Gu Xia uttered a soft "Ah" and looked at them with a smile, "You guessed it right, but unfortunately... there is no reward."

The man didn't even care about the humiliation of being fooled just now. He turned around suddenly and shouted at the demon king, "We were all fooled by her. Go back and look after those captured monks immediately. I will take care of Gu Xia."

"what?"

The Scorpion-Tailed Demon King didn't even turn his head and bared his teeth: "No, I must eat this little devil. The spiritual energy on her body is too fragrant."

As he spoke, saliva began to flow from the corners of his mouth.

Moreover, the demon king was very dissatisfied with the other party's command, "Why should I go back? It's you who should go back. Are you trying to snatch this little ghost from me?"

Gu Xia raised an eyebrow, feeling a little flattered.

Not really, not really. She felt that even if the demons wanted to eat her alive now, it would be too late.

Perhaps only the Demon King has such a strange way of thinking.

The man was almost laughing at his stupidity. "Almost all the demons have chased us out just now. Only those brainless monsters have not made any moves yet. If you don't go back, who will?"

"Idiot, you'd better pray that your subordinates who only care about eating can keep an eye on the hostages. Otherwise, not to mention that I won't have a good ending, when you go back, do you think the Demon King will let you go, a useless person who can't do anything good but only makes trouble?!"

He spoke with contempt and without mercy, "With your brain, you still want to eat Gu Xia? With her ability, playing with you is like playing with a dog. Your demon clan leader has such a big head, don't you use your brain when you go out?"

"..."

Silence fell.

Not to mention the demon king who was scolded, even Gu Xia, who had been on alert, couldn't help but twitch his lips.

If the situation allowed, she would have wanted to applaud the other party.

What a vicious mouth, every sentence is full of dirty words, it's just short of having the word "disdain" engraved on the forehead.

She knew that the alliance between the two tribes was fragile, but no one told her it was so fragile.

The Scorpion-Tailed Demon King was stunned by the scolding. Just when he was about to get angry, he suddenly heard the name of "Demon King". Thinking of the other party's strength, he couldn't help but shudder.

There was no time to argue with the man. He also understood that if the Demon King knew about this, he would be in big trouble, so he hurriedly flew towards where they were stationed.

"Tsk." Gu Xia put one hand on his forehead and looked at the other person's receding figure, "What a pity..." It was too late.

*

the other side.

Jin Cancan maintained the posture of Erkang's hand, staring at the direction where Gu Xia disappeared, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.

No, just rushed out like that?

Where are the demons? Where is the demon king?

It’s over, it’s over, he can’t actually be dead.

Was everything that just happened just his hallucination?

But unfortunately, no matter how he thought and brainstormed, he had to admit a fact in the end.

That is, Gu Xia really didn't seem to plan to take them with him.

The other cultivators behind him were also panicked for a moment, but they quickly forced themselves to calm down. The few Nascent Soul cultivators who were originally unconscious had regained consciousness after taking the pills that Gu Xia gave them before leaving.

Except for the one with the most serious injuries who was still unable to move freely, the others were all in normal condition.

After all, he is a senior. After thinking for a while, he said, "Don't worry. Since that young friend said she would save us, she should not break her promise. Otherwise, she would not have given us so many precious pills."

As a casual cultivator, I never thought that I would have the chance to eat a top-grade elixir in my life.

This thing might be a treasure to others, but to Gu Xia it is probably just a candy bean.

Ever since she became a spirit, she has been able to refine top-grade elixirs with ease. Her contracted beasts are really big eaters and can eat several bottles of elixirs whenever they want.

Although Gu Xia was usually a bit stingy, he was still very generous when it came to elixirs. After all, the first thing Xiao Jiu and the others did when they entered the secret realm was to help him search for spiritual plants.

The wool comes from the sheep, so she doesn't feel sorry.

Fourth Senior Brother had given her a lot of pills before, but those people were seriously injured, and Gu Xia was afraid that they would delay things. The effect of top-grade pills is immediate, so he left a few for Jin Cancan before leaving.

“Yes, yes.” The boy was afraid that they would cause chaos, so he quickly added.

He thought about it and explained Gu Xia's true identity to everyone, "She is the direct disciple of the Five Sects. She told us to stay here and we just need to do as she says. Don't worry too much. Gu Xia saved me once before."

After hearing the names of the Five Sects, everyone felt relieved. However, they were surprised, "Is it Gu Xia?"

They have all heard of those personal stories to a certain extent, especially Gu Xia, who likes to take unconventional paths. It can be said that he is already well-known among young cultivators.

A girl asked curiously, "Then why was she caught in the first place?" She had always thought that the other party was from the Ye family, but she didn't expect that it turned out to be fake in the end?

Good question. Jin Cancan also wanted to know. He was speechless for a moment. Recalling Gu Xia's previous series of amazing actions, the young man had a wooden face and said, "She's pretending."

"???"

I have to say, what he said is true in a sense.

Just as everyone was talking, Jin Cancan suddenly noticed something unusual and signaled them to be quiet.

"what happened?"

Jin Cancan wasn't quite sure either, "Something's wrong."

He has no other advantages. Although his cultivation is not outstanding, he is very keen in sensing danger.

Therefore, they soon realized the areas that they had been neglecting.

"So many of us have broken free from our restraints, why hasn't anyone noticed yet?" No matter whether it is the demons or the monsters, no one has come to look at them so far.

Even though most of the demons were lured away by Gu Xia's previous operation, there are still many monsters in this team.

Gu Xia couldn't possibly kill all the monsters while escaping, right?

Jin Cancan swallowed her saliva and thought about Gu Xia's style. Suddenly, she felt that it was not impossible.

Just when everyone became alert, the ground beneath their feet suddenly shone brightly. The sudden situation caught everyone off guard.

"What's this?"

A Yuanying stage cultivator tried hard to adapt to the light before him. He looked carefully for a few times before he said uncertainly, "The formation... looks like a teleportation formation."

"Everyone, don't walk around, to avoid any accidents."

As he finished speaking, a dazzling light enveloped everyone.

The teleportation formation was activated and everyone disappeared in an instant.
