Chapter 319 - 316: Poison Qi Removal
In a corner of the cave dwelling.
The rhinoceros and monkey were squatting on the ground, tilting their heads and whispering to each other.
"I've completely lost face," the rhinoceros heaved a heavy sigh, "and my prestige is gone too. I definitely won't be able to keep the position of the king."
"You're overthinking it," the monkey consoled, "After Bear King's death, you're the one with the highest cultivation in Beast King Valley. It's only fair, both logically and emotionally, that you become the king. I believe the other ferocious beasts think the same."
"But the real problem is... the other ferocious beasts won't submit to me..."
"They will, they will definitely submit to you."
"Stop comforting me," the rhinoceros shook its head slightly, "I've made up my mind. Once I escape the danger, I'll enter closed-door cultivation and not involve myself with matters of the Beast King Valley anymore."
"That won't do," the monkey urgently said, "Beast King Valley needs you, all the ferocious beasts need you."
"My mind is made up. No matter what you say, I won't take on the role of the king," the rhinoceros said very resolutely.
"Think about it again, don't make a rash decision."
"I've thought it through."
"You..."
"No more talk, I'm tired, I want to rest." The rhinoceros closed its eyes, ignoring the monkey.
The monkey opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but as the words reached his lips, they all turned into a long sigh. Damn you, Gao Fei! All this because of you, I will never let you off!
...
Three days later.
Gao Fei emerged feeling refreshed, the poison in his body was completely cleared, no more worries about his life being in danger.
"Hahaha..."
Gao Fei laughed heartily to the sky, his laughter filled with joy and merriment, as the saying goes, "Without poison, the body feels light," what a great thing to be alive!
Just then, the rhinoceros and monkey came out of the cave dwelling, attracted by Gao Fei's laughter.
"You've come at the right time," Gao Fei laughed, "I'm leaving Beast King Valley today, the two of you should see me off."
"You're leaving?"
"Yes."
"Really leaving?"
"Why, can't bear to let me go?"
"...We can't wait for you to go, hurry and leave! We can finally sleep peacefully without you."
...
Under the blue sky and white clouds.
The monkey was hopping and jumping ahead, while the rhinoceros was carrying Gao Fei behind.
"Old Bull," Gao Fei patted the rhinoceros's back, "come with me."
"Come with you?" The rhinoceros's eyes widened.
"Become my mount in the future," Gao Fei said with a smile, "I'll definitely treat you well."
"Don't even think about it!" the rhinoceros bellowed, "Even if I die, I won't become your mount!"
"Don't reject it so quickly, think about it carefully."
"Think about what? I won't be your mount even if I'm crazy, I would rather not be king than serve you as a mount."
"What's the future in being a king? Stuck in Beast King Valley for life, not to mention the boredom and loneliness, there's no prospect for advancement. If you follow me, it'll be different. I can take you around to see the scenery of mountains and rivers, take you to fight through the world, help you improve your cultivation...
If you follow me, you can gain fame and rapidly increase your cultivation..."
"Enough, don't talk anymore, even if you argue until you're blue in the face, I won't become your mount."
"Ah!" Gao Fei shook his head in disappointment, "What a pity! Such a pity! I really like you, think about it one more time."
"I don't like you!" the rhinoceros said, "I hate you! Hate you to death! And I'll say it again, even in death, I won't become your mount."
"You'll definitely regret it later," said Gao Fei softly.
The rhino turned its head away, no longer paying attention to Gao Fei, what a joke, thinking I would be your mount? Bullshit! And you're saying I'll regret it later? Bullcrap!
"Monkey, come hang with me," Gao Fei said, "I need someone to do odd jobs by my side, and if you're willing..."
"I'm not willing." The monkey refused outright before Gao Fei could finish.
"Don't you want to go out and see? See how wonderful the outside world is?"
"Don't want to."
"Don't you want to make a name for yourself, to achieve something?"
"Don't want to."
"Do you want to die trapped in Beast King Valley?"
"...Don't want to."
"If you don't want to die trapped, then come with me. I can make your life incredibly exciting, at least more exciting than in Beast King Valley."
"I'd rather die trapped in Beast King Valley than go with you," the monkey said, and then added, "Monkeys have dignity too!"
"Ignorant! Foolish!" Gao Fei snorted, "You'll definitely regret it later!"
"Say whatever you want, but I won't go with you," the monkey said firmly.
...
Gao Fei truly took a liking to the monkey and the rhino, the monkey was clever and could stay by his side to do chores, while the rhino was thick-skinned and could serve as a mount; what a perfect combination. But... neither the rhino nor the monkey agreed.
It was infuriating!
At one moment, Gao Fei considered forcefully taking them away, "You don't agree? Then I'll use force and get you both out of here. Once you've seen the exciting world outside, you certainly won't want to go back to Beast King Valley."
Just as Gao Fei was about to take action, the monkey spoke, "You better not use force on us, otherwise we'll fight you to the death! Even if it kills us, we won't let you succeed!"
Gao Fei's face suddenly turned gloomy.
Ungrateful things!
I wanted to give you an opportunity, but you don't want it, so be it. I live more carefree without you two burdens.
"Awoo!!!"
"Ao!!!"
"Wu wu..."
Howls and roars came from both sides of the road.
"What's this? The ferocious beasts getting restless again?" Gao Fei slapped the rhino's head, "I promise you, if those ferocious beasts dare to charge out, I'll slaughter you! Absolutely no hesitation!" Saying this, Gao Fei looked up at the monkey, "And you! You'll die too!"
Both the rhino and monkey shivered at the same time.
"Roar!!!"
"Ah!!!"
The rhino and monkey roared loudly, strangely enough, after they roared a few times, the ferocious beasts that were getting restless stopped, and calmness returned to the surroundings.
"Good that you know your place," Gao Fei nodded slightly.
A few hours later.
The monkey, rhino, and Gao Fei arrived at the entrance of Beast King Valley.
Mist shrouded the entire entrance.
"One last time, are you coming with me or not?" Gao Fei asked.
"Even if you ask ten thousand times, we only have one answer, and that's no!" the rhino answered.
Gao Fei nodded, "I gave you a chance, too bad you don't cherish it." After these words, Gao Fei strode into the mist.
"Finally got rid of that plague," the monkey wiped the sweat from its forehead, "Damn, that was not easy."
"I can finally get some peaceful sleep," the rhino slowly exhaled a heavy breath.
