Chapter 924: Chapter 929: Seeing Roast Meat Makes Me Want to Vomit
Yadang and Qiu Mo were teleported out at the dead of night.
The surroundings were quiet and empty.
Yadang scanned the area and saw only three Beastmen sleeping soundly under a tree in the distance.
Liao Li probably hadn’t expected anyone to come out in the middle of the night, let alone that the Beast Soldiers he had stationed there to keep watch would fall asleep.
"Are we... out?" Qiu Mo’s voice was very low, and since she couldn’t see anything, she nestled anxiously in Yadang’s arms.
"Yes, there are people, don’t talk."
Qiu Mo immediately fell silent in fright.
Soon after, Xi’en also appeared not far from Yadang.
Their eyes met in mid-air. Yadang quickly raised his index finger to his lips, signaling Xi’en to keep quiet.
Xi’en saw the Beastmen sleeping soundly and nodded.
After confirming their location, Yadang picked up Qiu Mo and went first to an Ancient Tree, reaching into a hole in the tree, where, sure enough, there was a book hidden inside.
Before entering the fifth trial, Su Tang had told them that if an emergency arose and they had to leave, they must find a way to get this important book before departing.
If it had been daytime, it might have been a bit difficult to take it without making a sound.
But now, in the dead of night, there was no one around to guard, and they just took the book and left as if it were no man’s land.
The journey back to the Peach Blossom Land was very smooth.
While Xi’en’s hunting skills were weak, Yadang had abundant practical experience. Capturing some fierce prey was a bit difficult, but dealing with ordinary ones was like taking something out of a bag.
And with Qiu Mo there, there was no need to worry about water on the road.
The only regret was that they had no salt, and after eating saltless Roast Meat for over a month, their taste buds were almost malfunctioning.
So for the remainder of the journey, they hurried along, hoping to get back to the Peach Blossom Land soon to save their sense of taste.
Finally, after a full two months, the three of them stepped into the range of the Death Forest.
Seeing the familiar scenery around them, Yadang was so excited he was nearly crying buckets of tears.
"We’re back, in at most two more days, we’ll reach the Peach Blossom Land."
A tired smile spread across Qiu Mo’s face, "That’s wonderful. I just wonder how Tangtang and the others are doing."
Yadang wasn’t very worried, "With Gaiyin and your brother there, what is there to fear? No one else is a match for them."
Xi’en nodded, "That’s true."
Qiu Mo sighed and said no more.
Yadang, with a grin, patted Xi’en on the shoulder, "You’ve had a tough time these past days, but once we’re back at the Peach Blossom Land, I’ll make sure you get to eat all the best and spiciest food."
Xi’en couldn’t help but laugh wryly, "Don’t talk to me about food anymore, I feel like throwing up at the sight of Roast Meat."
Xi’en was a Ming Deer Beastman and wasn’t fond of meat. Throughout their travels, they didn’t always come across fruit trees, so he had eaten more Roast Meat during this time than he had in all his life before.
Not to mention eating the flavorless kind without any salt.
Xi’en felt that given the choice, he might never eat Roast Meat again in his life.
Qiu Mo laughed out loud, "I really don’t feel like eating it anymore either, but the Roast Meat in the Peach Blossom Land is different from what you’ve had before. Ours is seasoned with lots of spices, and it tastes particularly good!"
Yadang nodded in agreement, "It’s okay if you don’t want Roast Meat, we also have rice, noodles, dumplings, pancakes, and stuff like that."
