Chapter 127 The Wolf Demon and Cat Demon are Captured
The large-scale disturbance caused by the wildcats and gray wolves fleeing startled the birds on the mountain, sending them flying in all directions.
Xiao Han had been keeping an eye on the wildcats and wolves' movements. Because he was constantly watching Long Chuqing beside him, he also noticed that the wildcats and gray wolves had all looked at Long Chuqing just now.
Immediately afterwards, their eyes showed fear, and they retreated as if frightened, fleeing up the mountain.
He pondered to himself, could their sudden abnormal behavior be related to Chu Qing? But Chu Qing hadn't done anything!
To conceal the unusual situation, Long Chuqing walked towards Xiao Han first after seeing the wildcat and gray wolf running up the mountain.
She just hoped that Xiao Han and Qing Ying hadn't noticed the wildcat and the gray wolf's gaze.
"Xiao Han... are you alright?" She walked to Xiao Han's side and asked with concern. "Were you hurt?"
"I'm fine." Xiao Han pulled himself out of his reverie, then tentatively asked, "Chu Qing... do you know why these wild cats and gray wolves suddenly retreated?"
"I don't know! I'm wondering about it too!" Long Chuqing said seriously, "Perhaps the wolf demon and cat demon saw that too many of them had died and couldn't bear to let the remaining companions continue to die, so they summoned them back!"
Xiao Han looked into Long Chuqing's eyes and said, "Is that really true?"
"How could I possibly know the truth?" Long Chuqing smiled faintly, avoiding his gaze, and said with a hint of guilt, "Isn't this just a guess?"
"Um... I was just asking casually," Xiao Han didn't press further, "It's good that everyone is alright."
Qing Tong and the others also came to Xiao Han's side. After confirming that he was not injured, they were relieved.
The battle between Su Jue and the gray wolf demon was at its most intense when suddenly several wolves and wild cats pounced on them.
The wildcat and the gray wolf stood by, watching him intently, ready to strike at any moment and launch a sneak attack when he was off guard.
Su Jue had to deal with the attacks from the gray wolf demon while also dodging sneak attacks from wolves and wildcats.
Just then, the gray wolf and wildcat, who had been poised to attack, suddenly stopped their advance.
Just as Su Jue was wondering, he noticed the situation on Long Chuqing's side. The wildcats and gray wolves that had been attacking them frantically also stopped and stood there motionless.
The gray wolf demon also noticed the anomaly, but he didn't know why they had suddenly stopped attacking.
Normally, without his command, they would not stop attacking on the spot, and there was no shout to stop.
Looking into the eyes of both the wolf and the cat, one could see a sense of fear. What was going on? The gray wolf demon frowned, a bad feeling creeping into his heart.
The cat demon on the hillside also noticed the wild cats' strange behavior. Logically, they shouldn't have stopped attacking without her command. What was going on?
Just as they were wondering what was going on, the pack of wolves and wildcats suddenly retreated and then fled up the mountain in a panic.
When the pack of wild cats passed by the cat demon, the cat demon tried to call them back, but they ignored her and just kept running into the mountains.
The gray wolf demon was stunned. Taking advantage of the wolf demon's momentary daze, Su Jue pushed out his magic sword and stabbed at the wolf demon.
By the time the wolf demon came to his senses, the magic sword was already in front of him. He had already been injured by Su Jue during the previous fight, and this time he could not dodge. The magic sword passed straight through his body.
Su Jue threw the talisman in his hand again. The talisman flew towards the wolf demon and trapped him. The wolf demon, who was injured again, was powerless to break free from the talisman array in front of him.
The gray wolf demon glared at Su Jue with resentment and said unwillingly, "Let me go! I have never harmed anyone. What right do you have to arrest me?"
"Don't look at me like that. I don't know if you've ever harmed anyone, but I do know that you condoned the cat demon's killings. If you had just focused on your cultivation, I wouldn't have bothered you."
Su Jue took out a magic rope and tied up the gray wolf demon. "As for how to deal with you, the elders of the sect will decide when we return. If you behave well, you may be spared from suffering. If you do not commit any serious offenses, you may regain your freedom one day."
"I won't believe a single word you celestial masters say."
Su Jue curled his lip, a hint of disdain on his face: "Believe it or not, it's up to you."
When the cat demon saw the gray wolf demon being captured, she panicked and knew she couldn't stay there any longer.
If she lingered any longer and the Celestial Master discovered her hiding there, she feared she would be captured. She immediately stood up and tried to escape before being exposed.
Fei Feng, who had been keeping a close eye on the cat demon's movements, realized her intention and immediately notified Long Chuqing. "Chuqing, the cat demon is preparing to escape."
Upon learning this, Long Chuqing quickly took the whip from Xiao Han's hand and ran out, then leaped towards the nearby hillside at an extremely fast speed.
"Chu Qing..." Xiao Han called out anxiously from behind.
He didn't know what had happened, but seeing Chu Qing's anxious look, he figured she must have discovered something, which was why she rushed out so hastily.
He was worried that she might be in danger if she went alone, so he rushed out with her without hesitation and they ran together up the mountain.
At the same time, Qingying and the others exchanged glances, and without a word, they raised their swords and followed closely behind Xiao Han, running up the mountain.
Just as the cat demon was about to transform into demonic energy and fly away, Long Chuqing quickly pulled out the phoenix hairpin from her head and threw it at the cat demon in front of her.
With a "whoosh," the phoenix hairpin flew like an arrow, slicing through the leaves and heading straight for the cat demon. The cat demon was caught off guard and was pierced in the leg by the hairpin.
"Ah..." A sharp pain shot through the cat demon, who screamed in agony before collapsing heavily to the ground.
Because she was stabbed in the leg by the phoenix hairpin, she was no longer able to transform into demonic energy to escape.
She felt a burning pain in her leg, and she frowned as she propped herself up to check the injury.
The cat demon was very puzzled. It was just a hairpin, so why was it hurting so much?
She reached out to try to pull the hairpin off her leg, but as soon as her palm touched it, the burning sensation returned, and she immediately pulled her hand back.
By this time, two bright red burns had appeared on her palms. She had no choice but to give up the idea of removing the hairpin, force herself to stand up, and stagger up the mountain, dragging her injured leg.
When Long Chuqing arrived, he raised his whip and lashed it at the cat demon.
"Ah..." The cat demon cried out in pain again, losing its balance and collapsing to the ground once more.
The feathered blades on the whip pierced deep into the cat demon's arms and body, binding her tightly.
The cat demon screamed in pain as she tried to struggle. But the more she struggled, the deeper the feather blade pierced her. She quickly realized that she dared not move again.
Long Chuqing slowly walked towards the cat demon, her footsteps rustling as she stepped on the fallen leaves. She bent down and glanced at the cat demon.
