Chapter 1553: Sudden Strike! Everyone Feels They Got the Better Deal!
Two more months passed in the blink of an eye.
The search for the Extinction Phoenix yielded no progress whatsoever.
When night fell, Elder Yun tucked back her long hair and said to Su Yang, "Su Yang, let's find a place to rest!"
"Alright!"
Even a Divine-tier Beast Tamer isn't made of iron; they need rest too.
They had already gone five days without rest.
Su Yang blasted through the rock, hollowing out a spacious cave hall, then carved out two rooms.
Elder Yun casually arranged ice blocks inside the cave to lower the temperature.
She took blankets from her spatial ring and spread them on the ground, set cushions on the stone chairs, and even brought out many exquisite fruits and pastries to arrange on the stone table.
It was clear that Elder Yun had come fully prepared for this trip.
"Eat!"
She sat in the chair and propped her two long legs up on the stone table.
Against Su Yang, she let down her guard completely.
Su Yang had grown used to her manner as well; the two of them had been together for nearly three months now.
In this desolate world, everyone had grown accustomed to one another, as familiar as could be.
Biting into a jade-green fruit, Elder Yun sighed, "Three whole months, and still nothing to show for it!"
Su Yang naturally knew why they had nothing to show for it.
Still, he offered encouragement: "Let's keep looking!"
Elder Yun truly had nothing to show for it, but Su Yang was different.
Over these three months, he had slain countless fierce beasts, and Elder Yan Mo's experience points had been climbing steadily.
Su Yang figured that if he kept at it for another three months, Elder Yan Mo would surely become a Divine Beast too.
After all, Elder Yan Mo didn't have a double experience card, and hunting efficiency couldn't compare to the Hell Blood Vine Flower.
As long as he could see the experience bar inching upward, Su Yang could grind!
Grind until the end of time!
Grind until he had a full roster of Divine Beasts and could bulldoze his way through the Beast Tamer Great World!
This kind of passion is something people who don't play games could never understand.
Hearing Su Yang's encouragement, Elder Yun slumped in the stone chair and laughed.
She called softly, "Su Yang!"
"Mm?"
"These three months, thank goodness you were here with me!"
With me?
How does that count as "with me"?
Isn't this just work?
That single word "with" made Su Yang feel his entire stature had dropped a notch.
"Can you drink?"
"I can drink!"
Su Yang certainly couldn't admit he couldn't.
A Divine-tier Beast Tamer who can't drink would be a laughingstock.
"Keep me company for a drink!"
"Mm!"
Elder Yun produced a pot of wine and two white jade cups, personally pouring for Su Yang.
The wine Elder Yun brought out was naturally extraordinary.
The fine wine in the cup shimmered with a hazy white mist, and the fragrance of the liquor drifted through the cave.
"Have a taste!"
He took a small sip; the fine wine carried a faint, subtle flavor, wonderfully smooth on the palate.
"How is it?"
Elder Yun looked at Su Yang.
