"Go away, stop asking questions. Would I be wandering around here without some guarantee? I don't need those few low-grade spirit stones!"
Ji Fengyao quickly realized what was happening and put on a smug look.
Seeing He Xiaotou's appearance, the cultivator had no suspicion whatsoever, and walked away with an awkward smile.
Seeing this, the surrounding cultivators assumed that He Xiaotou really had some special mission, and they wisely refrained from approaching him.
Ji Fengyao raised her eyebrows slightly, pursed her lips, and stopped looking around, heading straight into the deeper part of the mine.
She needs to see just how much good stuff is hidden in this mine.
If the mining is almost finished, she will immediately make arrangements to take all the good stuff that the Dongdan family hasn't shipped to Yanjing yet!
If there are still many things in the mine, then she needs to make a long-term plan.
After all, Fengyue Continent is the home ground of the Zhou family and the Dongdan family.
She doesn't have the time or manpower to slowly mine here right now.
The deeper you go into the mine, the denser the demonic energy in the air becomes, and the fewer cultivators you can see.
After walking a little further in, there was no trace of the cultivators' activities, and the mine revealed its original appearance: it turned out to be a natural cave, but the section in front had lost its original appearance due to human mining.
The walls of the copper cave are indeed composed of zinc-iron ore, with a large number of natural earth flame crystals and high-purity magic crystals growing among them.
Looking at the intricate, maze-like cave passages before her, and feeling the intense demonic energy in the air that made her feel unbearable, Ji Fengyao thought to herself: The Dongdan family has truly discovered a treasure.
However, the demonic energy in this place cannot leak out, so ordinary cultivators may not be able to dig this far.
Unless, they bring in demonic cultivators.
The depths of the cave were a veritable den of demons. Having ascertained the situation, Ji Fengyao had no intention of going in again.
Just as she turned to leave, a soft, echoing voice suddenly came from the depths of the cave behind her:
“Yao Yao… Yao Yao, Yao… Yao… Yao…”
“Yao Yao… Yao Yao, Yao… Yao… Yao…”
Ji Fengyao frowned slightly and asked Ji Huo with her divine sense, "Ji Huo, can you hear me?"
The flames of the extreme fire flickered slightly, conveying to Ji Fengyao that it had heard the message.
"So, it wasn't my hallucination." Ji Fengyao stopped in her tracks, forcing herself not to turn back.
The flames of the extreme fire flickered slightly, conveying the message, "I don't know."
"Yao Yao... Yao... Yao... come here... come here... ah..."
"Come here...come here...ah...ah..."
Behind him, the calls grew clearer and more urgent.
Ji Fengyao suddenly felt an immense sense of intimacy with the voice, as if the owner of the voice was the closest person to her in the world, like her own mother.
"Go to hell!"
Ji Fengyao dug her fingernails into the soft flesh of her palms, rubbing them to make sure she wasn't unaware of the pain, and ran out of the cave at full speed.
She thought she must have inhaled too much demonic energy, causing her to hallucinate.
But extreme fire is something that is naturally generated by nature, so how could it also have hallucinations?
"Hey, He Xiao..." Seeing Ji Fengyao rush out, the cultivator who had chatted with her earlier originally wanted to inquire about things deeper inside the cave.
Ji Fengyao ran straight past him without even glancing at him.
