When it was brought out again, the Master was already holding several large lotus leaves.
Each one was twice the size of a washbasin. Where he got them, no one knew...
He first handed one to the Second Elder, then turned to offer them to Ye Fan and Zi Yu.
Whether it was a psychological effect or not.
Ye Fan always felt a strange smell in the air.
He quietly took half a step back, looking at Master Xie Yan with a bewildered expression.
"This is camouflage," Master Xie Yan said, placing a lotus leaf on top of his head. "This way, they won't see us."
"Yes, it works very well." The Second Elder held the lotus leaf above his head with both hands, then urged, "Quick, put yours on, or it'll be trouble if they see us."
Ye Fan's lips twitched.
Are you doing this because you're afraid people won't discover you quickly enough?
In fact, there was no need to wait.
The moment they appeared, someone from that group of people had already glanced in their direction.
Perhaps they were too busy fighting the demonic beasts to pay attention, or for some other reason.
After a glance, that person had stopped looking.
But it was obvious.
If Ye Fan and the others made any move that seemed unfriendly, those people would definitely retaliate immediately!
Of course.
Ye Fan had no intention of bothering with them.
After all, there was an even more troublesome problem waiting for him to solve.
"Thank you, Master." Ye Fan quickly refused, "But we don't need it..."
"No, you do!" Master Xie Yan's expression suddenly turned serious. "Otherwise, we'll be in great danger!"
Refusing the kindness of a powerful expert was itself an unwise decision.
And refusing the kindness of a psychic expert was even more unthinkable!
Although on the surface, Ye Fan and Master Xie Yan seemed to have a decent relationship.
This was still a psychic expert!
No one knew what he would do next...
In any case, Ye Fan wasn't sure if rejecting him would lead to some unpleasant consequences.
For example, this old man suddenly looking at him warily and saying, "You're sick."
If those three words came from his mouth, it would definitely not be an insult.
But a consequence far more terrifying than being cursed!
Zi Yu, though not as clear-headed as Ye Fan, also vaguely sensed that the atmosphere was a little off.
"Senior, my master means, we already have some!"
As she spoke, two leaf-like appendages, the size of fans, grew from Zi Yu's clothes.
Zi Yu quickly plucked them off, giving one to Ye Fan.
Ye Fan took it and immediately placed it on his head, his actions incredibly decisive!
"So that's how it is."
Master Xie Yan nodded in understanding, then turned and squatted down.
He squatted next to the Second Elder.
As they squatted there, the large lotus leaves on their heads drooped down, forming a circle around their heads.
Coupled with the classic pose of peeking from behind a corner.
At first glance, they looked like two green toadstools...
"So many beautiful fireworks."
After squatting down, Master Xie Yan couldn't help but exclaim.
"Master, aren't those calligraphy from the cultivators?" The Second Elder looked at him in confusion. "If you say that, people will misunderstand and think we're fools."
"I know," Master Xie Yan replied casually. "But they look no different from beautiful fireworks, don't they?"
"That makes sense!" The Second Elder nodded heavily. "As expected, it's Master who sees things more clearly. I still have much to learn from you!"
"Second Elder, you are too kind." Master Xie Yan said humbly, "I also have much to learn from you, such as in the research of various species."
"Actually, it doesn't matter who learns from whom," the Master added. "We should learn from each other's strengths and make common progress!"
"That makes sense!" The Second Elder nodded again. "Let us make common progress!"
Then they looked at each other.
And revealed happy smiles.
Listening to their conversation, Ye Fan's lips twitched again...
Good.
These two are completely hopeless...
Actually, Ye Fan was also a little curious.
Although the strength of these two old men was a mystery, they always seemed very timid.
Before, whenever a fight broke out, they would either huddle together trembling or bury their heads in the ground like ostriches.
Why weren't they afraid now?
But then, Ye Fan thought his idea was too foolish!
How could the thoughts of psychic experts be fathomed by a mere mortal like himself?
Perhaps they really just saw it as watching a fireworks show?
In any case, what they thought was their business. He shouldn't ponder it recklessly.
If his brain waves accidentally synchronized with theirs, that would be truly dangerous...
"Huh?" Zi Yu suddenly murmured, "That's strange."
"Found something else?" Ye Fan quickly asked.
"If I remember correctly, that should be a Hu Mang beast at the fourth level of Nascent Soul stage."
Zi Yu explained.
"But the highest cultivation among those cultivators is the fifth level of Nascent Soul stage, they shouldn't lose, right?"
Ye Fan listened and looked at Zi Yu with a strange expression. "You haven't been out of your sect before, how do you know what kind of demonic beast that is?"
Previously, True Person Zi Yun had mentioned that Zi Yu mostly stayed around Purple Cloud Sect after her transformation.
And in the areas around Purple Cloud Sect, it was clearly impossible for demonic beasts of this level to exist.
"Oh, that's weird?"
Zi Yu was also confused.
"I've never seen this demonic beast before, why do I know it so clearly?"
Ye Fan secretly nodded.
Previously, even the system couldn't identify Zi Yu's true form, which showed that her true form must be extraordinary.
This incident seemed to further confirm this possibility.
Come to think of it, everyone around him seemed quite mysterious.
The two old men were out of the question, their strength was always a mystery.
Er Ha's invincibility and the little fox's life-locking ability.
Each one was more shameless and invincible than the last.
Most importantly, these were all contracted by the system for him.
But even it couldn't identify all the information about Er Ha and Zi Yu.
Now, it seemed that the appearance of these things was not as simple as the system accidentally helping him contract pets.
However, it was too early to think about these things. He should first figure out the current situation.
For example...
Where did these cultivators come from?
And judging by Zi Yu's words, the strength of this Hu Mang beast had also undergone unknown mutations.
If that was the case...
Thinking of this, Ye Fan attempted to launch a psychic attack at the distant Hu Mang.
The next moment, Ye Fan shook his head in disappointment.
As expected, it had no effect at all...
From the White Death God to the Dragon Scale Giant Rhinoceros, and now the Hu Mang.
These guys seemed to have all become immune to psychic attacks.
If nothing unexpected happened, then the things that would appear next would probably all be like this...
