Chapter 597 Arriving in time
It is better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. ——Inscription
That place was a world far superior to the present one, and she had no idea what role she played in it.
Therefore, when everything is still under investigation, saying more may cause trouble for them.
But to Bai Zhou and Dongfang Junyan, Fan Nuoxi's words meant that Fan Nuoxi might be taken away suddenly at any time.
"Nuoxi...it's all our fault...we are the ones holding them back." Bai Zhou said with deep sorrow.
If only they could be strong enough to fight against all the forces that are against them...
Wouldn't it be possible to spend every day without having to worry?
Dongfang Junyan blamed himself, "I really wish I had endured it for you..."
Before he could finish, Fan Nuoxi interrupted him seriously, "Pah, pah, pah, don't say such nonsense. It's those bad guys who are shouting for war and killing all day long. How can this be our problem? What we need to do is to work together to solve the current troubles, make ourselves stronger, and grow to a point that they are afraid of but can't do anything about it."
Upon hearing this, both Dongfang Junyan and Bai Zhou showed signs of struggle on their faces.
"If you keep complaining about yourselves like this, I will just leave the illusion and go over alone, get close to you and use my ultimate skill, take suicidal revenge, and instantly clear my mind." Fan Nuoxi blurted out the threat.
Dongfang Junyan and Bai Zhou said in unison, "No!"
"Why is that not possible? You are allowed to complain about yourselves but I am not allowed to lure the enemy here?" Fan Nuoxi raised his eyebrows.
But I kind of think this is a good idea.
Who knows, if she gets close to him and uses her ultimate skill, she might be able to force out that bastard hiding behind him.
It might be a bit life-consuming...
Bai Zhou pursed his lips and said, "I won't say that again. I'll just get stronger."
Dongfang Junyan couldn't help but glare at Bai Zhou, as if he was dissatisfied that Bai Zhou had said the words he wanted to say.
"That's enough talk. Better get on with catching monsters, or I won't mind stuffing all of you into my bracelet."
As Fan Nuoxi spoke, he used the monster-catching net to track the monster's location.
After hearing what Fan Nuoxi said, the two of them immediately became obedient.
"Slurp, slurp..." The red monster looked at the person in front of him, rubbed his hands excitedly, and even waved his tentacles happily, "I didn't expect there would be such good food here."
"Come, come, come, kid, don't be afraid, just let your brother hold you for a while!"
The little girl who was trapped in the corner looked at the monster approaching in front of her and her unconscious mother at the monster's feet. She was so terrified that she couldn't speak, and could only make a "wu——" sound from her throat.
Just as the monster's tentacles reached out, the little girl closed her eyes in despair.
"Hold your uncle!"
Suddenly, a figure as fast as an afterimage appeared and kicked the monster in front of her away.
Then a net with lightning came and covered the monster's body, making it unable to get up.
After hearing other people's voices, the little girl still didn't dare to open her eyes, thinking that she was about to die.
Until a pair of warm and soft hands grabbed her small hands and placed a few things with slight sounds in her hands.
"Don't be afraid, kid, you're fine!"
Hearing these gentle words, the little girl's tense body relaxed and she slowly opened her eyes.
The face in front of her was one that left a deep impression on her. The moment she saw it, she couldn't stop crying.
"Sister Emperor Concubine...are you here to save me?"
When she followed her mother on the street and watched their Lord Emperor welcome the Imperial Concubine, she was shocked by the Imperial Concubine's appearance and behavior.
Since she met her, she had often heard her mother and the others mention the good things about Sister Difei, and so did she and her friends...
But I never thought that I would see it again today.
But now is different from the past...
When the little girl thought of this, her tears flowed even more.
"Sister Emperor Concubine... I'm so scared!" The little girl grabbed Fan Nuoxi's sleeve with her free hand, trembling all over.
Fan Nuoxi bent down and picked up the little girl, patted her back, and soothed her softly, "Don't be afraid! The monster that bullied you has been caught by your sister, and it can't hurt you anymore."
"Wuwuwu——Sister Emperor Concubine, my mother is gone..."
"Do I have no home?"
