Chapter 9 Taking Away the Beast
The demon-binding rope tightened automatically, firmly binding the strange beast.
At first, the beast struggled a few times, but soon realized that it could not escape, so it gave up resisting, raised its head, and revealed ferocity and resentment in its eyes.
Bai Yujin simply put the strange beast into her spatial storage.
I decided to just ignore it and avoid the hassle.
After the strange beast was taken inside, it immediately quieted down.
Now, all we can do is stay put.
Bai Yujin stood up, moved closer to Qin Ke and the others, and then went to look for withered branches and some stones.
They built a fire pit out of stones.
The collected branches, leaves, and dead branches are placed inside.
Bai Yujin took out a lighter from his person.
With a "click," flames leaped out, quickly igniting the leaves and branches. The firelight reflected on her face, making her eyebrows and eyes appear even more aloof.
Seeing this, Silver Wolf quickly walked to Bai Yujin's side.
He sat quietly to the side, continuing to watch over the group.
Bai Yujin checked the spiritual energy in her dantian and found it wasn't much. Since the spiritual energy hadn't recovered, there was naturally very little, unless she used spirit stones to cultivate, as spirit stones contained more spiritual energy.
Another option is to look for spirit stone veins, but those are probably hard to find. Cultivating in her spatial dimension? No way. If it were yesterday, she could have cultivated in her spatial dimension.
Now that we've encountered these people, we can't just ignore them.
As time went by, the night grew darker, and the sounds of animal roars echoed around us. These sounds were quite eerie, and I just hoped that I could get through the night.
As soon as it was light, I took them out.
Bai Yujin set up a protective barrier before closing her eyes to rest.
……
The next day, as dawn broke.
Bai Yujin woke up early and started packing up the plastic bags.
Some food was placed in the bag, waiting for the group to wake up. A few minutes later, the five of them woke up one after another, feeling much more refreshed.
"Yueyue, you're awake."
"Hmm, I slept so well, I feel much more energetic. Hmm, I'm awake."
Xiao Chuyue sat up, stretched, yawned, and looked at Wu Ruanruan.
"You just woke up too?"
"Yes, I just woke up too."
Wu Ruanruan rubbed her eyes and looked around sleepily.
Good morning everyone, how are you all feeling?
Bai Yujin's voice broke the morning's tranquility.
Qin Ke stood up, stretched her limbs, and replied, "Thanks to you, we're alright now. Let's leave here according to plan."
Bai Yujin nodded and distributed the prepared bread and instant noodles to everyone. Although it wasn't a lavish meal, it was enough for everyone to regain their strength.
"Take these and eat them; there's also bottled water in the bag."
Bai Yujin waved her hand, and the barrier disappeared.
Even the brazier that was lit last night was cleaned up. After confirming that there was no danger left behind, they waited quietly for the others to eat some bread and drink some yogurt before leaving. The silver wolf was vigilant, its ears twitching from time to time, capturing the sounds around it.
The group simply ate bread and drank some yogurt.
"Now that you've eaten, let's go. It's a bit of a long journey, so stay close to me."
Qin Ke and the others had complete faith in Bai Yujin.
After quickly tidying herself up, she followed closely behind Bai Yujin.
Bai Yujin walked at the front, while Yinlang followed at the back, ensuring the safety of the group.
As the morning light gradually brightens in the forest, the chirping of birds rises and falls, and everything seems so peaceful. In reality, however, many unknown dangers lurk in this forest.
The group carefully moved through the forest, trying to avoid making too much noise and attracting other creatures. Bai Yujin had encountered a giant python when she entered this forest a week ago. It would be terrible if the python suddenly appeared at this time.
Fortunately, no danger was encountered along the way.
They didn't encounter the giant python.
It took Bai Yujin three days to lead them to their destination. Once there, they saw a small path and started walking along it.
Less than half an hour after they started walking, a wide dirt road appeared in front of them. Finally, there was a normal dirt road. Their feet were aching from walking on the gravel road in the mountains.
My feet are covered in blisters, they're itchy and painful, I want to scratch but I don't dare to.
As they continued along the wide dirt road, everyone's mood lightened considerably. After Bai Yujin surveyed the surroundings and confirmed that there was no danger, she suggested that everyone take a short rest and treat the blisters on their feet.
"Let's go over there. I see there's an open space there. Let's go."
When they arrived at the open space, the group immediately sat down on the grass.
I'm really tired, phew.
He was panting heavily.
Bai Yujin took out ointment and gauze from her backpack and handed them to Qin Ke, asking him to distribute them to others so he could treat his own wounds. She sat on the ground, waiting for them to finish treating her wounds.
He then took his phone out of his backpack; now he was out.
Now that we have a signal, perfect! Let them make a call to let us know they're safe.
I'll call Ruan Shujin later.
See if she has time to pick me up.
If Sister Shujin doesn't have time, then she will go back by herself.
"Yujin, your backpack is really versatile, it has everything."
While treating her wounds, Wu Ruanruan chatted with Bai Yujin.
Bai Yujin just smiled and said, "I'm just bringing a few more. We might need them sometimes. That's why I ran into you guys."
After saying that, Bai Yujin took off the backpack from her back.
I glanced at the few items in my backpack; there really weren't many left.
At least, she has achieved her goal.
Bai Yujin smiled, a slight curve appearing at the corners of her lips.
Having reached the seventh level of Qi Refining, and having refined the jade ring, Jiang Ruqing could no longer steal it. Bai Yujin was quite satisfied with this.
"You've rested enough, right? Here, this is my phone. You can use it to call someone you know and let them know you're safe." Bai Yujin took the phone, stood up, walked over to them, and handed the phone to Qin Ke.
Qin Ke was completely taken aback when Bai Yujin gave him his phone.
He was also told to contact his family to reassure them of his safety.
"Thank you."
Qin Ke was deeply moved. She took the phone and immediately made a call to her family. After the call, she wanted to return it to Bai Yujin, but Bai Yujin refused to take it. Instead, she asked Qin Ke to give the phone to the other people so they could let them know they were safe.
"Give them to each other, and let each other know that you are safe and sound to your families."
Bai Yujin's actions truly moved everyone present.
Aside from Jiang Linghan, who moved his lips and stammered a thank you.
After they finished their call, Ye Mingsheng returned the phone to Bai Yujin, who took it and put it in her pocket.
"Let's go, let's get to the next stop as soon as possible..."
Before Bai Yujin could finish speaking, Qin Ke interrupted her.
“Beautiful lady, I want to wait for my family here. They are on their way. After I made a phone call, my brother said he arranged for someone to come find me. These people are also from Kyoto and they will be traveling together.”
"Hey, if you ever go to Kyoto, don't forget to come visit me."
Qin Ke scratched his head and smiled foolishly.
