607: C607

C607

Night fell. Aside from the specks of starlight in the sky, the surroundings were completely dark.

In this kind of night, even Ye Xiu's line of sight wasn't more than five meters away.

Of course, this was also because Ye Xiu had a certain level of cultivation, so if he was an ordinary person, his vision would definitely not exceed one meter in this kind of darkness.

Aww!

Just as it was deep into the night, a strange shout suddenly reached Ye Xiu and his group's ears.

The sound was very strange, and it was very sudden, causing both Ye Xiu and Qin Rouer to wake up.

"What is that sound?"

Being startled awake by the sudden sound, Ye Xiu became alert.

However, with his senses, he naturally wouldn't discover anything strange, and thus, he immediately asked Ye Long about it when he was on guard.

But even if it was heard, Ye Long did not make a sound, which meant that it was extremely safe in its eyes, at least there was nothing that could threaten Ye Xiu's safety.

That said, even if Ye Xiu asked, Ye Long's answer would naturally be normal.

"Qin Rouer, did the poison dragon notice anything wrong with the weird cries just now?" Looking at Qin Rouer who had similarly opened his eyes, Ye Xiu asked.

"No, nothing." Qin Rouer replied.

With regards to the strange sound just now, Qin Rouer had heard it loud and clear, but when she asked the Poison Dragon about it, he said that she had not discovered anything.

It was obvious that there was a strange sound just now, and everyone could hear it clearly. How come Ye Long and the Poison Dragon did not discover anything?

"Ye Long, continue to watch your surroundings." Ye Xiu reminded.

Of course, because strange things had already happened, Ye Xiu definitely did not have any intentions of resting anymore.

What if something managed to avoid Ye Long and the poisonous dragon's senses, at that time, both Ye Xiu and the poisonous dragon would be dead for sure.

"Qin Rouer, continue resting!" When Ye Xiu saw that Qin Rouer seemed to have lost the desire to rest, he reminded her.

"Ye Xiu, it's better if you rest. I'll help to keep watch of the surroundings, I feel that this place is weird." Qin Rouer muttered as he looked around at the pitch-black darkness.

"Strange?"

With regards to Qin Rouer's words, Ye Xiu actually did not have the same feeling. Other than the strange sounds from before, he did not hear anything else that was out of the ordinary.

After all, they were in the wilderness, so it was impossible for them to be safe inside the city. Therefore, even if there was something wrong with the surroundings, it was very normal for Ye Xiu.

"Qin Rouer, it's better if you rest, I'll be on guard. If you really meet with danger, I can send us to a safe place in time." Ye Xiu said.

"Alright!"

Hearing that, Qin Rouer did not refute anymore, and as for the safe place that Ye Xiu had mentioned, she naturally understood as well.

Just like this, Qin Rouer closed his eyes once again, and with Ye Xiu's words, he stood up from the ground, and started to look all around.

Although Ye Xiu did not feel that there was anything strange about the surroundings, but since Qin Rouer said it was strange, he naturally kept it in mind.

"Ye Long, watch your surroundings carefully and capture all the auras. Even if it's just a little bit, don't let it go." Ye Xiu ordered.

"Yes, master!"

Ye Long replied, following that it began to pay close attention to its surroundings.

Aww!

As time passed minute by minute, just as Ye Xiu was planning to return to his original place and close his eyes to rest, that strange voice suddenly sounded out again.

"Did you hear that!"

This time, when Ye Xiu heard the voice, he hurriedly asked Ye Long this question.

"Master, this should be the voice of the wind." Ye Long replied.

"The sound of the wind?"

Ye Xiu was startled, although there was wind around, it was not strong, and if it was the sound of the wind, then why did it sound so late after so long?

"Ye Xiu, the voice just now sounded again?" Just as Ye Xiu was deep in thought, Qin Rouer once again opened his eyes and looked at Ye Xiu, who was standing in front of him, and asked.

"En!"

In response to Qin Rouer's inquiry, Ye Xiu lightly nodded his head.

Qin Rouer must have heard that voice just now, so there was no need to hide from her.

"What is this sound? Why is it so strange and sudden?" Qin Rouer stood up from the ground.

"I'm not sure, Ye Long said that it was the wind, but I feel that it's not the case." Ye Xiu replied.

"Wind?"

Hearing this, Qin Rouer carefully thought back to the two strange sounds he had heard, and then shook his head: "I don't think it was the wind either, because if it's the wind, then why did it sound like this, and so suddenly?"

Regarding Qin Rouer's explanation, Ye Xiu nodded his head in agreement. But if it wasn't the sound of the wind, then what kind of sound was it?

"Master, it's the Ghost Scorpion Spider."

And just when Ye Xiu, Qin Rouer and even Ye Long did not know what the voice of the Poison Dragon was, it suddenly rang out in Qin Rouer's mind.

