Chapter 1885 - 1880: Taking Full Responsibility

They thought about it seriously.

Soon, they gently shook their heads.

They really didn’t have anything to take with them because they weren’t particularly adept at collecting things.

So there really wasn’t much worth taking...

Seeing them shake their little heads quickly, Xiaobei smiled gently, "Since there’s nothing, let’s not waste time. Let’s go directly!"

"Okay!"

Guaiguai and Qiaoqiao exchanged smiles and nodded lightly...

...

"Master, are we going back now? Don’t we need to look for herbs?"

After quickly jumping onto Xiaobei’s shoulder, Treasure-hunting Rabbit muttered softly.

He still remembered the purpose of coming here with Xiaobei was to collect herbs...

So, he wanted to remind Xiaobei not to forget the main task.

Upon hearing his words, Xiaobei glanced at Treasure-hunting Rabbit and smiled indifferently, "We’ve already found them. Their blood, being Yao Ling, has extraordinary effects. So as long as they are willing to come back with us and offer a few drops of their blood, everything will be settled."

"Is that so? That’s really great!"

Treasure-hunting Rabbit squinted his eyes and nodded gently...

After speaking with him, Xiaobei looked at them again.

At this moment, Xiaobei couldn’t let them change their minds, or else it would be troublesome...

But fortunately, they were in good spirits and didn’t seem to have any intention of changing their minds.

"Xiaobei brother, can we come back here again in the future?"

"Yes indeed!"

Hearing their somewhat nervous question, Xiaobei smiled gently and said, "Of course, as long as you want, you can come back at any time!"

Xiaobei knew they had lived here for a long time and developed feelings for this place...

Therefore, if they were told they could never return, they would surely resist it.

"That’s good, that’s good!"

They exhaled a long sigh of relief...

Seeing them so happy, Xiaobei suggested again, "Alright, let’s go!"

"Okay!"

...

"Why haven’t they returned yet, could something have happened?"

On top of the cliff, the old Family Head of Cao Family paced back and forth anxiously.

At first, he was very calm.

As time passed, his calmness gradually faded...

Now, he couldn’t stay calm anymore.

Because there wasn’t a single sound.

"Should I do something?"

Struggling with this thought, he walked two steps toward the edge of the cliff...

He wanted to go down directly, but he didn’t dare...

Because he knew that being called a Forbidden Land, it wasn’t a place he could approach.

"Better to keep waiting here a while longer!"

After this thought appeared, he took a deep breath and sat down quietly again.

As soon as he sat down, he heard a faint sound.

Quickly, he looked ahead.

But he didn’t see anyone appear.

"Could it have been an illusion?"

After looking a few more times, he frowned slightly...

Soon, he confirmed it wasn’t an illusion because Xiaobei, who had disappeared earlier, was back here.

"He’s back, he’s back, he’s back!"

Seeing Xiaobei appear, he smiled excitedly...

Soon, he realized this time Xiaobei wasn’t alone...

Because after Xiaobei settled down, footsteps could be heard approaching.

"Could it be pursuers?"

This thought popped into his mind, and he became fully alert.

But soon, he realized he was overthinking because Xiaobei was completely unperturbed.

Just as he was about to ask, he saw two cute girls with ponytails walking over.

"Xiaobei brother, this road is too difficult to walk!"

"Exactly, our feet are almost twisted."

Hearing this, Xiaobei smiled gently and said, "Well, nothing can be done, this is the only road. Wait, it’s not exactly the only road, but this is the only path we can take."

Xiaobei knew Treasure-hunting Rabbit took another path.

So there should still be other roads, just that Xiaobei wasn’t aware of them...

"Then it seems we’ll have to find a way to fix this road in the future!"

Hearing them speak seriously, Xiaobei raised an eyebrow and said, "Kenghuo will handle this for you."

"Me?"

Kenghuo’s eyelid twitched fiercely upon hearing Xiaobei’s words.

He had been lying on Xiaobei’s shoulder all this time, but even so, he knew this road was really difficult, and so he understood the difficulties in fixing it.

Seeing Treasure-hunting Rabbit’s unwillingness, Xiaobei squinted his eyes and said calmly, "Yes, this task shouldn’t be difficult for you, right? So, I believe you can easily manage it, isn’t that so?"

"Well... certainly, it’s no big deal for me."

Even though he knew it was a tough task, he quickly took on the responsibility, understanding that otherwise, it would be really bothersome.

Smiling with satisfaction, Xiaobei praised quickly, "Nice! At crucial times, you’re still the most reliable!"

Receiving Xiaobei’s praise, he gently rubbed his forehead...

To be honest, if given a choice, he would rather not be praised...

...

"You’re finally back, that’s great, great!"

Hearing this excited exclamation, Xiaobei glanced at him and said, "Earlier, I must have worried you."

Xiaobei knew he hadn’t left this place previously...

Regarding this point, Xiaobei felt very touched, so at this moment, his tone wasn’t as cold.

"It’s nothing, it’s nothing!"

Speaking quickly, he looked at the two identical girls standing behind Xiaobei and asked, "Who are they?"

Glancing at Guaiguai and Qiaoqiao, Xiaobei waved his hand and said vaguely, "I found them in the Forbidden Land. This matter is quite complicated, so I won’t go into details with you."

"Oh!"

Being astute, he didn’t press further, but quickly changed the topic, "How about the Forbidden Land, is it terrifying?"

"It’s definitely not a place you can easily access!"

Xiaobei thought for a moment and responded with his remarks.

Xiaobei wasn’t kidding at this time because it truly was terrifying there.

The fact that he managed to go in and out successfully wasn’t because it wasn’t terrifying, it just proved his strength was very high.

"I understand!"

Hearing Xiaobei’s earnest words, he nodded quickly.

Previously, he had some interest in it; now all his interest had completely dissipated.

Knowing he wouldn’t have any issues for a while, Xiaobei spoke softly, "Alright, I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll leave for now! I truly appreciate everything today, after I resolve my matters, I will completely clear the toxins from your body."

"Okay! I..."

Before he could finish, a soft voice interrupted, "Grandpa, are you poisoned?"
