Chapter 495: Chapter 496 Decision to Travel_1

"Do I understand?"

Mo Li was somewhat puzzled, after all, it was common knowledge that the White Wolf Deity had been injured by the national guardian Flame Dragon, and it even seemed that because of this incident, the White Wolf Deity hardly ever left Wolf Mountain Hall, squatting within it day in and day out.

"I believe the national guardian Flame Dragon must have discovered something, otherwise they wouldn’t be so wary of Wolf Mountain Hall."

Though Hua Yiyou wasn’t quite clear on the stance of the King of Great Li towards Wolf Mountain Hall, just knowing that Wolf Mountain Hall hardly obeyed the directives of the Great Li Dynasty was enough to make a rough guess at the truth, after all, even the other temples that were as famous among the folks as Wolf Mountain Hall, would have to obediently comply when faced with the orders from the Great Li Dynasty.

Wolf Mountain Hall? After being ignored by it a few times, the Great Li Dynasty had already given up, and if it weren’t for Wolf Mountain Hall firmly guarding its gates and having almost no involvement with the common folk, the King of Great Li would have probably tried to eliminate Wolf Mountain Hall long ago.

Remembering the love-hate stance his father held towards Wolf Mountain Hall, Mo Li sighed and said,

"I hadn’t expected this to be the case."

"So..."

Giving a glance at Mo Ling who was a bit excited, Hua Yiyou smiled and shook his head, saying,

"No, if he hasn’t openly offered his help, that at the very least means that for whatever reason, the White Wolf Deity might not directly intervene in our affairs."

"But..."

"We don’t know his standing in the heart of the White Wolf Deity, but please don’t always think about scheming against friends around you, that’s not a good habit."

With a stern warning to Mo Ling, Hua Yiyou watched as Mo Ling shrank his neck and said a bit aggrievedly,

"I wasn’t talking about scheming against him, is it wrong to ask him for a little help?"

"He surely has his own considerations, him, I cannot see through."

Hua Yiyou said calmly, as Mo Li sighed and looking at Mo Ling, said,

"If he were to help, he’d take the initiative, but... I know you’ve been close to Yao Yin, yet she might not truly understand him."

Mo Li stepped forward and smiled as he reached out his hand to gently touch Mo Ling’s head, whispering,

"Would you like to go out and see it? I know you’ve been looking forward to it for a long time."

After a moment of silence, Mo Ling showed a smile and said,

"Sure."

Seeing that Mo Li had made up his mind, Hu Weng thought for a moment before speaking,

"If you are going out, it’s best to let them know, if he accompanies you, you’ll at least be a bit safer, don’t forget that there are quite a few people secretly watching you."

"Are you planning to travel?"

Looking at Mo Li and Mo Ling in surprise, Feng Yuan remarked, while Hua Yiyou gave a faint smile and said,

"Don’t you think that Your Highness’s side has too few... Spirit Beasts?"

"Then where do you plan to go? Don’t tell me you’re planning to travel the entire Divine Land Region. Without a powerful Spirit Beast mount, you would never accomplish that, and besides, do you think they will give you the chance to wander and enjoy the scenery?"

Lowering his voice, Hua Yiyou quietly said into Feng Yuan’s ear,

"We plan to focus their attention on the Bei Ding Domain, using this opportunity..."

After listening to the brief plan outlined by Hua Yiyou, Feng Yuan folded his arms and after a moment of silence said,

"Will they agree?"

"We are not forcing them, they are joining this mission voluntarily, after all, they are responsible for the destruction caused in Yongning..."

"Alright, I’ll join your action. Are you coming too?"

Seeing Feng Yuan looking at him, Guo Huai laughed and said,

"Where else would I go if not with you?"

Seeing Feng Yuan agreeing to join the action, Hua Yiyou smiled slightly and said,

"We plan to head to the Chiyun Mountain Range first. If we can secure the assistance of the God of Ore, we’ll not only increase our strength but also secure a stable source of ore."

Looking at Hua Yiyou, Feng Yuan said with some amusement,

"If you’re planning to find Carnas, forget about it. Didn’t they send people to harass them before? To settle things once and for all, I’ve already relocated them."

