Oh wait, Qing wouldn't tell me about you and me, would she?

"I," "you," "you all," and "Qingcai" are probably the pronouns she uses most often.

However... it has to be said that Qing sometimes really gives off the feeling of a yandere, which makes Leng Yihan feel a chill down her spine.

"Alright... hurry up and get up and eat."

334 The Cave of the Gods (3)

Isn't it a bit too bland?

Leng Yihan ate the fruit that Qing had picked from somewhere, lost in thought.

He wasn't complaining about the bland taste of the breakfast, but rather he felt something was off—why was it so quiet the whole way? Apart from the first magical beast, Leng Yihan hadn't seen a second one.

This is really strange. Logically speaking, since the big monsters that are usually active for long periods of time are now sleeping and resting, shouldn't the little monsters be more active? After all, they don't need to worry about provoking any big monsters anymore.

In reality, it was a magical beast. Even Qing Fei, after checking, said that there wasn't a single magical beast within a hundred miles.

For some reason, Leng Yihan suddenly had a bad feeling.

Could it be... that they're actually in the territory of some powerful magical beast? That's why no other small magical beasts have come here to run wild.

But if that's really the case... Leng Yihan and her group cut down trees to build two small tents, made a fire in the forest, and picked fruit at will.

I'm afraid I'll be killed by that giant monster... But it should be fine, that monster is probably in seclusion... If that's really the case...

But if that's really the case, that would be wonderful, since you wouldn't have to worry about encountering any monsters or getting hurt along the way.

Leng Binglan and Leng Zhenmo were still asleep, and Leng Yihan did not wake them up, or rather... she couldn't bear to wake them up.

For some reason, looking at Leng Binglan and Leng Zhenmo's tired faces, Leng Yihan couldn't bring herself to wake them up, so she decided to let them sleep a little longer.

After Leng Yihan finished the unknown fruit in her hand, she felt a warm current flowing through her abdomen, a very comfortable feeling.

"What is this...?"

“This is a spirit fruit,” Qing said.

"A spirit fruit..."

"Spiritual fruit for breakfast, huh? How luxurious." Lu Youmei said. "Of course, it's only a luxury for you now that you don't have many resources. For me in the past, it was an indispensable dessert after meals." Lu Youmei said in a slightly smug voice.

"Tsk... I know you're amazing, okay... I'm so envious." Leng Yihan was a little puzzled; Lu Youmei was truly lucky...

"You know, back when I, Lu Youmei, was still Lu Youmei, I was the Holy Maiden of a certain sect, a top genius. But later I ran away for someone." As Lu Youmei spoke, she didn't show any regret. Instead, she smiled happily.

"I probably will never forget that idiot who suddenly appeared in my room in the middle of the night, reached out his hand to me, and said something like, 'Come with me, I will take you away from here and let you see a bigger world.'"

"Hmm... Si Chuming?"

"Aren't you just stating the obvious? Who else could it be but him..."

“I was wondering if it could be another man…” Leng Yihan quickly shut her mouth as soon as she finished speaking, but it was too late.

Lu Youmei's happy smile twitched slightly before fading away.

"Do you believe I can let you experience what it feels like to be separated from the dead forever?"

"I'm sorry, sister, I was wrong!"

And so, Leng Yihan bowed her head and begged for mercy from Lu Youmei.

After an hour or two, Leng Zhenmo and Leng Binglan woke up. The four of them then began to prepare to leave the place. After having some breakfast, the two of them continued to move forward in the direction they had gone the night before.

"Speaking of which... Brother, you said we haven't encountered any magical beasts along the way. Is it because this is the territory of some kind of powerful magical beast, so no other magical beasts dare to set foot here?" Leng Binglan asked in confusion.

"Hey... don't say such terrible things... otherwise, what if that monster comes looking for us if it's true?" A bead of cold sweat trickled down Leng Yihan's forehead.

"Haha, how could something like that happen to us? You agree, right, Leng Zhenmo?" Leng Binglan laughed awkwardly and looked at Leng Zhenmo, hoping she could help her out of the predicament.

But...

"Leng Binglan, are you a jinx?" Leng Zhenmo looked straight ahead with a serious expression. After seeing Leng Zhenmo's reaction and hearing her words, Leng Binglan stiffly turned her head to look at the magical beast in the distance.

The other party did not restrain their hostility towards the four of them, and what was even more fatal was that they did not hide their aura at all.

A magical beast that looks like a lizard, its rank...

Thirteenth level.

For Leng Binglan, killing someone of this rank would be as simple as snapping her fingers.

But for her now...

difficult!

"A four-tier difference..."

"Luckily, we're all in this together, so we're not afraid," Leng Yihan said calmly.

"Get ready to fight, I'll take the hits."

As Qing spoke, he waved his hand, and many branches flew out from the surrounding trees, trying to entangle the lizard-like thing.

“Troublesome…” Qing said, and the four of them scattered instantly. Leng Yihan immediately hid at the back, waved her hand and ice spikes appeared, and she began to stack magic.

On the battlefield where they were locked in a direct confrontation, Qing jumped back to dodge an attack from what was essentially a giant lizard. A bamboo strip flew out from his sleeve and instantly entangled the lizard.

"Die!" Qing Nian shouted, as Leng Zhenmo and Leng Binglan emerged from the flanks, their swords, though similar, were used in completely different ways to slash at the lizard.

