Chapter 960 “The Suicidal Fox Family (1)”
“Wait a minute.” The dolly baby suddenly tugs at Bai Yan’s sleeve: “Queen Mother, I have something to give you.”
“What?” she asks with raised eyebrows.
Scratching the back of his head: “I don’t know either, but the bead reacted when I touched it and told me there’s something at this mountain peak I must take.”
“Lead the way then.” Bai Yan says after a moment of contemplating the idea.
“Kay.” Letting go of his hand from her dress, the dolly baby toddle further up the mountain until he came before a cave. Immediately, he runs inside and came back with an old box in hand to offer to the woman.
“This is…”
Carefully opening the lid after receiving the gift, Bai Yan didn’t know what to expect. However, the second she did so, a brilliant ray of light illuminated the sky from within and left her blinded to its content.
Monster essences, they’re all monster essences inside! In fact, they’re even more pure than the ones she got inside the Holy Domain, meaning she could directly break into the higher level of the Saint Rank in one go!
Taking in a deep breath, she presses down the excitement coursing through her veins in order to inspect the second layer. Unlike the first though, the second compartment only had a flag in there. From initial inspection, she couldn’t figure out what’s so special about this item. Sure, its threaded out of gold and had a flying pig painted on it, but aside from that to indicate it belongs to Moli’s clan in the past, there’s nothing exceptional from the surface.
“Queen, can you show me the flag in your hand?” Fei Yi’s eyes were glowing when he inquired for the item.
Not minding it, she readily hands the flag over. “Elder Fei Yi, can you tell what this thing is?” she asks with a serious voice.
“This…” caressing the flag like it’s some sort of amazing treasure, those old hands continued to shake from start to end. “If my guesses are right, there’s a powerful demon soul sealed within this tiny flag. However…. My queen, I suggest you not summon the one in there unless you are at the Celestial Rank level. Such a powerful being will definitely cause damage to its user from the recoiling force of the summoning.”
Startled on the face, Bai Yan was taken aback by the news. A powerful demon soul? If its sealed inside this flag then it must be incredibly strong, otherwise why would Moli’s ancestor go to such length in the past? I better not take any chances.
“Thank you for the reminder Fei Yi.” Putting away the flag now that she knows what’s inside, she then scans the surrounding before speaking: “Now I want to spend some time absorbing these monster essences. Elder Fei Yi, please have you people leave and set up a perimeter around the mountain. I do not wish to have anyone disturb me during this period.”
“Please be assured my queen, I will not let anyone near this sacred mountain.”
“Good.” Giving a nod as thanks, she then turns her gaze to the cave behind herself. “This cave is not bad so I stay in there until I’m completely done absorbing the monster essences.”
While Bai Yan finishes up her words of care for Dragony, Mo Li Shang decides to finally chime in. Those eyes of his were bright and hopeful at this moment: “Moli, what sort of gift are you going to give me?”
At first the dolly baby only just stood there like he’s lost in thought, blinking those big innocent eyes, but then his dullness quickly turned to shame. “I gave all the treasure to Queen Mother, I forgot about you….”
This truth made the teen twitch profusely in the cheek because he really wanted to ask who’s his master here? Thankfully Mo Li Shang didn’t really care all that much if he got a present or not. In his view, those treasures are more useful for Bai Yan so he’s happy to oblige the fact.
It’s just that….
The ungrateful behavior from his little friend has left him somewhat sad inside.
