There were many beauties in the world, but there weren't many that could make Yang Wu fall in love at first sight. However, there was one in front of him.
She was as beautiful as a fairy. Every part of her was perfect and impeccable. Even though her face was injured, not only did she not look ugly, she even gave others a sense of wild beauty.
Perhaps some people were born beautiful no matter how they looked.
"She's a bit cute like a slug." Yang Wu thought in his heart.
He was not at the level of falling in love with every girl he saw. The other party was undoubtedly a perfect girl, but this kind of girl gave people a sense of distance. He only had admiration for her and did not have any improper thoughts.
Yang Wu stood guard for the young girl. He bit on a weed and sensed the movements in all directions. Occasionally, he would sneak a peek at the young girl. Her entire body was suffused with a strong fiery light, as if a phoenix was bathing in fire. She looked extremely mysterious.
Xuanyuan Huowu recovered very quickly. She finished healing in less than an hour.
Xuanyuan Huowu looked at Yang Wu. Her sparkling beautiful eyes were suffused with traces of scorching light. It was very moving. It was no wonder that so many men were willing to die for her.
"Were you secretly looking at this princess just now?" Xuanyuan Huowu looked straight at Yang Wu and asked.
Yang Wu nodded honestly and said, "I was. I was afraid that you would go berserk. I could save you at any time."
"Men are all the same. However, this princess is so beautiful that even women can't help but take a few more glances at me. You can be considered a real man to be able to admit it." Xuanyuan Huowu said with a strong aura.
Yang Wu found it hard to believe that these words came from a princess. She was too narcissistic.
The next moment, a trace of rosy color appeared on her face and said, "You … Do you think I'm very beautiful?"
Yang Wu was speechless.
Could it be that she was just pretending to be confident?
Or was she just pretending to be shy?
He found that the girl in front of him changed too quickly. He could not accept it, so he decided to leave first.
"You're fine, I'll leave first." Yang Wu left as soon as he said that. He felt that the girl in front of him was a dangerous person.
"Don't go. I'm scared. Can you stay with me?" Xuanyuan Huowu said timidly as she lightly tugged at the corner of Yang Wu's clothes. Her amber eyes seemed to be filled with sparkling and translucent tears.
Yang Wu's heart almost melted.
Fortunately, his will was firm, and he quickly came back to his senses and said, "You and I will go our separate ways. Don't delay the journey."
"We can work together."
"If we join forces, we'll be disqualified."
"Hehe, looks like you don't know anything about the God of War Pagoda. After reaching this level, you can use any method you want. As long as you can reach the entrance to the ninth level, that will do."
"Are you really going to use all means?"
"Of course, even if it's an imperial edict!"
"Then I'm relieved!"
"Hey, it's your honor to be able to accompany you in this trial. Why do you have to walk by yourself again?"
…
Yang Wu felt that he was an upright gentleman. Facing a beauty capable of causing the downfall of cities, he was still firm in his heart and wasn't tempted by her beauty. How rare was that? How great was that? How great was that? How many men in this world could compare to him?
The next moment, his heart completely collapsed.
"Ouch! My leg!" Xuanyuan Huowu, who was chasing after him, was in pain. She fell to the ground, and blood seeped out of her calf. This blood also had a strong pungent smell. It was obvious that she had been injured by the Four-Winged Demonic Tiger and was corroded by the demonic aura. She hadn't been able to expel the demonic aura out of her body just now.
Yang Wu didn't need to turn around to sense that the other party wasn't faking it. The softest string in his heart completely melted.
He turned around and said, "Continue to heal your injuries. I'll stand guard for you for another hour."
He wasn't a gentleman if he didn't save someone in need, right?
The reason Yang Wu found for himself to comfort himself was pretty good.
"You're so heartless. I just want to go to the entrance to the ninth level with you. I won't drag you down. If we really fight, I might not lose to you," Xuanyuan Huowu said delicately.
Those who saw it would be sad, and those who heard it would shed tears.
"Alright. Hurry up and heal your leg. We'll set off together." Yang Wu patted his forehead and replied.
This mountain range was incomparably dangerous. Perhaps having an extra helper would be of great help to him in his journey.
However, he soon regretted his decision.
Xuanyuan Huowu had completely expelled the demonic aura, and the injury on her leg quickly healed. She once again recovered her spirit, and set off together with Yang Wu.
Yang Wu felt that Xuanyuan Huowu's strength should only be one realm higher than his. She should be at the peak of the Heavenly Fish Realm, or at the half-step Dragon Transformation Realm. She hadn't truly stepped into the Dragon Transformation Realm yet.
The other party's age seemed to be one or two years younger than him. This kind of talent was no different from the Young Hall King he met in the fragmented space. They were both extremely abnormal.
If Yang Wu didn't have the help of the Regal Nine Profound Arts and some other opportunities, it would be difficult for him to reach his current realm so quickly.