Seeing Hua Yiyou and the others appearing somewhat unreconciled, Feng Yuan leaned on the table and said,

"They shouldn’t be dragged into our human conflicts; they are special beings."

"Of course, when I refer to Karnas and Carnas, I mean that although there are other special Spirit Beasts besides them, I believe you won’t find them so easily."

"They... are they very special?"

Hua Yiyou hesitated, for he hadn’t expected these Ore Gods to be quite exceptional, but then again, recalling that Dream-Eating Spirit had not informed him about the situation of the Ore Gods, perhaps it was because they were special, and Dream-Eating Spirit didn’t want them disturbed.

"In terms of importance, they are almost at the level of Divine Beasts, but their strength is not quite on par with Divine Beasts."

Feng Yuan spoke calmly. Upon hearing his explanation, Hua Yiyou immediately decided to give up on the idea of seeking the God of Ore. Mo Ling stepped forward, fixing her gaze on Feng Yuan, and said,

"Then where do you think we should go?"

"I don’t know. The decision of where to go should be made by you, not me."

"What’s your suggestion? I don’t know where to find powerful Divine Lords."

Mo Li looked at Feng Yuan and waved her index finger. Feng Yuan scooped up Xiao Ji, who was passing by his feet, and held it up to his chest, saying,

"What do you think it is?"

"A Divine Lord."

Mo Li looked at Feng Yuan with some confusion, gently stroking Xiao Ji’s head to soothe the slightly disgruntled little creature. Feng Yuan slowly said,

"Do you think they have their own thoughts? How would you feel if you were living well on your own somewhere and suddenly someone popped up hoping you would help them?"

"This..."

After tapping the forehead of her own Xiao Ji, Feng Yuan said with a smile,

"They are both easy and difficult to deal with. If you can truly befriend them, they will follow you always, but if you are only thinking of using them..."

Feng Yuan didn’t finish what he was saying, knowing they would understand. Hua Yiyou sighed and looked at Feng Yuan, asking,

"So, what should we do?"

"Leave it to fate. Although it’s not impossible to force the issue, I believe you wouldn’t accept such an approach."

"Leave it to fate, huh..."

Mo Li said, looking at Mo Ling,

"Then you decide where to go."

"This... You suddenly putting the decision on me is too..."

Mo Ling hesitated, worried that if she chose the wrong place, Mo Li wouldn’t be able to find a powerful Divine Lord. Mo Li seemed to understand Mo Ling’s concern and smiled slightly, saying,

"Since we don’t have a better idea anyway, how about we just pick a place at random?"

As Yao Yin was about to speak, Feng Yuan shook his head at her, saying,

"Let them decide for themselves."

Turning to Mo Li and the others, Feng Yuan said,

"If you came to me just for this, then I understand."

"Why are you like this!"

Yao Yin said somewhat discontentedly to Feng Yuan, obviously picking up on the hint that he was seeing them off. Mo Li laughed and said,

"Then I’ll take my leave first."

"Just let me know before you decide to set out. Xiao Ji, get ready to take a bath."

Upon hearing Feng Yuan’s words, Xiao Ji quickly leaped from his hands and rushed out through the door Mo Li had opened, bounding away. Scratching his head, Feng Yuan said somewhat helplessly,

"This guy, still so averse to baths, even though they’re so comfortable."

The phantasm of Agunas glanced at Feng Yuan and said with annoyance,

"No matter what, Xiao Ji is still a bird-type Spirit Beast, inherently not fond of water. What can you expect?"

"Psh, the Vermilion Bird often goes to play in the water. Hey, what if we brought the Vermilion Bird and the others here? How about that?"

"Not a great idea. Are you sure that won’t cause a huge deviation in history?"

Guo Huai said with some doubt,

"As far as I remember, Mo Li didn’t have many Spirit Beasts with him in the historical records. Suddenly letting him go out to search for Spirit Beasts now, could it be..."

"Ding~

Task released,

Task objective: assist Mo Li in finding more types of Spirit Beasts.

Task reward:

Several Dream-Eating Spirit evolution materials."

(Why are you suddenly releasing a task now? Can you really give out that reward?)

Guo Huai couldn’t help his skepticism, as his beggar-version system had hardly ever offered an actual item as a reward. It was mostly knowledge, and not even direct impartation; he had to learn and master it on his own.
