Actually, this was also an opportunity for them. She Qi was seriously injured now. He would definitely not be their match if they managed to capture him!
“Don’t forget that Green Demon defeated the two of you last time. Also, Qiao Liuli seems to be even stronger and harder to deal with than him,” Shen Xing said directly.
Pei Yao and Beitang Lie looked at each other.
Shen Xing’s words were blunt but reasonable. They had really failed the last time.
Chi Jiao looked at Shen Xing reproachfully and then said to Pei Yao and Beitang Lie, “Don’t be discouraged. You were just unlucky last time. From tomorrow onwards, Brother Quan’s men will help the two of you undergo special training. You will definitely be able to defeat Green Demon. Then, we will head to the forest to find She Qi on the night of the full moon.”
“Didn’t you say that we can’t go?” Shen Xing raised its chin.
“Brother Quan has discussed it with me. He said that the night of the full moon in 10 days is the only time we can make a move. When the time comes, he and I will bring the Xuan Sect and the 117 elites up the mountain. Perhaps we can trick She Qi again!” Chi Jiao clenched her fists.
Everyone nodded, filled with fighting spirit.
Night arrived as promised. In the forest, the old woman ran all the way until she was about to collapse before finally stopping in the forest.
The old woman slumped to the ground and panted heavily. “I’ve been running for so long. Chi Jiao and her team won’t be able to catch up, right…”
The old woman stood up with a smile and looked around. She realized that she had already arrived at the deepest part of the forest. It was extremely quiet here, as if the entire forest had fallen into a deep sleep. There was no sound around.
The old woman was still smiling, but she quickly realized that something was wrong.
Wait a minute, why was it so quiet?
Even though there were few people here, it shouldn’t be so quiet. It was as if there were no birds, beasts, or insects around, and she was the only living thing in the entire forest.
The old woman’s heart tightened. She leaned against the tree and confirmed that there were no sounds at all. She muttered uneasily, “Why isn’t there any movement in this damn place? No, I have to go down the mountain.”
The old woman was about to stand up when she was surprised to feel as if her feet had been sucked into the ground. She wailed and fell heavily to the ground, causing her ankle to break with a cracking sound.
“Ah—!” The old woman screamed in pain. She realized that one of her feet had been swallowed by a thick tree root. No matter how she struggled, she couldn’t break free. She screamed angrily, “Let go of me, let go of me!”
“Grandma…” At this moment, a bitter voice was heard. It suddenly rang out beside the old woman’s ear, scaring her so much that the hair on her back stood on end. She let out a terrified cry.
Green Demon’s fat figure stretched out from the tree trunk. Its skin was wood, and it looked at the old woman with a sad face. “Sob sob, Grandma, why did you betray me? You promised to keep my secret. Why did you tell Chi Jiao about the Heart of Time? Why did you lie to me? Sob sob…”
The old woman’s hair stood on end. She was so frightened that she almost lost her soul. She reached out in a panic and pushed Green Demon away. “Don’t come near me! Get lost, get lost!”