Yang Wu thought that bringing Xuanyuan Huowu along was pleasing to the eye. However, when she casually walked through the mountain range without concealing her aura, and even deliberately provoked those sleeping fierce beasts, he realized that the situation wasn't good.
Roar!
Roar! Many fierce beasts roared angrily and attacked them.
Not only did Xuanyuan Huowu not leave quickly, she even pulled Yang Wu into a fierce battle with these fierce beasts.
"Come at me if you big guys have the ability. This princess will receive all of them." Xuanyuan Huowu hooted.
"Damn, we're passing through this mountain range, not fighting all the fierce beasts here. Why are you provoking them?" Yang Wu grumbled. He pulled Xuanyuan Huowu and wanted to escape. Who knew that Xuanyuan Huowu would pull him back and say, "What are you afraid of? We'll be invincible under the heavens if we combine forces. We'll kill our way to the entrance of the ninth floor."
More than ten fierce beasts attacked. Every one of them was not inferior to a peak Heavenly Realm expert. There were even half-step Minor Saints. Their combined attack was quite extraordinary. It wasn't something that ordinary people could withstand.
Yang Wu had no choice but to attack these fierce beasts.
"Kill, kill these big guys. There's nothing special about them." While Yang Wu was fighting those Ferocious Beasts, Xuanyuan Huowu actually retreated to the back and watched him fight those Ferocious Beasts. She was shouting and shouting, and had no intention of joining in. This made him feel extremely speechless.
Yang Wu quickly killed these fierce beasts. He rushed to Xuanyuan Huowu and said loudly, "Have you caused enough trouble?!"
Xuanyuan Huowu timidly replied, "What are you doing? Isn't it just killing a few fierce beasts? Why are you so angry?"
"Don't you know that there's a time limit here? If we can't pass through in half a month, we won't be able to enter the ninth floor. What's the point of wasting time here? If you don't want to enter the ninth floor, you can just stay here. I don't have time to mess around with you." After Yang Wu loudly reprimanded, he didn't plan to pay attention to Xuanyuan Huowu anymore and prepared to leave this place quickly.
At this time, Xuanyuan Huowu's sweet voice rang out again, "If you leave, all the spiritual herbs around here will belong to me."
Yang Wu's figure paused. He turned around and said to Xuanyuan Huowu, "Don't play with me anymore. Everything here is an illusion. It's not real!"
"Hehe, the previous few floors were indeed illusions. However, the things on this floor are real. It's up to you to believe it or not." Xuanyuan Huowu revealed a trace of craftiness as she spoke. Then, she flew towards a certain direction and quickly plucked a tender and beautiful flower. It was a small sunflower that emitted a dense medicinal fragrance.
Yang Wu's gaze slightly froze. He carefully observed it. That small sunflower didn't seem to be fake. He hesitated for a moment before his figure flew towards a nearby place and plucked a stalk of Green Snake Vine. This was a heavenly herb and its value wasn't low.
Yang Wu took a little bit of it and carefully chewed it. He could feel the traces of medicinal properties released from it. He was certain that this should be real.
"If the illusion can be created to this extent, then I have nothing to say." Yang Wu decided to believe Xuanyuan Huowu's words.
"How about it? The herbs here are incomparably abundant. As long as we properly pluck them, we'll have a great harvest. Who knows, we might even be able to find our ancestor's inheritance. That would be wonderful." Xuanyuan Huowu held her hands behind her back, puffed out her chest, and skipped towards Yang Wu.
Yang Wu looked at this fairy-like girl and hesitated for a moment before saying, "No matter how many things there are, our time is limited. Unless we're going to stay here and cultivate, I don't recommend wasting too much time here."
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. We should have just entered not long ago. We still have a dozen or so days to use. With our abilities, as long as we're careful, we can reach the entrance of the ninth floor within seven days. In that case, we still have a few days to use to find some valuable things. It would be a pity if we came here and returned empty-handed." Xuanyuan Huowu said in all seriousness. Her beautiful eyes were suffused with a completely different light from before. It really made it hard for people to tell which was the real her.
Yang Wu muttered to himself for a moment before saying, "Alright, since you have such courage, I'll accompany you in this madness. However, you can't act recklessly again. Otherwise, it'll be easy to provoke those big guys. You've learned from your mistakes more than I have."
"That's natural. This princess isn't a brainless person. Let's plan a bit before we take action."
"Then why did you deliberately provoke those fierce beasts just now?"
"I did that just to test whether you have the ability to cooperate with this princess."
"You're simply making trouble without reason."
"Aiya, you're a big man. Why are you being so fussy? Do you dare to do it or not?!"
"Alright, this is the first time I've been looked down upon by someone. How can a man say no? Who's afraid of who?!"
"Then you have to listen to my commands. Otherwise, you'll suffer a great loss."
"Don't, I don't trust you. Let me do it."
"Yang Wu, do you know who this princess is?"
"I really don't!"
