I was reborn after cheating on the aloof and powerful man.

Chapter 141 "Little 8"

As dawn broke and the first rays of sunlight appeared, the tranquil forest was suddenly awakened by a commotion.

Several figures carrying bundles moved swiftly through the dense forest. Behind them, a strangely shaped monster followed closely.

The monster's body was as hard as an iron barrel, yet its limbs were exceptionally agile. A head-like part of it would occasionally flash with a scarlet light, instantly slicing apart towering trees and solid boulders wherever it passed.

The "monster" wasn't slow, but it would always encounter obstacles in front of it, forcing it to emit red light from time to time to clear them away.

This caused it to always lag behind the crowd in front of it.

Several figures sped through the dense forest with an eerie gait, moving as elusive as ghosts.

The leader of this group was Fei Xi, who, along with several people selected from the Changchang Escort Agency, was using the ethereal and mysterious footwork technique while chanting incantations.

"...Dragons fight in the wilderness, their path is exhausted, Kun is six and Kan is three..."

The group behind Fei Xi followed closely, their steps fluid and graceful, steadily leaving the monster behind them a considerable distance.

The chase had lasted for the time it takes for two incense sticks to burn. Everyone's cheeks were flushed, and sweat poured down their foreheads and noses, dripping down their faces and rolling onto the ground.

Fei Xi knew that gathering the current seven people was already the limit. Apart from Brother Shen, the others had all just undergone brutal torture and, like her, their bodies couldn't hold on for much longer.

Brother Shen had already scouted the surrounding terrain, so it must be nearby.

The thought had barely crossed her mind when Fei Xi pushed aside the branches and leaves that were blocking her view. Suddenly, the view opened up before her, and she was overjoyed. This was it!

On the empty ground, the bottomless cracks resembled the scars on the earth, grotesque and terrifying, a scene of utter devastation.

"Form ranks!" Fei Xi gave the order, and everyone quickly took their positions, avoiding the cracks, in the directions Fei Xi had previously indicated.

Although Fei Xi did not know martial arts or internal energy, the position she reserved for herself was the core of the formation.

These people were not her junior brothers or sisters; she had to stand in this most crucial position and personally direct the operation to ensure the plan would succeed.

The "monster" behind them quickly caught up. As soon as the two sides met, Fei Xi uttered a soft "Break," and the six of them exerted their strength at the same time. Concentrating their inner energy, they roared and charged towards the "monster" like a giant dragon taking flight.

However, even the formidable internal energy that no master would dare to directly confront could only cause the monster to pause for a moment. The fierce attack failed to leave even a trace on the monster's metallic shell.

In an instant, the monster's counterattack came like a storm, its red light like blades sweeping across Fei Xi and her group from left to right.

"Defend!"

Fei Xi's voice was calm and firm. As soon as the command was given, everyone quickly covered their chests with the packs on their backs.

In an instant, the red light struck the package, tearing the fabric and revealing the meteorite inside.

As soon as the meteorite appeared, the monster seemed to be bewitched and stopped attacking.

"break!"

The authoritative, clear voice commanded everyone to launch another attack.

This cycle repeated itself, and although no one suffered any real harm, their physical strength was rapidly depleting, leaving them all panting heavily.

Even the physically strong and energetic Shen Tianbao was starting to feel the strain, and large beads of sweat slid down his dark face.

Despite being drenched in sweat, he had no time to wipe it away.

After raising the meteorite again with a determined look in his eyes, he couldn't help but glance at Fei Xi.

The girl stared intently at each of the monster's attacks, giving them clear instructions while muttering words he couldn't understand.

Shen Tianbao didn't understand what the purpose of such a seemingly meaningless attack was, but he firmly believed what the other party said: they would not be in danger until they figured out the monster's attack frequency.

The day before yesterday, when Fei discovered that the object they were escorting was actually a meteorite, and that this object seemed to be the nemesis of the monster in the temple, Fei told them that the monster's red light was a swift wind.

