Chapter 1274
Upon hearing Matthew's words, everyone from Bainbridge frowned at once.
Rose darted a scornful look at Matthew, saying, "What a pair of ignorant, big- headed small fry! Well, they're asking for it.Since they have a death wish, let's grant it!"
Everyone else from Bainbridge sneered as well.
To them, Matthew was simply courting death! They ignored Matthew and the crown prince and continued to go forward.
With that, they walked about 300 meters before a red light suddenly appeared ahead of them.
"We're almost there!" Matthew whispered.
Everyone quickly moved on.
After they came round a corner, a large cave appeared before them.
It was so hot inside the cave that everyone felt their skin burning, and in the middle of the cave was a huge, deep pit, in which there was a pool of boiling water that kept bubbling.
The rocky walls surrounding the deep pit were glittering faintly in red —the source of the red light everyone had seen just now.
After getting closer, everyone finally realized that the red glitter on the rocky walls was actually some red liquid.
A person cried out, "T-This seems to be lava!"
Everyone else was also shocked after they took a closer look.
As expected, the red liquid on the rocky walls was lava.
"No wonder it's so hot here!" commented the young man from earlier with a sigh.
Quincy ignored them, though; his attention was mostly centered on the pool.
Next to the pool were a number of thick volcanic rocks, on which close to a hundred Seven-Leafed Lotuses grew densely.
At the sight of the scene, the crown prince gave a cry of wonder.
Any of these Seven-Leafed Lotuses was of inestimable worth.
With so many Seven-Leafed Lotuses, he was really going to get rich! He turned to look at Silas, saying, "Hey, Silas.Since I took a Seven- Leafed Lotus from you last time, I'll give you two in return.Is this OK with you?"
Silas didn't seem to hear him, though.He stared fixedly at the pool of water with wild excitement in his eyes.
Quincy darted a glance at them.
Suddenly, he said with a laugh, "Prince, since we're here together, let's share these herbs among us! How about this? Let's draw the boundary here.The Seven-Leafed Lotuses over here will be ours, whereas those over there will be yours.What do you think?"
The crown prince glanced at the area Quincy pointed at.Well, this old geezer's quite fair in dividing the herbs, he thought.
"No problem!"
He nodded in agreement.
However, just as he was about to step forward to collect the herbs, Matthew grabbed him.
"Don't go there yet!" he whispered.
The crown prince asked curiously, "Why?"
Matthew looked at their surroundings.
Then, he whispered, "The guardian beast has yet to appear"
The crown prince was surprised.
"The guardian beast? Didn't we just see the guardian beasts earlier?"
Matthew shook his head.
"Those snakes aren't really guardian beasts; they can only be considered offsprings of the guardian beast.I suspect that the guardian beast is nearby.He purposely divided the area and let you collect the herbs to lure the guardian beast out!"
The crown prince was taken aback before his face turned livid all at once.
"F*ck that old geezer! He's so cunning!"
Seeing that Matthew and the others didn't make a move, Quincy pretended to ask, "Why don't you guys collect the herbs?"
The crown prince shot back indignantly, "Why don't you go collect the herbs instead?"
Quincy's expression changed slightly.
The next instant, he replied with a smile, "It's too hot here, so our young lady needs some rest.It's okay; you guys may go ahead on your own.It's fine as long as we get out of here together later on."
The crown prince sneered.
"I need a break too.Let's each take our time, then! There's no hurry!" Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Quincy knitted his brows.
Then, as he gave the crown prince and Matthew a long, meaningful stare, his expression slowly turned sullen.He realized that these two people weren't that gullible.
It probably won't be easy to use them as bait to lure out the guardian beast, he thought.
After pondering for a moment, he suddenly shot a glance at the young man next to him.The young man nodded before stepping forward at once.
"F*ck, we're already nice enough in letting you in.Since you don't want to collect the herbs, then get out of here!"
