Who Dared Commit Robbery?
Upon hearing his question, Di Tian raised an eyebrow. "You want to explore another continent?"
"I have that idea, but not now." Yu Mingxiao chuckled. "Thank you for your hospitality; I should take my leave now."
For the past two days, Di Tian has been bringing him food, including all kinds of Soul Beast and special fruits, so that he can eat his fill. Gu Yuena, on the other hand, rarely shows up.
Are you leaving?
Di Tian nodded slightly and said in a deep voice, "I'll go and call the master."
Yu Mingxiao chuckled, "Go on, I also need to say goodbye to Na'er and Bi Ji."
Upon hearing Yu Mingxiao mention Bi Ji, Di Tian's expression became slightly unnatural, but he quickly concealed it and turned to leave.
Yu Mingxiao blinked, went to the room in the small space at the bottom of the lake, and found Bi Ji. "I'm leaving."
Bi Ji's expression changed slightly. After a moment of silence, she took out a Reverse Scale, the very one that had undergone a change after being handled by Yu Mingxiao. "I know I can't stop you from leaving. You keep this. The master hasn't taken Reverse Scale back."
"Reverse Scale..." Yu Mingxiao reached out and took the scale. "Then I'll accept it. Goodbye."
Bi Ji could not disobey Gu Yuena's orders, nor could he force her to leave.
Moreover, Gu Yuena was also going along, and with Bi Ji by her side, the atmosphere felt strange; it just didn't seem appropriate.
With that in mind, he ultimately decided not to invite her to come along.
"Goodbye." Bi Ji smiled gently, her eyes tender.
Yu Mingxiao turned and walked out of the room. He first said goodbye to Na'er, and under her reluctant gaze, he met up with Gu Yuena was already waiting at the entrance of the space.
The two walked out of the spatial rift side by side and landed on the shore of the Lake of Life.
Yu Mingxiao glanced at the gradually disappearing spatial rift, a hint of envy flashing in his eyes. This ability to tear through space was indeed convenient; one could quickly arrive wherever one wanted.
Unfortunately, to unleash this ability, one must at least have a basic grasp of the Laws of space, or possess a rare Soul Skill that allows for space travel.
With his current cultivation level, he can only sense the existence of Laws.
"Let's go," Gu Yuena said softly.
"Alright, let's leave the Star Dou Great Forest."
Yu Mingxiao noticed that she was even more eager than he was, and couldn't help but chuckle, asking, "By the way, have you ever been to the human world?"
"No." Gu Yuena's eyes flickered slightly, and she shook her head.
"I see. I think you'd better pretend. The way you look..." Yu Mingxiao raised an eyebrow, hesitating to speak.
"What's wrong with my appearance?" Gu Yuena pressed.
Yu Mingxiao said, "Your appearance is too stunning; it might attract unnecessary trouble."
The social atmosphere of this era was extremely chaotic. Street thugs were everywhere, and there were quite a few rogue Soul Master. When they saw a beautiful woman, they would often go up and harass her, and some would even directly touch her inappropriately.
This chaotic situation did not improve much in the decades that followed.
Two of the Shrek Seven Devils are ladybugs.
Gu Yuena suddenly realized, and said with a sweet smile, "Isn't that what you're here for? If I get into trouble, you'll protect me, right?"
Yu Mingxiao was speechless for a moment, "Something's not right with you..."
Gu Yuena realized that her tone was indeed a bit unusual, her pretty face flushed, and she said no more.
However, she still showed no intention of pretending, as if she genuinely intended for Yu Mingxiao to be her protector...
The two left the Star Dou Great Forest in the opposite direction.
The Star Dou Great Forest has a complex terrain, and ordinary people can easily get lost, but for Yu Mingxiao, finding a way out is naturally not a problem.
Having witnessed what had just happened, Gu Yuena said nothing more and simply followed quietly behind Yu Mingxiao.
Yu Mingxiao wasn't good at initiating conversations, and since the two weren't very familiar with each other, the atmosphere became awkwardly silent.
until...
Yu Mingxiao's expression was strange. "There's movement to our left front. It looks like a Soul Beast is running this way!"
Standing right next to him was the ruler of Soul Beast. Just who was this ignorant Soul Beast, daring to defy its superior?!
"Court death!"
Gu Yuena frowned slightly, raised her hand and unleashed a wind blade, cleaving through the bushes and slashing towards the direction from which the sound came!
"Pfft--"
The sound of bodily fluids gushing out rang out...
Yu Mingxiao looked in the direction Gu Yuena had made her move.
The thicket had been cleared away, and the view suddenly opened up.
In addition, his eyesight was far superior to that of ordinary people, and he could see at a glance that a ten-thousand-year- Man Faced Demon Spider had been cut in two, its carapace shattered and purple-green fluid gushing out.
Besides displaying a Soul Ring, this Man Faced Demon Spider also had a gleaming bone embedded in its body.
"Spirit Bone ..." Yu Mingxiao's eyes lit up slightly, and he walked straight over.
Gu Yuena raised an eyebrow and followed behind him casually.
The Man Faced Demon Spider, a type of Soul Beast, is inherently bloodthirsty, taking pleasure in devouring life, and has no sense of hierarchy. She loathed it from the bottom of her heart, so she killed it with a single blow.
Yu Mingxiao walked to the corpse of the demon spider, ignoring the highly toxic bodily fluids, and directly dug out the Spirit Bone from its body.
The power of light swept through, instantly evaporating the toxins on the Spirit Bone from the intense heat.
It was actually a ten-thousand-year- Torso Soul Bone... Yu Mingxiao chuckled inwardly, feeling that Spirit Bone weren't so rare after all, now that they were in his possession.
Spirit Bone have an extremely low drop rate, but he seems to get them very easily.
"What do you want this Spirit Bone for? It shouldn't be of much use to you, right?" Gu Yuena said.
Yu Mingxiao laughed and said, "I also have subordinates. If I don't need them myself, I can reward them."
"If all else fails, I'll just keep it as a keepsake, or I can take it back to my sect."
Gu Yuena was about to speak when her eyes flickered slightly, and she said calmly, "Someone is coming."
Yu Mingxiao's expression darkened slightly, and he turned his gaze in a certain direction, where he saw an uninvited guest swiftly emerge from the woods.
It was a tall, thin middle-aged man holding a Dragon Head Cane that was over four meters long and was made of bright silver. The dragon head on the cane was lifelike and looked extremely dazzling.
"No, impossible! How could Tianxiang's Man Faced Demon Spider have been killed?!"
His gaze first fell on the Man Faced Demon Spider that had split in two, and his expression changed drastically. Then he looked at Yu Mingxiao and Gu Yuena.
Seeing that the former had a Spirit Bone in his hand, a greedy look instantly flashed in his eyes. "Spirit Bone! There's actually Spirit Bone! Could it have fallen from this Man Faced Demon Spider?"
Yu Mingxiao's expression remained calm as he slowly put away the Spirit Bone, saying indifferently, "This Spirit Bone is our spoils of war."
The middle-aged man's face darkened, and he said coldly, "Young man, you killed my Man Faced Demon Spider, and I haven't settled accounts with you yet!"
"If you know what's good for you, hand over the Spirit Bone. This treasure is not something you deserve to possess!"
"If you obediently hand over the Spirit Bone, I might be able to show leniency and spare your life."
