"I really didn't expect you to be so powerful, I thought you only had the strength of the Yun Qi Realm. Han Xiaoyi glanced at Lu Ling with a little deep meaning, she could feel that the fluctuation of the heterochromatic fire element that Lu Ling had just used was not weaker than the ordinary middle of the Initial Realm, it seemed that he was hiding his strength.

Lu Ling smiled bitterly and didn't answer, he didn't want his demonic aura to be exposed, so he tried not to let the girl doubt it anymore.

"But I'll still protect you!" Han Xiaoyi smiled slyly and said with big eyes.

"Come on, if it weren't for me just now, you might have been cold directly. Lu Ling smiled helplessly and said, and the girl laughed embarrassedly: "Just now because I didn't react, it's very scary if I get serious." ”

"Really?" Lu Ling nodded noncommittally, he couldn't imagine the look in the girl's mouth.

However, Han Xiaoyi didn't care about Lu Ling's suspicions, because her attention was quickly attracted to other places.

"Shhhh Lu Ling also followed her example, lowered his footsteps and approached the past, and when he looked up, he saw a bird beast larger than a human standing firmly on the branch, combing the brown feathers on his body with a sharp and slender beak.

The big bird seemed to notice the gaze of the two, but it did not run away immediately, but let out a vigilant low chirp, and ignored them and continued to arrange its feathers, as if it did not think that Lu Ling and the others would threaten it at all.

"This is ......?" Lu Ling was a little surprised after seeing the appearance of the big bird, because he had seen this kind of big bird before, Jiuye's mount was a giant bird with brown feathers, and the size of the big bird was several times larger than the one in front of him.

Han Xiaoyi's eyes lit up with joy and said: "This is a rock carving, it is estimated that it is only a young age, and the adult rock carving is much bigger than this." After saying that, she stood up and shouted at the rock carving in the tree, "Mr. Rock Carving, can you come down and let me touch you?"

However, the rock carving ignored the girl's request, and at last it could not stand the girl's tireless words, and glared at her coldly, and flew away with a huge wing, and the frenzy that blew the girl's petite body away.

Han Xiaoyi puffed out her mouth, her soft hair was blown messy, and there were a few feathers stained, and her snow-white dress became wrinkled. However, she didn't become depressed because of this deflated, but quickly pointed to the other side and shouted, "Lu Ling, look there!"

Lu Ling, who was amused by the girl's funny appearance, immediately cast his gaze over, and on a meadow behind several giant trees, there were several snow-white horses buried in their heads and gnawing on the tender grass, their manes and tails were shiny gray and silver, and on the top of their heads, there was a spiral silver horn as long as a palm, on which a dense peculiar texture could be vaguely seen.

The appearance of these white horses looks quite similar to the previous white-feathered holy horse, but the biggest difference from the latter is that they do not have the snow-like wings.

"That's a unicorn, a special mount for the Faerie royal family. Han Xiaoyi said that she ran towards those unicorns with joy, and Lu Ling was afraid that she would provoke those strange beasts to be attacked again, so she hurriedly chased after them.

However, the unicorns did not make any panicked moves when they saw the girl running towards them.

Han Xiaoyi approached one of the smaller unicorns with light steps, the affection in her big eyes almost turned into substance, she gently stretched out her little hand and stroked the unicorn's mane, the latter let out a soft hiss, not only did not resist, but also took the initiative to rub the girl's palm with her head.

Lu Ling was relieved when he saw this scene, he cautiously approached the past, and looked at the unicorn that seemed to be enjoying himself under the girl's petting in surprise, and he asked in a low voice, "What's going on?"

"Unicorns are tame, and as long as they don't do anything drastic to them, they won't take the initiative to attack. Han Xiaoyi said.

"So, they're really good for mounts. Lu Ling sighed, "I heard that the mounts of the White Dragon Holy Horseman are all selected here, and maybe they will also choose unicorns." ”

Han Xiaoyi shook his head: "As far as I know, the mount of the White Dragon Paladin must have both the ability to fly and fight, but the unicorn can neither fly nor have particularly strong combat power, so it is generally only used as a mount for the children of the nobility." ”

After saying that, she also laughed "grin": "I also want to raise a unicorn, but unfortunately my father doesn't allow it." ”

"Why?"

"Because I have too many pets, I can't put them at home. ”

“......”

Lu Ling was speechless, if he knew that the "home" in the girl's mouth meant the backyard of the entire Blood Demon Palace, he really didn't know how he would feel.

"I've seen the White Dragon Paladins many times, and most of their mounts are white-feathered Pegasi, and they look so handsome. The girl's eyes lit up and she said.

"Is there any difference between the White Feather Heavenly Horse and the previous White Feather Holy Horse?" Lu Ling asked.

