards.

Unfortunately, they were just spirit beasts and didn't have any talent for naming. Having a name is already quite impressive for them.

"I got injured."

Di Long Xiao Hong said with a pitifully lowered head.

"Is it from the last fight with that bald-tailed chicken?"

At this moment, the previously fierce Earth-Shaking Demon Ape Xiao Gang had lost its aggression and turned into a gentle and virtuous wife in front of Xiao Hong.

"Yes, it's quite serious."

"Let me take a look..."

"No, it's inconvenient."

"Quickly let me see. Are you pretending to be unwell?"

Just as it had turned gentle for a few sentences, the Earth-Shaking Demon Ape let out a loud roar and reverted to its original self.

Then, Xiao Hong reluctantly raised its head and took a step back...

The scene was too awkward, so Lu Yu quickly pulled Ling Tianxin and the others aside.

Who knows if this Di Long, who witnessed such an embarrassing situation, would kill them to keep it a secret?

"Well, it's indeed quite serious. You've been taking care of this Flame Grass, and you let someone else take it. Do you not consider me as one of your own? Quickly let me into the house, and I'll apply medicine for you."

"Oh..."

Xiao Hong lowered her head and obediently got up, walking towards the valley.

The earthquake demon ape, Xiao Gang, followed behind and entered the valley together.

After walking a short distance, Xiao Gang turned back to glance at Lu Yu.

"Wait here for a moment, help me with something later."

After saying that, it turned around and followed Xiao Hong into the cave.

Lu Yu had no idea what the couple did inside the cave, but he knew that there had been an earthquake in the valley for half a day, making it uncomfortable for them to stay.

Bai Ling'er, who had a lower cultivation level, and Wei Xiao Xian, almost suffered internal injuries from the shaking.

Half a day later, Xiao Hong and Xiao Gang finally walked out of the cave together.

However, no matter how Lu Yu looked at it, Xiao Gang seemed to be in a good state, while Xiao Hong was hunched over as if she had been tortured.

What exactly happened just now?

"Alright, you've helped us, so consider yourselves our friends. Is there any chance you can help us with something else?"

Xiao Gang pulled Xiao Hong and approached Lu Yu, then sat on the ground without any hesitation.

Xiao Hong sat half a step behind him, feeling wronged.

No matter how you looked at it, it seemed like a domineering wife situation.

"Hello, Gang Jie. What do you need our help with?"

Lu Yu scratched his head and asked with a brave face.

"Just you, the little guy, knows how to talk. Haha, from now on, call me Gang Jie, that's right! He is your Hong Ge, and we are all family now."

Xiao Gang happily patted Lu Yu's shoulder twice to express his mood.

Poor Lu Yu, he was just a small character at the Gold Core stage. Faced with Xiao Gang's huge palm, he couldn't dodge it and could only endure it.

Fortunately, Xiao Gang didn't mean to hurt him, otherwise he would probably be flattened.

"You saw it too, Hong Ge was seriously injured. Otherwise, he wouldn't have eaten the Flame Flower at this time. Do you know how he got injured?"

Lu Yu shook his head.

In the world of the Nascent Soul stage, they didn't understand.

"It's all because of that damn bald-tailed chicken! Let me tell you..."

Xiao Gang chattered on and finally explained the situation.

It turned out that in this trial space, the spirit beasts at the Nascent Soul stage each had their own territory. Xiao Hong's territory was adjacent to Xiao Gang's, and their relationship... was quite ambiguous.

But it wasn't just Xiao Hong who pursued Xiao Gang. In the northern part of their territories, there was a Fire Feather Bird that also took a liking to Xiao Gang.

So Xiao Hong and the Fire Feather Bird became mortal enemies, occasionally fighting each other.

Because their strengths were not much different, both sides had their victories and losses.

However, a few months ago, that Fire Feather Bird suddenly gained a tremendous increase in strength, thanks to some precious treasures. Then Xiao Hong tragically ended up being pinned down and seriously injured.

If it weren't for Xiao Hong's temper, would Lu Yu and the others dare to enter the valley and set up a formation? It would have flown into a rage immediately.

After listening to Xiao Gang's words, Lu Yu secretly wiped away a sweat.

This trial space was indeed extremely dangerous. If one wasn't careful, their life could be lost.

Being at the Gold Core stage in this space really didn't count for much.

Fortunately, his luck was not bad, otherwise, whether he could still stand here now would be another matter.

"So, are you going to seek revenge next?"

"Yes, we're going to seek revenge! But that bald-tailed chicken is too cunning. Once it senses danger, it flies up into the sky, and we can't do anything about it. You're all smart, help us think of a solution."

With a wave of Xiao Gang's hand, this matter fell onto Lu Yu and the others.

Lu Yu truly felt like crying but had no tears.

He was just a small cultivator at the Gold Core stage, how did he suddenly get involved in the battles of the Nascent Soul stage powerhouses? Isn't this seeking death on his own?
