Chapter 924 - 924 Unexpected Gain
924 Unexpected Gain
No matter what predicament the Empress and the Grand Preceptor’s wife were about to face, Ye Jiushang and Xue Fanxin were still living their peaceful and happy lives.
After a few days of training, Xue Fanxin had already adapted to using the strength needed to lift fifteen kilograms. Now, she still has energy after running ten laps a day. Her body had become stronger day by day, and her stamina and brute force had also increased greatly. Now, she could run dozens of kilometers in one breath, and she did not feel tired.
Today was also the day that the st.i.tches needed to be removed from the female elk. The male elk went to the forest early to look for Xue Fanxin and brought her to the cave abode.
Xue Fanxin followed the male elk and went to the cave to remove the st.i.tches for the female elk. At the same time, she gave her a simple examination and treatment. After finishing, she instructed her on some things to take note of and left.
The two elks had no intention of keeping Xue Fanxin, as if they were wary of her. When the male elk sent Xue Fanxin out of the cave abode, he placed a leather bag in front of her. “This is your reward. I hope you won’t come here again after taking these things, and don’t spread the news about us.”
!!
Xue Fanxin picked up the leather bag and opened it to take a look. She realized that it contained quite a few five-colored spirit crystals inside. Roughly speaking, there were at least 30 to 40.
One five-colored spirit crystal was enough to start a war between the upper echelons of the three great sects, let alone 30 to 40.
She had to put this thing away. She could not leak news of it, or trouble would definitely come looking for her.
“Alright, I’ll take this.” Xue Fanxin was not wishy washy. She could tell that the male elk was distant and wary. Clearly, it did not want to have anything to do with her anymore, so she was straightforward. “Don’t worry, I won’t leak your news. But let me remind you that others already know that there are five-colored elks here. I think you should know about this.”
“As long as you keep it a secret, you don’t have to worry about anything else.” The male elk did not want to say too much to Xue Fanxin, and its guard against her was still up. It turned around and left after saying one last sentence.
Although this human had saved its wife and child, humans were ultimately humans and could not be trusted too much.
It had already given quite a few five-colored spirit crystals to repay this human’s kindness. It hoped that she would be satisfied. Otherwise, it would not let go of even its savior.
Xue Fanxin did not think too much about it. Saving the female elk was just out of goodwill. She had never thought of asking for any reward. These 30 to 40 five-colored spirit crystals were an unexpected gain.
Since these two elk did not want to have anything to do with her, she naturally would not force them. From now on, they will go their separate ways.
The male elk hid in the dark. Seeing that Xue Fanxin had really left, it returned to the cave abode with relief.
When the female elk saw that the male elk had returned, it asked, “Is what we’re doing really right? This human is extraordinary. Perhaps our child will have a better future by following her.”
“Could it be that you want our child to contract with a human? The blood of a divine beast flows in our bodies. We are descendants of a divine beast. How can we willingly degenerate into a contract beast for humans? Our child has special feelings for that human. We can’t let it come into contact with this human again. I’ve already given that human a lot of remuneration, enough to repay her kindness, so don’t think too much about it.”
“Alright, I’ll listen to you. I hope we made the right choice.”
At this moment, these two elk did not know that they had missed a good opportunity to become a divine beast again.
Some opportunities, once missed, were forever missed.
