The Lovely Heiress Is Actually A God Beast

Chapter 1691: The Horse-Faced Bell Is Occupied

At the same time, the Horse-Faced Bell shook wildly, and a fiery red fox flew out from it, the fox was illusory and transparent, but when it opened its mouth, it solidly bit through the vine.

The broken vine fell to the ground and turned into little points of light, while the dry branches and budding new leaves all quickly revealed a transparent base, so they were also illusory and transparent, it was just previously they were too solid, which caused the mistaken belief that they really existed.

Feng Qi squinted, scrutinizing the madness of the vine retreating into the dry branches, and sneered: "Just a clone, I wonder where your main body is hiding?"

The dry branch seemed worried that someone might trace it back to its main body, or maybe truly afraid and apprehensive of Feng Qi’s presence, it became increasingly blurry and transparent.

"Tsk! Is it trying to escape?"

Feng Qi lunged forward and grasped the dry branch tightly with her claws, finally causing the branch’s transparency to cease decreasing, becoming stiff and immobile.

Little Taotie gradually regained consciousness, waking up to see Feng Qi clutching a dry branch, looking confused.

Feng Qi: "Quick, put it into the Horse-Faced Bell."

Though unclear about what had happened, Little Taotie, briefly losing awareness, knew she must’ve been hypnotized or controlled, with Feng Qi saving her.

Without delay, she promptly went to store the dry branch inside the Horse-Faced Bell.

Feng Qi let out a sigh, collapsing onto Little Taotie’s shoulder, "Almost exhausted my spiritual power."

"What just happened?"

With Feng Qi’s explanation, Little Taotie then comprehended the mischief of that dry branch.

"Are you saying this is merely a clone; there could be a large tree existing, the large tree being the dry branch’s main body."

Feng Qi nodded: "Maybe, finding that large tree could lead to finding your Head Grandpa."

"Why?"

Feng Qi sniffed, "I sensed that old fellow’s scent on the dry branch. It’s faint, should have come from the main body."

"Really!" Little Taotie’s eyes lit up: "Is Head Grandpa okay?"

Feng Qi shook her head: "Not sure, he probably isn’t dead, but his condition is unknown."

"Should I release it now and press strenuously?" Little Taotie said fiercely in her childish voice.

Feng Qi shook her head: "No, if you let it out, what if it escapes directly? It’s very cunning, if I hadn’t held it down tightly earlier, it would’ve turned into a swimming snake and fled."

"Then what should we do?" Little Taotie asked anxiously.

"I’ll have my apprentice to interrogate it, don’t worry, she’ll certainly get an answer out."

Little Taotie worried: "She doesn’t seem like someone proficient at stern interrogation."

Feng Qi cast an eye at her: "And you think you’re adept at harsh interrogation?"

Little Taotie waved her small fists: "I’m strong, if it doesn’t speak the truth, I’ll snap it! I’ll even set fire to it, burn the dry branch into ashes!"

"Not much destructive power, since it isn’t physical, be careful it uses the Illusion Technique again to confuse you, otherwise, you might end up snapping your own thigh, and what you burn might just be yourself."

Little Taotie: "...Sounds a bit scary."

"Relax, even if my apprentice’s soft-hearted, her husband certainly isn’t."

Little Taotie sighed: "Alright, hope they can get some answers."

After a long time, Feng Qi kept waiting but received no news from any Ghost in the Horse-Faced Bell.

Feng Qi frowned: "I’ll go in and check, it’s been too long."

Once Feng Qi went inside, the wait was prolonged.

Little Taotie was almost nodding off, at last, Feng Qi emerged.

Feng Qi cursed: "It’s been occupied inside!"
