Before Ming Xi could stop his body, the spiritual pet egg in his arms had already flown out by itself.
"Come back!" Ming Xi reached out to grab it, but was unable to.
"Don't bother with it." Fire Phoenix shouted, "It will come back to find you."
Ming Xi said, "What if it gets trampled flat?"
The spiritual pet egg was not much bigger than a chicken egg, so it would disappear with a single step.
"Wait for me here, I'll go find it." Ming Xi said in a low voice, and in a flash, he chased after the spiritual pet egg.
"Ming Xi!" Fire Phoenix shouted, but could only watch as Ming Xi and the spiritual pet egg disappeared into the mountain peak one after the other.
Really! Fire Phoenix stamped his feet, and could only follow. He had to stand guard, so that when someone came, he would be able to discover them early.
The spiritual pet egg seemed to have its own consciousness, and flew towards the place that was emitting the multicolored light. Ming Xi followed closely behind it, and felt that the clear fragrance in the air was getting thicker and thicker, and even the spiritual energy was concentrated here.
So there really was someone refining pills here!
In the cave, the pill refining furnace slightly vibrated, and the spiritual energy and fragrance overflowed from the pill furnace. The strange thing was, why wasn't there a single person?
The spiritual pet egg was right in front of the pill refining furnace, and the moment the pill was refined, it immediately jumped inside.
"You can't be a pig, right?" Ming Xi smiled bitterly.
There were three golden pills in the alchemy furnace, and the other seven pills were not so bright in color. However, just these three golden pills were enough to make people salivate.
When the spiritual pet egg jumped into the pill refining furnace, two small hands came out of the egg. There was only a mouth on the front, and even its eyes could not be seen.
If Ming Xi had not seen it eat before, he would have been scared by it.
"Don't randomly eat it!" Ming Xi warned in a low voice, "This thing's origin is unknown, if you really become a pig after eating it, I won't want you."
The spiritual pet egg turned a deaf ear to Ming Xi's words. With a crunching sound, it finished eating the seven dim colored pills. It gave birth to three golden pills that emitted a rich and clear fragrance. It no longer swallowed them in one gulp, but took small bites at a time.
"We should leave this place." Ming Xi shouted.
"Which little thief stole my pills!" A loud shout came from outside the cave.
Ming Xi was shocked, "Broken egg, don't eat anymore!"
Unfortunately, the spiritual pet egg was already completely intoxicated by the golden pill's taste. It looked like it was already drunk and did not hear Ming Xi's words at all.
"You must be a pig." Ming Xi called out in annoyance. Thinking about how he was going to raise a pig as a spiritual beast in the future, his mood was indescribably complicated.
Just as Ming Xi hid the spiritual pet egg in his bosom, a slender figure appeared at the entrance of the cave. He moved as fast as the wind and instantly arrived in front of the pill furnace.
The newcomer's hair was disheveled and his facial features could be considered handsome. However, when he saw that there were no more pills in the furnace, his eyes almost popped out and his expression became somewhat ferocious.
"My pill!" That person roared.
Ming Xi stealthily retreated. If only he could slip away without anyone noticing.
"You!" Just as Ming Xi's foot was about to step out of the cave, that person suddenly turned his head, his eyes red as he looked at Ming Xi, "You stole my pills!"
"No." Ming Xi immediately shook his head, "I didn't."
Crackle crackle —
A strange sound came out from Ming Xi's bosom.
"What is that thing?" That person approached Ming Xi. Realizing that Ming Xi was about to leave, a barrier had already appeared at the entrance of the cave. The cultivation that Ming Xi was so proud of was not even worth mentioning in the Upper God Continent. Even if he wanted to leave, he couldn't.
Ming Xi still wanted to protect the spiritual pet egg's little life, "No, you heard wrong."
"No one can play tricks in front of me." That person reached out and pulled Ming Xi over. With a flick of his finger, the spiritual pet egg floated out of Ming Xi's bosom.
The spiritual pet egg, which still didn't know what trouble it had caused, held the golden pill in its two small hands and happily munched on it. It completely didn't realize that it was about to become a fried egg.
"Spiritual pet egg?" That person raised his eyebrows, brought the spiritual pet egg to his nose and sniffed a few times, "A little thing that I've never seen before."
"You … Don't hurt it." Ming Xi cried out, worried that the person would crush the spiritual pet egg.
That person lowered his gaze and looked at Ming Xi's small face that was carved from jade, "Who are you? There has never been a child in the Upper God Continent, and you haven't transcended into holiness. Why are you here? "
"I'm lost, do you believe me?" Ming Xi laughed awkwardly. An Ge had told him that the Saint Emperor Mountain was inhabited by Saint Emperors. This person in front of him, could he be … a Saint Emperor?
"It doesn't matter who you are." That person muttered to himself, "This spiritual pet egg ate my pill, so I'll use it as a catalyst to refine another furnace. You can stay here and be my servant. I'll allow you to stay in the Saint Emperor Mountain."
Hearing that he was going to use the spiritual pet egg as a catalyst, Ming Xi immediately reached out to save the egg, "No, you can't use it as a catalyst."
"What's your name?" That person lightly threw Ming Xi towards the mountain wall.
Ming Xi seemed to be stuck in a spider's web, sticking to the mountain wall and unable to get down.
"My name is Mo Mingxi, isn't it just a few pills? The spiritual pet egg is hungry, and there's no one around, so how would we know that the pills are yours? "Ming Xi saw that he had already thrown the spiritual pet egg into the pill furnace, and shouted anxiously.
Yet, a certain egg that was on the verge of death returned to its original form after eating its fill. It was round and had no reaction at all.
"If you don't ask, you'll be treated as a thief." That person threw other ingredients into the pill furnace.
"You're not here, so who can we ask?" Ming Xi struggled with all his might, but was unable to get down from the mountain wall.
That person no longer cared about Ming Xi.
"Isn't it just a few pills, I'll give them back to you." Ming Xi shouted, "You can only refine three high grade golden pills in one furnace, my mother can refine five in one furnace."
"Brat, do you think that these are ordinary pills?" That person lightly laughed, "Your tone is really not small."
Ming Xi said, "Then tell me, what pill is this, and what's so great about it."
"Do you know how long it takes me to refine this furnace of pills?" That person raised his head and asked Ming Xi.
"I don't know." Ming Xi calmly said, "It's not like I know how to refine pills."
"This is a Cultivation Essence Golden Pill, I refined it a hundred times before it formed. Do you know who I am?" That person lightly asked.
Ming Xi shook his head, "I don't know."
"You said your surname is Mo, so who is Emperor Mo to you?" That person finally put down the ingredients in his hands, and let Ming Xi get down from the mountain wall.
"My father." Ming Xi said.
"Oh, then let your father redeem you." That person said, "By the way, let me introduce myself. My name is Hou Ze, and this is my territory."
Ming Xi had never heard of this name, "Let me go first, or else how am I going to tell my father."
Hou Ze placed his finger on Ming Xi's forehead.
So painful — Ming Xi instantly broke out in a cold sweat.
"Who are you, let go of my son!" Ye Zhen, who was looking for her son everywhere, appeared at the cave entrance.
Behind Ye Zhen was An Ge and Fire Phoenix, who looked horrified.
