Chapter 470
It’s Gone
When he saw the four people, Duo Kang was stunned. He rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
“Chief, why did you come out of the ground?” Duo Kang laughed nervously and retracted his axe.
Everyone else frantically retracted their weapons. Didn’t they leave the cave? Why did they return through the ground?
Duo Kang got someone to throw in some rope and they climbed out of the pit.
Zheng Luo briefly explained and then sat on a rock whose layer of ice had already been hacked off to catch his breath. Although they were strong warriors, the four had not rested since the ‘tunnel’. They had been afraid of the beast returning too so they were in a tensed state. They could finally relax here.
Duo Kang’s eyes brightened. “You mean, if we don’t leave for the moment, we can jump inside and start mining crystals every day?”
“Yes.”
The plan was good but as they mined, the scouts watching the Flaming Horn cave reported that those people had left the cave.
“They left?” There were so many crystals left, the beast was still strolling outside occasionally, why would they leave now?
“It has stopped snowing, the winds stopped too. Perhaps they decided to take this opportunity to leave.” The Shen chief was hesitant. Should they leave too? But there were so many crystals here. Right now, they were making larger progress than they did before.
HE could not bear to leave this place behind.
“Then… we’ll dig for a few more days?” suggested the Fox chief. However, he was thinking fast. They didn’t have Flaming Horn as bait but there were still other people. After they finished digging, they could just use these as bait.
That was why as the three tribes left, neither Fox nor Shen followed. They continued mining. The ones Fox recruited with the promise of salt also knew of the fire crystals now. At this point, they would not be willing to leave either.
Looking at these people, fully focused on the fire crystals, the fox chief and the lady beside him looked at each other, slightly smirking. The ones who’d lost all sense of reason were the easiest to manipulate. They were the best bait.
At this moment, Flaming Horn, Taihe and Mountain Wind trekked out of the cave towards the white pieces of land.
There was already a seven-meter thick layer of snow where the king beast had cleared. This layer of snow was taller than a house.
It was very difficult to travel across this place.
“Will we meet the beast?” asked Duo Kang.
“I don’t think… so?” Shao Xuan wasn’t sure either. He hoped their luck wasn’t too bad.
