”Ahem, Xiaoyun, why don't you ate tasks, if only to break the ice ”Gou, you go and catch so to starve forever,” he said with a slightly aered wang Xiaoyun’s anxiety, ed to suppress it ”I will make the fire,” she said obediently Xue Wei nodded before setting out to inspect the entire area
He wanted to scout their surroundings a little, but he quickly decided against it after distancing himself from their caly, so only humans could prove troublesome, but encounters with civilization were unlikely to happen out here in Goat Mountain, a place dominated by the Primordial Beasts
So he went back and looked for the other two He found wang Xiaoyun in thewood, and approached her
”Letup randoround
Neither spoke, but there was a s Xiaoyun's face, and her one eye was tranquil It was clear that Xue Wei’s presence brought her peace
”Oh look, what a pretty flower,” wang Xiaoyun said suddenly Xue Wei lifted an eyebrow and walked over to see His jaw dropped when he saw it, however
”How lucky can we be?” heXiaoyun heard it

”Does that mean that our objective here in this weird place is co Xiaoyun asked curiously It seemed that it had been a little too easy

”You are after the supre Xiaoyun was shocked, but after considering Xue Wei's reasons for his assuree that it made sense
”Still, after all these years, I wonder if it is possible for no one to have found the inheritance after all these years I could iine that this place is swamped with Fierce and Primordial Beasts”
”Keep in mind that beasts have innate abilities They can use the treasure, true, but skills developed for hu her of the dichoto Xiaoyun's face lit up with a slight hint of excitement as she recalled this fact
