Chapter 277 Resurrecting Skeleton
"I’m sorry, Junior Sister Mo Qing, but I have my eyes set on this item too. Why don’t you go for that scroll instead?"
In just an instant, Yue Qi abandoned his original target, the green scroll, and set his sights on the small tree, whose value he was entirely clueless about.
It must be said that Mo Qing’s attitude caused a complete 180-degree turn in Yue Qi’s thoughts. At least in his eyes, anything that could be placed at the center platform alongside the Jade Bottle scroll, especially at the very center, surely couldn’t be much less valuable than those two items.
"Damn it!"
As soon as Yue Qi spoke, Mo Qing cursed him silently in her heart. She had clearly seen his target was the green scroll a moment ago. How did he change his mind so suddenly?
But Yue Qi didn’t have as many thoughts as Mo Qing. After he spoke, he flashed forward, quickly reaching out to grab the small tree.
Upon seeing this, Mo Qing was shocked. Realizing it was too late to compete for the small tree, she decided to "encircle Wei to save Zhao," and sent out a fierce palm strike toward the fatal spot on Yue Qi’s back.
"Damn woman!"
No matter how much Yue Qi wanted to secure the small tree first, Mo Qing’s strength was certainly not inferior to his. If he insisted on taking the tree first, he would inevitably be unable to avoid her palm strike to his back.
Therefore, after cursing silently in his heart, Yue Qi eventually made a wise decision. He couldn’t risk his safety, especially when there were many potential rivals around. If he were to be seriously injured in an instant, even if he managed to obtain the item, he might not truly possess it.
