Chapter 1210: I Have Good Intentions
Lu Zhou was still hovering in the air, overlooking the direction where the four cultivators had left.
Mingshi Yin said, “Master, we don’t have to consider morality with them since they snatched it from someone else as well. Those are mystic microstones!”
At this time, Lu Zhou stopped stroking his beard and said, “It’s about time.”
Then, he used the power of smell. With his hands on his back, he rushed out and chased after the scent in the air.
The other seven people were dumbfounded, unable to figure out Lu Zhou’s meaning. All they could do was follow behind him.
Not long after passing through a forest, Lu Zhou came to a stop. He pointed at an ancient tree and said, “I’ve already said you won’t be able to go far…”
The four cultivators walked out of the area hidden by the ancient tree with surprised expressions on their faces.
“Old Sir, do you plan to commit daylight robbery?” a masked cultivator asked.
“No. I don’t plan to commit daylight robbery. I want to make a deal with you,” Lu Zhou said.
“There’s no need for that. Please don’t follow us anymore.” The leader of the masked cultivators’ gaze was piercing and wary.
“I have good intentions,” Lu Zhou said tonelessly, “The purple energy on your bodies is from the Li Lis. Moreover, based on the intensity of the energy, you must have encountered a Li Li beast king.”
The gray-clad cultivators did not deny it. “We’ll deal with our own matters.”
“Based on my knowledge, it’s not easy to get rid of the Li Li’s corrosive energy. If you’re not treated within three days, you’ll decay from the corrosive energy, and you’ll have no chance of healing after that…” Lu Zhou said.
As soon as Lu Zhou finished speaking, one of the gray-clad cultivators staggered and fell to the ground. He was trembling violently.
“Second Brother! Second Brother!”
“What’s wrong?”
“The Li Li’s corrosive energy has reached his heart.”
The remaining three cultivators looked at each other; their foreheads were drenched in sweat.
Lu Zhou continued to say, “I can remove the corrosive energy providing you hand over the mystic microstones to me.”
“…”
“Eldest Brother, Second Brother is dying!”
The three cultivators supported the cultivator who had fallen. All of them were worried and nervous.
“Second Brother!”
Mingshi Yin said with a smile, “Master, it doesn’t matter if we save them or not. Once all of them die, the microstones will still belong to us…”
“Fourth Senior Brother is right,” Little Yuan’er chimed in.
The gray-clad cultivators. “…”
The three cultivators supported their injured comrade and rose into the air. However, they had only flown up several meters before they landed again. They staggered back and almost lost their footing.
On the other hand, Yan Zhenluo and Lu Li remained silent. They were idealists, after all. They did not like to take advantage of others especially when the other party was in a disadvantageous position.
Mingshi Yin continued to say, “You really don’t know what’s good for you. If we really want to rob you, we would’ve done it. Why would we waste time talking to you?”
The gray-clad cultivators finally seemed to be enlightened.
One of them asked, “Old Sir, can you really remove the corrosive energy?”
After all, removing the corrosive energy was not an easy task.
Lu Zhou said, “It’s up to you to believe it or not.”
The leader of the cultivators thought about it for a moment before he gritted his teeth and said, “Alright. If you can remove the corrosive power for us, the mystic microstones will be yours.”
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and nodded. “At least you have some sense.”
Lu Zhou flicked his sleeve and raised his hand. A golden lotus imbued with the divine power appeared above his palm.
“Golden lotus?” A hint of surprise flashed in the leader’s eyes.
“Don’t move.” Lu Zhou’s voice was sonorous and deep.
The golden lotus descended slightly. When it bloomed, everyone could feel the surging vitality energy it contained.
This was the first time Lu Zhou had used the power of healing after upgrading the supreme mystic power to the divine power.
The golden lotus’s healing effect attacked the corrosive energy in the four cultivators’ bodies. The injuries on their bodies were also swiftly healed. In less than 15 minutes, the corrosive energy was removed from their bodies.
Duanmu Sheng was afflicted by the corrosive energy of countless Li Lis that he killed. In comparison, the corrosive energy in these four cultivators’ bodies was easy to get rid of.
Even after the golden lotus disappeared, the four cultivators still looked dumbfounded. They stood up, stretched their limbs, and touched their faces in disbelief.
Mingshi Yin was not polite and bluntly said, “Mystic microstones.”
After four of them calmed down from their excitement, they furrowed their brows. Then, they gathered and whispered in low voices. No one knew what they were discussing.
“I advise you to keep your promise,” Yan Zhenluo said.
As soon as Yan Zhenluo’s voice fell, the four cultivators stood in a row and kneeled on one knee in unison. “Thank you, Old Sir. Here are the mystic microstones. Apart from that, we have a small request.”
Lu Zhou said, “Speak.”
Compared to the countless purple clouds that Duanmu Sheng had killed, the decaying energy was still a lot weaker. Thus, healing the decaying energy was not too difficult.
With the disappearance of the Golden Lotus, everything returned to normal.
The four of them were in disbelief. They stood up, stretched their muscles, and touched their cheeks.
