Miss Loser is too enchanting

Xiaohuo, with Dugu Qianye in tow, landed in a clearing, only to find upon descent that the area was densely covered with a sort of serrated, brown grass; from a distance, it looked just like a huge swath of stones.

"Sister, what is this?" Xiaohuo, seeing that Dugu Qianye had gotten down and had been staring blankly at the grass, asked.

"This is Serrated Grass, be careful not to cut yourself on it. If its serrated edges cut your skin, it will take the opportunity to inject an anesthetic fluid into your body. Even those at the Divine King Peak would find it hard to resist. Recovery could take as little as half a day, or as long as ten to fifteen days," Dugu Qianye explained while carefully guiding Xiaohuo away.

Having exited the thicket of Serrated Grass, Dugu Qianye carefully transplanted a clump into the Refining Demon Pot.

"Let’s go see if there are any Spiritual Beasts around, find one and ask where to find the Fuyu Flower," Dugu Qianye said.

"Okay." To avoid causing Dugu Qianye any trouble, Xiaohuo immediately mimicked her form and perched on Dugu Qianye’s shoulder.

They had thought they would quickly encounter a Spiritual Beast, but even as darkness fell, they hadn’t seen a single living creature.

"Sister, why do I feel there’s something strange here?" Xiaohuo said, "Isn’t it said that there are a lot of Spiritual Beasts here? How come we haven’t encountered even one today?"

"It is indeed a bit strange," Dugu Qianye said while poking at the fire before her, "If the masters said they exist, they definitely do, or at least they used to. Either we haven’t encountered them yet, or something has happened here."

"So what do we do? If we can’t find a Spiritual Beast, we won’t know where to find the Fuyu Flower!" Xiaohuo exclaimed.
