Chapter 914 (2/2)

“You two, running around again…”

“Don’t you know that Immortal Crossing Island is about to open, and you can’t just go out as you please?”

“If you accidentally leave the range of the light screen, once you go out, you can’t come back, and when the external cultivators arrive at Immortal Crossing Island, they will capture and roast both of you.”

Upon hearing this, the two creatures couldn’t help but shiver, then they quickly lowered their heads and whimpered softly, as if they knew they were in the wrong.

Seeing this, the old ape seemed to feel pity, and he sighed helplessly.

“Forget it…”

“Though you two are mischievous, at least you know what’s important and wouldn’t easily leave, right?”

The two creatures nodded repeatedly.

Little Gold even came closer, stretched out its head, and rubbed against the old ape, seemingly demonstrating its good behavior.

The old ape found this comforting and gently stroked Little Gold’s head while speaking:

“This place is different from where we used to live, aside from us, there are other Demonic Beasts that have moved here too.

If you accidentally provoke them, even I might find it hard to rescue you.”

“Do you understand?”

The two creatures whined and nodded continuously, indicating that they understood.

Little Gold even gestured and chirped at the old ape, seemingly saying that neither it nor Little Black had invaded any other Demonic Beast’s territory.

The old ape watched Little Gold’s gesticulation and suddenly paused.

Then…

The old ape stared at the two creatures for a long time until a while later, he directly spoke to the two creatures,

“Did you two go again to that unoccupied mountain range in the north?”

Upon hearing what the old ape said, Little Gold froze, then immediately lowered its head, and Little Black did the same, burying its head into its chest after the old ape finished speaking.

“Speak…”

The old ape looked at the two creatures and spoke again, but his tone had become much harsher than before.

Although Little Gold and Little Black could not speak, they still possessed intelligence like two children, and the creatures seemed to realize their mistake.

After a moment, the two creatures slightly raised their heads, glanced at each other…

After eye contact, the two creatures slowly raised their heads to look at the old ape again.

Then…

After hesitating for a while, the two creatures nodded slightly, but right after nodding, they again lowered their heads, as if preparing themselves for the upcoming storm.

Seeing the two creatures admit, the fire that had just subsided in the old ape flared up again.

Then, no longer indulging the two creatures, the old ape directly scolded,

“You two really don’t know what’s good for you.”

“Last time, a Demonic Beast at the Dao Integration Stage had just gone in to explore that place and disappeared, and there’s still no news.”

“How long has it passed, and you two run there again.”

“Don’t you know that the Transcendent Celestial Golden Lotus might possibly be located there on our Immortal Crossing Island?”

“That place is so dangerous, yet you dare to go there, are you not wishing to live?”

Little Gold, upon hearing this, buried its head even lower.

While Little Black, at that moment, moved forward a bit and pulled out a dark vine root from its shiny black feathers.

This vine root was equally dark.

As an Alchemist, Lin Jing immediately recognized that this vine root was a grade-seven Spirit Plant, one of the supporting herbs used in making the Longevity Life-Extension Elixir.

After pulling out the dark vine root, Little Black placed it right in front of the old ape.

The old ape took the vine root, looked at it carefully, and then directly spoke:

“You two…”

“Even if there are High-Grade Spiritual Plants there, you can’t just venture out like that.”

“Don’t you realize how dangerous that place is?”

“Furthermore…”

“I naturally know that there are many rare plants there.”

“But you can’t just go there casually, and you mustn’t go there anymore…”

As the old ape continued to ‘preach’, the two creatures kept their heads down, not daring to lift them, enduring the scolding.

As Lin Jing watched this, he silently controlled the observation perspective, leaving the scene.

The old ape, Little Gold, and Little Black were all safe, and Lin Jing was relieved; he also decided not to disturb them, choosing not to meet them.

From what the old ape had said, Lin Jing learned that the mountain range to the north was potentially the location of the Transcendent Celestial Golden Lotus.

Furthermore, since Lin Jing had seen Little Gold and Little Black in the second picture, it was very likely that the Transcendent Celestial Golden Lotus was there.

Lin Jing planned to head there now, to the northern mountain range to investigate…