"Absolutely. Han Xiaoyi said, "The White Feather Holy Horse is actually the White Feather Pegasus with the blood of the king, their potential and talent are not comparable to ordinary Pegasus, and they even have a very high status among other beasts. ”

Lu Ling suddenly brightened, no wonder the Escaped Mountain Bear just now would call the White Feather Holy Horse "Adult".

"You really know a lot about strange beasts. He sighed from the bottom of his heart, Han Xiaoyi could not only recognize every strange beast he saw, but also understand their habits, which was not something ordinary people could do.

Lu Ling's praise made the girl laugh proudly: "Hmph, I've read a lot of books about strange beasts since I was a child!"

Then she gently touched the unicorn's head, and then said, "Let's go, there must be many strange beasts here that I haven't seen before." ”

Lu Ling nodded, and after Han Xiaoyi said goodbye to the unicorns like a friend, he couldn't wait to walk deeper into the forest.

Although he was still worried, seeing the girl so full of interest, Lu Ling followed with a smile on his face.

But they walked in the forest, except for some white-feathered Pegasi and unicorn groups, they didn't see any other types of strange beasts, and as for those super beasts whose strength might have touched the Spirit Disk Realm, they didn't even encounter a single one, which made Han Xiaoyi couldn't help but feel a little lost.

"Maybe it's because those beasts don't want to be exposed to us. Han Xiaoyi said so, of course, Lu Ling didn't really want to encounter that level of alien beasts.

Before they knew it, the two had crossed the forbidden forest and came to the edge of the fence at the other end.

"It seems that the Forbidden Forest is not very big, it's a pity, I thought I could see a lot of strange beasts unique to the Faerie Clan. Han Xiaoyi pouted and muttered.

Lu Ling tilted his head slightly: "If you live nearby, don't you often see it." ”

"Hehe, yes, yes. Han Xiaoyi said hesitantly.

Lu Ling didn't pay attention to the emptiness in Han Xiaoyi's words, he stared at the guardrail in the distance, there was a small hole at the foot of the fence that could be passed by, judging from the surrounding damage marks, it seemed that it had been deliberately chiseled, and even the guard lines scattered on the fence were a little disordered.

"This is ......" Han Xiaoyi also discovered this hole and looked at Lu Ling suspiciously.

Lu Ling squatted down, and through the hole, he could see the scene outside the fence, and it didn't seem to be inside the palace.

He quickly realized what was happening, stood up, and looked at the girl with a solemn face: "It may be that someone else has snuck in like us." ”

"Huh?" Han Xiaoyi was stunned for a moment, then she suddenly raised her head and whispered, "Did you hear anything?"

Lu Ling pricked up his ears and listened carefully, as if he faintly heard a low whistle, and that voice felt quite familiar when he listened carefully.

After all, Han Xiaoyi knew a lot about strange beasts, and she quickly heard what the voice was: "It's the cry of the white-feathered heavenly horse!"

As soon as the words fell, she pulled out her legs and ran in the direction where the voice came from, Lu Ling let out an "ah", but he was already surprised by the girl's behavior, so he ran along without hesitation.

A few minutes later, the two of them arrived at a clearing surrounded by trees, where they saw a white-feathered Pegasus lying on the ground and screaming, loops of rope wrapped around its body, blooming with silver-purple arcs of lightning that burned the white fur and wings of the Pegasus blackened.

Seeing this tragic scene in front of him, Han Xiaoyi's soft amber pupils showed an angry look for the first time.

"Who?!" came a shout from behind them, and they immediately turned around, and out of behind a stout tree came two men, one fat and one thin.

They were all dressed in plain linen clothes, and they looked like monkeys with sharp beaks, and they knew at a glance that they were not fairies.

The two of them first looked at Lu Ling vigilantly, but when they saw Han Xiaoyi standing behind him, their eyes couldn't help but bloom with surprise, and their scarlet tongues licked their lips.

It's the first time they've seen a girl with such a beautiful look!

"It's the mountain goblin clan......" The lewd gazes of those two people made Han Xiaoyi's face a little pale, and she hid behind Lu Ling and said softly.

"Hmph, big brother, our luck is really good!" The fat mountain goblin stared at Han Xiaoyi's delicate body like a torch, and the faintly visible perfect curve made him excited.

The Slender Mountain Fairy also stared at the girl, and said with a sneer: "I wanted to catch a few strange beasts to make a lot of money, but I didn't expect to encounter this kind of superb goods, it's really worth the trip!"

Lu Ling frowned and stretched out his hand to protect the girl behind him, and said coldly: "Capture the strange beasts, are you poachers, you dare to break into the forbidden forest of the Immortal Spirit Palace, your courage is really not small." ”

As he spoke, the demonic flame energy in his palm had begun to work quietly.

At the same time, his heart has begun to complain -

"Besides us, they actually let other people sneak in, what the hell are those guards eating?!"
