Junior sister, keep forbear for a while, I almost become invincible as soon! Chapter 776 - 774 I Lied to You All

Ru Shuang, although not stunningly beautiful, was still quite a delicate and pretty girl, standing with a grace that was only enhanced by her clear and pure gaze.

Any young man who saw her would involuntarily feel a protective desire stirring within him.

So did Mr. Jiang. Even though he wasn't the nicest person and his morals were questionable, he always showed great affection towards Ru Shuang within the team.

Upon seeing a stranger striking up a conversation with Ru Shuang, his face imdiately darkened.

But he didn't act rashly.

The place was enigmatic, deep within the Life Prohibited Zone. The appearance of a youth clad in beast skins stirred the imagination. His identity and origins were a mystery. He was wary. The others nearby were as well.

Ru Shuang's cheeks turned even redder, like apples. She lowered her eyelids, not daring to look at the youth clad in beast skins, her small hands fidgeting with the hem of her clothes.

Nevertheless… She still shook her head.

The youth nad Aji chuckled, "I have planted flowers all over that mountain, and they are now in full bloom, but... no one has been able to enjoy them. If you want to see them, I can take you there."

Ru Shuang still shook her head, nervously uttering two words, "Don't want!"

"Over there? Where is that?" Liu Qin asked.

"Over there."

"Is it far?"

"Not far," the youth answered.

"I just ca from over there. The earth was desolate, devoid of life. Why do you claim that you've planted a mountain full of flowers?" Liu Qin challenged.

Aji chuckled lightly. "The flowers are indeed planted, but... you just can't see them. Just like that piece of wood—to your eyes, it's just wood, but it's actually a living creature."

What?

The group's faces changed drastically, and they hastily retreated from the wooden piece.

The few cloaked n who had attacked earlier also felt chills down their spines. When they looked at the wood again, their gazes were markedly different, now filled with fear.

A piece of living wood.

Aji continued, "Invisibility does not an non-existence, and conversely, the things you can see might sotis be false."

"For instance?" Liu Qin asked.

"This cave where you stand is actually the mouth of a ferocious beast..." the youth blinked.

"..."

They were dumbstruck.

When the implication dawned on them, they fled once more.

"Another example, the strangeness of this world originates from the darkness deep within," Aji chuckled.

The group turned solemn. They realized that the youth before them was no ordinary person; he could very well be a being native to this place.

Liu Qin inquired, "Fellow Daoist, do you know the path leading deeper into this place?"

"What brings you here?" the youth asked.

"Seeking opportunities," Liu Qin replied.

The youth shook his head. "You're lying. If you were seeking opportunities, your attention would have been on the wood, not the beast's attack. And... after the sound was made, you reacted quite differently. Are you seeking vengeance? Looking for soone? Or sothing else?"

Liu Qin remained silent, suddenly feeling an imnse pressure.

HAHAHA...

Aji burst into laughter, "Don't be nervous, I'm just like you!"

The crowd: "..."

What a way to talk. First a slap, then a kick, and then he consoles them, saying, "I was just kidding earlier."

'Kidding,' my foot!

They cursed inwardly but dared not say more.

"No way, no way, did I fool you?" Aji blinked. "I was deceiving you just now! How could a beast be so huge? And its mouth transform into a cave, right?"

No one spoke.

Aji sighed. "Alright! I'll co clean. I co from the depths—from another place. Is that clearer?"

Oh?

Liu Qin was surprised. "The depths?"

Aji nodded, "Yes!"

Liu Qin laughed. "So? What's your purpose, fellow Daoist?"

"Looking for opportunities!" Aji said.

"We can work together," Liu Qin said.

"I agree."

"Now? Shall we make a move?" Liu Qin asked, squinting.

"Let's do it!"

"Go?"

"Go!"

Liu Qin strode forward. "Alright, we'll go in first."

Fuck?

Aji suddenly snapped to his senses and quickly stopped him. "Wait! I just saw a woman with an ox over there. She was so damn terrifying! She actually lifted her hand to suppress the strangeness. If we go now, we'll definitely run into her."

Everyone beca solemn.

Aji continued, "Let's wait a bit longer..."

His words were not false.

But at the sa ti, they revealed a truth—he had been there, on the other side of the passage.

Is that so?

They laughed. "We'll listen to our friend."

Aji blinked and looked once more at Ru Shuang. "Are you really not going to look at the flowers?"

Ru Shuang shook her head.

"They're not planted by , but... those flowers contain a touch of the Dao." Aji smiled. "It's truly a pity."

He kept on babbling.

Ru Shuang could hardly say a word for a long ti, clearly very nervous.

Jiang Hao, his face stern, would have attacked long ago, but... he didn't dare. He wanted to enter deeper to find opportunities, and perhaps he would have to rely on this bastard for that.

Liu Qin also wouldn't act; his purpose was clear.

And now, obstructed before reaching their goal, they had to find a way to go deeper. As for the woman and ox the youth ntioned, Liu Qin didn't take it seriously.

Of course, if Aji wanted to wait, then they would wait.

Several hours passed in a flash.

Aji, who had been sitting with his eyes closed in contemplation, suddenly opened them and chuckled. "Alright, we can move now." With that, he strode forward with his mount.

The group behind him was astonished. "Fellow Daoist..."

Aji turned back. "What?"

There's danger! What do you an, 'what?'

Aji smiled and waved his hand. "I have the Azure Blood Qilin. No worries!"

This was a divine beast from ancient tis, as powerful as the Dragon Clan and the Phoenix.

The group was dumbstruck.

They looked at him and then at the mount behind him.

The creature appeared quite large, around three to five ters long, and very robust. Yet, from every angle, inside and out, top to bottom, it looked like a fierce beast.

How could this be an ancient Qilin?

They gave a sheepish laugh and said nothing.

Aji, unconcerned by their reactions, just shrugged. Summoning his mount, he entered the cave. "Follow closely, or you might get lost," he called back. "And... if we run into that woman and the ox later, rember to stay calm. Control yourselves and don't act rashly."

AOOW!

The Qilin lazily responded, then opened its mouth and spewed out a fla, which, however, extinguished after only a few breaths.

The group: "..."

"'My bad, my bad!' Aji said with a sheepish smile, 'Let's try that again!'"

ROAR!

The Qilin pulled itself together and attacked again, releasing another fla.

But this fla was even more intense than the last, enveloping the wood in front of it as if to burn it away.

Of course, burning it was impossible.

Every object here had a reason to exist. To destroy it rashly might invite disaster.

The wood, wrapped in fla, rely lost its original color, becoming even more subdued. In their perception, the resistance it exuded also seed to vanish.

They beca solemn.

Aji chuckled. "Let's go!" After a pause, he warned again, "Rember, if we really encounter that woman or see that ox, don't act recklessly."
