Chapter 122 Looking for the Totem Beast

.........

"Do you believe what he said?"

Walking on the path in the mountains, Jiang Shaoxu looked at Lu Xia beside him.

"Believe, because I believe this kind of thing will really happen."

Lu Xia nodded. The power of the totem beast was so powerful that he didn't believe that the big shots wouldn't spy on him.

Su Lu in the original work is the best example. How much manpower and material resources he used for the Moon Moth Phoenix, wasn't it just for the power of the totem beast?
"...Did they betray their patron saint so easily?"

Jiang Shaoxu was silent.

"The magic link track spread from the Holy City, people's cultivation speed has made a qualitative leap, people have become stronger, and they are tired of the days of being protected, and then suddenly someone comes and tells them that they can help them drive away the totem beast..."

After saying this, Lu Xia closed his mouth and stopped talking.

"Ah."

Jiang Shaoxu's expression was also a little complicated.

Unexpectedly, in the end, the Totem Beast's biggest enemy turned out to be the humans it protected...

"Okay, don't think about this. We are about to enter the restricted area of ​​the Worm Valley mentioned by the old village chief. Be careful and don't be targeted by monsters."

After looking at the map in his hand, Lu Xia raised his head and murmured.

"okay."

Jiang Shaoxu nodded and became more energetic.

Since Biao is still around here, it means they still have room for redemption!

.........

Imperial City Magic Association, a man in uniform hurried into a retro Chinese office.

In the office, a man in formal military uniform was sitting at his desk, looking down at the documents in his hand. On his chest was a military medal of the leader.

"Report to the army leader, there is news from Miss."

The man in uniform quickly performed a military salute and reported respectfully.

The man in military uniform had black hair and a black beard. He turned his head and looked at the man in uniform.

"Tell me, how is she now?"

Jiang Jiayi smiled, without any airs that a military leader should have.

"Miss followed Lu Xia to the Yunnan Worm Valley to look for traces of the totem beast Biao."

The man said with a serious face.

"Well, it's pretty good, but Worm Valley, I remember that's where Su Lu intervened, right?"

Jiang Jiayi put down the document in his hand and muttered something.

"Yes, Chief."

The man nodded. Su Lu had indeed intervened there a few years ago.

"Are you going to hand it over to them?" the man in uniform asked after testing for a while.

"Well, your suggestion is good. That Lu Xia himself has a close relationship with the totem black snake, and now he has encountered the matter of the totem beast that Su Lu is staring at. Maybe if he is asked to deal with the totem matter, there will be something unexpected. As for Jiang Shaoxu... let her be as long as she is happy."

Jiang Jiayi thought for a while and sighed helplessly.

"Leave it to him. Even though it's a bit far-fetched, I believe the two of them will surprise us in this matter."

"Some people in the military region have predicted that the coastline crisis will cause huge damage to our coast. If we can really awaken those ancient totem beasts, our land can also be protected."

"Let them be, they can protect themselves enough anyway, is there anything else?"

Jiang Jiayi shook his head and asked.

"Well...there is indeed one more thing."

The man hesitated for a moment and then spoke.

"Go ahead."

Jiang Jiayi waved his hand indifferently.

"...Something between the young lady and that Lu Xia."

The man said slowly. "Huh? What did you say? What's going on between the two of them?"

Jiang Jiayi's expression changed and she asked grimly...

.........

Yunnan Worm Valley, among the unknown mountains and forests. .
"Where are we now?"

Looking at the identical green woods around him, Jiang Shaoxu sighed and asked.

"It's almost time. Just hold on for a while. If you pass through here, you should be able to reach the central circle of the forbidden area."

"According to what the village chief said, Biao is likely to be in that area."

After looking at the map in his hand, Lu Xia turned back and said.

"Aww——"

However, at this moment, a roar came, and a pair of scarlet eyes slowly appeared in the darkness.

"demon?"

Feeling the scent of a dozen slaves around him, Lu Xia frowned, had he reached the area where the demons lived?

"Ice Lock · Bone Grinding!"

Before Lu Xia could take action, Jiang Shaoxu behind him activated his magic.

Silver chains appeared out of thin air, each one exuding a chill that reached the sky.

Jiang Shaoxu waved his hand, and ice chains swept out. The surrounding one-eyed demon wolves had no time to dodge, and were pierced by the chains, and they hated the northwest.

The remaining one-eyed demon wolves immediately became frightened when they saw this, and began to flee around frantically.

Lu Xia curled his lips and waved his hand, and the poison magic was activated instantly, sending the fleeing one-eyed demon wolf to the west on the spot.

Just like that, the battle came to an end before it even started.

"We have reached the area where demons live, so be careful."

After settling everything, Lu Xia warned Jiang Shaoxu behind him.

"Don't worry, I also grew up in the military area, and I have killed many of these monsters."

Jiang Shaoxu smiled slightly, full of confidence.

Lu Xia nodded and stopped talking.

The two continued to walk forward.

After an unknown length of trek, the two people who had been killing demons finally walked out of the jungle and arrived at the foot of a waterfall.

"Now let's spend the night repairing here."

Looking up at the dim sky, Lu Xia suggested.

"okay."

Jiang Shaoxu nodded, naturally he had no objection.

It would be unwise to travel at night in such a place where monsters are rampant.

Just like that, the two took off their backpacks, took out their luggage, and started setting up camp by the waterfall.

After cleaning up everything, the two took out the map and several murals, which the village chief had given them when they left, saying that they could give them some help.

"So, we're still a day and a half away from the central area?"

Looking at the map, Jiang Shaoxu's face darkened.

"Well, there's no way, it's too big here, and the road is very bumpy."

Lu Xia shook his head helplessly.

If he wasn't afraid of being targeted by some powerful group of monsters, he would have released the ice dragon and gone on his way.

But even the old village chief was not sure what kind of basic demons there were here. Helplessly, he did not dare to commit suicide easily.

If a leader comes, everyone will die.

"Hey, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's sort out the information we got now."

"We already know almost everything about Biao."
