Chapter 89: Addicted
Leng Rongrong won first place at the racecourse and saved a person from dying. After receiving a sum of money, she went to other venues to have fun.
The more she played, the more addicted she became.
As a result, Leng Rongrong had gone through almost all the events on the island.
In front of everyone’s dumbfounded eyes, Leng Rongrong won first place in various competitions. After that, she became bored.
The sky gradually darkened.
Leng Rongrong remembered that she had yet to help the one-eyed horse find the immortal herb, so she asked Xiao Yuan, “Is…there truly such a cliff?”
“It’s true.” Xiao Yuan nodded. “I’ve been to the cliff you mentioned. There’s indeed a kind of grass that looks very special. Do you recognize that grass? Do you want that grass?”
“I don’t, but I want to pick some,” Leng Rongrong said thoughtfully.
Since she had promised it, she naturally had to do it.
She had always been a person who kept her promises, especially to small animals.
“Pick some?” Xiao Yuan looked at Leng Rongrong in disbelief. “You must be joking. The grass grows on the cliff, and it’s very difficult to pick it. In fact, it’s impossible to pick it. It’s better to just take a look at it.”
Leng Rongrong was tight-lipped.
She knew it would be difficult, but she had to take it.
“Are you sure it’s in that direction?” Leng Rongrong pointed in the direction where Xiao Yuan had pointed out and prepared to go there to search for the immortal herb.
It was already evening, and if she didn’t go pick the immortal herb, the sky would turn completely dark.
Xiao Yuan nodded and then watched as Leng Rongrong continuously walked in that direction.
He hurriedly chased after her.
“Master, are you really going to search for that grass? Why are you searching for that grass? Was there any important use for the grass? Can’t you use something else to replace it? That’s a cliff! I know you’re strong, but it’s also very dangerous!”
Leng Rongrong did not say anything and walked towards the cliff.
She just wanted to find the immortal herb as soon as possible and get it.
It was getting late, and it would be dark if she delayed any longer.
She had promised the one-eyed horse that she would get the immortal herb today, so she naturally had to get it now.
Also, she didn’t know how Little Nanyu was doing.
The meeting couldn’t have gone on for an entire day, right? The little guy might have already returned to the villa. She hadn’t seen the little one for a day, but she still missed him for some reason.
All she wanted was to get some of the immortal herbs and go back to see the little one.
At the thought of this, Leng Rongrong’s pace quickened.
Xiao Yuan was practically jogging to Leng Rongrong’s side. “Master, can you slow down? How can you walk so fast? Your legs don’t look very long!”
“So, you’re saying that my legs are short?”
Leng Rongrong turned around and narrowed her eyes. She directed a murderous look at him.
Xiao Yuan swallowed his saliva and explained nervously, “Of course, not. Master has long legs. How can she have short legs? My legs are too short, that’s why I can’t catch up with Master!”
Leng Rongrong quickened her pace, and Xiao Yuan wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.
The two of them quickly arrived at a place where there was no one around. There was also a sign that said, “Unauthorized people are not allowed to enter.”
Xiao Yuan shrugged his shoulders. “Master, it seems like you can’t go in. This is a forbidden area on the island now.”
Leng Rongrong was speechless. She threw a glance at Xiao Yuan. “I’ll still have to go up, I haven’t gotten the immortal herb yet!”
“Master, Lord Four will be angry if you go in. As you know, the ruler of the Nether Abyss Empire has always had a bad temper.” Xiao Yuan blinked and tried his best to persuade Leng Rongrong.
However, Leng Rongrong walked up the stone steps without a second word.
Xiao Yuan was speechless.
Just as he was hesitant whether to give a chase or not, Leng Rongrong had already climbed up far away.
Xiao Yuan rubbed his eyes and felt as if he was seeing things. How could she climb so quickly? In the blink of an eye, she seemed to have climbed more than a hundred steps.
Should he chase?
Should he stop going after her?
Xiao Yuan was at a loss. He knew that this was Lord Four’s forbidden area, so it didn’t seem appropriate to continue chasing.
With Lord Four’s personality, whoever had stepped into the place without his permission would die a terrible death.
However, he could not stop Leng Rongrong.
So, if he chased, he would die a terrible death, but if he didn’t, his master would be the one suffering a horrific fate!
Xiao Yuan only hesitated for a few minutes, and when he looked up again, Leng Rongrong had already disappeared.
Xiao Yuan was speechless.
Forget it, he won’t chase her anymore. He would find someone to help him.
Who knew if Lord Four had raised some strange creatures here again since this place had suddenly become a forbidden area…
Lord Four had many pets on the Nether Abyss Empire Island. His pets were rather special, such as man-eating tigers and crocodiles that could tear people apart. They were all relatively common.
There were also giant bats, giant chameleons, terrifying venomous snakes, venomous spiders, and the likes, which were even more terrifying. They could kill a person with a single blow.
He knew that Leng Rongrong was greatly skilled, but this place might be breeding some poisonous insects or something similar. If Leng Rongrong truly barged in, he did not know what would happen.
Hence, Xiao Yuan still chose to seek help.
Xiao Yuan turned around and left while Leng Rongrong followed the steps up. It did not take long for her to find the cliff.
It was truly a very steep cliff. Looking down, it was so deep that one couldn’t see the bottom. It made one feel nervous.
After Leng Rongrong took a few looks, she began to search for the immortal herb that the one-eyed horse had mentioned.
Her line of sight swept back and forth across the cliff, and then Leng Rongrong saw the immortal herb.
The one-eyed horse was referring to the immortal herb that looked a little like the flower leaves of an orchid. Whether it was day or night, the leaves would have condensed dew. The crystal clear dew made the entire herb look like it had a divine aura. It was indeed something that only immortals could have.
It was just that the position of the grass’ head was really difficult to get, and Leng Rongrong had initially thought that it would be a little tough to get it.
But looking at it now, it wasn’t just slightly strenuous.
It wouldn’t be easy to climb down the cliff.
Especially on this cliff, there was no place to land at all. If she was not careful, she would directly fall and shatter her bones.
No wonder that guy didn’t come out to eat by himself. Even if he did, he wouldn’t be able to eat!
Leng Rongrong pursed her lips, feeling a little helpless.
But since she was already here, she couldn’t just leave without taking anything, right?
Leng Rongrong gauged the distance, then roughly calculated in her heart where she would have to be to get it.
After making sure, Leng Rongrong pressed the bracelet on her wrist, and a nail suddenly shot out of the silver bracelet. The nail was very thin, and in an instant, it was deeply embedded into a rock on the ground.
The nail was connected by a steel wire that was as thin as silk and almost invisible to the naked eye.
Although the steel wire was very thin, it was very powerful and could bear a thousand pounds.
