335 Can’t Say It
Forget it, if it was in the past, Guo Rui would not have done anything to Dong Xi.
Guo Rui was willing to talk, but because he had been trapped here for too long and spent all day with a stupid cat, he could not argue with someone else now.
Guo Rui did not argue too much with Dong Xi. He said, “Did you go to the spirit herb garden today to pick spirit herbs?”
Dong Xi nodded. Of course, as an alchemist, how could she not pluck herbs?
Seeing that picking spirit plants had become an instinct, even if these spirit plants were contaminated with demonic Qi, she would still pick them.
“Wait for a while,” said Guo Rui. “Go to the river at the back of the mountain and fill up a bottle of water. Then, we’ll go back.”
If this little girl was a magical transformation cultivator, she could still stay here and help, but she was only a Qi Refinement stage cultivator. What could she do?
Perhaps, she could only help deliver some letters or whatever.
Dong Xi’s eyes lit up when she heard that. She could return to the sect?
Su Cheng’s voice sounded in Dong Xi’s sea of consciousness. Su Cheng said, “Dream on.”
Dong Xi was speechless.
“Then what do you want me to do?” Dong Xi asked in her sea of consciousness.
“Wait a moment, let’s go to the Beast Trainer Sect’s canteen,” said Su Cheng.
Dong Xi agreed. Although she did not know what Su Cheng was up to, there were so many people in the canteen. There should not be any accidents.
Dong Xi purposely came to the canteen during mealtime. There were really a lot of people here, but almost all of them were in the Qi Refinement stage.
Dong Xi also ran into acquaintances, Yuan Shao and Cao Zhen, who she had just met.
The two of them also saw Dong Xi. Cao Zhen immediately shouted, “Junior Sister Dong Li!”
Dong Xi turned around and saw that the two of them were also holding plates. Dong Xi went over.
“Hello, Senior Brother. You’re here to eat too?” Dong Xi called out.
“That’s right. After dinner, we still have to go to the Rose Palace to clear weeds,” Yuan Shao said bitterly.
Dong Xi originally wanted to say that weeding was not difficult, but when he thought of the spirit plants that were contaminated with demonic Qi, Dong Xi’s expression instantly became indescribable. It seemed that those weeds were not much better…
“Senior Brother, what happened to the sect?” Dong Xi asked vaguely. “What can we do?”
Cao Zhen did not say anything. He took out his communication jade slip and gave Dong Xi a look.
Dong Xi took out her communication jade slip and read the message Cao Zhen had sent.
“Junior Sister, you can enter the sect now but not leave. If you want to leave, you have to go on a mission. If you can leave in the future, you have to run quickly.”
Dong Xi’s eyes widened, and she bit her lip. Her expression was very serious.
What was that? She could not go out?
Dong Xi immediately sent a message to Cao Zhen.
[Can’t go out? Can you contact the outside world?]
Cao Zhen did not continue to reply. Instead, he shook his head at Dong Xi.
This… This was troublesome…
Dong Xi really did not expect to encounter a hellish difficulty the moment he came out to train…
Dong Xi sent another message.
[Senior Brother, what is the Sect Master doing? Doesn’t he care about this?]
Cao Zhen replied quickly.
[It’s said that the Sect Master has already gone into seclusion.]
At such an important time, the Sect Master was in seclusion?
There was only one possibility, and that was that the current Sect Master could not even protect himself.
Dong Xi had never thought that she could turn the tide in this storm. Even if she wanted to, she did not have such great ability. Now, she had to think of a way to contact her Master and report everything to the sect so that everyone could be on guard.
As for Dong Xi… Although those two did not seem very reliable, but at least they were Big Shots. Dong Xi’s life was not in danger.
Even so, Dong Xi still put on the turtle shell magic tool and stuck a few defensive talismans on his clothes. Only then did she feel a little safe.
The three of them sat together and ate. Cao Zhen looked at Dong Xi’s arm. Cao Zhen said in surprise, “Junior Sister, where’s your demon beast?”
Dong Xi looked at her arm. The little black snake had already disappeared. When the Big Snake asked Dong Xi to come over, she knew that the Big Snake was probably here to look for something.
“Maybe it’s too stuffy, so it went out to get some fresh air,” said Dong Xi with a smile.
Cao Zhen did not ask further. Demon beasts and humans had different habits. It was just that Junior Sister Dong Li did not seem to like putting demon beasts into the Demon Beast Bag.
After finishing her meal, Dong Xi had just left to look for the Big Snake when she saw a black shadow flying over and hanging on her neck.
Dong Xi was speechless.
Big Snake, don’t you know how heavy you are? It was already so big now. It was no longer a small snake!
The Big Snake almost broke Dong Xi’s neck.
After parting ways with her two Senior Brothers, Dong Xi went to the mountain gate. Just as she approached the mountain gate, two disciples suddenly appeared and stopped Dong Xi.
“The sect has activated the array. No one is allowed to go out!” said one of them.