Ming Shiyin did not stand on ceremony with them and said, “Profound microstone.”
After the four of them calmed down from their excitement, their brows furrowed. They gathered together and whispered to each other. No one knew what they were mumbling about.
“I advise you to keep your promise…”Yan Zhenluo said.
As soon as he finished speaking.
The four of them turned around and stood in a row, kneeling down on one knee at the same time. “Thank you, Old Sir. Here are the Xuan Micro Stones. However, the four of us brothers have a small request.”
Lu Zhou said, “Speak.”
“We want to cooperate with you, Old Sir. I heard a beast emperor has appeared in the north. Any place a beast emperor resides is bound to have treasures…”
In the four cultivators’ eyes, Lu Zhou was a super healer! Having lived in the Unknown Land for so many years, they knew the importance of healers!
Mingshi Yin said, “Master, there’s no need to cooperate with them. With just a glance, you know they’d definitely hold us back.”
‘You think we’ll hold you back?’
The leader seemed dissatisfied with Mingshi Yin’s words. He rose to his feet and brought out more than ten talismans before he clapped his hands.
The talismans danced in the air and flew in all directions, looking like fireflies.
“Tracking talismans.”
Another cultivator, whom the others referred to as Second Brother, rose to his feet as well. An item that looked like a pen appeared in his hand. Then, he quickly drew a green seal on the ground and brought a small talisman out.
Clearly, Second Brother was a runemaster.
Following that, Third Brother rose to his feet as well. He drew his saber before tossing it at a huge rock in the distance. The saber circled the huge rock before it flew back.
Boom!
The huge rock exploded, stirring up pieces of rocks into the sky.
With this, Fourth Brother flew up. He moved like a shadow as he flashed back and forth. In just a moment, he had gathered all the pieces of rock from the explosions.
Mingshi Yin said, “Huh, who knew you have some skills…”
The leader said proudly, “Of course.”
“Old Sir, you’re skilled in healing. It just so happens we’re missing a healer. If we cooperate, we’ll definitely be able to obtain treasures better than mystic microstones. Please consider this, Old Sir,” the leader said. Then, he tossed something over.
Mingshi Yin caught it. He exhaled on it and used his sleeve to polish it with all his might before he said, “It’s the real thing!”
“Fourth Senior Brother, you’re amazing!” Little Yuan’er said.
“You’ve seen the mystic microstones before?” Yan Zhenluo asked in surprise. Mystic microstones were incredibly rare after all.
“No,” Mingshi Yin replied.
“…”
‘If you’ve never seen it before, how do you know it’s the real thing?’
Lu Zhou took a look at it and knew it was the real thing. Then, he said, “With your ability, the Li Lis shouldn’t be a problem for you to deal with…”
Li Lis were very weak; they could not even compare to ordinary weak fierce beasts. It was easy for Thousand Realms Whirling cultivators to kill them.
The leader sighed. “It’s a long story. This mystic microstone was in the Li Lis’ nest. However, when we snuck into the cave, we discovered it was a Li Li beast king. If it was another beast king, it wouldn’t pose a problem at all. However, the Li Li beast king is too strong.”
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and nodded. “Alright, we can cooperate. However, I have a few conditions. You can choose to agree or not.”
“Please speak, Old Sir.”
“I have the right to choose the treasures first.”
The four cultivators were stunned.
Third Brother said, “According to the rules of the Unknown Land, the treasures should be divided equally if we choose to cooperate.”
“It doesn’t matter. We’re doing it according to my rules,” Lu Zhou said.
“…”
“It’s up to you to agree or not…” Lu Zhou waved his hand and flew north without waiting for their reply.
The others from the Evil Sky Pavilion hurriedly flew after Lu Zhou.
After flying for thousands of meters, the four brothers finally caught up.
“Old Sir, please wait!”
Lu Zhou came to a halt and turned around.
The leader cupped his fists together and said, “We agree. We’ll follow your rules.”
Lu Zhou nodded in satisfaction. “Very good.”
Following that, the four of them bowed and revealed their names.
The leader, Kong Wen, said, “Old Sir, you’re skilled in healing. You’re an important asset to the group. It’s only right we agree to your rules.”
Mingshi Yin smiled. “You’re really sensible.”
Kong Wen stared at Whitzard. Even the chaotic energy in the Unknown Land could not hide its auspicious aura. “If I’m not mistaken, this mount should be Whitzard, right?”
“You have a discerning eye,” Mingshi Yin said.
“And that mount you’re riding is… Qiong Qi,” Kong Wen said again.
“Not bad.”
Kong wen smiled and said, “It’s not worth mentioning. It’s just that after staying in the Unknown Land for so long, I’ve gotten familiar with fierce beasts.”
After exchanging pleasantries, everyone continued to fly north.
…
After flying for half a day, everyone landed at the foot of a mountain to rest before they continued flying.
While Lu Zhou hovered in the air, Kong Wen approached Lu Zhou and said, “Further north, after another five days, we’ll reach a place called Green Hill. That place is close to the depths of the Unknown Land. Many fierce beasts roam that place. If a beast king appears, do you mind if I lead the battle?”
