These fairies want me to deal with them every day.

It's as if they've all forgotten what they're supposed to be doing.

"...!"

The tentacles seemed to give Mo Qiu no more time to think, and pounced on him in an instant.

The moment the tentacles wrapped around his body, Mo Qiu seemed to lose the strength to resist, and the tentacles lifted him high into the air.

Mo Qiu was looking down amidst the turbulence when he saw the tentacles dragging him into the gap in the Kunlun ape's neck, and inside that gap... were countless tentacles, like wriggling maggots, 'welcoming' him...

He even felt like vomiting in his fear.

But in that instant.

"Mo Qiu!"

A beam of sword light severed the tentacle.

Mo Qiu landed on the ground and saw his brother standing in front of him, holding a long sword.

"Are you okay?"

Mo Yao asked anxiously, and Mo Qiu subconsciously shook her head, "I'm fine..."

"That's good."

Mo Yao grasped the boy's shoulder and let out a long sigh of relief.

Mo Qiu looked at the sincere expression on his brother's face and lowered his eyes slightly.

But it was also at this time.

"Whoosh!!"

The two turned around at the same time and saw countless tentacles shooting out from the gap in the Kunlun ape's neck; they had not detached.

But then something truly chilling happened.

The massive body of the Kunlun ape, headless and seemingly lifeless, actually stood up and was waving its hands at them! PS: I'm going to the gym tomorrow, so I'll go to bed early and try to update another chapter after I get back this afternoon~

63 What the heck?

"It's so quiet."

The sound of Mu Xitong's footsteps crushing the fallen leaves was so clear, crisp and refreshing.

However, the surrounding fog was still thick, so they couldn't move too quickly.

Wei Tu, standing beside him, said softly, "This quietness isn't a good thing. There's a saying, isn't there?"

Wei Tu looked at the little fox.

The little fox racked her brains for a short time before giving a very certain answer: "A full stomach doesn't know the hunger of a starving person!"

"I'll give you two punches. Besides food, do you have any other knowledge to offer?"

The little fox looked at Wei Tu with a puzzled expression. "That's how it is. How would I know your old sayings?"

"Then speak fox language?"

"Why would you do this if you can't understand what I'm saying..."

"Still being stubborn."

"and many more."

Mu Xitong suddenly stopped the two from arguing.

Wei Tu and the little fox on his shoulder looked over together.

Wei Tu saw Mu Xitong suddenly squat down. He thought she was not feeling well, so he hurriedly went over, only to find that the woman was frowning and looking at the mud on the ground.

"what happened?"

"It must have rained a little last night."

She suddenly asked.

Wei Tu thought for a moment and nodded, "I did hear a faint sound of rain yesterday, but it wasn't very loud."

Mu Xitong said, "That's right, the soil is damp, so footprints will be left... Look at these marks."

Wei Tu looked over and examined it closely.

"Have you found anything?"

Wei Tu said in a deep voice, "How come there are so many marks..."

Mu Xitong nodded. "That's where things are wrong. This place doesn't seem to be far from where we rested yesterday, but there are so many traces of demonic beasts passing by. It would take rain to make the ground wet and leave traces. Since we weren't far apart last night, why didn't these demonic beasts notice us... or even make a sound?"

Wei Tu also pondered, “Indeed, this doesn’t seem right. This doesn’t fit the behavior of demonic beasts. Logically speaking, with their prey nearby, there’s absolutely no reason for them to hide, unless they’re like humans, brewing a huge conspiracy. But that’s unlikely.”

"So what could be the situation?"

The little fox blinked and asked.

Wei Tu shook his head, "I don't know for now. Something feels increasingly wrong. It seems that heading south isn't safe either."

"Should we go that way?"

Mu Xitong stood up and asked.

Wei Tu nodded. "There's no reason not to go. Even if it's a huge conspiracy, I'll still get things done for you."

"Why bother looking so handsome... I'm not going to thank you for it."

Mu Xitong said irritably.

Wei Tu chuckled. "Do I need this kind of proof to determine whether I'm handsome or not? Besides, you only have one option left now: to repay me with your body."

"Keep dreaming!"

Mu Xitong said, her cheeks flushed.

Her hand almost imperceptibly touched her arm. She had checked it last night; the red line was growing very fast... it was almost at her wrist.

When this red line extends to the palm of your hand, that's when there's truly no cure.

So they continued south.

"call!"

In the thick fog, something seemed to fly by in the obscured sky, leaving only a faint sound for a moment.

Wei Tu raised his head, and the little fox next to him did the same.

Wei Tu asked softly, "Did you sense something too?"

The little fox said, "Hmm... I smell a strong demonic aura, but... it seems there's something else in it that's a little different from the demonic aura."

"Not the same?"

"I can't quite put my finger on it... but it's definitely not a good thing..."

The little fox had barely finished speaking when suddenly, her mind took a turn.

"Wei Xiaoer is over there!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the young man beside her seemed to be even faster, and he directly pulled out Shen Tu from his Qiankun bag.

Right behind Wei Tu, a dark shadow rushed down, moving as fast as a falling meteor.

The wind and its force falling on your face seem to want to crush you directly onto the slightly damp ground.

The fallen leaves on the ground were swept away, and when Wei Tu looked up, he saw a huge black eagle breaking through the mist.

It spread its wings completely, as if it could instantly block out all the sunlight above the three people, plunging them all into shadow.

The black eagle, its face contorted with ferocity, was about to thrust its sharp beak straight at Wei Tu. There was no doubt that being pierced by such a sharp beak would not be a simple injury, but would absolutely result in the disembowelment of Wei Tu.

But Wei Tu drew his sword, and as the wind that stung his cheeks came towards him, he thrust it straight toward his head.

Resisting the shadows of darkness was an even more dazzling golden light.

A vast and powerful sword aura soared into the sky.

"boom!!"

Blood gushed out like a fountain behind the black eagle, creating a huge bloody hole in its neck.

Thus, the black eagle, like a kite with a broken string, lost all its power in an instant and began to glide outwards.

"Rumble..."

It smashed open a road and knocked down countless trees.

The black eagle, which had stirred up a cloud of dust, seemed to have lost all chance of survival. With the blood vessels in its neck destroyed, what hope could it possibly have?

But before Wei Tu could sheathe his sword, he clearly heard the voice of the little fox hiding to the side.

"Wei Xiaoer, something's not right! It doesn't seem to be completely dead yet!"

Wei Tu frowned, not scolding the little fox for its unfounded worries, but instead seeing the black eagle, which should have died instantly, flap its wings.

It's like a natural reaction of the muscles after death.

But soon, Wei Tu sensed that something was wrong.

The black eagle in front of them, which should have been a huge corpse, suddenly began to tremble violently.

It seemed to be convulsing; its massive body twisted and struggled, as if resisting something, eerie and terrifying.

Then... it stood up.

Because of the blood hole in its neck, it could only hang with its head hanging down, looking like an unimportant burden.

Its massive body faced him, seemingly sensing something closely. Wei Tu could clearly feel something brewing and writhing within the corpse.

In short... it's definitely not the Black Eagle itself.

It paused for a moment, then suddenly charged toward Wei Tu at an incredible speed, its wings and enormous claws moving in unison, in a bizarre, twisted, and evil manner.

Without hesitation, Wei Tu drew his sword again, this time severing the black eagle's wings with two strikes.

The wings fell to either side, and an unexpected scene unfolded: from the broken ends of the wings, countless tentacles emerged, twisting and sticking together, mimicking the shape of wings, albeit in a jarring and unnatural way, even... terrifying.
