Chapter 395 The mantis stalks the cicada
The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. ——Inscription
Fan Nuoxi subconsciously used his spiritual sense to ask Xu Nuan, "You said earlier that something was about to move. Could it be nearby?"
"Yes, you guys have to be careful!" Xu Nuan was a little worried, "Maybe because we killed that one before, the others may have noticed something and are getting restless."
"I understand!" Fan Nuoxi narrowed her eyes, and the color of her eyes suddenly changed.
She looked around and indeed found several mutant hunting pythons ready to move, and a very strange toad hiding in the dark.
These mutated hunting pythons were obviously much more powerful than the two with three heads. They all had five heads, and the aura they emitted was somewhat similar to hers.
The difference is that they seem to be taking on human form.
Their tails kept flickering, sometimes like human legs, sometimes like python tails.
The very strange toad had only three legs and was very large, about the size of an open oil-paper umbrella.
The toad exuded some black gas all over its body, and the moment the black gas was ejected, it turned into small eggs one after another. These eggs seemed to be exactly the same as the eggs that the little white dots were eating.
After Fan Nuoxi realized their location, his brows frowned slightly and his eyes returned to normal.
"Sister Cui, what's wrong?" Li Menghan asked.
"Today we have stirred up a snake's nest." Fan Nuoxi was a little worried.
Luoying guessed, "Are there still a lot of them around here?"
"There aren't too many of them, but they are all elite. If we're not careful, it could cause a lot of trouble." Fan Nuoxi clenched his slightly sweaty hands, "Let's talk about it when we get back."
After returning to his residence, Fan Nuoxi realized that he was sweating profusely and was shaking all over.
Dongfang Junyan quickly appeared and supported Fan Nuoxi, "What's wrong with you?"
Fan Nuoxi leaned in Dongfang Junyan's arms and said sullenly, "I just saw some weird things, and I feel upset."
After taking a short breath, Fan Nuoxi showed everyone what he saw in the form of a virtual image.
When the others saw this, their faces also darkened slightly.
These were things they had never seen outside of this sect, but today they saw so many just on this small Cuiyun Peak...
Could it be that this sect has always been a breeding ground for these evil creatures?
But those disciples seemed to be unaware of this.
"Where do these things come from? They seem to be more powerful than each other..." Chong Li couldn't help but feel a chill on his back.
They had checked those places before, but found nothing. Fortunately, they were all fine, otherwise...
"Sir, Youning always feels that he has seen these somewhere before." Youning pointed at the phantom in Fan Nuoxi's hand.
"So, you have a way to deal with them?" Bai Zhou was obviously more concerned about this.
These things will be very dangerous if they are not eliminated.
Then they can't feel at ease living here.
Youning shook his head, "No."
"We can't act rashly against those things right now, so you have to be extra careful when you go out." Fan Nuoxi took out a number of palm-sized mirrors from the spirit ring and handed them to them. "These mirrors have been specially processed and can sense the approximate location of those things. This way, when you encounter them, you can at least avoid them in time."
"Okay!" Dongfang Junyan nodded, "Then do you have any other plans next?"
"Of course I will study hard and make progress every day!" Thinking of what Pei Hongye and the others said they would do in the next month, Fan Nuoxi suddenly had a bitter face, "Brother Yan, I don't want to go to class at all!"
"What a coincidence. I don't want to do that either, Sister Cui. How about we skip class together?" Meng Yujie came over and took Fan Nuoxi's hand.
"If you want to skip classes, count me in!" Li Menghan agreed.
"Hahahaha..." Ruochen couldn't help but laugh out loud, "It's just a class, why is it so bitter and hateful?"
"In that case, you can take our classes from now on, and we will stay at home and wait for you to return after you finish your studies!" Fan Nuoxi said cunningly.
Ruochen's raised mouth corners suddenly pulled down, "You are not kind!"
He almost forgot when he entered school. It was really a torture for him to go back to school now.
