Bai Moyu tried several times to lure the Fire Serpent to Yun Chujiu’s side, but failed. He was afraid that he would attract the attention of others, so he had to give up temporarily.
Two hours later, they finally passed through the Fire Serpent’s area.
After walking for a while, the path ahead suddenly became clear. Several small holes appeared on the wall above their heads. Sunlight shone through the small holes, making the scene incredibly beautiful.
“Elder Xiao, why are there so many small holes on the wall?” an elder asked curiously.
Elder Xiao explained, “The nest of the Fire-breathing Eagles is on the wall. These small holes were pecked out by them over thousands of years.”
Yun Chujiu blinked her eyes. “Those Fire-breathing Eagles are probably sick. Do they have a bad habit of grinding their teeth while sleeping?”
The corner of Elder Xiao’s eyes twitched. “The reason why they pecked out these holes is that their eggs need a large amount of heat to hatch. They use the rising heat here to do that.”
Yun Chujiu curled her lips. “With such a high temperature, wouldn’t the babies turn into steamed eggs before it hatches!”
Elder Xiao glared at her fiercely. “The temperature ahead is increasing. With your spiritual power, it’s difficult to resist the high temperature inside. Moreover, the demonic beasts ahead are at least level five. You can’t deal with them either!
“Due to the presence of the Fire-breathing Eagles, those Fire Serpents won’t come here. Moreover, the environment here is special, so there won’t be any high-level demonic beasts. You guys just wait here.
“If we have not come out after three days, I’m afraid we’ve met our demise. You guys go back to the sect then! Liao Chuan, you’re the oldest here. You keep this flying spirit tool well. When the time comes, you’ll control this flying spirit tool and bring them back to the sect.”
Liao Chuan nodded in agreement. Elder Qu then set up a protective array around everyone before leaving.
Yun Chujiu took out a recliner from her storage ring and laid down happily on it. She then took out the storybook she had bought on the way and started reading.
When everyone saw the words on the cover, the corners of their mouths twitched slightly. Shockingly, the words they saw were “Me and My Three Thousand Beautiful Male Cultivation Furnaces” [1] were written on it!
“Yun Chujiu, you’re actually reading such a dirty book! You’re really shameless!” Bai Morou said in disdain.
“Junior Sister Bai, have you forgotten? She has always been like this. In the past, she pestered Senior Brother Bai and ran all over the city. A few days ago, I heard that she even seduced some Young Master Di. She really has no sense of shame!” Yun Chushan hated Yun Chujiu to death in her heart. What right did she have?! Clearly, a good-for-nothing was not only favored by the family head in the clan, but she actually became a true disciple in Spirit Radiance Sect. Were these people blind?!
Yun Chujiu shifted her gaze from the book to the two of them and said slowly, “Either you shut your mouths yourselves, or I’ll help you shut your mouths forever!”
Bai Morou was about to fly into a rage when Bai Moyu said coldly, “Morou, Junior Sister Yun, say no more! Everyone has their own judgment on what’s right and wrong! Just now at the Fire Serpent’s place, not only did Yun Chujiu not lend a hand, she even took away the Fire Serpent’s corpse. It could be said that she’s extremely selfish. There’s no need to argue with such a person.”
Yun Chujiu raised her eyebrows. “Who else has a problem with me? Do you think I’m selfish?”
Bai Moyu and the others immediately scolded Yun Chujiu for being selfish. Yun Chuqi and the others naturally had to protect Yun Chujiu and fiercely argued with her! Liao Chuan and the other two did not say anything. It was obvious that they did not want to participate in the dispute between the two factions.
“Enough! Stop arguing! Since you guys said I’m selfish, then I’ll be selfish! I originally planned to divide the serpents I collected equally with everyone. After all, these Fire Serpents are considered rare and precious. Since you guys are so selfless, then I won’t include you when I divide them! Without you guys, we can each get a little more!” Yun Chujiu said with a smile.
