Fang Fang was completely stunned, she looked at everything in front of her in disbelief. Even Lonemoon and Yi Qing's eyes flashed with surprise, there were actually all demon beasts and spirit herbs here. In this world without Spirit Qi, where did they come from?
"How is it, how's my Rare Beast Garden?" The City Lord said with some intention of showing off.
"It really leaves a deep impression." Lonemoon replied politely.
"These are just some small things." He continued, "Follow me inside!"
With that said, he continued to walk forward, the deeper they went, the more things they saw around them. Lonemoon looked carefully, even the surrounding spirit herbs, from the original first and second level, there were already fourth and fifth level ones appearing at the back, they could be considered as mid-level spirit herbs, but he still couldn't sense any bright aura of Spirit Qi.
Lonemoon suppressed the surprise in his heart, followed the City Lord all the way into a cave. There were no more spirit herbs in the surroundings, the cave was no longer dark, the stone walls at the side were covered with small colorless flowers, the flowers were transparent, but emitted a faint white light.
Fang Fang seemed to have never seen such a strange flower, she subconsciously reached out and touched the left side, in the next moment, a terrifying beast roar came from the stone wall, something rushed out from the stone wall, opened its mouth and bit towards her.
Fortunately, Shen Ying, who was next to her, reached out and pulled her, thus she managed to avoid it. Fang Fang was startled, her face instantly turned as pale as snow, she panted heavily, half of her body fell limply onto Shen Ying, looking like she was quite frightened.
"Hahaha, I forgot to remind everyone, there is a stone beast living in this stone wall, it has a bad temper, this flower is his favorite, you can't touch it." The City Lord reminded without much sincerity, then continued to walk forward.
Fang Fang's face was so scared that there was no trace of blood on her face, Shen Ying held her up, then stood up with a face still full of shock, after a while she said softly, "Thank you."
Shen Ying turned back to look at her in surprise, crunched a bite of the fruit, then nodded and responded, "Mm."
The group headed straight into the cave. After a while, the surroundings suddenly heated up. The City Lord stopped in front of a huge metal door and introduced with even more excitement. "This is the most unique beast in my Precious Beasts Garden. Even I, the City Lord, don't know what it is. It took a lot of effort to catch him. "
After saying that, he activated the mechanism at the side. Immediately, a wave of hot air rushed over. There was another iron fence inside, and through the gap in the middle, they could see raging flames everywhere. And in the middle of the raging flames, there was a giant beast that was as tall as three people lying inside.
This was … a seventh grade flame beast!
Lonemoon hurriedly turned to look at Yi Qing. Seeing him nod, he hid the shock in his eyes. There was a seventh-rank demonic beast but no Spiritual Qi. Interesting!
"How is it?" The City Lord looked at them again and said, "I was even able to capture such a monster, which shows the power of my city. Have you changed your mind and decided to stay and work for me?"
"The City Lord is naturally powerful and rich enough to rival a country." Lonemoon smiled and said, "But we really don't want to stay here. It's not convenient for us to stay in the city for long. We can only let down your good intentions. "
The City Lord's expression darkened even more. A guard at the side spoke up directly. "You actually don't know how to appreciate favors! It's really too … "
Before he could finish, the City Lord raised his hand to stop him. His eyes darkened as he smiled and said, "Alright, since you don't want to stay, then I won't force you. You can leave."
"Thank you, City Lord!" Lonemoon gave Chef a look and turned to walk out. But the City Lord and that guard behind did not follow, as if they really intended to watch them leave.
But they had only taken a few steps when they suddenly heard a cracking sound. Their feet suddenly sank and the originally flat road disappeared directly. The four of them fell down together. They could still faintly hear the curses of a certain City Lord from above.
"Unappreciative things, serves you right to become food in the mouth of a monster!"
Among the four, the most panicked one was not Fang Fang. She screamed directly. Lonemoon and Yi Qing were long prepared. Chef directly turned and hugged Shen Ying who was beside him. Lonemoon also grabbed Fang Fang who had a look of horror on her face.
They landed on the ground in a few leaps. The sound of water splashing could be heard beside their ears.
Lonemoon directly took out a pearl and shook it. Their surroundings lit up instantly. Only then did they see clearly that they were standing on a protruding rock. Below them was an underground river a few meters wide. In the river, hideous-looking strange fish jumped out of the water from time to time, revealing their mouths full of sharp teeth.
Fang Fang's expression was even uglier. She instantly broke free from Lonemoon's hand and hid behind Shen Ying as if she was used to it. "What … What is this place?"
The few of them did not answer. Instead, Yi Qing looked at her tightly holding onto his Master's hand. He frowned and pointed to the right after a while. "Father Niu, over there!"
"Wh … What over there?" Fang Fang's face was still full of horror and confusion. "Why did the City Lord suddenly lock us up here?"
"He didn't want us to live in the first place." Lonemoon explained casually. "He probably didn't want outsiders to know about the merpeople he obtained. So those of us who know, either become his people or become dead people who can't speak! "
Fang Fang's eyes widened abruptly. Her face was full of disbelief. She didn't seem to think that the dignified City Lord would do such a despicable thing. Lonemoon had long guessed that the City Lord was not a good person. Otherwise, why would that shop owner open a shady shop in the city so brazenly.
The reason why they came over here was because he had looked around the entire city yesterday. Only the City Lord's Abode had not been searched. So he just went with the flow and came to take a look. But he didn't expect that there would really be a discovery. A place without Spirit Qi would actually grow spirit herbs and high-level demon beasts. This was really too strange. In addition, when they saw that seventh-level demon beast just now, he and Chef felt a trace of Spirit Qi at the same time.
Originally, it was not impossible to take advantage of the situation and pretend to agree to the City Lord's enlistment. But it was too troublesome. Not only was it a waste of time, they also couldn't investigate openly. They might as well just fall out with him.
But they didn't expect that this trace of Spirit Qi would coincidentally appear in this underground river. It was a pleasant surprise. It was a pity that the Spirit Qi was too weak. In addition, this place was strange. Their spells couldn't be used. Naturally, they didn't have to use their divine perception to investigate. It was very troublesome.
But as long as they could find the source of that trace of Spirit Qi, they would probably be able to find out what exactly was going on in this place. However, this woman called Fang Fang … was going to suffer an unexpected calamity.
"Master, let's go!" Yi Qing said and directly carried Shen Ying. With a few leaps, he used the protruding rocks on both sides of the underground river to move forward along the direction of that underground river.
