In the bamboo forest.
Gu An watched as the Demon Beast slowly devoured the surrounding flesh.
Once he was sure they had no backup plan, he turned his attention to the Demon Beast.
After finishing its meal, the Demon Beast stared back at Gu An.
There wasn't much hostility.
After all, the Spiritual Medicine it wanted was still there, so it didn't have any thoughts of fighting to the death.
Gu An looked at the beast, hoping it would leave this place.
But he wasn't sure how to start speaking.
Luckily, the beast had no intention of lingering either.
It started to retreat step by step.
Seeing this, Gu An breathed a sigh of relief.
Once the beast fully withdrew, Gu An looked somewhat pained as he glanced at the fallen bamboo.
It was quite a pity.
*Even if he might not have been able to cut it down himself in the end, seeing it fall like this still felt like a waste.*
Afterward, Gu An tidied up the battlefield a bit.
There wasn't much alteration.
