Su Qing reflected on his actions. Of course, if he wanted to run away, he could; he could simply fly away.
But he still chose to kill this beautiful flower!
When you come to the place where the flowers have withered, there is a seed.
Hold the seed in your palm and your wealth will increase by 50,000.
Meanwhile, a new item has appeared in the wealth statistics: Beauty Flower from Hell!
As expected, it was this thing. Su Qing wasn't too surprised. He had just been preparing to run away when he saw this flower, and some memories in his bloodline were activated, including information about this flower.
It seems that one of the ancestors of this body had seen this flower and was deeply impressed, so the information about this flower was left in the bloodline.
The beauty flower feeds on the desires of the human heart, growing rapidly and becoming stronger the more desires it absorbs.
It's a very fantastical thing.
What's even more terrifying is that this flower has a very high potential. If it is allowed to grow unchecked, it may eventually possess the ability to devour the Knight King.
They found a wooden box in the ruins and carefully put the seeds away.
Although it seems useless, at least it's valuable.
In the distance, Chris approached, followed by a tiger and a bear, both looking like survivors of a disaster.
The battle hadn't lasted long, only about half an hour, but it had almost destroyed the entire village. Some villagers had fled, while others had died, leaving the village desolate.
"Let's go!"
Su Qing weakly waved her hand, and the winged tiger quickly ran over. Su Qing flipped onto the tiger and lay on its back, looking utterly exhausted.
Are you alright?
Chris was a little worried.
"It's nothing serious, but I might not even be able to beat you now. If you want to escape, I might not be able to stop you!"
Su Qing spoke earnestly, which made Chris suspicious.
Is this guy telling the truth or not?
Why does it seem so unbelievable?
However, he hadn't originally planned to run, because he felt that if he did, the tiger and the bear might be able to take him down.
Su Qing put her black cloak back on, ready to set off, when she suddenly remembered something: "Aren't you going to collect the corpse of your lost love?"
Chris didn't react at first, but after a moment, he understood what the dragon meant.
Seemingly feeling that his first love truly deserved a proper commemoration, he went and dug a hole for the girl, burying her withered body there.
Taking advantage of this time, Su Qing drove the tiger around the village. There were still many remnants of the bougainvillea vines, with some small flowers scattered on them.
Su Qing collected them; they should also be considered magical materials, and the system estimated their value at over ten gold coins each.
All together, it's a valuable asset, adding several thousand more wealth points.
On the contrary, the vines, though huge, were of low value and there was no need to take them.
Once he was sure there were no other small flowers left, he burned the vines completely.
Chris had already buried the girl, and the group continued on their way. The tiger and bear weren't particularly moved, but they were startled by the sudden spread of the vines.
Su Qing felt that although she had paid a price, it was worth it overall. With the addition of more than 50,000 in wealth, she could unlock a new skill if she could gather a little more!
However, he suddenly realized that his idea was somewhat dangerous. He was not collecting wealth just to unlock skills; the improvement of power was the essence, and skills were just auxiliary. He could not put the cart before the horse.
Of course, if it's a good skill, Su Qing wouldn't mind unlocking it early.
Chris was saddened by the loss of his love, and the image of that beautiful girl would often appear in his mind, lingering there.
She was so beautiful; he had never seen such a pretty girl in his entire life.
"Think of the good side!"
Su Qing comforted him, "Maybe your blind date is really ugly!"
Chris remained silent. If he didn't feel that the dragon was trying to provoke him into attacking it and then attacking him in return, he would have definitely fought the dragon to the death.
They bought some food in town, all of it the cheapest black bread. Even so, Su Qing felt a pang of heartache watching Chris pay for it.
I wanted to rob this bakery; how dare they take my money? It's outrageous!
After leaving the town, they continued on their journey without encountering any further troubles. Occasionally, they would run into one or two groups of bandits, but Chris, still heartbroken, was ruthless and killed them all.
After entering the Principality of Gri, in a small town some distance from the kingdom, they unexpectedly met with the caravan.
"Young Master, I was so worried about you sneaking away! Where did you go? You've been gone for so long... What happened to you?"
The well-dressed old butler, Frans, looked at the much more haggard Chris with surprise, and then became alert when he noticed the black-cloaked figure following behind Chris.
"Young Master, who is he?"
"My sworn brother!"
Chris hesitated for a moment, but still introduced it this way.
Frans was surprised, wondering what his young master had gone through during his disappearance and how he had suddenly gained a sworn brother. However, since his young master had said so, he naturally had to treat him politely: "Hello!"
Su Qing nodded politely, "Hello to you too!"
"Alright, old Frans, you take good care of him for me. I'm going to go and rest for a bit."
Returning to his own caravan was like returning home. Chris relaxed, feeling the fatigue creeping into his body. He waved his hand, preparing to go and rest.
