Qi Xuanxuan’s wooden face did not show any superfluous emotion.
It was rather the little fatty who yelped in surprise, “Oh my f*cking god! Isn’t this cheating, Qiaoqiao? Haha, but I like it!”
“That Mentor whatshisname thought that you would be at your wit’s end once he sealed off your phoenix. How would he have known, haha! That you have a squirrel with you too!” The fatty’s voice suddenly came to a halt when he got to this point. He wrinkled his brow and said, “How come I remember that you seemed to have previously summoned a large cyan bird before the ancient bloodfire phoenix?”
“She also has a little white snake.” Qi Xuanxuan uttered woodenly as she continued to maintain her “composure.”
Qiao Mu cast them a glance. “Break out while this pack of red foxes still hasn’t encircled us!”
Everyone gave a shout in response and ran like mad, maneuvering up and down around those craggy and oddly-shaped rocks. Soon, they left that pack of red foxes in the dust.
Originally, the foxes were already thinking of retreat after the little fat squirrel killed their leader in one smack of its tail. They immediately lost interest in pursuing once they saw how fast these people were fleeing.
A portion of them put on an act and chased them for several hundred kilometers before beating a retreat. They gave several barks before turning tail and running away.
Qi Xuanxuan heaved a sigh of relief. “These red fanged foxes are quite swift.”
They had abruptly swarmed out from behind the rocks. If not for the fact that their speed wasn’t bad either, this pack of beasts would have surrounded them by now.
After getting chased by these foxes, they had covered a distance of several hundred kilometers.
Once those fanged foxes made themselves scarce, the little fatty anxiously sought out a rock to sit down on. He panted heavily and exclaimed, “Oh my goodness, I’m so d*mn tired.”
Qiao Mu cast him a glance before turning to look far away at the fox carcasses strewn along the path they had taken.
“I’ll be doing some cleaning up.”
The mission this mentor assigned them was to hunt 10 level-two spiritual beasts. At their current cultivation, this was considered a challenging mission.
Even though these foxes were only level-12 and level-13 mystic beasts, Qiao Mu adhered to her mindset of minimizing waste and planned to see whether these fox carcasses contained any cores.
At the same time.
The black, 17-level Punishment Tower stood tall within an unknown dimension while enveloped in a layer of scorching red flames.
As this dimension drifted slowly inside the boundaries of the Lower Star Domain, this 17-level Punishment Tower would occasionally flash with light.
Every flash signified the opening of the drifting dimensional gate, which would occasionally suck in one or two poor devils.
On the 13th level, a certain peach blossom was lazily lying on a round large bed cushioned with velvet. He held a cup of wine in one hand and fruit in the other as he bemoaned, “These illusory things are illusions after all! There is no flavor in eating them. So stingy!”
“Oh please, don’t be choosy when you have something to eat. At least you can still eat this stuff. Yet look at me??”
Across from the round large bed was a row of chains fixed to the wall. A young man whose hands were both cuffed to the chains rolled his eyes uncontrollably as he groaned, “I’ve been hanging from this wall for a full ten years, bro!”
“Yet how long has it been since you came in here! You’re even getting fed and entertained! Like I said, this Heavenly Law varies its treatment according to the individual! It’s totally a bootlicker!”
As soon as that young man finished his sentence, a thunderbolt struck him on the head and burnt his skin into a crisp!
