"It's right to move all of us, but if we keep hiding like this, it's not a good idea. What if one day, the Meng Family suddenly attack us without you knowing? How are we going to deal with them?" Xiao Lingyu said with worry.
"We don't seem to have any other choice except to hide. I have investigated the Meng Family. Although I can't find out their specific strength, at least one thing is certain. They don't lack Spirit Demon experts, and their current patriarch seems to be a Late Stage Spirit Demon expert." Gong He said with a wry smile.
"Then does First Master have any good ideas?" Zhu Jin asked with a gloomy expression.
"Oh, now that we have been noticed by the Meng Family, it is impossible for us to move long distance. We can only find an absolutely safe place to hide." Xiao Lingyu replied after thinking for a while.
"But where is there an absolutely safe place around here? The Meng Family has been operating around the Meng Family for many years. No matter where we hide, they can find us. Unless we don't do anything in the future. "Gong He said with a sad face.
"If there is no other way, just give me to the Meng Family." Zhu Jin said helplessly.
"That's a good idea."
Xiao Lingyu replied without thinking, and when Gong He and Zhu Jin stared at him in a daze, he said again: "If this can solve the problem, I am very likely to choose this option, but even if I give you to the Meng Family, they will not give up."
"Why?" Gong He was puzzled.
"Because this kid has a treasure on him, and even if this kid goes to the Meng Family, I don't think he will give the treasure to the Meng Family. So, the Meng Family will definitely believe that this kid gave the treasure to the Heavenly Bandits. Do you think the Meng Family will let go of the Heavenly Bandits?" Xiao Lingyu seemed to be seriously analyzing.
"That's true."
Gong He nodded, then blinked his eyes and asked: "Is there really a treasure?"
Xiao Lingyu smiled and didn't speak.
Zhu Jin hesitated a little, then nodded and said: "There is a treasure, but if there is no Spirit Demon expert to lead us, we will only die."
"Let's talk about the treasure later. Right now, the most important thing is how to keep our lives under the pursuit of the Meng Family. Is there any enemy of the Meng Family nearby, or is there an existence that the Meng Family doesn't dare to provoke? "Xiao Lingyu changed the topic.
Zhu Jin and Gong He fell into deep thought. After a long while, Gong He said, "About two hundred thousand li to the west, there is a third-rate sect called the Blood Soul Sect. We can actually hide there."
"Although 200,000 Li is not far, it's just a third-rate sect. The Meng Clan should not have too many scruples." Xiao Lingyu shook her head and said.
"I heard that the Blood Soul Sect is attached to the Chepo Sect, and the Chepo Sect is a first-rate sect in the Blood Moon Continent. I think the Meng Family won't dare to behave atrociously in the territory of the Blood Soul Sect." Gong He explained.
"Chepo Sect?"
Xiao Lingyu felt that this name was a bit familiar. She carefully recalled that not long after she ascended, she saw the Teleportation Hall of the Chepo Sect.
"Is this news reliable?" Zhu Jin asked with bright eyes.
"I just heard about it. As for whether it is reliable or not, I don't know." Gong He said.
"Although it is very difficult to verify, it can also be speculated based on the many years of interaction between the Meng Family and the Blood Soul Sect. For example, did the Meng Family take the initiative to find fault with the Blood Soul Sect? If so, did they take advantage of it?" Xiao Lingyu said.
"Indeed, we can check it out. After all, the Blood Soul Sect is not very far from Mengying City. After so many years, the Meng Family and the Blood Soul Sect should have some interactions." Zhu Jin added.
"If the relationship between the Blood Soul Sect and the Chepo Sect is not shallow, in fact, you can also think of a way to sow discord between them or create a misunderstanding between them. Let the Blood Soul Sect and the Meng Family have a conflict, which will lead the Chepo Sect to suppress or even eliminate the Meng Family." Xiao Lingyu said while stroking his chin.
"This is the strategy of driving the tiger to swallow the wolf. However, provoking the tiger and the wolf is also a very dangerous thing." Zhu Jin said with a little worry.
"But it is better than sitting still and waiting for death. In our situation, we will not be able to deal with the Meng Family for a long time. We can only ask others to do it for us." Xiao Lingyu said with a smile.
After this matter was decided, Xiao Lingyu returned to the Eastern Demon Sect's Imperial Beast Hall valley and continued to recuperate in seclusion.
Although he was also very concerned about whether the Heavenly Bandits would be destroyed by the Meng Family, Xiao Lingyu had no time to spare. Solving the plan of Old Man Li was the top priority.
Besides, even if Xiao Lingyu personally led the Heavenly Bandits, it wouldn't be of much use. Moreover, it would only put him in more danger.
People were selfish. Xiao Lingyu and the Heavenly Bandits didn't have a deep relationship. To put it bluntly, he just wanted this bandit group to develop and help him earn more Magic Stones. At least for now, he wouldn't risk his life for the sake of the Heavenly Bandits.
