Upon hearing this, Li An suddenly realized.
So that’s how it is!
"What a clever use of a borrowed knife to kill!"
Li An fully understood.
No wonder the eye of the array was placed on the Spirit Charm Mountain side.
In this way, Spirit Charm Mountain becos the most dangerous.
If soone on Mountain Master Jie’s side gives advice, they would definitely attack from Spirit Charm Mountain.
Moreover, there is also a possibility that Mountain Master Bai would proactively reveal the weakness of the grand array, leading them to enter from Spirit Charm Mountain, then launch an ambush.
In any case, Li An and Xiang Yuntian are now in danger.
Zhou Libai obviously knew all of this, which is why she moved away.
"Miss Xiaoying, I want to relocate with Xiaohong, is that okay? No need to switch to Grade C, just any place within Grade D will do... because there’s a lunatic over there, Xiang Yuntian, he’s about to go berserk, and I’m worried Xiaohong might get hurt."
Li An suddenly asked.
Damn, he needed to move too!
However, he hadn’t gone to any ruins or anything, and his pill refinent level hadn’t reached Second Grade, so he hadn’t accumulated any contribution points...
No contribution points ant nothing could be done.
He had to try and see if Miss Xiaoying could do him a favor.
"No, it’s not possible."
But Xiaoying refused: "I can’t promise you that, otherwise, the Mountain Master will say I’m disobedient, breaking the rules, and will kill ."
She shook her head like a rattle.
This girl is sowhat simple-minded... with her rank and status, there are actually many ways she could maneuver.
But she clearly wouldn’t do it, nor was she willing.
After all, being a parrot transford, her mind is too simple.
There’s no use trying to persuade her. If Li An said too much, and she accidentally blurted it out in front of the Mountain Master, Li An would undoubtedly be dead.
"Alright, I’ll try to think of another way..."
Li An had no choice.
After Xiaohong played with Xiaoying for a while, Li An gave her a bag of precious Spiritual Food and then left with the small bird.
...
Back at Spiritual Serenity Peak.
Li An stared at the array not far away, pondering.
Jiang Ribai’s move of public revenge and using a borrowed knife to kill was perfectly executed.
If it weren’t for Li An’s proficiency in arrays and exceptional insight, he would certainly not have discovered any problems. Like in a dream, by the ti Mountain Master Jie’s people arrived, he and Xiang Yuntian would be the first to be attacked.
In such major events, Mountain Master Jie’s side would certainly dispatch many people, how could the two of them resist? Most likely, it would lead to a dead end.
Right now, the best choice for Li An is to leave quietly!
Find a relic to stay at for a few days, wait until the situation here blows over, and then say it was just a coincidence that he went out exploring, which is perfectly normal.
Of course, Xiang Yuntian must not discover this. If he leaves quietly, it’s not a big issue, as Jiang Ribai’s main target is Xiang Yuntian.
"Is Fellow Daoist Lin here?"
At that mont, a voice ca from outside.
Li An went out and saw Lady Shee had arrived.
"Fellow Daoist Shee, please co in—"
Li An smiled, inviting Lady Shee into the mountain.
"How have you been, Fellow Daoist Lin? Everything well?" Upon entering Spiritual Serenity Peak, as Li An offered Spirit Tea, Lady Shee asked with a smile.
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Shee, for your concern, everything is fine."
Li An said: "Fellow Daoist Shee ca at the right ti, I’ve just had sothing I wanted to ask about."
Lady Shee replied: "Feel free, Fellow Daoist Lin."
"I’m planning to go out and explore so relics soon, earn so contribution points. I’ve been considering a few places, Blue Evil River and Wind Evil Forest; I wonder if Fellow Daoist Shee knows about them?"
Lady Shee said: "Both are fine, neither place is particularly dangerous. However, Fellow Daoist Lin cannot leave for now."
She advised kindly, "Recently, the Great Lizard is about to transform into a demon. Just today, Fellow Daoist Bai Jiang sought permission in front of the hall. To prevent any chaos, for the next three months, no cultivator may leave their cultivation site."
"The Mountain Master’s decree should be issued around dusk. By then, spirit beasts and others will patrol around, and if anyone is found outside, even possessing the Mountain Master’s Token will not save them from being executed imdiately."
Li An was dumbfounded.
Jiang Ribai, that old cunning thing...
Going to such lengths?!
But he quickly reacted, realizing this was not specifically aid at Xiang Yuntian, but indeed was necessary due to the situation.
However, it cut off Li An’s escape route!
Actually, he could still leave, by concealing his aura and hiding sowhere for a while, it’s unlikely the spirit beasts in the mountain would discover him.
But afterwards?
He would also expose himself.
Not following the Mountain Master’s decree also leads to a dead end.
Unless he left Mountain Master Bai’s territory altogether.
Frustrating.
But he still feigned ignorance, rely showing a hint of regret, saying: "Well... in that case, I’ll just have to stay on the peak for now."
"Is there sothing Fellow Daoist Shee wanted to discuss?"
Lady Shee said: "It’s like this, I recently found a Spirit Bird to raise, but it’s wild and hard to ta. So I thought of your Spirit Bird, which is exceptionally well-behaved, and ca to borrow it."
"Rest assured, Fellow Daoist Lin, I’ll return it to you in no more than a month."
"This is a small token of my appreciation."
She handed over a Purifying Evil Pill.
Li An didn’t accept it, and a suspicion flashed in his mind...
Was Lady Shee aware that both he and Xiang Yuntian would die this ti, so she planned to take his Spirit Bird in advance?
If Li An died, the Spirit Bird would naturally belong to her.
But why would she value such an ordinary Spirit Bird?
Unless, she also wanted to use it to get close to the girl Xiaoying?
Thoughts raced through Li An’s mind.
"I’m sorry, Lady Shee, this Spirit Bird and I have been through many life-and-death monts together, it’s extrely attached to and never leaves my side... so, I can’t lend it. I hope you understand—"
Refusal!
The Cyan Fla Divine Sparrow certainly cannot be lent out.
