Liu Qian was shocked and felt uncertain. He said with a smile, “Young hero Shi, what a coincidence. I didn’t expect to see you again.”
Yun Chujiu said indifferently, “Well, it’s indeed quite a coincidence. However, didn’t you go east?”
“To be honest, we went around the ice lake. How did you two get here?” Liu Qian stared at Yun Chujiu, not showing any change in his expression.
“It’s very simple. We swam here! Why did you have to go so far? It would be more convenient to swim here directly!” Yun Chujiu said nonchalantly.
Liu Qian was stunned. “Young hero Shi, you didn’t encounter any powerful aquatic demonic beasts?”
“We didn’t. We only encountered a few Tier Four Iron-bone Crocodiles. They saw us avoiding them, and we swiftly swam over. Sect Leader Liu, from what you said, it seems like there are powerful aquatic demonic beasts in there? How powerful are they? Are they Tier Eight or Tier Nine?” Yun Chujiu revealed a shocked expression.
“I’ve only heard about it. Since you guys didn’t run into them, then the rumors must be wrong! I won’t disturb your meal any longer. We’ll also find a place to rest.” Liu Qian saw that Yun Chujiu’s expression did not seem to be fake. He thought to himself, ‘Could it be that these two idiots were so lucky? So they didn’t meet the Scarlet Poison Frog? It truly is a fool’s fate!’
Yun Chujiu nodded. “Emhmm, you can’t believe the rumors. Sect Leader Liu, please go ahead.”
Liu Qian and his men also lit a bonfire not far away and began to prepare to eat and rest.
“Sect Leader, those two kids are really lucky. They actually didn’t meet the Scarlet Poison Frog! Since they’ve presented themselves to us, do you want to send them on their way tonight?” Zhang Biao thought of the last barbecue incident, and his eyes revealed a look of hatred.
Liu Qian shook his head, “No rush! If they’re not going in the same direction as us tomorrow, we should just ignore them to avoid any complications. If they linger around, we can only kill them! We can prevent the news of us getting the treasure from leaking out.”
Although Zhang Biao was indignant, he did not dare to disobey Liu Qian’s words. He could only start preparing dinner.
On the other side, Yun Chujiu and An Feng were also discussing their next step. “Young Master, it seems like the Goshawk Sect is looking for treasures in this direction. Should we go back or continue moving forward?”
“Of course we should continue moving forward. This Chimeric Icefield isn’t a part of Goshawk Sect. If they know what’s good for them, then we won’t interfere with each other. If they want to court death, then I don’t mind sending them on a journey,” Yun Chujiu said indifferently. After these few days of trials, she had more confidence in her combat skills. Moreover, there were two Earth-shattering Ice Bears in her Spirit Beast Pouch.
An Feng nodded. Even if there was a conflict, those people were nothing to be afraid of.
The next day, Yun Chujiu and An Feng continued to walk toward the west according to their original plan. Yun Chujiu muttered as she walked, “Damn it! It’s all the fault of those people from the Goshawk Sect. Otherwise, I would have let Big Bear carry me on his back.”
An Feng’s eyes twitched. ‘It was you who wanted to pretend to be a pig to eat a tiger, alright! If you were willing, you could’ve gotten Big Bear and Bear Two out.’
Behind them, Liu Qian took out a sheepskin scroll map and looked at it. Then, he frowned. These two people were walking in the same direction as where they were going. Could it be that they had a treasure map in their hands? That was impossible. When that person gave him the map, he said that it was the only one. Could it be a coincidence?
