However, there was no one behind her. There were only a few thin branches swaying with the wind. Even a bird could not stand on such a thin branch, so naturally, no one would stand on it.
She pursed her lips and took out a sword from her waist. After playing with it for a moment, she suddenly swung it behind her as if she had accidentally lost her grip.
The blade of the sword was like a bright arc, and it swept past her back.
If there was really something behind her, her sword would be enough to make it reveal itself.
However, after her sword swept past, it did not touch anything except the air.
Could it be a ghost?
Gu Xijiu looked down and flicked her finger. A light blue charm was released from the tip of her finger. It spun in the air and flew one round around her body before flying back to her palm.
She brought her palm closer to her nose and sniffed, but she did not smell anything.
The charm was an exorcism charm. In the modern era, she knew a few people with supernatural powers. She had a good relationship with an exorcist, and the exorcist taught her a few tricks to capture ghosts. Although she had only learned a little, it was not a problem for her to deal with ordinary ghosts.
Once the charm was used, any invisible ghost would be revealed. Now that the charm had made one round, it did not force anything out. It seemed that she was just being paranoid.
Perhaps it was the wind?
Her figure flashed and instantly disappeared.
Not long after her figure disappeared, another figure appeared on the same tree.
He was wearing a light smoke mountain and river robe. His hair was casually loose, and there was only a headband tied in between his hair. In the middle of the headband, there was a blood-red gem in the shape of a charming fox's eye, shining brightly under the moonlight.
This person was wearing a fox-shaped mask. Behind the mask, there was a pair of mysterious eyes that looked like flowing water under the moonlight. It was cold and warm at the same time.
He was also sitting there, but his posture was more relaxed than Gu Xijiu's. His robe flowed along with the wind until it reached the bottom of the tree.
The branch that he was sitting on was very thin, even thinner than a willow that sprouted in spring. A child could easily break it.
Although it was such a thin branch, it was very stable for him to sit on, and it did not even tremble.
If one were to take a closer look, one would realize that the branch he was sitting on was very close to the branch that Gu Xijiu used to sit on. If Gu Xijiu was still sitting on the same spot, it would look like she was sitting in his arms.
This person had one leg bent and one arm supporting his chin lazily. His long hair cascaded down his body. It was clearly a very dark place, but as he sat there, it was like a ray of spring sunshine. In an instant, everything in the surroundings was illuminated.
He looked at the direction where Gu Xijiu had disappeared, and his pale lips curled up slightly.
The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. That little bastard probably did not expect that he had been behind her all along …
However, this little bastard's vigilance was really not ordinary. Just now, he had only taken a light breath, which was slightly closer to her neck, and in return, her sword was pointed at him!
He obviously had no spiritual power, but his movements were faster than lightning! She almost touched the corner of his robe …
Her talisman drawing was also not bad. He was considered knowledgeable, but even he had never seen the lines on her talisman.
Also, his instantaneous disappearance was very strange …
This child seemed to have changed into a different person.
He lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment. Suddenly, he chuckled. His pale figure flashed through the air like a thin mist and disappeared.
