"I'll talk to you about it after I take care of the thing that is following us. To be honest, I still can't believe some of it myself," Mu Bai smiled wryly.
"Alright," Mo Fan said. He was not too worried about it, after all.

Mu Bai followed the insects to an area with more trees, while Mo Fan continued to lead the way for the group.
The mountains did not have clear trails. Weeds with razor-edged leaves and tough branches were blocking the way. The stems of the shrubs blocking the path often had sharp thorns, blocking the path ahead like fences. The students would doubtless damage their clothes and cut themselves if the path was not cleared.
It was possible to get rid of these obstacles with magic, but the presence of magic was like gunpowder or the scent of blood. It would alert the demon creatures nearby.
