  "Drag him back to the academy and lock him up in a shed by the toilet." As soon as Flowing Cloud finished speaking, Fan Sixteen's face turned green.

  "Boss, don't you want me to keep in touch with him every day?" Shui Hansheng said with a cold smile.

  Liú Yún shook his head: "During the day, let him feed the birds, it's also a waste of resources. Get an iron chain to tie him up, so he won't bite people randomly."

  In Liuyun's heart, the cruelest torture for his enemy was not to destroy his body, but to trample on his dignity. A person who has lost his dignity will no longer keep any secrets.

  The sixteenth heard the words of Liu Yun, turned a white eye and fainted.

  When Liú Yún and others set off, Jīng Léi also asked to go together. Considering the danger ahead and Jīng Léi's stronger martial skills, Liú Yún agreed.

  The road through the Magic Beast Forest wasn't as difficult as imagined. With Lao Ka and Jing Lei, no one else even had a chance to lift a hand. It was just Shi Yan's and Lei Luo's injuries, and the passing of the elf girl Xiao Xiao that made everyone unusually silent.

  Every time he rested, despite his severe injuries, Shi Yan struggled to get up from the stretcher and came to Xiao's side, gently wiping her face with a wet towel.

  No one asked him anything else, for a person in such extreme pain, perhaps silence is the greatest comfort. Knowing that he was an upright, kind and passionate young man was enough.

  After walking north from the Beast Forest for three days, everyone finally arrived at the Elf Forest. Jing Lei was rushing forward to open the way when he was suddenly blocked by something and fell backwards.

  Jīng léi mō le mō fā tòng de é tou, yòu cháo qián zǒu qù, méi zǒu jǐ bù biàn bèi zài cì dàn le huí lái.

  Translation:

  The thunder rubbed his sore forehead and continued walking forward, but was bounced back again after just a few steps.

  "There's something blocking me, but I can't see it." Surprisingly, Lei tried several other places, with the same result.

  "It's over, it seems like an invisible wall." Jing Lei said as he turned his head to face everyone.

  "Isn't it, running into a ghost in broad daylight?" Liú Yún took a step forward, slowly reaching out with her hand, and suddenly felt a warm, comfortable sensation, like soaking in a hot bath on a winter's day.

  At another glance, Liú Yún's face changed greatly. As if he had seen a ghost, his entire palm suddenly disappeared.

  "Second brother, your hand is gone!"

  The hand that was visible in the clouds suddenly disappeared halfway, and the thunder shouted loudly.

  Liú Yún hastily withdrew her hand and took a look, her palm was still intact as before.

  "This might be a special magical boundary of the Elf tribe, separating the forest from the outside world."

  Lao Ka made Liu Yun retreat a few steps, and casually threw out a fireball. The fireball flew to the boundary, but as if swallowed by someone, it left no trace.

  "It seems so."

  The old card walked forward and pushed it, and his hand also disappeared.

  Several other team members also came up and tried it out, with the same result as Sheng Lei.

  "It seems only I and Old Ka can enter. Let me try first." After trying several times, Liú Yún confirmed there was no danger and said to the crowd, "You all wait outside for now."

  After passing through the boundary with ease, a group of fairies appeared in front of Liú Yún.

  "Someone has arrived! Go and report to the elder quickly!" A handsome young man with a face that would make flowing clouds jealous flashed a look of surprise, instructing the person beside him.

  "They're all handsome guys and beautiful girls! The elves are indeed the favored children of nature!" Liú Yún watched, dazed, for a moment not knowing what to say.

  "Honorable guest, may I ask where you come from?" The young man bowed and asked.

  "From the Lower Clouds, I come from the Empire of Fire Cloud. I'm afraid I've disturbed the Spirit Tribe, please forgive me."

  At this time, an old elf walked over from a distance, his face extremely solemn.

  "I am Huo Wu, the elder of the spirit tribe. May I ask, young master, what brings you to our spirit forest?" The old man asked seriously, sizing up Liu Yun.

  "In escorting a fairy girl's body here." Liu Yun said in a low voice.

  The voice fell, and the surrounding elves changed color in unison.

  "At the same time, two companions were seriously injured, hoping to get your help."