If he had known that there would be so many things to deal with after entering this sect, he would not have volunteered to stay...
Looking at Dongfang Junyan's gloating eyes, Ruochen felt a little angry.
"It's just a class, we can just find an opportunity to skip class together!" Bai Zhou said indifferently, "Anyway, as long as we can enter the assessment in a month, it will be fine. Besides, with how persistent those guys are towards us, they might turn a blind eye to us."
"What you said does make some sense!" Luoying agreed.
They come here mainly to find people, not to learn skills!
Just let things like this go!
Fei Ji thought that anything was fine, after all, she had never seen what the academy was like.
But after she really saw it, she regretted it deeply.
"Sister Cui, let's make it a deal! We can skip classes together then!" Ruochen suggested.
"no problem."
in the afternoon.
He Youhuai actually brought his disciples to bring them textbooks, class schedules and other things needed for classes over the past month.
Seeing He Youhuai taking out several stacks of books from the spiritual ring, Fan Nuoxi and his group were a little dumbfounded.
"Mr. He, we are only in a one-month probation period. Is it necessary to read so many books?"
"Mr. He, did you take the wrong textbook?"
"Mr. He, can we not read so many books?"
"Mr. He, you are repaying kindness with enmity!"
"Mr. He, can you bear to see us become bald at such a young age?"
"Mr. He, why don't you expel us from your sect?"
"Mr. He, you are too rude!"
"..."
Fan Nuoxi and his group complained bitterly.
He Youhuai seemed to have guessed that they would have such a reaction and laughed.
The disciples behind He Youhuai looked at Fan Nuoxi and his group in disbelief.
They are really brave! They can even make Mr. He laugh by confronting him!
"My dear friends, it's not that I didn't try my best. It's mainly because everyone has high hopes for you. You can't bear to let them down, right?" He Youhuai looked at their bitter faces and said with embarrassment.
"Mr. He, why don't you just pretend we don't exist and let us go down the mountain!" Fan Nuoxi pleaded with a pursed mouth.
Meng Yujie agreed, "Yes, yes! Mr. He, how about you make the decision and let us leave?"
Pei Wang didn't know how much he had heard, and suddenly walked in, "You guys finally came here, how can you just leave like that?"
When Fan Nuoxi saw Pei Wangdu coming, she felt hopeless.
It seems that I really have to go to class...
"If you find attending classes troublesome, why not just become my disciple? Being my disciple must be easier than this!" Pei Wang looked at them and chuckled.
Fan Nuoxi and his group, "..."
I’ve seen people open back doors, but I’ve never seen one opened like this!
Pei Wang must be setting a trap for them!
How cunning!
Look, those disciples were all extremely shocked.
"Thank you for your kindness, Master, but I am still inexperienced and not suitable to be your apprentice." Fan Nuoxi said respectfully.
Uncle Master, please, please leave quickly!
Suddenly, she keenly sensed a familiar breath, and this breath actually came from Pei Wang.
Fan Nuoxi narrowed her eyes and suppressed the thoughts that kept rising in her mind.
"Since you all don't want to attend class, why don't you become my apprentice first?" He Youhuai compromised.
Meng Yujie's mouth twitched, "I suddenly feel that going to class is pretty good!"
"Thank you, Master and Mr. He, for your concern!" Fan Nuoxi said with a wry smile.
These two old foxes!
"Well, in that case, you all should study hard!" Pei Wang looked regretful, "Mr. He, let's go!"
After they walked away, Fan Nuoxi and his group felt very unhappy when they looked at the piles of books. They felt even uglier when they saw the full schedule arranged for them.
They all had the same classes, and it was probably arranged that way on purpose.
Pei Wang, who left the sub-peak of Cuiyun Peak, was in a very good mood. Suddenly, he realized something and the eagerness in his eyes became even greater.
I didn’t expect that they had just arrived and they had already gotten rid of a trouble. This time they really found a treasure!
