These fairies want me to deal with them every day.

"Junior Sister Bai, you..."

Bai Youwei also turned around and followed the winding path.

A few people were left feeling resentful and frustrated, yet powerless to do anything about it.

They had never been to such a place before, so they naturally felt it was full of unknowns. In terms of strength, Gong Ziqi, Wei Tu, and Bai Youwei were definitely the most reliable backers, but two of them were not planning to take them along.

How can anyone stand this!

Wei Tu had no intention of playing with anyone from the start. Teamwork depends on the team members, and randomly matched teammates offer no sense of security. They are more likely to be a burden than a teammate. Therefore, Wei Tu had no intention of working with them, and his goal was not to be on the periphery.

Wei Tu took a few steps and immediately noticed a figure following him.

When Wei Tu turned around, she saw Bai Youwei, who had previously seemed to have a low profile and had been silent all along.

The boy had a headache.

"Why is Senior Sister Bai here?"

Bai Youwei walked over and glanced at the boy's features.

You seem unhappy.

Wei Tu immediately flashed a bright smile.

"What are you talking about? I'm overjoyed to have such a beautiful woman like Senior Sister Bai by my side."

"Really? Junior Brother Wei, are you really that happy?"

Then Gong Ziqi's sturdy figure emerged from a patch of weeds.

Wei Tu's lips twitched slightly.

"I am indeed a little unhappy right now."

...PS: I doubt anyone's waiting for an update today, so I'll sneak in a chapter, hehe~ Off to celebrate Qixi Festival!

60 The Last Spark

"Hey, Junior Brother Wei, what do you think? With so many of us here, what if we run into teams from other coordinates?"

"Probably not. The Ten Thousand Demon Mountain is very large, and the three coordinates are quite far apart. So there probably wasn't a chance to run into them in the past few days."

"Oh... then how about going in?"

"If we go any further in, we'll reach the depths of the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains. Senior Brother Gong, would you like to go?"

"Uh...of course I don't want to, I don't have that ability. But Junior Brother Wei, how do you tell which place is the outer area or the inner area? Are there any signposts?"

Gong Ziqi asked curiously, as the three of them were already walking on the road leading to the nearest mountain.

The path gradually widened, and there were signs of human habitation around, though they looked quite old.

Bai Youwei appeared to be walking calmly, and deliberately kept a considerable distance between herself and Wei Tu.

But in reality, they didn't miss a single word of their conversation.

She only heard the boy in the middle laugh and say, "Of course there won't be any road signs. Even if there were, they would likely be used by some intelligent monsters. There will be obvious differences between the depths and the outer areas, such as the density of the demonic energy and the rarity of some items to be collected. The most obvious thing is that when the soil under your feet turns red, that means you are close to the depths. If it is blood red... then it means you have entered the very center."

"Huh? What if I accidentally take the wrong road while traveling at night and end up in the center?"

Gong Ziqi seemed to have a lot on his mind.

Wei Tu patted Gong Ziqi's shoulder reassuringly and said with a smile.

"It doesn't matter when that time comes."

"Is there really a way to do this?"

"Of course, just remember to keep the sect's name tag in your mouth."

"why is that?"

"If there is a chance in the future, I hope I can still identify whose body this is."

"..."

"Pfft..."

Bai Youwei couldn't help but laugh.

Then, noticing the gazes of Gong Ziqi and Wei Tu looking at her simultaneously, the girl immediately turned her head away, completely erasing her previous heartwarming smile.

It was as if the snow on the mountain had melted.

They soon arrived at their destination. In the dense forest, the three of them began to move within their own line of sight, which made Wei Tu feel somewhat uncomfortable.

He didn't want to venture deeper into the area under Gong Ziqi's watchful eye, because given Gong Ziqi's personality, he would definitely take it seriously and might report it to Liang Xingsu, then directly interfere with his actions.

If danger arises, it will implicate more people. Although Wei Tu is not obligated to take responsibility for other people's actions, he does not want to become a trigger.

