Chapter 339: Exchange
Seeing this, Audrey hurriedly went forward and said, “We really want to take back the frost bead, but I want to know why you stole it.”
“The frost bead protects the village, and you protect the frost bead. You can’t do without the ice bead. You also have the frost bead in the village. Why did you have to steal it? It’s not good for you at all,” Audrey said, she immediately understood the situation of the Blazing Flame Beast.
Even if it wanted to lie, it had to consider whether or not it could hide it from Audrey.
The Blazing Flame Beast was straightforward and was not good at mental skills. Seeing that Audrey had already seen through its situation… it simply said, “Ha! If it wasn’t for that group of people being too stupid and me guarding the cold frost bead and the village for them, they would have wanted to take away my beast core instead. Why would I make such a move?”
Beast core?
Audrey was stunned for a moment. The villagers were all low-level Qi practitioners. It was useless to take the beast core. Why would they do such a thing?
Was the Blazing Flame Beast lying, or were the villagers really lying? Audrey could not tell for a moment. However, at the moment, she could only choose to trust the Blazing Flame Beast.
“That’s why you stole the cold frost bead and escaped for your own safety.” Audrey probed once again.
“Little girl, you’re asking too many questions!” The Blazing Flame Beast replied in a somewhat irritable manner. “If you want to take the frost bead, I advise you to leave as soon as possible.”
Audrey frowned slightly. She also wanted to take back the frost bead as soon as possible. However, if she killed the Blazing Flame Beast, the frost bead would still be very dangerous in the future without any beast guarding it.
If the Blazing Flame Beast really had a conflict with the villagers, then would it not be a better solution to resolve the conflict.
“Audrey, don’t waste your breath on it. It’s just a demonic beast. What does it know!” Cole could not stand it any longer and said coldly.
As soon as he said that, the Blazing Flame Beast immediately released a fireball and attacked Cole. In the blink of an eye, Cole had started fighting with the Blazing Flame Beast.
Audrey was shocked as she watched this scene uneasily. Cole was not a match for the Blazing Flame Beast and would soon be defeated. By then, the Blazing Flame Beast would probably be really angry.
“Wind wall!” Audrey rushed forward and created a barrier between the two of them. She stood in front of the wind wall and spoke to the Blazing Flame Beast. This was enough to show her sincerity.
“Blazing Flame Beast, the current situation isn’t good for everyone. This place isn’t suitable for your survival. The village is the most suitable for you.” Audrey mustered her courage and discussed with the Blazing Flame Beast, “I can help you reconcile with the villagers. This will be beneficial to you.”
Upon hearing this, the Blazing Flame Beast revealed a doubtful expression. It did not seem to expect Audrey to say this.
“You’re really interesting to discuss this with me,” it snorted coldly and said unhappily.
Audrey was not confident either. If the Blazing Flame Beast did not agree, then she could only use force.
“Little girl, why should I believe you?” After a moment of stalemate, the Blazing Flame Beast moved closer to Audrey and looked around.
Audrey was not sure what to do, so she was stunned.
At this moment, a gust of wind blew over, and the dragon bone bracelet on her hand made some sounds. Audrey’s gaze fell on the bracelet. After thinking for a moment, she made up her mind.
“I’ll give this to you as collateral. This is very important to me. I’ll definitely come back and look for you.” Audrey handed the bracelet over, and it still made some crisp sounds.
Upon seeing the bracelet, the Blazing Flame Beast was startled. His expression was somewhat solemn.
“Dragon bone bracelet?” The Blazing Flame Beast asked, “How did you get this?”
“This was left behind by my mother. It’s very important to me. I’ll trade it for the frost bead with you,” Audrey explained truthfully, revealing her sincerity.
The Blazing Flame Beast pondered for a moment, then stared at the dragon bone bracelet. It was something that even beasts would fear when they saw it.
“Alright, I agree. I hope you won’t disappoint me.” The Blazing Flame Beast finally relented. It opened its huge mouth and spat out the frost bead.
Audrey revealed a look of joy as she reached out to receive it gently. At the same time, she solemnly handed the dragon bone bracelet to the Blazing Flame Beast and exhorted, “Please help me keep it well. I’ll come back to get it.”
“That depends on whether you can keep your promise.” The Blazing Flame Beast snorted coldly and turned around to walk into the cave.
The frost bead was extremely cold. Ordinary people would not be able to hold it for long. However, as the embodiment of the Snow Goddess, Audrey had a predestined relationship with the frost bead, so the frost bead was directly in her hands.
Her teammates also surrounded her and looked at her with concern.
“Audrey, why didn’t you let us deal with the Blazing Flame Beast directly?” Klein asked in puzzlement. Audrey was usually not someone who was afraid of battle.
“The Blazing Flame Beast and the frost bead have a deep relationship with the village. If we deal with it, we can only get the frost bead back, but we can’t solve anything else,” Audrey explained patiently, but she hid the things Lance had told her.
The few of them heard it and felt that it made sense, so they agreed with Audrey’s actions.
“But, your bracelet was left behind by your mother. If you give it away like this, will it…” Kate said.
Understanding what Kate wanted to say, Audrey interrupted him in time and said, “It won’t.”
“Alright, now that we have the frost bead, let’s hurry to the nearby village.” Audrey changed the topic and looked at everyone calmly.
In order to not let down Audrey’s hard work and for her dragon bone bracelet, everyone cooperated very well. After confirming the direction of the village, they walked toward it.
Along the way, they encountered countless strong winds and bad weather, but they persevered. After walking for a day and a night, they finally reached the vicinity of the village.
According to Lance, the villagers here had lived here for a long time and had no contact with the outside world. They were all very simple and natural. Although the village was cold, it was filled with warmth due to human kindness.
However, when Audrey stepped in, she felt a bone-chilling chill that was even colder than she had felt in other places.
