News, blood seductive fruit (8)

The expressions on the faces of Baili Hongzhuang and Di Beichen changed slightly upon hearing about the Red Flame Lion King.

The Red Flame Lion King, a formidable beast comparable to a Blue Realm first-level cultivator, was a dominant presence and difficult to deal with.

"I didn't expect to encounter the Red Flame Lion King here. It seems we're in for a tough battle," Baili Hongzhuang remarked, her pitch-black phoenix eyes shimmering with astonishment. She had only seen such a creature once before and never imagined they would come across one today.

"My dear, it seems we'll have to lower our status today," Di Beichen said with a mischievous smile, his eyebrows arched as he playfully looked at Baili Hongzhuang.

Seeing his playful expression, Baili Hongzhuang immediately understood and her smile became a bit cunning. "Does this make us a pair of formidable thieves?"

"Chuckling."

Di Beichen couldn't help but laugh out loud. His clear and bright eyes sparkled like stars in the dark night, radiating a dazzling brightness. As Baili Hongzhuang gazed into those shining eyes, her heart couldn't help but race.

Even after being together with Di Beichen for so long, his charm was still irresistible.

"My dear, when you look at me like that, I can't help myself," Di Beichen suddenly leaned closer to Baili Hongzhuang, his voice dripping with seduction.

Baili Hongzhuang was taken aback and quickly lowered her head, saying, "Where did you get that idea?"

However, her voice couldn't hide her guilty conscience.

Di Beichen chuckled but didn't expose her. Instead, he held Baili Hongzhuang's hand and said, "We may be formidable thieves, but today we're going to succeed!"

After witnessing the three of them climbing the mountain, Baili Hongzhuang and Di Beichen didn't rush. They stopped at the foot of the mountain.

The Red Flame Lion King was an extremely difficult beast to deal with. Once a beast reached this level, it already possessed intelligence. Although its intelligence couldn't compare to humans, it was not far off.

They had already asked White Lion about it earlier, and White Lion gave a definite answer that there was indeed a Red Flame Lion King on this mountain.

As a result, engaging with the Red Flame Lion King would require a considerable effort.

If they were to go up immediately, they might even be mistaken as allies by the Red Flame Lion King, wasting their efforts needlessly. It wasn't necessary.

Now that they had relaxed, Baili Hongzhuang looked at Di Beichen with a smile and asked, "Beichen, this place is so vast. How did you find me?"

Originally, she thought it would be impossible for Di Beichen to find her because the area was too wide and the terrain complex.

"I've been looking for you ever since you didn't return at night. Fortunately, I eventually found you," Di Beichen said, his tone carrying a hint of helplessness and doting. The territory here was indeed vast, and he had searched for three days and nights before finally finding Baili Hongzhuang's trace.

However, when he saw that Baili Hongzhuang was safe and sound, he felt at ease.

"So, you've been looking for me for several days?" Baili Hongzhuang exclaimed in surprise. "What about the team?"

"Because my beloved wife likes to wander around, how can I be at ease if I don't find you?" Di Beichen gently flicked Baili Hongzhuang's nose with his finger, his eyes filled with deep affection, enough to melt ice.

"I've already talked to Xiao Feilin. He will lead the team in cultivation for the next few days. After going through these experiences, everyone's adaptability has improved. I originally planned to practice with you the next day and let them explore on their own."

Baili Hongzhuang smiled coyly, pretending to speak lightly. "Seems like everyone has a strong adaptability!"
