Smart, ink cloud

After staying in the cave for a day and a night, Bai Li Hongzhuang and her companions felt relieved as the presence of the White Lion kept the surrounding area free from approaching beasts.

Initially, they relaxed once they believed that all the other cultivators had left. However, Mo Yunjue still warned them that others might return.

At first, some of them were skeptical, but the undeniable fact later proved them wrong.

In the latter part of the night, cultivators from the Mingwu Dynasty came back and thoroughly searched the area once again. Eventually, they didn't find any trace of Bai Li Hongzhuang and her group and left.

After that incident, there was no more activity from other groups of cultivators, and everyone finally let their guard down.

"The cultivators from the Mingwu Dynasty are truly formidable. Cheng Hefeng is meticulous in his actions. If it wasn't for Mo Yunjue's reminder, we might have been discovered," Yuan Zhixin remarked, unable to hide his astonishment.

Bai Li Hongzhuang also felt a sense of admiration. Just as she had anticipated, among the teams from the three major dynasties, the cultivators from the Mingwu Dynasty were the most cunning and intelligent. The reality confirmed her observations.

Compared to them, the cultivators from the Qinglin Dynasty and Yunjian Dynasty were much easier to deal with.

"We're lucky to have found this cave. Otherwise, we would have been on the run the entire time," Bai Junyu said, a smile on his face. It seemed like everything was destined to happen this way. If they hadn't accidentally discovered this cave, their situation would have been much worse.

As they mentioned the phrase "on the run," the three contracted beasts couldn't help but exchange glances. They despised being on the run the most. In the desert world, they experienced a life-and-death escape almost every day.

"What should we do now? Should we continue staying here?" Yuan Xiaoman couldn't help but ask.

Mo Yunjue's eyes shimmered with contemplation as he spoke with a firm and confident tone, "Our best option now is to stay here. The cultivators from the three major dynasties won't be able to find us in the forest, so they will likely wait for us near the city. If we go to the city now, we'll surely be discovered. Staying here is the best choice."

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Yu furrowed his brows. "So, does that mean we have to stay here for this whole period?"

With the persistence of the three major dynasties, it was unlikely they would leave the city in the short term. In that case, they would be trapped here.

"We need to stay here temporarily. I believe the cultivators from the three major dynasties won't be able to hold out in the city for long. They will soon leave," Bai Li Hongzhuang said, her eyes gleaming bright and radiant. She had full confidence in the cultivators from the three major dynasties.

Because in the end, all of them would appear in one place. As long as the cultivators from the three major dynasties found them before that, the Wind Spirit Tiger cub would still belong to them.

Hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement. Given the current circumstances, they had no other choice.

"While we're outside, let's establish a contract with the Wind Spirit Tiger cub. That way, even if we encounter cultivators from other dynasties, they won't be able to do anything," Bai Li Hongzhuang suggested with a blink of her eyes, a hint of pride in her smile.
