The waste she became the first array mage

"Knock knock", it was a man knocking on the door. He was at the second level of Qi Refining. Li Yiru sorted out the lies she had thought of on the way and stepped out.

"Who are you?" The two asked each other the moment she stepped out of the courtyard.

The man looked to be in his thirties and had a good-looking appearance, but one of his eyes was golden in color. No one knew if it was a prosthetic eye or if it had changed due to some chance or magic weapon. Judging from his aura, he did have some skills.

Seeing a young man coming out of the yard, the man looked surprised, his eyes showed vigilance, his muscles tensed instantly, and he asked in a deep voice, "Where is Meng Yian?"

He showed no other abnormalities. Li Yirou asked the strange fire to detect it. "It is an ordinary magic weapon, but it is about level 3. The rest cannot be seen."

Li Yirou felt slightly relieved, as she was worried that his special eyes could see through something. However, an ordinary tier 3 magic weapon certainly didn't have that much power.

That woman's name is Meng Yian? Li Yirou looked serious, not at all flustered, "I don't know her name, I just met a female cultivator. She said she could give me this house for a low price, and asked me to do her a favor."

"When I heard it was so cheap, I bought it from her."

The man's face was full of distrust. His eyes had already passed Li Yiru's figure and saw the large bamboo basket in the yard. He even noticed a piece of clothing exposed.

"Could it be Meng Yian who is in there?" He didn't even finish his words and rushed into the yard without waiting for Li Yirou to explain. She felt from the token that the simple protective shield of the house was broken, and glared at him unhappily.

It seems that this protective shield is basically useless, just like an alarm, it will be broken by any attack.

When the man lifted the branches, he used too much force and accidentally grabbed the dead woman's hair and lifted her head up. The dead woman's eyes were staring in their direction. Li Yirou was startled by the scene and felt uncomfortable.

But the man didn't even pause. He looked at her for a moment and found that it was just a strange woman.

He was used to scenes of death. Li Yirou was watching him silently from behind, and the man's spiritual consciousness was also always on guard against Li Yirou.

"I hope you haven't heard about what happened in Baiguo Town." Li Yirou took the initiative to tell him roughly what happened yesterday. The man frowned, and finally after listening to Meng Yian's series of actions, he looked surprised, but quickly returned to normal.

He was indeed quite familiar with Meng Yian. It seemed that he had been misled by her into believing that Meng Yian had defrauded the money and ran away.

The man cleared his throat and explained, "I wanted to ask her to hunt monsters with me tomorrow, but I didn't expect that she had already left."

After saying that, he looked at Li Yirou, not knowing what he was thinking, and said, "I think you have good cultivation. Why don't you go monster hunting with us tomorrow and earn some spirit stones?"

"Don't worry, we have organized group hunting before, and the particularly powerful monsters will not appear in the surrounding area for the time being."

For some reason, the red-eyed man would invite a stranger like her. Li Yirou was a little skeptical and looked at him, but then she heard the man add, "Join the monster hunting team and sell monster materials to be exempt from taxes."

She had so many monster pills in her hands, and if they were tax-free, she could save a lot. Li Yirou was tempted.

"Meng Yian left suddenly, leaving a vacancy in our team, and it's just right that you can fill it."

The man with golden pupils wanted to go hunting tomorrow while the monsters were not strong. More people would at least give more strength. He didn't want to harm Li Yirou. His only bad intention was that if they encountered danger, this new Taoist friend would not cooperate as well as the others and could be left behind to attract the monsters' attention.

Seeing that Li Yirou was still hesitating, "Don't worry, when we form a team, we will all swear a vow that we will not hurt each other."

"Fellow Daoist, may I know what direction of cultivation everyone in the team is pursuing?" At least one does not have to be wary of teammates. As for whether teammates will take the initiative to help if something happens, that is another matter.

Recalling that Wang Yuanling's team had a clear division of labor, and Meng Yian seemed to be a talisman practitioner, if she came to play a supporting role, her cultivation level would improve more slowly. If they wanted to find someone to help, Li Yirou was not very willing.

The man with golden eyes saw that she was not completely ignorant of the configuration of the monster hunting team. Perhaps she had participated in monster hunting before, so he took her more seriously and introduced her. "Before, there were two talisman cultivators. When one of them set up the formation, the other used the talisman. I am a sword cultivator, and there are two magic cultivators."

"I'm also a sword cultivator." Li Yiru had already thought about it all along. She wanted to make money as a sword cultivator. She had originally planned to hunt monsters alone, but now that someone wanted her to join the team, she decided to follow along and see what happened. With a teammate, it wouldn't be that special.

She knew that Han Yuzhen would not let her go easily and would definitely investigate further. She might have been led by Shi Yue to Chixia Town.

The man looked at the young man in surprise. He was only about fifteen or sixteen, and he was already practicing swordsmanship?

The sword cultivator has to be in the front, and the young man doesn't seem to be very strong or courageous... There was distrust in the man's eyes, but Li Yirou didn't care and followed him out to see what would happen first.

What she was worried about was that she had already shown yesterday that her wood and fire spiritual roots were stronger, so it would be better to change her weapons. The sword given by her senior sister was no longer useful after Han Yuzhen found out about it, and it would be exposed again.

"Fellow Daoist, I'd like to ask if there's anyone selling spirit swords in our town? The one I had before was damaged, like a piece of broken wood." Li Yiru thought that since he recruited her into the team, he wouldn't try to cheat her right away, so she asked him and decided to buy a spirit sword with both wood and fire attributes first.

"Then we might as well go to Baiguo Town or Chixia Town. There's nothing to choose from in our town."

"If I had known, I would have come back after buying things. I wanted to see if this house is good. I was a little impatient." Li Yirou seemed to have just reacted. The man felt that there was nothing suspicious about her after hearing this. He also felt that with the boy's cultivation level, he could not harm Meng Yian.

Since they were temporary new teammates anyway, he took the initiative to tell her, "Go to the mayor and find a steward to register and say that Meng Yian sold the house to you. If anything happens, you'll have evidence."

For those in their monster hunting team, life and death are commonplace. If the whole team were wiped out one day, no one would even know their names.

In the Western Realm, if a cultivator dies while hunting monsters, his name will be written on the merit tablet, saying that he can accumulate some merits and accumulate blessings for the next life. Li Yirou didn't really believe in the words of accumulating merits and accumulating blessings. Seeing that Han Yuzhen did such evil things, he lived the happiest life in the Western Realm.

Li Yirou nodded, "Oh, I'll go then."

After saying that, she was about to close the door and leave, signaling the golden-eyed male cultivator to come out as well. After a brief contact, the man understood a little bit that with this straightforward personality, perhaps he was really suitable to be a vanguard.

"Fellow Daoist, let's at least exchange names. My name is Ren Fei, and our team is called Feihong Team. I'll come early tomorrow to pick you up~"

"Fellow Daoist Ren." Li Yirou indicated that she had remembered it and said, "See you tomorrow!" After that, she ran away.

Ren Fei shook his head, noticing the boy's impatient temper, and was a little worried about whether he could get along well with his new teammates.
