Chapter 168 - Yue Lan's Killing intent

Yue Lan vigilantly raised her head to look at the top of the large tree.

Seeing that he could no longer continue to hide, Xiao Qianhan jumped down, followed closely by Ye Jun.

"It's you guys?" Yue Lan looked at Xiao Qianhan and Ye Jun in shock, why were these two here? Then, did the two of them hear the conversation between her and Yuan Shu just now?

How did they know about the secrets of the red tassel fruit?

A hint of astonishment flashed past Yuan Shu's eyes, then he looked at Xiao Qianhan and asked, "How have you been in Infernal Forest these past few days?"

Xiao Qianhan smiled and nodded, "I didn't encounter any danger along the way. Luckily, what about you?"

"I was in no danger either. It's good." Yuan Shu imitated her tone and replied.

The two couldn't help but laugh at each other.

Yue Lan, who was standing by the side, saw the scene, her eyes flickered slightly, but she still maintained her gentle smile and looked at Xiao Qianhan, "If we meet by chance, why don't we search for a treasure together?"

This was a probing question!

Xiao Qianhan looked at Yue Lan deeply, then shook her head and replied: "Thank you for your invitation and good intentions, but Ye Jun and I still have other things to do, so we will not waste your time searching for the treasure."

Yue Lan did not insist, but nodded her head and looked at Ye Jun, "I did not expect the two of you to be partners." She was very clear about Ye Jun's situation, because in the National Examination, only Ye Jun was unable to win against her in more than ten moves. In fact, if she thought about it now, Ye Jun and she had some similarities, she also had the spirit of fighting to the death. Even though her cultivation could not compare to hers, but she could still use her fearlessness to make it so that she could not win easily.

If the two of them also wanted the red tassel fruit, maybe they would need to waste some time to make the two of them give up.

"We'll meet again if fate wills it." Xiao Qianhan said to Yuan Shu before she left.

Yuan Shu gazed at Xiao Qianhan's leaving figure, his expression suddenly coming to a realization.

"I always wanted to ask you, but I forgot about it for a moment. Only now did I remember that you and Xiao Qianhan had known each other for a long time?" Yue Lan stared at the back of Xiao Qianhan and Ye Jun and smiled.

Yuan Shu retracted his gaze and looked at Yue Lan, "What we need to do has nothing to do with her."

"What?" Yue Lan was stunned, her expression dodging, could it be that Yuan Shu guessed what she would do? He had always been a man of few words, but that did not mean that he did not know anything. He clearly would not reveal a smile towards many people, but just a moment ago, he smiled at Xiao Qianhan.

If Yuan Shu interfered, she would indeed be unable to find him.

"She is a smart person and won't fight with you or me for the red tassel fruit. Her main purpose for entering the Infernal Forest isn't the red tassel fruit either." Yuan Shu said with a somewhat cold voice.

Yue Lan raised her brows, and smiled: "Are you afraid that I would harm Xiao Qianhan? Rest assured, there is only one thing worth thinking about in Infernal Forest, and that is the red tassel fruit, other than the red tassel fruit, I am not interested in anything else. "

Yuan Shu looked ahead with his deep eyes, as if that fragrant red tassel fruit was right in front of him. He did not respond to Yue Lan.

And after a short period of silence, Yue Lan sank into deep thought, looked once more at the back of Xiao Qianhan and Ye Jun who was about to leave, and lowered her eyes.

Three days later.

Yue Lan and Yuan Shu arrived near the red tassel fruit tree.

However, when the two of them arrived, they were shocked by the scene before them!

There were only two out of the four red tassel fruit tree left! The other two were actually dug up by someone. There were even two large holes in the ground.

"Who exactly did this? He actually dug out the entire red tassel fruit tree! This was such a waste! The red tassel fruit were not ripe yet, even if he moved the whole tree away and obtained the red tassel fruit, it would be useless! red tassel fruit can only be plucked from trees when they mature to have the effect of breaking through strength! Once the fruit was plucked before it matured, it would only be an ordinary fruit and would not even be able to strengthen the body. Who exactly is it? " Yue Lan's expression changed slightly, and her body became slightly stiff. Right now, there were only two red tassel fruit tree remaining out of the four, and only two left.

He originally wanted to keep one and consume it when his cultivation stagnates in the future. Now, he could only put that thought aside.

Yuan Shu Ye's expression slightly changed, "It should be done by people who don't understand the true usage of red tassel fruit."

Yue Lan took a deep breath, looked around, and said: "For the next month or so, we will wait here. If anyone comes to dig the tree, we can stop them in time."

"Yes."

After the two of them sat down, Yue Lan suddenly thought of two people, Xiao Qianhan and Ye Jun. Her face was gloomy, and she asked coldly: "Could it have been Xiao Qianhan and Ye Jun who did this? At that time, only they heard our conversation and knew of the words red tassel fruit. But maybe they didn't know what effect red tassel fruit had, so they were able to uproot and plant the red tassel fruit somewhere else? "

Yuan Shu frowned, and shook his head: "I won't, Xiao Qianhan won't be so reckless. red tassel fruit tree s have extremely high requirements for the environment, even if they were to move around, it would be difficult for them to continue growing. In the entire Infernal Forest, only this area is suitable for red tassel fruit to grow here.

"No, even if Xiao Qianhan is smart, given that sshe doesn't know much about red tassel fruit, he probably wouldn't think of the consequences." At this moment, she was completely certain that Xiao Qianhan did not understand red tassel fruit.

Yuan Shu said expressionlessly: "Yun Mojin will tell her about the red tassel fruit."

Hearing that, Yue Lan was startled, would Yun Mojin tell him about the red tassel fruit? The two of them had reached such a level of trust in each other? Her eyes were deep and serene, as if she needed to think over a question that she could no longer ignore.

She did not care about what the Shangguan Rong siblings said at the time. Even before she had entered the Infernal Forest, she had not truly treated Xiao Qianhan as a person … Her opponent.

But now, in this mysterious and unfathomable Infernal Forest, she had to think of a way to deal with this matter, to deal with Xiao Qianhan.

"Yuan Shu, I will go around to check and set up a few mechanisms to prevent people from approaching. If there really are people or spirit beasts approaching, then we will be able to sense them and be prepared in advance." Yue Lan softly said to Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu nodded his head, and Yue Lan immediately walked a bit further away, setting up a trap while summoning her Holy Beast.

Holy Beasts had always been proud, but they still respected Yue Lan a lot. The two were master and servant contracts, and the spirit beasts were absolutely loyal to Yue Lan. As long as it was Yue Lan's orders, the spirit beasts would definitely carry it out, and Yue Lan had never been dissatisfied with them before.

"Go kill someone, you must not leave any traces behind."
