Chapter 125 Friendly Reminder

When Si Linglong heard what Helian Yue said, her eyes turned to the fruit in her hand and she suddenly fell silent.

[There is an immortal grass in Beiming Mountain. Its fruit is purple-green all over and grows between rock walls. It is called the immortal fruit.

If you eat it within three days of picking it, you can survive. 】

"This... should be the fruit of the Immortal Grass." Si Linglong said, "It is said that the fruit of the Immortal Grass has the effect of bringing the dead back to life."

Helian Yue's eyes dimmed when he heard this.

The legendary fruit that can bring the dead back to life?

How come he hasn't heard of it?

"I saw this by chance in an ancient book. I never thought it actually existed." Si Linglong seemed to have thought of something and reminded him warmly, "It can only bring back the dead, not make you immortal."

Helian Yue: ...

"Did I ask you?"

Why do I need to emphasize the latter sentence to him specifically?

Si Linglong just smiled obediently and said nothing.

[Don’t you emperors all like to pursue immortality? I’m just giving you a friendly reminder.]

Helian Yue snorted coldly.

"Don't worry, my beloved concubine. I will not covet your fruit, nor do I intend to achieve immortality."

Upon hearing this, Si Linglong hurriedly said, "I didn't say anything."

[The emperor said he didn't want to be immortal, just like Dongfang Bubai said she didn't want to unify the martial arts world. I just listen to it. ]

Helian Yue's mouth twitched.

I wanted to scold her directly for being insolent.

The emperor’s words are as good as gold. Does this woman understand that?

Just when he was feeling depressed, he heard Si Linglong silently supplementing her thoughts in her heart.

[Also, this fruit is not mine, it belongs to Master Cheng Huang. I am just keeping it for him.]

Helian Yue had heard her call the big fox "Lord Chenghuang", but he didn't have time to ask at that time. Now he didn't mind asking for clarification.

"My beloved concubine, can you tell me what happened to that fox?"

The more Helian thought about it, the more likely it was that it was a fox...right?

When Si Linglong heard him ask this, she couldn't help but blink, but she felt a little panicked.

[He asked, he asked, what should I do? Should I tell him that Master Cheng Huang is an ancient beast? Or forget it, this novel doesn’t have this setting.]

Helian Yue looked calm as a mountain, but he was shocked in his heart.

It turned out to be an ancient alien beast!

Why would such a divine object appear in Jiuzhu Mountain?

Why did Si Linglong recognize him?

"I don't know why the fox came to me. Maybe it just wanted to find someone to help it pick the fruit?"

Si Linglong finally decided not to say anything.

Helian Yue was used to her nonsense, so he ignored her answer and asked, "Since you took so much effort to help it pick this fruit, why did you disappear?"

When Si Linglong heard this, she answered directly, "Of course it was because there were so many people that it was scared."

[Although these ancient beasts sound awesome, they actually don’t like to show up in front of people. If it weren’t for its own inability, it probably wouldn’t have come looking for me…]

Helian Yue accepted this explanation reluctantly. After all, wild animals in the mountains have lived in seclusion since ancient times. There are very few wild foxes like Xuesai who are willing to get close to humans.

But what puzzled him even more now was.

Why does Si Linglong seem to know so much about this so-called ancient beast?

But she was deliberately hiding the truth, and I couldn't ask any more questions. I had to put the question aside for the time being and turn the question back to the fruit of the immortal herb.

"You just said that the fruit of the immortal grass will have miraculous effects within three days of being picked. The fox wants the fruit, so it will definitely come looking for you again in the next two days."

Si Linglong nodded in agreement, but was stunned the next second.

She looked at Helian Yue with a dazed look in her eyes and asked him, "Did I just say... that I will take it off within three days?"

Helian Yue was slightly startled, then he realized that he had confused the voice in her heart with the voice in reality.

Feng's eyes turned and looked at her boss Linglong with an obviously inquiring look.

Helian Yue fell silent.

So, now, how can he fool people?
