BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1639: 1639 How Did It Light Up?
“I…”
Gu Qingyu’s already pale face turned even paler at his words.
Regretting her past actions, she wondered how she had failed to realize the man’s high status. Had she known, she would have gladly given him the Sky Phoenix Grass for free, never asking for any money.
“You’ve had your meal, you… do as you please.”
Brother Zheen didn’t want to say anything more to her. After speaking, he turned and left.
“Brother Zheen, Brother Zheen!”
Gu Qingyu called out loudly behind him, wanting to catch up.
Unfortunately, her hands were still tied, and even if her feet were not, they were too weak to stand on.
She looked up at the two guards walking toward her and shook her head pitifully.
“No, I don’t want to be hung up, I don’t want… Ah!”
Before she could finish her sentence, she was kicked back again, hitting the hull of the ship and grimacing in pain.
…
“Brother, aren’t you going to ask for mercy for her?”
On the ship, around the corner, three disciples were waiting for Brother Zheen. Seeing him approach, they asked quietly.
“No.”
Brother Zheen coldly gave them a two-word reply.
Let Gu Qingyu learn her lesson this time, so she understands that she can’t always behave as she pleases out in the world. Poor interpersonal relations can be deadly.
After all, this time, Qian Jiyun did not intend to take her life, did he?
“It’s just as well; Junior Sister Qingyu’s temperament needs to be tempered,” one of the disciples sighed and said.
“Heh.”
Another disciple chuckled.
Probably after suffering a loss here, Gu Qingyu wouldn’t think of restraining herself but rather seek the Great Elder’s vengeance, right?
He felt that was very likely the case.
“After this trip,”
“Brother Zheen, something’s wrong.”
Before they could finish their sentence, they heard Zi Mo’s voice as she came upstairs holding something that resembled a crystal.
The crystal in her hand flashed with a red light.
“What happened? Why is the Beast-Seeking Stone lighting up?”
Brother Zheen saw the red light, his face suddenly went pale, and the other disciples also stepped forward to take a closer look at the Beast-Seeking Stone in Zi Mo’s hand.
“How did it light up? Could it be that the Sea Demonic Beasts have shifted their nesting place?” a disciple asked.
The Beast-Seeking Stone was a treasure of their Sect, used to detect if there were any powerful demonic beasts nearby, including Sea Demonic Beasts.
They had brought the Beast-Seeking Stone just in case.
And now, they saw the Beast-Seeking Stone light up, which meant that powerful Sea Demonic Beasts were near them, didn’t it?
“What should we do? Will our ship encounter Sea Demonic Beasts? Brother Zheen,” Zi Mo asked with a pale face and trembling voice.
“This…”
Brother Zheen had no answer to her question; after all, it was not his ship they were sailing on. They were merely hitching a ride on someone else’s vessel.
But weren’t they supposed to be safe from Sea Demonic Beasts as long as they navigated according to the Sea Area Map? He always believed that was how everyone traveled to the Zhedu Sea Area.
Why did it have to be different this time…
“Give me the Beast-Seeking Stone, I’ll go find Prince Zhan Yun and the others.” He took the Beast-Seeking Stone from Zi Mo’s hand and strode toward the staircase.
