Let me Touch your Tail

Chapter 33

Yan Zhao hurriedly dragged Bi Lan out of the Immortal Workshop, moving quickly as if afraid Tu Shan Yu would chase after them.

It wasn't until they had traveled a considerable distance and confirmed that no one was following them that she finally let go, exhaling a sigh of relief.

Seeing Yan Zhao's reaction, Bi Lan found it amusing and asked, "Do you know the identity of that young man just now?"

Yan Zhao took the little fox out, patted its head, and replied, "No, I don't."

And she wasn't interested.

Bi Lan then shared what she knew with Yan Zhao: "The jade fan that young man was holding is an invaluable treasure. From what I know, it belongs to the Tu Shan clan of Qing Qiu."

That must be why Tu Shan Yu showed interest in the fox, sensing its spiritual energy.

Yan Zhao simply responded with an "oh" and wasn't particularly concerned.

No matter who the other party was, as long as they coveted her little fox, they were her enemy.

Clearly uninterested in the details, Yan Zhao didn't respond further. Bi Lan understood and said, "It's getting late. We should head to Yuliang Mountain."

"Mm." Yan Zhao had no objections.

Bi Lan mounted her sword, and Yan Zhao rode alongside her on the flying sword. During the journey, she was busy sorting their spoils.

As expected, the group's pockets were filled with valuables. Among them, Wu Ren, who had appeared later, had a Qian Kun bag full of high-grade alchemical materials, including more than ten spirit beast demon cores.

Yan Zhao separated the demon cores, putting them into a dedicated Qian Kun bag, while sorting the other items into edible and non-edible categories.

By evening, the outline of Yuliang Mountain was visible in the distance.

The air began to fog up, and visibility decreased as they approached Yuliang Mountain. It became increasingly difficult to fly.

Bi Lan said to Yan Zhao, "For the last stretch, we might have to walk."

Yan Zhao didn't speak, but Bi Lan could roughly gauge her mood. As long as she didn't resist or dodge, it was basically an agreement.

So, Bi Lan slowed down and descended from the air.

The forest was quiet, with only the sound of the wind. There were no sounds of fish, insects, birds, or beasts.

Bi Lan carefully assessed the direction and concluded, "This heavy fog might be due to the formation outside the Immortal Manor."

The news of the Immortal Manor's appearance on Yuliang Mountain had long spread across the three realms. In the past few days, experts from various realms had been flooding into the human world to reach Yuliang Mountain. It was unusual for the area around the Immortal Manor to be so quiet.

Yan Zhao glanced around. She wasn't curious about the Immortal Manor and didn't know how many demons and beasts were in the forest.

The little fox popped its head out of Yan Zhao's arms.

It looked at the forest ahead, then suddenly leaped from Yan Zhao's arms and ran a few steps forward.

"Where are you going?" Yan Zhao called out to it.

Bi Lan quickly followed.

The little fox climbed a gentle slope, found a high vantage point, looked around, and then flicked its tail at Yan Zhao, signaling her to follow.
