I didn't expect that I was the heartthrob.

In the huge sword-stone forest that pierced the sky, many spiritual beasts suddenly appeared. Each of them looked like a tiger, but with sharp claws and fangs, and green eyes.

Gu Lan smelled a strong fishy smell and felt a gust of cold wind. He looked carefully and suddenly discovered that there were many resentful ghosts hiding in the sword and stone forest!

The little chick chirped several times in front of Gu Lan, finally attracting Gu Lan's attention, but at this time they were surrounded.

Although Xu Guizhi is a soul and is not afraid of his body being harmed, his soul is incomplete and can be easily swallowed by other ghosts, so he quickly flew onto Gu Lan's body.

"Senior Xu, you are really a scumbag!" Gu Lan cursed, "How can there be a senior like you? Not only did you not help me, you actually escaped in the middle of the battle."

Xu Guizhi coughed to hide his embarrassment, "If my physical body was here, these things would be a piece of cake, but now I am a residual soul and it is easy for me to be devoured by other ghosts. It is too dangerous to stay outside."

Gu Lan kept silent for a long while, gritted his teeth, and stared at the group of beasts and ghosts who were eyeing him hungrily, fearing that they would pounce on him if he wasn't paying attention.

"What should we do now? Is there any solution?"

"For now, we can only fight our way out." Xu Guizhi cheered for Gu Lan, "Believe in yourself, you can do it!"

Gu Lan sighed, and the spirit beasts began to get agitated, digging their hooves and claws on the ground, ready to pounce at any time. No one knew who started it first, but after hearing a roar, the other spirit beasts all came out, and the lurking ghost swam around excitedly, flew to Gu Lan's side, and absorbed her spiritual energy.

"Chirp, chirp, chirp!" The little chick cried anxiously, stretching out its claws and flying beside Gu Lan. When it saw a ghost flying over, it stretched out its thin claws and kicked it out. What's more, even though the claws were similar to a little chicken's paws, the ghosts seemed to be quite afraid of them and avoided it one after another.

Gu Lan saw it and hurriedly approached the little chicken, "Little chicken, do you have any way to help me get out of this predicament?"

"Chirp, chirp, chirp." The little chick flapped its wings hard and shouted for a long time with its neck stretched.

Gu Lan didn't understand what it was saying. As she was listening carefully, she saw out of the corner of her eye that a spirit beast was stretching out its claws to attack the chick.

Gu Lan held the shadow horizontally, then drew out the sword, pierced the claw of the spirit beast, and threw it upward. The spirit beast howled and was thrown out.

Then Gu Lan saw several spirit beasts suddenly pounce on the injured and wailing spirit beast, and devoured it in a few seconds.

What the hell are these things? Gu Lan stared in shock and said, "They're killing each other!"

At this moment, Gu Lan suddenly felt cold on the soles of his feet and shivered violently.

It turned out that at some point, a vengeful ghost quietly crawled towards Gu Lan from under his feet and was about to touch Gu Lan.

When the little chick saw it, it chirped in a shrill voice for a long time. Seeing that Gu Lan was only paying attention to the spirit beasts and not paying attention to his feet, it became so anxious that its eyes widened. At this extremely anxious moment, its body suddenly changed.

It suddenly swelled up like a ball, and after a few seconds the ball burst. With a whoosh, the little chicken flew up and became as tall as three or four people.

A pair of thin claws became as thick as a small tree.

When the pair of wings were spread out, they were actually twenty to thirty meters long. With a flap of the huge wings, the spirit beast that was spying nearby was blown away. The spirit beast that was blown away hit the stone pillar, its spine broken, and it vomited blood, and could no longer get up.

Upon seeing this, the other spirit beasts nearby gathered around and devoured the food in a few seconds.

The little chicken didn't pay any attention to those things. Seeing that he had become so big, he was confused for a while. Then he saw that the vengeful ghost under Gu Lan's feet was still moving forward and was about to grab Gu Lan's ankle. The little chicken shrugged and stretched out his foot, and crushed the soul completely with one foot.

Before Gu Lan could react, he used his wings to sweep Gu Lan under his body to protect her, then raised his neck and let out a long roar.

The chick's cry was so sharp that it made the spirit beasts prostrate themselves on the ground. However, they were not afraid. Instead, they stared at the chick with greedy eyes.

The shrieking sound had no effect on Gu Lan, it just sounded harsh to her ears.

When the spirit beasts saw that it had suddenly grown so big, although the screaming made them uncomfortable, they became even more greedy and rushed forward.

The little chick ignored them, flapped its wings and created a whirlwind, blowing all the spirit beasts into the sky. It raised its head, stretched out its huge beak, stabbed them to death one by one, and then threw them far away.

Those resentful ghosts had already sensed the danger when it crushed one of their kind, and they all hid underground and disappeared.

The spirit beasts suffered heavy losses, and seeing that they could not win, they left in anger.

The crisis was resolved and Gu Lan came back to his senses.

This little chicken can actually grow so big! It's really unexpected.

Gu Lan touched its bright red feathers, raised her neck to look at it, and the chick also lowered its head to look at her.

It was quite proud of itself for having dealt with so many spirit beasts at once. It stretched its neck and lowered its head to beg Gu Lan to touch it. Seeing this, Gu Lan readily followed suit and touched its head.

"That's great. Are you the one that the red stone turned into?" Gu Lan asked the question that he had wanted to ask for a long time.

Chicken Little nodded.

"Oh, so it is. If you have grown so big and are so powerful, why didn't you do it earlier? I thought I was going to die here."

The little chick shook its head. It didn't know how it suddenly became so big.

When Gu Lan saw it shaking its head, he suddenly remembered something and hurriedly checked his space ring. He saw that the top-grade spirit stone had already turned into an ordinary stone and was lying miserably on the ground.

Gu Lan couldn't catch her breath and almost fainted.

She pointed at the chicken and yelled angrily, "How come you've grown so big? You ate all my top-grade spirit stones! Pay me back now!"

The little chicken said aggrievedly, "Chirp, chirp, chirp."

If you don't give me food, I'll be hungry.

Gu Lan didn't understand and kept poking its head.

Seeing this, Xu Guizhi stepped forward to smooth things over, saying, "You starve it every day, which is not conducive to its growth. How can it grow without eating your high-quality spirit stones? Even if you blame it like this, it can't spit out the spirit stones for you."

"That's a top-grade spirit stone. It's not easy to get one. If you don't feel sorry for it, I will." Gu Lan was so angry that she pulled her hair.

How could she have forgotten to put the chick in the space ring last time? She was really confused.

Xu Guizhi snorted when he saw her useless look.

"Those high-quality spirit stones are given to you by Ji Yanli. You can exchange them after you use them up."

"You make it sound so easy. I earned that money by drawing talismans. I haven't even used the spirit stones I worked so hard to earn yet, and they were eaten by a little chicken. I'm so angry."

"But the little chicken also saved your life." Xu Guizhi touched the little chicken sympathetically, "Little chicken, let's not argue with a stingy person."

"You! You are the stingy one!" Gu Lan stomped her feet.

Xu Guizhi circled around Gu Lan, and in order to irritate her, he deliberately teased her in a sarcastic tone, "You are a stingy person! You are a stingy person, stingy people drink cold water."

The two started arguing, and the little chick combed its fur aggrievedly. It had saved her last time, humans, tsk tsk.
