The Leopard King looked at Yun Chujiu’s smile. No matter how he looked at it, it looked like a smile filled with nothing but malice. He did not know what kind of evil schemes this Little Devil was up to.
“Little Bun, you have lived in this Elixir Valley for hundreds of years. Maybe even thousands of years. Have you never noticed any abnormal spiritual energy fluctuations? Even if you haven’t noticed it, it’s still not too late to try now. Help me coerce those high-level Demon Beasts to help look for the abnormal spiritual energy fluctuations.
As a reward, after we break through the enchantment, we” bring all of you along and resettle you in another valley. How about it? Will you for death here, or do you want to make an easy deal with me?” Yun Chujiu smiled like a sly fox.
The Leopard King rolled its big eyes, as it considered the authenticity of Yun Chujiu’s words. Yun Chujiu did not force it. She believed that the Leopard King would agree. The intelligence of a Level 8 demonic beast was already quite high, so it surely knew how to make the smarter choice.
Sure enough, the Leopard King howled at Yun Chujiu twice and then nodded its huge head.
“I knew you weren’t stupid, then hurry up and go. I’ll wait for your good news here.” Yun Chujiu waved her hands, indicating that the Leopard King could leave.
The Leopard King led its underlings and disappeared from everyone’s sight with a few swooshes. Some people said, “Fairy Yun, is that Leopard King lying to you?! Maybe it took the opportunity to escape.”
“Yeah, how can a demonic beast cooperate with us humans? It will not come back.”
“Fairy Yun, you’ve ruined the Leopard King’s fur so badly. It would be a miracle if it came back.”
…
Yun Chujiu looked at them indifferently. “Let’s just do what we can. Since you’re so energetic, help me curse the rune spirit! When it sends out the lightning cloud after us, I’ll soak up the lightning it for you! Some people are only good at using their mouths but not much else. Everyone, keep an eye on each other. I want to see if anyone else is taking advantage of the situation. Could there be another spy from the Godly Devil Hall among us?”
When everyone heard this, their hearts were on the verge of breaking down. She was going to take the blame for them? Those Wu Yun did have eyes, so why would it only target her? Every injustice has a debtor. If they were the ones who cursed, it would target them!
However, they could not disagree to the plan. Otherwise, it would be bad if they were labeled as spies from the Godly Devil Hall. It was all the fault of those talkative people. What nonsense are you spouting?! It’s none of your business if the Leopard King doesn’t come back!? F*ck, he’s just a coward then!
Everyone was afraid of being suspected, so they all tried their best tocurse the rune spirit. Unfortunately, it had no effect at all.
Yun Chujiu thought to herself that either the rune spirit had a problem with its ears or it had a very strong mental endurance. It could endure being scolded like that. It had really strong willpower.
Three days passed, but there was still no news from the Leopard King.
Everyone was discouraged. It seemed that beasts were indeed just beasts after all. They had no integrity at all. They must have used that excuse to escape.
Some people still had hope for Yun Chujiu in the beginning, but they started doubting her when they saw that all her ideas had not worked. What was cursing the rune spirit going to do? Trading with demonic beasts? They were all absurd!
Soon after, rumors began to ferment.
“This Yun Chujiu is rumored to be amazing. It was said that she saved everyone by herself at the ancient sword tomb. I think it’s all an exaggeration!”
“Yeah, for so long, other than cursing Zhen Lei and trusting the Leopard King, I haven’t seen any real ability from her.”
“She even played with the Ironhide Leopard. In the end, she was tricked by it!”
“Exactly, pigs would fly if the leopard came back! If it does return, I will eat the dirt on the ground!”
