Chapter 509: Qin He Has Good Fortune
Rong Yan glanced at the Flame Beast and killed it with a single sword strike: "How could it be killed so easily?"
Rong Yan glared at Lin Yao: "Didn't lightning strike you?"
"The summoned magic treasure is powerful." Lin Yao explained briefly, walked back to Qin Bi's side, and stared at the small tea bowl she held. It was truly a tiny bowl with no patterns drawn on it: "It actually has no patterns?"
Qin Bi was delighted and slowly broke into a smile: "As long as the lightning can suppress the Flame Beast, that's enough."
"What?" Qin Lang and Rong Yan ran over, staring with great curiosity at the small tea bowl Qin Bi held. Qin Lang asked: "Lightning that can suppress the Flame Beast? This small magic treasure has no patterns drawn on it."
While they spoke, Qin Tan, Qin Di, and the others walked over.
Qin Tan took the Flame Beast from Rong Yan's hands, examined it for a long time, but could see nothing special. It must be that the summoned magic treasure was powerful. Qin Tan looked again at the small tea bowl Qin Bi held, and excitement flashed in her eyes.
"Find another Flame Beast to test." Qin Tan said: "These pale gray Flame Beasts are only at the low combat stage. Their fighting relies on lightning. Without lightning, anyone who isn't a waste can kill a Flame Beast."
The third branch's young illegitimate son scanned the crowd and felt he was the weakest in physical strength.
Fortunately, cousin Qin Bi had been with the third branch for several years, so their bond was different. Without this connection, cousin Qin Bi might not have liked him following along. The young illegitimate son could clearly feel Qin Bi's closeness to the people of the third branch.
Lin Yao pointed to a few small creatures in the distance: "There are a few Flame Beasts over there. Do not cancel the summoning."
Qin Bi nodded. There was no other reason; everyone worried that if the summoning was canceled, the lightning of the Flame Beasts could no longer be suppressed. The small tea bowl with no patterns was truly something that even Lin Yao and Qin Tan could not discern the grade of.
Qin Bi held the small tea bowl to find a Flame Beast. Rong Yan instructed: "Just a pale gray one will do. Those with nicer colors have higher combat stages. We can't defeat them, so don't get trapped. Among our group, only Advisor Lin and County Magistrate Qin have high cultivation bases."
Jiang Xu led the way, with Qin Xun accompanying him.
Not far away, they saw two Flame Beasts by the rocks. Qin Bi glanced over and saw another pale gray Flame Beast among the low-lying plants. This one was smaller and was scratching at the soil.
About thirty meters away, there were two more Flame Beasts, both pale gray with low combat stages. Several of them were leaping on the rocks, searching for something. As Qin Tan's group approached, one Flame Beast crackled as it condensed lightning.
Everyone grew tense and held their breath, watching Qin Bi.
Holding the summoned magic treasure, Qin Bi waved one hand. Suddenly, the lightning vanished. The Flame Beast looked down at its paws in confusion, while the other Flame Beasts did not notice this one's situation.
"It can actually suppress the lightning??!?" Lin Yao was overjoyed: "Jiang Xu, Qin Xun."
Jiang Xu and Qin Xun rushed over and killed the Flame Beast with a single sword strike. Qin Bi continued to hold the summoned magic treasure to suppress the lightning of the other Flame Beasts. Lin Yao protected her while the others went to kill the Flame Beasts.
In about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, they killed four pale gray Flame Beasts.
Qin Tang and the others returned carrying the Flame Beasts, all casting wary glances at the cultivation team in the distance. This was a small space within the Beast Realm; killing others to seize treasures was common. A summoned magic treasure capable of suppressing lightning was very conspicuous.
Fortunately, the distance was great enough. As the group returned, Qin Tan said: "Let's move further away."
"Yes." Lin Yao agreed: "Don't let anyone know we have a summoned magic treasure that suppresses lightning."
If other cultivation teams found out, even Lin Yao could not protect the magic treasure. So, everyone deliberately walked further away, increasing the distance from the cultivation team. The terrain here was flat. As they walked, Qin Bi held the summoned magic treasure.
When they saw a pale gray Flame Beast, Qin Bi used the small tea bowl to suppress its lightning, and the others rushed over to kill it. As dusk approached, they saw a group of Flame Beasts and dared not attack.
This group had about twenty beasts. Killing so many at once was beyond their cultivation capacity. Those with low cultivation bases were also timid and dared not attempt to kill so many Flame Beasts. The sky was growing dark.
"How many have we killed?" Qin Bi asked Qin Xun.
Qin Xun stored one of the killed Flame Beasts: "Twenty-one."
Qin Lang grinned: "That's enough to make small boots for Rong Juan and Rong Chi, with some left over. There are also small flame scales; the children will love playing with them. Sister, do you want to explode one? It's almost dark."
Qin Bi's heart was not her master god; she had exploded one before, and Qin Lang remembered it.
Qin Bi dared not put away the small tea bowl. She grabbed the handle, took the flint, and Qin Xun placed a small flame scale in position. He did not leave but waited for Qin Bi to come over and ignite it before they retreated together.
"Bang!" The small flame scale made quite a noise.
Qin Bi felt it wasn't enough: "Let's explode a few more. I hope we can still suppress the lightning of the Flame Beasts tomorrow."
This was a fictional cultivation world centered on fortune and luck. Hearing this, Qin Xun and Qin Lang placed several more small flame scales, all for good luck.
Qin Bi exploded a few more, and everyone stored the beasts they had killed.
Qin Bi had to put away the small tea bowl. Qin Di sighed; if they could kill Flame Beasts at night, it would be wonderful. They could at least have a decent Red Flame Festival. The group turned back, and Qin Tan led them to find the cultivation team.
They found the cultivation team, built a fire, and prepared to eat.
Su He Shizi saw they hadn't killed any beasts and brought over a piece of beast meat: "We've collected enough from this area. Tomorrow our team is going elsewhere. If you need anything, use the summoned magic treasure to send a message."
Qin Tan did not want the Su family's team to leave, but for major cultivation families, there was no need to stay in a place with no gains. After a brief chat, Su He Shizi returned.
Jiang Xu and Rong Yan roasted the beast meat, while the third branch's young illegitimate son assisted.
Cui Er Young Master also came over to rest. Seeing the people of Qin Yan Hou Fu, he walked over: "Qin Jue and Qin He are also collecting things, right? Why aren't they with you?"
Immediately after asking, Cui Er Young Master regretted it. The fourth branch disliked Qin He and treated her poorly. Why mention her? Even Qin Tan of the third branch did not necessarily like Qin He.
"We are a small team; Qin He might not be willing to be with us." Qin Tan said: "Qin He is with Qin Yan. When we set out, Qin Yan hadn't yet chosen a Beast Realm small space."
"Qin He has good fortune." Cui Er Young Master nodded: "It probably requires Qin He to choose."
Qin Tan couldn't help but ask: "Why didn't you team up with Qin He? Among our families, Qin He has the best fortune. The Beast Realm small space she chooses is certainly not bad."
Cui Er Young Master glanced lightly toward the distance, where the sky had already darkened: "This Beast Realm small space is quite good."
"You should have asked Qin He to choose for you." Qin Tan said with slight regret.
Cui Er Young Master did not take up the topic. Qin He's good fortune was her own business; the Cui clan would not follow Qin He around to collect things.
