Chapter 333 Monkey King Mountain, Rumors of the Spiritual Infant Fruits
Zhu Dazhong and that Young Master Zhao both jumped out and stood in an area inside the Spiral Valley. They seemed to hesitate and pause.
Obviously, those people who were standing on top of the slope also saw these two. Someone immediately called out: "Look, there are people down there."
"And they are alive!"
Qin Wushuang had seen these two from afar. His heart sank: "Why did these two appear here? Could it be they were the ones that played these tricks?"
Immediately, he turned his head to ask: "Everyone, were these two the ones that told you about the rumor?"
"I don’t think so?"
"No no."
Qin Wushuang did not find it strange. If it was Zhu Dazhong who spread the rumors, he would surely use a way to use others to spread it. This trick was not that difficult to carry out.
Since there were people alive down there, these people did not hold back as they rushed toward the bottom of the valley. Although Qin Wushuang had doubts about Zhu Dazhong and Young Master Zhao’s motives, he was not afraid and followed.
When he arrived, Zhu Dazhong smiled at him when he saw Qin Wushuang. He pretended that their previous confrontation had never happened as he said: "Mister, long time no see. Where are the two girls?"
Qin Wushuang smiled lightly: "Could it be that your friend is still thinking about those two girls?"
Hearing Qin Wushuang’s mocking words, although Young Master Zhao felt frustrated inwardly, he pretended to be depressed : "Mister, it was my fault earlier. However, today, we shall not hold onto those old grudges, right? You guys came here for that Spiritual Infant Fruits, why don’t we all work together?"
"Work together?" Qin Wushuang felt as if he was hearing the funniest joke, "Everyone wants that Spiritual Infant Fruits, how do we work together?"
"The rumors says that this Spiral Valley is full of danger and many elite warriors went missing here. Us two refused to believe it and came to investigate. We did not see any danger. It seems everyone was fooled by the rumors."
These words instantly made everyone feel more relaxed.
It was wonderful that no danger existed.
Qin Wushuang remained calm and silent as he understood Zhu Dazhong very well. It would be best to think the opposite of his words. When he said that there was no danger, perhaps, the danger was right next to you.
To these people, the fact that Zhu Dazhong was at the Advanced Stage was the greatest threat. Of course, Qin Wushuang would not expose it.
Zhu Dazhong said: "However, the two of us have limited ability to investigate. For now, there is no danger. It does not mean that it would remain that way. Everyone, I have a suggestion, I wonder if everyone would be interested to hear?"
"What suggestion?"
"Right, of course we are willing to listen to constructive suggestions."
Zhu Dazhong smiled: "Allow me to speak honestly, did everyone come here with the same intention as I did, for the Spiritual Infant Fruits?"
"Ha ha, since you’ve already said it, it would be meaningless to refute it. Yes, at least the two of us brothers came here for that fruit."
"Yes, us too."
Zhu Dazhong looked at Qin Wushuang and wanted to hear his statement. However, Qin Wushuang said: "I am not."
Obviously, Zhu Dazhong did not believe him, yet he did not expose him as he laughed: "Regardless of whether you did or not, its true that everyone must go through this Spiral Valley, right?"
"In the past, didn’t Spiritual Infant Fruits appear here Why would we come to this valley without searching for it?"
"Yes, Mister, could it be that you want to use lies to make us go away and take the Spiritual Infant Fruits all to yourselves?"
As soon as someone had said these words, the others looked at Zhu Dazhong with suspicion. Again, vigilance and mistrust filled their eyes. Apparently, they would rather believe it the truth than not.
Although Zhu Dazhong spoke nicely, there was the so-called saying of you should never trust a person’s face over their intentions. It would be impossible for adventurers to trust each other.
Zhu Dazhong did not mind as he laughed: "I know what everyone thinks, you guys don’t trust me. This doesn’t matter. With greater numbers, we should all go search the place. It would be much easier if there are Spiritual Infant Fruits. In fact, I also hope it is here."
Suddenly, Qin Wushuang said: "If it is here, you would have taken it earlier. If you guys leave in this chaotic situation after letting everyone waste their time searching, wouldn’t we still fall into your trap?"
Zhu Dazhong sighed: "Mister, you have a wild imagination. I will not go and search with you guys. Honestly, we only got here less a day ago. Do you think that we were able to seize the mature Spiritual Infant Fruits in that amount of time? That we would then wait here like idiots for you guys to arrive?"
Indeed, his words had delivered its effects. All those adventurers felt his words made sense. What were Spiritual Infant Fruits? It was something that would only bloom every few hundreds of years. What was the probability of him encountering it at such a time?
If these two had truly received the Spiritual Infant Fruits, they could just keep walking and return after a while. Why would they stay here?
Qin Wushuang’s words had intended to set the giant tree as a target to make the other adventurers become hostile toward them. This way, he could also sit back and collect the harvest.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Dazhong was quite sly and cunning as he managed to parry Qin Wushuang’s attack.
Currently, including Qin Wushuang, there were twenty-two adventurers present. These people started a thorough search of the Spiral Valley.
The result was obvious, indeed, there were no traces of the Spiritual Infant Fruits.
