Just as she was surprised, a strong sense of crisis came over her.
Then she discovered that there were sounds of disturbance coming from different directions up ahead.
Clearly, the pursuers had arrived.
She immediately knitted her brows. Her beautiful eyes looked towards the cliff behind her, and she clenched her red lips before reluctantly jumping down...
"Finally made it out of this crappy place," Yi Feng lazily walked while holding a turtle in his hand.
Although the temperature in the mountains wasn't high, his body was already covered in sweat after rushing around.
"Oh, there's a pool over there."
Yi Feng's eyes lit up. He walked over and tested the water temperature. Finding that it wasn't cool, he immediately took off his clothes and jumped into the water naked.
Yi Feng washed himself clean. He stood in the water with the surface just level with his waist. Facing the sunlight shining through the woods, he revealed a content smile.
Just then, a shadow suddenly fell from the sky, kicking up several meters high of water.
The splashing water sprayed Yi Feng's face, causing him to be unable to see clearly. After the water surface calmed down, he looked again but didn't find anything.
"What the heck was that?"
Yi Feng was still standing in the water, observing. Even when the surface became completely still again, he didn't discover anything.
"Probably just a rock falling down," he thought.
But the next moment, he realized something was swimming towards his legs underwater.
"Couldn't be a snake, right?" Yi Feng's face was filled with horror!
The next moment, his whole body shuddered.
This thing seemed to be attacking his lower body. Yi Feng panicked and wanted to step back. Suddenly, right in front of his waist, a head emerged.
Her face just poked out of the water, revealing a pair of big eyes staring at him.
It looked like...a woman?
Yi Feng also lowered his head looking at the face up close. He was stumped for a moment.
For a time, they stared at each other in silence.
Suddenly, a jade-like hand reached out from the water surface and slapped Yi Feng's face.
After getting slapped, Yi Feng was dumbfounded for a moment. Without saying anything further, he slapped back and cursed, "You scared the hell out of me, then hit me?"
This slap also stunned the woman.
The frosty face was instantly shrouded in thick murderous aura. She took out a long sword, and her drenched body leaped out of the water, stabbing towards Yi Feng.
But halfway through gathering her strength, she discovered her inner force was insufficient. Stumbling, she fell from midair and landed on top of Yi Feng's head.
Accompanied by Yi Feng's roar, the two of them plunged into the water together.
The breeze blew gently, and the leaves in the forest danced lightly.
It was near dusk, and the warm glow made the skyline red, whether it was the firelight or the evening glow, it was beautiful.
The woman slowly opened her eyes. Her icy cold body seemed to recover a bit in the warmth of the firelight.
Then, a youth in green walked over to her carrying a turtle in his left hand and a bamboo basket on his back.
She knitted her brows, showing surprise on her face.
She recognized that this young man was the mundane she had met in the mountains.
"That's right, it's me," Yi Feng hung the turtle on a tree and put down the bamboo basket, saying resentfully, "Do you know how badly you scared me just now!"
Hearing this, the woman's face turned frosty.
She didn't expect that before she could make a move, this young man had taken the initiative to provoke her.
However, she was not an unreasonable person. Although she was momentarily furious at first, now that she thought back, she really couldn't blame Yi Feng. Of course, remembering the scene at the pool, her face still soured.
That scene was really unspeakable!
Especially since this mundane had actually slapped her. It was truly...
But looking at the clothes covering her body, and the young man who didn't have any indecent intentions, she still held back the anger in her heart.
"Come on, eat some fish to restore your strength."
Yi Feng handed over the grilled fish.
The woman knitted her brows and said coldly, "You know I'm a martial cultivator."
Yi Feng rolled his eyes at her and said, "Don't you still need to eat?"
The woman's fine brows bunched up. Her expression turned blank as she said, "Things are useless to me."
Yi Feng's eyes widened. He stood up and said, "Fish is useless to you, then you wouldn't be eyeing my turtle, would you?"
As he spoke, reluctance was written all over Yi Feng's face.
"Although this old turtle is very nutritious, I'm taking it back for my little Xiao Zhong Qing to eat."
Hearing this, the woman's face immediately sagged. She was somewhat at a loss whether to laugh or cry at the mundane in front of her. Her, an esteemed martial cultivator, would long for a turtle? How laughable!
Looking at the carefree Yi Feng, the woman who originally disdained speaking couldn't help asking, "You're just a mundane, coming into these mountains alone. Aren't you afraid?"
"What's there to be afraid of?" Yi Feng asked puzzledly as he pulled out a fish bone.
Forget it. Mundanes' thoughts definitely have limitations. Many things are simply incomprehensible to them. Talking to him would be preaching to deaf ears. But looking at the clothes covering her, she hesitated briefly before saying, "Hurry and find a way out of the mountains after you eat. "
"Hmm?" Yi Feng raised his head.
"Because if you don't leave the mountains, you'll die."
The woman said gravely. Not waiting for Yi Feng to ask, she continued, "Something unimaginable to you mundanes has happened in these mountains."
As she spoke, she raised her head slightly.
In her mind, she involuntarily recalled the memories she had searched from that young demon's soul.
