With the youth's corpse taken care of, Li Mo left with Zi Lingwei.
Although they knew that Azure City's instructors were already suspecting them, they didn't dare to use this as an excuse to cause trouble for their own Guild without concrete evidence.
"Zi Lingwei, how did you come to Misty Woods?
Where's Teacher Leng Yihan?
Didn't he come with you? "
Li Mo arrived at his temporary residence and asked Zi Lingwei.
"I-I snuck out on my own!"
Zi Lingwei's voice was low, like a child who did something wrong.
"What?
You snuck out on your own?
I say, aren't you a little too bold? Do you know how dangerous this Dense Fog Forest is?
Even if you want to raise your level, you can't do this! "
"Y-you idiot!
Do you think I came here to raise my strength?
I came for you! "
After saying that, Zi Lingwei's face turned red.
"Ah …"
This time it was Li Mo's turn to be speechless. He knew Zi Lingwei's affection for him.
But he never would've guessed she snuck out to look for him.
"You left without saying a word. I was worried you'd run into danger in Misty Woods.
I begged the leader many times to have Teacher Leng bring me to you, but he wouldn't agree. I could only do this! "
"How could I be in danger?
Look, I've been fine for more than a month, haven't I?
You really don't need to worry. Tomorrow morning, I will send you back to the guild. Got it? "
"N-no, I'm not leaving. I want to go with you.
Don't forget, Liuli City's teachers are guarding the entrance. I don't need to tell you what he'll think if I leave! "
"Eh!
This … "
Li Mo was so focused on getting Zi Lingwei out that he almost forgot about this.
"Speechless!
Don't worry, I won't interfere with your training. I just want to follow you! "
Li Mo was at his wit's end.
With his current strength, meeting that Teacher Wu was basically throwing his life away. It didn't matter if he died, but they would use this as a pretext to harm Leaffall Town.
"Fine!
You can follow me, but you must listen to everything I say.
Otherwise, I'll send you out even if I have to risk my life! "
Weighing the pros and cons, Li Mo had no choice but to accept Zi Lingwei's suggestion.
"Hehe …"
Violet Spirit smiled without saying a word, as if her scheme had succeeded.
"I say, do you have any dry rations on you?
I've been gnawing on wild fruits for more than ten days. My stomach is aching from all the eating! "
"Yes!
I brought a lot of them, but I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to find you in such a short time.
You really didn't bring enough dry rations when you came out to train! "
Zi Ling gave Li Mo a reproachful look and gave him the rations.
Li Mo couldn't say his rations were all eaten by Great Sage. He could only say he wasn't prepared.
Watching Li Mo wolfing down his food, Zi Ling was all smiles. In her heart, this was bliss.
With Zi Lingwei by his side, Li Mo was in a lot of trouble.
If he was alone, he could have a good night's sleep.
There were only Level 3 and Level 4 Demonic Beasts here, which posed no threat to him at all.
But it was different with Zi Lingwei around. He had to keep watch at night and could only take a short break at dawn.
The next day, Li Mo opened his eyes at the break of dawn.
"Ah!
Are you trying to scare me to death? "
Li Mo saw Zi Lingwei sitting in front of him with her eyes wide open. He got up in a hurry.
"Coward, am I that scary?"
Zi Lingwei got up with him, annoyed.
"I-I didn't mean it that way. If you woke up and saw a face right in front of you, your reaction would be even bigger than mine!"
"Ha-ha …"
Zi Lingwei chuckled at Li Mo's words and blushed. She rushed to the side and gave Li Mo some dry rations, changing the subject.
"What are we going to do after eating?
Kill demon beasts? "
"En!
We're here to train, not to play.
What else can we do but kill demon beasts?
But at the same time, I need to look for the Veluriyam City guild members who entered the forest. "
Li Mo took a bite of his rations and spoke without a care.
It was as if killing Veluriyam City's guild members was no different from killing demon beasts.
"Li Mo, can we not look for them?
Since they aren't sure you killed their people, it's better if we don't go looking for trouble, alright? "
Zi Lingwei's heart skipped a beat at Li Mo's words.
"Don't go looking for trouble?
You know how many times I almost lost my life to them.
I wouldn't be Li Mo if I didn't get my revenge. "
"But … but, those people have already died in your hands, haven't they?
Just bear with it. Once we have the power to contend with them, it won't be too late to go looking for trouble! "
"How long will that take?
Don't forget that while you're improving your own strength, the members of their guild are also improving.
I don't want to give their young generation a chance to grow and ruin Veluriyam City's future. I want to see what they can do to fight us!
Zi Lingwei never expected Li Mo to think so far ahead. She had to admit this was the best way to free their guild from Veluriyam City's humiliation.
"Alright!
You're right, but you have to take me.
I know I can't help you much with my current strength. I can hide in the shadows, but I'll be satisfied as long as I can see you. "
Li Mo couldn't help but knit his brows. He didn't know what was so good about him that made Zi Lingwei so infatuated.
But this wasn't the time for this in Dense Fog Forest. He could only agree to prevent her from doing something unexpected.
"Alright!"
…
Veluriyam City's students entered Dense Fog Forest and were split into seven groups according to Instructor Wu's instructions.
Each group had around ten people, led by an old student over 25. They started looking for clues at the edge of the forest.
But they didn't know a pair of cold eyes were watching them from the shadows.
A massacre was taking place at the edge of Dense Fog Forest. But their targets weren't demon beasts, but those seventy Veluriyam City students!
…
"Damn it!
I don't know what the guild is thinking, calling us to look for Feng Qingxuan and that damned Fallen Leaf town brat! "
A 28 level old student from Veluriyam City's team waved his long saber, cutting the weeds in the way as he complained.
"Yeah, what's so great about that Feng Qingxuan?
So many students from the guild went missing in Dense Fog Forest, yet they never sent anyone to look for them. "
"Humph!
In my opinion, that Feng Qingxuan only joined the guild a few days earlier than our brother Zhang.
If he joined at the same time as brother Zhang, he wouldn't be as strong as brother Zhang! "
"You're right!
Feng Qingxuan is a fart, and there's still that unlucky brother Feng Qingyang.
It's best if they die in this Misty Forest! "
…
Being flattered by the group of weak students behind him, the smile on the face of the old student surnamed Zhang didn't stop.
To him, this flattery was very effective!
"Ha-ha … good!
When we get back, I'll treat you to a drink!
We … "
Student Zhang was only halfway through his sentence when his voice abruptly stopped.
There was a deep wound on his neck, and blood kept spurting out from it!
