Seven days later, the wind cried in the mountain.
"Last time we were nearby and found traces of the element-devouring beast, but now the traces have disappeared."
Huo Chunyan pressed the magic weapon in her hand, but couldn't sense anything, so she couldn't help but frown slightly.
Zhuge Yun also used a tracking technique. Seeing that the technique failed to work, there was no surprise in his eyes.
"Nine days have passed since the last time I came here. After such a long time, the element-devouring beast has already run away. However, this place should not be far from its lair, but the deeper you go, the higher the risk. Follow me. "
After saying that, Zhuge Yun raised his steps and walked deeper.
However, he didn't go very far when he suddenly stopped and seemed to be listening to something.
There was a faint sound coming from the front.
"There seems to be someone fighting ahead, probably three or four miles ahead on the left."
Huo Chunyan holds the soul surveying plate in her hand. Not only can she detect changes in spiritual energy, but her sensitivity to sounds is also higher than others.
So after listening for a while, he accurately reported the location of the fight.
It's just that the level of her spirit plate is not high, so if the other party deliberately hides it, he won't be able to detect anything.
Zhuge Yun prepared to take a detour without much thought. In this Wind-Crying Mountain, it is better to do less than to do more.
However, after walking only a mile, traces of the element-devouring beast were discovered again, and there were more than one.
At the same time, the faint sounds of fighting were heard more clearly.
"It's the element-devouring beast!"
Huo Chunyan showed a hint of excitement on her face, "In addition to the two groups of people fighting, there is also an element-devouring beast among them."
Zhuge Yun only hesitated for a moment before making his decision.
"Concentrate your breath and go take a look first!"
And the battle not far away has entered a fever pitch.
There were only two or three people left standing on both sides.
The originally huge Yuan Devouring Beast was now extremely miserable, with not a single piece of meat on its body, and it looked like it might die at any time.
Two groups of people were fighting fiercely, and no one noticed that several people were approaching quietly.
"The snipe and the clam fight, and the fisherman benefits. They are fighting to the death here, and we can take advantage of it..."
A sneer escaped from the corner of Zhuge Yun's mouth, but before he finished speaking, his expression suddenly changed when he saw the appearance of the female cultivator who was fighting fiercely.
"Get ready to take action!"
After saying that, Zhuge Yun rushed over like an arrow from a string.
He was about to take out his sword when he suddenly thought of something. He took out an iron fan abruptly and attacked the two people who were shaking with the female cultivator.
Zhuge Yun's movements were so fast that he even started to fight with others, and some of them were still unable to react.
Zhang Yu looked at Zhuge Yun who was already standing in a group with others, and his mouth was wide open before he could close it.
"Didn't Senior Brother Zhuge explain before we came here that we would not be allowed to act rashly or do anything expediently?"
"Who knows what he's up to! Could it be that he saw that female cultivator's beauty and got interested in her?"
Huo Chunyan complained and followed behind Xu Chunniang.
Zhao Xingsan's movements were also not slow. Hearing this, he subconsciously glanced at the female cultivator. He felt vaguely familiar, but he also knew that he definitely did not know this person.
After all, if you see such a powerful and beautiful female cultivator, you will never be unimpressed.
With Zhuge Yun and his men joining in, the originally evenly matched battle soon became one-sided.
Seeing that the victory was decided, the last remaining foundation-building cultivator of the opponent suddenly broke free from Zhuge Yun's blockade and rushed towards the beautiful cultivator with a ferocious smile.
"If you want me to die, I'll bury someone with you!"
As he spoke, he began to self-destruct without hesitation.
Zhuge Yun's expression changed greatly, and when he was about to stop him, he saw the female cultivator suddenly disappear from where she was. At the same time, the dying element-eating beast appeared where she originally stood.
And her body shape changed to where the element-devouring beast was.
The monk did not expect such a change, and his expression changed drastically, but his self-destruction had already begun and he could not stop at all.
Just hearing a "bang", the element-devouring beast endured endless aftermath and was blown to pieces in the self-destruction...
Simply when this monk showed signs of self-destruction, others stayed away, so his self-destruction did not affect others.
But causing such a big movement in the depths of Fengcrying Mountain may attract the prying eyes of others.
Zhuge Yun's mind was racing, but he looked towards the beautiful cultivator in the late stage of foundation building.
"Junior Sister Xue'er, are you okay?"
Junior sister Xueer?
Several people looked at each other and had a guess in their minds.
Could it be that this powerful and beautiful female cultivator is Shangguan Xue?
A cold voice sounded, confirming their suspicion.
"Thanks to Senior Brother Zhuge for taking action this time, but you still call me Shangguan Xue."
The smile at the corner of Zhuge Yun's mouth froze slightly, "Junior sister Shangguan said that, it's too unreasonable..."
However, before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted.
"Senior Brother Zhuge, are you sure you want to chat with me here?"
Shangguan Xue frowned slightly and scanned the mess everywhere without leaving a trace. The monk's self-destruction just now caused great commotion, so he had to move as soon as possible.
Zhuge Yun finally stopped speaking.
And Shangguan Xue let out a breath of turbid air, feeling extremely depressed in her heart.
This time when she was the team leader, one of the four junior brothers she brought out was dead and one was seriously injured. Two other junior brothers, including herself, were also seriously injured.
The element-devouring beast that was finally hunted was destroyed by someone...
A trace of determination flashed in her eyes, she must leave Fengwei Mountain as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, she thanked Zhuge Yun and his party again, gave pills to the two disciples, and left directly with the seriously injured disciple.
Zhuge Yun saw Shangguan Xue's plan and saw that she had no intention of asking for help, so he couldn't help but follow her.
"Xue...Junior Sister Shangguan, we are from the same sect, and it is our duty to take care of each other. You'd better let me go with you."
Shangguan Xue's expression remained unchanged, "You haven't completed your mission yet, aren't you going to kill the element-devouring beast?"
Zhuge Yun glanced at Shangguan Xue's profile and said almost without thinking.
"The element-devouring beast can kill you at any time, but now that junior sister is injured, I don't worry about you. What should I do if I encounter any danger again on the way back?"
Shangguan Xue frowned slightly, but without saying anything else, she silently let Zhuge Yun go with him.
Seeing Zhuge Yun's eagerness to stick to Senior Sister Shangguan's side, Huo Chunyan curled her lips angrily and sent a message to Xu Chunniang.
"Senior Brother Zhuge was so cold and impatient with us in the past. Now that I see Senior Sister Shangguan, he doesn't even show any respect for us and even puts aside the mission."
Xu Chunniang didn't know what to think about Zhuge Yun's approach.
In fact, due to both emotion and reason, it was right to escort Senior Sister Shangguan away from Fengcrying Mountain.
Huo Chunyan was still aggrieved, "Last time you were busy practicing and didn't make it to the mountain. He had a lot of opinions. But just now when Senior Sister Shangguan mentioned the mission, he looked disapproving."
