"You guys can go back first. I want to stay in the mountain range for a few more days." Bei Gong Tang spoke first.
"Why, Bei Gong, are you not leaving with us?" Wei Zi Qi asked.
Bei Gong Tang looked in the direction of the inner regions and said, "I still have things to do. I won't be going with you guys."
"Bei Gong, this mountain is very dangerous. You're alone …" Fatty Qu said worriedly.
"I have something that I must do." Bei Gong Tang interrupted Fatty Qu.
Sima Youyue saw that Bei Gong Tang's attitude was firm, and guessed that she should also want to snatch the Golden Snake Fruit. From the looks of it, she must have had her reasons.
"You want to seize that treasure." Ouyang Fei said.
"Really?" Fatty Qu looked at Bei Gong Tang and asked.
Bei Gong Tang was stunned for a moment. She did not think that Ouyang Fei would be able to guess it so quickly. She nodded and said, "Yes."
"Bei Gong, yesterday we heard from the passersby that the treasure is in the inner regions. Let's not talk about how dangerous the inner regions are. During this period of time, many experts have come here. It's not like you don't know that if you want to snatch the treasure from their hands, you have to have the strength to do so." Wei Zi Qi said seriously.
"I know." Bei Gong Tang said, "But I must obtain that thing."
"Why?" Ouyang Fei asked.
Bei Gong Tang was silent for a while before saying, "I have my reasons. You guys go out first, don't wait for me. "
"No, if you don't tell us the reason, we won't let you go!" Wei Zi Qi said resolutely and decisively, "We are comrades who have fought together. We will not leave you alone, nor will we let you take the risk alone!"
"That's right, Bei Gong, we won't let you stay here alone." Fatty Qu agreed.
Bei Gong Tang was stunned when she heard this. She opened her mouth, but nothing came out.
Sima Youyue came to Bei Gong Tang's side and patted her shoulder, saying, "Is your contracted beast injured?"
"How did you know?" Bei Gong Tang was extremely shocked. This Sima Youyue was always able to tell her true thoughts.
"I guessed," Sima Youyue said.
"Bei Gong, is that really the case?" Fatty Qu asked.
Bei Gong Tang nodded, saying, "A few years ago, I met with danger. In order to save me, my contracted beast suffered a very serious injury. All these years, it has been in deep sleep to heal. A few days ago, he told me that if I could get that treasure, he could wake up. She fell into a deep sleep to save me. Now that I know there's something that can heal her, I won't give up. "
After she finished speaking, everyone else fell silent. Sima Youyue hugged her shoulder and said, "I wanted to see the treasure myself. Since that's the case, I'll go with you."
"You also want to go?" Wei Zi Qi and Fatty Qu called out at the same time. Even Ouyang Fei looked at the two of them in disagreement.
"That's right." Sima Youyue nodded. "I'll go with Beigong. You three can go first …"
"Don't tell us to go back first!" Fatty Qu said, "If you want to go, I'll go with you!"
Wei Zi Qi thought for a while and said, "Although I don't know what that thing is that it's so attractive to the two of you, since you want to go, count me in. One more person means one more strength. "
"I won't leave alone either." Ouyang Fei said.
"You guys …" Bei Gong Tang looked at Wei Zi Qi and the others. Seeing the smile on Sima Youyue's face, she suddenly felt her nose sour. That warm feeling in her heart had not appeared for a long, long time.
She always felt that she was not close to them, but she never thought that they would treat her like this.
"Alright, since everyone wants to go, the treasure won't just be for you." Sima Youyue said with a smile when she saw how touched Bei Gong Tang was.
"Mm, Youyue, what do you mean?" Fatty Qu asked.
"Since everyone has decided to go together, I'll explain the situation there to everyone. After I'm done, you guys can decide if you want to go or not." Sima Youyue said.
"Youyue, how did you know?"
"Don't ask me how I know, just listen to what I have to say." Sima Youyue said, "That treasure is the Golden Snake Fruit that rarely appears in this world."
"What kind of treasure is the Golden Snake Fruit?"
Ouyang Fei and Bei Gong Tang were shocked, while Fatty Qu and Wei Zi Qi were puzzled.
Although Bei Gong Tang knew that the treasure was not ordinary, she never thought that it would actually be the Golden Snake Fruit. No wonder Meng Ji would wake up and tell her this.
"The Golden Snake Fruit blossoms every seven hundred years, bears fruit every seven hundred years, and ripens every seven hundred years. If the Golden Snake Fruit is taken directly, it can raise a person's cultivation. The effect of refining it into a pill is even better, so it's a treasure that people and spirit beasts fight over. "Sima Youyue explained.
"Damn, it's so powerful!" Fatty Qu said in shock.
"That's why it attracted so many treasures!" Sima Youyue said, "But now is not the time to discuss the value of the Golden Snake Fruit. You guys also know that there will always be powerful spirit beasts by the side of treasures. This Golden Snake Fruit is protected by a spirit beast. "
"Spirit Beast!"
The other four sucked in a breath. This spirit beast was an existence comparable to a Spirit Paragon. If it was placed in the continent, it would be a peak existence. If they wanted to snatch the seven Golden Snake Fruits from the spirit beast's mouth, the difficulty could be imagined.
"Not only that." Sima Youyue continued to speak, "When this Golden Snake Fruit ripens, its fragrance will spread for thousands of miles, attracting all the spirit beasts nearby. Recently, we have rarely met any powerful spirit beasts. Because the Golden Snake Fruit is about to ripen, those spirit beasts have all gone to the inner regions. So other than that spirit beast, we may meet countless spirit beasts. "
"Hiss — —"
Everyone had already been shocked speechless by her words.
"Also …" Sima Youyue looked at their expressions and wanted to tell them if what she said was correct.
"Also, there are those experts who have come to the mountain in the past month, right?" Ouyang Fei said.
Sima Youyue nodded her head. They had been in the mountain for half a month and had seen many powers go to the inner regions. She did not need to say this, everyone understood.
"Oh my god, this battle formation is too scary!" Fatty Qu found his voice after a long time and sighed.
"So you have to consider carefully whether you want to go or not." Sima Youyue said, "Bei Gong and I have our reasons for not going, but you don't have to take the risk. After all, although that thing is good, it is also very dangerous. "
Hearing her words, Wei Zi Qi and the others were silent for a while before saying seriously, "Since it's so dangerous, wouldn't it be more dangerous for you to go alone? Let's go together and take a look. If it's really impossible, don't force it! "
"I promised Young Master You Le that I would take good care of you. If you don't go back, how can I go back?" Fatty Qu said.
"I'm interested in that treasure." Ouyang Fei said.
Bei Gong Tang sniffled and suppressed her emotions. She looked at them and said, "No matter what the result is, Bei Gong will never forget your friendship!"
"I want to go myself, so you don't have to count me in." Sima Youyue said as she shrugged her shoulders.
Seeing her shameless expression, Bei Gong Tang smiled happily for the first time.
