Chapter 1289 - 1289: Sense Any Pressure?
A faint concern lurked in his heart. What if this item was harmful?
He had always looked for treasures in the past, but none of them had really caught the Yueming Emperor’s eye. This time, however, the “treasure” was something the Yueming Emperor had been anticipating eagerly. Could it be that it was not something good but something harmful?
“Young Master Qian, Madam Qian, do you sense any pressure?” he asked Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue.
“Your reaction is a little slow.” An Jiuyue looked at him and chuckled. “Be careful of the pressure from the guardian beast later.”
Heavenly treasures were usually guarded by guardian beasts, mostly formidable ones who claimed the heavenly treasures as their own.
Anyone attempting to seize it without sufficient strength might meet their end in the guardian beast’s jaws.
Young Master Nie gulped.
The pressure was immense. He could not help but wonder if the guard leader and the others would have been able to obtain the item from the guardian beast without Qian Jiyun.
He felt that it was unlikely. The most probable outcome was that they would all become snacks for the guardian beast.
“Young Master, please be careful. Don’t rush to the front.” Upon hearing An Jiuyue’s words, the guard reached out to pull Young Master Nie back.
They had already given up on the glory and wealth of the Yueming Empire. From now on, they could only wander with Young Master Nie. Hence, they had to protect their master.
“I know.” Young Master Nie knew what was at stake and nodded at him.
He was not stupid enough to charge forward. That item did not belong to him. He was only leading the way to it. Besides, there was no point in rushing forward. He had to behave himself.
“Madam Qian, that way.” He pointed in a direction for Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue.
“Mhm,” An Jiuyue replied softly.
Qian Jiyun reached out and held her hand.
To be honest, they no longer needed Young Master Nie at this point. Wei Na could already locate the Soul of the Divination Jade accurately.
However, they kept Young Master Nie by their side just in case. What if Wei Na alone could not find it? They might have to rely on Young Master Nie’s ability to sense treasures again.
“Wei Na, is that the right direction?” she asked.
“It is.” Wei Na nodded and added, “Master, I have to remind you that the guardian beast of this thing is very difficult to deal with. Its pressure is very strong. It’s not an ordinary demonic beast on Scorching Rock Peak.”
“I know.” An Jiuyue knew this long ago.
If this guardian beast was not powerful enough, how could there be no other demonic beast nearby?
“Jiyun, we might have to fight it out later, ” she reminded Qian Jiyun with a smile as she looked at the road ahead.
“As long as you’re careful, I’m fine with anything, ” Qian Jiyun said as he continued holding her hand.
As long as An Jiuyue remained safe, he could fight a demonic beast. Of course, he had not forgotten that the main purpose of this trip was to help her grow.
“That guardian beast doesn’t seem welcoming..”
