Chapter 1040 - Abyssal Swamp (2)

"I'm quite proficient in alchemy. Is that enough!" Leng Ruoxue said helplessly.

"That's better," Mo Yan said like a child.

"Then can we continue on our way now?" Leng Ruoxue asked again.

"Yes." Mo Yan nodded.

After that, everyone walked for nearly an entire morning. Other than the few weeds and half-withered trees, they didn't even find the shadow of a single herb. Moreover, the deeper they went, the more Leng Ruoxue didn't believe that there was Black Star Grass here.

As noon approached, they found a relatively dry place to rest for the time being.

However, Mo Yan was actually not very satisfied with the place they found. He even asked Leng Ruoxue to dry this place with flames.

"Little pervert, hurry up! Hurry up!" Mo Yan pestered like a child.

"Uh!" Leng Ruoxue couldn't help but frown. She couldn't help but feel uneasy in her heart. Was this person really Mo Yan? Could he have been swapped? Logically speaking, the Mo Yan she knew shouldn't be so childish!

"Little pervert…" Mo Yan deliberately dragged out his voice.

"I'm afraid of you," Leng Ruoxue said helplessly. She resigned herself to fate and activated her vital flame, roasting the place they liked to stay dry. Boohoo… She only knew today that her vital flame had the effect of drying.

"Hehe! Not bad! Well done!" Mo Yan looked at the dry and warm place and nodded in satisfaction. Then, he found a random place to sit down and wait for lunch.

"Sir Mo Yan, you can only eat and drink well if you do it yourself, so hurry up and work! Don't think of slacking off!" Leng Ruoxue looked at Mo Yan and said with a light smile.

"Uh! I don't know how to cook," Mo Yan said awkwardly. It was fine for him to refine weapons, but it was better not to cook!

"Even though you don't know how to cook, you can't eat for free!" Leng Ruoxue said with a wicked smile.

"What do you want then?" Mo Yan said warily. That Di Ren owed this little pervert a huge debt. Could it be that this little girl had designs on him again?

"I don't want to do anything, but it's only right to pay for the meal. However, you can also choose not to eat. After all, you're already a Divine Emperor. It's fine if you don't eat," Leng Ruoxue said with a smile.

"I want to eat it!" Mo Yan was very depressed. Boohoo… This bad girl was getting more and more fond of bullying him. However, he couldn't hit or scold her, so he could only sulk.

"Then pay up!" Leng Ruoxue stretched out her fair and tender hand and handed it to Mo Yan.

"Uh! How much do you want?" Cold sweat dripped from Mo Yan's head. He was even more speechless in his heart. This little pervert really wanted to collect money from him!

"I won't ask you for much. I'll just charge you a supreme-grade crystal for a meal," Leng Ruoxue said lightly.

"A supreme-grade crystal? Your food is so expensive. I don't think many people can afford it!" Mo Yan was speechless and looked at Leng Ruoxue even more strangely.

"I won't give it to others if they want to eat it! However, I know you can definitely afford it!" Leng Ruoxue said with certainty.

"Uh! Alright then! However, you have to remember that I don't have that many supreme-grade crystals on me," Mo Yan said helplessly.

"Hehe! I love to keep accounts so that I can calculate interest!" Leng Ruoxue said with a faint smile.

"…"

Mo Yan was really speechless. It seemed that not only was this girl a pervert, but she was also a money-grubber. Sigh! Now, he could finally understand Xiao Yu's feelings because he was also helpless against this little girl!

Even though he had been cheated, Mo Yan was still very happy with his meal!

After lunch, the group took a short break and continued on their way.

"Mo Yan, there are so few people here!" Leng Ruoxue couldn't help asking curiously after walking for almost a day and not seeing anyone.

"Yes! The people here definitely can't compare to the Dark Grand Canyon. There were still many people who came here to train in the past. However, as the living environment changed and the animals and plants here became fewer and fewer, the number of people who came here gradually decreased," Mo Yan explained.

"Oh! Then with your experience, where do you think there will be traces of Black Star Grass?" Leng Ruoxue asked shamelessly.

"I don't know either. Why don't we go over there and take a look! I heard from Liu Yu that there used to be a lot of herbs over there." Mo Yan pointed to the south of the Abyssal Swamp. This Abyssal Swamp was like the Dark Grand Canyon. There was a lot of fog, so the range of their divine sense couldn't be too far. Therefore, they could only walk over.

However, what made him happy was that along the way, other than the mud beast they had encountered before, they did not encounter another mud beast. Well! Could it be that those mud beasts were frightened by this girl, so they did not dare to show their heads? He could not help but guess.

"Okay." Leng Ruoxue and the others nodded. Then, everyone walked towards the south of the Abyssal Swamp.

When they arrived at the place Mo Yan pointed out, it was already evening. The fog was even thicker, and they could barely see clearly. Therefore, Leng Ruoxue and the others could only find a flat place, set up the tent, and prepare to continue on the road the next day.

This time, without waiting for Mo Yan to speak, Leng Ruoxue took the initiative to warm them up in the tent they wanted. After all, the night in the Abyssal Swamp was very cold.

"Little Pervert, well done." Mo Yan nodded in satisfaction.

Leng Ruoxue glanced at Mo Yan and scattered a circle of colorless and transparent powder around the tent to prevent snakes, insects, rats, and ants from disturbing them. This way, they could rest in peace.

"Little pervert, what medicine did you sprinkle?" Mo Yan asked curiously. In fact, he had always wanted to ask this question, but every time he was about to ask, he was interrupted.

"Poison," Leng Ruoxue said softly, and then she saw Mo Yan's expression change again and again.

"Don't be afraid. This medicine only works on uninvited guests." Leng Ruoxue comforted with a naughty smile.

"Oh! Lucky!" Mo Yan broke out in cold sweat. However, after hearing Leng Ruoxue's explanation, he finally relaxed.
