Chapter 76 Strange

Who should I put it in?
Following the gaze of the woman with short, neat green hair, Nan Ran turned around to look behind her.

There's nobody here either.
Could there be something she can't see?
Nan Ran suddenly felt a chill down her back and jogged to move to a more crowded area.

The woman with short, neat green hair: ...

Meng Duanyue: ...

She guessed what Nan Ran was thinking and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Why are you running?"

Nan Ran blinked, looking innocent and honest: "I'm afraid there's some dirty thing over there that I can't see."

Very scary.

Meng Duanyue: ...

Isn't this junior sister a little too cute?

It's actually quite fun.

"I also think that this bamboo shoot should be kept by Junior Sister Nanran."

She looked at Nan Ran with a smile: "What do you think, Junior Sister?"

"I think you shouldn't think that way!!"

Nan Ran stared at Meng Duanyue as if she had seen a ghost, suspecting that the other party had been possessed by some not-so-bright, wandering ghost.

Otherwise, why would he say something so unwise?

"Senior Sister Meng, I..."

Nan Ran paused slightly, her heart aching so much she could hardly breathe, and stated the fact expressionlessly: "He's a piece of trash."

Leaving your things with her is like parading through the streets, loudly proclaiming: "Come on, come on! There's a big treasure here! The person guarding the treasure is useless; you can just steal it! Steal it all you want!"

What's the difference?
There's no difference!

Nan Ran looked at the green-haired woman again, feeling quite puzzled.

She doesn't know this person at all, right?
Why would this person harm her like this when they have no grudge against her? "That's precisely why I should leave the Cloud-Piercing Bamboo Shoots with you for safekeeping."

Meng Duanyue looked very serious.

"what?"

Nan Ran realized that Meng Duanyue seemed to be serious.

I really wanted to give her this coveted bamboo shoot to protect her from disaster.

"It's precisely because you lack cultivation and don't attract attention that we're placing you here."

Meng Duanyue stepped forward with a smile and patted Nan Ran on the shoulder: "Moreover, Junior Sister is a favorite of Heaven, and good fortune will bless her wherever she goes."

"With my junior sister leading the Cloud-Piercing Bamboo Shoots, who knows, there might be an even bigger surprise."

"I am looking forward."

Nan Ran: ...
-
Meng Duanyue arranged for the trial team to rest briefly before setting off again towards the trial location.

As they walked, they noticed something was amiss.

"Don't you guys find it strange? We've been deliberately avoiding the places where we're most likely to encounter monsters along the way, but surely we haven't encountered a single one?"

Let alone high-level demonic beasts, they haven't even seen a low-level demonic beast along the way.

"It's really strange."

"Could there be something wrong here?"

Everyone became alert, gathering in twos and threes towards the center of the group, cautiously surveying their surroundings.

But looking around, apart from the extreme quietness, there was nothing amiss.

"Could something big be about to happen in this Water Demon Forest? Are all the demonic beasts hiding, which is why we haven't encountered them?"

“Something is definitely not right. This is almost the boundary of the inner perimeter. In previous years, when we came here to participate in the trials, we usually encountered monster hordes attacking us in this very area.”

But nowadays, they haven't even seen any ordinary birds or beasts, let alone attacks from demonic beasts.
