The Emperor's Daughter Arrives: Upgrade to Fight Monsters and Find Husbands

After the birds and beasts fluttered away, the faint chirping of insects became much lighter. There was silence for a moment, and the surroundings were deathly silent.

Zhuyue turned her head and looked around, moving her ears, but found nothing. After all, at this time of year, the trees are bare and not very strong. Even if there are people, it is impossible to hide in it.

"Beauty?"

Zhuyue shook his head, as if nothing happened, and looked at Jiutang with some confusion, his big eyes filled with inquiry. But...it clearly felt a stone hit its leg just now, and the force was so strong that it almost lame its horse's leg.

It's really strange.

Jiu Tang stood high up and looked for a long time, but found nothing. She was also secretly surprised. She didn't expect that there was someone in this place who could hide his aura so well, and she didn't notice it at all.

Sighing: "Otherwise, you will consider yourself unlucky."

The academy is not far ahead. Since he said that before the night walk, he must know something. Perhaps there is some kind of monster among them that is good at hiding its aura. Although the other party is deliberately teasing, it doesn't seem to have much malicious intent.

In line with the principle that doing more is worse than doing less, thinking this way, just as he was about to tell Zhuyue to leave quickly, Jiutang suddenly let out a sigh.

A small piece of mud hit her face so accurately that she didn't even have time to react.

"Beauty, what's wrong?" Zhuyue stood up and said in surprise when she saw Jiutang's face: "I just said there is something dirty. Can you bear this?"

You are so brave, even if you smash it, you dare to commit murder openly in broad daylight. This is too arrogant!

Zhuyue walked around the tree where Jiu Tang was standing several times, shaking his head: "Is it possible that there is something unclean in this forest..."

"哕哕——"

A rough voice sounded in the empty forest, with a hint of pride after a successful prank.

Just listening to this voice, an outline immediately emerged in Jiu Tang's mind - a strong man in his thirties or forties, with a muscular body, a messy and knotted beard on his face, and a malicious smile. There is a rusty ax in his hand, which indicates that he is planning to rob wealth and sex in a panic.

"I passed by by accident, but I hope it's convenient."

Jiu Tang expressionlessly shook out a piece of paper towel and wiped his face, took a deep breath, turned around and saw a gray-brown furry figure emerging from the ground.

The little thing seemed to want to make a sneak attack. When he saw Jiu Tang looking this way, he quickly plunged into the ground.

The speed was so fast that only a furry mass could be vaguely seen.

Jiu Tang: ....? This little thing may have just passed by.

"Wow. Gopher? I love it!"

Zhuzhu sprang out of the space and burrowed into the ground with light in her eyes. After digging for a long time, the strange thing was that there was no sign of any holes being drilled in the land.

Zhuzhu searched for a long time, stopped her paws a little disappointed, and sat on the spot: "There is nothing..."

"Forget it, we still..." The ground suddenly began to rumble and shake, soft earth and rocks flew into the air, and Jiutang immediately fell silent.

These earth and rocks seemed to be pulled by some mysterious force. They flew into the air and suddenly stopped. Then they started to move again, trapping Jiu Tang Zhu Zhu and Zhu Yue in them.

"Come back!" Jiutang shouted, and Zhuyue and Zhuzhu immediately turned into two streams of light and returned to the Hongmeng sky.

"Ouch! - Please beg me." The hoarse voice, like gongs and drums, came from nowhere.

The sound echoed in the circle of dirt, coming from all directions.

Jiu Tang pursed his lips and said nothing. Something in the dark seemed to be a little anxious: "You begged me! Ah!"

Seeing that the ball made of soil was about to surround him, Jiu Tang immediately jumped down from the tree. Standing on the ground, your footsteps sank slightly in the soft earth.

Seeing that Jiutang just didn't speak, the thing in the dark snorted and muttered: "You won't beg me, right? If you don't beg me - then don't blame me!"

This circle of soil tightly sealed the small square of sky above her head, completely blocking her hope of getting out. Jiu Tang sighed. Although he didn't know what this thing was, it was obvious that the other party also had the talent of space attributes.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for her to observe for so long and still find no trace of the other party.

Night walking is also an attribute talent of the space system. Maybe it has something to do with this thing in the dark.

Jiu Tang tried to launch an attack, but when the attack hit the earth wall, it was like a stone falling into water. It only made a small ripple, and was immediately swallowed up.

