448 Everything Was Transient 3 (2/2)
”Master, it wanted to become your mount! That’s great!” The Firmament Stone also perked up and said happily, ”It’s going to be easy for you to go out of the Dark Forest by riding on it! As it’s the fourth morning since you entered, you have another four whole days for you to go out and that’s more than enough.”
The Firmament Stone was right, she was able to go through smoothly all the way out.
However, it was not because of she was riding on the windcaller which could run speedily but the mythological beast, Lu Wu, which was on her wrist. Though it was small, it was scary to many other beasts. While Gu Xijiu met some ferocious beasts blocking their way, Lu Wu on her arm would jump out happily before she could do anything…
And the ferocious beast would be absorbed by Lu Wu before it could eat Gu Xijiu.
As the beasts were also inter-connected, some beasts which saw Lu Wu’s ferocious attack, they immediately spread the news to their family and friends so that they would not come blocking Gu Xijiu’s way and die…
Therefore, wherever Gu Xijiu go, all the beasts would run away, even faster than the rabbit running for its life!
Within a day, Gu Xijiu managed to run through the fifth peak, fourth peak and reached the boundary between fourth and third peak.
The Bone Dissolving Stream was flowing quietly and the pebbles by the bank were still round and smooth. However, the silhouette of the youth fishing by the bank could no longer be seen and Gu Xijiu believed that she would never see that youth again…
She stopped for a moment at the bank and stared at the stream.
After a day of travelling, she was rather hungry. Thus, she subconsciously put her hand into the storage bag, wanted to rummage out a fruit to eat. But when she took out the fruit, the mussel was seen on the fruit…
And half of the fruit had been eaten by the mussel.
