"Friend, don't exaggerate!"
Lei Jiang had become upset and said frostily to Xiao Mu.
Xiao Mu's actions were giving him a strong sense of threat, as he believed that Xiao Mu was interested in Zhao Yan and was trying to steal her away from him.
He couldn't tolerate such behavior.
Xiao Mu remained serious and ignored Lei Jiang, speaking to Zhao Yan, "Beauty, I'm serious. It's best for you to leave, or you'll regret it too late."
"I don't understand."
Zhao Yan furrowed her brows, clearly not believing Xiao Mu's words, "You say I will die here and persuade me to leave, can you tell me why?"
"This…"
Xiao Mu hesitated and then shared his guess, "Because the Blood Demon might attack you first."
"Attack me? Really?"
Zhao Yan was clearly a bit frightened.
If what Xiao Mu said was true and the Blood Demon attacked her first, she would be very worried.
Given her power, she probably wouldn't even be able to withstand one blow from the Blood Demon.
"Haha!"
Upon hearing this, Lei Jiang burst out laughing, "Friend, even if you want to deceive my friend, do you have to say such things? Do you think we haven't killed Blood Demons before?"
"I, Lei Jiang, know the habits of Blood Demons very well. As soon as a Blood Demon appears, they all retreat, leaving me alone to face the Blood Demon. Naturally, the Blood Demon will target me."
"With my strength, after the Blood Demon attacks me, it's hardly a problem to hold the Blood Demon back, so, there won't even be a chance for the Blood Demon to attack Zhao Yan."
"I must say, friend, you're overthinking."
After finishing his words, he burst out laughing again, clearly not believing Xiao Mu at all.
Zhao Yan was somewhat worried, but under Lei Jiang's influence, she quickly understood.
It's just a green Blood Demon, what's there to be worried about?
"Okay then."
If that's what they believed, then there was no need to explain any further.
What Lei Jiang said made sense. Normally, when a Blood Demon appears, as long as Zhao Yan and others retreat a little, the Blood Demon would choose the closer Lei Jiang as a first attack target.
With Lei Jiang's power, he should indeed be able to hold the Blood Demon back after being attacked by it, leaving the Blood Demon no chance to attack others.
But that's with a Green Blood Demon, not a Blue Blood Demon.
In the case of a Blue Blood Demon, Lei Jiang would definitely not be able to hold it back.
Xiao Mu had already told them that the Blood Demon was a Blue Blood Demon, but they didn't believe him at all, so continuing to argue would be futile.
After thinking for a moment...
"Swift!"
A Spirit Armor Talisman was launched at Zhao Yan, hitting her body.
Xiao Mu didn't immediately activate the Spirit Armor Talisman, he merely left its power on Zhao Yan's body.
With the Spirit Armor on her, it might be able to help Zhao Yan block a blow from the Blood Demon.
If it were Ah Qing, Lei Jiang, Gang Shou and others, Xiao Mu might not have assisted, but for Zhao Yan, he didn't mind helping out once.
"You… what did you do to me?"
Zhao Yan looked at Xiao Mu with a baffled expression.
It was clear that Xiao Mu had thrown something at her, but once it reached her, it disappeared, and she somehow felt as if that thing might have entered her body, which made her feel a bit panicky.
"Friend, isn't this a bit too much? If Zhao Yan doesn't walk away, you just attack her?"
Staring at Xiao Mu, Lei Jiang asked furiously.
"Attack? Did I do that?"
Xiao Mu spread his hands out.
Lei Jiang questioned him, "Just now, you clearly threw some thing at Zhao Yan."
Seeing Xiao Mu not admitting it, he began to feel a bit repulsive.
This guy was so cunning, he didn't own up to his actions.
Xiao Mu smiled, "True, I did throw something, but I did not attack Zhao Yan. If you don't believe me, you can ask Zhao Yan if she has noticed anything unusual."
"I didn't, there's nothing unusual."
Before Lei Jiang could ask, Zhao Yan responded.
Just as the Spirit Armor Talisman that Xiao Mu gave her landed on her body, she began to worry. She sensed a bit and wondered what exactly Xiao Mu had thrown onto her body.
She was a Special Ability evolutive, who had eaten a mutated apple and evolved electricity power, with a code name called Electra.
Because she possessed strong power of electricity, she was extremely sensitive in sensing. Despite this, she still didn't feel anything unusual about her body.
Indeed, Xiao Mu had thrown something at her, but that thing didn't affect her at all.
This was the wonderful thing about non-aggressive Taoist Talismans like Spirit Armor. If it were an offensive Talisman, with Zhao Yan's sensitive sensing ability, she would have sensed it right away. But for something harmless like the Spirit Armor Talisman, she was unable to sense it.
"You're sure?"
Lei Jiang looked at Zhao Yan incredulously.
If something was thrown at her and she didn't sense it, did this mean that guy truly didn't have any ill intentions?
He found it hard to believe.
"I'm sure!"
Zhao Yan nodded solemnly, "My ability is electricity, my sensing is ten thousand times sharper than an ordinary person. If there's anything harmful, I would be able to sense it."
"This is really strange!"
Lei Jiang was a bit puzzled. In his confusion, he turned to Xiao Mu, "Friend, what did you actually do?"
Although Zhao Yan hadn't sensed it, he couldn't believe that what Xiao Mu had done earlier was meaningless. He just couldn't figure it out yet.
"I didn't do anything, everyone, I wish you good luck in killing the ghost!"
Xiao Mu wasn't going to say anything else, he waved at Lei Jiang and the others and then signaled to Wang Tong, "Let's move back a bit so we don't disturb these brave warriors from killing the Blood Demon."
Wang Tong had no objections, he followed Xiao Mu with a beaming smile.
"Zhao Yan, are you sure you didn't sense anything unusual?"
As soon as Xiao Mu left, Lei Jiang couldn't help but ask Zhao Yan again.
Zhao Yan shook her head, "Indeed, I didn't sense anything unusual."
"This is really strange!"
This time, Lei Jiang was absolutely puzzled.
"I absolutely don't believe he doesn't have any ill intentions. Without ill intentions, why else would he suddenly throw something at Zhao Yan?" Ah Qing shouted.
Lei Jiang and Gang Shou both seriously nodded their heads, clearly agreeing with Ah Qing's words.
Lei Jiang said, "So, he does have ill intentions. So, if they have ill intentions, what kind of ill intentions do they have and what do they plan to do?"
Without any hesitation, Ah Qing confidently declared, "Isn't it obvious? Brother, they must be planning to suddenly attack us when we're killing the Blood Demon and then they will seize the Blood Demon."
"That sounds plausible!"
Gang Shou's expression became serious.
Inspired, Lei Jiang quickly said, "Yes, that must be it."
"Really?"
Zhao Yan raised her doubts, "They didn't seem like those kinds of people, and besides, I'm quite familiar with Wang Tong. He's quite open and aboveboard, he definitely wouldn't do such things."
"Hehe! Wang Tong?"
Ah Qing sneered and continued, "You're familiar with Wang Tong, how about the other one? It's hard to know a person's heart. Who knows what they are thinking? Even if Wang Tong didn't have such thoughts, can you guarantee that the other one doesn't?"
"Also, if you kill a Blood Demon, you'll get an Energy Crystal. You should know its usage, right? For the sake of the Energy Crystal, I won't be surprised at anything they do."
