Chapter 1661: Chapter 1661: It Has Its Own Skills
“Uh.”
Zhan Beiye was choked up for a moment.
Everything had seemed fine when they arrived; who knew they couldn’t go back now? Why did he feel that the passersby were so unlucky?
“This isn’t quite right, is it?”
An Jiuyue propped her chin with one hand and blinked her eyes.
“There’s nothing wrong with it.”
Qian Jiyun naturally wouldn’t care about those strangers. The troubles they had already encountered along the way were enough; another incident and they really would not be able to return.
“The meat is seasoned and ready. Eat some. I’ll go make some soup.” He stood up, gave Zhan Beiye a meaningful look, and then flashed into his own space.
He had prepared some kitchenware in his space beforehand, which just so happened to be useful for this journey.
“Fine, I’ll be here, ensuring that those riffraff don’t disturb you.” Zhan Beiye looked at An Jiuyue with a cheerful grin and promised.
“Have some fruit.”
She took an orange out of her space and handed it to him.
“No, I better not.”
Zhan Beiye quickly refused. This orange was not for him to eat; the last one had almost killed him with its sourness. He really didn’t understand how An Jiuyue could eat them.
“It’s not sour, I got the wrong one before.” An Jiuyue moved the orange closer to his face and said.
Previously, she had accidentally given Zhan Beiye one of the oranges she would eat, nearly making him vomit all his bile. In truth, she thought, it wasn’t that sour.
Then she was harangued by Zhan Beiye for quite a while until finally, her ears could rest.
“Not sour? Alright then.”
Zhan Beiye hesitated before taking the orange and even sniffed it at the tip of his nose.
“You don’t know, just now Su Tang and I went over there to take a look. Jade Cloud Mountain is truly… It’s more like a mountain of snakes. I bet the inside of the mountain is full of snakes. It’s a wonder how it has remained standing all these years.”
He peeled the orange and complained as he did so.
“It has its ways.”
An Jiuyue replied nonchalantly. She wasn’t interested in contemplating how the mountain had remained standing.
“Have you thought of a way up yet?” she asked.
At the mention of this, Zhan Beiye was all dark lines in his head, shaking his head straight away.
“No, Su Tang even thought of setting the mountain on fire. With a mountain this large, I have no idea how he came up with that. He also wanted to use poison. I’m truly at a loss with him.”
After speaking, he sighed lightly. The mountain was truly difficult to climb, and the Cold Soul Flower Core was not easy to harvest.
“The more, the merrier, right? Since Su Tang’s men have nothing else to do, let them come up with a solution. In the end, it’s their own master they’re saving, isn’t it?”
An Jiuyue said.
Upon hearing this, Zhan Beiye understood what An Jiuyue meant.
She must have overheard Gu Qingyu inciting the guards and the idle chatter they spewed. That’s why she was deliberately giving them a tough problem. Probably, An Jiuyue already had some ideas in her mind.
“You’re still keeping score with them?”
He thought that given An Jiuyue’s nature, she wouldn’t bother to hold a grudge against those she didn’t know. At most, she’d give Xiang Qiyan a good beating to vent her anger after rescuing him.
“Huh!”
An Jiuyue let out a breath and calmly held her forehead.
“I don’t want to keep score, but… cough, I fear if I don’t, they might end up dying even more miserably.”
She didn’t care what those people said; no matter how much they talked, it wouldn’t cost her a chunk of flesh. But if she didn’t care, that didn’t mean a certain man would feel the same.
