“Let’s search over there.”
Qian Jiyun held An Jiuyue’s hand and walked in another direction.
“Jiyun, don’t you think there’s an unusually large number of medicinal herbs here? I suspect somebody planted these herbs,” An Jiuyue remarked.
The place Qian Jiyun took her to was brimming with medicinal herbs. Even if these herbs were not planted by anyone, someone should know of their existence, right?
She had dug up numerous medicinal herbs at once. Would people criticize her if they came here next time and found no medicinal herbs?
“No.” Qian Jiyun shook his head. “You don’t have to be afraid. People don’t come here often to pick herbs. Anyone who does come here must be strong. Medicine refiners won’t come here.”
Puzzled, An Jiuyue asked, “Why?”
“The Black Pact Forest is over there.” Qian Jiyun pointed in a direction.
Her eyes widened as she looked into the distance. The trees there were crowded.
“Is it the Black Pact Forest you mentioned previously?”
Is that the Black Pact Forest, home to the Auspicious Cloud Sea-Devouring Python that so many people failed to kill and injure? No way! Why did we come here?
“Will that python come out again?” she asked worriedly.
Qian Jiyun was not sure. In fact, he had brought An Jiuyue here to also verify his suspicions.
“You don’t think so?” An Jiuyue was even more uncertain.
If he only said “think”, did that mean the python might come out?
“Qian Jiyun, the Auspicious Cloud Sea-Devouring Python won’t chase after us, right?” she asked.
“You’re thinking too much.” Qian Jiyun smiled.
Even if the Auspicious Cloud Sea-Devouring Python found them, they would have time to leave and would not be injured.
They had to engage the Auspicious Cloud Sea-Devouring Python in combat last time because it was on its way to his camp. He was sure they could get away from it now if they had to.
“Jiuyue, I’m sure you’ve heard that the python has a master.”
“I know that.” An Jiuyue nodded.
Besides refining medicine, she had heard the most about the Auspicious Cloud Sea-Devouring Python in the camp over the past few days. It was said that someone had subdued the python many years ago.
However, no one knew who subdued the Auspicious Cloud Sea-Devouring Python.
“I really don’t know what kind of capable person can subdue a python like that. I really want to meet them when I have the chance.”
“Haha.” Qian Jiyun chuckled and patted her head. “You know him.”
“I know him?” An Jiuyue pointed at herself and smiled.
She had only been at Huayan Peak for a few days and had only left Camp Zhan Yun a few times. How many people could she know?
Unless it was someone she had met in Daqing Kingdom? However, she did not know anyone else in Daqing Kingdom besides Qian Jiyun and the others. She did not know many people because she had been staying at Huayan Peak.
However… she thought of someone suddenly and stopped in her tracks.
“You mean my father? He subdued that python?” She was really shocked at the thought of this possibility.
Is this what I think it is? Did Father Tu really subdue and raise the Auspicious Cloud Sea-Devouring Python in the Black Pact Forest?
If that’s true, then Father Tu is really amazing!
