Chapter 48 You Can't Beat Me
After emerging from the Abyss of Sha Ling, Bai Yan returned to the pendant. He was somewhat disappointed that he hadn't found the soul of his old friend this time, but he was already used to it. Souls that have dissipated in the Three Realms cannot be found in a short time.
"Ayan, we just came out like this?"
Tao Tao looked around with wide eyes and noticed that many disciples were resting at the entrance. They looked quite disheveled, probably because the guiding spell had been severed, and they must have encountered a lot of danger in the Sha Ling Abyss.
"Well, I didn't expect to come here directly. This saves me the trouble. Be careful, you've taken a lot of treasures, so make sure no one notices."
"No, they don't know."
Tao Tao patted her chest silently, looking very confident. Bai Yan then stopped talking, and Tao Tao was a little unaccustomed to the sudden silence. However, she also knew that Bai Yan could not appear in front of everyone. She knew that the sudden appearance of such a powerful person would definitely arouse suspicion.
After several tiring days, Tao Tao decided to find a place to sit and rest for a while, and also inquire about the situation here. Why were there so many disciples, but no senior uncles? He also didn't see Song Chaofeng and wondered how he was doing.
She looked around and saw a kind-looking senior brother from the Sword Forging Sect, so she went over to ask him about the situation.
"Ask your martial uncles. I don't know either. I just heard that they went into the Sha Ling Abyss to look for the missing disciples. This time, the demonic cultivators caused trouble, and we didn't even finish our trials. I don't know what will happen next."
"They went in? When will they come out?"
"I don't know, let's wait and see. How can we possibly fathom the thoughts of our senior uncles?"
"Perhaps there are some good treasures inside, and the senior uncles want to try their luck."
At this moment, a senior student sitting next to him suddenly interrupted, only to be glared at by the senior student who had just spoken, and he had no choice but to shut his mouth silently.
"What treasures could there be? If there were, they would have gone in long ago." Tao Tao chuckled, feeling a little guilty about what he had done. What would his uncles' expressions be if they really went to Xiaobietian and saw the empty palace?
She dared not even think about it, so she simply put it out of her mind and stopped considering it.
After asking the questions, Tao Tao was just about to find a place to rest when she suddenly heard Du Yin's sarcastic voice coming from behind her, "Isn't this Junior Sister Le? You're really lucky, I thought you were dead for sure."
"You're perfectly fine, so how could something be wrong with me?" Tao Tao glanced back at her and suddenly retorted, making Du Yin grit her teeth in anger and say, "I'm not like you. Monsters should stay in the deep mountains and forests. This human world is not a place for you to stay."
"Whether you stay or not is not up to you. Besides, you can't beat me, and you have no right to say these things to me."
Tao Tao has never liked these unreasonable people, so her attitude wasn't very good either. After saying that, she didn't want to get entangled anymore. Du Yin was still angry. She hadn't been able to kill her even after what happened last time, and now she was being mocked like this. In a fit of rage, she threw three silver needles at Tao Tao.
Just as the silver needles were about to pierce Tao Tao's back, a solid layer of ice suddenly appeared behind Tao Tao, blocking the three silver needles.
Tuantuan darted out of the pet carrier and landed on Taotao's shoulder in a flash. It bared its teeth at Du Yin and waved its short arms, sending several icicles flying towards Du Yin.
The ice shards were incredibly fast, and Du Yin had no time to dodge. One of the ice shards pierced her left shoulder, and bright red blood instantly stained her clothes.
Tuantuan wasn't going to stop yet, and started waving her two little arms. When the other disciples of the Hidden Moon Sect saw this, they quickly came over and set up a barrier in front of Du Yin.
"Why is this junior sister so determined to kill? Does she think our Hidden Moon Sect is weak?"
In their eyes, Tao Tao was just a Qi Refining stage disciple, not much different from them in cultivation. Even if the little thing on her shoulder was powerful, she might not be able to handle so many of them at the same time.
"She attacked first, she tried to kill me!" Tao Tao turned around and said angrily.
She had no intention of doing anything to Du Yin, but this person just wouldn't let her go, trying to kill her several times. Even the most good-tempered person would find it unbearable.
The members of the Hidden Moon Sect naturally protected Du Yin and began to make baseless accusations: "We only saw that you attacked our Junior Sister Du first. If you don't stop, don't blame us for being impolite."
They were fearless because of their numbers, believing that Tao Tao was easy to bully. At the same time, they also wanted to show off in front of Du Yin, since Du Yin was the elder's granddaughter, and currying favor with her would naturally bring great benefits.
Seeing that they were about to take action, Tao Tao was too lazy to say anything more. He gently patted Tuan Tuan's little head and whispered, "Freeze them into ice sculptures."
As soon as she finished speaking, Tuantuan let out a soft cry, waved her little hand, and a frost spread. In an instant, the people in front of her were frozen into ice sculptures before they could even make a move, standing there motionless.
Those around felt the chill and couldn't help but shiver. Looking at the situation, they silently swallowed, and no one dared to come over to offer any advice, for fear of being affected themselves.
Tao Tao didn't care about the terrified expressions on everyone's faces. He calmly found a corner and sat down cross-legged. As for the four ice sculptures, he just left them there. Anyway, they wouldn't be untied for a while.
"Awooo!" Tuantuan jumped excitedly on her shoulder, wanting praise. Taotao happily rubbed its little head, took out a dark pill from her storage bracelet, and stuffed it into Tuantuan without caring what it was. Tuantuan swallowed it in one bite and its body began to heat up. It then slumped into her palm.
"Are you full? Then go back and get some sleep." Tao Tao put Tuan Tuan into the pet pouch, but then heard Bai Yan's cold voice in his ear, "I told you, ice demons can't eat just anything. They need to be fed with Xuanming Pills. What you just fed it was a powerful tonic pill, which it probably can't digest."
"Really?"
Tao Tao was completely bewildered. She thought that as long as she could fill her stomach, that would be enough. Why were there so many complicated procedures? She had eaten all sorts of things without any problems.
Knowing that Tao Tao would get all worked up whenever food was involved, Bai Yan stopped talking and Tao Tao sat there listlessly, starting to meditate.
Time passed slowly, and after an unknown amount of time, white light gradually appeared on the horizon. A celestial ship emerged from the clouds, and the disciples who were resting stood up excitedly and looked over.
"My uncles and the others have finally returned."
"But this is a bit too early, it doesn't seem like they've been there for very long."
"Perhaps the necessary tasks have already been completed."
