Chapter 604 Help
Ye Qing'an nodded: "That's fine, you can stay here from now on. This Demon Beast Forest seems quite mysterious, you can help me scout it out and find out what's inside..."
Ok?
Jiu Xiao's eyes widened. How come this is different from what he imagined?
Shouldn't Ye Qing'an comfort him and try to persuade him to stay?
Jiuxiao was filled with regret and was about to speak when he heard the sounds of magical beasts coming from outside.
Jiuxiao listened intently. Although all he heard was animal language, he understood it all: "How can there be human presence? Has someone entered the forest?"
"You all saw it just now, someone was in the sky above our Monster Forest, but suddenly disappeared, and we don't know where they went. Perhaps they quietly entered our Monster Forest?"
"A human who can't even conceal their own aura? They're asking for death..."
"Disperse and go search."
Jiuxiao quickly said, "A magical beast has discovered you."
Jiuxiao transformed into human form, raised his hand, bit his finger, and black blood flowed out.
Jiuxiao drew a formation with his blood and then directly injected it into Ye Qing'an's body: "By injecting the formation formed from my blood into your body, I can temporarily cover up the human aura on your body with my aura."
"However, this formation can only last for two hours. Every two hours, the formation needs to be reinforced."
Ye Qing'an responded, her brows furrowing.
She was spotted by the magical beasts in the forest as soon as she appeared. What about Yi Moxu?
Ye Qing'an's fingers curled slightly. Yi Moxu had been in this magical beast forest for so long, he should have a way to conceal his presence, right?
Ye Qing'an was thinking when she remembered something else: "You can understand their language?"
"Of course," Jiuxiao said smugly. "You should know, I was originally a wild magical beast soaring between heaven and earth. If it weren't for... my ignorance when I was young..."
Jiuxiao sighed deeply: "Even so, some things are etched into my bones, and of course I will not forget them."
Ye Qing'an nodded, looked him up and down for a while, and then said, "In that case, go and find out some information for me."
"If you can find out any useful information, there will be a reward."
"What reward?"
Ye Qing'an raised an eyebrow slightly: "There should be quite a few female magical beasts with sentience in this magical beast forest, right? I'll try to find some good-looking ones to marry you off to."
Jiuxiao's eyes lit up immediately: "Tell me quickly, what do you want me to find out?"
"Were they just talking about the aura of humans?"
"Yes, some magical beasts say they've smelled the scent of humans."
Ye Qing'an nodded: "Go out and talk to them. Tell them that you've been smelling a faint human scent in this forest for a long time. It's like a human scent, but it's always there, yet it feels ethereal and sometimes it's not. Ask them what's going on."
"It's that simple?"
"Well, it's that simple."
Jiuxiao nodded: "Alright, then you can wait and find me a spouse."
Jiuxiao walked to the cave entrance, then turned around and looked back: "I've already left my scent here, so you shouldn't be in any danger staying here. But I think you'd better not leave. If something happens, I won't be able to explain it."
After saying that, Jiuxiao ran away quickly.
Once Jiuxiao left, she was left alone in the cave. The cave was dark, without any lights, and she could faintly hear the sound of water dripping from the cave walls, tinkling...tinkling...
Faintly, the roars of various magical beasts could be heard outside.
Ye Qing'an hadn't been alone in this kind of environment for a long time, and her heart inexplicably tightened.
Soon, a soft, rustling sound came from the cave entrance, like something stepping on dry leaves in the forest...
Ye Qing'an tightened his grip at his sides, gathering spiritual energy in his hands.
Just as I gathered my spiritual power, I saw a beam of fire fly in from outside the cave.
fire……
Ye Qing'an raised her hand and threw a snowball.
A soft laugh came from outside the cave, and then a fireball slowly entered the cave, instantly dispelling the darkness inside. After that, Yi Moxu walked in from outside.
"Where is your spirit beast?"
"I sent him out to gather information."
Ye Qing'an recounted what had just happened, and Yi Moxu frowned slightly: "In this forest, most of the spirit beasts near the Demon's Eye have long since awakened their spiritual consciousness. Although they are not as complex as the spirit beasts that live with humans outside, most of them are extremely ferocious..."
"If your spirit beast reveals even the slightest weakness, I'm afraid it will be very difficult..."
Ye Qing'an's lips curled up: "Although that snake is a bit stupid when it comes to important matters, it's quite cunning. Don't worry, even if it's discovered and suspected, it will definitely find a way to escape."
As Ye Qing'an spoke, she turned to look at Yi Moxu: "Did you use spiritual power to search before?"
"Hmm." Yi Moxu nodded: "Among the techniques of Li Huo, there are some spells that can detect a person's aura. However, since they are spells, the detection range is limited. The person must be nearby before they can be detected."
Yi Moxu pursed his lips: "Last time I detected that lingering aura, and I detected it twice. But when I got close, I was discovered by the magical beasts in the forest, and a fierce battle ensued."
“I left some traces there back then, and this time I went there specifically to search again, but I couldn’t find that faint trace.”
Ye Qing'an frowned: "Didn't detect anything? Why? Could it be that it can just wander around on its own?"
“We can’t rule out that possibility.” Yi Moxu pursed his lips. “Of course, there’s another possibility. It’s possible that when I came to investigate, I disturbed those magical beasts, who were guarding Gu Duo’s remnant soul. Then they took that remnant soul away and placed it somewhere else.”
Ye Qing'an nodded thoughtfully: "If the demonic beast took that wisp of remnant soul away..."
"In this Demon Beast Forest, if they are afraid of being discovered or found... where would they take that remnant soul?"
Yi Moxu and Ye Qing'an exchanged a glance, and then simultaneously gave the answer: "The Devil's Eye."
Ye Qing'an pursed her lips: "If it is the Devil's Eye, then it is really troublesome. After all, everyone says that the Devil's Eye is the most dangerous place in this Demon Beast Forest, and it is probably not just a saying."
Just as Ye Qing'an finished speaking, several fierce roars suddenly came from outside.
And, Jiuxiao's panicked voice.
"Help!"
