Chapter 592: Chapter 594: Heading to First-tier Sky
Upon hearing those words, Ji Hu immediately became serious, took the Beast Skin scroll with a solemn face, and nodded, "I will keep it safe!"
Su Tang also nodded cheerfully.
Ji Hu continued to stare seriously at Su Tang, and she didn’t have the heart to look away, so she made eye contact with Ji Hu.
Both of them just stared at each other, without speaking, creating a slightly awkward atmosphere.
Gaiyin pulled Su Tang behind him, his dark, vertical pupils shooting right at Ji Hu, clearly annoyed.
"Does the Antelope Chieftain have anything else?"
Ji Hu’s face changed abruptly, and he shook his head quickly, "Ah! No more, no more. I won’t interrupt your meal, I’ll go now, right away!"
With that, Ji Hu hugged the Beast Skin scroll and dashed off, as if a Flood Beast was chasing behind him.
Yadang let out a deep sigh, looking at Gaiyin with a teasing hint, "He is after all an elder, can’t you show some restraint?"
Everyone present apart from Su Tang had awakened their superpowers, which made Gaiyin’s act of intimidating the Antelope Chieftain quite shameless in order to get rid of him.
Gaiyin looked at Yadang with a slightly cold gaze, "Can’t you close your mouth even while eating?" n𝚘𝚟𝚙𝚞𝚋.𝚌o𝚖
Yadang looked back at him with a half-smiling expression.
Su Tang looked at both of them, puzzled, "What are you talking about? I don’t understand."
Ignoring Yadang, Gaiyin turned toward Su Tang and gave a gentle smile, "Nothing, we didn’t say anything. Want more roast meat? I can grill it for you."
Su Tang patted her slightly bulging belly and shook her head, "No, no, I’ve already eaten a lot, can’t eat anymore."
Gaiyin didn’t force her and quickly shoved the remaining roasted meat into his mouth.
Only a few people knew about their departure. Keli visited Yadang’s treehouse at night but left quickly.
From his dejected figure, one could guess that the conversation between them wasn’t pleasant.
Su Tang cleverly didn’t pry into it.
Because, after all, you are not the person involved, you couldn’t possibly completely empathize with their feelings and hardships, let alone the tears they had shed. Thus, you have no right to persuade others to forgive.
The next morning, Yadang seemed to have returned to his normal state, at least from the surface.
So, everyone tacitly avoided bringing up the matters of Upper Beast City after they left.
Time heals all wounds. Su Tang believed that Yadang would eventually move on.
...
Yadang knew where the First-tier Sky Canyon was located, so they didn’t take any detours.
The First-tier Sky was quite a distance from Upper Beast City. However, they were not in a hurry. They leisurely spent almost fifteen days before reaching the entrance to the forest leading to the First-tier Sky Canyon.
Yadang stopped, looking at the surroundings, and finally nodded, "This is it. After crossing this forest, we will reach the First-tier Sky Canyon."
Xishi frowned slightly and waved his hand under his nose, "What’s that smell? Why is it so unpleasant?"
Yadang nodded slightly, "This is the toxic smoke that the Antelope Chief mentioned. However, the smoke here is thin and doesn’t affect us much. As we go further in, it will become denser. Also, be careful with the ground. Some areas look safe, but they can trap you and slowly swallow you."
