Fairy Wu You was giving out orders to everyone.
They all listened obediently, without the slightest intention of refusing. Within minutes, they left one by one to fulfill their assignments.
At last, only Su Luo and Li Man Man remained.
Fairy Wu You didn’t even bother to look at Su Luo, she smoothly turned around and walked away with self-importance. Of course, the men by her side were all surrounding her, helping her clear the way so that she didn’t have to lift a finger.
After seeing everyone else leave, Li Man Man was stunned. She just stood there looking at Su Luo: “What about us?”
They had been left behind just like that?
Su Luo smiled slightly. Was Fairy Wu You trying to isolate them by ignoring them? Even though it was a very childish method, it was extremely effective. Since there were many fire element beasts in the area, if they were surrounded, Li Man Man and Su Luo would be in danger.
Hence, Su Luo reminded Li Man Man: “Be careful, if we are surrounded, then we will be in great danger.”
Li Man Man nodded solemnly. Then, unaware of her own movement, she stepped closer toward Su Luo, because she had a sense of security when she was near Su Luo.
Su Luo and Li Man Man dealt with the flame beasts while continuing to follow the others.
By then, Fairy Wu You had schemed against them a few times, but fortunately, she had no intention of killing Su Luo yet. If Su Luo died right now, then the one-year contract would automatically be canceled, and she wouldn’t be able to get Senior Brother Luo.
However, Su Luo wasn’t bothered by Fairy Wu You’s small tricks.
Since she had the Exotic Fire of the Fallen Red Lotus in her possession, after entering the Demon clan’s Fire Territory, she was as comfortable as a fish entering water, just as she was in her own home.
These ordinary flames had an instinctive reverence for the Fallen Red Lotus, so as long as Su Luo made a move, no matter how powerful the beasts were, they would automatically stay away. Hence, Fairy Wu You’s attempts at harming Su Luo failed.
However, as they went deeper and deeper into the Demon Clan’s Fire Territory, Su Luo’s bad premonitions grew heavier. She felt as if someone were watching from the darkness every single move she made.
Especially when she used the Fallen Red Lotus, that pair of eyes would become extremely intense, fierce and excited.
Su Luo’s eyebrows furrowed.
“What are you worrying about?” Li Manman looked at Su Luo with confusion.
Along this whole process, Li Man Man’s respect for Su Luo was like the endless water of the Yellow River. Every time they stepped into a trap, Su Luo would resolve all of the troubles unhurriedly. Su Luo’s calmness made her almost believe that this was just a visit to a friend’s house.
“Do you feel something off about the current situation?” Su Luo asked in a low voice.
“No, not really.”
“For example, feeling like someone is watching you?” Su Luo asked carefully.
“No, not really.” Li Manman was confused.
“Alright.” Su Luo knew that, even if Li Man Man could feel it, with her personality, she would probably think she had mistakenly sensed it.
Li Man Man saw Su Luo’s cold expression, and couldn’t help probing: “Really? Could it be Fairy Wu You?”
After all of their interactions within this period of time, Li Man Man naturally stood on Su Luo’s side. Her impression toward Fairy Wu You had greatly reduced, and it was even developing into a deep hate!
Su Luo gently shook her head. Fairy Wu You was indeed stronger than her, but she wasn’t outrageously strong to this point, so it was probably not her... But within this Demon clan’s Fire Territory, the strongest person was Fairy Wu You, who else was there besides her?**
