Over there, while the two giant pythons were still fighting the giant beast, Feng Qinghuang and Rong Qi had already sat down and started eating. A moment of peace was an opportunity to replenish their energy, and they naturally wouldn't let this chance pass.
You could eat some pastries, fine, but to set up a small fire and roast meat over it is just too much! And before the aroma of the roasted meat even wafted out, Feng Qinghuang started sprinkling on her specially concocted seasoning. The aroma was simply irresistible, spreading for miles around.
Another voice rang out from the space: "Little girl, leave your roasted meat here, and I can make them all leave."
The aroma of the roasted meat awakened his cravings, which he hadn't tasted for centuries. Roasting meat inside this Trial Tower was truly a unique occurrence.
Feng Qinghuang ignored it and continued grilling the meat.
"Didn't you say you were going to sleep? Why are you awake again?"
The new voice rang out again: "Can't you tell, little girl, that I'm the tower spirit from before?"
Feng Qinghuang turned the grilled meat around: "Who knows what you guys are up to? One minute you're doing this, the next you're doing that. I can't be bothered with you."
The barbecue was ready. Feng Qinghuang shared some with Rong Qi, then with Xiao Tuanzi and Xiao Qi, keeping only a little for herself. She couldn't eat too much; if she had to cook later, eating too much would make her feel unwell.
The two people and two beasts were eating roasted meat, and the sound of drooling could be heard throughout the space.
The beasts that were fighting stopped and stared at them with their big, round eyes.
After Feng Qinghuang finished eating, she took out a handkerchief to wipe her hands. When the giant beasts saw her doing this, they refused to give her any more food, so she could only continue fighting.
Several giant beasts attempted to attack again, but just as they gained momentum, they were blasted away by a force, creating a tremendous roar in the air. Even the tower guards downstairs felt the entire tower sway a few times.
What are those two young people doing inside, making such a commotion? Are they planning to demolish the tower?
Inside, Feng Qinghuang stared intently at the little fox that had just made its move.
"You were the one who spoke just now, and you were the one who made the move?"
The little fox nodded: "Well, how about it, little girl? Hurry up and grill some meat for me, and I'll send you straight to the ninth floor."
Feng Qinghuang chuckled: "Hey little fox, don't think I'm afraid of you just because you can talk. With your little body, you think you can carry us up to the ninth floor? You're just bragging."
Seeing that Feng Qinghuang didn't believe what it said, the little fox prepared to raise its hand and send them away.
Rong Qi looked at the little fox warily: "Are you a real fox?"
The little fox, mimicking a human, smoothed its fur: "What, doesn't it look like me? What else could I be but a fox?"
Rong Qi looked at the pure white fox with no other colors and was a little puzzled. This guy only had one tail, but he could talk. Could it be that he had hidden the other tails?
Moreover, it's unclear whether this little fox is good or bad, and its exact cultivation level is also unknown, yet it was able to easily send those giant beasts flying. It seems we can't judge a book by its cover.
"Little fox, you just said you could take us directly to the ninth floor. What makes you think you can take us directly to the ninth floor?"
The white fox glanced at Rong Qi with her wicked eyes. This man was indeed strong, much taller than this little girl.
"Boy, you don't need to know who I am. All you need to know is that I'm in charge here. I'll take you up, and no one will dare to stop me. Besides, why are you worrying about all this? You're here to go to the ninth floor, right? Once you get to the ninth floor, you'll have completed the trial. Why are you worrying about so much?"
Rong Qi was about to say something when Feng Qinghuang tugged at his sleeve. The little fox was right; they came in to get to the ninth floor, who cared about their status?
"Little fox, are you telling the truth? If we grill meat for you, can you really take us to the ninth floor and get the token to pass through?"
The little fox nodded proudly.
Feng Qinghuang asked a soul-searching question: "Then why don't you just give us the pass tokens directly?"
The little fox choked...
It hadn't even intended to send them to the ninth floor; it just blurted it out in the heat of the moment. Looking at the two of them now, going to the ninth floor, while difficult, wasn't entirely impossible. That's why it said what it did. Since they could all get up anyway, it would minimize the losses to the Trial Tower and fill their stomachs for the next few hundred years—why not?
As for what those old men outside think, who cares! Anyway, I only promised them that I could come in for the trial, I didn't promise them that I would help them with the assessment or anything.
"Well, I just forgot about it. Besides, even if I get it for you, your names won't be on the Trial Tower after you leave, so you'll still have to get it yourself."
Feng Qinghuang understood. So that's how it is. No wonder. But it's forgivable. It's been here for who knows how many years; it's normal for it to want some meat.
Without hesitation, Feng Qinghuang took out some more meat and started grilling it.