It seemed that the attack was of no use, and Jiu Tang was not willing to waste any effort. Seeing that he was about to be wrapped up tightly, Jiu Tang was just about to go into the Hongmeng sky to hide.

Just about to leave.

There was a dull ding, and an arrow suddenly pierced the earth circle. Then a ray of light came in from the outside, stayed for a second, and the earth circle shattered.

Jiutang paused and wanted to return to Hongmengtian. The soft earth and rocks fell back to the ground, and a familiar figure appeared in front of them.

"Are you okay?" Ye Xing took back his sword and carefully wiped off the dirt on it.

Jiu Tang patted the dust on his sleeves: "So far, so good."

"Heitu, come out." Ye Xing shouted into the void. A brown-black thing that looked like a little rabbit jumped out of the void, with extremely long ears that hung down to the ground.

Seeing Ye Xing, he snorted and was very unconvinced: "What are you doing?"

Jiutang opened his mouth in disbelief: "Is this... you talking?"

This voice really didn't match it. She had lived two lifetimes and had never heard such a powerful voice, let alone such a cute rabbit in front of her.

"Ah! That's right!" Rabbit said sullenly, "I asked you to beg me, so why don't you just beg me?"

"Kurotsuchi, apologize."

Rabbit raised his head unconvinced, met Ye Xing's cold eyes, and said reluctantly: "Oh, I'm sorry."

Jiu Tang closed his eyes, opened them again, and fixed his eyes on the rabbit: "Ha, ha. It's okay, it's quite interesting." The voice didn't match his own.

Ye Xing asked dully: "Didn't you say there is danger here? Why are you still coming from here?"

Jiu Tang choked. In her direction, this was the only way back to the academy. If she didn't come from here, where would she come from?

Jiu Tang saw this gadget and asked, "So, this is the danger you mentioned at the beginning?"

"Isn't this dangerous enough?"

"I'm not a danger!! I just want to tease her." Kurotsuchi argued.

Jiu Tang didn't speak, and he couldn't hurt her anyway. If the night journey didn't come, she would have just gone back to Hongmeng Tian to avoid it.

"Ye Xing, it seems that your beast is comparable to your talent." Jiu Tang said half-jokingly.

Ye Xing was able to be noticed by her even after he hid in the first place, but she didn't expect that his beast could hide so well - of course, it could also be that Ye Xing wasn't serious at first.

Ye Xing looked at the rabbit with a hint of warning in his eyes.

"Although Kurotsuchi does not have any harmful intentions, it is naughty in nature and likes to play tricks on people. If Teacher Mu hadn't asked me to get Kurotsuchi back to prepare for training together, I would have been here just in time, and I might have made some noise with it."

Jiu Tang: It’s normal. After all, what kind of master brings out what kind of beast? This is how you teased me when I left the academy.

Having said this, Ye Xing lowered his head and looked at the rather unconvinced rabbit on the ground: "Kurotu, I told you a long time ago, if you come out, you have to..."

"Your name is Kurotsuchi!"

"Isn't this a good name?" Ye Xing asked.

"I don't want to argue with you about this stupid issue. If you think it's good, you can use it yourself!"

The long-eared rabbit was so angry that he couldn't bear it anymore. He spat out these words very clearly, and quickly disappeared into the void.

Night travel: ....

Ye Xing was silent for a moment, and there was a rare embarrassment on his usually cold face, as if he was thinking about what to say: "This is my companion beast. It just doesn't deal well with me, so it keeps messing around outside." run."

Jiu Tang lowered his head and smiled. Unexpectedly, this rabbit was still interesting.

Without asking any more questions, he said directly: "Forget it, let's go back to the academy first. I'm tired after traveling for so long. Are they all back?"

Ye Xing naturally knew who Jiu Tang was talking about and nodded: "Brother Li and the others came back last night and are now training with Teacher Mu."

Jiu Tang was a little surprised: "So soon?" She originally thought that when she first arrived at the academy, they had not had much rest in the past few days, so they should rest for two days first.

"The college competition is about to begin, and now, even I have to go back to training." Ye Xing seemed a little distressed.

"Let's go. Brother Li and the others specifically told me to tell them as soon as you come back."

Ye Xing stretched out his hand and touched the void, and pulled out a ball of fur by his ears.

"Let go! Let me go!" Kurotsuchi glanced at Jiutang next to him and felt his face being pressed to the ground and being rubbed.
