Chapter 949: Chapter 946 Clues Chapter 949: Chapter 946 Clues “How do you know that Lili'er disappeared here?” Liu Feixu stared at Shen Luo with a skeptical gaze and asked, frowning.

“I encountered you here before, and this time you brought me straight here again, which clearly shows you often linger in this place. I think this must be the place where Lili'er disappeared. You keep coming here to look for any clues you might have missed.” Shen Luo said calmly.

“She is my sister, closer to me than a real sister. Do you really know where she is?” Hearing this, Liu Feixu's expression softened, and she almost pleaded.

“Do you still think I abducted her?” Shen Luo asked seriously upon hearing this.

“I just… really want to find her…” Liu Feixu's face showed a sorrowful look, and she murmured.

Seeing this, Shen Luo sighed, and a faint light flashed in his eyes as he began to employ the Xuan Yin Mystifying Pupil, looking around him.

“Did you manage to injure that person?” A moment later, he frowned and asked, somewhat surprised.

“My arrow grazed his shoulder, but unfortunately didn't hit him,” Liu Feixu suddenly lifted her head and nodded vigorously in response.

“No, you did hit him, or you would have found that arrow by now.” Shen Luo's lips curled into a smile as he spoke.

Upon hearing this, Liu Feixu's expression changed again, “How do you know that arrow was lost?”

“Because you hit that scoundrel, and he fled with the arrow. You just didn't notice the blood left on the ground, so you assumed you missed, but in fact, you did wound him.” Shen Luo said with a smile.

“Impossible, I checked carefully. If I really hit him, how could I have failed to find any blood?” Liu Feixu said, getting agitated.

“The one who abducted Lili'er is likely a Gold Glaze Demon, which can transform into colored glaze radiance and change into various forms. Moreover, its blood is quite special, usually transparent and colorless.” As he spoke, Shen Luo picked a leaf from the ground and handed it over.

Liu Feixu, half-believing, took the leaf from his hand and examined it closely before her eyes.

“The blood of Gold Glaze does not evaporate when it dries, but instead forms into crystal-like substances. Hold the leaf up to the sunlight, and you should be able to see it,” Shen Luo continued.

Liu Feixu went to an area where the trees were sparse and sunlight filtered through, held up the leaf to the sun, and indeed found a thin layer of transparent crystals on the surface of the leaf, refracting the sunlight.

“Now, do you believe me?” Shen Luo asked.

“I've never heard of a Gold Glaze Demon before. How can I know what you're saying is true or false?” Liu Feixu hesitated.

“That's easy to verify. I'll show you the area where the crystals are scattered. Recall the route that the kidnapper took when he fled, and you should be able to judge whether what I've said is true or not,” Shen Luo confidently suggested with a smile.

After saying this, he continued to use the Xuan Yin Mystifying Pupil to search and pointed out a possible escape route of the Gold Glaze Demon in the mountain forest.

Liu Feixu followed the trail and finally confirmed that it was completely consistent with what she had seen on the day of the disappearance.

She looked at Shen Luo for a long while, with what seemed like a hint of apology in the depths of her eyes. But her lips were pressed tight, unable to verbalize an apology, and she stammered, “Are you truly… willing to help find Lili'er?”

“Of course, this matter concerns my innocence as well. Helping you is helping myself. Besides, if I manage to make a meritorious deed, Granny Sun might just give me a Nine Brahmanic Lotus,” Shen Luo said with a laugh.

“You shouldn't get your hopes up about the Nine Brahmanic Lotus. Even if you help find Lili'er, Granny won't give it to you. That item is also important to Daughter Village, not something that can be given away to outsiders,” Liu Feixu said, her tone now free from the previous coldness.

Shen Luo nodded noncommittally, not holding out much hope. If that failed, resorting to desperate measures would be the only option left.

“If Lili'er was indeed kidnapped by the Golden Lucent Beast, I believe she wouldn't be in too much danger. Such demons are known for their mild nature, and there have been few reports of them attacking other species. Neither have they been known for a bloodthirsty and cruel reputation. However, once they make a move, there's always a hidden reason behind it, and I fear it could involve more than just one Golden Lucent Beast,” Shen Luo said, looking into the distance.

“But have you offended this demon before?” Liu Feixu asked.

“I've never encountered this demon in the past. The only reason I know of it is from a story a little monk from Chang'an once told me,” Shen Luo replied helplessly.

The information about the Golden Lucent Beast was something Little Monk Jiang Liu had shared with him on the way to the Western Regions.

Liu Feixu was somewhat disappointed upon hearing this.

Now, even if they knew that Lili'er was taken by the Golden Lucent Beast, it seemed to be of no use.

“Don't lose heart; at least knowing that Lili'er is in the hands of the Golden Lucent Beast can be considered good news,” Shen Luo comforted her.

Upon hearing this, Liu Feixu nodded and said nothing more.

“By the way, your Daughter Village is skilled in poison and adept at cultivating all kinds of exotic flowers and plants. Does your tribe have any other kind of Spirit Grass that can prolong life?” Shen Luo changed the subject and asked.

“As you said, we are adept at poisons; where would we have any Spirit Grass that prolongs life?” Liu Feixu gave him a reproachful glance and countered.

Shen Luo was momentarily at a loss for words.

“However, while the world of medicinal herbs is divided into spiritual and poisonous, it also depends on how they are used. Some poisonous herbs, if used well, can also have the effect of spiritual medicine, or even better. But I've never heard of any poison that prolongs life. Why don't you check the shops in the village? Perhaps you'll find what you're looking for,” Liu Feixu suggested after some thought.

“There are shops in the village?” Shen Luo asked, surprised.

“Nonsense, our Daughter Village cultivates so many poisonous herbs and Spirit Grasses. Do you think we use them all ourselves? Of course, we trade a part of them with the outside world,” Liu Feixu explained.

“Since there's trade and exchange, there must be other Spiritual Materials. Can you take me to have a look?” Shen Luo's eyes brightened as he spoke.

Liu Feixu hesitated for a moment and then said, “Alright.”

The two returned to the village and made their way inside, passing the Jade Medicine Garden on their journey. After a while, they finally arrived at a relatively open area.

This place was slightly different from the dense woods elsewhere; here stood a stone-paved square that covered a substantial area.

On the north side of the Square, there was a row of single-story Wooden buildings connected together, totaling seven or eight rooms, with a simple signboard hung above, inscribed plainly with the words “Shop.”

These exteriors seemed far too ordinary, even a bit shabby compared to the conventional shops found in regular streets.

“Could there really be what I'm looking for here?” Shen Luo couldn't help but doubt inwardly.