The little girl subconsciously hugged Fan Nuoxi's neck and burst into tears, as if she wanted to express all the fear and pain in her heart.
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Zhou and Dongfang Junyan kicked the red monster who was pretending to be dead on the ground in tacit understanding.
The monster was kicked down so quickly that Fan Nuoxi didn't have time to see it.
It was also a red monster, but this one was not as good-looking as the one she saw in the Wuxun Tower.
This huge red monster may have eaten too many souls of monks and ordinary people, so its face became like a pancake and its body became as fat as a gourd, making it look disgusting and terrifying.
The tentacles on its back were now wilted and still trembling faintly, and some electric currents could be vaguely seen passing through its body.
Several people suddenly appeared in front of it, and their aura was very dangerous. After being kicked twice, it could only lower its head and look at the ground. As for what it was thinking in its heart, Fan Nuoxi naturally noticed it.
Seeing that Chishuo was trying to play dead, Fan Nuoxi freed up one hand and electrocuted it, "Where is her mother's soul?"
"I haven't had time to eat yet..." The red monster stretched out a tentacle and tremblingly released the soul of the little girl's mother.
Bai Zhou stretched out his hand and quickly took the soul in his hand. After examining it, he came to her mother's side under the gaze of the little girl.
After reciting a few incantations, the soul sank into the center of the eyebrows and gradually returned to the body of the little girl's mother.
Bai Zhou cast a spell and sent the little girl's mother to a small couch not far away. "Your mother is fine. She will be fine after a good sleep."
The little girl witnessed all this and looked at Fan Nuoxi pitifully, as if wanting a clear answer, "Is my mother really okay?"
"Yes, she is too tired. She will be fine after a good sleep." Fan Nuoxi gave the little girl a clear answer and carried her towards the small couch step by step.
Fan Nuoxi placed the little girl's tiny hand on her mother's pulse, which was gradually recovering. "Feel it, there is a beating here. Is this credible?"
The faint beating from her fingertips made the little girl confused but unable to hold back her tears.
"Sister Emperor Concubine..."
"Don't be afraid, the bad guys have been defeated. Now you just need to stay by your mother's side." Fan Nuoxi touched the little girl's head and said gently.
The little girl looked at the monster, then looked at Bai Zhou and Dongfang Junyan, "But..."
She swallowed down some words that wanted to ask Fan Nuoxi to spend more time with her.
"I have to send my bullied brothers and sisters home, so I can't stay with you for long." Fan Nuoxi understood the little girl's thoughts and changed the subject, "But I can let a child as tall as you stay with you until your mother wakes up, how about that?"
"Okay!" The little girl nodded, "Thank you, Sister Difei!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Fan Nuoxi took out a paper man and turned into an equally cute little girl.
The paper-like little girl smiled and patted her chest, "Don't be afraid, I can protect you!"
"Sister is leaving. Having her accompany you is also like me accompanying you." Fan Nuoxi gradually walked away from the small couch, turned around and said goodbye, "Sister can hear everything you say to her."
"Goodbye, Sister Emperor Concubine!"
"Goodbye, Lord Emperor!"
The little girl glanced at the trapped red monster and said goodbye despite her fear, her eyes revealing reluctance and gratitude towards Fan Nuoxi.
After watching Fan Nuoxi and others leave, the little girl couldn't help crying again.
Upon seeing this, the paper man quickly began to coax her in a gentle voice.
In the alley.
After leaving the little girl's home, Bai Zhou withdrew his hands in disgust and wiped them carefully with a handkerchief.
It's so heavy to drag this ugly thing around!
This thing is not only heavy and bulky, but also smells bad. It's really...
"This monster seems to have eaten a lot of people's souls. We need to find a way to make it return all the souls." While wiping his hands, Bai Zhou did not forget to kick the unconscious Chishuo monster awake. "It would be easier if someone from the Qiyue tribe was here."
Glancing at the people lying in all directions in the alley, Dongfang Junyan used the darts that Fan Nuoxi had given him to cut off a few tentacles of the red monster and said, "Hand over all your souls!"
"I'll give it to you, I'll give it to you!" the red monster said hurriedly, his eyes full of desire for life.
