Chapter 66: The Mysterious Guy
Anyone who blocks her path to wealth should simply be silently killed in the Forest of Fireflies...
Ye Fei was contemplating killing them, and while she was still thinking about how to eliminate the two people in front of her, Ye Tong said contemptuously, "Brother, why did you choose to team up with someone whose strength you can't even gauge?"
Ye Minghui shook his head: "How can we possibly fathom the cultivation level of a powerful individual? Besides, this gentleman can use just a leaf as a weapon, so his strength is definitely not low."
"Tch, if he's so capable, why doesn't he show us his true colors?" Ye Tong sneered, glancing disdainfully at Ye Fei. "What a pretentious guy."
"Shh, keep your voice down..." Ye Minghui glared at her while whispering to coax her, secretly cursing Ye Tong for being brainless. Such powerful people almost always travel alone, so it would be a good thing to take this opportunity to make friends with them!
Ye Fei could hear the conversation between the two, raised her lips slightly, but said nothing.
Xie Qingui's impression of Ye Minghui and Ye Tong instantly plummeted. He didn't want to talk to them anymore and instead turned to Ye Fei and Li Yuan: "Lord Dongfang, Lord Wuming, we should set off."
Ye Fei nodded slightly and said indifferently, "Let's go."
Seeing that Ye Fei and the others were about to turn and leave, Ye Minghui called out anxiously, "Wait, you three!"
Xie Qin Gui turned around and asked with a slightly dissatisfied tone, "Young Master Ye, is there anything else?"
“Since the three of you are unwilling to team up with us, why don’t we set off together for the Forest of Fireflies?” Ye Minghui smiled kindly. “It’s quite a distance from here to the Forest of Fireflies. I can use my contracted beast to carry us there, which will greatly reduce the time.”
Xie Qingui could easily see through Ye Minghui's little scheme: "Going along the way is just an excuse; you really want us to protect you, don't you?"
Having been exposed in public, Ye Minghui was somewhat embarrassed and didn't know how to respond.
Ye Fei smiled silently; Xie Qin Gui was quite straightforward.
However, it doesn't seem like there's any harm in getting a free ride.
In any case, once they entered the Forest of Fireflies, it was questionable whether these two would even survive to return alive.
Ye Fei said lazily, "Since you're so kind, we'll reluctantly agree."
Ye Minghui's eyes lit up immediately: "Your Excellency, you've agreed to travel with us?"
Xie Qingui was somewhat puzzled: "...Lord Dongfang?"
Ye Fei raised her hand and patted Xie Qingui's thick arm. Facing Ye Minghui, she said, "I only agreed to go to the Firefly Forest with you. After entering the forest, we'll each rely on our own abilities. Since we've both accepted this high-level mission, whoever gets three Ice Crystal Fruits first will be considered to have completed the high-level mission."
"After completing the task, there will be no share of the reward." Ye Fei raised a slender finger, her tone indifferent: "Not even a tenth, understand?"
Ye Minghui couldn't help but swallow hard. Xie Qingui was already considered a very strong cultivator among the younger generation, and these two powerful figures whose faces were obscured by cloaks showed absolutely no sign of their strength... Wasn't this mission already destined to leave them without any reward?!
"You can choose not to agree, then we'll go our separate ways." Ye Fei casually crossed her arms, her tone lazy: "We can go by ourselves, we don't need your contracted beast."
Ye Minghui gritted his teeth. He and his sister weren't very strong. If they encountered any powerful cultivators or spirit beasts on the road, they would only face certain death.
But once they have the protection of these three people...
Ye Minghui immediately replied, "Okay, I agree!"
