Before the 10 days were up, there were only two wooden tokens left in the seven days since Lu Ye's announcement.
This meant that there were only two sects in the core circle that did not come.
The words engraved on these two wooden tokens were New Moon Sect and Cloud Sun Sect respectively.
These two sects would not come again.
Their base had been destroyed and their disciples were dead or injured. Why would they come to deliver supplies to Lu Ye?
Lu Ye had expected this and did not mind.
He got up and stretched. After several days of rest, he was full of energy. Since the matter at the Spirit Stream Battlefield was over, there was no need to stay here any longer.
However, before he left, he could take a look at Hua Ci. He wondered how she was doing now. It was about time for her to advance to the Cloud River Realm.
He took out his spirit boat and flew towards the Ten Thousand Poisons Forest.
On the Heavenly Sword Peak, the wind howled, leaving only two wooden tokens with different names engraved on them.
Lu Ye had seized a great deal of the Myriad Demons Ridge's resources here twice. Due to that, Heavenly Sword Peak became a thorn in the hearts of many cultivators from the Myriad Demons Ridge. Many years later, whenever the cultivators from the Myriad Demons Ridge passed by this place, they would take a detour around it. They would never recklessly step foot on Heavenly Sword Peak.
The Ten Thousand Poisons Forest was in the core circle and was not too far from the Heavenly Sword Peak. A day later, when Lu Ye leisurely arrived above the Ten Thousand Poisons Forest, he could not help but be surprised.
He found that the Ten Thousand Poisons Forest was different from before.
The most obvious change was that the entire Ten Thousand Poisons Forest seemed to have shrunk by a lot. The area that used to be shrouded in poisonous fog was now a safe place.
Overall, it had shrunk by at least 30 to 40 percent.
This was the forbidden area of the Spirit Stream Battlefield, a place that cultivators were not willing to step into easily. Not only was there a poisonous fog that could kill people, but there were also all kinds of poisonous insects that lived in the poisonous forest.
Even the cultivators of Tian Jiu were unable to penetrate too deep.
Was the shrinking of the Ten Thousand Poisons Forest related to Hua Ci?
Lu Ye knew that Hua Ci's cultivation needed to refine the poisonous fog. However, only a few months had passed and the Ten Thousand Poisons Forest had become like this. If Hua Ci was given more time, wouldn't this forbidden area disappear completely?
This woman … was really terrifying!
He went straight into the forest and went deep inside.
When he reached the wooden house in the forest, he saw a small courtyard with a tall fence and a tightly shut door.
Lu Ye went forward and knocked on the door. "Is anyone home?"
There was no response.
After probing for a bit, he found that there was no sign of life in the wooden house.
Hua Ci is not here?
Lu Ye was a little surprised. He thought that Hua Ci had always been cultivating here. He did not expect that she would disappear without a trace. Now, he did not know where she went.
Pushing open the door, he walked into the house and looked around. Everything in the house was spotless, which meant that Hua Ci was still living here, but he didn't know what she was doing now.
Walking out of the house, Lu Ye thought for a moment and headed to the place where Hua Ci had been cultivating.
When she lived here before, Hua Ci didn't cultivate in the house because there was an array set up by Lu Ye. As long as the array was maintained, it could isolate the corrosive poisonous fog, making it inconvenient for her to cultivate.
After walking for a short distance, Lu Ye suddenly heard a soft singing voice and the sound of flowing water.
This woman … seems to be in a good mood. I wonder what she's doing.
He retracted his aura and concealed his figure, preparing to scare her.
She had been here all by herself for several months without any communication with the outside world. She hadn't sent him any messages either, so it was clear that she didn't know that he had come to the Spirit Stream Battlefield.
Suddenly appearing in front of her at this time would definitely give her a pleasant surprise.
Following the source of the singing voice, Lu Ye passed through a patch of low shrubs and looked up. His expression stiffened.
There was a pool there at some point. The pool was not very big, only a few feet in length and width. The water in the pool rippled with an abnormal green color.
Just looking at the pool gave off an extremely uncomfortable feeling. It was easy to imagine how poisonous the water in the pool was.
Lu Ye did not know how Hua Ci had created this pool of poisonous water. When he and Yi Yi were here, this pool had not been there. It was clearly Hua Ci's work.
More importantly, Hua Ci was bathing in the pool at this moment.
Her entire body was almost submerged in the pool, and only the area above her neck was exposed. Her two white and tender arms swayed gently on the surface of the water, and occasionally, a few delicate toes floated mischievously on the surface of the water. She was softly humming an unknown song.
Just by looking at her current state, Lu Ye could already imagine what she looked like!
This … If he was discovered, wouldn't he be treated as a hoodlum and beaten up?
He did not expect to see such a scene when he ran over.
Just as he was about to quietly retreat, the singing voice suddenly stopped. Immediately afterward, Lu Ye felt a pair of sharp eyes staring at the place where he was hiding.
He immediately had an ominous feeling!
With a splash, Hua Ci waved her hand and a green water arrow flew out of the pool, aiming at Lu Ye's location with unparalleled precision.
Should I hide? Or should I not hide?
