Chapter 1315 The Dark-Bellied "Hill"
Chapter 1315 The Dark-Bellied "Hill"
However, when "Xiaoqiu" saw this, he grinned, and that smile was full of cunning.
Then, "Xiaoqiu" spat out the colorful erosion mist that he had swallowed, quickly forming a deadly barrier in front of the two of them.
This sudden change caught the two off guard and scared them so much that they quickly dodged and retreated.
"Xiaoqiu" glanced at the two of them provocatively with his big eyes, as if to say, "I can swallow this seven-colored erosion mist, and I can also spit it out. Don't try any tricks."
Its actions not only successfully frightened other people with bad intentions, but also made Sima Mingyi look surprised.
Lu Chen knew that it would take time for "Xiaoqiu" to refine the colorful erosion mist it had swallowed. If a few more hours passed, it probably wouldn't be able to spit it out.
"Fellow Daoist, I wonder if you are selling your fairy pet. If so, I am willing to buy it no matter how much you offer." Sima Mingyi looked at Lu Chen with a strange light in his eyes.
In his opinion, "Xiaoqiu" can not only devour the seven-colored erosion fairy mist, but its strength is comparable to that of a cultivator in the late Taiyi Xuanxian realm.
Otherwise, even if it could break through the seven-colored erosion fairy mist, without sufficient strength, it would not be possible for it to arrive first and resist the two people just now.
Lu Chen was about to answer, but "Xiao Qiu" beat him to the punch and said, "Humph, you are worthy."
The monk who had wanted to buy the "hill" before sneered in his heart when he saw this.
He knew very well that Lu Chen would never sell "Xiaoqiu", and given Sima Mingyi's character, once they started fighting, they would be the only ones who would reap the benefits.
Lu Chen also knew that he should get the Five Elements Dao Fruit first, so he did not continue to dwell on this issue. Instead, he kicked "Xiaoqiu" on the butt and scolded in a low voice:
"Why are you showing off? Hurry up and collect the Seven-Colored Erosion Fairy Mist. The Five Elements Dao Fruit is more important."
Upon hearing this, "Xiao Qiu" instantly turned into a black shadow and rushed out. After taking away the only seven-colored erosion fairy mist, he rushed towards the Five Elements Avenue Fruit Tree.
Lu Chen, Li Zegang, and Sima Mingyi all quickly followed.
However, when everyone arrived in front of the Five Elements Avenue Fruit Tree, they heard the voice of "Xiaoqiu" saying:
"Huh? Why are there some rotten fruits on the ground? It would be a shame to throw them away. Anyway, I am a demon beast and I don't care about what I eat. You human beings, please don't try to steal from me."
After saying that, "Xiaoqiu" opened his mouth, instantly rolled up more than twenty Five Elements Dao Fruits on the ground, and threw them into his mouth.
It was moving at an extremely fast speed. Even if someone wanted to stop it, it was too late. They could only watch helplessly as more than twenty Five Elements Dao Fruits were eaten by "Xiaoqiu".
This scene immediately made Sima Mingyi and others look extremely ugly. Even Li Zegang, who always prided himself on being from a famous and upright family, had a gloomy face and felt that something was wrong.
If it was any other fruit, it would have been eaten, but the key point is that this is the Five Elements Dao Fruit, and it was eaten by a monster. It is really a waste of resources.
So Sima Mingyi took the lead and asked:
"Fellow Daoist, your immortal pet ate over twenty Five Elements Dao Fruits in one go. Shouldn't you give us an explanation for this matter?"
The greed that had been temporarily suppressed by the threat of the seven-colored erosion mist suddenly broke out at this moment, and they all asked Lu Chen for an explanation.
"That's right, you must give us an explanation. When we broke the formation, we had already agreed that if there were any treasures, we would share them equally.
Now, not only do you want to take 30%, but your pet also eats at least 20%. Isn't this bullying?"
A monk shouted indignantly, his face flushed red, obviously extremely dissatisfied with "Xiaoqiu's" behavior.
"Who says it's not? Isn't the Five Elements Dao Fruit that fell on the ground still a Five Elements Dao Fruit?
Moreover, those that fell on the ground showed that they were fully ripe and showed no signs of rotting.
This beast didn't care about his food and ate more than twenty of them. It's really too much."
Another monk also joined the ranks of condemnation. Their words were full of doubt and anger, and the atmosphere at the scene reached a freezing point at one point.
When "Xiao Qiu" heard the other party calling him a beast, he shouted "Go Nima" and was about to rush up to fight, but fortunately he was stopped by Lu Chen's telepathic communication.
Li Zegang did not express his opinion upon seeing this, and obviously condoned everyone's behavior. In fact, he also wanted to force Lu Chen to get less so that he could get more.
Sima Ming thought that he had successfully aroused public anger, and a smug look flashed in his eyes. He didn't mind joining forces with Li Zegang to kill Lu Chen first, and then discuss the distribution plan.
Because no matter what, without Lu Chen, he would definitely get more than he does now.
However, after hearing everyone's accusations, Lu Chen was so angry that he almost laughed. He understood what everyone meant.
He raised his hand and took out the great sword "God Slayer" and said in a low and cold voice:
"Do you really think I'm easy to bully? We worked together to break the concealment formation, and it was my pet that solved the Seven-Colored Erosion Mist.
Besides, it was only said before that the Five Elements Fruits on the tree should be divided equally, and it didn’t say that those on the ground should also be divided equally.
How can you be so shameless as to have the nerve to snatch things from a beast?
As for the explanation, Xiaoqiu! Spit out the same Seven-Colored Erosion Fairy Mist you just swallowed."
As soon as Lu Chen gave the order, "Xiao Qiu" immediately understood and let out a low growl.
Just as it was about to spit out the seven-colored erosion mist, it received a telepathic message from Lu Chen, saying, "Fool, just pretend. If a real fight breaks out, it will be very disadvantageous to us."
Sima Mingyi, Li Zegang and others did not expect that Lu Chen would turn against them so easily. They originally thought that they could easily control Lu Chen by relying on their numbers.
However, at this moment, faced with such a strong attitude and the seven-colored erosion mist that was enough to threaten them, everyone immediately realized that they might have made a serious mistake.
"Wait a minute, fellow Taoist. We can talk it out. We are all in the same boat. Why do we have to make things so extreme?" Sima Mingyi broke the silence first, with a forced smile on his face, trying to ease the tense atmosphere.
Seeing this, Li Zegang quickly agreed, "Fellow Daoist, please calm down. We have all come together for a common goal. There is no need to make a big fuss over such a small matter.
They just mentioned it casually, without any ill intention. Besides, your beast pet really helped a lot. Without it, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to get the Five Elements Fruit."
Seeing this, the other cultivators nodded in agreement, fearing that Lu Chen would act impulsively and make things out of control.
So everyone started talking and trying to persuade them, trying to save the situation.
At this time, Xiaoqiu, who understood the situation, also urged loudly:
"Boss, I think they really want to reconcile sincerely. Otherwise, that monk just called me a beast, which caused serious trauma to my heart.
Why don't you give me this Five Elements Fruit Tree as compensation after you've divided up the Five Elements Fruit? Otherwise, if I get angry, I won't be able to control my body, and if I accidentally spit out the Seven-Colored Corrosion Fairy Mist, what will I do then?"
When Lu Chen heard this, his face showed no joy or anger, but he gave "Xiao Qiu" a thumbs up in his heart.
