Qi Xianqing felt that she should be considered someone spoiled by her sect.
Due to her exceptional talent as a celestial spirit body, the sect had taken excellent care of her.
After reaching the Enlightenment stage, she had been used as the sect's representative to walk the mortal realm.
However, no matter where she walked in the mortal world, she had never come to the Western Region.
The shadow of that incident loomed too large for her. Back then, the tiger demon had nearly gone mad over her celestial spirit body. Yun Zhen was concerned that if she came here, first, her celestial spirit body might attract the tiger demon, since in this world, the temptation to become stronger and ascend was immense for both humans and demons.
Many monsters would stop at nothing to obtain a celestial spirit body.
Second, Yun Zhen feared that if Qi Xianqing encountered the tiger demon, it could potentially affect her resolve on the path of cultivation.
The reason Qi Xianqing had come to the Western Region this time was not only due to the higher-ups' request but also because she felt her resolve was strong enough.
Qi Xianqing had already made up her mind to confront the events of the past.
She glanced at Yan Jue.
The warm light of the candle flickered gently, mingling with the bright moonlight that fell upon Yan Jue's face.
The young girl quietly gazed at the distant emerald mountains, her naturally beautiful face with red lips and white teeth showed no sign of scheming.
Qi Xianqing understood that this journey was perilous, and she naturally wouldn't let Yan Jue get involved in any part of it.
The weather was beautiful today, with warm sunlight cascading down on their shoulders, lifting their spirits.
Qi Xianqing and Yan Jue set off on the path to find the Bixian Grass.
The maid sent by City Lord Liang had been waiting for them at the city gate early.
The maid smiled and said, "Ladies, the City Lord has sent me to guide you. Just follow me."
Before she finished speaking, Qi Xianqing stepped forward, looking down at the girl and nodding, "Thank you."
"Gulps—" Suddenly, a sound of swallowing echoed in the air.
In the quiet surroundings, this sound was rather jarring.
Yan Jue was taken aback, glancing at the maid, sensing something was off.
The three of them walked out of the city gate together.
Yan Jue slowly followed behind, pondering, "The commoners have frequently been harmed outside Feidu City, causing no one to dare venture out for leisure. Are the ones harming them monsters or practitioners of the demonic cult?"
"Not a single clue to be found."
Qi Xianqing walked forward with her hands clasped behind her back. "It is precisely because we have no leads that we should go out and take a look."
The maid turned around with a smile, saying, "Don't be nervous, ladies. Though the monsters harm people, it is safe during the day."
Qi Xianqing glanced at her. "Mm, thank you."
Outside Feidu City, the mountains were lush and green.
They walked slowly along the road and soon arrived at the foot of Fuxian Mountain.
