Chapter 483: 300 Making a Fairy Fetus?_3
After just a few moments, Gadi, a tall figure who, despite the sweltering heat, still meticulously donned a stylish trench coat, appeared at the entrance surrounded by his subordinates.
On one side, the battle was on the verge of exploding, with various heavy weapons poised to fire at any second, yet two people there didn’t seem worried at all and leisurely continued walking their dog.
Indeed, they were people who had seen their fair share of the world.
Bru, like a bulldozer, pressed his nose against the ground, leaving behind a trail of adorably clumsy paw prints.
Even if Bru were cunning as a fox, it was impossible for him to smell anything from hundreds or even thousands of meters underground at the Diamond Mine.
What Xia Ye had him looking for was something else.
Jiang Xuan looked at Bru’s agile figure with a headache, "If he really became ’enlightened’, how would you have me explain it?"
Xia Ye then thought, "What if, after our future Dual Cultivation, I give birth to a baby fox, could you explain that?"
Jiang Xuan paused, not expecting her to make such a comparison.
She dared to think and speak about everything without really understanding what it truly meant.
The usually stoic man blushed, his tone slightly agitated, "Of course I can explain. Not just a fox, whatever you give birth to, I can make sure ’it’ is born safely and grows up healthy."
Hearing his serious tone, Xia Ye realized her analogy might not have been so appropriate.
The atmosphere suddenly turned awkward.
Xia Ye walked ahead sullenly, with Bru matching her pace.
As they walked, the leash in Xia Ye’s hand suddenly stopped, snagged by something.
Turning around, Bru was eagerly sniffing and circling a plant, appearing very excited.
Upon seeing the plant clearly, Xia Ye paused and walked closer.
It was a plant from the Nepenthaceae family, the whole looking like a large candelabrum with sword-shaped leaves all around.
This type of plant might look special in the Capital City, but in this tropical, bushy jungle, it was extremely unremarkable.
Yet, it was precisely this inconspicuous plant that Xia Ye had Bru search for today—her treasure.
The plant was rare, unnamed, but it had one special characteristic: it only grew on very rare Kimberlite rock.
And Kimberlite, a rock extremely difficult to detect, served as a crucial clue in the hunt for diamonds.
Finding Kimberlite was tantamount to finding diamonds.
Xia Ye had seen this plant only once before during her previous visits to the frontier. Without a sample at hand, she could only try her best to mimic a unique scent from the stem of this plant.
Aside from Bru, trained by Xia Ye, no one else could achieve this feat by following this subtle scent.
At the same time, Jiang Xuan stepped onto something very hard.
With the Southern Boundary being abundantly rainy, the violent downpour from the night before had washed many underground treasures onto the surface.
Jiang Xuan bent down to pick it up.
It was a rock, half the size of a palm, covered in mud.
But through the dirt, you could glimpse the clear material inside.
By a clear puddle nearby, Jiang Xuan washed the rock.
The mud washed away, revealing its true nature.
It was an amethyst, not rare, but of extremely fine quality.
Looking closer, he saw a few more worthless mica scattered on the ground.
The man squinted, considering this place had potential.
Gadi, spreading his trench coat ostentatiously, spoke commandingly, "Who made you come late? It’s considerate enough that we left you a spot."
"You wait..." Cook, recalling his boss’s instructions, swallowed the curse that was on the tip of his tongue, "This place was already dug by our boss, what’s there for you to leave to us?"
Gadi sneered, "It’s been dug? Why not dig deeper? Maybe you’ll find diamonds if you go deeper."
His tone was mocking, and his men chuckled along.
Normally, Xia Xian would have already thrown a punch at Gadi for his incessant prattling, but today, having brought Little Tiangao along, he definitely couldn’t afford a real fight.
His jaw clenched tightly, his fists balled up hard.
Just then, a voice from afar, Little Tiangao’s, called out, "Brother, why don’t we do as he says, and dig a bit deeper? I feel like this place has good feng shui, seems like it’s lucky for diamonds~"
Xia Xian looked at his naively adorable sister, his anger somewhat dissipating.
Gadi turned to look at them, his face twisted into a taunting sneer.
The girl was pretty, but a pity she lacked brains.
Other things aside, she was definitely number one at getting her brother into trouble!
