"Thank you for this valuable gift," Lu Xiaotian said sincerely as he put away the jade slip.
"What are you thanking me for? You've helped me a lot and saved me a few times," Ye Ziyu blinked and said playfully.
"Alright, then we're even." Lu Xiaotian smiled when he heard that.
"Don't. Actually, that's not all. I keep feeling like I've seen you before, that I know you. But I just can't remember. " Ye Ziyu stared at Lu Xiaotian. Suddenly, her body trembled and her face turned pale without a trace of blood. Her entire body began to tremble uncontrollably.
"Brother Lu, Brother Lu, my head hurts …" Ye Ziyu covered her head with both hands and couldn't help but scream.
"Don't think about it. We only met for the first time in Yuan Spirit City. How could you have known me before?" Lu Xiaotian hurriedly supported Ye Ziyu. He had long since confirmed that the Ye Ziyu in front of him was Joe Yu. The same Ethereal Sword Embryo, the same dual Primordial Spirits. Once they opened their hearts, even their expressions were exactly the same. But Lu Xiaotian didn't know why, but Joe Yu, who was now Ye Ziyu, would have a splitting headache whenever she thought about the past.
What had Joe Yu experienced after they were separated by the spatial storm?
"Brother Lu, what's the matter?" A faint fragrance wafted over. It was Mo Yuyan's voice.
"Miss Ye has a headache again." Lu Xiaotian frowned inwardly. However, his frown soon disappeared. This Mo Yuyan was a rare beauty. She was also a rare beauty. Her cultivation base was also high. As her cousin, she took great care of Ye Ziyu. Everything seemed normal. However, a year ago, when Mo Yuyan was protecting Ye Ziyu, who was cultivating, Lu Xiaotian came back from outside and accidentally discovered a flash of hostility from Mo Yuyan. Lu Xiaotian wasn't sure if this hostility was directed at Ye Ziyu or if it was because she was thinking of a past enemy. However, Lu Xiaotian was secretly on guard against Mo Yuyan.
One should not have the intention to harm others, but one should always be on guard against others.
"Brother Lu, I've known Miss Ye for so long, but I've never seen her have a headache before. Why is it that ever since I met you, she's had this kind of situation one after another?" Shu Tiance complained to Lu Xiaotian.
"I'm not sure either." Lu Xiaotian shook his head. Shu Tiance was enjoying himself. Even a fool could see that Shu Tiance had a crush on Ye Ziyu for a long time. However, Ye Ziyu didn't have much interest in him.
"Alright, let's bring Cousin back to where we're staying first." Mo Yuyan said, then supported Ye Ziyu and left.
Shu Tiance glared at Lu Xiaotian. He didn't understand either. In terms of appearance, he was also handsome. Compared to Lu Xiaotian, who looked delicate and pretty, he was much more attractive. In terms of cultivation, although Lu Xiaotian didn't lose to him, he wasn't much stronger. In terms of family power, he couldn't compare at all. Shu Tiance was always attentive to her, but Ye Ziyu only treated him as a friend.
On the other hand, Lu Xiaotian seemed to ignore Ye Ziyu, but Ye Ziyu was willing to talk to Lu Xiaotian. Shu Tiance naturally felt that it was unfair. They were both humans, but why was there such a huge difference in treatment?
"Stop!" They had just entered a forest, which was the place where the group of people were staying. They had set up several sets of restrictions in the vicinity of the forest. At this moment, Lu Xiaotian had already sensed that the restriction was loosening.
"A demon has intruded." Mo Yuyan and Shu Tiance quickly got into formation.
"It actually dares to intrude into our temporary immortal's cave when we're not here. It's really reckless." Shu Tiance had long been suppressing his anger because of Lu Xiaotian, and was worried that he had nowhere to vent it.
"Brother Shu, don't be careless. The demon that intruded into our temporary immortal's cave is definitely not simple." Mo Yuyan shook her head.
Not far away, a strange shadow was swaying. Shu Tiance's body drifted over like a cool breeze. As a wind-type cultivator, Shu Tiance was the fastest among the group.
"Whoosh." A hook-like tail shot towards Shu Tiance from a dark corner like lightning.
Shu Tiance snorted coldly. He opened his mouth and spat out three long and narrow azure throwing knives. They directly chopped towards the slender tail. However, before Shu Tiance could react, two long and narrow tails suddenly shot out from the opposite direction. They wrapped around the handles of the throwing knives as fast as lightning.
Shu Tiance was startled. He hurriedly controlled the throwing knives to break free. At this moment, three fierce shadows suddenly pounced towards Shu Tiance from several directions.
"Moo!" With a long moo, Lu Xiaotian stretched out his palm and slapped the air. A Wood Demon Bull formed from Blood Astral Energy rushed forward and directly knocked away the two fierce shadows.
A small azure banner appeared in Shu Tiance's hand. With a wave of the banner, a hurricane wrapped around the other shadow. That shadow struggled fiercely for a few moments and broke free from the hurricane. The other two shadows that were knocked away by the Blood Astral Wood Demon Bull only jumped a few times before disappearing again. It was as if those slender tails had never appeared.
"Strange. Where did they go?" Shu Tiance looked around suspiciously. He was trying to find traces of the attackers. However, no matter how he looked with his eyes or searched with his divine sense, he couldn't find any useful clues.
Lu Xiaotian's divine sense moved. The Magnolia Purpurea's roots dug into the ground. Apart from finding some demonic insects and low-grade monsters that lived in the soil all year round, there was nothing else of value. The scene in front of him was a bit too bizarre.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!" Several heart-chilling owl cries were heard. Several shadows jumped to the ground and scurried around at an astonishing speed.
"Over there!"
"There are some here too," Mo Yuyan and Ye Ziyu also found traces of these strange shadows behind them and to the left.
"Don't panic. These strange shadows might have some natural concealment technique. However, their individual attack power isn't strong. Let's not be too far apart to prevent them from taking advantage of the situation," Lu Xiaotian frowned. In terms of primordial spirit, he was the strongest among the four. However, every time he tried to lock onto one or a few strange shadows, the other party would quickly jump a few times and mysteriously disappear.
It was impossible for them to escape the Magnolia Purpurea and his primordial spirit's search. Since he ruled out the possibility of them being underground. Lu Xiaotian pursed his lips. Let's see where they can hide after tearing down their houses.
"These guys are hiding in the trees nearby. Damn it. Let's cut down these trees and see where they can hide." Lu Xiaotian noticed. Shu Tiance, Mo Yuyan, and the others weren't stupid. Naturally, they also noticed.
"Don't be stupid. These spiritual trees are basically Purple Mulberry Trees and Plum Veined Cedar Trees. Even if the few of us work together, it will probably take a while and consume a lot of energy. Let's leave the forest. At worst, we'll just find another place to stay, "Ye Ziyu said with a frown.
