These fairies want me to deal with them every day.

"Look at how wary you are, what trust is left between us?"

Why do you want this?

Wei Tu did not deny it, "It was someone else who wanted it, I just wanted to help take it back."

Bai Youwei frowned deeply, "Sunflower is very yang in nature, and is mostly used for women..."

"Don't worry about that, I'll definitely take it back for you. But what do you need it for?"

Bai Youwei looked at Wei Tu, "For my cultivation technique... I need such a precious material that can replenish Yang energy."

Wei Tu pondered for a moment and concluded that the other party was most likely deceiving him.

Based on his past life experience, Su Mi had never needed such a thing, and he had never even heard her mention the words "Sunflame Grass," so it was definitely not a drawback of the Snow Peak technique.

But he didn't expose it.

"Is that so? There's no need to rush. Maybe we'll find more than one. We can just share it equally."

Bai Youwei took a deep breath.

"The sun-scorching grass is highly resistant and grows alone... In places where it can thrive, there is usually only one plant within a radius of several miles..."

Wei Tu smiled and looked at Bai Youwei.

"So now it's time to go our separate ways and rely on our own abilities? I'll go with you. I never asked for cooperation from the beginning. If you're scared now, I respect your choice."

Seeing the boy's disliked expression, Bai Youwei told herself to stay calm and not be deceived by appearances.

Moreover, his purpose... was not just that.

"Let's go, don't waste time on this pointless thing."

Seeing Bai Youwei's hesitation, Wei Tu said this and then turned and disappeared into the dense forest in front of him.

Within an hour, the two had already traversed the outermost mountain.

"The demonic aura is getting stronger..."

Bai Youwei sniffed and said softly.

Wei Tu glanced at her and asked, "Are you a dog?"

"Can't you smell such a strong demonic aura?"

"I can smell it."

"Then why did you say that?!"

"Only dogs will report every scent they smell to their owners."

"Wei Tu, you!"

"We should be getting closer to the depths now; there's not even a decent road left... Be careful."

Bai Youwei snorted coldly, "Of course I know."

The two continued walking forward. The sky was still dark, but there seemed to be no light at all, which seemed rather unusual.

Wei Tu raised his head. His body, strengthened by the blood essence of the evil dragon, was indeed more sensitive to demonic energy. However, here, it seemed impossible to accurately detect any particular individual. When he looked up, he saw that the entire dark sky seemed to be filled with demonic energy.

This must be the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain... The soaring demonic energy has almost completely surrounded this place.

I wonder just how powerful the monsters here are...

Sunfire Grass generally grows in the south, so the two of them headed south, encountering some strangely shaped plants and herbs along the way.

For example, at this moment, Bai Youwei actually saw something emitting a faint light next to a fallen dead tree.

The girl cautiously approached, crouched down, and saw that it was a spherical, mushroom-like thing emitting a strange, faint reddish glow in the soil.

Bai Youwei was pondering what this thing was when

"call out!"

Suddenly, a red mushroom shot out from the ground towards her face.

Bai Youwei instantly drew her sword.

"puff!"

A viscous liquid spilled onto the ground. Bai Youwei frowned and saw the true form of the 'red mushroom': it was a spider with a brightly colored tail that could even glow... However, its size was acceptable, about the size of a mushroom, and it was actually trying to ambush her...

How could one not be basically wary of such things in a place like this?

As Bai Youwei slowly sheathed her sword...

"hiss……"

She thought she heard a sound.

The surroundings were clearly quiet, yet there was this sound, as if someone was breathing softly in the wind.

In the dim light, nothing could be seen beyond, and it felt as if only a sinister atmosphere enveloped me.

Bai Youwei slowly raised her head, looking in the direction from which the sound was most likely to come.

Then she saw...

eye.

Densely packed...

A pair of bloodshot eyes!

Right above their heads, around these towering trees that almost blot out the sky, pairs of eyes were lurking!

These eyes weren't scattered, but rather piled together...

And as these eyes slowly moved, revealing more figures in the moonlight.

Bai Youwei couldn't help but feel a chill run down her spine, because those were giant spiders coiled around the big tree!

"What's this……"

Bai Youwei's voice trembled slightly.

Although she had been trained since childhood not to be afraid of these things, she was still a woman, and there were so many of them all at once... It was as if she had stumbled into the nest of these giant spiders. How could she not be terrified?

The boy beside her, whom she seemed to have deliberately ignored until now, whispered.

"Red-eyed spiders like to hunt prey in groups. Whatever they hunt, they are almost always torn apart."

"……what to do."

Bai Youwei took a deep breath.

"Nothing to do, let's go."

Wei Tu took a step forward, his body slightly lowered, and Bai Youwei followed the boy's steps, moving forward step by step.

But it's neither dead nor alive...

"Crack..."

Bai Youwei stepped on a dead branch and broke it.

The girl's figure stiffened for a moment, and Wei Tu looked over.

"Damn it..."

"I……"

"Come on!"

Wei Tu grabbed Bai Youwei's hand and ran forward wildly, not caring whether there was any sound.

The red-eyed spiders that had been motionless on the tree suddenly sprang to life and moved toward the sound with extraordinary speed.

"Sizzle...!"

Suddenly, a vast spider web descended from the sky.

Without pausing, Wei Tu immediately unleashed a sword strike.

The spider web shattered into countless fragments.

"let go!"

Suddenly a voice came from behind. Wei Tu immediately let go of her hand and saw Bai Youwei turn around abruptly and slash down with her sword.

The sword light briefly illuminated the darkness.

"Waaaaah!!"

The red-eyed spider, split in two by a single sword strike, emitted a chilling hiss.

Keep running, don't stop!

Wei Tu and Bai Youwei ran and jumped through the intricate mountain forest without stopping.

They kept slicing through the spider webs and cutting down the red-eyed spiders that tried to pounce on them.

There were just too many of them, and they came from all directions and from who knows where. If we stayed here for too long, who knows what other monsters might be attracted.

Therefore, the best option is to leave this place of trouble as soon as possible.

"Do not touch these webs, as they contain a deadly poison that can paralyze people. Also, do not touch your sword, as the mucus inside these spiders is poisonous."

While rushing forward, Wei Tu didn't forget to educate the girl beside him about science.

Bai Youwei was somewhat puzzled.

"How do you know all this?"

"I read in a book that knowledge is power, do you understand now?"

"I understand. I'll spend some time in the library when I get back."

"Let's not talk about this now, let's talk about it when we get back."

"You're the one who jinxed things! Why can't we go back... Ah!"

"bass!"

As Wei Tu ran, he suddenly saw Bai Youwei, who was standing a little in front of him, disappear in an instant.

All that remained was her scream.
