Chapter 72 - Robbing The Fire Rhinoceros King
I didn"t expect spirit beasts to engage in trade, Leng Ruoxue thought.
"How much do you have then?"
"A lot. We fire rhinoceroses aren"t interested in honey," the fire rhinoceros king said. But it also knew that the honey was something good, so it kept it.
"Then give me all your crystal honey as my reward for helping you," Leng Ruoxue said bluntly. Spirit beasts that need to be robbed had to be robbed properly.
"Y-yes."
"I"ll go with it to get the honey. Watch over here," Leng Ruoxue said to Ye Chen and even specially left Charm and Darling behind.
.
"Okay, be careful on the way."
Leng Ruoxue followed the somewhat shaky fire rhinoceros king to a cave. After entering the cave, she saw that the entire cave was planted with trees half the size of a human. The trees were full of fist-sized fiery red fruits, and the fruits contained spiritual energy. They were definitely good things in the eyes of ordinary people, but she wasn"t interested in these fruits.
"It"s all here." The fire rhinoceros king pointed at the bottles piled in the corner.
Leng Ruoxue looked at the bottles casually piled up in the corner by the fire rhinoceros king and couldn"t help being a little surprised. She didn"t expect there to be so many. She casually picked up a bottle that should be made of beeswax and opened it to see that it could hold approximately five kilograms of honey. She counted that there were about 30 similar bottles in the corner. Isn"t this more than one hundred and fifty kilograms…
Leng Ruoxue unceremoniously stored all the bottles into her ring. Since the fire rhinoceroses didn"t like honey anyway, of course she couldn"t give this advantage to others.
By the time she returned with the fire rhinoceros king, the battle was almost over. Some people were cleaning up the battlefield, while others were cleaning the snake meat.
"You worked quickly!" Leng Ruoxue praised. They really satisfied her more and more.
"Xue"er, how was it?" Ye Chen asked. Seems like she had a good harvest!
"Not bad, about one hundred and fifty kilograms."
"That much?" Ye Chen was slightly surprised.
"Miss, one hundred and fifty kilograms of what?" Lin Yuan, who was making a fire at the side, asked curiously.
"Crystal honey."
"…"
"We"re rich! we"re rich!" Lin Yuan shouted with a silly smile after being stunned for a moment.
"Miss, here is some holy beast meat." Feng Da handed Leng Ruoxue a piece of cleaned meat.
"Thank you." Leng Ruoxue took the meat and began grilling it.
"What are you standing there for? Go and do your work!" Feng Da nudged Lin Yuan.
"O-oh!"
"Wow, this water python meat is even better than the earth python meat!"
"Yeah, it"s really delicious!"
Everyone couldn"t help but exclaim in admiration as they ate the water python meat. When everyone was satisfied with eating the grilled meat, it was almost night. They simply packed up and started walking back.
"Miss, aren"t we going to fly back?" Cui Zhu couldn"t help asking curiously when she saw that her young miss didn"t intend to ride the flying spirit beast.
"Flying right after eating, do you want to become a pig?" Leng Ruoxue gently knocked Cui Zhu on the head.
"See, you were scolded!" Lü Tao looked at Cui Zhu with some amus.e.m.e.nt.
"Master, there"s a sound over there," Charm, who was lying on Leng Ruoxue"s shoulder, reminded her.
"Where? Let"s go take a look," Leng Ruoxue said. It was a good time to exercise after eating.
"Go to the right."
Everyone curiously walked in the direction Charm had pointed out. Before they approached, they saw an ugly spirit beast that was as tall as a hill.
"Master, it"s an earth lizard," Charm said. This earth lizard was not as high level as the one he had fought, but it was at least level eight.
"Beloved Master, earth lizards are the most annoying. Not only are they ugly, but they also don"t like cleanliness. But they are very strong, and ordinary spirit beasts aren"t their match," Darling said with a look of disdain.
Leng Ruoxue"s beautiful eyes observed the situation in front of her. The enormous earth lizard was riddled with wounds, and its opponent was a beautiful cloud-patterned white tiger. This white tiger was a level seven holy beast, a lower level than the earth lizard. The injuries on its body were also more serious than those of the earth lizard, and it was obvious that it was hanging on by a thread. Blood had long stained its beautiful white fur. There was a cave behind them, and miserable groans were constantly coming from it. Leng Ruoxue guessed that the reason this tiger could last until now was probably to protect its loved ones in the cave.
"Darling, go help that tiger. Charm and I will take a look at the cave!" Leng Ruoxue said. She had a good impression of this tiger which protected its loved ones with its life and wanted to help it.
"Okay!" Darling said reluctantly. I wanted to be together with my cute master. Boohoo…
Leng Ruoxue and Charm quietly entered the cave, but what they saw after entering surprised her a little. There was also a pure white tiger in the cave, and it was also a level seven holy beast. She originally thought that the white tiger was injured, but when she got closer, she realized that the white tiger was in labor and seemed to be having a difficult birth.
Hearing sounds, the cloud-striped white tiger turned her head in pain and looked at Leng Ruoxue vigilantly. "Human, I won"t let you succeed!" Humans shouldn"t even think about s.n.a.t.c.hing my child away from me.
"I"m here to help you," Leng Ruoxue explained to the white tiger. She knew that some humans liked to steal spirit beast cubs, so it was no wonder that this tiger was so vigilant.
"Do you think I will believe the words of a human? Humans are all despicable and shameless!" The mother white tiger"s blue eyes were full of disbelief and disdain.
"You don"t have to believe me. But if your child doesn"t come out, I"m afraid both your lives will be lost, right?" Leng Ruoxue reminded her from where she was standing without moving forward. High-level holy beasts were as intelligent as humans, so she believed that the white tiger would think it through.
The white tiger fell silent.
"My master isn"t that kind of human!" Charm said angrily when he saw that the white tiger didn"t reply. This stinky tiger really doesn"t know how to appreciate favors. But he didn"t deny that what she said was true. It was also because he had interacted with humans for a long time that he knew that not all humans were like that.
"Purple-eyed snow fox!" The mother white tiger, which had been thinking, looked at the small and cute white fox lying on the human"s shoulder in astonishment. As a spirit beast, she was very clear about the status of purple-eyed snow foxes among spirit beasts. She didn"t expect a n.o.ble purple-eyed snow fox to acknowledge a human as his master.
