Chapter 21 Escape
Jiang Yuan saw him open his eyes and his face turned pale. Thinking of what happened just now, she asked, "What was the white light you sent to the other road? Is it because of it that you suddenly became so weak?"

Rabbit Hero chewed the grass into pieces and swallowed it, then continued to meditate with his eyes closed. Even after hearing what Jiang Yuan said, he did not open his eyes. He only replied, "That is the demon consciousness, which is equivalent to the demon's soul. It has its own demon power. It is perfect to use it to lure away the pursuing demon. But after all, it is the demon consciousness that has left the body. The farther I am from it, the more obvious the pain from the depths of my soul will be."

Having said that, he paused for a long time, frowned, and clenched his teeth, as if he had encountered some difficulties.

After a few breaths, his frown finally relaxed. After taking a deep breath, he continued, "I left a sensing spell under the buried firewood. This spell will automatically disappear after sensing the evil spirit of the Xia Yi Yi Xing monster."

Jiang Yuan carefully memorized all the coping methods used by Rabbit Hero in his mind. After all, this was a matter of life and death, so every bit of experience was invaluable!

But after summarizing what Rabbit Man said, she still had one last question: "But... since you have already separated a trace of demon consciousness to go another way, how can you be sure that Xia Yizi will definitely chase us this way?"

"I have met Xia Yitiao twice. Although it was not many times, it was enough to see through him. He is suspicious by nature and will definitely not miss any possibility!"

So, he will choose both paths!
"Since you know that he will choose both paths, then aren't your previous arrangements in vain?"

Jiang Yuan scratched his head and thought for a long time, but couldn't figure it out. He could only look at Rabbit Man to listen to his answer.

While talking, Rabbit Hero had already absorbed all the medicinal power of the healing grass. When he opened his eyes again, his face was still as pale as before, but his expression was much more relaxed.

But he did not answer Jiang Yuan's question immediately. Instead, he stood up, walked behind the big cat's neck, and leaned out most of his body, carefully observing the scene in front of him.

After a while, he sat back and said, "Actually, I just want to try my luck."

"bet?"

"If Xia Yitiao or his men catch up with the demon consciousness first, they will definitely inform the other demons. Then, the crisis will be resolved and we won't have to confront him head-on. This is a good thing."

He paused for a moment, turned his head and saw Jiang Yuan listening carefully. He couldn't help but smile with relief and continued, "If we are caught up first, the monsters chasing the monster consciousness will not be able to come to support us for a while, and the enemy will lose half of the threat. You just wait and see who will win."

After hearing his words, Jiang Yuan's doubts were suddenly resolved, and there was a hint of admiration in his eyes when he looked at Rabbit Hero.

"So where are we going now?"

Jiang Yuan looked ahead. The mountain road was rugged and there were dense jungles on both sides of the road. Although it was dark, there were occasional flashes of fireflies, bringing with it the unique beauty and mystery of the night.

The Rabbit Warrior crossed his paws across his chest and said, "If we keep going along this road, we will reach Moon Bay at dawn. Moon Bay is guarded by the elders of our Rabbit Clan, so it will be safe to go there. What's more..."

Although he didn't finish his words, Jiang Yuan had already guessed the second half of his sentence, and her eyes lit up.

But at this moment, Jiang Yuan suddenly noticed that Big Cat's breathing had become much heavier. She touched its neck with some concern and asked, "Big Cat, are you tired?"

Big Cat said as he ran: "I'm not tired, I've only been running for an hour. It's a pity that I'm not proficient in using my magic power, otherwise I would have reached the Moon Bay that Hero Rabbit mentioned long ago."

Upon hearing this, Rabbit Man frowned and asked in confusion, "Not skilled?" Jiang Yuan knew he was asking about Big Cat, but he still nodded and answered for it, "Big Cat has only been learning to use his magic power for a month."

Rabbit Hero couldn't help but gasp and said, "Are those monsters in the Monster Village crazy? They let you, a little girl who just came to this world, and a cat who has only practiced for a month, face so many dangers alone?"

"The village chief said that we need more experience to grow." She paused here, as if she suddenly remembered something, and added: "By the way, this time I got into trouble because I wanted to save you!"

Rabbit Man pondered for a moment and said to Big Cat, "If there is a road leading to the mountain ahead, let's take that road!"

"why?"

Like Jiang Yuan, Big Cat also asked directly when it had doubts. It moved its ears and listened carefully to the voice on its back, but did not dare to stop moving its feet.

Although Big Cat had some doubts in his heart, when he saw a small path leading up the mountain, he did not hesitate and ran straight up.

Seeing this, Rabbit Man explained, "Because you are exhausted. If you continue like this, not only will you be in trouble, but the shrimps will also catch up with you."

After saying this, he closed his eyes and tried to establish a connection with his demonic consciousness.

Previously, he had driven his demon consciousness to run on that road at a moderate speed. Now that several black-cloaked demons were catching up with him, he let his demon consciousness fly forward at the fastest speed.

The appearance of those black-cloaked monsters could not be seen clearly, but the skull staffs in their hands emitted a faint blue light. Even if one only looked at them from a distance, one could feel a slight chill.

They hid under the black cloak, as if they had some shameful identity.

They just circulated their demonic power, and after a few jumps and flips, they surrounded him in mid-air.

Seeing that he had no chance to escape, a cloaked demon couldn't help but say smugly, "I thought you were so powerful! Turns out you're already at the end of your rope. It seems like after you injured our second captain, you didn't end up in a good situation!"

With the help of the power of demon consciousness, Rabbit Hero finally asked the question he had been wanting to ask since the Rabbit Village was wiped out: "Why did you want to massacre the Rabbit Village? The villagers are friendly and hospitable. If you really want to protect the treasure of the clan, wouldn't it be better to leave a few more alive? Why do you have to force them to death?"

Hearing what Rabbit Man said, several cloaked monsters were stunned at first, and then they couldn't help but burst into laughter.

When the laughter had almost died down, one of the extremely sturdy cloaked monsters wiped away the tears from his laughter and said, "Friendly and harmonious? Warm and hospitable? Aren't these few words telling the other monster tribes that this Rabbit Village is particularly easy to bully?"

Another cloaked demon also echoed, "That's right, it's all because those villagers are so soft and easy to bully, and have no ability to fight back. Otherwise, why didn't we attack other villages, but chose your village?"

Hearing this, the aura around the Rabbit Hero's demon consciousness became even colder, and the main body meditating in the distance couldn't help but clench his fists. He looked at the six cloaked demons and said in a cold tone: "You few can't trap me..."

After that, he seemed to suddenly think of something, and asked with disdain: "Since you are all here, where is the shrimp? You haven't shown up for so long, are you afraid of me?"
