Chu Tianlu's knowledge of the Spirit Knowledge Fruit came from the family's ancient books. Could it be that it was written wrong? But that was not right. Even if the ancient books were wrong, the Giant Sky Devouring Crocodile had no reason to help deceive people, right?
Lin Yi also fell into deep thought. Logically speaking, it was unlikely that a heavenly treasure like the Spirit Knowledge Fruit would appear at the same time, but nothing was absolute. Perhaps something had happened.
In any case, since he knew there was a second Spirit Knowledge Fruit, Lin Yi could not ignore it. He was still counting on this thing to help him completely resolve the nine spirit tumors.
"In that case, please lead the way." Although it was a request, Lin Yi's tone was unquestionable. Not to mention that he had saved their lives, even if they did not know each other, in this world where strength was respected, the other party would not dare to refuse.
Bai Jingze was somewhat reluctant. He had been planning to sneak back, but now his plan had failed. The key was that he had almost torn all pretense of cordiality with Zhang Qingfeng. He did not even have the chance to respond perfunctorily, so he could only obediently lead the way.
Their destination wasn't far. After all, with the speed of the black swarm, and Bai Jingze and Zhang Qingfeng were only experts at the Great Circle of Foundation Establishment, being able to escape this far was already their limit. Any further and they wouldn't be able to escape.
Along the way, they encountered some scattered black insects from time to time. There were not many of them, but if Lin Yi was not present, the others would probably have a headache. None of them could use fire attribute martial skills, so there was no way to deal with them. But now it was simple. Lin Yi could easily open a path with a Frenzied Fist.
Not long after, the group of five came to a rather secluded and remote place. The terrain of Tai Snake Island was simple. Under the cover of the dense forest, there were many places that were rarely known. If they did not come here by chance, ordinary people would not find it even if they walked along the path ten times.
"That's it." Bai Jingze stopped, and Zhang Qingfeng did the same. They pointed a direction for Lin Yi and the others. There was nothing eye-catching in front of them. There were no towering trees, no exotic flowers or plants. At first glance, it was just a clump of ordinary weeds, but under the cover of the weeds, there was a faint bright red outline.
"The stench of snakes! It really is the Spirit Knowledge Fruit! " Chu Tianlu was stunned at a glance. He did not believe it on the way here, thinking that it might just be somewhat similar to the Spirit Knowledge Fruit, but after smelling the iconic snake-like smell, he no longer had any doubts. There was no doubt that this was a genuine Spirit Knowledge Fruit.
Lin Yi was also a bit dumbfounded. He was the same as Chu Tianlu. Although he held quite a bit of hope in his heart, he didn't really believe it rationally. Now, however, seeing it with his own eyes was the truth.
"In such a remote place, with such a ferocious swarm of black insects guarding it, it's no wonder no one has discovered this Spiritual Knowledge Fruit." Bing Wuqing's tone could be considered calm. She no longer coveted the Spirit Knowledge Fruit. Even if Lin Yi offered it to her, she would not take it. For her, the Spirit Knowledge Fruit was far less cost-effective than a top-grade Gathering Nascent Pill. Moreover, she could use this to leave a good impression in Lin Yi's heart that she was not a glutton, killing two birds with one stone.
Bing Wuqing was not tempted, but it did not mean that the others were not tempted. Chu Tianlu was still fine. A truly loyal person would normally know how to repay kindness, especially since he also knew his own limits. Therefore, he was only surprised by the second Spirit Knowledge Fruit in front of him, but did not have any improper thoughts.
However, this was not the case for the other two, especially Bai Jingze. Before this, his entire mind was filled with thoughts of secretly keeping the Spirit Knowledge Fruit for himself. Now that his beautiful plan had been shattered, he could only settle for the next best thing. Although Lin Yi's life-saving grace could not be denied, this was a completely different matter.
As for Zhang Qingfeng, although he was now prepared to shed all pretense of cordiality with Bai Jingze, his stance on this matter was more or less the same. They had only discovered this Spirit Knowledge Fruit because of the smoke from their ancestors' graves. If Lin Yi really took it for himself and did not get a share of the Spirit Knowledge Fruit, he would definitely be extremely indignant and would definitely curse.
Without waiting for Lin Yi to speak, Bai Jingze could not wait to snatch the Spirit Knowledge Fruit. Zhang Qingfeng was not willing to fall behind either. It was unrealistic to keep it for himself, but as long as the first to obtain the Spirit Knowledge Fruit, Lin Yi would have to pay some price even if he asked for it, so they would not be left empty-handed.
"You guys …" Chu Tianlu opened his mouth, wanting to stop them, but he didn't know what to do- as far as he was concerned, the fruit should belong to Lin Yi alone. Bai Jingze and Zhang Qingfeng really didn't know what was good for them. They'd just been saved by Lin Yi, and they were still heavily injured. Why did they have to be so impatient?
Lin Yi was not surprised at all. From the first time he saw these two people, he already knew that they had bad intentions. Although birds of a feather flock together, Chu Tianlu obviously did not make the right friends. The two people's actions at this time only confirmed his view of people.
"Wait! Don't act rashly! "Lin Yi stopped them in a low voice.
Bai Jingze and Zhang Qingfeng's expressions suddenly became a bit unsightly, but in the end they did not lose their reason, and reluctantly stopped. They were only three steps away from the Spirit Knowledge Fruit. If they moved forward a little more, they would be able to obtain it. Unfortunately, they did not dare to.
After seeing the Thousand Wild Flame Fists just now, normal people would not have the thought of becoming enemies with Lin Yi, let alone the two of them who were quite seriously injured.
However, they still did not give up. Bai Jingze and Zhang Qingfeng looked at each other, temporarily putting aside their previous dirty thoughts. In the face of benefits, they once again stood on the same line.
"Brother Lin, you dealt with the black insects, and just now you also saved us. We will never forget this great kindness, but this is a different thing. Without us leading the way, you would not have found this Spirit Knowledge Fruit. According to the rules of Jianghu, you should at least give us some, right?" Bai Jingze said with a dissatisfied expression.
"You don't know what's good for you." Without waiting for Lin Yi to speak, Bing Wuqing directly used her Merciless Ice Force to freeze him into a human-shaped popsicle. She would never talk nonsense with such scum, and she had a belly full of anger from the black insects just now.
"Brother Bing, wait! Let's talk this out! " Chu Tianlu was shocked when he saw this, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop her. At the same time, he desperately winked at Bai Jingze and Zhang Qingfeng. It was not easy to beg Lin Yi to save these two friends. If they were killed because of this kind of thing, wouldn't it all be in vain?
Bing Wuqing ignored him. In her eyes, Chu Tianlu did not carry any weight at all. If he also did not know what was good for him, she did not mind killing him as well.
