The young man didn’t move an inch when she appeared in front of him which surprised ‘Mu Bao Bao’.
When she was about to stab him, she paid attention to her surroundings, as if she was expecting something to happen.
This was normal since one wouldn’t just walk up to an enemy without anything prepared. It was normal to expect that the young man would have some kind of trump card prepared to deal with ‘Mu Bao Bao’ if she attacked him.
However, there wasn’t anything that appeared.
‘Mu Bao Bao’ was allowed to stab her sword right into the chest of the young man.
There was a splash of blood that came out that told her that this was a real person that she was stabbing, but she couldn’t understand why he would allow her to do this.
There were plenty of spirit beasts around and he was clearly the one that was controlling them, so why would he not have them guard him?
Why would he walk up to her like this?
Before ‘Mu Bao Bao’ could wonder any further about this, she looked down to see the young man’s mouth moving.
There was no sound that came out, but she could see what his lips were saying.
“Thank you.”
‘Mu Bao Bao’ was even more confused when she saw this, but that was the last thing that she was able to see.
Before she could react, there were binding ropes that came out from the young man’s body that immediately wrapped around her.
She wanted to escape, but she found that she wasn’t able to pull her sword out of the young man’s chest. It was as if there was something that was locking her sword in place in his chest.
She wanted to let go as well and use her green leaves to block these ropes, but the green leaves instantly disappeared the moment that they made contact with the ropes.
It was as if there was something inside of the ropes that were scattering the spiritual energy that she used to create these green leaves.
So she couldn’t do a thing as they wrapped up around her.
The moment that the ropes came around her, she felt her connection to her cultivation being snapped. It was as if these ropes had completely sealed her cultivation, cutting the control that she had over her spiritual energy.
Wrapped up in these ropes, ‘Mu Bao Bao’ fell to the ground helplessly.
She found that she wasn’t even able to move an inch as these ropes bound her.
Then before she could do anything, the sand under her began to shift.
It was as if there was something large that was coming out of the desert.
There were two large things that came out in front and behind of her and when she could see what they were, she was shocked to find…that they were a pair of jaws. It was the jaws of some kind of large animal that had hidden itself in the desert that had suddenly snapped out to swallow her.
She couldn’t do a thing as she was thrown into darkness…
Then she felt her consciousness fading as well.
It seemed that there was some kind of gas inside of this large mouth that had put her to sleep.
As her consciousness faded, she couldn’t help wondering just where she had gone wrong.
After the large mouth swallowed ‘Mu Bao Bao’, it immediately sank back into the desert.
For the two that were watching from the side, they couldn’t help being shocked. They had no idea what had just happened even though they had seen it all happen.
If it wasn’t for the fact that they had seen it happen, they might have even thought that none of it had truly been there.
After all, the large mouth had swallowed everything that had been there.
It had swallowed the young man, ‘Mu Bao Bao’, and the pieces of the corpses on the ground.
But there was something that was still here.
The spirit beasts that had ganged up on ‘Mu Bao Bao’ were still here.
The two of them didn’t know what these spirit beasts were going to do, but they didn’t want to stay here to find out…or at least that would have been the case if they could move.
Right now, their wounds had been stabilized, but they were just too weak to move at all.
So the only thing that they could hope for was that these spirit beasts would leave them alone.
It was just too bad that these spirit beasts didn’t have this intention at all.
After a moment, the spirit beasts suddenly turned to look at the two of them.
With the way that these spirit beasts looked at them, they couldn’t help feeling a chill run down their spines.
They wanted to say something, but before they could even open their mouths, the spirit beasts had already appeared in front of them.
Then the two that had attacked ‘Mu Bao Bao’ initially raised their hands and then cut them down with their claws.
With the difference in cultivation levels, the two of them couldn’t resist this claw slash at all.
So just like this, their lives were ended.
Once the spirit beasts had taken care of these two, they looked at each other before disappearing on the spot.
The sands suddenly parted and swallowed the corpses of all the mercenaries that had been left in this place.
Soon, there wasn’t a trace of what had happened here left.
…
When ‘Mu Bao Bao’ woke up, she found that she was still tied up in the rope, but her hands and legs were also in iron manacles and chains. She was completely trapped and chained to the wall, so she couldn’t move far from where she currently was.
But she also didn’t want to move around at first since she wanted to see where she was.
When she looked around herself, she found that she was in a completely unfamiliar place.
The one thing that she did know was that this was a dungeon, but she didn’t know who had trapped her here and why they had done this.
Seeing that there wasn’t anything out of place around her, she knew that there was nothing that she could do here.
So she suddenly said, “If you’re there, stop hiding and show yourself already.”
But as she waited, no one appeared.
It was as if there wasn’t a single person guarding her…
And since no one appeared, there was nothing that she could do but wait for something to happen.
She had already tried to break free, but these ropes and the manacles completely sealed her power off. Right now, she was as weak as one of the mortals that she had dominated before.
After what seemed like a long time, there was finally some noise that came from outside the bars.
It had gotten dark, so with this noise, there was also some light that had appeared.
It seemed like someone was finally coming to see her.
Seeing this, ‘Mu Bao Bao’ suddenly shouted, “So you’ve finally decided to show yourself!”
But even though she said this, there was no response.
All she heard was the sound of footsteps coming down a flight of stairs before approaching her cell.
When the footsteps came closer, she looked out to see who was coming.
When she saw who it was that approached her cell, she couldn’t help being caught off guard.
That was because it was a spirit beast.
This was a spirit beast bear that was walking on two legs while carrying a tray in their front paws.
When the spirit beast bear came up to her cell, the door opened automatically for this bear and it walked up in front of her.
When ‘Mu Bao Bao’ saw this, she couldn’t help feeling a bit afraid.
After all, she could feel the aura that was coming from the bear.
She knew that this bear was in the Qi Condensation Realm just like her, but right now, her powers were completely sealed.
If this bear wanted, it could easily tear her to pieces.
But the bear just casually put down the tray that it had in its hands in front of her before turning to leave.
‘Mu Bao Bao’ could see that this tray had some food on it, but what she cared more about right now was the bear.
If the bear left, then she wouldn’t have anyone to talk to.
She still had the hope of leaving this place, so she needed some form of information.
Even if it was a bear, she was hoping that it could give her some information.
‘Mu Bao Bao’ suddenly asked, “Where is this place?”
The bear turned around when it heard her speak, but it didn’t say anything in response.
‘Mu Bao Bao’ waited for some kind of response from the bear, but then she realized…this was a bear. It wasn’t as if it was going to respond in words in the first place.
So she watched carefully for some kind of gesture from the bear.
In the end, the bear just remained there silently watching her for a few minutes before suddenly raising its head.
‘Mu Bao Bao’ didn’t understand what this bear was doing at first, but then she realized…it was laughing at her!
Her face immediately turned red when she saw this and she wanted to snap at the bear, but she was also afraid that it would snap if she spoke too harshly. Right now, she couldn’t afford to make this bear angry…
After laughing at her for a bit, the bear wiped a tear from its eyes before turning to leave the cell.
‘Mu Bao Bao’ was once again left in the darkness.
