Chapter 1036: Meeting Mo Yan (3)

“Little Qi, I don’t need these leaves now,” Leng Ruoxue said helplessly as she looked at the small and exquisite emerald green leaves on her palm. She didn’t want Little Qi to hurt itself to repay her kindness.

“Hehe! Sister, don’t worry. Plants follow a natural progression. Besides, I didn’t pick these leaves on the spot. I dropped them over the years and gave them all to you now,” Little Qi explained. Even though it was only a small tree with intelligence now, Leng Ruoxue’s words still warmed its heart. When it saw that it wasn’t the only sprite here, it was even clearer that its choice wasn’t wrong. Elder Sister was really a good person.

“That’s good. Little Qi, you have to cultivate hard and strive to transform as soon as possible. This way, you will have more friends,” Leng Ruoxue reminded.

“Yes, I will,” Little Qi said excitedly. Transformation was the greatest dream of every natural treasure. Now that there was such a good opportunity, it naturally didn’t want to miss it.

“Little Qi, do you know where the Black Star Grass is in the Dark Canyon?” Leng Ruoxue asked expectantly.

“I’m sorry, Sister, I’m not sure,” Little Qi said sheepishly. He felt bad that he couldn’t help his sister.

“It’s okay. Does Little Tiger know?” Leng Ruoxue looked at the little black tiger again.

“I only know Little Qi,” the little black tiger said honestly. Basically, there would be guardian beasts beside the natural treasures that were discovered. Therefore, once they discovered something good, they would not leave easily. Naturally, they would not have the chance to come into contact with other things. Moreover, the Black Star Grass was poisonous, and it did not like it.

“Oh!” It seemed that they had to continue walking in, Leng Ruoxue thought helplessly.

“Little Qi, Little Tiger, they’re my grandfather and brother.” Leng Ruoxue only remembered that she hadn’t introduced them when she accidentally saw her grandfather and brother’s interested gazes!

“He’s my fiancé.” Leng Ruoxue pointed at the freak again.

“Hehe! Hello, little fellows!” Leng Qingtian greeted them with a smile.

“Hello, Grandpa Stupid,” Little Qi said with a chuckle.

......

“Uh!” Leng Qingtian was depressed again when he heard this title. Boohoo.. Why did this little guy only know how to bully him! Previously, he teased him, and now he called him Grandpa Stupid!

“Hehe!” Leng Ruoxue couldn’t help but laugh when she saw Leng Qingtian’s expression. However, in the next second, she dragged the freak away to prevent her grandfather from flying off the handle.

“Bad girl, you even dare to tease your own grandfather.” Leng Qing couldn’t help complaining as he looked at Leng Ruoxue’s back. However, his granddaughter wasn’t around, so he could only turn his resentful gaze to his grandson.

“Grandpa, I’m not laughing at you,” Leng Ruohan hurriedly said. In fact, he was secretly laughing in his heart.

With that, he did not dare to stay any longer and slipped away.

“You..” Seeing that his grandson had disappeared, Leng Qingtian couldn’t help but stomp his feet in anger. Boohoo.. What a heartless little baddie! All he knew was to bully his grandfather.

“Hehe!” Little Qi, who felt Leng Qingtian’s childish thoughts, couldn’t help but chuckle.

“Little bad tree, it’s all your fault!” Leng Qingtian said with slight dissatisfaction.

Just like that, the man and the tree kept communicating..

The next day.

Leng Ruoxue and the others left the tent and saw that the grandfather and granddaughter had already prepared breakfast.

“Miss, you can eat now,” the old man quickly said when he saw Leng Ruoxue and the others come out.

“Oh! It smells so good! Your cooking is really good.” Leng Qingtian couldn’t help but praise after smelling the fragrance of the food.

“It’s not that. It’s just that Miss’s ingredients are good. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to make such good tasting food,” the old man said humbly. Yesterday, after Miss and the others compensated him for his culinary skills, they handed the task of cooking to him and even prepared ingredients for him. Otherwise, he really wouldn’t be able to make such a delicious meal!

“Don’t be humble. Your skills are indeed not bad,” Leng Ruoxue said with certainty.

“Hehe, thank you for your praise, Miss. Hurry up and eat! It won’t taste good if it’s cold,” the old man urged.

“Okay.” Leng Ruoxue and the others nodded and sat down at the dining table.

After breakfast, they cleaned up briefly and continued on their way.

After walking around the Dark Grand Canyon for two days, Leng Ruoxue and the others led the way and found a few more valuable herbs. However, the Black Star Grass she wanted to find was nowhere to be found.

“Miss, it’s even more dangerous to go any further, so I suggest you don’t go,” the old man couldn’t help but advise as they stood at the entrance of a narrow passageway.

“What’s inside?” Leng Ruoxue asked curiously.

“That’s the deepest part of the Dark Grand Canyon. Besides, I don’t think there’s the Black Star Grass that Miss and the others are looking for,” the old man said. However, even though he said that, he was actually not very sure if there was Black Star Grass inside.

“You’ve been in there?” Leng Ruoxue asked calmly. With the old man’s cautiousness, she didn’t think he had been in there.

“No, I’m too weak to enter,” the old man said honestly.

“But I want to go in and take a look. Otherwise, I won’t give up,” Leng Ruoxue said stubbornly.

“If you don’t want to go in, I won’t force you. I can pay you the reward now. Also, thank you for leading the way for the past few days,” Leng Ruoxue said.

“We’re guides. Since we brought you in, we naturally have to bring you out safely. Therefore, we can’t leave you here. Otherwise, if word gets out, how will we be able to raise our heads in the future! Forget it, I’ll accompany you in! However, you have to be careful inside. I heard from our ancestors that the danger there is a hundred times greater than outside,” the old man reminded.

“Okay, then let’s go in!” Leng Ruoxue said with a smile. Hehe! She really didn’t misjudge him.

“Alright,” the old man replied. Then he walked ahead to scout the way.

This path was abnormally narrow. Only one person could walk on it at a time, so the old man walked at the front while Leng Ruohan and Leng Qingtian followed closely behind. Leng Ruoxue and the freak walked at the back. The young man originally wanted to walk behind, but Leng Ruoxue rejected him. She had many life-saving methods, so she naturally couldn’t let a young man who hadn’t undergone energy conversion walk behind to protect them.historical
