There was nobody behind her… Just a few vines which were swaying due to the breeze . The vines were so thin that even birds could not stand on it, hence, it could not support the weight of a person .
She wet her lips and pulled out a sword from her waist . She lifted it in the air and swung it around but suddenly swung to the back!
The sword shone brightly in the dark and easily swept through the wind . If there were anything behind her, her stroke would have been able to reveal its presence .
But when her sword swung, it touched nothing but air .
Could it have been a ghost?
Gu Xijiu squinted her eyes and flicked her finger . A light blue talisman appeared at her finger tips, rotated in midair, then flew around her entire body before returning back into her palm .
She sniffed her palm and smelled nothing .
It was a spirit exorcising talisman! During the modern age, she knew a few supernatural power users and she was on good terms with one of the exorcists and the exorcist taught her a few tricks to capture spirits . Though she might have only learned a few simple tricks, it was sufficient to deal with weak spirits .
Once the talisman was taken out, any invisible spirits would reveal itself, however, it did not reveal anything . Seems like she might have been overthinking .
"Probably the wind?" She thought to herself .
She turned around and disappeared…
Not long after her shadow vanished, another figure appeared from the same tree .
An outfit with a misty water-like appearance could be seen . The figure's hair swayed with the wind and had a beautiful headband with a blood red ruby in the middle of it . Its shape looked like the eye of a fox and it shone brightly under the moonlight .
The man's face was covered with a fox-shaped mask but behind the mask were a pair of beautiful eyes that were full of mystery . It almost seemed cold and warm at the same time .
He sat down and his posture was even more relaxed than Gu Xijiu's . Beneath him was just a thin tree branch which could easily be snapped by a child . Yet, he was able to sit on the branch firmly without even the slightest hint of quivering .
Looking closely, the branch that he sat on was the same tree branch that Gu Xijiu was standing on earlier . If she was still there it would seem as if she was sitting within his arms…
The man crossed his legs and lazily rested his chin on his palm . His long hair reflected a glimmer of light, despite being in a pitch-black surrounding . It was as if he was the source of the light!
He looked at the direction in which Gu Xijiu vanished and his pale lips let out small smirks .
The little idiot never noticed that he had always been behind her . However, this little idiot was very sharp . Even though he merely exhaled behind her while standing a little nearer, she immediately drew her sword to defend herself!
Despite not possessing any spiritual power, her movements were faster than lightning! A little faster and she would have hit the edge of his clothes…
The talisman she had used was impressive as well . This man was knowledgeable, yet he had never seen the drawings on the talisman anywhere else . Besides that, her teleportation technique seemed extremely strange…
"This kid… It is as if she was a different person!" He thought deeply before suddenly bursting into laughter . He stood up, blended into the mist, and vanished into thin air .
