After the protagonist retired, the heroine quit

Wait!

Xiao Yu clapped his hands, and he suddenly understood why the Taoist nun approached him on purpose.

she……

He must have taken a fancy to my sword-raising gourd.

Otherwise, why did he ask about the original owner of the gourd after inquiring about its origin? It was obvious that he was beating around the bush, considering whether he could withstand the revenge of the person behind the gourd after she snatched the gourd from him and ran away.

It seemed that he wanted to get the gourd just now because he wanted to drink, but in fact he wanted to use it to evaluate the value of the sword-raising gourd.

Otherwise, what is she trying to do if the wine in his gourd is not good?

Did he drink strong liquor that was already stained with saliva? Or was he thinking of an indirect kiss?

Neither...there is only one truth.

She came to steal the gourd.

Xiao Yu's worry was not without basis. Sword-raising gourds were rare and worth a fortune. It would be like adding wings to a tiger if a sword cultivator obtained one. Under the limitation of its innate formation, it was even more coveted.

As expected...wealth should not be shown to others. Before breaking through the Nascent Soul stage, it is better to refrain from showing the sword-raising gourd, even though the gourd itself is restricted.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yu tightly held the sword-raising gourd that Long Wanyan gave him and looked at the Taoist nun with a vigilant look.

In response, Long Wanyan smiled and gave a gentle look.

???

As expected... Ye Ba values ​​the gift I gave him so much, so what he said must be true.

Just when Xiao Yu was confused by Long Wanyan's special look.

There were several noises coming from the front, along with the loud noises of fighting, which caused the two of them to temporarily stop moving forward and hide in the ruins nearby. After listening carefully for a while, they heard:

"It really comes without any effort, the Xuanling Sect's leader's precious daughter Li Yunshang?

Humph... If I capture her, even if I don't gain anything from this secret realm, I will have an explanation to give to the sect when I return, and I can also avenge my hatred..."

Xiao Yu:!!!

Chapter 8, Dragon

Under the broken ruins, piles of burning ashes fell to the ground.

The flickering firelight highlighted the girl's disheveled face, her messy hair tangled with the sweat dripping from her forehead, sticking tightly to her dusty face.

The dress that was as bright as a flame was dimmed by the licking of the white flame, and the girl's delicate skin was revealed under the torn dress.

The sword blade, shortened into half, stabbed diagonally into the dark and sleepy soil. The man's palm was cracked, but he still held on to the hilt despite the heart-wrenching pain.

The sparse black and the sad white contrasted with each other, and the sword body flashing with cold light reflected a brown figure on the opposite side.

The red and white flames on his body merged and dispersed, revealing a brown mummy wearing tattered leather armor and holding a bronze spear in his hand.

The monster in the early Jindan realm looked much stronger than the previous mummies that could only rely on instinct to bite and pounce, and it still retained some physical instincts and martial arts.

But that was only relative. The raging flames almost swallowed up most of its body. The spear was waving, and although it was powerful and strong, compared with a living person, it was ultimately less flexible and more rigid.

When Li Yunshang tried to kill it for the second time, the spirit sword was pierced by the spear tip and broke into two pieces on the spot, unable to stand up again.

Facts have proved that although these monsters in the secret realm are weak, their unreasonable resurrection can drive people crazy.

It can fail multiple times, but you can only fail once.

Li Yunshang failed. After being besieged by so many monsters, it was not easy for her to barely hold on, not to mention that she had to drag her tired body to fight a small elite monster.

She was dying. More importantly, this monster was different from other mummies. The orange flame was mixed with a hint of dazzling snow.

White flames.

It was like a conspicuous black stain on the white sheets.

More importantly, being touched by this special flame will hurt the soul, causing the body to become out of control.

Looking at the monster slowly approaching in front of her, Li Yunshang gritted her teeth and finally let go of the hilt of the sword that supported her body.

Blood beads of varying sizes dripped down her broken knuckles. She reached into her arms but felt nothing.

She forgot that the skirt-pressing knife she kept close to her body had already been borrowed by Xiao Yu.

Despair suddenly surged into the girl's heart. Her last support disappeared and she lowered her head resignedly.

As expected...a princess is nothing without the protection of a knight. Without the knight who has always been guarding her, it is still a question whether she can even be considered a princess.

Senior Brother Yu...

Peng!

The sound of breaking through the air, like a desperate attempt to sink the boats, suddenly exploded in my ears.

A petite golden figure suddenly rushed over, swinging a huge axe and hacking at the gun-wielding monster fiercely.

The gun twisted and barely took the blow. The huge force made the monster retreat a few steps. The wind from the swinging giant axe even suppressed the flames burning on its body.

"Not bad! This thing looks much more resistant than those monsters on the road, hahahaha... I finally found something that can help me stretch my muscles. This secret realm is getting interesting."

With golden hair fluttering in the wind, a petite figure supported the falling giant axe with one hand, and an excited smile appeared on her soft and white face, as if she had seen her prey.

Two rows of saw-like fangs were exposed, enough to show the excitement of its owner.

“Come again… Come again! Ah-ho~”

The golden figure twisted her neck, let out a strange cry, then raised the giant axe that was as long as her whole body and swung it at the gun-wielding monster opposite.

Seeing this coming, the monster, whose whole body was on fire, adopted an ancient gun stance according to the instinctive memory deeply rooted in its body, and randomly provoked upwards, changing the attack of the swung giant axe with a little effort.

There was a bang.

The giant axe fell to the ground, and the ground shook a few times in a trance.

The force was so great that most of the axe blade was sunk into the soil on the ground.

"it is good!"

