Chapter 239 It’s Not That I Don’t Want to Save It

[How could that be? Our love is all in it.]

[The actress above is so good, she should be a movie queen, right? ]

[Family members shouldn't expose each other's reputations, okay? How will those newcomers view us? How will they view the anchors?]

[Lying down and watching? I'm lying down and watching the live broadcast right now. I'll go play games after the live broadcast ends.]

[Anchor meow meow meow.]

Lin Qingyue really couldn't bear to read the comments on the barrage, so he simply stopped reading and focused on getting on his way.

It took a day and a night, but they were moving at a fast pace. Except for a break Shui Jianyue took due to his frail health, they reached the Red Devil Forest where the unicorn was in twelve hours.

……

Meng Nianchun asked Chunjiao to find the location of the unicorn, and the small wooden sword disappeared into the sky with a whoosh.

"Let's split up and look for them. Remember not to hurt the young unicorns, or they will be attacked by the herd. Once we find a suitable adult unicorn, send a signal to everyone."

"clear."

"Ok."

……

"Shui Jianyue, do you want to go with Lin Qingyue?" Meng Nianchun asked Shui Jianyue, and Shui Jianyue nodded weakly.

"Okay then." Meng Nianchun grabbed Wang Bielin, who was about to leave, and said, "Come here."

"What?"

Meng Nianchun: "You, Lin Qingyue, and Shui Jianyue are a team. Lin Qingyue will be responsible for finding her, and you will be responsible for protecting Shui Jianyue."

"Ah?" Wang Bielin protested, "But I don't want to protect anyone. I want to find the unicorn myself."

Meng Nianchun: ...

He looked at Wang Bielin as if he were a fool: "Do you know the strength of the unicorn?"

Wang Bielin was a brave and fearless person: "I don't know, so what?"

Meng Nianchun: "Nothing serious, it's just that it can break the bones of a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator with one kick."

"What???" Wang Bielin was shocked, but quickly changed his tone: "Then I'd better go with Lin Qingyue. I'm quite good at taking care of people, and Lin Qingyue knows that."

Lin Qingyue knew of course, she nodded: "Then let it be."

After Meng Nianchun gave his instructions, he left without a second thought and in an extremely casual manner.

Wang Bielin thought that if he had such strong strength, he could go anywhere freely.

Lin Qingyue, Wang Bielin, Shuijianyue and the other two went in the direction that the others had not gone.

The Red Devil Tree is just as its name suggests, red all over and emitting golden light from the center.

Shui Jianyue also explained to Lin Qingyue and Wang Bielin that the golden substance in the middle of the Red Devil Tree was a precious alchemy material. After they completed their mission, they could return and collect the substance from it.

Wang Bielin: "Can't we pick it now? I see it's right there, it's easy to find."

Shui Jianyue shook her head. "That's not the problem. The fruit of the Red Devil Tree secretes a sticky liquid that tightly binds the fruit to the tree. It takes a lot of effort to pick the fruit of the Red Devil Tree."

Lin Qingyue: "Time is tight now, let's wait until we find the unicorn."

Although traces of unicorns can be found near the Red Devil Forest, except for the cracked, blackened, scorched earth on the ground and a field of red Red Devil trees, the traces of unicorns here seem to have been wiped out.

There was nothing, not even a baby unicorn.

Not long after, Lin Qingyue and his friends met Zhu Xinhong again.

After the two sides talked for a while, they found that neither of them had found the unicorn.

"I've searched the entire area, but found nothing except some small monsters."

Lin Qingyue and the others also decided to go find Ge Ziwei and Meng Nianchun to reconcile and see how they were doing.

When they found Ge Ziwei, she was squatting in front of a yellow baby unicorn, healing its wounds.

Ge Ziwei's situation was better, as she found a young unicorn.

"This one must have been abandoned by the unicorn herd. When I saw it, its body was covered with blood holes. Unfortunately, I don't know any medical skills, so I need the help of Fellow Daoist Shui."

Shui Jianyue looked at the weak and injured unicorn, which was blinking its huge, moist eyes at it, looking as pitiful as it could be.

Shui Jianyue's voice was still shy, but her tone was firm.

"If Brother Ge wants me to save it, then that means you want to take it in as your spiritual pet. You need to pay for the consultation and medicine so that I can treat it."

"My master said that we can't do business that will lose money."

Ge Ziwei's ears suddenly turned red. "I... haven't decided whether to contract it as a spirit pet yet. Can't Fellow Daoist Shui save it for its loneliness and helplessness?"

Shui Jianyue was thin-skinned, and Ge Ziwei's words made her seem cold and indifferent. She frowned slightly and said, "If it was Brother Ge who was injured, I would definitely save you. However, this unicorn has been expelled from its tribe. Even if I saved it, it would have a hard time surviving. I don't want to bear the consequences of such a thing. If I'm going to do it, I have to do it to perfection."

Ge Ziwei: "In that case, let it rest here. I've already given it a life-saving pill. If Fellow Daoist Shui doesn't want to save it, then don't save it."

Wang Bielin frowned: "Brother Ge, what do you mean?"

Lin Qingyue also sensed something was amiss, so she changed the subject: "We've been out for so long, I wonder if Senior Brother Meng has found the adult unicorn yet. Let's not waste any more time here, let's go."

Zhu Xinhong also tried to smooth things over: "Yes, yes, let's go quickly, it will be too late if we don't leave now."

Lin Qingyue saw the comments in the barrage start to explode.

[To be honest, Ge Ziwei's words just now were quite green tea. Isn't this a white lotus?]

I saw Shuijianyue almost crying, and I felt really bad for her.

[Honestly, if you really want to save it, then save it yourself and pay for it yourself, and take responsibility for the unicorn's back half.]

[Yes, yes, but Shui Jianyue is the only medical practitioner in the team. How could Ge Ziwei be so foolish as to offend her?]

[It wasn't an obvious offense, was just a test, to see if Shui Jianyue would save the unicorn, so that it would be easier to plot against Shui Jianyue.]

[Please stop the conspiracy theories. We're just discussing whether to save a wounded unicorn. Do you really need to fantasize about others like this? You're being really narrow-minded.]

[Okay, I don't think Ge Ziwei is a white lotus anymore. The one above is the real shit. Do you think you are different by acting like you are the only one sober while everyone else is drunk?]

[Yes, compared to a mentally ill person like you, I am certainly more rational and tolerant.]

Lin Qingyue: "You guys can argue, just don't scold me."

As soon as she finished speaking, several comments popped up scolding her.

Lin Qingyue: ...

She shouldn't have said that.

Someone tugged at her clothes. Lin Qingyue looked over and found that it was Shui Jianyue looking at her aggrievedly.

Then her voice came.

"It's not that I don't want to save it."
