Huge noises could be heard, and the ground shook even more violently.
Lingyu heard the sound in the cave and was shocked.
What's going on?
Lingyu walked out of the cave and looked outside.
When she saw this scene in front of her, Lingyu was shocked.
The originally calm lake suddenly boiled, and the lake water set off waves several meters high. In the center of the lake, a ferocious-looking python covered in black scales was constantly hitting the lake water.
Every time the python hits, the lake will create bigger ripples.
Mu Chen stood in the distance, watching the changes in the lake surface, wondering in his heart, what happened to this python?
Moreover, the aura exuding from this python is actually stronger than that of the previous demon king.
Lingyu also saw the python. She remembered that it was written in the book that monsters generally would not appear in the human world.
What's going on?
Just when Lingyu was surprised, the python suddenly looked up to the sky and roared angrily.
roar!
The sound penetrated the air, shaking the entire mountain forest.
"Bang!"
Just as the python roared, a golden light suddenly appeared, the python screamed, and its huge body fell from the sky to the ground, stirring up smoke and dust all over the ground.
Lingyu looked at the fallen python carcass in surprise.
Why did this python die suddenly?
Could it be that he was killed by that golden light just now?
Lingyu looked at the full moon in the sky. She vaguely guessed that it had something to do with the moonlight tonight, but she didn't know the details.
Lingyu ignored the matter and returned to the cave where she lived. It was not advisable to stay here for a long time. If any other monsters came to attack them, it would be difficult for them to resist.
Muchen lingered near the lake shore for a while, and finally left with a sigh.
As soon as Mu Chen stepped into the cave door, he suddenly felt a hint of danger. He looked stern, immediately made a defensive posture, and struck out with a sword energy!
However, the sword energy disappeared halfway.
Mu Chen felt wary and asked coldly: "Who? Come out!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a man slowly walked out of the darkness.
The man has long silver-white hair hanging down his back and is wearing a black outfit. His handsome facial features are even more exquisite and beautiful in the dark night, especially his eyes, which are deep and charming.
The aura on his body was somewhat familiar: "The thunder and the giant python just now were your work?" Mu Chen squinted his eyes and looked at the other person. This person's aura is so powerful, he is definitely a powerful person.
Hearing this, the man raised his eyebrows and said indifferently: "What do you think?"
Mu Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes became extremely cold, "Who are you? If you want to seize the treasure..."
"Don't be nervous, I don't mean any harm." The man's tone was soft, but his eyes were extremely sharp, as if he could see through the hypocrisy in the world. "It's just that I have taken a fancy to this fruit. If you are interested, just leave it to me."
After saying that, he spread his hands, and there was a fruit as big as a fist lying in his palm.
Lingyu was stunned. She recognized this thing. It was the fruit she had picked in the forest before. She didn't expect that this thing was picked up by someone else. And this person was stronger than herself and she couldn't grab it at all.
!
Mu Chen was also stunned. He looked at the man, then at the fruit in the man's hand, and then turned to look at Lingyu: "Ling'er, do you know him?"
The man's eyes fell on Lingyu, and a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes.
This girl's skin is snow-white and crystal clear, like gelatin that can be broken by blows. Her skin is like the finest mutton-fat white jade, glowing with an alluring luster and without any flaws.
She wore a light purple dress with a bronze bell hanging from her waist. Her black hair was pulled into a bun hanging behind her head. The simple jewelry added a kind of nobility and elegance to her. She was petite and exquisite, although her cheeks were not yet mature.
She has lost her baby fat, but her clear and clean eyes make her look particularly well-behaved.
Lingyu ignored Mu Chen's words, raised her head, looked at the stranger who suddenly appeared in front of her, and wrinkled her beautiful eyebrows, "I found this fruit first!" Her voice was soft and waxy, with a hint of something.
The unique tenderness of children.
A smile appeared on the man's lips. He put away the fruit, then raised his arms and crossed his chest, looking down at Lingyu, "Do you want it?"
Lingyu rolled her eyes in her heart. She picked this fruit when she passed by the ancient tree before. Originally she just wanted to prove the existence of the tree, but now looking at the man's appearance, this fruit may be of great use.
.
Lingyu nodded: "Yes, I discovered this first."
Hearing this, the man laughed softly, his voice magnetic and pleasant, "Since you want it, I'll give it to you."
Lingyu opened her eyes wide, somewhat suspecting that something was wrong with her ears.
This man is actually willing to give the fruit to himself?
The man looked at Lingyu's dumbfounded look, and the corners of his mouth widened. He reached out and touched Lingyu's head, and said dotingly: "What a cute little girl."
Lingyu suddenly came back to her senses, quickly took a step back, and distanced herself from the man. She stared and said, "What do you want to do!"
The man seemed to have anticipated Lingyu's behavior and was not angry. He said with a smile: "Little girl, my name is Mu Chenyuan."