Another half a year passed. Xiao Lingyu once again woke up from his meditation. It wasn't that someone knocked on his door, but that he sensed movement in his Spirit Beast Pouch.
The strange cub, which had the same Primal Chaos Magic Power as Xiao Lingyu, finally woke up from its deep sleep. It blinked its pair of sleepy eyes. After looking around a few times, it began to devour the bodies of the magical beasts that Xiao Lingyu had collected in the Eastern Demon Cave.
Although the strange cub was now at the level of a true demon, it was still very small. It was only half a foot long, and the carapace on its back had a metallic texture.
What surprised Xiao Lingyu was that the magical beasts that he had sent in were all at the level of a true demon. In less than the time it took to drink a cup of tea, the little fellow had swallowed all of them. Moreover, it only patted its little belly in a charmingly naive manner, without the slightest bit of discomfort.
"This little fellow is probably going to be a monster in the future!"
Xiao Lingyu praised in his heart. Then, with a thought, the little fellow appeared on his arm.
Although it had been asleep for many years, the strange cub was still very affectionate and dependent on Xiao Lingyu. It directly jumped onto Xiao Lingyu's shoulder and stuck out its little tongue to lick his cheek.
After playing with the strange cub for a few days, Xiao Lingyu continued to concentrate on recuperating. But after a few months, Xiao Lingyu suddenly found that the strange cub in the spirit beast bag was rolling around in pain. He invited it out.
At this time, the strange cub's entire body was shining with chaotic light. Even Xiao Lingyu's thoughts could not penetrate the layer of light to check its body.
Since he could not check, he naturally did not know why the strange cub was in so much pain. Seeing that it had been holding its stomach, Xiao Lingyu frowned and said, "Could it be that it ate too much before and got stuffed or had a stomachache?"
Xiao Lingyu was burning with worry, but he did not know what to do.
But fortunately, the strange cub's pain only lasted for an hour. What Xiao Lingyu did not expect was that after experiencing this pain, the strange cub's cultivation actually dropped to the early stage of the Heavenly Demon Realm. But its cultivation realm was much more stable than before.
"Why did it drop so much all of a sudden?" Xiao Lingyu had never encountered such a situation, so he was naturally surprised.
Under normal circumstances, if a cultivator's cultivation dropped so much, they would not be able to live for long, but this strange cub's condition was very good.
The pain disappeared, and the chaotic light on the strange cub's body also disappeared. Xiao Lingyu sank his thoughts into its body, but was surprised to find that there was an additional grayish-black bead in its body. Inside the bead, there was a rich chaotic magic.
"So it's an energy crystal core in its body … No, even if its power is gathered, why is it only at the early stage of the Heavenly Demon Realm?" Xiao Lingyu was relieved at first, but then he was puzzled.
In less than the time it took to drink a cup of tea, Xiao Lingyu's question was answered. The strange cub actually spat out the grayish-black bead.
After spitting out the bead, the strange cub did not have the slightest bit of regret. Instead, it looked as if a heavy burden had been lifted off its shoulders. It was as if the bead did not belong to it in the first place, and it even gave it a lot of pressure.
"How can this be?" Xiao Lingyu found the answer to his question, but he was still full of doubts.
Xiao Lingyu first carefully checked the strange cub, and found that it was still in good condition. Its body did not have any changes due to the drop in its cultivation, so he was slightly relieved.
Then he stared at the grayish-black bead. He felt that it was not an energy carrier, but a pill.
The strange cub stretched its body slightly, and then used one of its front claws to grab the grayish-black bead, and brought it to Xiao Lingyu. Its other front claw kept gesturing at the side of its mouth.
"You want me to eat it?" Xiao Lingyu asked in surprise.
"Squeak squeak!" The strange cub nodded and growled.
"How can I do that? It's yours." Xiao Lingyu refused.
The strange cub had been with Xiao Lingyu for a long time, so it could naturally understand Xiao Lingyu's words. It immediately waved its hands, indicating that the bead was useless to it, and that Xiao Lingyu could eat it without worry.
Xiao Lingyu pondered for a moment before swallowing the round bead that looked like a pill. He reckoned that this little fellow would not harm him.
After the bead entered Xiao Lingyu's stomach, he first tried to break it down. Although the bead was like a pill, it did not disperse after entering the stomach.
"Does it need to be refined?"
Xiao Lingyu hesitated for a while, and then brought the bead into his Dantian, wanting to use the Primordial Fire to refine it.
But just as the bead entered his Dantian, the Nascent Soul's eyes suddenly widened. Without Xiao Lingyu's control, it reached out and grabbed the bead, and then put it into its mouth, like a child eating candy.
But what surprised Xiao Lingyu was that after the bead entered the Nascent Soul's stomach, it did not bring any changes to himself or the Nascent Soul. In Xiao Lingyu's mind, the bead was just quietly floating in the Nascent Soul's stomach.
