Mu An Xiao retreated several steps and said, "Lean down a bit."
"Lean?" Feng Qi Shi repeated the word, furrowing his brow. "What are you doing?"
Mu An Xiao rolled up her sleeves, crouched down as if to start running, and said, "Hurry up, don't look back."
Hearing Mu An Xiao's mysterious command, Feng Qi Shi became extremely suspicious of her.
However, thinking about her words, he dared not disobey.
So, he bent down.
Meanwhile, Gu Xiao also understood Mu An Xiao's actions.
Just as Gu Xiao was about to remind Feng Qi Shi, he suddenly remembered Mu An Xiao's unreasonable personality. He then deliberately pretended not to have seen anything and turned his back.
Mu An Xiao smirked, rushed forward, and leaped onto Feng Qi Shi's back.
The moment Mu An Xiao jumped onto his back, Feng Qi Shi dropped to one knee, propped himself up with one hand, and said with a look of disbelief, "Mu silly, are you crazy?"
Mu An Xiao hugged Feng Qi Shi's neck tightly, showing no signs of apology. She said, "Good, I didn't fall."
Feng Qi Shi tilted his face. "Get off me."
"I won't."
"You..." Feng Qi Shi found the position uncomfortable, so he slowly stood up.
Mu An Xiao clung tightly to Feng Qi Shi's back and said, "Let's go!"
Feng Qi Shi: "....." Without further struggle, he carried Mu An Xiao on his back and said, "You'd better not say anything unpleasant, or I'll throw you off from the sky."
"You wouldn't dare."
Hearing Mu An Xiao's voice close by, Feng Qi Shi said, "Don't move around."
"I know."
Gu Xiao turned around to see Feng Qi Shi's compromise and then feigned surprise. "You guys are leaving."
Feng Qi Shi said, "Let's go together."
Gu Xiao asked, "Why?"
Feng Qi Shi tilted his head. "No reason."
"Are you afraid I'll run away?"
"If you know, then let's go."
Gu Xiao didn't want to go there because he had heard too many mysterious stories about the demon realm, and he didn't want to be involved with anything there.
However, thinking of Yang Tai, he had no choice but to compromise.
"Okay."
Thus, they left.
Feng Qi Shi flew in the air, with Mu An Xiao clinging tightly to his back. She asked, "Shen crazy, do you know the place?"
Mu An Xiao had wanted to ask earlier, but she was afraid Feng Qi Shi would go back on his word, so she didn't.
Now that the opportunity arose, she had no reservations.
"I don't."
"You don't?"
"Don't you smell the demonic aura?"
"Demonic aura," Mu An Xiao repeated, sniffed the air, and exclaimed excitedly, "The drifting demonic aura!"
Gu Xiao, flying alongside, asked, "Mu An Xiao, are you a dog?"
"It's none of your business," Mu An Xiao glanced at Gu Xiao.
Gu Xiao pouted and continued flying.
Not long after, they landed.
However, due to the extremely eerie atmosphere around them, Mu An Xiao had no intention of getting off Feng Qi Shi's back.
Instead, she looked very cautiously at the forest, enveloped in demonic aura, appearing very gloomy and dark. She said, "Shen crazy, why is it so cold here?" She hugged Feng Qi Shi's neck tightly.
Feng Qi Shi said, "The demonic aura varies from place to place. The demonic aura here is chilling. Speaking of which," he said while looking around, "Can you get down now!"
Hearing this, Mu An Xiao looked down at the dark ground. Hearing the caws of crows and the cries of various monsters around them, she shook her head. "No, if I get down, my spiritual energy will definitely be depleted."
"Your spiritual energy? Haven't you considered mine?"
"It's different. You have Shen Yan's body and high-level spiritual energy, so you'll be fine," Mu An Xiao said, reaching out a hand to pat Feng Qi Shi's shoulder.
In Mu An Xiao's impression, Shen Yan was an extremely powerful "immortal cultivator."
She remembered that in the past, when they went to a cold and bleak place to catch monsters, the other monsters and deities who accompanied them left before the end.
Only Shen Yan was completely fine. At that time, she asked Shen Yan why he was unaffected, and Shen Yan told her it was because he was an immortal cultivator, which made him powerful.
He also said that such places would not cause him any harm.
At that time, Mu An Xiao was carried by Shen Yan all the way like this, and she was completely fine, relying on the warmth from Shen Yan's body.
But in the end... Shen Yan still resorted to his usual bad habit, asking Mu An Xiao to protect him.
As a result, Mu An Xiao was seriously injured.
At that time, she thought she was finished. She also thought that if she died, she would become a vengeful spirit and follow Shen Yan, frightening him every day until he went insane.
Who would have thought that Shen Yan still saved her?
After that incident, she vowed that if such a thing happened again, she would stick to him like glue. Even if he asked her to get down, she wouldn't.
She thought Feng Qi Shi must also remember this incident.
"I'm not getting down!" she emphasized.
As expected, Feng Qi Shi laughed when he heard Mu An Xiao say this. "You still remember?"
"I remember, and I will always remember."
Feng Qi Shi deeply remembered all the experiences he had with Mu An Xiao in his previous life. During those fifty years, he often reminisced about the past.
Sometimes, he had already decided to forgive Mu An Xiao, but in the end... because of the wolf demon, he gave up.
Thus, he harbored baseless hatred for Mu An Xiao for a full fifty years, only seeing everything clearly after he died.
It was indeed laughable!
"....." Feng Qi Shi only smiled without speaking.
Mu An Xiao asked, "Why aren't you talking?"
Feng Qi Shi snapped back to attention and was about to speak when a gust of cold wind suddenly brushed past his ear.
Immediately, his eyes widened, and he quickly turned around with Mu An Xiao on his back, dodging a stream of deep blue light that shot towards him.
Gu Xiao was startled.
Mu An Xiao hugged Feng Qi Shi's neck tighter and asked, "What is it?"
"It's not human."
"I know it's not human," Mu An Xiao pressed her face tightly against Feng Qi Shi's shoulder and asked, "Are monsters here?"
"Monsters don't use sorcery. It's the Blue-Robed Demon."
The Blue-Robed Demon? Mu An Xiao had always thought that the first scene she would witness upon arriving here would be Piaoo fighting the Blue-Robed Demon.
Who would have thought that the Blue-Robed Demon would appear in such a manner? This made her feel extremely surprised.
"Can you defeat him?"
"If I wasn't carrying you, yes."
However, Mu An Xiao did not want to get off Feng Qi Shi's back.
So, she gave a wry smile. "I believe you can do it even with me on your back."
"He's very good at changing direction, and he's targeting me," Feng Qi Shi's eyes darted around. "Maybe he'll suddenly appear from behind, and then..."
"I'm getting down," Mu An Xiao said, quickly straightening up.
Feng Qi Shi bent down and gently set Mu An Xiao down.
Then, Mu An Xiao quickly retreated, hiding behind a tree with large dark green leaves, which was filled with dense Yin energy. She said, "You go find him, I'll wait for you."
