Chapter 47: How Much Longer Will You Hold Aiyi?

Seeing the gazes cast by the three, Leng Ruoyao unhurriedly walked to the spirit herbs by the valley entrance and began to pick them.

Before long, a large handful of herbs appeared in her hand.

Zhao Yan squinted and looked closely, discovering that these herbs were actually first-grade Blue Silver Grass and first-grade Gu Chu Flower.

He couldn’t help but murmur in his heart: could these two ordinary first-grade herbs be used to make a sleeping potion?

After all, these two herbs might have no effect on ordinary ferocious beasts, so how could they affect a third-grade spirit beast?

Zhao Yan was a little confused and unconsciously looked at Zhang Fayue, hoping for an answer.

“Young Master Yan, the Young Madam is truly extraordinary.”

“These two first-grade herbs, when combined, may not have much effect on other ordinary ferocious beasts.”

“However, due to the special nature of the Exploding Fire Ape, they will have a peculiar effect on them instead.”

“Moreover, the ice and fire energies emanating from the Cold Flame Spirit Crystal Tree can also enhance the medicinal effects of these two.”

“As expected of the Young Madam.”

Zhang Fayue exclaimed sincerely.

He did not deliberately lower his voice, and the three people present could hear him clearly.

However, to his surprise, the three showed no reaction for a long time.

While Zhang Fayue was puzzled, he suddenly felt two powerful killing intents surrounding his heart.

He first looked at Zhao Yan and saw Zhao Yan shake his head at him with a helpless expression.

Then, he slowly turned his gaze to Leng Ruoyao and Ming Aiyi, seeing the spiritual power circulating around the two women and their displeased complexions.

“Who did you call Young Madam!?”

Ming Aiyi’s voice suddenly rang out. Her eyes were curved, and although she had a smile on her face, Zhang Fayue keenly sensed the immense killing intent hidden behind that smile.

This sudden change startled Zhang Fayue, causing him to tremble, and he frantically winked at Zhao Yan.

“Cough, cough, the immediate priority is to get the Cold Flame Spirit Crystal Fruit as soon as possible. Let’s act quickly.”

Seeing Zhang Fayue signaling for help, Zhao Yan quickly waved his hand, trying to change the topic.

“Hmph, Ruoyao, what do you say?”

Ming Aiyi softly hummed and looked at Leng Ruoyao.

This Zhang Fayue couldn’t even figure out who the real Young Madam was, he was simply asking for a beating!

With this thought, Ming Aiyi glared fiercely at Zhang Fayue again.

Zhang Fayue was intimidated by her glare and took a few steps back awkwardly, hiding behind Zhao Yan.

“Aiyi, let’s deal with these Exploding Fire Apes first.”

Although Leng Ruoyao’s complexion was not very good, for some reason.

When Zhang Fayue mentioned the Young Madam, her own inner revulsion did not seem as strong as before.

Leng Ruoyao waved her hand, signaling Zhao Yan and the others to find dry firewood around and pile it outside the valley to ignite.

“Try to cover your nose and mouth, and hold your breath,” she reminded them.

Ming Aiyi beside her quickly tore out some rags, soaked them in stream water, and distributed them to everyone.

Then, Leng Ruoyao flattened her palm, and the herbs in her hand began to knead together with the surge of spiritual power.

Under constant spiritual power compression, the herbs in her hand gradually turned into a blue and white pill.

Seeing that everyone was ready, Leng Ruoyao threw the pill into the fire.

Instantly, accompanied by the spreading smoke, a rich fragrance filled the air.

“Let’s all channel our spiritual energy together and send this smoke into the valley.”

Leng Ruoyao shouted, taking the lead. Her blue spiritual power surged like waves, stirring up fallen leaves.

At the same time, accompanied by a strong gust of wind, the thick smoke produced by the burning pill surged into the valley.

Zhao Yan and the others followed suit, their blue, cyan, black, and yellow spiritual powers converging to form a powerful force.

Soon, waves of smoke, like whirlwinds, rushed into the center of this small valley.

The previously deafening ape roars quickly weakened, as if suppressed by the smoke.

“Let’s go.”

After waiting for a moment and seeing no movement in the valley, the four agilely darted out, directly passing through the narrow valley entrance and charging into the valley.

As Zhao Yan and the others entered the valley, it was filled with mist, and their vision was somewhat affected.

However, they could still see quite a few fiery red giant apes.

These Exploding Fire Apes were all in a deep sleep, indicating that the sleeping smoke made by Leng Ruoyao was quite effective.

“The Cold Flame Spirit Crystal Tree is in the very center of the valley. This thick smoke won’t last much longer, we need to hurry.”

“It’s not too late to come back after dealing with that late-stage third-grade ferocious beast.”

Seeing that a few people seemed to want to land a final blow and earn more points in the joint examination, Leng Ruoyao urged them.

Then, the young girl stomped her foot, her speed increasing slightly.

Zhao Yan and the others followed closely. As they entered the center of the valley, they suddenly heard a low roar.

A giant ape suddenly lunged towards Ming Aiyi, who was behind Zhao Yan.

Ming Aiyi had initially thought that with the diffusion of the smoke, there would be no more ferocious beasts outside the center of the valley.

She did not expect there to be a mid-stage third-grade Exploding Fire Ape hidden here.

This sudden attack left Ming Aiyi completely defenseless.

It seemed she could only brace herself and endure this palm strike, the young girl sighed helplessly.

“Aiyi!”

Because Leng Ruoyao was at the forefront and some distance from the other three, she couldn’t return to defend in time.

Just as the Exploding Fire Ape’s beast palm, carrying fiery spiritual power, was about to strike Ming Aiyi’s beautiful back.

“Netherfire Escape.”

At this critical moment, Zhao Yan stomped his foot sharply, and his figure darted out as swiftly as a ghost.

Zhao Yan’s right hand quickly embraced Ming Aiyi’s slender waist, his palm clenching tightly. His left hand held a dark spiritual sword, entwined with blood-red spiritual energy, flashing with cold light, and he dashed towards the Exploding Fire Ape’s eyes at an extremely fast speed.

With blood splashing, the Exploding Fire Ape let out a tragic roar.

“Sword like Burning Flames.”

However, before the Exploding Fire Ape’s roar could even finish, with Zhao Yan’s soft shout, the spiritual sword, carrying scorching heat, instantly pierced its throat.

With a loud bang.

The Exploding Fire Ape’s massive body heavily crashed to the ground, shattering the surrounding rocks.

That was truly close. Fortunately, he had broken through to the Spirit Attachment Mirror and reached the second level of the Netherfire Divine Technique before coming, allowing him to cultivate the complementary spirit skill of the second level.

Although this was his first time using it, the effect seemed quite good.

Coupled with the double, wonderful feeling of the delicate body in his arms.

It indeed made Zhao Yan feel comfortable in body and mind.

After a while, just as Zhao Yan was reveling in the joy of his further advancement in strength.

“Pervert, how long are you going to hold Aiyi!”

A cold voice, with a hint of anger, sounded in Zhao Yan’s ear.