"wind?"

Although I have never seen or heard of the "killer robot" that the old man mentioned.

But the monster's red glow was enough to send chills down your spine.

They thought this terrifying attack, which killed people as easily as cutting tofu, and the fiery red light, were powers they had never seen before.

Why do you call this a gale?

"I've been to the Flamebird Nest before. Legend has it that the Flamebird breathes huge flames, making it difficult for ordinary people to get close to their nests. In reality, their nests are built inside volcanoes. They create a strong wind by rapidly flapping their wings, which sprays lava at people who get close to their nests. This is the fallacy that the Flamebird can breathe fire."

"But this robot isn't a firebird, and this isn't a volcano. How can you be so sure that the robot is emitting wind instead of light?" The old man's question echoed the sentiments of everyone present.

“The wounds caused by light are different from the wounds caused by wind. You see, when the sun shines on us, it feels warm and cozy. If red light were an attack similar to the sun, it would leave vaporized damage on the wound, like melting snow in winter, and it would be difficult to see blood spurting out. But the wounds caused by wind are neat and smooth, but blood will spurt out as the blood vessels are instantly severed.”

Recalling the blood-soaked temple floor and the two-sectioned corpses of their brothers, everyone fell silent and looked at Fei Xi.

"After each attack, this monster pauses for half a breath before firing its next strike. The trajectory of its attack is clearly aimed precisely at the chest. Now we have a general idea of ​​this monster's attack methods and techniques. I have a way to eliminate this monster once and for all and avenge our fallen brothers. If you trust me, I can stop this natural disaster within three days."

"You mean this natural disaster was man-made?!"

"Whether it was man-made or not, I can't be sure yet. Brother Shen, I'm tired. When I wake up, I'll teach you a Five Elements Seven Mansions Demon Subduing Formation."

……

"Change!"

Following Fei Xi's orders, everyone quickly changed positions.

Within two days, under Fei Xi's tutelage, all six people present were able to obey orders without question.

The monster seemed to think that everyone was going to escape, and as they shifted positions, it charged madly toward the center of the group.

But halfway through the charge, cracks suddenly appeared beneath the monster's feet.

At some point, the crack in the flat ground seemed to be impacted and split open again, precisely in the direction of the monster's movement.

With a shout of "Break!", the group once again exerted their strength to strike the monster.

The seven constellations gather their power, breaking through the heavens and treading the earth!

The combined inner energy of the six people, wielding the Milky Way as a blade, cleaved a galaxy-like abyss beneath the monster's feet.

Those with keen insight realized that Fei Xi had been instructing them to attack the monster not to injure it, but to use her inner energy to loosen the ground beneath its feet.

The earth shook again, the sky spun, and the monster lost its footing and fell straight into a bottomless crevice.

The group felt somewhat relieved and prepared to avoid the tremors and flee to a safe place.

Just then, a sudden change occurred!

Suddenly, a figure burst out of the crack—it was the monster that had just fallen in!

This monster can actually fly?!

Seeing the monster spewing fire from its feet, Fei Xi sensed something was wrong. She didn't have time to tell everyone to stay put and follow its instructions.

But the rhythm disrupted by the anomaly is not so easy to restore.

Xiao Ba, whose tongue had been cut off by Qiu Shuying, lost his footing in his panic and fell into the crevice.

"Little Eight!"

Amid Shen Tianbao's grief-stricken cries, two unexpected figures appeared one after the other in front of Fei Xi and her group.

"Die to me!"

With a deafening slap, the robot that had just flown out of the crack was slammed back into the abyss.

Fei Xi held onto Xiao Ba tightly with one hand, who was about to fall into the crevice, and gripped the vines with the other.

Two hands reached out to her at the same time, pulling her out of the crevice.

One was Brother Shen, but the other made her frown.

"Junior brother?"

"Xiaoba?"