Everyone understood that from the bottom of their heart, this place had been an empty promise.
Apparently, these people did not wish to stay together as they all left in different directions. Everyone wished to reach the third place where the Spiritual Infant Fruits had previously appeared at the fastest pace.
In fact, Qin Wushuang did not wish to travel with these people. This time, he decided to travel at full speed.
Despite this case, Qin Wushuang still did not use the "Wind Walk Talisman" and used his feet alone. Along the way, Qin Wushuang tried to avoid all interference. Although he encountered some wild spiritual beasts that attempted to harass him, Qin Wushuang did not engage them and avoided everything.
After another ten days, he arrived at the third location. This place was called the Monkey King Mountain. This Monkey King Mountain was an extremely mysterious place in the Dispersed Praying Mountain.
It was also the place where the Spiritual Infant Fruits was most likely appear.
It was because the Monkey King Mountain had another name, which was the "Hundred Fruits Mountain." This place was rich in Spiritual Qi and unusual fruits covered the whole mountain. These were all Spiritual Fruits that could benefit martial arts training.
Only, this Monkey King Mountain was not an ownerless place. Since it was called Monkey King Mountain, this mountain was full of monkeys. These were extremely troublesome monkeys.
When he approached the Monkey King Mountain, Qin Wushuang took each step carefully. He knew that this mountain was full of different monkey spiritual beasts. They were all spiritual martial artists. Even those monkeys at the Perfect Stage also existed.
Qin Wushuang could not let down his guard even a bit when facing such a place.
This time, Qin Wushuang was extremely smart as he was not in a rush make a move. He considered Zhu Dazhong, this dangerous factor and was not in a rush to show himself. He must stay vigilant of any of Zhu Dazhong’s schemes.
That Zhu Dazhong was not a kind person. That day at the Spiral Valley, his performance made Qin Wushuang feel deeply suspicious. Only, he could not grasp his motive.
Of course, he would not let down his guard as he knew what kind of person Zhu Dazhong was.
To Qin Wushuang’s surprise, this area of the Monkey King Mountain had about two hundred elite warriors. They were all entrenched around the Monkey King Mountain, either in the dark or in the open area.
"Brother, quickly, follow me!"
"Bro, where?"
"That area at the West Mountain Flying Waterfall, I heard that Spiritual Infant Fruits had appeared there!"
"No way? Spiritual Infant Fruits? The legendary Spiritual Infant Fruits?"
...
"Spiritual Infant Fruits have appeared at the West Mountain Flying Waterfall, everyone, let’s go."
"Shoot, there are Spiritual Infant Fruits? Go quickly!"
Qin Wushuang paid close attention. This news had travelled everywhere and almost everyone had quickly rushed over there.
Apparently, the majority of the adventurers did not come for the Spiritual Infant Fruits. However, they all still looked forward to that Spiritual Infant Fruits. Everyone knew that fruit could repair your dantian, and increase the boundary of the dantian. By increasing the boundary of the dantian, it meant reconstructing your dantian and increase your potential.
If a person’s highest potential was reaching the Advanced Stage, then it would be no longer be an impossible matter to reach the Perfect Stage after consuming the Spiritual Infant Fruits!
Although Qin Wushuang’s mind was half suspicious and half believing, he was unwilling to ignore the opportunity. Regardless of whether it existed, it would not hurt to take a look.
If the Spiritual Infant Fruits did happen to appear there, wouldn’t it become his eternal regret if he had missed it?
When he thought there, Qin Wushuang also quickly rushed towards the location of the West Mountain Flying Waterfall. This waterfall was located in an extremely complex terrain. The waterfall was thirty thousand feet tall and the water plunged downward in an imposing manner. On the two sides was the rugged mountain road. To climb up the West Mountain, one must also have extraordinary climbing ability like an ape or monkey.
After Qin Wushuang had arrived at the West Mountain, he saw a group of people gathered together in the distance. These people all stood about a hundred metres on the exterior part of the flying waterfall and fixed their gaze on the waterfall.
"Boss, is the rumor of the Spiritual Infant Fruits real?"
"How should I know? Regardless of the rumors, we are already here. Shall we go in?"
This waterfall was like a hanging curtain. Beneath this curtain, there was an extremely deep cave. To enter this cave, one must pass through the flying waterfall.
Just as everyone remained hesitant, a wave of rapid torrent shot from the flying waterfall as a figure flew out. Indeed, it was that Young Master Zhao who shouted angrily: "The Spiritual Infant Fruits, someone had taken it!"
Among the adventurers, someone had seen this Young Master Zhao as they asked impatiently: "Who took it?"
Young Master Zhao said: "That kid is at a young age. He was wearing a body of green robes and appeared self-righteous. Back in the Spiral Valley, he was the leader. Many of you had seen him."
Young Master Zhao started to describe in details. In fact, he was describing Qin Wushuang’s appearance.
Qin Wushuang used his spiritual senses to listen to his words. Inwardly, he felt shocked. This Zhu Dazhong truly did not carry good intentions! He was making Qin Wushuang take the blame and using others to do the dirty work!
