Chapter 39 - Capturing a Mutation (2)
Although Rong Chu took the antidote, it seemed like he had not finished detoxifying the poison, and his chest still hurt a little. Originally, he had wanted to send Mu Wanjun back the entire time, but his current situation probably wouldn't allow it. Right now, he should continue to find a secluded place to expel the remaining poison from his body.
He thought about it and repeatedly instructed her before he bade farewell to Mu Wanjun.
Before leaving, Mu Wanjun thought of something. She waved the Storage Ring in her hands and said to Rong Chu: "That's right, when you go back and see Housekeeper Jin, thank him for the things he prepared for me."
After she finished speaking, she pulled Si Tu and ran into the forest.
Once Mu Wanjun left, Rong Chu's expression changed slightly as he looked at the other Storage Ring on his finger. This was what Steward Jin had asked him to bring to her. He hadn't had a chance to give it to her yet.
No one would have thought that the students participating in the Kunlun College selection would all have to wear the same clothes. It took him a lot of effort to finally find Mu Wanjun when she appeared.
Then who pretended to be Housekeeper Jin to prepare things for her?
Just as he was about to tell Mu Wanjun something was wrong with this matter, he saw that she had already escaped without a trace.
With a question lingering in his mind, Rong Chu thought that he had to force the remaining poison out of her body as soon as possible.
Now that he had obtained the Qi Beasts, all he needed to do was to return quickly.
If he wanted to return, he would have to pass through two mountain peaks.
Not long after the two small beasts ran away, there was the sound of mature beasts around them. They must have noticed that two of their treasures had gone missing and were a bit angry, trying their best to find their baby.
After one of the beasts made a sound, the entire valley was suddenly filled with the sound of it.
A sense of danger began to spread throughout the valley. The Qi beast had lost its beloved son and was running around the valley in a fit of rage. Right now, it was even more dangerous than before it had come.
Mu Wanjun and Si Tu were running desperately in the forest.
Just now, they had caught two small beasts, but they didn't know that there was a special scent on Qi Jian's body. When she caught the scent, she had already accidentally touched it.
Right now, countless adult beasts were chasing after them with fireballs in their mouths.
I didn't expect it to be so troublesome!
Seeing that the sky had turned from clear to dark, and now from dark to bright, both Mu Wanjun and Si Tu became more and more anxious.
This valley was like a maze. Before, they could rely on the map to enter, but now, after running in chaos for an entire day and night, they were unable to find their way out.
Qi, who was behind them, didn't give them any time to catch their breath.
"What's wrong? Big Brother Mu Jun. "
Si Tu's little face was deathly pale as he ran with all his might.
All the muscles in his body trembled, but he held tightly onto the corner of Mu Wanjun's clothes.
Although Mu Wanjun was a little better off than him, she was still unable to take a rest due to the enormous consumption of her physical strength. Her legs trembled slightly as she used the stars in the sky to identify her direction.
There was not much time left. If he did not increase his speed, it would really be too late!
She suddenly raised her head to look at the opposite cliff. There was a bulge on the other side, and there was a flash on the bulging rock. From afar, the flash looked like a skeleton with its mouth wide open.
Mu Wanjun's gaze did not leave that place. She just watched in a daze, until Si Tu pulled on her sleeve.
"Big Brother Mu Jun, what are you looking at?"
"No …." Nothing... Let's hurry up and go. "
The two continued to move forward, but they were still like headless flies.
At that moment, a small rock was suddenly thrown in front of them.
It was not just one stone, but a few consecutively appeared, causing Mu Wanjun to be surprised, maybe someone was guiding her on purpose, but they did not have a clue now, so she decided to bring Si Tu and go in the same direction.
Just like this, there was actually someone who brought them out of this maze.
As he watched their departing figures, a touch of purple stood atop a large and sturdy tree, and his thin lips outlined a wisp of a charming smile.
When the first ray of sunlight shone through the thick clouds, in the middle of the mountain of Mount Kunlun, in the most grand hall, in the direction of the main hall, facing the morning sun, there was a tall tower. This tower was thirty meters tall, and it was built on the edge of a protruding cliff, looking exceptionally steep.
And on top of this tower hung an enormous bronze bell. On the side of the clock was a young man wearing a wide gray robe.
His gaze was fixed on the sea of clouds. The moment the first rays of the morning sun appeared, he used his strength to knock on the bell with the wooden stake that was hung horizontally in his hand.
A clanging sound was emitted from the bell. This loud sound pierced through the heavens and earth, reaching far into the distance like the morning light!
The evening drum and the morning bell!
At this moment, the morning bell on Mount Kunlun was still ringing!
In other words, time was up.
There were a lot of people standing in the main hall.
These people were all disciples who had passed the Kunlun College test. There were countless aristocratic children, and occasionally some of them were some of the offspring of the Humble Class.
And beside them, there was a common characteristic; they all had the God Beast Faction.
Now, the morning bell was still ringing. As it rang, people began to bring their divine beast Qi into the hall.
As the young duke, Zuo Chenfeng was an honored guest who was being invited. Naturally, he sat at the seat of honor with a cup of tea in hand.
His gaze swept across the crowd, looking for Mu Wanjun.
However, he didn't see anyone.
For no reason at all, his heart was anxious.
"Why isn't he here yet? Did we fail? "
He made a gesture, and the attendants behind him immediately stepped forward.
"Young duke, what are your orders?"
"What's going on with Mu Jun. Didn't they send someone to follow them? "
The servant nodded, and said in a low voice: "I just received news that our people have lost them."
"Throw it away?"
These were all dark guard s, and they were all from State Duke of Jin's Mansion s. Furthermore, they were personally selected by that person, and each and every one of them were cultivated by him, Zuo Chenfeng was extremely clear of these dark guard's abilities, even if it was a mosquito he was following, they would not be wrong.
"What's going on?"
The morning bell was about to end. If they did not make it at this time, the State Duke of Jin's Mansion would lose his qualifications to listen to them.
Zuo Chenfeng knew that Mu Monarch had come here because of the matter regarding the Old lunatic, and they even leaked the news to her on purpose. In order to come, she had even made sufficient preparations, yet failed at this crucial moment, no?
The attendant explained in a low voice: "It was deliberately done by an expert."
