Chapter 143
Yu Xi had not forgotten the most important purpose of their coming to the secret realm, and hurriedly said:
"Brother, getting Blazing Rainbow Dress is the most important thing. Your body—"
Before he could finish his words, Zhong Xian tapped his head lightly, and he swallowed the rest of his words back.
Zhong Xian squinted his eyes lazily and said, "Xiao Xi'er, you already know that mirage monsters are very dangerous. How could the people from the Immortal Sect not have thought of this?"
Yu Xi's mind worked quickly, and as soon as Zhong Xian mentioned it, she immediately understood what it meant.
No one wants to enter the illusion again.
I'm afraid that among the monks who have left the illusion now, more are looking for mirage monsters than for treasures.
For cultivators, once a powerful monster like the Mirage Demon is subdued, it becomes an excellent weapon.
Seeing that Yu Xi seemed to be lost in thought and no longer wanted to chase him away, Zhong Xian knew that she must have understood what he meant.
He curved his eyes in pleasure and rubbed Yu Xi's furry head lovingly.
Xiao Xi'er is indeed very smart! You can tell without even looking that she takes after him!
Looking at Jizhi again, he didn't understand what they were saying for a long time, and was still wondering why eating wild boars couldn't protect his sister.
Zhong Xian didn't want Yu Xi to continue worrying, so he continued to comfort her:
"Although Su Xianyun is insidious, petty, vindictive, cruel, and vicious... he still has some strength. The fact that he was able to send his puppets to our side shows that he has the confidence to protect Chihuo Nishang."
Yu Xi was surprised: "Third Senior Brother's puppet is with us?"
"He's following us." Zhong Xian said calmly, not quite understanding what Su Xianyun was doing.
According to his understanding, Su Xianyun should have poisoned him to death while he was unconscious.
Now he sent two puppets over, which neither attacked them nor approached them, but helped them deal with the monks from a distance. Their actions were strange and totally unlike Su Xianyun's style of action.
But no matter what, as long as Su Xianyun doesn't hurt Yu Xi, he doesn't mind keeping Su Xianyun alive.
Seeing Yu Xi still blinking at him, he felt something in his heart and buried his head in Yu Xi's soft ears and kissed them several times before he was satisfied.
There is definitely no one in this world who can last more than three seconds under Xiao Xier's gaze! His heart is about to melt!
"Xiao Xi'er has already protected us when we entered the illusion, so now it's our turn to protect Xiao Xi'er, right?"
He hugged Yu Xi happily, ignoring everything except Yu Xi. "So, Xiao Xi'er, don't worry about anything. Worrying too much is not good for your health. I, your brother, am very strong!"
[If Xiao Xi'er keeps worrying about Su Xianyun, I'll strangle this culprit, Su Xianyun, to death! Damn you bastard!]
[And Jizhi! Let's strangle him together! I wonder who else can snatch Xiao Xi'er from me, hahaha! Xiao Xi'er is mine!]
Yu Xi choked.
She trusted Zhong Xian unconditionally. No matter what, she felt much more at ease after hearing what Zhong Xian said.
Without thinking too much, he just focused on giving Zhong Xian directions.
Because the mirage monster was injured, the effect of the illusion was weakened a lot. Some monks with good cultivation were lucky enough to struggle out of the illusion.
Some of them went to help other companions leave the illusion, while others looked around for the location of the mirage.
Therefore, Zhong Xian met many monks on the way to the cave.
However, before these poor monks could even take action, their heads were chopped off by the Burning Sword.
Now after Zhong Xian cut off the person's head, he had to stop to confirm whether the person was really dead.
Jizhi also wanted to take action, but he never found the opportunity.
Seeing that all the prestige he had gained along the way had been snatched away by Zhong Xian, he hurriedly approached Yu Xi and said pitifully, "Sister, how long will it take for me to get this thing in my hand?"
He can't tear anyone apart with this in his hand!
Yu Xi had been worried about Zhong Xian and the others before, and only now did he remember that he had forgotten about this.
She quickly pulled Jizhi's hand over and let Zhongxian see the talisman paper in Jizhi's hand:
"By the way, brother, take a look at this first. Someone wants to put this strange talisman paper on you, saying it's a mark."
Zhong Xian was just checking whether the body on the ground was dead or not, but he didn't pay much attention when he looked at Ji Zhi's hand.
But when he saw clearly what was in Jizhi's hand, his brows frowned obviously, and his face, which had originally had a slight smile on it, instantly turned cold.
A black talisman paper, only the size of a fingernail, was resting in Jizhi's palm. The lines on the talisman paper were crowded together as they became smaller, forming a disturbing pattern.
"Where did you get this?"
His voice was a little deeper and sounded a little creepy.
Yu Xi was about to speak when Ji Zhi suddenly reached out and tried to grab her away anxiously:
"Sister, it's dangerous. Zhong Xian wants to kill you!"
He sensed an extremely dangerous aura from Zhong Xian!
Naturally, I didn’t get it.
Zhong Xian picked up the talisman paper from Ji Zhi's hand and kicked Ji Zhi away impatiently.
Yu Xi also quickly comforted Ji Zhi and said, "Second brother, I won't hurt me."
Although she also noticed that Zhong Xian was in a bad mood, she was still certain that Zhong Xian would not hurt her.
Although his sister spoke, Ji Zhi was still worried and quietly touched Yu Xi's side. If Zhong Xian wanted to hurt his sister, he would immediately take his sister away!
Yu Xi explained to Zhong Xian, "This talisman paper was obtained from two monks, but they are dead. Brother, do you know what this is?"
"It's a ghost."
"Guiyin?"
Zhong Xian nodded. After the thumb-sized talisman paper in his hand absorbed the ghost energy from him, a black and sticky substance began to wriggle at the edge, as if something dangerous was trying to struggle out.
However, just as this thing appeared in its initial form, it suddenly stopped, made a crisp sound in its distorted form, and disappeared in a wisp of black smoke.
"People who are marked by ghosts will be haunted by the evil spirits of those who died unjustly. Therefore, as long as a live bait is placed for marking, a large number of evil spirits can be captured quickly, which is a good thing for ghost hunters."
He paused, his voice lowered a bit, and he murmured as if talking to himself:
"But I should have killed everyone who could create the ghost attraction. I clearly wiped out the entire family of these bastards. I clearly killed them all... Strange, very strange."
Seeing the spell in Zhong Xian's eyes begin to spread again, and the ghost energy on the verge of losing control, Yu Xi's voice suddenly rose several degrees: "Brother!"
Her voice made Zhong Xian's eyes clearer. He quickly fluttered his eyelids twice, looked up, and found that Yu Xi was looking at him worriedly.
He exhaled and quickly smiled, "I'm fine, I just thought of some weird things."
As he spoke, the spell in his hand suddenly disappeared, as if it had disappeared into his body.
Yu Xi didn't expect Zhong Xian to actually bury the ghost guide in his body. He hurriedly looked at Zhong Xian's hand, anxiously wanting to take out the talisman. "It can't be used! Won't being marked by the ghost guide mean you'll be haunted by evil spirits?"
Zhong Xian quickly patted her back and said soothingly:
"It's okay. I've already dealt with the trigger in the talisman. Now the ghost trigger won't hurt me in any way. It will only leave a mark on my body that the caster can see. I want to see who else can use this technique."
As he spoke, he continued to move towards the cave, but his next words were obviously much less.
Yu Xi listened to Zhong Xian's inner voice and found that he had been repeating one sentence in his heart:
[…They should have been killed.]
