Jiang Fan touched his nose and said, “I’d better not say.”
He almost got Hua Xin killed.
Feeling a bit guilty inside.
And truly couldn’t bear to hit her with more disappointment.
Yet Hua Xin gritted her teeth slightly and said, “Just say it, let me give up on it.”
“I really want to know, where on earth is that bell hidden, no matter how hard I think, I can’t find it.”
“I’ve searched the tenth layer thoroughly, except for the Forbidden Land and the lairs of a few incredibly powerful beasts.”
Jiang Fan coughed dryly and said, “Alright.”
“You insisted on asking, don’t blame me then.”
“This bell came about like this…”
He told her the events of that day exactly as they were.
Hua Xin listened.
She was stunned in place: “Are you saying this Hell Soul Bell is in the stomach of a one-aperture Hell Creature?”
“And the reason you got it…”
“Is because you took my Tiger Talisman Yin Marrow, and it submitted to you, obediently gave you the Hell Soul Bell?”
Jiang Fan nodded: “Yes.”
Hua Xin said dumbfounded, “So if you hadn’t stolen my Tiger Talisman Yin Marrow.”
“It would have submitted to me and handed the bell over?”
Jiang Fan cleared his throat: “It should have.”
Hua Xin clenched her fists tightly, hair standing on end, smacking the Ghost Soul Crystal fiercely:
“In other words.”
“You stole the bell that should have been mine?”
Jiang Fan touched his nose: “Don’t speak so distant.”
“We’re family now.”
“Why quarrel over trivial things?”
Hua Xin screamed in frustration: “Jiang Fan!”
“You dog…”
Before her voice could break his eardrums, Jiang Fan swiped a finger across the Crystal Ghost.
Manually muted her.
Then looked at the Double-headed Hellhound and said, “See what you’ve done.”
“Made her so angry?”
The Double-headed Hellhound seemed to understand Jiang Fan’s words and widened its eyes.
Wait.
Wasn’t she scolding you?
Jiang Fan frowned and said, “Didn’t you hear her say ‘dog’?”
“If not you, then who else?”
The two heads of the Double-headed Hellhound exchanged a glance and started pondering.
Seems like they were indeed being scolded.
After all, the hellhound is also a dog!
Ding ding dang—
Jiang Fan shook the Hell Soul Bell again.
The Double-headed Hellhound immediately lay on the ground, stuck its tongue out, and wagged its tail.
As if recognizing its master.
No connection to its previously fierce and terrifying appearance at all.
Jiang Fan couldn’t help but smile slightly.
“In light of this, traversing the tenth layer shouldn’t be a problem at all.”
Riding the Double-headed Hellhound should save a lot of trouble, right?
Of course.
Before leaving, he also cleaned out the remaining half-acre of the vegetable garden.
Not a single plant left.
