Gao Yuan was obviously extremely unwilling, but he did not dare to say anything else. He was afraid that Leng Yu would really be angry and not say another word.
Bringing the five of them, Xiao Yu continued to explore all over the mountain. After a long while, he found a strange red grass, which had a unique smell to it.
"What is this?" When Leng Yu saw this stalk of grass, he was puzzled and looked at Xiao Yu in confusion. He had searched the mountain for so long just for this single stalk of grass?
"This grass is called Aromatic Grass. If you bring it along, it will be useful to us." Xiao Yu smiled and kept the stalk of grass into the Realm-transforming Talisman, then let the five people lead the way and go back to retrieve the Red Nether Fruit.
Leng Yu and the rest were filled with doubt. Just by finding this stalk of grass, they were able to deal with that Level 2 Giant Serpent? That was a Odd Beast that was comparable to a Grandmaster, even if they worked together, they would still be unable to deal with it.
The thing he suspected the most was Gao Yuan. He was disdainful of Xiao Yu's method, but this time, he did not say much and only sneered. He wanted to see what kind of tricks this Mo Wang could come up with.
The five of them brought Xiao Yu along the original route back, and very quickly returned to where the Red Nether Fruit were.
It was something like a small tree. There was only a single vermilion fruit on the tree, and from afar, it looked extremely tempting.
Beside the small tree, there was a huge snake as thick as a bucket. Its body was scarlet red and its eyes were closed. A scarlet tongue was still spitting out of its mouth.
"Red Flame Snake?" Xiao Yu looked from afar, no wonder these five people had no other choice. This kind of Odd Beast was extremely ferocious, and also belonged to the level two Odd Beast.
Although the five of them were outstanding, in the end, they were only at Qi-transforming Stage. Even if the five of them worked together, it would be impossible to fight against this large snake.
"The Red Nether Fruit is right there. Tell me, how do you want to take it away?" Gao Yuan did not even bother to open his mouth, as he did not believe that Xiao Yu could rely on just a blade of grass to deal with this huge snake.
"All living things are at odds with each other. Even if this snake is a Odd Beast, it still has something to restrain it." Xiao Yu looked at Gao Yuan but did not explain. He said to Leng Yu: "Right now, I need two people, one to lure away this Red Flame Snake, and the other to take this opportunity to take away the Red Nether Fruit. You two understand each other better, so it's up to you two to decide."
"What?"
Hearing Xiao Yu's thought, everyone was shocked. Take away the Red Flame Snake? They had long since witnessed the terror of this huge snake. The last time the five of them had fought together, all they could do was barely escape.
Moreover, luring this giant snake away wasn't an easy thing to do. It could be lured just by words. How could it be lured away? And what was he supposed to use to attract it?
Red Flame Snake s are extremely sensitive to the smell of the Everlasting Herb. It hates this smell, and only if they smell it nearby would they be able to get rid of it. Therefore, you all only need to find one person to bring this herb to the other direction, and this huge snake will follow.
Xiao Yu was extremely familiar with the characteristics of these Odd Beast. Although he did not know what kind of Odd Beast was beside the Red Nether Fruit, he could roughly guess from hearing that it was a snake.
The Odd Beast that developed an interest in the spirit medicine Red Nether Fruit was also a type of snake, so it had to be this Red Flame Snake.
"This ?"
Although Xiao Yu gave the method, no one answered.
What a joke. Even if there was a way to lure the snake away, who would go? Who could guarantee that they would be able to return alive?
"I'll go." Seeing that no one replied, Leng Yu smiled slightly.
In the end, she was the one who had to obtain the Red Nether Fruit. At a time like this, it was naturally not good for her to ask others to take the risk.
"Senior Gao, at this time, do you have nothing to say?" Xiao Yu smiled as he looked at Gao Yuan. This Gao Yuan was trying to curry favor with Leng Yu with just a few words.
"I ?" Gao Yuan's face immediately became ugly, if Xiao Yu did not say anything after that question, then's impression of him would be greatly reduced.
However, even though he wanted to curry favor with Leng Yu, he had to do it in a safe situation, if he went to lure the Red Flame Snake, it would be a narrow escape, and if he died, even if he managed to curry favor with Leng Yu, what use would that be?
"There's no need to speak further, let me lure the Red Flame Snake. Elder Brother Mo, Senior Brother Gao, from now on, I would like to ask you to help me fetch the Red Nether Fruit. Leng Yu is extremely grateful." Leng Yu clenched her teeth, you could see that there was also fear in her heart, and she was not sure if she would be able to make it back alive.
However, even though she was afraid, she did not hesitate. This allowed Xiao Yu to overlook this woman.
"Elder Brother Mo, give me the herb." After Leng Yu made his decision, he stretched out his hand towards Xiao Yu, asking to leave the herb. In order to hide the scent, Xiao Yu had still placed the herb in the Talisman s but had not taken it out.
He really wanted to stand out and be a hero in front of Leng Yu at this time. Unfortunately, he didn't have the courage to do so, because he didn't want to die.2
"Forget it, it seems it's better if I go." Xiao Yu suddenly felt his heart soften. Originally, the Longquan Sect matter was not his fault, but seeing that Leng Yu still wanted to go despite knowing that he almost died, he could not bear to do so.
Forget it, the grudge he had with the Longquan Sect wasn't really related to these ordinary disciples either. There was no need to let such a dangerous woman die for her master's sake.
"Elder Brother Mo, you ?" Leng Yu was stunned, she could not believe it.
The few people by her side were all her good seniors and juniors. She knew that she had a good impression of this Gao Yuan, but at this time, no one was willing to take the risk for her. Although she didn't say it out loud, she still felt disappointed in her heart.
But this Mo Wang, whom they had only met by chance, was actually willing to take such a risk for her. Compared to the others in the same sect, this simple sentence had too much weight for someone who was extremely unfamiliar with him.
Among them, Gao Yuan had the ugliest expression. Even if he wanted to curry favor with Leng Yu, he wouldn't dare do such a risky thing, but Mo Wang actually dared!
When Mo Wang stepped forward, it also appeared that he was very weak and cowardly, which made him feel both ashamed and angry.
"Take advantage of the time I need to lure that snake away, and you can go get the fruit. There won't be too many people going, just one will do." Furthermore, Red Flame Snake like to leave its own poison as a mark on the thing it has its eyes on. When taking the fruit, you must clean the thing thoroughly, otherwise, it will catch up. "
"Remember every word I say. Otherwise, the consequences will be severe." After Xiao Yu finished speaking, he smiled slightly and quickly left without giving anyone else time to react.
