Chapter 869: Dark Night Seas (3)
“Everyone, attack together!” Leng Ruoxue ordered, and Feng Da and the others started moving.
At the side, Ren Xuan looked at their well-trained movements and could not help but click his tongue. Oh! These people were really fast.
About two hours later, they finally finished gathering the herbs on the mountain and at the foot of the mountain.
“Hehe! I’ve really gained a lot from this trip! Ren Xuan, thank you. This is a pill I refined myself. I’ll give it to you as a thank you.” Zheng En took out a white jade porcelain bottle and handed it to Ren Xuan. It could be seen that he was really happy, and the corners of his mouth were constantly curled up.
“No… thank you! Then I won’t stand on ceremony.” Ren Xuan wanted to say that there was no need, but when he opened the porcelain bottle and saw the medicinal pill inside, he couldn’t refuse. This was because it actually contained a Heaven Grade pill, the Spirit Convergence Pill! Even though the Spirit Convergence Pill only had the effect of replenis.h.i.+ng spiritual energy and might not be of much use usually, it was very useful at critical moments. Moreover, this was a Heaven-level medicinal pill. It was definitely priceless!
However, he was more interested in the person who could refine the Spirit Convergence Pill. He did not expect this inconspicuous man to be an alchemist grandmaster. This really surprised him. One had to know that an alchemist grandmaster was not a cabbage, and it was even more difficult to befriend a Grandmaster Alchemist. Hehe! No wonder his master said that he was very lucky. Now it seemed that it was true!
However, he was so lucky that no one would be jealous! If a random companion could find a Grandmaster Alchemist, no one would believe him. Of course, he would not be stupid enough to tell anyone.
However, after knowing that Zheng En was an Grandmaster Alchemist, the way he looked at Leng Ruoxue and the others immediately changed.
“Don’t look at us like that, or you’ll regret it,” Leng Ruoxue warned.
“Hehe! I’m just a little excited. My luck is a little too good!” Ren Xuan said excitedly.
“You’re excited in three months! It’s a little early.” Leng Ruoxue poured cold water on him.
“Uh! That’s true!” Ren Xuan calmed down, but his fiery eyes still drifted to Zheng En from time to time.
“Don’t look at me like that. I’m not interested in men.” Zheng En’s hair stood on end from Ren Xuan’s gaze and he hurriedly said.
“I’m not interested in men either. I’m just interested in alchemists,” Ren Xuan said honestly.
“Then don’t look at me with that disgusting gaze. Otherwise, I’ll beat you up!” Zheng clenched his fists and warned.
“Uh! You’re so violent.” Ren Xuan shrank his head and lowered it, not daring to look at Zheng En again. Boohoo… The situation was pressing, so he had to lower his head! Who asked him to be alone!
“Everyone is a little tired today. Let’s camp here! We’ll walk in tomorrow.” Leng Ruoxue calmly looked at Ren Xuan, who looked aggrieved, and said with a light smile.
“Okay.” Everyone nodded and got to work…
Three days later.
Leng Ruoxue and the others walked almost a quarter of the way in the Dark Night Seas, and the herbs and minerals they pa.s.sed naturally fell into their pockets.
“Miss, this place is really big. If we really have to stay here for three months, I think we have to find a fixed place to camp,” Cheng Wu suggested.
“Yes, let’s find a suitable place while walking! After all, there are still many places we haven’t been to!” Leng Ruoxue thought for a moment and said.
“Yeah.” They all nodded.
Suddenly, there was a rustling in the woods where they were…
“What’s that noise?” Peach asked fearfully. Why did it sound so pathetic?
“Lü Tao, don’t be afraid. I’ll protect you.” Feng Da quickly comforted her. At the same time, everyone rolled their eyes at him.
Rustle! Rustle! The sound grew louder and reached their ears from all directions, accompanied by a fishy smell…
“Everyone, be careful.” Leng Ruoxue thought for a moment and held the ‘cold shadow’ in her hand. She already knew what this sound was coming from.
As soon as Leng Ruoxue finished speaking, a black shadow as fast as lightning suddenly pounced at her. The “cold shadow” in her hand turned and directly split the black shadow into two. Then, everyone saw a black snake as thick as an arm lying on the ground, its broken body still twisting…
More than that. In an instant, more snakes surged toward them from all directions.
They were now standing in a small copse of trees, so many of the snakes were poking their heads out of the branches, staring at them with dark eyes like prey.
“d.a.m.n it, where did so many snakes come from!” Ren Xuan said with his scalp tingling. He hated snakes the most. They looked strangely disgusting.
“Hehe! Delicious humans.” At this moment, the snakes made way for a golden python that crawled out slowly. It was not difficult to tell that it was the king of these snakes.
“Oh! A delicious snake.” Leng Ruoxue looked at the golden python as if she was looking at a prey.
The golden python was huge, almost a hundred meters long and about ten meters thick. The scales on its body were as transparent as golden crystal, and there were complicated dark patterns on them. In short, it was a rather beautiful snake.
“I can’t eat humans.” The golden python was furious when it heard Leng Ruoxue’s words!
“You’re just a small snake, what’s there to not eat?” Leng Ruoxue asked with a faint smile.
“Little snake? How am I small? Open your eyes and take a good look. Am I small?” The golden python roared.
“Oh! It doesn’t look small, and it’s quite fat. There’s also quite a lot of meat, enough for us to eat,” Leng Ruoxue said with a smile.
“d.a.m.n it, human, I told you I can’t eat it,” The Golden Python snarled, his temper flaring. He was clearly furious.
“Calm down. In my eyes, you can eat it. Moreover, it should taste good.” Leng Ruoxue smiled. Well! This snake was a level-nine Transcendent Divine Beast! She had never eaten such a high-level snake before!
“d.a.m.n it! I can’t eat it!” The golden python’s anger surged. Then, it directly ordered its subordinates, “Go, except for this woman, everything else is yours.”
