As an observer, Chen Changming witnessed the entire battle.
Two cultivators at the first level of Foundation Establishment joined forces to kill a Level 2 Demonic Beast.
"According to the woman in red, this enormous demonic wolf was merely a transformed Green Wolf. It seems it was infected by the Demonic Qi in the Demonic Qi Well, which is why it evolved into Level 2 Demonic Beast..."
Chen Changming's eyes flickered as he recalled their conversation.
The black aura above the wolf's head was undoubtedly Demonic Qi.
An ordinary Green Wolf can evolve into Level 2 Demonic Beast under the influence of Demonic Qi; this Demonic Qi is indeed terrifying.
In terms of combat strength, this Level 2 Demonic Beast beast, the Azure Green Wolf, is considerably weaker than the Level 2 Demonic Beast, the Iron-Armored Wolf.
After all, the Iron-Armored Wolf has innate supernatural Divine Ability, while the Green Wolf outside the Ancient Temple does not seem to have Divine Ability.
Seeing that the rain outside was still heavy, the woman in red hesitated for a moment, then retreated back to the fire.
"Fellow Daoist, did I scare you just now?"
Seeing Chen Changming's somewhat frightened expression, the woman in red smiled.
Chen Changming took a deep breath, composed himself, and earnestly asked, "Senior, what's the deal with this Green Wolf? Could you please explain?"
"You're not from the Chu Kingdom, are you?"
The man in white suddenly interrupted, his eyes flashing with a slightly sharp glint.
"Yes, senior, we fled from the Yue Kingdom..." Chen Changming said sincerely.
The word "fleeing" seemed to touch a nerve with the woman in red. Her gaze softened, and she sighed, saying, "I too fled from the Yan Kingdom to the Chu Kingdom. We are truly fellow sufferers..."
Yan Kingdom?
Chen Changming felt a chill run down his spine, instinctively remembering that there was another Ouyang Family, in the Yan Kingdom.
This woman in red looks so much like Ouyang Hong, could she also be a member of the Ouyang Family?
"Fellow Daoist, we are quite destined to meet. I will tell you the truth: the Chu Kingdom is not peaceful right now, it is probably even more chaotic than your Yue Kingdom."
The woman in red looked at Chen Changming, her expression turning serious. "A Demonic Qi Well has appeared in the Chu Kingdom, causing severe pollution within a radius of tens of thousands of miles. Any living being that comes into contact with it will be corrupted by demonic energy, and then it will devour other living beings to increase its strength."
"I see."
Chen Changming suddenly realized that such a serious disaster had occurred in the Chu Kingdom.
but.
Now that he has come to the Chu Kingdom, he will certainly not turn back.
The best way is to go through the Chu Kingdom and then directly to the Yan Kingdom.
The woman in red added, "You must also be careful. These days, mutated Demon Beast are attacking everywhere, making it difficult to defend against them..."
"Thank you for reminding me, senior."
Chen Changming clasped his hands in gratitude and said.
Judging from the current situation, the woman in red does not seem to have any malicious intentions, nor does she seem to be using her cultivation level to rob me.
He felt a certain degree of goodwill towards the wolf he had just attacked, as the wolf hadn't even asked him to help.
"Cough cough..."
The woman in red suddenly coughed. She covered her mouth with her hand and coughed more than a dozen times before stopping. When she removed her hand, Chen Changming saw some greenish blood in her palm.
This is a sign of poisoning.
"Take another Detoxification Pill pill..."
The man in white was very concerned and immediately handed over an Detoxification Pill.
"This Detoxification Pill can only suppress the poison temporarily; if we want to truly detoxify, we need to think of another way."
The woman in red smiled bitterly.
She swallowed the Detoxification Pill, and her cough stopped after a while.
Chen Changming's eyes flickered.
The woman in red did indeed have poisonous wounds; no wonder she looked so unwell.
His Detoxification Art has been enhanced several times; it's uncertain whether it can cure the woman in red.
Although he felt an urge, Chen Changming remained silent.
He and the woman in red were strangers who had just met, and it wasn't worth making a move rashly. If he failed to detoxify her, he might incur her resentment, or even the man in white might hold a grudge against him and attack him.
Chen Changming could also tell that the man in white seemed to be very fond of the woman in red, and the two had a very tacit understanding, like a pair of dao companion.
"Let's go..."
Glancing at the raging storm outside, the woman in red suddenly showed a look of worry.
"The wind and rain are too strong; perhaps we should rest for a while longer."
The man in white said with great concern.
I'm worried...
The woman in red hesitated, gazing at the lightning flashing across the dark night sky, her worry deepening.
Chen Changming frowned slightly.
When the man in white was very vigilant earlier, he sensed that the two were on guard against something. Now that the woman in red was in a hurry to leave, he guessed that someone was probably chasing them.
beep!
A soft sound suddenly came from the dilapidated threshold of the Ancient Temple, and a black lotus flower that had suddenly appeared landed on it.
This black lotus is made of a black metal, only about the size of a bowl, and is completely black without any luster.
" Black Lotus Sect!"
The woman in red gritted her teeth, and a small blue flag appeared in her hand again.
The man in white appeared to be facing a formidable enemy, a sword light swirling above his head.
" Ouyang Qian, you're really good at escaping..."
A series of eerie, grotesque laughs drifted in from afar.
Four men in black robes silently descended upon the entrance of the Ancient Temple, emerging from the thick rain.
All four men had a black lotus mark between their eyebrows.
" Ouyang Qian?"
Upon hearing this name, Chen Changming was immediately startled.
This woman in red came from the Yan Kingdom. She looked remarkably like Ouyang Hong, and her name was Ouyang Qian.
This woman must have a very deep blood relationship with Ouyang Hong.
A man in black robes looked at Chen Changming and said with a slightly mocking smile, "You even brought backup?"
They were just passersby.
Ouyang Qian shook her head, gritted her teeth, and said, "Your target is me!"
Yes, it's you.
The man in black robes gently raised his hand, a black lotus spinning in his palm. He smiled softly, " Ouyang Qian, you've been poisoned and can no longer activate your family's ancestral Talisman Treasure, can you? If you surrender now, I can take you to the Holy Mother to plead for you, and you can become her personal maid."
"Dream!"
The man in white cursed angrily and couldn't help but strike first.
A sword light ripped through the void, slashing fiercely towards the man in black robes.
The man in black robes waved his hand lightly, and the black lotus in his palm flew out.
In an instant.
The black lotus, the size of a millstone, radiates layers of black light.
Bang!
The sword light landed on it, but was actually bounced back.
However, the Black Lotus was also teetering on the brink of collapse.
At this moment, Ouyang Qian also took action. With a wave of the small blue flag in her hand, four streams of water surged out, like four water dragons, rushing towards the four men in black robes.
The other three men in black robes also simultaneously summoned a black lotus flower.
Four black lotus flowers bloomed with light, completely sealing off the void. The flowing water dragon returned empty-handed, and the Flying Sword could not break through it.
Seeing this, Ouyang Qian's expression became resolute.
Snap!
Ouyang Qian slapped her forehead, and a small square seal flew out.
She spat out a mouthful of blood onto the small square seal.
Buzz!
The small seal suddenly shone brightly, releasing a terrifying aura of destruction.
