1085 Rewards
When she turned around to look, she saw the giant ape cracking open its wide mouth as it ran up to her on all fours. It tilted its large, fat head with a charmingly naive smile.
"I'm walking by myself!" Qiao Mu quickly extended her spread-out palm at it.
The giant ape retracted its long, furry arms, glancing at her embarrassedly. Suddenly, it tossed out a large pile of items before her.
Qiao Mu: "…"
What else could she say? Weren't these the "entry fees" that it had duped from the other people?
The spirit stones that Little Sixth Zheng presented!
A shortsword spiritual weapon inlaid with a row of rubies, emeralds, and sapphires that Wei Nanshu had offered.
The two four-winged jade-eyed tiger fangs that the Saint of the Demonic Cult, Sikong Fuling, gave.
There really was everything one could think of!
After rummaging through that "trash pile," she pulled out Wei Nanshu's shortsword spiritual weapon as well as another high-ranked bow-and-arrows mystic weapon and weighed them in her hands.
She hung the shortsword from the belt on her waist and carried the bow and arrows on her back. As for the remaining large pile of stuff, Qiao Mu didn't reject anything and put it all away into her inner world.
Sigh, it really was difficult, collecting a pile of "scrap metal!"
While tilting its large head, the giant ape happily cracked its large mouth open as it watched her skillfully collecting the items.
Afterwards, it turned around and led the way, turning and twisting about the valley. Soon, they returned to where everyone was gathered.
When Xiao Mi saw that Qiao Mu had returned, she joyously ran up to welcome her. "Younger Sis, did you get your reward?"
Qiao Mu showed her the bow and arrow on her back and the shortsword at her waist.
Xiao Mi laughed when she saw them. "Not bad, not bad. A mystic weapon and a spiritual weapon. This Senior Xuanji is rather liberal with rewards."
Yet Qiao Mu was inwardly disdainful. That person didn't give rewards for nothing. Afterall, there was also a first, second, third, and fourth lousy condition!
Nevertheless, nothing showed on her face, and she still maintained her small stoic face as she reluctantly nodded in acknowledgement.
At this time, Wei Nanshu suddenly darted to Qiao Mu and stared with a vengeance at the shortsword that was hanging at her waist.
F*ck, wasn't that the spiritual weapon that he offered to the giant ape senior? Why was it hanging on the little lady's waist right now?
He had had the row of rubies, emeralds, and sapphires on the scabbard inlaid afterwards. Every single one of those gems was not cheap!
He naturally recognized the shortsword at a glance!
Wei Nanshu was so angry that smoke was fuming from his nostrils. He questioned furiously as he pointed at the shortsword at Qiao Mu's waist. "Why is this item with you?"
"What are you doing? Glaring at my younger sis so ballistically. You're sick of living, is that it?" Xiao Mi stepped up to shield Qiao Mu without a second word. "You think it's a great idea for a grownup man to yell at a little lady?"
"You, you! Step aside!" Wei Nanshu exclaimed indignantly, "I had given this shortsword to Senior Giant Ape eight days ago! Why is it with you now?"
"It's a reward!" Qiao Mu looked at him as if he were a fool.
This response made Wei Nanshu choke, and he had no idea what to say in response.
The shortsword was indeed his, but he had already offered it to the giant ape. Now, Senior Xuanji rewarded Miss Qiao with this shortsword, but what could he do about it?
He could do nothing other than swallow his anger!
Boom, boom, boom, boom. The giant ape treaded heavy steps as it carried over another stone tablet and threw it in front of everyone.
The inscription: 'This trial round will throw everyone into a glacial pond. Those who can persist in the cold pond for seven days will have the chance to meet Senior Xuanji.'
'Work hard, do your best! There is every secret treasure and spiritual weapon you could wish for waiting for you up ahead!'
