nClang–

nA sword humming sound rang out in Li Mengxi’s ears, as the cold light disappeared into the Fierce Wind Tiger behind her.

nImmediately, the huge impact force brought the Fierce Wind Tiger along with it as it skidded along the ground, landing heavily on the hard ground.

nThe cold light was the sixth move of Tiangang Sword Finger, Tiangang Sword Intent Finger, which Su Yi had used.

nAt this moment, Li Mengxi was a little stunned. She had originally planned to reverse her true essence and forcefully retreat. She did not expect to be saved at this moment.

nIn her eyes, she saw a figure speeding towards her like a stream of light.

nSeeing this, Li Mengxi bowed to Su Yi and thanked him.

n“Thank you for saving me…”

nHowever, before she could finish her sentence, she stopped. A familiar face appeared in her eyes. However, this familiar face seemed to be in a mess at this moment.

n

n

n“Why? Haven’t seen you for a few days, and Fellow Daoist Li, you don’t recognize me anymore?”

nA magnetic voice sounded. Su Yi said with a smile on his face. There was a hint of teasing in his gaze.

nLi Mengxi was only slightly stunned when she saw that it was Su Yi. She quickly reacted. A faint smile appeared on her originally cold face, and there was an inexplicable meaning in her eyes.

nShe looked at Su Yi and said lightly with her jade-like lips, “how is that possible? Fellow Daoist Su is now a famous person in Central Plains. How could I forget you just like that? Moreover, you saved me. No matter what, I should at least say thank you.”

nUpon hearing this, Su Yi chuckled and unconsciously touched his nose. He was still a little embarrassed when Li Mengxi brought up the matter of him being famous in Central Plains.

nVery soon, he recovered and looked at Li Mengxi as he asked indifferently.

n“By the way, fellow Daoist Li, why are you also in the Demon Subduing Mountain?”

nHe was a little puzzled. After the Tiandao sect’s competition, did Li Mengxi not return to her clan? Why was she in the Demon Subduing Mountain now?

nMoreover, he did not see her Li clan’s team. Could it be that she was traveling alone?

nOr perhaps, what was the reason she came to the Demon Subduing Mountain range?

nHe had heard before that the Li clan’s information chain was relatively well-connected. Could it be that something was about to open up on the Demon Subduing Mountain?

nHowever, even so, it was impossible for Li Mengxi to come alone. Therefore, Su Yi immediately ruled out this idea.

nPerhaps because of his identity, he instantly thought of many reasons.

nHowever, he did not rule out all of them. No matter how he thought about it, he could not figure out why Li Mengxi would appear here.

nThe Demon Subduing Mountain range was not a place to cultivate and hunt demon beasts. Not to mention the mystic realm, this mountain range’s path was almost worn out by the cultivators coming and going. How could there be a mystic realm that had not been discovered?

nAfter hearing Su Yi’s question, Li Mengxi brushed a strand of black hair by her ear and looked at the long and winding path of the Demon Subduing Mountain.

n“Because of an immortal sect mission.”

n“An immortal sect mission?”

nUpon hearing this, Su Yi suddenly came to a realization. No wonder he could not think of the key points. It turned out that he had forgotten that Li Mengxi also possessed the spirit transformation token and joined the immortal sect to become the next disciple.

nIf he remembered correctly, Li Mengxi seemed to have joined what was called, the Celestial Arcanum Immortal Sect?

nIndeed, Li Mengxi had indeed joined this immortal sect, and the mission to collect the hundred-year-old fluorescent herb had also been issued here.

nLi Mengxi was a bit stunned when she saw Su Yi’s shocked expression. She looked at Su Yi and asked curiously, “fellow Daoist Su, don’t you also have the immortal transformation medallion? Why are you making such a big fuss?”

n“I did get the medallion. I just didn’t expect to meet you here,” he looked to the side and replied leisurely. How could he say that he had forgotten that she also had the spirit transformation token.

nMoreover, women were extremely strange creatures. If it was a man, he would at most think that you looked down on him, but if it was a woman, she might even hold a grudge against you.

nTherefore, he definitely would not say that he had forgotten that she had the spirit transformation token, so he began to change the topic.

n“From what you mean, you came to the Demon Subduing Mountain range for an immortal sect mission?”

nLi Mengxi was a little curious. The immortal transformation medallion was a legendary item, but now it was in the hands of the person in front of her. If she did not respect him, she would have wanted to ask what was so special about the immortal transformation medallion.

nHowever, the relationship between the two of them was neither too far nor too close, so she did not have the face to ask.

nWhen he heard this, he nodded his head lightly. Although his destination was not here, he was still passing by the Demon Subduing Mountain range.

nAfter that, he opened his mouth and faintly said, “yes, I want to make a trip to Qinwang Ridge.”

n“Qinwang Ridge…”

nAfter Li Mengxi heard Su Yi’s words, she seemed to have thought deeply for a moment. Suddenly, her eyes slightly lit up as she looked at Su Yi and faintly said, “are we going to pass by the Forest of Fireflies?”

nIf she remembered correctly before she came, behind her destination was a small city called Qinyang City. That small city had its back against Qinwang Ridge.

nSu Yi did not hide anything about this. After all, he was originally going there, and as for Li Mengxi, how should he put it? She only had a grudge against Zhao Xuening. Su Yi himself did not have any prejudice against Li Mengxi. He treated her completely as a friend.

nVery soon, after Su Yi confirmed it, she also proposed the idea of accompanying him. Su Yi did not refuse. After all, it was a few day’s journey. One more person would make it more fun. At least it would not be so lonely and boring.

nAfter deciding to go together, the two of them cleaned up the demon beasts that had been corroded by the demonic qi, and then directly set off on their journey.

n…

nOne day later–

nOn a small path in the Demon Subduing Mountain range, the two of them were both foundation establishment realm cultivators, so their speed was naturally much faster.

nIf it was not for Su Yi taking care of Li Mengxi, with his speed, he would probably only need half a day to cross this Demon Subduing Mountain range and arrive at the Forest of Fireflies.

nAt this moment, on a mountain top, two figures were slowly walking up the cliff rampart. From here, one could see that in front of them, there was an endless forest.

nLi Mengxi, who was dressed in a green robe, pointed at the forest with a somewhat excited expression on her face. Her gaze looked at Su Yi as if she was asking him a question, but also as if she was telling him something.

n

n

n“Look, that must be the Forest of Fireflies.”

nUpon hearing this, Su Yi looked in the direction that she was pointing at. Indeed, as long as they found a way down from this mountain range, they would directly enter the Forest of Fireflies.

n“Yes, that should be it.”

nUpon seeing this, he softly replied. After a short day of traveling, the relationship between the two of them had become somewhat close.

nAt the very least, they would not be half-strangers like before.

n“Then let’s go.”

nJust as Li Mengxi finished speaking…

nBoom! ! !

nA high-pitched dragon’s roar accompanied by a huge roar resounded throughout the Demon Subduing Mountainrange.

n….
