Chapter 156 The Temptation of Spiritual Fruit
"It said it's dangerous ahead and asked us to leave." Su Siyi said solemnly. Her voice was particularly clear in the silent atmosphere, so everyone instantly understood what it meant.
Everyone frowned upon hearing this. They had originally thought that the cat before them was just an ordinary cat, but now it seemed that this cat possessed extraordinary abilities and wisdom beyond imagination. Moreover, it seemed determined not to let them pass.
"Master Cat, we must proceed to the front. There are extremely important matters that require our attention. Please be magnanimous and grant us a favor," Feng Bolin pleaded again, his hands clasped together. His eyes were filled with anxiety, as their mission was crucial and could not be delayed.
However, the black cat remained unmoved, standing there steadily like a black statue, and continued to make threatening growls, the sound echoing in the air like an invisible warning.
"We won't hurt you, Mr. Cat. Please trust us," Su Siyi said softly, her voice gentle and soothing, trying to calm the black cat's nervousness and vigilance. Her eyes were filled with kindness, hoping that the black cat could sense their sincerity.
But the black cat remained highly alert, staring at them intently, refusing to budge. Every strand of its hair seemed to exude an air of inviolability, as if guarding an inestimably important secret.
Time trickled down like a stream, slowly slipping away minute by minute. The atmosphere around them grew increasingly tense, as if enveloped by an invisible haze. Everyone began racking their brains to think about how to handle this thorny situation. If they recklessly forced their way through, they would likely anger the black cat, leading to its violent attack. However, if they chose to take a detour, they would undoubtedly waste precious time and energy, and might also encounter other unknown troubles.
Just as the situation reached a stalemate, with everyone at a loss for what to do, Su Siyi suddenly had a brilliant idea. She quickly reached into her backpack, rummaged around, and pulled out some red fruits from the fairy world. These fruits exuded an alluring sweet aroma. She carefully placed them on the ground and slowly stepped back, watching the black cat's reaction.
The black cat's originally tense body immediately stopped roaring the moment it smelled the sweet scent of the red fruit. A hint of curiosity flashed in its blue eyes, and its ears moved slightly. It stared at the red fruit on the ground, its eyes full of desire.
"Mr. Cat, these red fruits are specially for you. We hope this shows our sincerity and allows us to pass." Su Siyi said softly with a gentle smile on her face. Her smile was like the warm sunshine on a spring day, full of affinity.
The black cat hesitated for a moment, unable to resist the temptation of delicious food. In the end, the sweet smell overcame its vigilance, and it could not help but slowly walked over, first carefully sniffed the red fruit, and then began to enjoy the food with relish.
Seeing that the black cat had relaxed its vigilance, everyone looked at each other, understood what he meant, and quickly took the opportunity to pass through this place. The whole process was very smooth and there were no more obstacles.
"It's finally over." Feng Bolin breathed a sigh of relief, a relieved expression on his face.
"Yes, it's a good thing that Siyi came up with this idea." The others nodded in agreement, their eyes filled with gratitude and admiration for Su Siyi.
Su Siyi just smiled and said a little embarrassedly: "Actually, it was just a sudden idea. I didn't expect it to be so useful."
"I can only say that the fruit you gave is too attractive to Beast." Nangong Jingming said with certainty.
"Yes, sister, that red fruit still has a lot of spiritual energy, which is naturally very attractive to that kind of spiritual beast." Su Wenying also said affirmatively with a smile, his eyes flashing with amazement, and he was very surprised at the capabilities of Su Siyi's system.
Su Siyi smiled helplessly, secretly thanking herself for having such a powerful sign-in system. However, she didn't want to dwell on this topic any further. So she quickly changed the subject: "Maybe. Let's hurry on. It says there's danger ahead, so we need to pay more attention to safety issues and not be careless."
Nangong Jingming's expression immediately grew serious upon hearing this. He was well aware of the potential dangers ahead, like a beast lurking in the shadows, poised to pounce at any moment. In this unfamiliar and unknown environment, one must remain highly vigilant. He immediately said, "Okay, I'll lead the way. Everyone stay safe." His voice was steady and powerful, reassuring everyone.
Everyone nodded in agreement. They all knew that when facing unknown dangers, only unity and obedience to command could ensure their own safety. So, the group continued to advance cautiously, each person maintaining a high level of vigilance, their eyes constantly scanning their surroundings, their ears perked up, ready to respond to any possible danger.
"Big brother, second brother, you should also pay more attention to the situation around you." Su Siyi said to her two brothers. She knew that her brothers had always taken good care of her, but in this dangerous environment, she also hoped that her brothers could protect themselves.
"Don't worry! We will protect you." Su Wenxin looked at her with a smile on his face, his eyes full of doting.
"I can protect myself, but you guys should also be more careful about your own safety," Su Siyi said with a helpless smile. Although she knew her brothers' good intentions, she didn't want to be a burden to them. She hoped to be able to exert her own strength on this dangerous journey.
"Well, don't worry, I will." Su Wenying said steadily. His eyes were firm and confident, giving people a sense of trust.
After walking for another hour, Nangong Jingming looked up at the sky and saw that it was gradually getting darker, like a black curtain slowly covering the earth. He knew that night was about to fall, and they had to act cautiously in such an unfamiliar environment, so he decided to find a suitable place to rest.
