Chapter 1662: Chapter 1662: Full Belly, Time to Think of a Plan

If it wasn’t for her intervention, these people’s lives would probably have been taken long ago.
Just because of Gu Qingyu’s provocation, they’re struggling and their lives are at risk, these guards must have drawn the short straw, right?
“Go tell Su Tang to figure out a way to inform us.”
“Okay, I’ll go right now.”
Zhan Beiye stood up, intending to go find Su Tang.
But before he could take a step, he seemed to remember something and sat back down.
“I’ll go after Qian Jiyun returns.”
After all, he had promised Qian Jiyun to watch over An Jiuyue, and even though her strength surpassed his, and her poisonous skills were enough to wipe out everyone here, it didn’t mean Gu Qingyu and her weird bunch wouldn’t cause trouble.
Suddenly, he thought that what Qian Jiyun said made a lot of sense, when they returned, they should leave those people in the Zhedu Sea Area, to save themselves further trouble.
“That works too.”
An Jiuyue didn’t mind waiting a little bit longer and nodded.
“Right, the travelers have found quite a lot of herbs along the way, you go later and collect half of each kind for me, I don’t want to give others an easy advantage.”
She added.
“Alright.”
Zhan Beiye raised an eyebrow and agreed.
They couldn’t let those people think they’re easy to bully, right? If they don’t cause trouble for them, wouldn’t they think they’re scared?
“I’ll take a bit more than that.”
…
“What? Climb what mountain?”
All the guards who were eating barbeque were startled upon hearing the conversation between Zhan Beiye and Su Tang.
What did they just hear? Zhan Beiye actually told their leader to figure out a way to climb to the Jade Cloud Mountain Peak? Was he joking?
That’s Jade Cloud Mountain Peak, for many years no one has managed to climb it, sending them to climb Jade Cloud Mountain is like sending them to their deaths. Is this something a human can do?
“Climb Jade Cloud Mountain.”
Su Tang calmly looked at the shocked faces of the guards.
A moment ago they were all so eagerly gossiping, and now they are so surprised when asked to do something?
“You’ve all eaten your fill, right? Now think of a way. I don’t care what method you come up with; the end result must be that you reach the Jade Cloud Mountain Peak. Did you hear me?”
With that, he squarely placed the mission on the shoulders of the guards.
One by one, the guards became silent out of fear. They had no clue how to climb Jade Cloud Mountain—it had been so many years since anyone dared to attempt it. And according to rumors, those supreme experts who managed to reach the Jade Cloud Mountain Peak died upon their return, so what about them?
Suddenly, they all thought of the demonic beast that Zhan Beiye had thrown onto the Jade Cloud Mountain Cliff a while ago.
In the blink of an eye, it was devoured by the poisonous snakes, not even leaving bones behind. If they were to climb Jade Cloud Mountain, wouldn’t they end up like that demonic beast?
At least the beast was dead before it was thrown up there, but they would be climbing the mountain alive.
“Leader Su, are you sure about this?”
A guard couldn’t help but swallow hard and ask.
“Did you not hear my words clearly?” Su Tang’s cold gaze swept over to that guard, asking softly.
“No, no, I heard you loud and clear.”
The guard didn’t dare say he hadn’t heard clearly. He had heard perfectly well, but he really wanted to say that he hadn’t, that perhaps he was going deaf and had heard something he shouldn’t have.
“If you’ve heard clearly, then you better start figuring out a way from now on,” Su Tang said with his arms crossed, continuing to speak indifferently.
