"What a pity?" Feng Qishi asked with a frown.
"Don't you like her? You let her go like this, you..."
"Master, let's go back." Feng Qishi deliberately avoided Xu Lanyan's words and spoke to the old gentleman.
The old gentleman nodded and said, "Let's go."
"Okay." Feng Qishi responded, then glanced back in the direction Mu Anxiao had left and said, "Master, I have something else to do. You go back first."
"Alright." The old gentleman was surprised that Feng Qishi was so cooperative and recognized him. He left without thinking anything else.
Afterward, Feng Qishi looked at Xu Lanyan and said, "Do me a favor."
"What favor?" Xu Lanyan asked.
Feng Qishi took out a pill he had treasured for a long time from his怀 and handed it to Xu Lanyan, saying, "Give this to Mu Anxiao to eat."
"What is this?" Xu Lanyan took the pill and asked.
Feng Qishi looked around and said, "If she acts rashly like this, she will be targeted by all sorts of monsters. If you give her this to eat, a certain scent on her will be masked."
"This pill," Xu Lanyan smelled the earthy-scented pill and said, "seems like it can't be eaten anymore."
"How is that possible?" Feng Qishi snatched the pill back and said.
"You've kept this for decades, and besides, you no longer have immortal techniques these past few decades, naturally..."
"Immortal techniques don't sound good; call it spiritual energy," Feng Qishi corrected.
Xu Lanyan was speechless for a moment, then said, "You also don't have spiritual energy anymore. This medicine has lost the protection of spiritual energy, so naturally, it won't work."
"Then, all the immortal medicines I have are useless," Feng Qishi said.
"You could say that," Xu Lanyan nodded.
"Then I'll entrust Mu Anxiao to you," Feng Qishi said, patting Xu Lanyan on the shoulder.
Xu Lanyan's mouth twitched: "Why don't you go yourself?"
"In my previous life, you knew my attitude towards her. She already hated me. If I pester her again at this time, she'll probably be annoyed to death. But you're different. Didn't you just put your cloak on her..."
"Don't mention just now; she took it off." Xu Lanyan interrupted, then pinched his fingers and said, "I can't find her."
"How can that be?" Feng Qishi said, "She just left."
"I don't know." Xu Lanyan shook his head.
"She's made up her mind," Feng Qishi said with a frown.
"Let's not talk about her resolve. When do you plan to tell her that you have memories?" Xu Lanyan asked.
Feng Qishi yawned and said, "I don't know. I'll wait for the right time. When I become stronger, I'll go find her. I don't believe I can't find her." After saying that, he turned and flew away.
Xu Lanyan looked in the direction Feng Qishi flew and sighed, "This guy is really different from before!" As he spoke, he followed Feng Qishi.
Mu Anxiao stopped in the middle of the forest, her eyes slanted, and she suddenly turned to look at the vine spirit, saying, "I knew you wouldn't run far."
"In the future, let's see who will help you," the vine spirit suddenly said.
Mu Anxiao looked at the chain floating before her eyes, narrowed her eyes, and quickly reached out to grab it, but it dodged.
"Mu Anxiao, I've shielded all your immortal energy. No god or immortal can find you. You just wait to die," the vine spirit said, laughing heartily.
"You..." As soon as Mu Anxiao uttered a word, the vine spirit vanished instantly, and several monsters walked out from the depths of the forest.
"Hello."
Hearing the sound, Mu Anxiao looked at the dog-headed monster staring at her and greeting her in surprise, saying, "Who are you?"
"My elder brother was subdued by you," the dog-headed monster said, and suddenly flung a dark gray light at Mu Anxiao.
Mu Anxiao hurriedly dodged and said, "What do you want?"
"The vine spirit just now said that your body is very useful. I've decided that I'm going to offer your body to my elder brother. You die!" Saying that, the dog-headed monster charged at Mu Anxiao.
Mu Anxiao's eyes widened, and she quickly turned and ran.
After running for who knows how long, Mu Anxiao's feet fell into emptiness, and she fell into a cave.
The next second, the dog-headed monster fell from the sky and stood beside the cave, which was blocked by leaves and dead branches. It sniffed the air and said, "Damn it, ran fast." After saying that, it flew away with a few of its subordinates.
At the bottom of the cave, Mu Anxiao lay painfully in the wet mud, her skirt instantly soaked by the muddy water.
"Who are you?" As the girl's voice sounded, a dim yellow light lit up around.
Mu Anxiao looked at the rabbit in front of her with the faint light and said, "It's you speaking."
"I am a rabbit spirit. This is where I cultivate," the rabbit spirit said faintly.
Mu Anxiao couldn't be bothered to sit up, pulled her hand out of the mud, and asked, "Can you send me up?"
"You have no spiritual energy in your body, but your body is an immortal body. If I eat you," the rabbit spirit smiled, "I can immediately transform into human form?"
The moment the rabbit spirit said this, Mu Anxiao realized her danger.
"No need, I guess." She dragged her body, which was deeply stuck in the mud, and shuffled backward unsteadily, saying.
"This cave is very deep. You can't escape like this," the rabbit spirit still smiled sweetly.
However, the sweeter the rabbit spirit smiled, the more threatening it was to Mu Anxiao. So, she instinctively chuckled foolishly: "Heh heh, heh heh heh."
"What are you laughing at?" The rabbit spirit followed suit and withdrew the smile from her face.
"I heh heh heh..." Mu Anxiao kept chuckling foolishly and said, "You're a rabbit, and you're so beautiful. When you become human, you'll definitely be even more beautiful."
"I've tried many ways but couldn't achieve human form," the rabbit spirit said disappointedly.
"I know how painful it is when you've put in so much effort and gained nothing, but," Mu Anxiao stood up unsteadily, leaning on the not-so-wet mud wall beside her, and said, "If you eat me, you'll be a sinful demon. Then, you'll have to go to hell."
"I've made many efforts, and none of them worked. Only this way," the rabbit spirit looked up at Mu Anxiao, who appeared tall in her eyes, and smiled sweetly again, "can I become a girl, a real girl. This way, I can wear a lot of beautiful clothes. This way, I won't be bullied. I won't have to hide here all day. As long as I become human, everything will be easy."
"Being human is also very tiring," Mu Anxiao said, leaning tightly against the mud wall.
The rabbit spirit took a step closer to Mu Anxiao and said, "To be honest, I hate eating meat the most, but to become human, I'm willing to eat it." Saying that, she bit Mu Anxiao's shoe.
Mu Anxiao looked at the back of the rabbit spirit's head with no feeling and asked, "Does it taste good?"
