Let me Touch your Tail

Chapter 129

Lei Shuang, bearing a heavy responsibility and driven by a strong sense of mission, led Yan Zhao away from the Void Gate to search for the thousand-year sandalwood ginseng.

However, the Xuan Huang Secret Realm was vastly different from what she had imagined. The landscape was barren, and the environment was several times worse than the area around the Sand City.

In such a desolate environment, finding the thousand-year sandalwood ginseng was as difficult as finding a living plant.

Lei Shuang and Yan Zhao had traveled quite a distance, and to conserve their energy, they avoided engaging with the otherworldly spirits as much as possible.

But after walking for several miles, the wilderness remained devoid of any vegetation.

Yan Zhao, following behind Lei Shuang, asked in confusion, "Do you know where the thousand-year sandalwood ginseng is?"

"How would I know?" Lei Shuang scratched her head and turned to glare at her. "Next time, address me as 'Big Boss' before asking questions!"

Yan Zhao replied with an "oh" and asked, "Big Boss, then where should we look for the thousand-year sandalwood ginseng?"

Lei Shuang looked at her as if she were an idiot, "Is there any difference between these two questions?"

Yan Zhao puffed out her cheeks, thinking: Big Boss is so useless. If it were Snowball, it would have found it right away.

Last time she went to Duobao Spirit Mountain, it was Snowball that helped her find those purple phoenix bamboos.

Noticing the dissatisfaction in Yan Zhao's eyes, Lei Shuang's pride was hurt. She thought for a moment and suddenly clapped her hands, saying, "Rather than searching blindly, let's do something else."

Yan Zhao looked up, "What should we do?"

"I'll teach you a movement technique!"

As soon as she said this, Yan Zhao's eyes lit up. Lei Shuang was secretly pleased: See? Aren't you being controlled by me now?

Lei Shuang rubbed her hands together, "Do you still remember the mantra I taught you this morning?"

Yan Zhao fell silent for a moment and then looked blank.

Lei Shuang understood and waved her hand, "Forget it if you don't remember. Don't think about it. I'll teach you again."

Yan Zhao's eyes regained their spark, "Okay."

Lei Shuang repeated the mantra and watched as Yan Zhao memorized it word by word.

After reciting it a dozen or so times, Yan Zhao finally remembered it well enough.

Meanwhile, they saw the outline of some broken walls in the distance.

After explaining the characteristics of the movement technique, Lei Shuang pointed to a tilted building far away, "Now use the technique and run in that direction."

Yan Zhao began to use the technique.

Whoosh—

She swayed left and right, as if drunk, unable to control her steps.

After running for a while, she was far from the destination Lei Shuang had indicated.

Lei Shuang was silent, wiping the sweat from her forehead. She thought: With this aptitude, how did that little fox manage to teach her so much? What a good senior sister. Why didn't I meet her earlier?

Lei Shuang came back to her senses and was about to catch up with Yan Zhao when suddenly the ground beside her caved in, and several black, emaciated otherworldly spirits crawled out from beneath the earth, blocking her path.
