"What's with this fragrance? Do you guys sll a faint scent?"
"This strange aroma... it's the scent of the Fire Spirit Fruit! The Fire Spirit Fruit is nearby! And it's ripening!"
"Here! The Fire Spirit Fruit is here!"
The cries of amazent surged like tidal waves among the crowd. At this mont, everyone gathered around a hidden crevice in the mountain. They gazed at a red fruit on a plant, but fell into an unexpected silence.
Everyone stared in a daze at the red fruit, the only sound being the pounding of their hearts.
"Damn, there really is a Fire Spirit Fruit! It's the Fire Spirit Fruit!"
"Haha! Our fortune has arrived!"
"Quickly, pick it! Delay could lead to change!"
Among the crowd, so laughed, so were overjoyed, and so couldn't help but reach out to pick the Fire Spirit Fruit. However, before the hand could touch it, it was slapped aside by Huang Dong.
"The Fire Spirit Fruit is not yet fully ripe! No one is to touch it!"
Huang Dong's voice was extrely stern, and his expression was more serious than ever, causing everyone to instinctively choose to obey.
The fact that the group found the Fire Spirit Fruit was entirely due to Huang Dong leading the way. Since Huang Dong had brought them here, it indicated that he did not intend to keep it all to himself.
Thus, everyone obeyed Huang Dong's command. Though their eyes were blazing and unwilling to leave the Fire Spirit Fruit for even a mont, they stood obediently behind Huang Dong.
Huang Dong's selfless conduct greatly changed the crowd's previous dissatisfaction with him. Although Huang Dong seed to fear death, he wasn't too bad after all!
How precious is the Fire Spirit Fruit? Soone willing to share it with everyone couldn't be that bad, right?
Yet, the crowd was unaware that from beginning to end, Huang Dong never intended to share this Fire Spirit Fruit with them. It was all part of Huang Dong's plan!
"Everyone, spread out! Once the Fire Spirit Fruit ripens, it will emit a strong scent, which might attract prowlers! Stay vigilant!"
Huang Dong's words put everyone on alert.
The Fire Spirit Fruit, being a coveted treasure, was well understood by everyone. Huang Dong's words were spot on.
The Fire Spirit Fruit has miraculous effects, but only a fully ripe Fire Spirit Fruit can unleash its full power. Additionally, as the Fire Spirit Fruit matures, it releases an increasingly potent aroma.
However, the crowd was in the ruins, surrounded by danger!
The scent could not only attract exotic beasts but also catch the attention of powerful cultivators! Despite their Vajra Realm strength, they were on the bottom rung here in the ruins. If they alerted a Zhiwei Realm expert, the treasure could never return to their hands, and they would all risk being killed!
However, so things tend to happen just as you fear them. While everyone was extrely tense, guarding against possible enemies, a voice suddenly plunged everyone's hearts into despair.
"Brother Luo, it's just ahead. A powerful cultivator hid a Fire Spirit Fruit here ten years ago. Now, ten years have passed, and it's almost ripe!"
This voice caused everyone's heart to sink.
There were only fifty cultivators from Huaxia who entered the ruins, and the only person with the surna Luo was Luo Yan!
Sure enough, heavy footsteps followed, and Luo Yan, along with two dozen cultivators, appeared before everyone in a flash.
"The Fire Spirit Fruit! It really is the Fire Spirit Fruit!"
Luo Yan didn't even glance at the crowd. His gaze went straight past them to the Fire Spirit Fruit, unable to suppress a cry of excitent.
The Fire Spirit Fruit significantly boosts the strength of any cultivator, and the stronger the user, the more terrifying the boost!
Undoubtedly, apart from defeating Xu Fan, nothing else could please Luo Yan more than the enticingly fragrant Fire Spirit Fruit in front of him!
Facing Luo Yan's blatant disregard, Aniu and the others clenched their fists, veins bulging, but they dared not make a sound.
The Fire Spirit Fruit was incredibly precious, but offending Luo Yan could cost them their lives! No treasure was worth more than one's own life.
However, Huang Dong seed unwilling to back down, and surprisingly, he stood fearlessly in front of Luo Yan, blocking his path to the Fire Spirit Fruit.
"Brother Luo, we discovered this Fire Spirit Fruit first. We're all cultivators from Huaxia, a land of manners and propriety, which values first co, first served..."
Luo Yan's brow slightly furrowed, and before Huang Dong could finish, an icy and domineering voice interrupted him, cutting off his aningless chatter.
"This Fire Spirit Fruit is mine, Luo Yan's! If you don't want to die, get out of my way!"
What a joke! Luo Yan never handed over anything he desired because of so courteous notion of 'first co, first served'!
Moreover, in these ruins, strength was the only language spoken! Who did this young upstart think he was, daring to challenge Luo Yan?
If it weren't for Huang Dong's Huaxia features, Luo Yan might have already killed him without hesitation!
"Brother Huang, let it go..."
Aniu and the others broke into a cold sweat at Huang Dong's bold stance against Luo Yan, quickly trying to advise calm and caution.
Previously, none of them cared about Huang Dong's fate. But after Huang Dong turned over a new leaf, helping them search for the Fire Spirit Fruit, they began to see him as one of their own.
Yet, Huang Dong's reaction took everyone by surprise.
At that mont, Huang Dong flung Aniu's hand off, angrily retorting, "Let it go? Luo Yan robbed us of our Tranquil Heart Herb, tried to wipe us out through despicable ans, and now wants to trample over us again! How can we just let it go?"
"Today, I must demand justice for all of us!"
Huang Dong's speech left everyone dumbfounded.
Aniu and the others shared one thought: Had Huang Dong gone mad after his change of heart? How dare he act so recklessly in front of Luo Yan?
Luo Yan and his followers were equally perplexed.
With Luo Yan's power, killing Huang Dong would be a re wave of his hand. How could their first encounter turn into a standoff with such animosity?
But the most baffling events were yet to co.
By now, Huang Dong was increasingly agitated, finally pointing at Luo Yan with a loud laugh.
"Today is the day you die, Luo Yan!"
