Of course.
Pathetic as it may be.
Ren Guhong would never share the lotus seeds.
The Blood Corpse was his kill, and he used so many talismans, even his ultimate weapon.
Why should he split it with Jiang Fan?
“Hmm, there really are none left.”
“We’re both rather upset about it.”
Ren Guhong said casually, without a hint of shame.
Wu Manyue naturally didn’t dare offend Ren Guhong too much.
She pursed her lips and didn’t expose his lie.
Jiang Fan said helplessly, “Alright, at least we found the key for free.”
“Let’s hurry and leave this place then.”
The group nodded.
Ren Guhong kept an eye on the footprints on the ground as they walked.
He noticed Jiang Fan’s footprints indeed came all the way from the dining hall.
It was clear Jiang Fan had been too frightened to move earlier.
Ren Guhong shook his head secretly:
“I really don’t understand what Wu Manyue is wary of when it comes to this boy.”
“A simple little trick, and he’s already fallen for it.”
At that moment.
He noticed the skeleton in the dining hall had been shattered by Jiang Fan.
His gaze flickered slightly: “Junior Brother Jiang, did you find anything on the skeleton?”
If they hadn’t been in such a hurry to get the Dragon Blood Lotus earlier.
He would have certainly given that skeleton a thorough inspection.
Wu Manyue curiously stepped forward and searched through the pile of bones.
But she didn’t find anything.
Her gaze also shifted toward Jiang Fan.
“That senior disciple had already scavenged everything clean. Besides bones, there’s nothing left here for us.”
Jiang Fan sighed.
At this.
Ren Guhong and Wu Manyue didn’t feel too disappointed.
After all, someone else had already searched the area.
The chance of missing treasures was slim to none.
“Alright, let’s leave this place then.”
“All these spirit tablets are unsettlingly eerie.”
Ren Guhong stepped lightly as he led the two out of the secret chamber.
Outside the stone door.
Ren Guhong clasped his hands and asked, “What do the two of you plan to do next?”
Jiang Fan looked around at the air and said, “Senior Sister Wu.”
“Do you have any other Secret Realms?”
“I’d be glad to accompany you.”
Swoosh swoosh swoosh—
Wu Manyue instantly darted away from Jiang Fan, snapping, “Stay away from me!”
“Nothing good ever happens when I’m near you!”
Jiang Fan looked utterly innocent, “You came back empty-handed this time, and you’re blaming me for it somehow?”
Wu Manyue was momentarily speechless in frustration.
This time, Jiang Fan had surprised her by not causing any chaos.
She was almost unaccustomed to it.
“Either way, just stay far away from me, hmph!”
Her voice grew fainter as she stormed off into the distance.
