Chapter 270: Inappropriate Activities
Li Xiaoxiao looked at the group of familiar yet unfamiliar faces in front of her, feeling mixed emotions.
The days when they were together in Shushan Xianzong flashed through his mind like a revolving lantern, but now her identity was complicated and her situation was full of dangers, so he dared not recognize her easily.
She suppressed her emotions and pretended to be indifferent: "Since you are a disciple of Shushan, I will advise you kindly. It is not suitable to move around here today. You should take care of yourselves." After that, she wanted to bypass the crowd and continue forward.
Ma Zi stepped aside respectfully.
When Li Xiaoxiao passed by Lu Zhengxin, he was slightly startled. Although the person in front of him looked and smelled like a stranger, he felt a sense of familiarity, but he couldn't tell where he felt familiar.
Li Xiaoxiao kept walking and his figure soon disappeared over the other side of the mountain.
Lu Zhengxin looked in the direction she left and did not come back to his senses for a long time.
Seeing this, Ma Zi patted his shoulder and said, "Don't think about it. These seniors have always acted mysteriously. Let's proceed according to the plan."
Lu Zhengxin wanted to nod, but the inexplicable familiarity lingered in his mind, so he said, "But the senior just said that there is danger in the forest."
Ma Zi waved her hand disapprovingly, "We can't cancel the event just because of her words. Where will the reputation of our Shushan Immortal Sect be? What about our mission? Don't we need to do the assessment? Ask others if they agree."
Ma Zi looked behind him, and the others could only agree with him.
Lu Zhengxin felt a little uneasy, but he couldn't refute it anymore, after all, he was not the team leader.
Ma Zi saw his uneasiness and continued, "Don't worry, Master and his men will be here soon, and they can handle any danger."
In this way, everyone continued to walk deeper into the forest.
Soon a thick fog filled the surroundings, and countless pairs of eyes were watching them in the fog.
"Something's wrong. Normally, it's impossible for such a thick fog to form in such an area."
"Let's retreat quickly!"
"Ah."
But just as they were about to turn around, all kinds of evil creatures whizzed out of the fog, and everyone suddenly became panicked.
Someone shouted in horror: "How could this happen!"
While fending off the attack, Lu Zhengxin regretted not following Li Xiaoxiao's advice.
The sword in Lu Zhengxin's hand danced quickly, drawing sharp sword shadows, trying to drive back the evil creatures that were rushing in like a tide.
Ma Zi beside her was also giving it her all. The spells in her hands kept changing. Talismans flew out of her hands, emitting dazzling light in the mist. Each talisman could instantly knock away an evil spirit.
The new disciples had obviously never experienced such a scene, and exclamations of surprise came one after another.
One of the disciples, a young man named Lu Hu, staggered in panic and was suddenly bitten by a wolf-like evil spirit. Blood splattered everywhere and he fell to the ground without a sound.
Another female disciple tried to rescue them, but was also entangled by several evil spirits. Her shrill cries were soon drowned out by the noisy sounds of fighting.
"Everyone, stand back to back and don't disperse!" Lu Zhengxin shouted loudly, with a bit of anxiety and helplessness in his voice.
He knew that the team was now in a desperate situation. These demons were not only numerous, but also very powerful. They were definitely not something they and these fledgling disciples could resist.
The battle became more and more intense, and everyone gradually became exhausted.
Two more disciples fell under the crazy attack of the evil spirits, and the rest fled in the chaos.
Lu Zhengxin was extremely anxious. He looked everywhere for Ma Zi, only to see that Ma Zi was being besieged by several powerful demons and had many injuries on his body.
His cultivation was not as good as Ma Zi's, so it was impossible for him to go to support. He gritted his teeth and held on, hoping that reinforcements would arrive soon.
Perhaps it was because his thoughts were too fast and strong, and with God's mercy, his uncles finally arrived.
The leading uncle Xuanfeng held a magic sword in his hand. The sword was glowing with light and exuded a chilling aura.
He shouted loudly, swung the magic sword, and a dazzling sword energy instantly slashed towards the demons. Wherever it went, the demons turned into ashes.
The other two uncles also displayed their magical powers, and for a moment, the entire forest was illuminated by the light of various spells.
One uncle cast an ice spell to freeze the evil spirits instantly; the other attacked with thunder. The roaring thunder and the screams of the evil spirits made the bloody battlefield even more thrilling.
Under the powerful attack of the uncle masters, the demons gradually lost and began to flee in all directions.
Uncle Master Xuanfeng scanned the battlefield with a sharp gaze. Seeing the miserable appearance of Lu Zhengxin and others, his face became terribly gloomy.
"What's going on? Why are we attacked by so many evil spirits here?" Uncle Master Xuanfeng asked sternly.
Ma Zi's face was filled with guilt. He took a step forward and told Li Xiaoxiao everything that happened during his previous encounter.
After hearing this, Master Xuanfeng frowned and said after thinking for a moment, "It seems that there must be something fishy behind this. That woman was able to sense the danger in advance, she is definitely not an ordinary person. You acted rashly this time and ignored the advice. Not only did you lose several disciples, but you also fell into such a dangerous situation. It is really reckless!"
Ma Zi looked pale, lowered his head and said: "Uncle Master, it was my inconsiderateness. I only wanted to complete the activity as planned, and I didn't take the warning of my predecessor seriously, which led to such a disaster."
Uncle Master Xuanfeng sighed and said, "Forget it. Now that things have come to this, let's take the bodies of the injured disciples back first. We, the Shushan Immortal Sect, must thoroughly investigate this incident and must not let these evil spirits run rampant!"
With heavy hearts, everyone packed up the bodies of their companions and dragged their tired bodies slowly away from the forest filled with blood and fear.
Li Xiaoxiao's figure and the conspiracy behind this sudden attack are like a heavy haze, hanging over the hearts of every Shushan disciple.
They took a spaceship back to Shushan Immortal Sect.
Li Xiaoxiao watched the Shushan spaceship flying overhead, hesitating whether to follow, and finally shook her head.
The most important thing at the moment is to sort out the chaotic energy in her body. She doesn't want to explode without any sound.
The Blood Shadow Sect originally wanted to wipe out all the Shushan disciples in one fell swoop, but they didn't expect that three Nascent Souls would arrive so soon. This forced them to put their plans aside for the time being and retreat in hiding.
Six days later, everyone returned to Shushan. They left with high spirits and vigor, but returned dejected and full of sorrow.
As soon as Lu Zhengxin got off the spaceship, he went straight to his residence. His mind was full of that figure and the tragic situation of his dead fellow disciples.
All the Shushan disciples who heard the news sighed. You have to know that those who went out for training this time were the best among them, and the atmosphere was solemn and depressing.
Xuanfeng immediately summoned the elders to discuss countermeasures, and Ma Zi, as the team leader, was punished by house arrest for reflection after the incident.
