Chapter 260 Chapter 260 The evil fox takes the fruit
When Hu Xie didn't come back in the evening, Shen Wanwan couldn't help but start to worry again.
Upon seeing this, Chuan Yun quickly said: "He told me that after going out today, he won't come back for the next few days."
Shen Wanwan was speechless, "Why did you just say it now?"
"Sorry, it was my mistake." Chuanyun apologized honestly.
Shen Wanwan didn't hold on to it, but looked at Chuan Yun curiously.
"Didn't you say you didn't know what he was doing during the day? But now I feel that you don't seem to be worried about anything happening to Hu Xie? Do you know something?"
Shen Wanwan asked with squinted eyes.
Chuan Yun quickly waved his hand, "I really don't know what Hu Xie went to do. But judging from his curiosity, if he hadn't encountered something that made him curious, he wouldn't have bothered like this."
Shen Wanwan agreed with Chuan Yun's words. Hu Xie, a vixen, always only spends time and thought on things that interest him.
Although Hu Xie was strong enough, Shen Wanwan listened to the roaring wind outside, and she felt that if she went out now, she would definitely be blown to pieces by the wind.
No matter how strong Hu Xie is, he doesn't know if he is in danger right now.
…
Hu Xie, who was worried by Shen Wanwan, was eating, drinking and having fun leisurely in the ice cave.
If Shen Wanwan saw this, he would definitely throw the remaining worries in his heart into the trash can.
Hu Xie's life here is much better than in Shen Wanwan's tavern. He doesn't have to endure the cold, and there are all kinds of fruits to eat.
Hu Xie spent the entire afternoon exploring the ice cave. The cave was very large, like a small underground world, in inverse proportion to the cold world outside.
It's warm as spring here, but bitingly cold outside.
And this heat does not come from a volcano, and this is not a crater.
Hu Xie is very strange, where does the heat here come from?
After not detecting anything all afternoon, Hu Xie put aside the problem and concentrated on waiting for the fruit of the tree across the lake to mature.
He had a hunch that if he could obtain this fruit, he would be able to break through the bottleneck of the Nascent Soul stage and advance to become a god.
This fruit has a strong attraction to him, and he doesn't know whether it is only for demon cultivators or all cultivators.
It's a pity that I can't bring Shen Wanwan and the others over for an experiment.
After all, it was so cold outside that even he couldn't bear it. With Shen Wanwan's small body, he would be frozen to ashes as soon as he went out!
***
The cold days were really unbearable, and five days passed in the blink of an eye.
The tavern had never received any business, so Shen Wanwan didn't care anymore.
What she was worried about now was that that guy Hu Xie ran away for several days and didn't come back. Don't let anything happen to him.
Chuan Yun reassured her that Hu Xie was fine.
At this time, Hu Xie was staring at the fruits on the tree with great interest underground in the ice cave.
The originally unripe fruits gradually matured one after another, exuding an alluring fragrance.
Hu Xie couldn't help but transform into a fox, staring at the fruits on the tree with bright eyes.
There was a string of drool left at the corner of his mouth!
It seems that this fruit is quite attractive to fox evil spirits!
When the first fruit was ripe, Hu Xie couldn't wait to bite the fruit into his mouth, chewed it twice and swallowed it.
Hu Xie, who had eaten the fruit, tilted his head. He could not taste anything just now.
And there was no change in his body. Could it be that his intuition was wrong? This fruit is actually not good for monsters.
After a while, he didn't feel anything wrong with his body, so he thought it was quantity that won the day, and ate several more fruits.
By the time he ate the eighth one, the whole fox started to burst into flames.
Hu Xie was rolling on the ground in discomfort. He felt that his body was about to be burned to ashes by the heat.
At this moment, Hu Xie didn't know that an ancient and mysterious pattern appeared on his face, but it flashed across his face and quickly disappeared again.
Hu Xie, who was in so much pain that he could no longer cry out, turned into a fox body for a while, and then into a human form for a while, and the cycle continued.
Eventually he passed out from the pain.
When he woke up faintly, he realized that the tavern would leave this world in another hour.
Hu Xie was shocked, quickly gathered some things, and then rushed towards the tavern.
…
In the tavern, Shen Wanwan was walking around. She didn't see Hu Xie come back during the day, so she couldn't help but worry that the vixen wouldn't be able to make it back in time.
When it got dark, she became even more anxious!
If that guy Hu Xie can't catch up, he will really be left here forever.
Unless he can tear apart the void, or wait for the tavern to land again, but this seems unlikely.
So she could only pray that Hu Xie would be back before midnight.
Chuanyun listened to the wind outside and began to worry for a while.
"He won't be able to catch up, right?"
"No!"
In the ice world late at night, the wind roared, and Hu Xie's entire fox burned, illuminating the dark and extremely cold night.
He ran quickly, using his fastest speed!
The time was getting closer to early morning, and now even Chuanyun was not calm anymore.
"What should I do? There are only ten minutes left!" Shen Wanwan asked anxiously.
"Why is this damn fox running around for nothing!" she muttered.
She wished that Hu Xie would appear in front of her quickly, and then she would definitely teach him a lesson.
The ten minutes were about to end, and Hu Xie finally saw the tavern.
However, a layer of mist had already begun to surround the tavern.
He speeded up and rushed in before the tavern disappeared.
With a "bang~" sound, Hu Xie fell into the tavern.
When Shen Wanwan and Chuan Yun saw each other, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Hu Xie also quickly changed from the fox body back to human form.
"I asked, where have you been these past few days? Chuan Yun and I thought you were freezing to death outside!"
Shen Wanwan put his hands on his hips and looked down at Hu Xie, who was sitting on the ground and panting.
"Hey~ I am so exhausted, please give me a glass of water!"
Hu Xie raised his hand to fan the wind, completely ignoring Shen Wanwan's cynicism.
After waiting for a long time, Hu Xie saw that no one was passing him water. When he looked up, he saw Chuan Yun and Shen Wanwan staring at him with their arms folded.
"I said, can you two let me have a drink of water before we talk?"
"No!" Shen Wanwan said coldly.
If Hu Xie didn't tell him clearly, they probably wouldn't let him go.
So I told him how he sensed the ice cave and went there to detect it.
"Alright! Alright! I'm catching up, isn't it? Come on, come on, I've brought you some good things."
Hu Xie's playful smile made Shen Wanwan scold him, even if he didn't scold him!
Finally, she sat down angrily to see what it was that could make him value her so much.
Hu Xie picked the remaining fruits from the tree and placed them on the table.
He smelled the fruity aroma and couldn't help but want to eat it.
Shen Wanwan and Chuan Yun didn't feel much about this fruit. At most, it smelled rather fragrant.
But it won't arouse appetite like Hu Xie.
"It seems that this fruit is useless for people to cultivate!" Seeing that the two of them were unmoved, Hu Xie knew that this fruit had little effect on them.
He didn't know what kind of fruit it was, so he asked Shen Wanwan to help him identify it.
