"Sir, how did you know I was reading..." Zhou Binghai had just finished saying this when he quickly covered his mouth. Shit! When did you find out? When did you find out that the cover of the book was a history of various nations, but inside was actually a collection of various story books. Thinking of this, Zhou Binghai hurriedly explained, "Sir, that's not a pornographic book, it's a collection of story books, stories about talented men and beautiful women."
"It's all the same." Ye Lanxuan waved him away, "Read less from now on and continue to pay attention to Han Yan's news."
"Yes, yes." Zhou Binghai retreated with a constipated expression.
Ye Lanxuan sat alone in the yard, lowering his head and staring quietly at the jade pendant in his hand, wondering what he was thinking.
…
Far away in the Valley of Exotic Beasts, Mu Hanyan had no idea Ye Lanxun was reminiscing about her. She continued her journey deeper into the valley. The terrain was complex, offering more hiding places and posing even more dangers. In less than an hour, she encountered a Wind Blade Cloud Leopard, a One-Horned Green Python, and even a venomous scorpion the size of a bowl. However, with her tenth-rank greatswordsman prowess, she easily dispatched them all.
Wu Qiyun had completely relaxed by now. Whenever he encountered danger, he acted like Mu Cheng, not even bothering to draw his sword. He simply followed behind, staring at Mu Hanyan eagerly. Even more outrageous than Mu Cheng was that this guy was watching the fun while munching on his rations, practically bringing out a small stool to watch.
Mu Hanyan was a little worried. If this continued, she would have two big fat pigs after the trial.
However, she did not force it. The strange beasts she encountered along the way were indeed a little stronger, and they appeared and disappeared unexpectedly, making it difficult to guard against them. If she really forced them to take action, it would probably be very dangerous.
"Hey, what is that!" Mu Cheng drew out his sword and searched the poisonous scorpion, but still couldn't find the beast blood bead. He couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. He looked around randomly, and suddenly his eyes lit up and he ran forward.
Pushing aside a bush not far ahead, a broken sword with a large bloodstain appeared before his eyes, along with a few scattered bags beside it.
"What's going on?" Mu Cheng said in surprise.
"They are from the Hao family in Nanxi County." Wu Qiyun looked at the family logo on the luggage and said with a frown.
"It looks like he was quite frightened. He didn't even want these good things." Mu Cheng opened the packages without any hesitation. In addition to dry food and medicine, he also found some medicinal herbs and some pieces of gravel emitting strange light. It was obvious that they were unusual.
In addition to gold, silver, copper and iron, the Holy Court Continent also produces meteoric gold ores, which contain rare metals said to be from outer space. They are indispensable raw materials for alchemy, so they are very valuable. It is no exaggeration to say that some of the top rare meteoric golds are priceless.
Although Mu Hanyan and his companions found several high-quality medicinal herbs on the way, their value could not be compared with these meteorite gold ores.
These people from the Hao family were so scared that they didn't even want the meteorite gold ore, which was enough to show how urgent the situation was at that time.
"Maybe he's not frightened, but has encountered an accident." Wu Qiyun said in a deep voice, his eyes looking at the bushes beside him.
Mu Cheng followed his gaze, his scalp suddenly numb, and a chill ran down his spine. Hidden in the bushes were a few gnawed bones, scattered with scraps of flesh. Without even a second thought, it was clear they were human hand bones.
