"Little girl, come with me back to my hometown."
The weird beast smiled and invited Feng Banxia.
Feng Banxia, who was in a fit of anger upon hearing this, couldn't help but furrow her brow, her expression tinged with a hint of hostility.
"Do you want me to follow you back to your hometown? Hmp, why should I listen to you?"
"Because we come from the same origin, returning with me is your best choice."
The otherworldly beast explained with a chuckle.
Feng Banxia shook her head gently, "I am human, and moreover, I don't need to be insulted by my mother's tribe."
Seeing Feng Banxia's determined attitude, the otherworldly beast's expression also became somewhat unpleasant.
"Our tribal bloodline cannot be left scattered outside. Whether you agree or not, you must go back with me. If you do not agree, then I will have no choice but to take you back by force."
"You can try it."
Feng Banxia spoke in a deep voice, as soon as the words were out, she saw the otherworldly beast suddenly charge at her with lightning speed, even Feng Banxia didn't have time to react.
In a split second, the entire space turned crimson, and only a blood-red fist print was ruthlessly heading towards Feng Banxia.
Seeing this, Feng Banxia used all her skills to defend herself, but under the fierce attack of her opponent, she was pushed back in just a few moves.
Her eyes flickered with a cross-like pattern, Feng Banxia's power broke through the current realm.
In-battle breakthrough
However, even so, under the absolute strength difference, Feng Banxia was still unable to withstand a single move from her opponent.
"This guy..."
Feng Banxia was immediately terrified, she quickly stepped back, her face showing a look of horror.
Feng Banxia could sense the other party's terrifying strength. Perhaps, throughout their previous encounters, the other party had never put forth their full force, leading her to believe that she might be able to defeat them.
Now, the other party had given their all, and Feng Banxia found herself completely defenseless.
The otherworldly beast extended a hand and fiercely reached towards Feng Banxia.
This time, it seemed like he really meant to capture her.
Seeing this scene, Feng Banxia was a bit panicked. But in the face of such a terrifying strength difference, she had no strength to defend herself.
Boom, boom, boom.
Just as it was about to happen, three figures suddenly appeared in the sky, flying towards the otherworldly beast like meteorites falling to earth.
Upon seeing this, the otherworldly beast dared not continue his advance. He retreated continuously, narrowly avoiding the three figures who attacked him in succession.
"This... it's..."
Upon seeing the three figures who had landed, the otherworldly beast was shocked to the core. His eyes were staring straight at the three figures lying on the ground. These were his companions who had come with him.
The otherworldly beast was infuriated and looked up at the sky, where a figure was diving down as if it were an eagle.
"Scoundrel!"
The otherworldly beast roared with anger, and the anger in his heart reached its peak.
Seeing this scene, Feng Banxia couldn't help but feel a surge of joy and excitement. "Chen Mo..." she exclaimed.
"Thank goodness it's not too late."
Chen Mo smiled and turned to face his opponent. As the opponent attacked, Chen Mo lightly raised his sword.
However, such a light and casual movement made the otherworldly beast freeze instantly. He stopped in his tracks and stared at the sword in Chen Mo's hand with wide eyes. There was a hint of curiosity in his gaze, followed by fear.
"You, where did you get the sword in your hand?"
The otherworldly beast let out a loud cry, his voice shaking with a hint of trembling and anger.
As soon as these words were spoken, Feng Banxia was also stunned in shock. She stood there dumbfounded, gazing at the otherworldly beast before her.
He was too similar to her, both in his attire and appearance.
Feng Banxia remembered that the armor she was wearing was left to her by her mother before she died, saying it was a family heirloom from her father.
Thus, Feng Banxia had always worn it. When she saw the otherworldly beast wearing armor similar to her own, she began to have suspicions in her heart.
When the otherworldly beast said that they were of the same race, this further confirmed Feng Banxia's suspicions.
Now, he even recognizes his own sword.
The sword in Chen Mo's hand was the one Feng Banxia lent him. It was also a gift from her mother before she died, a family heirloom from her father.
"You... do you know the origin of this sword?"
Feng Banxia stood up, her breath became urgent, and her voice was filled with a questioning tone.
This might reveal her father's origins.
Although her mother had always told her that her father had died, young Feng Banxia had heard many things from the villagers. Her father was not dead.
He had abandoned her mother.
Her mother, unable to accept this truth, had been deceiving both Feng Banxia and herself.
The otherworldly beast glanced at Feng Banxia, then at Chen Mo standing in front of her, and suddenly as if remembering something, his expression suddenly stiffened.
"This sword, did you give to him?"
Feng Banxia did not hesitate to admit it, nodding slightly in response.
The otherworldly beast pressed further, his eyes fixed on Feng Banxia, "This sword does not belong to you. Tell me, where did you get it?"
"You..."
Feng Banxia's face turned pale slightly, and she stared at the otherworldly beast for a long time without speaking.
At this moment, Chen Mo stepped forward, breaking the silence with his first words, "Let me explain."
"This sword is his father's."
"What? Father?"
The otherworldly beast's eyes widened instantly, disbelief etched on his face as he stared at Feng Banxia, "No, that can't be, that can't be. He detests humans so much; how could he have fathered a child with one? Impossible, absolutely impossible."
Upon hearing this, Feng Banxia's heart suddenly jumped.
Her father detested humans.
That's why, that's why her father had to abandon her mother.
Why, if he disliked her mother so much, why did he still dare to provoke her mother.
"People can change, and so can their preferences. Things and people that were once hated won't always be like that. You've been apart for so long; how can you be sure whether he's changed his mind about his preferences?"
Chen Mo spoke, and for a moment, both Feng Banxia and the otherworldly beast were stunned.
Without a word, both Feng Banxia and the otherworldly beast turned to look at Chen Mo, their eyes filled with confusion, asking the same question in unison: "What do you know?"
The otherworldly beast was curious. He hadn't mentioned anything about that person, so how could he appear to know all about them.
Moreover, the Longjiu Continent had been cut off from the outside world for over ten thousand years. He should not have any knowledge of what's happening outside.
Could it be that he had met that person?
Feng Banxia also looked at Chen Mo curiously. About her own experiences, she had never mentioned anything, but Chen Mo knew that this sword was left by her father.
What's most important is that he actually knows something about her father...
Facing the questions of the two, Chen Mo did not rush to answer. He gently placed the sword down and swept his gaze over the surroundings, smiling and said, "Both of you, why don't we find a place to sit down and have a good talk?"
