406 Big Burden (1/2)

She wanted to withdraw her arm, ”Hey Mr. Si Chen; your martial arts should be quite good. Can you stop tugging at my sleeve?”

”Are you going to leave me?” Si Chen immediately opened his eyes and continued, ”I am your savior. You can’t leave me alone here!”

Gu Xijiu asked, ”Are you kidding me? You came to the Bone Dissolving Stream alone to fish. You must be very good at martial arts. You can run on your own.”

It was not easy for her to perform teleportation with another person to carry. This person was a big burden that slowed down her pace.

More importantly, this person must have hidden intentions, but she had no idea what was the reason he kept following her. In the past, Gu Xijiu would try to figure out his purpose and background, but now she did not have the time to do so.

”Usually there will not be any animals and beasts around the Bone Dissolving Stream. It is the safest place in the Dark Forest. I came by my ride and landed directly here. I was planning to go back once I managed to catch the golden turtle. However, I never expect to meet you and theSix-eyes Spotted Killer Centipede…” Si Chen claimed.

Gu Xijiu remained silent. Was it the truth?

”Where else is safe?” Gu Xijiu did not want to argue with him but asked the most important question.

”Only the riverside of the Bone Dissolving Stream. However, it is not safe anymore. Other beasts may be afraid of that river but not the Six-eyes Spotted Killer Centipede. Even if you go back to that place, they will continue chasing after you! Besides this, don't expect that the two of them will chase after other beasts and give up on you. Before they consume you into their stomach, they will not fight with other beats…”

Si Chen was very knowledgeable and furnished her with a lot of information. Gu Xijiu had a headache at this stage. She quickly glanced through her current surroundings. There were roaring sounds from everywhere, and she knew that creatures were getting closer to them.

The entire thing was strange. Gu Xijiu used her teleportation powers and not her Qing Gong. It should not leave any of her scents and trace along the way. She wondered how the beasts could track her to this place.

”The beasts in Dark Forest have special features. They have a very sharp nose that can smell any scent within a five kilometers radius. Every time you teleport you did not move more than five kilometers so naturally, they could smell you…” Si Chen explained.

Now she was clear. So she knew that she needed to teleport somewhere more than five kilometers away. When she noticed that the beasts were getting closer and wanted to use the teleportation again, she was stopped by Si Chen, ”You don’t have to teleport anymore. They have surrounded us.”