"Roar!!!" The lizard roared, and the bamboo strip that Qing had wrapped around the lizard snapped instantly, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Leng Binglan and Leng Zhenmo were instantly forced back by this roar, unable to get close again.

"Make way!" Leng Yihan said, and three ice spikes flew out instantly, piercing the lizard's body.

"Bang!" The ice spikes exploded instantly, but something heartbreaking happened to Leng Yihan.

As the icy mist dissipated, the lizard's unharmed appearance appeared before Leng Yihan.

"What the hell!" Leng Yihan was shocked. Her three ice spikes hadn't even hurt this guy?! Really?!

"Trouble!" Cold Blue appeared behind the lizard once again. The lizard hurriedly tried to slip away. Although it was not injured, it realized that these people were not simple. If it stayed here for too long, it might end up dying here.

The lizard turned around and ran several meters away in the blink of an eye.

Even so, its tail was still cut off by Leng Binglan's sword.

At the same time, Leng Zhenmo appeared in front of the lizard, condensing frost power on his sword and slashing at the lizard.

The lizard was quick to flee; it was clever and realized it couldn't win. However, its cleverness backfired, and its hasty departure led to its current predicament.

Ultimately, this guy's judgment is too weak; he simply doesn't know when to retreat and when to fight.

How could someone like that be a 13th-rank character?

"Gentlemen...why don't we stop and discuss this further?"

335 The Cave of the Gods (4)

Suddenly a voice entered everyone's ears.

Leng Zhenmo, who was about to continue attacking the 'lizard', paused, as if frozen in place. Qing and Leng Binglan, who were about to give chase, also stopped abruptly.

The 'lizard' bypassed Leng Zhenmo without even glancing at him, and ran straight towards the bushes behind Leng Zhenmo.

Soon, a person emerged from the bushes.

It was a man, but how should I put it...

It gives people a... super ordinary feeling.

It's probably the kind of person who, even if Leng Yihan and the others look at him carefully and try to remember his appearance, they will forget his appearance the next moment.

It might be possible if they were just ordinary people, but now they are people who have cultivated, and their memory is exceptionally good. Even so, Leng Yihan still felt as if she would forget what he looked like if she turned her head away for a few seconds.

"This guy is not simple... He seems to be a big problem." After taking a few glances, Lu Youmei said to Leng Yihan. Even she couldn't see through the cultivation level of the person in front of her... In that case, they had to be more cautious.

"Alright... Little lizard, don't be afraid. You're safe now. Let's go." The ordinary-looking man bent down and patted the head of the 13th-level lizard-like creature before speaking.

“That guy… is a 13th-tier magical beast, right?” Leng Binglan’s lips twitched. “He was actually called ‘little lizard’…”

"Speaking of which... the little lizard was so cute, why did you kill it?" The ordinary-looking man said as he stood up, looking at them with a sinister gaze.

"Well... we had no choice. This monster attacked us first, and we were just defending ourselves," Leng Yihan said after thinking for a moment.

"Can't we solve the problem with words?"

“Um…we don’t have that kind of strength…” Leng Yihan’s lips twitched. He absolutely did not believe that the guy in front of him was human, otherwise his strength should have been restricted to the ninth level…

But to be able to easily deal with a 13th-level magical beast with only 9th-level strength... that's just too overpowered...

Therefore, it absolutely cannot be human! Absolutely!

Leng Yihan made that judgment in her heart.

Indeed, among all those who entered the Cave of the Gods, none could command a 13th-tier magical beast with such obedience while their cultivation was suppressed.

However... if this magical beast has already been tamed by oneself, then it will be a different story.

“Twelfth rank…tenth rank…and two more I can’t see through…” The ordinary-looking man glanced at the four girls. “Such powerful female cultivators…which sect could possibly cultivate such talents…oh well, as long as I can intimidate them, I’ll have them pave the way for my future…”

"This... senior, are you traveling alone?" Leng Yihan asked cautiously. She couldn't see through the cultivation level of the person in front of her, and Leng Binglan and Lu Youmei seemed to be the same.

At this moment, everyone subconsciously regarded the ordinary man in front of them as a senior who had been living in the Cave of Gods, and therefore dared not be too presumptuous.

"Um... I... cough cough, I have some business to attend to at the Cave of the Gods. It's fate that I've met you here on the outskirts of the Cave of the Gods. Would you be willing to travel with me? Of course, I won't be helping you out. At most, I'll lend a hand if you encounter any major troubles." The ordinary-looking man said.

"Oh?" Leng Yihan frowned. The timing of this guy's appearance was a bit strange... but even Little Demon was immobilized by him... You know, even if Little Demon is currently at the ninth level, it's impossible for him to be immobilized by something without any ability to resist...

Could this fellow really be some kind of reclusive master? Perhaps he sees a connection between us and wants to invite us?

I feel there are many suspicious points...

"Oh no... Could this guy have discovered something... Please don't find out... I spent a level 13 immobilization talisman to match my current show-off act! If he finds out, I'll have lost a lot!"

The ordinary-looking man broke out in a cold sweat as he watched Leng Yihan deep in thought and glancing at him from time to time.

Damn it... I finally found a group of people... I don't want to lose this opportunity! I have to successfully trick them!

The ordinary-looking man gritted his teeth and took out a pill from behind his back...

If all else fails, I'll lure a monster they can't handle, and then show them my 'strength'!
