127 Encountering Danger

Chu Liuyue’s eyes darkened as she unsheathed her sword and thrust it towards the front.

Poof!

That bright and sharp longsword accurately pierced into the livid horse’s neck. The livid horse let out a painful moan, and its eyes became crazier. With a move of its body, it recklessly went straight for Chu Liuyue.

Chu Liuyue’s gaze was cold as she turned her wrists. Her longsword sliced forward and split the livid horse’s neck in two.

Bam!

The gigantic head that had turned green landed on the floor and made a loud thud.

The wound Chu Liuyue had dealt to the livid horse was still spurting blood out, but the livid horse’s eyes were already wide open. It had also lost its breath after struggling for a short while.

Chu Liuyue kept her sword and glanced at the corpse on the floor. She thought to herself, I don’t know this livid horse, and I didn’t do anything unreasonable to it, so why was it so against me?

Cen Hu’s eyes widened even more. “What do you mean? Are you looking down on me? You killed this horse, so its pearl of essence should be yours. I’m not someone that will take advantage of people.”

This Cen Hu is so rash… Chu Liuyue rubbed her glabella. “You were hurt by it. If you don’t recuperate properly, you’ll take at least half a month to get better. You will recover faster if you take its pearl of essence to nurse your injury.”

This sentence stumped everyone.

Cen Hu was slightly touched, but he still suspiciously asked, “Really? How did you know that?”

Chu Liuyue was too lazy to reply to him, so she turned around and walked away. “A mere third-grade pearl of essence isn’t anything good, and you can dismiss it. However, Hongyu will be the first not to let you off if it affects our team, let alone me.”

Mu Hongyu felt very blessed and suddenly slapped Cen Hu’s shoulders. “Didn’t you hear what Liuyue said? Go and take it!”

Cen Hu staggered backward from the slap but was not angry at all. He happily smiled instead. “T-Then I’ll take this pearl of essence first! When we meet other fiends, I’ll be the first to rush forward and help you!”

As he talked, he walked to the corpse and slashed open the horse’s head with a knife to take out the green, longan-sized pearl. Three distinct lines could be clearly seen on the pearl.

try { window._mNHandle.queue.push(function () { window._mNDetails.loadTag("386623558", "300x250", "386623558"); }); } catch (error) { }

Cen Hu wiped away the bloodstains and opened his mouth to swallow it.

“Oh my! I really forgot about that!” Cen Hu slapped his head and gave Chu Liuyue a thumbs up. “Admiration! Chu Liuyue, I really admire you!”

Chu Liuyue raised her eyebrows slightly. “I know a little, but it’s nothing much. Let’s continue walking.”

“Okay!” answered Mu Hongyu and the others in unison.

Their team leader was originally Mu Hongyu, but they had subconsciously taken Chu Liuyue as the core already. It seemed like her mere presence would make people admire her unknowingly.

Gu Mingfeng was at the back, and he squinted his eyes. Does Chu Liuyue… really know that little? Livid horses aren’t common. Even if an average person has seen one before, they won’t have much understanding of it. However, how did Chu Liuyue know how to remove the toxin within the livid horse’s pearl of essence? Is it really a coincidence?

…

The day in the woods ended very quickly.

The sun set, the night sky was up, and the bright moon hung high in the sky.
