Feng Xi kept apologizing, "Senior, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!
This is also my first time assembling one, so I have no experience. In the future, I'll put one together a few more times when I have nothing to do, and I'll get more skilled at it!"
After spending quite a bit of effort, she finally assembled the skeleton into something resembling a person.
Jiang Ji and the others had wanted to come over and help halfway through, but Feng Xi didn't let them.
She was afraid that the skeleton would flare up, and if Jiang Ji and the others were injured, that wouldn't be good.
At least she had the treasured armor Xiao Baidao had given her, so even if she were stabbed by the sword, it would be fine.
After Feng Xi finished assembling the skeleton, she picked up the spirit sword again and placed it in the skeleton's hand. Then she knelt down, preparing to kowtow and apologize.
As a result, the skeleton fell apart again.
Feng Xi: "..."
She had no choice but to assemble the skeleton once more.
It had to be said that like everything else, the first time is unfamiliar and the second time is practiced. Feng Xi's assembly speed this time was much faster than before!
After she finished assembling it, just as her legs bent and before she had even knelt, the skeleton began to tremble.
Feng Xi subconsciously stood up straight.
The skeleton stopped trembling.
Feng Xi pretended to kneel again, and the skeleton started trembling once more.
Feng Xi: "..."
It didn't want her to kneel to it?
Was it unwilling, or… afraid?
Feng Xi couldn't help looking at the wooden sword she had stuck into the ground in her urgency.
Just now, it was this thing that had hummed, and then the skeleton had fallen apart.
Could the skeleton be wary of the wooden sword?
Thinking of the reaction of those broken swords in Wan Jian Sect's Sword Tomb, Feng Xi felt like this guess might actually be true.
The wooden sword really did have an impressive background!
The little black ball's voice came through her divine sense, "Master, stop pasting gold on its face!
No matter how impressive its background was, right now it's still a piece of useless trash, and a troublemaker at that!
First, it nearly made the broken swords in the Sword Tomb explode into chaos, then it made you get chased all over the mountain by those sword intents. Just now, it even made the skeleton fall apart!
Let's just say, if the skeleton really got scared to death by it, who would suppress this mist?!
When the time comes, maybe they'd make you stay here and guard it!
After all, only you know that sword technique.
That's why that wretched wooden sword is nothing but a troublemaker. It should be thrown into the Sword Tomb and left to fend for itself…"
While the little black ball was still chattering, inside the sea of consciousness, the wooden sword suddenly leapt up and smashed down at the little black ball.
The little black ball was instantly flattened into a little black pancake!
The little black ball instantly became as quiet as a chicken.
At that moment, Feng Xi was pleasantly surprised to discover that the mist was slowly dispersing.
It seemed that her sparring with the skeleton just now had been effective.
The others also discovered this, and the tension in their hearts was eased by more than half.
Xing Wu grinned, showing his big white teeth, "See? I told you, we can always trust Little Junior Sister!
As long as she's here, there's no problem that can't be solved!"
Everyone also thought the same, Little Junior Sister was indeed very reliable!
At this moment, Xiao Baidao and the other three had already entered the Mysterious Mist Forest.
More exactly, the moment the mist shrouded the forest, the four of them had entered.
Because they knew that if they didn't make an immediate decision, their personal disciples might not survive.
Although they were also obstructed by the mist, compared to Feng Xi and the others, it was still much easier for them.
But the Mysterious Mist Forest was far too big, how could finding people be easy?!
Halfway through, they even encountered a large group of demon beasts reproducing life.
The four of them: "..."
The demon beasts in the Mysterious Mist Forest were really… diligent.
A flash of insight passed through Hu Wankui's mind, but because he was anxious to find his disciples, he didn't think too deeply about it.
Just now, they had encountered those Golden Core demon beasts that were bolting for their lives.
Those Golden Core demon beasts: "..."
What bloody bad luck!
They had just escaped that perverted, crazy girl, only to run into four Soul Transformation human cultivators.
They didn't even have the courage to run and collectively knelt down, "Aoo—aoo—aoo!"
Xiao Baidao and the other three: "..."
Oh, these demon beasts were quite polite!
If one didn't know better, one might think someone had taught them!
Hu Wankui asked, "Have you seen the personal disciples of our four sects? Where did they go?"
Those Golden Core demon beasts thought, not only did we see them, we were even enslaved by her! Tormented by her!
Otherwise, we wouldn't be kneeling this skillfully!
They cried out a few times, then stood up and made a gesture of leading the way.
Hu Wankui and the other three were delighted and followed the Golden Core demon beasts to the edge of the core area.
The four of them felt their hearts sink.
Those little brats had entered the core area?
That place was full of Nascent Soul demon beasts!
Wasn't that just walking to their deaths?!
They had no time to bother with those trembling Golden Core demon beasts and directly entered the core area.
Then they saw a scene that left them dumbfounded.
More than twenty Nascent Soul demon beasts were drooping their heads, lying there dispiritedly.
Several of their precious disciples were setting up formations, while the rest were gathered around Feng Xi, blowing rainbow farts!
"Little Junior Sister, no wonder you could achieve Heaven-grade Foundation Establishment. Your comprehension is truly unmatched!"
"Little Junior Sister, no wonder the sword intents of Wan Jian Sect chased after you. It's because you're a swordsmanship genius!"
"Little Junior Sister, you're more than just loved by all people and blooming flowers wherever you go. Even skeletons regard you differently!" …
Even Mu Zihuai and the others also said a few good words, only they were too embarrassed to call her "Little Junior Sister", so they addressed her as "Little Junior Sister Feng Xi".
Xiao Baidao stroked his beard and said, "It has to be said that the personal disciples of your three sects really have such sweet mouths!"
Baili Muchen and the other two: "..."
These little brats!
They had never praised us, their masters, like this before!
However, Baili Muchen soon saw his second disciple lying on the ground like a corpse!
Aiyo, how miserable!
His face was swollen like a pig's head, and his body was covered in blood!
Although he didn't particularly like this second disciple, there's still the bond of master and disciple between them, so he hurried over to check on him.
After taking a look, he froze!
Why were there so many holes on his body? With just a glance, they had all clearly been caused by spirit swords!
Had he gotten into a conflict with the disciples of the other three sects?
But seeing his eldest disciple and the others getting along well with everyone else, it didn't seem like there was any estrangement.
What exactly happened?
Just then, Jiang Ji and the others also saw them and hurriedly came over to pay respects.
Those Nascent Soul demon beasts glanced at one another, thinking that fortunately they hadn't eaten this group of little brats earlier. Otherwise, they would've definitely had their whole lair wiped out!
Thinking again of the disaster they had caused, each of them grinned their big teeth and came over to greet them.
Baili Muchen and the other three thought to themselves that the demon beasts in the Mysterious Mist Forest really were different. Whether Golden Core Stage or Nascent Soul Stage, they were all so polite!
