Chapter 1357: The Cunning Skeleton King
"Xinghua, and the four elders, don't you have to complete the mission anymore?" Yan Li looked at Xinghua and the four elders of the Fulu Sect.
"Yes, the mission still needs to be completed." Xinghua nodded repeatedly when he heard it.
"We also have to complete our mission." The fourth elder of the Talisman Sect did not speak, and Qin Tianqing replied.
"Since you all have to complete the mission, why do you keep following us?" Yan Li was helpless.
"It's safe to follow you."
"It's fun to follow you."
"Since we're all wandering around Muyou Mountain, why not follow us?"
The first answer came from Qin Tianqing, the second answer came from the fourth elder of the Talisman Sect, and the third answer came from Xinghua.
Yan Li: ...
Okay, you each have your reasons.
"Aren't you afraid of not completing the task?" Yan Li continued to ask.
"Don't be afraid." The three of them shook their heads together.
Yan Li: ...
Whatever!
You guys are not afraid of not completing the task, so why should I worry about it?
As the sky darkened, Yan Li suddenly felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere around her, so she silently swallowed a detoxification pill.
When she saw everyone around her falling asleep, Yan Li also closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.
After Yan Li pretended to be asleep, she found a group of skeletons walking out from the darkness.
It turned out to be a poisoned skeleton!
Yan Li silently took out an invisible protective talisman array to protect everyone around him.
These people have fallen into a deep sleep and would not feel anything even if they were dismembered and eaten.
What Yan Li didn't expect was that those skeletons simply ignored other people.
The Skeleton King walked directly to himself outside the protective talisman array, carried himself on his back and walked away.
Other skeletons followed closely behind!
"King, why did we only capture her?" asked a skeleton.
"Catch the leader first. She is the most important." said the Poisoned Skeleton King.
"Catch the leader first? So if she catches you, we will have no way to deal with it?" The skeleton could draw inferences from one instance.
Even the Poisoned Skeleton King was speechless!
How could I be captured by her? After all, she is in my hands now!
"King, am I right?" Seeing that his king ignored him, the poisoned skeleton continued to ask.
The poisoned Skeleton King didn't want to pay any attention to it.
"Congratulations, you got it right." Yan Li, who was originally carried on the shoulders of the poisoned Skeleton King, suddenly jumped up.
"King, she's alive, she's alive." The poisoned skeleton exclaimed upon seeing this.
"Nonsense, I am alive." Yan Li punched the bald head of the poisoned skeleton.
"Do you think my head is interesting too? I can take it off and lend it to you to play with." Who would have thought that the poisoned skeleton would directly take off its head and hand it to Yan Li.
Yan Li felt ashamed when looking at the poisoned skeleton in his hand!
Using a skull as a toy?
Or was it the skeleton that offered it to me? It felt both scary and funny.
So Yan Li calmly put the skull in her hand back onto the neck of the poisoned skeleton.
"You are not unconscious." The poisoned Skeleton King finally reacted and looked at Yan Li and exclaimed.
"I wasn't unconscious. I was just teasing you. Where are you taking me?" Yan Li looked at it and asked.
"I originally wanted to take you back to make a cake for my child to celebrate his birthday." The Poisoned Skeleton King muttered.
"No way. As skeletons, it should be your death anniversary, how can you have a birthday?" Yan Li's face was full of disbelief when he heard it.
"Girl, we regard the day we turn into skeletons as our birthday." The poisoned skeleton on the side explained.
"So that's how it is. You guys are quite particular. But, there were so many people here, why did you pick me?" Yan Li looked at the Poisoned Skeleton King and asked.
"You are the most poisonous among those people." The Poisoned Skeleton explained.
"You are the vicious one, your whole family is vicious." Yan Li lost his composure after hearing that.
I am such a simple and kind person, but he actually said that I am vicious!
It's really unbearable!
"You have a strong smell of poison." The Poisoned Skeleton King continued.
He was a little confused as to why she was so angry when he said Yan Li was the most vicious!
After all, in the world of poisoned skeletons, the more poisonous the skeleton, the higher its status!
To say she is poisonous is an honor!
"Now I can't be your cake, go find someone else." Yan Li said unhappily.
"No, I'll never find someone as poisonous as you." The Poisoned Skeleton King shook his head repeatedly.
Yan Li: ...
I didn’t want to tame them at first, I just wanted them to celebrate the child’s birthday properly.
It seems that it doesn’t work now!
So Yan Li followed them back to the poisoned skeletons' nest, and sure enough, she saw a few little skeletons jumping around there.
Those little skeletons are probably the children of the poisoned Skeleton King.
That’s today’s birthday boy!
"Dad, is this the cake you caught for us? She's so poisonous." The little skeletons said excitedly after circling Yan Li.
Yan Li: ...
I didn’t expect these little skeletons to say they are poisonous!
Seeing all the poisoned skeletons surrounding him, Yan Li directly summoned out the Sword of the Undead.
Under the pressure of the upgraded Undead Sword's aura, the poisoned skeletons trembled.
"Submit or be destroyed?" Yan Li looked at them coldly with the Sword of the Undead in hand.
"Surrender, we surrender." The poisoned Skeleton King said immediately.
With the Sword of the Undead, they have no choice but to surrender!
After Yan Li made a mark on the poisoned Skeleton King's forehead, she collected all the poisoned skeletons into the Sword of the Undead.
"Another one has been tamed." Yan Li put away the Sword of the Undead and walked back happily.
When Yan Li returned to the place where everyone was resting, she saw a large group of people surrounding them and trying to find a way to break the protective talisman formation.
The people inside are still sleeping.
Yan Li turned invisible and silently returned to the protective talisman formation.
After hearing the conversation of those people outside, Yan Li realized that it was these people who had provoked a large group of skeletons.
They fled here and saw Yan Li's protective talisman array. At first, they asked for help from everyone in the talisman array.
But everyone in the talisman formation had already fallen into a deep sleep, so they naturally could not hear their cries for help.
These people thought that the people in the talisman formation did not help them, so they were furious and prepared to break through the protective talisman formation and rush in.
In this way, when those skeletons catch up with them, there will be a large group of people to help them resist.
Yan Li was speechless after hearing this!
These people are not good themselves and don't expect others to be good either. They are very vengeful.
Yan Li saw that it was still early, so she decided to take a nap. After all, there was no way those people could break through her protective talisman formation.
Listening to the people outside the talisman formation cursing, Yan Li was thoughtful enough to set up a soundproof barrier.
After doing all this, Yan Li went straight into her space tent to rest.
The next day.
Yan Li came out of the space tent and saw that everyone was still sleeping, so she threw a handful of medicine powder over and everyone woke up.
