39 Rocky Rock Demon Beas (2/2)
”No… I think we will have to wait until we get back to the sect grounds or find something to eat. Maybe hunt a demon beast if we see one?” Yang Meng answered as he started salivating at the idea of being able to eat an entire demon beast.
Sofie could sadly not share his train of thought as the only demon beast she had ever seen was a crystal spider and a fire bat.
Now that she was thinking about it, senior sister Ling Yue had talked about letting her taste the fire bat and something about it tasting just like chicken… How come she had seen nothing to that yet?
Thinking further along this line of thought, Sofie felt like she should pay her senior sister Ling Yue a visit after returning. Mostly to demand to be fed by her…
”WATCH OUT!” Sofie heard a loud yell and was confused.
Only to be pushed to the side by Yang Meng. Resulting in both of them rolling a few meters down the rough mountain road.
Not having any idea of what happened, Sofie slowly moved her now sore body up and looked towards Yue Wan.
A big body of what looked like an oversized stone was standing in front of Yue Wan. Creating small earthen arrows, that shot towards Yue Wan, who was nimbly dodging them by moving from side to side.
Before Sofie could even say anything, Yue Wan pulled out a long sword with a handle decorated with a beautiful wave pattern.
Sword in hand, Yue Wan channelled water qi into her sword as she slowly slashed out towards the big rock like demon beast in front of her.
The slash from Yue Wan was not even close to the rock like demon beast, but the moment Yue Wan slashed down a beautiful blue arc released from the sword towards the rock like demon beast. Cutting it in half without any delay.
Sofie was in complete awe from what she saw and amazed that Yue Wan was actually so strong, it took her some time to calm herself down as she gazed at Yue Wan with admiration.
”Sofie~ Are you okay? Come here~ Give big sister a hug~” The admiration immediately died down as Sofie quickly moved away from the path of Yue Wan's arms and hid behind Yang Meng, who had moved her out of the demon beast's way earlier.
Looking at the disappointed Yue Wan now laying on the ground, Sofie could not link her to the earlier figure of her fighting against the rock like demon beast.
”What was that…?” Sofie asked, hoping to get an answer.
”Ah, that was the rocky rock demon beast. They are normally hiding among rocks either inside caves or on the side of mountains like this one. We are lucky that this one was only a rank 1 demon beast, if it was a rank 2 rocky rock demon beast, we might already be dead…” Yang Meng said with a relieved expression.
”Rank 1 demon beast? Rank 2…? What is that?” Sofie asked in a confused voice upon hearing something new.
”A rank 1 demon beast have the strength around qi gathering and qi condensation realm, while a rank 2 demon beast have the strength of meridian opening. Let's move ahead before any other demon beasts gets attracted by the commotion.” Yang Meng quickly explained as he hurried both of them to move forward.
”B-but… Food?” Sofie said in a pitiful voice.
”We can't eat something made out of rocks! Now come.” Yang Meng said in a somewhat anxious voice. Clearly wanting to move away from the place immediately.