Seeing this, the golden figure was not annoyed at all. Instead, his eyes lit up because of the beautiful counterattack made by this monster that did not seem to have any intelligence.

She shouted and cheered, but without stopping, she supported herself with the axe handle that was deeply stuck in the ground and flipped over like a graceful high jumper. She slid in a beautiful arc and took advantage of the momentum to kick the monster hard in the chest.

Peng!

The monster fell to the ground, leaving a small footprint on its flat chest.

"Not bad, not bad. Using weapons is different from using bare hands. Huhu~ my feet..."

The golden figure stood on one leg, shook the foot that had just kicked someone, and then pulled out the giant axe that was stuck in the ground.

He stepped forward and swung his arm again to chop.

The monster fell to the ground. Although it was holding the spear in its hand, it had no space to use the force-relieving technique it had just used.

Ding!

A crisp sound...

The swung axe was bounced away, and the golden figure held the handle with both hands and took a small step back.

His eyes, condensed into needles due to excitement, fell on the bronze gun opposite.

At this moment, the flames on the monster spread to the gun, and from a distance it looked like a red-hot fire stick.

The gun body rotated, and once again took that special stance, and a sharp light flashed on the raised tip of the gun.

"Interesting... Really interesting. I really came to the right place to find this secret place. Fortunately, it's not guarded at the inn."

The golden figure curled his lips, dragged the giant axe and rushed forward again to fight.

One brown and one gold were fighting in a mess.

"Alas! Here we go again. Does this new elder really like to fight?! I really don't know why the deputy sect leader values ​​her so much..."

"It's a good thing, isn't it? At least we didn't have to fight much along the way. This is much easier than being in a sect."

"This is indeed..."

In the distance, three or two disciples of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect with animal ears on their heads walked slowly over, chatting as they strolled, looking extremely leisurely.

The giant axe fell and chopped off the monster's head cleanly.

The flames raged and intensified, but the body showed no signs of recovery.

Seeing this, the golden figure curled his lips in disappointment: "I thought we could fight for a while longer..."

After all, the golden figure with rich combat experience and full of energy is superior.

By the time several disciples of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect arrived here, the battle had already ended.

Several disciples came behind her and greeted her in unison:

"Hello, Elder Ulala!"

Because of his previous heroic deeds in the restaurant, these disciples had developed a favorable impression of the new elder.

"Oh...you guys are here."

Ulala turned around and saw that it was a disciple of her own sect. She didn't care and put the huge axe in her hand on her back. Then she turned around and walked towards the person she had just rescued to see if there was anyone else who could be saved.

However, after taking a few steps, he was stopped by a disciple behind him:

"No! Wait... Elder Wulala, that person is... is Li Yunshang?!"

The disciple seemed to recognize Li Yunshang's identity. He leaned over to take a closer look. After confirming that it was her, he immediately smiled and said:

"Yes, it's that difficult young lady from Xuanling Sect. It looks like she wasted some energy fighting those monsters just now. God help my Wanshou Sect!"

"Oh, is that so? Then... it's up to you guys to do with it!"

After hearing that the person she saved was Xuanling Sect's eldest daughter Li Yunshang, Ulala yawned without interest, stopped and walked aside.

"Thank you, Elder Wulala. Finally...finally, I have waited for this opportunity..."

The disciple who was speaking had a red face and jumped for joy, obviously very excited, and even shed tears.

The person walking by asked in confusion:

"Is it that serious? Isn't it just that they caught that Li Yunshang?"

"Of course!!! You don't know how hateful she is. Thinking of the beginning... I was ordered to guard the door for a few spirit stones. I was fine.

Who knew that I would be knocked unconscious by some bastard, stripped naked, and woke up in front of a crowd of people, and ran away holding my butt. That day was the shame of my life..."

The disciple clenched his fists, and in his wide eyes, the ridicule of his fellow disciples in the past seemed to be vividly remembered.

“Also, when I was chasing her, I was played around like a dog by that inner sect disciple Ye Feng. I finally got my clothes back, but all the spirit stones that I had saved up for months to buy my life tool were gone. Not a single one was left.

I will never forgive those who steal people’s money and damage their reputation. At that time, I swore that when I caught the couple, I would make them pay the price!!! A bloody price…”

After yelling hysterically, the disciple smiled grimly, with an expression that showed that he was going to get his revenge, and slowly approached Li Yunshang, shouting:

"Now I finally have the chance, it's really easy to get it, Xuanling Sect's leader's precious daughter Li Yunshang.

Humph... After I capture her, even if I don't gain anything from this secret realm, I will have an explanation to the sect when I return, and I can also avenge my hatred. As for that bastard Ye Feng, we'll see where a casual cultivator who was expelled from the sect can hide. I..."

But before he could finish his words, suddenly, a sharp sound of breaking wind, with unstoppable momentum, emerged from the ruins nearby and attacked him.

At the critical moment, Elder Ulala arrived and blocked the attack.

Under her golden hair, the corners of her mouth lifted up again, revealing an excited expression. She opened her mouth and looked at the person who was attacking her from the opposite side. Her jagged fangs were exposed, emitting a breath of hot air:

"dragon?!"

Chapter 9. Let Me Be Your Dog

A few minutes ago.

"Interesting... Interesting, come again!"

The golden figure bit the flaming monster holding a spear like a mad dog. Although it was holding a giant axe as tall as a person, its petite body was agile and looked like a ghost.

The dancing golden wheel and the resisting bronze spear entangled with each other, making a crisp sound of ping-pong.

Xiao Yu and the other man, who were hiding in the ruins nearby, watched the fierce battle in front of them with burning eyes.
