Feng Mo felt wronged, but then he thought that he really shouldn't have said what he did just now.
After all, the mistress was already very worried about her spiritual pet, and he added to her burden by saying such things.
The formation stirred again, and everyone's eyes were once again fixed intently on it.
Just like before, there was movement inside and then it returned to calm.
Feng Yuqin was extremely anxious inside, while Hun Bing was a bit... rampaging.
Well, she was literally going on a rampage, pummeling a spiritual entity.
"Still not coming with me?" Hun Bing demanded angrily, her hair standing on end.
"You're clearly not human. Why are you getting involved with humans?" Jie Yuan roared.
"You're not human either, but aren't you also serving humans?" Hun Bing retorted with disdain.
Jie Yuan flared up again. "I was forced. I was born as the Jie Yuan. If I could decide, I wouldn't be myself anymore."
"So since you're serving humans, why can't you come with us? You're still serving humans anyway," Hun Bing pointed out.
Jie Yuan: "..."
He huffed and turned to the other side.
It was obvious that he wasn't convinced yet.
Hun Bing hadn't expected the Jie Yuan of the Five - God Realm to be so stubborn.
But considering that the Five - God Realm had existed for so long, and the Jie Yuan had been around for just as long, it was understandable that he was so set in his ways.
However, Hun Bing knew that she had been inside for a long time, and her master must be worried about her.
She immediately left the area where the Jie Yuan was located and sent a message to Feng Yuqin outside the formation, saying that she had encountered a rather stubborn Jie Yuan and telling her not to worry.
Feng Yuqin had been on the verge of going in if Hun Bing didn't come out.
But now, hearing Hun Bing's words, she calmly waited outside.
When the Jie Yuan saw Hun Bing return, he glared at her in dissatisfaction and asked, "I thought you left. Why are you back?"
"My goal is to take you to the Desolate Dragon Continent. If you want me to leave, you'll have to come with me," Hun Bing replied.
"I'm not going with you. Humans are all bad. Who knows how you'll harm me under this pretext. So I'm not leaving with you. Be smart and leave quickly," Jie Yuan was completely unyielding.
"But I'm not human," Hun Bing said.
"You're a spiritual pet of a human now. You're in the same boat," Jie Yuan retorted.
Hun Bing: "..."
Why was it so hard to abduct a Jie Yuan?
If it weren't for the fact that a willing Jie Yuan could achieve the best results, she would have just taken this Jie Yuan away by force.
Hun Bing rolled her eyes and started thinking of a solution.
Out of boredom or habit, she subconsciously took out a small porcelain bottle and ate the pills inside like snacks.
This had become her daily routine.
Since Feng Yuqin refined pills at an astonishing speed, all her spiritual pets ate pills like snacks.
At first, the Jie Yuan didn't pay much attention, but the spiritual energy of the pills Hun Bing popped into her mouth was so rich that it instantly caught his eye.
Seeing the Jie Yuan staring at the small porcelain bottle in her hand, Hun Bing was taken aback and asked, "Do you want some?"
The Jie Yuan frowned. "Those are pills."
Hun Bing nodded.
"Are pills supposed to be eaten like this?" Although the Jie Yuan was from the Five - God Realm, he sometimes went out for a stroll when he was bored.
So he knew how precious pills were to humans.
"Yes, I've always eaten them like this," Hun Bing said, puzzled. "My master's other spiritual pets eat them like this too. Is there a problem?"
This made the Jie Yuan pause. "Does your master treat her spiritual pets this well?"
Hun Bing asked, "You don't believe me?"
The Jie Yuan really didn't.
Hun Bing waved her hand, and a pile of small porcelain bottles appeared in front of her.
The Jie Yuan was stunned at the sight of so many small porcelain bottles.
Hun Bing casually picked up one and poured out the pills inside. "See, these are pills, my snacks."
Jie Yuan: "..."
Seeing that the Jie Yuan didn't say a word, Hun Bing waved her hand again, and several large barrels appeared in front of the Jie Yuan.
They were all filled with pills, hundreds of times more than the pills in the small porcelain bottles.
"Why are they all in barrels?" the Jie Yuan asked in shock and confusion, looking at Hun Bing.
"Because my master refines pills too fast, and the success rate is high. She makes at least thirty pills at a time, so there's no time to bottle them. They're all stored in large barrels," Hun Bing explained. "The bottled ones are just for show. These are the real amount of my snacks."
After hearing this, the Jie Yuan was extremely curious about her master.
What kind of person could produce so many pills?
He even looked at Hun Bing and asked, "If I go with you, will you give me pills to eat in the future?"
"Aren't you supposed to eat medicinal herbs and spiritual plants?" Hun Bing asked in confusion.
The Jie Yuan said awkwardly, "That's because the pills refined by those people are of too low quality."
If he hadn't tried his best to control his emotions, he might have rushed over to gobble up those pills.
"As long as you come with us, I can guarantee that you'll have enough pills to eat," Hun Bing promised.
The Jie Yuan was thus attracted by Feng Yuqin's pills and agreed to go with them.
The moment the Jie Yuan was taken away by Feng Yuqin and the others, the spiritual energy in the Five - God Realm instantly dissipated.
"What's going on? I feel like the spiritual energy has suddenly become thinner."
"Yes, the spiritual energy in our Five - God Realm is usually very rich. Why is it like this now?"
"Something must have happened. With so little spiritual energy, how can we cultivate in the future?"
"Could it be those demons who did this?"
"Definitely. Those demons have caused us so much trouble in the Five - God Realm."
The people in the Law Enforcement Hall also noticed.
But they were different from the others in the Five - God Realm.
They knew that the Jie Yuan was gone.
"This is impossible. How could the Jie Yuan be tamed by them?" a middle - aged man said.
"We've known that the Jie Yuan is very hard to tame. If it's not tamed, taking it away won't have much effect. From the current situation, it seems to have been tamed and taken away, or else the spiritual energy wouldn't have dissipated so quickly," an old woman said.
"No, we must get the Jie Yuan back."
"We can't. Once the Jie Yuan has made a choice, it's useless to get it back," the old woman said.
"Are we just going to let it go?" the man said unwillingly.
"What else can we do?" the old woman snorted. "Since you agreed first, don't regret it now."
The man was still unwilling. "Since they could take it away, they should give it to us. We can take it back to the Law Enforcement Hall and claim credit."
"You won't be able to claim credit. All this in the Five - God Realm was done by Feng Yuqin. Do you think she's an ordinary person after saving so many people?" the old woman said coldly.
"What do you mean?" the man asked, looking puzzled.
