"Bro, you guys are here too! That's good, that's good!"
When Little Fatty caught sight of Su Zimo and the others, his eyes lit up and he ran over hurriedly. His loose robes could not conceal his jiggling fats no matter what.
The six of them were naturally delighted that they managed to arrive here safely without any mishaps.
Feng Manman cupped her fists. "Chigurumon won't be taking anything from the Elixir Refinement Hall. Let's head in and see if there are any ancient talisman books that have been preserved."
"Yes,"
Tang Yu nodded.
Leng Rou bade farewell to Su Zimo and the others.
There were not many cultivators from Tomb Sect and Puppet Sect that entered the valley to begin with and now, there were only a handful of them left.
Little Fatty and Shi Jian left with the leaders of their respective sects to enter the ruins in search of treasures and opportunities as well.
Right then, a dark figure flashed not far away. Like a phantom, it arrived beside Su Zimo silently without attracting anyone's attention!
Night Spirit had returned!
Night Spirit held something bloody in his mouth that resembled a meatball with a foul stench.
Su Zimo glanced at it casually and did not pay much attention to it initially.
However, immediately after, Su Zimo seemed to have thought of something as he turned around and his eyelids twitched!
It was the Zhu Yan's head!
Its neck was clearly torn apart by sharp claws and one of its eyes was blinded. Night Spirit bit down on the severed neck and brought it back just like that!
"Eh? Isn't that Night Spirit?"
Tang Yu caught a whiff of the blood stench and turned around to see Night Spirit standing beside Su Zimo with something bloody in his mouth.
"Yes,"
Su Zimo replied without saying anything else.
Tang Yu frowned slightly.
Suddenly, she felt that something was amiss.
Night Spirit seemed to have disappeared for a period of time right after the Zhu Yan appeared …
However, at that time, everyone's attention was attracted by the Zhu Yan and they were all trying their best to escape – no one noticed if Night Spirit was following them.
Tang Yu couldn't remember.
No matter how hard she tried to recall, the existence of Night Spirit during that period of time was a blank. It was as if he had disappeared into thin air.
Tang Yu asked hesitantly, "Fellow Daoist Su, has Night Spirit always been with us?"
"Yeah, I've been following you."
Su Zimo nodded with a calm expression.
"What's that?"
Tang Yu pointed at the lump of blood in Night Spirit's mouth and asked curiously.
Su Zimo replied ambiguously, "I don't know either. I reckon that it bit off some random ancient remnant beast's corpse on the way here."
Now, Zhuyan's face was beyond recognition. It was a bloody mess and its head was dyed red with blood. How could Tang Yu recognize it?
Tang Yu asked a few more questions, but she was even more confused.
After pondering for a while, he still couldn't think of a reason, so he put the matter aside for the time being.
After Tang Yu left, Su Zimo turned to look at Night Spirit and asked in a low voice, "Why did you bring that head back? Why don't you finish it outside? "
"Oo! Oo!"
Night Spirit put down the Zhuyan's head and extended his claws, pointing at it before pointing at Su Zimo.
If anyone else saw this, they would definitely not understand what Night Spirit meant.
However, Su Zimo understood and asked with a frown, "You're saying that this thing is for me to eat?"
Night Spirit nodded and licked his lips again. By the looks of it, he was still reluctant to part with it.
Su Zimo smiled and shook his head. "Go ahead and eat it. You haven't eaten anything good all these years."
Although Su Zimo had once tasted raw meat and blood in Cang Lang Mountain Range for the sake of his demonic cultivation, he was still a human.
Su Zimo truly lost his appetite at the sight of that bloody head.
When Night Spirit saw that Su Zimo was not eating, he rubbed his head against the latter again. Thereafter, he extended a claw and gently pierced a hole in the head of the Zhuyan.
After a while, a milky-white viscous liquid began to flow out of the hole. It emitted a rich fragrance that whetted one's appetite!
"This is …"
Su Zimo blinked and vaguely thought of something.
The Zhuyan's brain!
In the ancient books of Misty Peak, there was a sentence written at the end of the Zhuyan chapter.
An ancient mighty figure ate its brain and praised, "It's fragrant in the mouth and has an endless aftertaste!"
The fact that an ancient mighty figure would give such an evaluation was proof of the deliciousness of the Zhuyan's brain.
Night Spirit stuck out its tongue and licked clean the brain matter that had spilled out, revealing an intoxicated expression.
A moment later, Night Spirit lifted the Zhuyan's head and handed it to Su Zimo, indicating for him to just suck at the hole.
Night Spirit was becoming more and more human-like and was clearly at the peak of Foundation Establishment realm. It could condense an Inner Core at any moment and transform into a human form!
Su Zimo felt a warmth in his heart. However, he still shook his head and smiled. "You can have it. I'm not used to eating this."
Night Spirit was doubtful and tilted his head to look at Su Zimo with a confused expression.
He did not seem to understand how anyone could dislike such a delicacy in the world.
When he saw that Su Zimo was truly indifferent, Night Spirit lifted the Zhuyan's head and sucked at the hole in the head. Gulp! Gulp! In a few mouthfuls, the Zhuyan's brain was sucked clean!
After he was done, Night Spirit licked his lips as though he had not had enough.
"Woo! Woo!"
Night Spirit cried out again and swayed his tail, circling to Su Zimo agilely.
Su Zimo focused his gaze. On the spike at the end of the tail, there was an egg-shaped object the size of a fist. It was emerald green in color and contained emerald green juice.
"This is … the gallbladder of the Hook Snake?"
Su Zimo pondered for a moment and probed.
Night Spirit nodded and handed the gallbladder to Su Zimo, indicating for him to eat it.
If the Zhuyan's brain was a rare delicacy in the world, then the gallbladder of the Hook Snake was a rare medicinal herb!
A drop of the gallbladder of the Hook Snake was enough for an ordinary person to be healthy for a hundred years.
After a cultivator swallowed it, their poison resistance would increase tremendously and they would be able to resist most poisons!
Su Zimo rubbed Night Spirit's head and said softly, "Night Spirit, you can have it. I'm almost immune to all poisons now. I don't need this."
Night Spirit fell silent.
A moment later, Night Spirit's eyes lit up. Suddenly, he raised his head in Xiaoning's direction and cried out.
"Do you mean to give the gallbladder to Xiaoning?" Su Zimo asked.
Night Spirit nodded and gestured a few times.
Su Zimo understood what he meant.
Night Spirit was saying that he had failed to protect Xiaoning when she was poisoned previously. This gallbladder was his apology gift to Xiaoning. After eating the gallbladder, Xiaoning would not have to worry about being poisoned in the future.
Su Zimo fell silent.
Be it the Zhuyan's brain or the Hook Snake's gallbladder, these two items were the most precious items of the Zhuyan and the Hook Snake!
After Night Spirit took it out, he did not think of himself but of Su Zimo and Xiaoning.
He wanted to share the delicacy with Su Zimo and help Xiaoning improve her body.
Night Spirit would only do such a thing if he saw Su Zimo and Xiaoning as the closest people to him!
Su Zimo went forward and hugged Night Spirit's neck, patting its back and saying softly, "Night Spirit, thank you."