At this moment, Lu Ye's heart was in knots. If he hid, it would make him look guilty, but if he did not hide, he would definitely be exposed.
Before he could make a decision, the water arrow hit his chest. It did not cause any damage, but the water arrow suddenly turned into a green mist and wrapped around Lu Ye's body, breaking his concealment.
Then, Lu Ye felt a large amount of grey mist ignite in his Innate Skill Tree …
"Ah …" In the pool, Hua Ci, who only had her head exposed, covered her mouth and exclaimed, "I was wondering what kind of little beast it was, it turns out to be a beast!"
She looked very shocked, and words that were even more poisonous than the pool water came out of her mouth.
"Don't give me that!" Lu Ye huffed, "Besides me, who else can enter this damned place? You already guessed it was me, so stop pretending."
This could be seen from the fact that the water arrow did not cause any damage. Hua Ci knew that Lu Ye was immune to poison, so the water arrow's main point was the poison, not its own damage.
Of course, if the one who came was not Lu Ye, he would probably be waiting for death at this moment.
The poison in the pool water was several times stronger than the poison Lu Ye had experienced in the Forest of a Thousand Poisons.
"I don't know, how would I know?"
Hua Ci pursed her lips and chuckled, reaching out to play with the water, "But why are you here? Isn't the Cloud River Battlefield fun? "
"Fun, it's too fun." Since his whereabouts had been exposed, Lu Ye simply walked forward to the other side of the pool, squatted down, and scooped up some water.
The grey mist on his Innate Skill Tree increased …
Considering that his Innate Skill Tree did not have much fuel left, Lu Ye did not dare play around anymore, otherwise, he would definitely be taken advantage of by Hua Ci.
"Something happened, so I came here. I thought I'd come to see you on the way."
"So it was just on the way …" Hua Ci's expression suddenly became bitter. If someone who did not know the situation saw this, they would probably think that Lu Ye had done something to her and then abandoned her.
As she spoke, her hands did not stop moving. Her slender neck, white and tender skin, and some other beautiful things were faintly discernible. Coupled with her wet hair and sorrowful expression, it was truly captivating.
If someone said that she did not do it on purpose, Lu Ye would not believe it even if he was beaten to death.
"Do I look good?" Hua Ci's cheeks flushed red. Under Lu Ye's gaze, she lowered her head slightly, looking very shy.
"En."
"Do you want to see more?"
Lu Ye immediately perked up, "Can I?"
Hua Ci's head was still lowered, her voice as soft as a mosquito's, "Of course not for others, but if it's you … it doesn't matter."
As she said this, she gently closed her eyes. Her long eyelashes trembled uneasily, and then she slowly stood up. The dark green pool water slid down her smooth neck, outlining the most beautiful scene in the world.
Lu Ye's eyes widened to the size of copper bells.
"Hahahaha, you big idiot!"
Standing in the pool, Hua Ci, dressed in a dress, laughed and laughed as much as she could, mocking him.
Lu Ye painfully closed his eyes. I, who had expectations of this woman, am really a piece of trash!
But who would have thought that the woman who was soaking in the pool in such an environment would actually be fully clothed!
Lu Ye stood up and turned to leave.
Hua Ci shouted from behind, "Hey, where are you going?"
"It's none of your business!"
His heart, which was ready to enjoy the beautiful scenery, was lifted high and then slammed to the ground, shattering into pieces. Do you think I don't care about my face?
A moment later, a neatly dressed Hua Ci appeared in the small wooden house. She saw Lu Ye lying on a hammock in the small courtyard, his head resting on his hands as he looked at the sky in boredom.
Wrapped in a fragrant wind, Hua Ci walked to Lu Ye's side and leaned over to look at him, "Are you angry?"
"What's there to be angry about?" Lu Ye rolled his eyes, "I'm hungry, go make something to eat."
Although the food Hua Ci made didn't look very good, the taste and effect were very good, and they were all very nutritious.
"Okay!" Hua Ci said, her already bent body even lower.
Before Lu Ye could come back to his senses, he was suddenly kissed on the forehead.
Before she could retreat, Lu Ye grabbed her arm.
Hua Ci was puzzled, "What are you doing?"
"What are you doing?"
"Aren't you angry? I'm apologizing to you, "she said matter-of-factly.
"Am I a child? Do I need you to kiss me on the forehead? "Lu Ye's face was full of resentment. It was clearly a way to comfort a child.
"Then what do you want?"
Lu Ye's eyes moved down and stared at her red lips.
A trace of panic flashed in Hua Ci's eyes, and her breathing quickened slightly. But soon, she put on an indifferent look and looked at Lu Ye with a smile. Her beautiful eyes were as bright as the stars.
Time passed little by little, and the two of them remained motionless in this position.
After a long while, Lu Ye released her.
Hua Ci jumped back and instinctively sneered, "Coward!"
"Get over here!" Lu Ye flew into a rage.
"Don't even think about it!" Hua Ci chuckled and ran even farther.
The soft song sounded again, and Hua Ci's mood was obviously better. In a moment, the small courtyard was filled with the fragrance of food.