After all, all of this will be especially important in subsequent actions.

Thus, Wei Tu was just like those workers who dawdle at their jobs, spending the most time doing the least amount of work.

They didn't put anything into the Qiankun bag, as if they were afraid that anything heavy would disturb his rest.

"Is it very urgent?"

Following the direction, Wei Tu bumped into Bai Youwei again. He really just intended to scout out a spot, but this woman seemed to have her eye on him, and always managed to find any opportunity to provoke him.

Even now, they actively look at themselves and say such things.

Wei Tu appeared calm on the surface, but inwardly he wished he could tie this troublesome woman to a tree.

"What's the rush?"

Bai Youwei looked at the boy with ease, "It will be very difficult for you to shake us off under these circumstances."

Wei Tu sighed.

"Senior Sister Bai."

"Ok?"

"We have no future."

"What did you say……"

Bai Youwei frowned.

Wei Tu sighed, "I know I'm very outstanding, and most women can't resist my charm, but I can't possibly agree to your request if you keep pestering me like this. You can't force a relationship."

"Are you...are you crazy! Who's bothering you?"

"Aren't you just pestering me?"

Wei Tu retorted sharply.

Feeling deeply ashamed and annoyed, the girl took a deep breath and gave a cold laugh.

"I know you're trying to provoke me, but it won't work. To some extent, we have the same goal."

"I'm sorry, Senior Sister Bai, I have no idea what you're talking about."

Wei Tu, of course, had to maintain his stubbornness to the end. He didn't want any unexpected factors to get involved in this matter, especially not women.

Wei Tu turned and left, and Bai Youwei watched his retreating figure and said.

“You’re not willing to cooperate now, but you will definitely cooperate with me.”

Wei Tu did not turn back. That evening, the three of them gathered around the fire, and Gong Ziqi excitedly talked about his harvest.

At this moment, Wei Tu said with a troubled expression, "Senior Brother Gong, I think we should part ways tomorrow?"

"We're breaking up again? Why?"

Gong Ziqi asked, seemingly quite puzzled.

Wei Tu opened his empty Qiankun bag.

“Look, with the three of us together… I can’t find anything at all, so in order to avoid embarrassing ourselves in this trial, it’s better if we split up.”

Gong Ziqi said with some difficulty.

“But in that case… I’m worried about your safety, Junior Brother Wei… Besides, we’ve already been separated from the other disciples, and without anyone to contact us, I’m worried…”

Just as Wei Tu was thinking about how to persuade Gong Ziqi, the aloof girl looking at the fire suddenly spoke up.

"How about this, Senior Brother Gong, I'll go with Wei Tu. That way, he'll have less pressure, and you won't have to worry about losing contact."

"you……"

Wei Tu frowned as he looked at Bai Youwei. Why was this woman like a leech? He just couldn't shake her off.

Gong Ziqi immediately smiled and said, "That's fine... but you must be careful and not wander off. You must meet here in six days, okay?"

At this point, Wei Tu had no choice but to nod reluctantly.

Gong Ziqi also breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing Wei Tu's forced smile, Bai Youwei felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction.

Leaning close to the boy, she whispered, "See, I told you you would cooperate with me."

"Is this interesting, Bai Youwei?"

They didn't even bother with formalities, just calling her by her first name. Bai Youwei didn't care about that and just sneered.

"I think it's quite interesting. Since we've met by such a coincidence, we won't miss this opportunity."

Wei Tu wouldn't hastily assume this was her way of expressing her love for him; he would only think that this woman... was a little scary.

In my past life, I had no interaction with Bai Youwei... I suppose this is probably a chain reaction caused by my current behavior, which is different from my past life.

Soon, the three of them rested by the fire.

until late at night.

Wei Tu packed his things and stood up without making a sound. He glanced at Gong Ziqi, who seemed to be sleeping soundly, and then quietly left the fire alone.

"Where are you going?"

Bai Youwei opened her eyes.
