Chapter 134 Steppe
She laughed while wondering if he was jealous. "I wanted to find a way to kill him." He can"t be. She thought. But he is certainly good at pretending.
"If you want to kill him that badly then… I can do it for you."
"Now, where is the fun in that?" she lifted an eyebrow.
Nodding, he smiled. "You are right." His lips thinned as he stared at her. "Since they are working with the Devil race, I think she might have someone of that race on his side. Probably another concubine. You know the best way to beat them, right?"
"Hmmm." She nodded.
"Well then…" Mo Li nodded. "They are camping outside of town. With his concubines."
Fang Yu beamed. There is no need to ask him where he got that information. Mo Li was just too deep, there is no way that she would be able to understand him. "Where are you going?" She immediately asked when he stood. She didn"t hide the little disappointment in her voice.
"You needed to rest. For your journey tomorrow."
"Oh!" Fang Yu smiled and stood next to him. "Are you going to kill some people?" She could still see the sinister glint in his eyes.
"Yes. But since you are planning to take care of Xiawen Dong. I won"t touch him tonight."
"Hmmm." She tiptoed and kissed his cheek. "You have to come back alive." It was an order and Mo Li immediately smiled at her words.
"Of course." He lowered his head and kissed her forehead. Of course, he would come back for her.
When Fang Yu raised her head again, Mo Li was no longer in front of her. She eyed the blood on the bed and sigh. She then cleaned the sheets and decided to retire for the night.
...
On the next day, Fang Yu and the others gathered outside of the ruins. Just as expected, Xiawen Dong was the one escorting the other disciples from Frozen Wraith Sect. Next to him were four beauties that Fang Yu never saw before.
Xiawen Dong looked at the people from the Eight Palms Sect, a tinge of irritation flashed in his face when she noticed that Fang Yu was not one of the Elders accompanying the young disciples.
"Since everyone is here. I think we should go inside at the same time." One elder from the Dark Spire Sect spoke. "Once you go inside, you will be transported in different parts of the ruins." He reminded everyone. "Just be careful."
Fang Yu immediately looked at Ji Tian. As the male lead, he should have ways to survive so she was not worried that he will die in this exploration. What she was worried is for the person who reincarnated to get the treasure before she could take it.
Of course, she was confident that she would be able to find the treasure using Mo Li"s map. Fang Yu continued to act low key, not really talking to anyone else except to Ji Tian and occasionally to Yunyun and fatty Lu. After a few minutes of explanation, everyone gathered to the entrance where Fang Yu examined earlier. Then they walked inside.
Fang Yu felt herself falling, she felt her stomach turned as she closed her eyes. Is this the feeling of going inside a small dimension?
*THUD*
Fang Yu immediately stood when she hit the ground. Looking at her current surroundings, she realized that she was in a desert. She closed her eyes as she accessed the map that Mo Li gave her. She actually landed in the farthest place from the underground castle where the treasure was located.
Yep. She immediately blamed her negative luck.
She gave a wry smile as she started running towards the castle. Her goal for today was simple, take the recipe and the treasure, leave this place before anyone would notice, and go to the town where Dong Hu used to live. If her luck would cooperate, which she knew would never happen, she could finish this task in about three days. Fang Yu inhaled the hot air around her before she started running.
After a few hours of running and avoiding beasts, Fang Yu started to notice the change in scenery. The sand lessened and she could see plants growing. Soon, she saw a steppe - a flat area full of gra.s.s but no trees. She remembered that after the dessert, there will be a vast steppe before she could find trees. However, this area is where the danger would start as this gra.s.s was not some harmless plant.
Well, they sure looked harmless to anyone, but she knew that the blades of each gra.s.s are real blades, each one has poisons. One cut and it could paralyze people for days. It wouldn"t be enough to kill people but definitely enough to make someone with weak cultivation unconscious.
To move past this place, one needed to fly. But for someone who was at least in the fifth level in the Qi Condensation stage, flying for an hour is too taxing. This steppe is too vast and Fang Yu was sure that one would need at least four hours to traverse the whole plain. Good thing she was no longer someone from the Qi Condensation stage. Fang Yu immediately started flying as she made a plan to gather some of the gra.s.ses and bring it out of this place.
She was planning to plant it around her cave! Or maybe use it to create some poisons. After about two hours of flying, Fang Yu finally found a small tree. The one who created this plain was too smart. The person will traverse the plains needed to have at least eight-level in the Qin condensation stage to be able to arrive in this tree.
Of course, she rested on the tree, pretending that her energy also ran out—she was planning to keep her disguise. After sitting on the branch, Fang Yu started to do her next plan. Collect the gra.s.s! Using all the knowledge that she found in Fang Yu"s memory, she extracted the gra.s.s around the trees one by one. Slowly, the plants around the tree vanished. But it wasn"t enough to make her stop. To a normal cultivator, collecting such gra.s.s in this amount would sound too crazy. After all, this will consume a lot of s.p.a.ce in their s.p.a.ce treasures.
This gra.s.s is not that useful to a lot of people. Of course, as someone who has affinities to s.p.a.ce, Fang Yu"s s.p.a.ce can be considered boundless.
"Hey, you!" Fang Yu turned towards the two people flying towards her way.
"We are planning to rest on this tree! You should leave!"
