Chapter 88:
Noon.
Qiao Mu and his companions arrived at a temporary inn by the official road to rest for a while.
Most of them in the group were martial artists ranked above the 5th rank. However, even if they had reached the 5th rank in internal strength, they were still ordinary flesh and blood. Naturally, they would feel hungry and tired, just like their horses.
The group of nine people were not familiar with each other, except for the mysterious Star Xuan Envoy. They had met for the first time, so they didn’t talk much.
After Qiao Mu ate and drank his fill, he brought along some food and walked out of the inn. He waited quietly for a while and then heard a rustling sound coming from the grass. The little kitten popped its head out of the bushes to look at him.
"So you followed me out of the city, huh? Can’t outrun a horse? Well, after all, you are a demon cat."
The little kitten had eaten its fill, but instead of going far away this time, it leaped behind Qiao Mu and landed in his shadow. Its figure gradually turned into a black phantom until it completely disappeared.
"Hiding in the shadow? Such a peculiar ability…" Qiao Mu was slightly envious.
Each demon creature had unique abilities, cultivators had various methods, but only martial artists took a beating.