"What?"

Hearing this, Qin Rouer was slightly stunned. That Ghost Face Scorpion Spider, she had never heard of it before.

"Poison Dragon, please explain it more clearly. Ghost face scorpion spider, what kind of Profound Beast is this? Is it very powerful?" Qin Rouer hurriedly asked.

Although Qin Rouer did not know what a Ghost Face Scorpion Spider was, when he heard the name, he immediately felt that it was not a kind Profound Beast.

Actually, Qin Rouer still had one more question, and that was to emit this voice a second time. Since the Poison Dragon knew what was making this sound, why did it only say it now?

Of course, since the Poison Dragon had said so, Qin Rouer wouldn't ask anymore. After all, her current strength was still low, so even if the Poison Dragon recognized her as its master, he might not necessarily listen to her commands.

Compared to Ye Xiu, Qin Rouer was naturally much easier to deal with, so she wouldn't mind when the Poison Dragon replied without a word.

But if it was Ye Xiu, then Ye Long would deal with it casually, and he would not let it go.

As the master, it was very easy to punish his Blood Link Profound Beast. Just by thinking about it, it was already painful enough.

That was the reason, for all Blood Link Profound Beast, they would obediently listen to their master's words. Someone like the Poison Dragon was a unique existence.

Therefore, the Poison Dragon had already mercifully said the Ghost Faced Scorpion Spider, so even if Qin Rouer asked again, it didn't want to explain.

From its point of view, it was already doing its duty for it to warn the two of them. As for the specifics on how it would deal with this Ghost Scorpion Spider, it did not care.1

Seeing that the Poison Dragon had once again ignored him, Qin Rouer was naturally a little angry, but she knew the gap between her and the Poison Dragon was too big, so she didn't bother with it.

"Ye Xiu, the poisonous dragon just told me a name. It said that the two cries just now seemed to have come from a Profound Beast called the Ghost Scorpion Spider." Qin Rouer told Ye Xiu the truth.

"Ghost face scorpion spider?"

Hearing this name, Ye Xiu, who was not on the continent, was even more unclear.

"How is this possible, how can there be such a Profound Beast here?"

But just when Ye Xiu was about to ask Ye Long about it, Ye Long's voice came out.

So much so that Ye Long's tone contained shock and disbelief, as if he had heard a terrifying name.

"Ye Long, you know about this Ghost Faced Scorpion?" Hearing Ye Long's surprised voice, Ye Xiu hurriedly asked.

"Master, if it's really the Ghost Faced Scorpion, then we're in trouble!" Ye Long replied with a slightly serious tone.

"Be more specific!" Ye Xiu said fiercely.

Since Ye Long said there was trouble, then there was no doubt about this matter. However, Ye Xiu was not sure why it would be troublesome if he met with this kind of Profound Beast, could it be that this Profound Beast was very powerful?

Although Ye Xiu was going deeper inland, the place they were at was only a little deeper than their Tiantang City, so there shouldn't be any super strong Profound Beast here.

Of course, there was no absolute guarantee that something as powerful as a Profound Beast would actually run from the interior to the Outer Land. If that was the case, then whoever encountered it would be unlucky.

"Master, this Ghost Scorpion Spider is a type of strange looking spider. Normal spiders don't have a tail, but the Ghost Scorpion Spider has a scorpion-like tail. At the same time, it has some patterns on its back, similar to a face." Ye Long explained.

However, even after hearing this explanation, Ye Xiu still could not tell what was so special about the Ghost Scorpion Spider.

In other words, even if the Ghost Face Scorpion spider was at Sixth Level Profound Beast level 7, it was not certain that it would be finished. After all, Ye Xiu could completely hide inside the Nine Profound Exquisite Pagoda and quietly wait for the spider to leave.

This was not a cave, so as long as he hid there, he would definitely be able to leave.

Of course, this was a normal situation, if the Profound Beast liked to stay in one place for a long time, that would be a different story.

Like this, even if Ye Xiu took Qin Rouer and the other two Sirius Dog to hide inside the Nine Profound Exquisite Pagoda, they would still be trapped inside the tower and unable to leave.

"Master, the Demonic Scorpion Spiders use their Qi to lock onto their target. Once their target is locked on to, even if they escape to the ends of the earth, they will still be caught, unless they are completely killed." Ye Long replied.

"What? Kill them all?"

With regards to Ye Long's explanation, Ye Xiu didn't really understand. What do you mean kill them cleanly, shouldn't killing them be enough?

"Master, the Demonic Scorpion Spiders are the living species of Profound Beast, and they aren't considered big. At most, one of them is the size of a baby's fist, so unless we kill them all, the people they target will have nowhere to run." When Ye Long realized that it did not understand its own meaning, it continued to explain.