  The elder spirit didn't ask any more questions and opened a path on the seal. Looking at Xiao lying on the stretcher, Huo Wu's expression changed.

  When he saw the seriously injured Shiyan and Leiluo, he finally couldn't hold back his inner shock and muttered: "Is everything really true?"

  "This girl sacrificed herself to save my companions." Liú Yún looked at Xiǎo Xiǎo with sorrow, "These two companions were attacked together with her and suffered serious injuries."

  "Great spirits, can you help us?" For the sake of saving his companion's life, Liu Yun even kissed up to them.

  "Let's get them inside first, you come with me."

  All the way, Liú Yún looked around curiously with a puzzled expression on her face.

  In the open area of the forest, the elves built wooden houses and lived a simple life like primitive people. Everything seems to follow the laws of nature, looking quiet and warm.

  Surrounded by the flowing clouds, I feel extremely relaxed in body and mind. All sorts of negative emotions seem to have been calmed at this moment. The only thing left is serenity and joy.

  After entering a wooden house, Huo Wu signaled Yunyun to sit down and didn't speak again.

  "Damn, even if you're a guest from afar. What's the meaning of treating me like this?" If he didn't have to ask for something, Liú Yún would have already blown up. Helpless, he could only pick up the fruit juice on the table and keep drinking.

  "Your arrival, I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing," Huo Wu said suddenly. "But for this moment, the Spirit Clan has already waited for a thousand years."

  "Pffft... Cough, cough..." Liú Yún was choked by Huǒ Wǔ's words and let out a series of coughs. The fruit juice she hadn't had time to swallow sprayed out entirely.

  "Elder, what did you say?" Liú Yún stood up, her eyes staring straight at Huǒ Wǔ.

  "I said, Elf tribe, I have waited for you for a thousand years." Huo Wu said again.

  "This is also too much, right?" Liú Yún felt a wave of dizziness in her head.

  "Wait a minute, this sentence doesn't sound right!" Liú Yún quickly came to her senses. "Oh no, it's a trap! It seems that the elder wants to catch me and make me do hard labor!"

  Recalling the plot of YY, Liú Yún felt a chill run down his spine: "Am I supposed to go and slay a dragon? Or kill some god? Or perhaps rescue an elven princess kidnapped by demons?"

  "That's right, elder. I just happened to meet them and escorted them to the Spirit Forest. I only ask you to save them." Liú Yún said hastily, although he hoped the Spirit Clan could save the two, but he wasn't great enough to go die for the Spirit Clan yet.

  "Don't worry for now. I'll go rescue those two people. And as for the Spirit Clan, they're waiting for you, not to make you do something."

  "But I really am not the person you are waiting for." Liu Yun argued.

  "What has been waiting for a thousand years sounds like a damn evil door, what good things can there be? It's better to clear up first."

  Liu Yun felt that the magic and races in this world had already reached his limit of endurance. If any more gods or demons came out, he might even lose the will to live.

  "Hehe." The elder spirit smiled, "Don't you think it's unbelievable?"

  "It's not inexplicable, it's just nonsense!" Liú Yún said hastily, without caring whether the Elf Elder could understand what "nonsense" meant.

  Huǒ wǔ walked to Liú yún's side, whispered a few words in his ear, and then gazed at him quietly.

  It was as if a duck egg had been stuffed into his mouth, and Flowing Cloud's lips could no longer be closed. Fire Dance's few words were like a heavy hammer, striking him so that stars flashed before his eyes, his head spinning and swelling, and he couldn't come back to himself for half a day. His throat was dry and cracked several times, the muscles on his face also twisted in agony, but he simply couldn't say anything.

  "Isn't this joke going too far?" Liú Yún pinched her arm hard, then shakily picked up the juice and gulped it down with a "glug glug".

  "Can that old Taoist by my side also come in?" Fengyun asked with a glimmer of hope.

  "Why did you come in?" Huo Wu asked lightly.

  "......Great, very powerful......I'm out of luck!"

  Liú Yún wiped the sweat with her hand.

  "Elder, I want to be alone for a while, you go and rescue people first." Liú Yún collapsed onto the chair, saying weakly.

  Huǒ wǔ nodded and turned around, walking out of the room.
