The Good-for-Nothing's Counterattack: Full-time Spiritual Master
Chapter 374 No Money
The maid stood quietly outside the fitting room. Time passed quietly, but she still didn't get a response from Gu Li.
Her beautiful brows were slightly furrowed, and the uneasiness in her heart grew stronger like a tide.
She paused, raised her voice a little, and called out again: "Girl, do you need any help?"
However, all she got in response was still deathly silence. The entire space seemed to be shrouded in an invisible oppression, and no one responded to her cries.
The maid paced back and forth at the door, feeling uneasy.
After waiting for a while, she slowly raised her hand and knocked on the door gently: "Girl, I'm coming in."
After receiving no response, the maid cautiously opened the door of the fitting room.
The sound of the door hinges turning was particularly clear in the silent atmosphere. She looked inside and saw that there was no one inside, except for the dark red dress hanging there alone.
Her face turned pale instantly, and she quickly shouted: "Oh no, the girl is missing."
This shout was like thunderclap out of the blue. Upon hearing the maid's voice, Xuanxi and others hurried over from all directions. Their footsteps were hurried and messy, with a hint of panic.
Seeing the empty fitting room, Xu Xi's eyes instantly became sharp and cold, and he asked, "What's going on?"
The maid's face was filled with fear, and her voice was filled with tears: "I don't know either. There was no movement from inside the girl. I opened the door, and there was no one inside."
Xuanxi turned his head suddenly and looked at the shopkeeper, his eyes full of suspicion and questioning: "Did you do this?"
The shopkeeper was already so frightened that his face turned pale and his body was trembling slightly. He waved his hands and said hurriedly: "We don't know what happened. It wasn't arranged by me."
He knew very well that the girl in front of him seemed to be a very important person. If she disappeared from his shop, he was afraid that she would not be able to escape death.
Xuanxi snorted coldly: "It better not be you, otherwise you are dead."
The shopkeeper fell to his knees with a thud, almost begging, "Even if I were given a hundred guts, I wouldn't dare to harm anyone from the Demon Palace!"
Xu Xi ignored him and looked at his men beside him, with an unquestionable command in his eyes: "Send someone to look for her. The girl must be found."
"Yes." The others quickly split up and their figures soon disappeared in all directions.
Xuanxi slowly walked into the empty fitting room, his eyes full of regret. He thought to himself that he should not have brought her out if he had known earlier.
He looked around carefully, but found no obvious traces around, everything seemed so calm and natural.
However, when his eyes fell on the ground, he found some soil that was slowly being filled back.
He squatted down, picked up some and sniffed it, but found nothing unusual.
He already knew how the person disappeared. Someone must have taken the girl away from underground, but he had no way to go underground and search along the way.
To be able to take someone away quietly right under their noses, the other party must be stronger than all of them.
Thinking that the girl had the power of the Demon Emperor in her body, he felt relieved and thought that the girl's life was probably not in danger.
However, they lost the person, and the adults will definitely not forgive them. They must find a way to make up for it.
He never thought that Gu Li escaped on her own. After all, her cultivation was so low. In his opinion, it was impossible for her to do that.
At the same time, in the dark world underground, Xiao Tengteng and Gu Li were still struggling to escape.
Finally, in an inconspicuous place on the ground, a thin vine slowly emerged. It was like a cautious scout, carefully exploring the front, back, left and right.
After there was no one around, he brought Gu Li out of the ground.
Xiao Tengteng retracted her vines and released Gu Li from the dark underground world.
Gu Li brushed off the non-existent dust on his body, and then began to look around. He saw dense trees and various strange magical grasses all around.
Little Tengteng was the first to speak, with a hint of confusion in her voice: "Master, where are we?"
Gu Li shook his head and said helplessly: "I don't know either."
She has never been here, so it would be strange if she knew.
She knew that she was in the demon world and danger could come at any time.
So, she quickly switched the spiritual veins in her body to demonic veins.
In an instant, the pure spiritual energy that originally emanated from her disappeared, and was replaced by a constant flow of demonic energy.
The evil spirit lingered around her, as if covering her with a layer of protective gauze.
After sensing the location of the natal lock in his body, Gu Li took a pill, changed his clothes, and ran quickly in one direction.
Time flies. Half a month later, outside a tea shop in a small town in the Star River Wasteland, a handsome young man was sitting quietly in a chair drinking tea.
He had an extremely handsome face, and his black clothes moved in the wind, exuding a unique charm.
The little bird chirped and complained in the space: "Master, why don't you let me take you to fly, otherwise we would have arrived long ago."
Gu Li gently put down the teacup, with a hint of caution in his eyes: "This is the Demon Realm, you will attract a lot of attention if you come out."
An Ci Ye had seen her contracted beast, although the demon world was vast and it was not certain that she would encounter it.
But it is better to be safe than sorry. Besides, the appearance of a monster like Xiao Quezi here would be particularly abrupt and easily cause unnecessary trouble.
The sun shone in the corner of the tea shop. Little Teng Teng curiously stretched out a thin vine and imitated Gu Li, moving close to the teacup and gently touching the rim of the cup, as if trying to imitate the action of drinking tea.
It is originally a demon plant. There are many demon plants in the demon world. It is not afraid of being suspected with its appearance.
Gu Li took a short rest beside the tea table. When she woke up after a short nap, she rubbed her sleepy eyes and was about to pay and continue on her way.
But at this moment, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind, and then an embarrassed expression appeared on her face.
Only then did she realize that she seemed to have no common currency in the demon world.
In this strange demonic world, you can't take a single step without money.
Gu Li whispered, "Xiao Teng Teng, why don't you go steal some money."
The little vine shook its vines, as if shaking its head, and replied in a voice transmission: "Master, other people's money is kept in the space, how can I steal it!"
After hearing this, Gu Li's mouth twitched unconsciously and he secretly groaned in his heart.
She knew in her heart that in the current situation, she might have to drink the Overlord Tea.
There are quite a few other treasures stored in her space, and those treasures are extremely valuable in the human world.
But in the demon world, they are like waste and cannot be used at all.
