Raising My Children With My Personal Spatial Ability Chapter 1651: Can This Thing Be Tested?

Chapter 1651: Chapter 1651: Can This Thing Be Tested?

He blinked, blinked again, and then, with some helplessness on his face, turned towards An Jiuyue standing beside him. He raised his hand, intending to wipe his face, but then saw it was covered in the blood of demonic beasts.

“Why did you pull me back, with so many demonic beasts around?”

“Didn’t you say you didn’t want to make a move?” An Jiuyue shrugged her shoulders at him, inquiring.

“Sure, I said that, but with so many demonic beasts, I should go up and lend a hand, right?” Zhan Beiye looked towards the throng of demonic beasts, teeming and obscuring any sight of the people mingled within them.

“Are you insinuating that I’m not helping?” An Jiuyue crossed her arms and asked.

“I never said that.”

How could Zhan Beiye dare to think like that? Letting a pregnant woman go and help — could he be so reckless?

It was only the guards under Su Tang who, under Gu Qingyu’s instigation, were dissatisfied with An Jiuyue. He wasn’t the sort of mindless brute who only knew how to fight wildly.

“Doesn’t your Strangling Formation target the demonic beasts?” he asked.

“Mm, it only strangles people.”

An Jiuyue nodded, her gaze shifting to the demonic beasts and the guards.

“And it doesn’t discriminate between friend and foe; anyone could be strangled.” She added another line.

“Cough cough.”

Zhan Beiye genuinely choked.

So the array formation was meant for killing people; even if demonic beasts were caught within the Strangling Formation, they wouldn’t die, but humans would?

“I really do want to let those fools give it a try.”

He shook his bloodied hand, lamenting.

Earlier, amidst the crowd of demonic beasts, he noticed the guards filled with resentment directed at An Jiuyue, and he truly didn’t understand what they had to resent.

They were here to help rescue Xiang Qiyan, tasked solely with that mission.

If they couldn’t withstand even these basic calamities, then what was the use of these guards to Xiang Qiyan? If they were supposed to do everything, could the guards not be dismissed?

“Is this thing really testable?” An Jiuyue raised her eyebrows, questioning him.

“Seems like it’s not,” he acknowledged with a light cough, shaking his head.

Forget it, he thought, let bygones be bygones. He really wanted to smack those foolish guards, one slap each to finish them off.

“Back to the matter at hand, I found the Cold Soul Flower Core,” An Jiuyue switched topics.

“You did? Where, where is it?”

Zhan Beiye perked up at the mention of the Cold Soul Flower Core, looking left and right, but all he could hear were the roars of demonic beasts. Aside from them, nothing was visible.

“An Jiuyue, where is it? Why can’t I see it?”

After all, he had seen the Cold Soul Flower Core depicted by An Jiuyue, so why couldn’t he spot it?

“Here.”

An Jiuyue raised her eyes, looking toward the highest direction.

“There.”

“There… there?”

Zhan Beiye’s gaze followed the direction she was looking with a stutter in his voice.

If he wasn’t mistaken, that had to be Jade Cloud Mountain Peak, right? He had heard about Jade Cloud Mountain Peak from Su Tang and his people; it wasn’t just a bare cliff but an entire snake den.

‘Gulp,’ he swallowed hard.

“An Jiuyue, don’t blame me for not reminding you, but it’s difficult to get up there,” he cautioned.

“Hmm?”

An Jiuyue raised her eyebrows, her eyes reflecting skepticism as she looked at him.

“Cough cough, let me rephrase that, it’s not just difficult to reach, it’s nearly impossible. It’s said that n.o.body has ascended it for far too many years, not even flying magical beasts dare to linger there.”
