"Wukong, let's stop here!"
With the colossal Wukong as their mount, the trio had reached the core area in just a few hours.
Moving forward would take them out of the forest, so Ning Mengyao patted Wukong's ear.
The spiritual beast obediently halted its steps and lay down on the ground.
"Seems like you're getting more proficient at controlling it."
Lin Fan jumped to the ground with a smile, looking at the giant ape that remained properly sprawled there.
This fellow was now completely obedient to Ning Mengyao.
"Don't worry, it's just my pet, you are my true love."
Ning Mengyao smiled as she snuggled into Lin Fan's embrace.
The formidable aspect of the Charming Skill was that as long as it was a living being, it would be affected by her.
"It's just your sweet talk."
Lin Fan pinched Ning Mengyao's cheek with a smile, then led the two women out of the dense foliage.
While standing on Wukong's shoulder, he had already spotted the dried-up lakebed in the distance.
