Chapter 4271 Where the Qilin is
Hearing this, Feng Jiu couldn’t help but smile and said, “No need, we’ll be fine with just a few of us, you can go ahead, if we don’t find anything, we’ll follow after.”
“But …,” Ruan Pingzhi was still about to say something when he was interrupted by City Lord Gu.
“Alright, then you all be careful, you all know where we are heading, if you don’t find anything over there, then come look for us.”
“Alright then! Be careful yourselves, there are many fierce beasts in this forest, if you encounter danger, you can send us a signal.” Ruan Pingzhi handed over a signal flare as he said then with worry. In his opinion, several of them were young and they must not have much experience in such a place, their resilience was not as strong as theirs.
“Alright.” Feng Jiu smiled and answered, looking at Du Fan and the others, “Let’s go! Let’s go and have a look first.”
“Yes.” They answered and stood up.
“Then we’ll leave first, if we don’t find anything, we’ll see you later.” Feng Jiu nodded towards City Lord Gu and the others.
“Be careful with everything.” City Lord Gu said, watching them leave before he sat down again.
After seeing them leave, Ruan Pingzhi slapped his forehead as if he remembered something and said, “This Old Jiang said he went to inquire about that what’s-his-name, but it turns out that this was not told to us either! Old Gu, what did you mean by those words the other day? Letting Old Jiang go and inquire about what?”
City Lord Gu’s gaze flickered slightly as he glanced towards them, “You guys don’t know?”
“We don’t know!” The crowd shook their heads, waiting for him to say the following, but unexpectedly, he said, “Forget it if you don’t know, there’s nothing to say.”
At that moment, the crowd only felt that a breath was hung up and stuck at their throats, not going up and down, so uncomfortable.
On the other side, Feng Jiu several people left towards that mountain peak, on the way, Du Fan said, “Does Master think that the Ancient Qilin is at that mountain peak?”
“On the map, the surrounding mountains more or less have some trees. It’s only that one peak that has not even a blade of grass, maybe it’s because of the different geology, or maybe, there’s magma underneath the ground. As for whether the Ancient Qilin is there or not, we still have to go to take a look to know.”
Although Feng Jiu was speaking slowly, she was walking at an extremely fast pace, and the few people behind her followed closely.
After several of them passed through that patch of trees, they went over three more mountains before they saw that one mountain peak where not a blade of grass grew. They stood on top of their flying sword and looked down from above, scanning the surroundings.
They could only see the several surrounding mountains, one layer after another, and in the middle of it all, that mountain peak with no grass was in the middle. Not only was there not an inch of grass on top of the mountain peak, but even a large area around the foot of the mountain was also bare.
“Let’s go down and take a look.” Feng Jiu said, as she swiftly kept her flying artifact and landed on top of that mountain peak. When she was standing on top of the mountain peak, she could feel the heat emanating from the bottom of the ground. Obviously, this place was hotter than the other places. The temperature of the surroundings was much higher as waves of hot air came at them, not to mention, there was not even a fierce beast in sight.
“A place like this has not grown any grass since, I’m guessing that the magma cave should be underneath this mountain peak, in the ground, and that Ancient Qilin, should be hidden in here as well.”
Feng Jiu said with a burning gaze as she stared at this place underneath her feet, the Ancient Qilin, was here!
Upon hearing this, Du Fan’s eyes lit up and a delighted smile appeared on his face, “Great! Just, how are we going to find that Qilin?”
