You Xian watched Yin Ye remain silent, then thought of Yue Ci's departure. She said again, "Why don't we leave first?"
"Leave..." Yin Ye uttered the word and suddenly smelled an unusual demonic energy. She immediately swallowed the words that were about to leave her lips, looked down at Ouyang Ye, who was looking up at them, and froze.
You Xian saw Yin Ye's expression was off, her nerves tightening. She followed Yin Ye's gaze downward and was shocked.
Ouyang Ye: "Xi'er said she couldn't see you two. You've been hiding here all this time."
"..." Yin Ye averted her gaze and extended her arm towards You Xian.
You Xian looked at it and asked, stunned, "What for?"
"I'll take you down."
"I don't want to," You Xian shook her head, then cautiously glanced at Ouyang Ye below. "If we go down, he'll definitely capture us. I don't want to go down."
"If you offend him, we'll all be finished."
"I..." You Xian looked troubled. After thinking about Ouyang Ye's methods, she still felt afraid. "Alright, I'll listen to you." Saying that, she grabbed Yin Ye's arm.
Immediately, Yin Ye took You Xian and leaped down, standing before Ouyang Ye. Yin Ye asked, "What do you want with us?"
"I'm going to marry Mu Anxiao soon. She's short two maids, and you two are just right."
"We..." You Xian began, cautiously glancing at Yin Ye, and continued, "We can't."
"I think you can, so you can. If you argue with me, you should know..." Ouyang Ye met You Xian's eyes intently, "the consequences."
Consequences?
You Xian was not Ouyang Ye's subordinate, but she had already experienced Ouyang Ye's 'ruthlessness' before. Thus, she was afraid.
"We dare not," she shook her head.
"It's good that you dare not," Ouyang Ye was satisfied with You Xian's reply. He turned to Yin Ye, who was staring at him, and asked, "Do you have something to say?"
Yin Ye: "If I remember correctly, you were looking for bad omens. If you really marry Mu Anxiao, you will definitely..."
"You don't need to worry about that," Ouyang Ye interrupted.
Yin Ye dared not disobey Ouyang Ye, so she fell silent.
Ouyang Ye: "Come with me." Saying that, he turned and walked towards the direction of the giant black bear monster.
Yin Ye swallowed, turned to You Xian, and said, "Let's go."
You Xian nodded.
Over there.
Mu Anxiao stood panting behind the giant black bear monster, looking up at the back of its head. She said, "Dagger, let's go." She gripped the dagger.
"I'll listen to you," Dagger replied softly.
Mu Anxiao nodded, sprinted forward, and leaped into the air behind the giant black bear monster. With one fluid motion, she plunged the dagger into its back. Her gaze then sharpened, and after drilling the dagger twice into its flesh, she kicked its back forcefully, pulled out the dagger, and turned to fly down.
Immediately, at the same moment she flew down, the giant black bear monster roared in pain twice and turned, swiping its claws directly at her.
The next second, a strange wind suddenly blew around them. Mu Anxiao's nerves tightened, and she quickly sidestepped, narrowly dodging the giant black bear monster's claws and falling heavily to the ground.
The giant black bear monster missed its target. It lowered its head towards Mu Anxiao, who was lying on the ground, and roared.
Xi'er seized this opportunity to use her demonic arts to stop the giant black bear monster from harming Mu Anxiao again.
Mu Anxiao lay feebly on the ground, allowing blood to seep from the corner of her mouth. She inadvertently noticed the crack on the dagger and hurriedly asked, "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine," Dagger's voice was weak.
Then, Mu Anxiao's heart sank. She grabbed a handful of wet mud and said, "You can't follow me anymore." Saying that, she began to dig the soil with her bare hands.
Dagger: "What are you doing? I won't leave you, you..."
"Your dagger already has a crack. If you continue to follow me, you'll be scattered into ashes," Mu Anxiao interrupted in a low voice. After digging a small pit, she placed the dagger inside. "You can come out when it's over," she said, covering the dagger with wet soil one by one.
Dagger was speechless.
At this moment, the giant black bear monster had been controlled by Xi'er's demonic arts. "Don't touch her," she said to the giant black bear monster earnestly.
The giant black bear monster roared twice.
Immediately, Mu Anxiao coughed and spat out some blood. She said, "I'm not afraid of you." Saying that, she used her hands to support herself on the ground, struggled to stand up, and swayed towards the giant black bear monster.
The giant black bear monster heard Mu Anxiao's voice, its eyes then glowed red. Intending to ignore Xi'er, it slowly turned towards Mu Anxiao and roared at her.
Seeing this, Xi'er's eyes widened. She asked, "What are you going to do?" She was still using her demonic arts to try and control it.
However, the giant black bear monster still roared twice at Mu Anxiao without looking back and swiped its claws at her again.
Mu Anxiao looked up and glared at the giant black bear monster, saying, "I'm not afraid of you." Saying that, she clenched her fists, rushed forward a couple of steps, then leaped up, intentionally weaving in front of the giant black bear monster's eyes.
The giant black bear monster roared and tracked Mu Anxiao with its gaze.
Xi'er watched the scene before her and, remembering Ouyang Ye's instructions, her heart sank. She quickly flew up.
At this moment, Ouyang Ye stopped with You Xian and Yin Ye beside a tree not far from them. Ouyang Ye looked up at Mu Anxiao, who was fighting the giant black bear monster, and frowned, "Why is it her."
Yin Ye and You Xian were also startled. Especially You Xian, who immediately hid behind Yin Ye upon seeing the monster.
"It's so big," she said.
Yin Ye glanced at You Xian but said nothing.
Xi'er stopped steadily in front of the giant black bear monster and said, "Don't move." She reached out and touched the giant black bear monster's big nose.
Mu Anxiao also stopped. "You're helping me," she said, hovering behind Xi'er.
Xi'er tilted her head and said, "You can't die. Go down."
"Are you afraid Ouyang Ye will blame you?" Mu Anxiao exposed her.
Xi'er's eyes darkened. While gently stroking the giant black bear monster's nose, she turned to Mu Anxiao and asked, "Do you really want to die that badly? It eats people."
"Your goal was to have this guy eat Feng Qishi," Mu Anxiao said coldly. "That's truly ruthless."
Xi'er: "Go down." She wanted to evade the topic.
Mu Anxiao was relentless. "Let's make a bet."
Xi'er frowned. "What madness are you going to start now?"
"I bet that if I die, Ouyang Ye won't do anything to you," Mu Anxiao said calmly.
"I won't bet with you. You go down," Xi'er was startled by Mu Anxiao's words.
Mu Anxiao: "But I want to bet. If I win, you'll let these people go, how about it?"
"I wasn't going to do anything to these people anyway. Now," Xi'er became anxious, "hurry up and go down."