"Mu Chenyuan?" Lingyu frowned, "Are you from the demon clan?"
"That's right." Mu Chenyuan replied vaguely.
"Then what do you want to do?" Lingyu stared at Mu Chenyuan warily, always feeling that this man was not simple.
Mu Chenyuan said with a smile: "I just want to tell you that this fruit is not an ordinary fruit, it is the holy fruit of the demon clan. After eating it, you can increase your spiritual power and cultivation."
"Sacred Fruit of the Demon Clan?" Lingyu exclaimed, "It is said that the Sacred Fruit of the Demon Clan is hard to come by. I didn't expect that I was so lucky. I randomly picked a fruit from the tree and it turned out to be the Sacred Fruit of the Demon Clan."
"But..." Lingyu looked at Mu Chenyuan, then at the fruit in his hand, and hesitated: "This thing is from the demon clan. If I eat it, wouldn't it be..."
Mu Chenyuan snorted and said arrogantly: "The Holy Fruit of the Demon Clan is indeed of great help to you, but don't worry, since I gave this fruit to you, it means you don't have to worry."
"Really?" Lingyu's eyes instantly burst into bright light.
The holy fruit of the demon clan is a very precious thing!
She must eat more!
"Of course it's true." Mu Chenyuan raised his eyebrows slightly, a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes, "Do you know the origin of this fruit?"
"Um?"
"There once was a strong man from the Demon Clan who sacrificed his life for a thousand years in order to save a human being. In the end, his cultivation level dropped from the divine level to the spiritual level.
Because he saved a human being, he was regarded as an alien by everyone in the demon world and was even hunted. When he finally escaped, he accidentally entered this place, was injured, and died.
But his bones did not rot, but turned into a tree."
"Most people cannot see this tree." He added at the end.
No wonder she was the only one who saw the tree at that time. However, the origin of this person was unknown, so it was better not to get too entangled with him.
Thinking of this, Lingyu not only moved closer to Mu Chen next to her: "How sure are you of escaping from him?"
"It should be..." Mu Chen paused and continued: "Three points."
Lingyu pursed her lips and thought for a moment, "Let's join forces and give it a try?"
Mu Chen shook his head: "No, what if he lied to you?"
"No matter what, let's try it first and retreat if it doesn't work."
Mu Chen hesitated: "But..."
"Have you forgotten how I got that fruit just now?" Lingyu said, "Maybe I have learned that technique, so I can sense the breath of that tree."
In this case, they can follow the clues.
"Okay then." Mu Chen finally relented, "But little girl, you have to remember one thing, we can work together, but you must protect yourself."
Lingyu nodded seriously: "Okay."
Mu Chenyuan glanced at the two of them and suddenly laughed, "Did we discuss it so quickly? I thought you would need to discuss it for a long time."
Hearing this, Lingyu couldn't help but glare at him, "What do you mean by this? Do we need to discuss it for a long time?"
"No need to discuss, just take action." Mu Chenyuan said.
Mu Chen also nodded in agreement: "Yes, don't waste time."
"Okay, let's do it!" After Lingyu said that, he immediately rushed towards Mu Chenyuan.
When Mu Chenyuan saw her rushing towards him, he tiptoed and jumped into the air, avoiding Lingyu's attack.
Lingyu snorted coldly, then quickly jumped up and grabbed Mu Chenyuan's back.
Mu Chenyuan twisted his body and narrowly avoided Lingyu's attack. Then he slapped Lingyu with his backhand. Lingyu ducked sideways, and then threw several more punches, forcing Mu Chenyuan to the side.
Keep moving back.
When the two were fighting, the surrounding vegetation was almost destroyed, and there were messes everywhere. It looked like they had experienced a war.
Lingyu's attacks became more and more fierce, but Mu Chenyuan easily defused them every time. Their strength was not at the same level at all.
She took a deep breath and was about to summon the Blood Sword, which she had never used before, but Mu Chenyuan stopped. He looked at Lingyu with interest and asked: "Little girl, are you still here?"
Do you have other trump cards?”
Lingyu was stunned: "How do you know?"
Mu Chenyuan smiled and said with a firm tone: "Your moves are relatively monotonous and lack variety. Your attacks just now were all done with brute force. Such moves can easily expose your secrets."
Lingyu blinked, "Are you teaching me?"
Mu Chenyuan shook his head: "I'm just telling you one thing. If you don't have a trump card, you can't beat me."
Lingyu frowned. She really had no other tricks, but that didn't mean she was doomed!
"Who says I don't have a trump card?" Lingyu sneered, suddenly took out a talisman and threw it towards Mu Chenyuan, "Go to hell!"
Mu Chenyuan dodged the attack of the talisman, and then found that the talisman exploded, and a black smoke spread out, wrapping Mu Chenyuan inside.
