This was the first time everyone had seen Bei Gong Tang smile. In the past, she was always icy cold. This smile made people feel dazzled.
"Cough, cough." Wei Zi Qi was the first to regain his senses. Pretending to cough twice, he said, "Where is this Golden Snake Fruit? How long will it take to ripen? With so many people and spirit beasts eyeing it, should we come up with a countermeasure? "
When Wei Zi Qi said this, everyone's eyebrows furrowed. Just the thought of that divine beast was enough to give them a headache. On top of that, all the spirit beasts in the mountain range had been attracted over, as well as those who were eyeing them covetously. Without a plan, it would be very difficult for them to succeed.
"This Golden Snake Fruit still has seven days to mature. Let's first find the place and then check out the situation there. Let's think of a countermeasure later. "Sima Youyue said.
"But where is the Golden Snake Fruit? Which direction should we go? "Fatty Qu asked.
"I know the general direction. If we go to the inner region, it should be easy to find that place." Sima Youyue said.
"Since that's the case, let's go check out the situation first." Ouyang Fei said.
"Wait." Sima Youyue called out to them. Seeing that they had turned around to look at her, she said, "The Fire Wolf's corpse has always been with me. I'll give it to you now. If we're forced to separate, you can take it back to complete the mission."
As she spoke, she took out all the corpses of the Fire Wolves from her interspatial ring. She gave each of them a few corpses and put them into their own interspatial rings. Then, they began their journey.
Actually, Sima Youyue didn't know the way either, but with Mo Sha giving them directions, they just needed to hurry.
Three days later, they arrived at the inner area of the mountain range where the Golden Snake Fruit was located. Following the footprints left behind by those people, they arrived at a mountain.
The Golden Snake Fruit was in the middle of a cliff, more than a hundred meters above the ground. The other slopes in the other directions were filled with people, while the valley was occupied by countless spirit beasts.
Sima Youyue and the rest came to an empty space. They were shocked when they saw the situation around them.
"So many people and Spirit Beasts!" Wei Zi Qi sighed.
"You want to snatch the Golden Snake Fruit from the hands of so many people and spirit beasts …" Ouyang Fei didn't finish his sentence, but everyone understood what he meant. That was simply impossible.
"No matter what, I won't give up so easily." Bei Gong Tang clenched her fist and said.
"Is that the Golden Snake Fruit?" Fatty Qu pointed at the Golden Snake Fruit Tree in the middle of the cliff and asked.
"In such a high place, even if there is no one else, wanting to pluck this Golden Snake Fruit would not be easy!" Wei Zi Qi said.
"Although the cliff is high, it is not straight. There is a slope at the bottom." Sima Youyue said after observing for a while.
"But a normal person wouldn't be able to climb up. At least we won't be able to climb up. "Fatty Qu said.
"Right now, we can only see if we can take advantage of the chaos caused by the ripening of the Golden Snake Fruit." Ouyang Fei said, "Bei Gong, if it really doesn't work, you …"
"I understand." Bei Gong Tang nodded. If she really couldn't think of a way, she wouldn't force it. If he really lost his life because of this, then it really wasn't worth it. Moreover, she still had so many things waiting for her to do.
"I'm just afraid that taking advantage of the chaos won't be easy!" Sima Youyue rubbed her chin as she pondered, "Looks like we really have to think of a way."
"Youyue, look, isn't that the General?" Fatty Qu suddenly pointed at a tent and said.
Sima Youyue looked over and sure enough, Sima Lie had brought a few people from the General's Residence to set up camp on the hill opposite the Golden Snake Fruit.
"Why is Grandfather here?" Seeing Sima Lie observing from outside the tent, she immediately hid behind Fatty Qu and said to the others, "Anyway, there are still four days until the Golden Snake Fruit ripens. Let's leave this place first."
"That's good too. If we stay here, I'm afraid that we will become a stumbling block for those powers." Wei Zi Qi said.
Nobody knew why Sima Youyue didn't want to look for Sima Lie, but they really didn't have much use here, so they nodded and left together.
The five of them avoided the others and quietly went down the mountain. They came to the mountaintop beside and found a place to rest.
"Youyue, why did you run away when you saw the General and the others?" Fatty Qu only asked the question in his heart after sitting down.
"If Grandfather knew that we were here, he would definitely send people to bring us back. At that time, how would we be able to snatch the Golden Snake Fruit. "Sima Youyue said.
"In the remaining three days, we can properly investigate the surrounding environment." Wei Zi Qi said.
"That's good too. Right now, the Spirit Beasts' attention is all on the Golden Snake Fruit. The inner region is also much safer than usual." Bei Gong Tang said.
"Since that's the case, then we …" Sima Youyue hadn't finished speaking when her expression suddenly changed and she said, "You guys wait for me here. I'll leave for a while."
"Youyue, where are you going? Although the inner region is safer than usual, it's still very dangerous to be alone. "Fatty Qu said.
"Did something happen?" Wei Zi Qi asked.
"Little Roar just transmitted a message to me. It seems that he met with some trouble." Sima Youyue said anxiously.
Although Little Roar kept saying that he was an ancient Spirit Beast, he didn't have much battle strength now. If he were to fight with someone, it was unknown who would win.
Furthermore, if he didn't meet with any danger, he wouldn't have called her so anxiously. Thinking of this, her heart burned with anxiety and she couldn't wait to rush over.
"We'll go with you!" Bei Gong Tang said.
Sima Youyue looked at everyone and saw that they were determined not to let her leave alone. She nodded her head and said, "Ya Guang, bring us to find Little Roar."
Just as everyone was wondering who Ya Guang was, a majestic Iron Claw Tiger appeared in front of everyone.
"Master, quickly come up." Ya Guang also felt that Little Roar was in danger and turned into his original form as he spoke.
"It, it can talk. It's another Spirit Beast?" Looking at Ya Guang and then looking at Sima Youyue, everyone was extremely shocked. They didn't think that other than Little Roar, she actually had another Spirit Beast!
However, now wasn't the time to be shocked. Everyone quickly calmed themselves down and jumped onto Ya Guang's back. Ya Guang said, "Hold on tight." Then, he sped off.
They followed Little Roar's senses and advanced. After half an hour, they finally arrived at Little Roar's location. However, what they saw was not a battle between Spirit Beasts, but a small cage. Little Roar and a small bird were lying down with their eyes listlessly. Their heads were drooping. One look and they knew that something was wrong.
Ever since Little Roar woke up, Sima Youyue had never seen him so listless. Seeing him like this, her heart ached.
However, she was also vexed. Previously, she shouldn't have listened to Little Roar's words and allowed him to wander around the mountain. If not, he wouldn't have ended up like this.
As if sensing Sima Youyue's arrival, Little Roar who was lying in the cage suddenly looked towards the place where they were hiding.
Just as she was about to go save Little Roar, the two people who were drinking in the middle started to talk about the Spirit Beasts they had captured.
Sima Youyue didn't think that they would bump into a huge conspiracy on this trip!
