Hearing this, Wan Ming imdiately said:
"Impossible!"
"I’ve seen Captain Zhou’s strength with my own eyes."
"Back then, that expert from the Phantom Clan couldn’t even last three moves in his hands."
"I figure it’s most likely just that he’s overdrawn his True Yuan."
At this mont, that burly man said with a touch of cold mockery:
"Maybe this person is just good at putting on an act, who knows!"
Hearing this, the others couldn’t help but look toward this man.
His face was expressionless.
Han Ying spoke up, "I don’t think there’s any need for everyone to speculate."
"Since Captain Zhou has co, that ans he has the confidence to do so."
"Even in his current state, I dare say that among us, there are probably very few who could contend with him!"
Hearing Han Ying give Zhou Yu such a high evaluation, the others clearly showed disbelief on their faces.
However, they were smart enough not to voice it.
At this mont, Zhou Yu was in a cave-dwelling, eyes closed as he recovered his True Yuan.
On his shoulder lay a Fire-eyed Flying Ant.
Every word spoken outside was heard clearly by Zhou Yu, without missing a single one.
He hadn’t expected that the focus of their discussion would actually be him.
After he heard what they were saying, the corner of his mouth finally curled into a cold smile.
Ti passed quickly.
In the blink of an eye, another half month went by.
During this period, Zhou Yu’s condition had long since recovered to its Peak.
However, since it wasn’t yet the agreed departure ti, basically everyone was in seclusion, waiting.
Zhou Yu was no exception.
Of course, during this half month, more than twenty additional people arrived one after another.
The desolate mountain beca lively.
On a day half a month later—
All of a sudden, two powerful auras descended without the slightest warning.
In an instant, everyone in the cave-dwellings snapped their eyes open and imdiately walked out.
Zhou Yu was no exception.
When Zhou Yu ca out, he saw two figures in the sky, imposing and majestic, slowly descending.
Judging by aura alone, it was easy to tell that both their Cultivations had already reached at least the Mid-stage Void Refining.
Seeing these two, everyone revealed looks of respect.
These two were Guardian Level figures from Fengyuan City.
One surnad Zhu, the other surnad Qin.
"Our respects to Protector Zhu!"
"Our respects to Protector Qin!"
With the arrival of the two protectors, everyone on the desolate mountain had already co out.
The number of people was over thirty in total.
Protector Zhu and Protector Qin swept a glance over the crowd below, and then Protector Zhu opened his mouth:
"Everyone."
"You are all top-tier geniuses carefully selected by my Fengyuan City."
"The fact that you made it here ans you’ve all completed your respective missions."
"Very good, congratulations."
Hearing this, everyone once again respectfully said:
"Many thanks, Protectors!"
Protector Zhu then said:
"Alright, I won’t waste words on pleasantries."
"Since almost everyone is here, next we need to plan out the treasure-taking operation."
"The greatest obstacle to obtaining the treasure this ti is the Earth Dragon Spirit Toads near the treasure vault!"
"I checked just now—there are thirty-three people present, all with Cultivation at Mid Divine Transformation Realm or above."
"Although that’s a bit fewer than we initially expected,"
"as long as we cooperate properly, there shouldn’t be any problem in successfully obtaining the treasure."
At these words, the eyes of everyone present lit up with excitent.
Anyone who could make it here was a genius in their own right.
And which genius wasn’t proud?
"However, there’s sothing I must say upfront."
"In this treasure hunt, each of you has your own objective."
"So need the Earth Dragon Spirit Toads’ Demon Cores, so need the Spirit Toads’ Inner Tendons, so need Spirit Toad Water and so on—I won’t list them one by one."
"What my brother and I need are the Earth Dragon Lingzhi guarded by the Earth Dragon Spirit Toads."
"Before departure, the two of us already tallied it up—there’s very little overlap in what everyone needs."
"Even where there is overlap, I had you privately work out how much each person would take, and you all reached a consensus."
"Now, the number of people who’ve co is a full third fewer than we estimated."
"So everyone should be able to get a bit more of what they want."
"The reason I’m saying all this has only one purpose."
"I hope you can work together sincerely. If anyone gives in to greed midway and tries to snatch soone else’s treasure, then don’t bla the two of us for being ruthless."
As soon as these words fell, a shocking killing intent erupted from Protector Zhu’s body.
In an instant, everyone felt their hearts sink.
After that, they all lowered their heads one after another.
Protector Zhu swept an icy gaze over the crowd, then nodded in satisfaction.
"Very good."
"It seems you all agree with my proposal."
"Then it’s settled."
"Next, let’s discuss the specific plan."
"Since the lead on the Earth Dragon Spirit Toads this ti was discovered by Han Ying, she’ll give everyone the detailed rundown."
Hearing this, Han Ying imdiately flew up and ca to Protector Zhu’s side.
She first bowed respectfully to Protector Zhu, then looked toward the crowd.
"Fellow Daoists, let briefly introduce the current situation with the Earth Dragon Spirit Toads."
"Earth Dragon Spirit Toads are a gregarious Alien Species; their groups vary in size."
"We’re fairly lucky this ti—the group of Earth Dragon Spirit Toads we’re going after is small, with fewer than fifteen individuals."
"Of course, fifteen Earth Dragon Spirit Toads is naturally not much of a problem for people like us."
"The troubleso part is that on the way to them, there’s a place we must pass through where there is also a large number of Golden-legged Centipedes and Shadow Insects."
"These Alien Species aren’t as strong individually as the Earth Dragon Spirit Toads, but their problem is in their sheer numbers."
"According to the information I have, there should be at least over five hundred of them in total."
"To deal with the Earth Dragon Spirit Toads at ease, we first have to take care of these two types of Alien Species."
Hearing this, the previously quiet group suddenly began exchanging words in low voices.
None of those present were inexperienced.
They all more or less knew the nas of Golden-legged Centipedes and Shadow Insects.
Precisely because of that, they were well aware that either of these Alien Species, once you fell into their encirclent, would not allow even a Void Refinent Realm expert to escape alive.
So simply wiping out these two Alien Species safely was already no easy task.
At this mont, more or less solemn expressions appeared on everyone’s faces.
Protector Zhu then spoke:
"There’s no need for everyone to worry. Before we set out, Captain Han already inford my brother and about this matter!"
"So while you were all carrying out your missions, the two of us have been preparing sothing specifically to deal with these two Alien Species."
"It is this item."
Protector Zhu waved his hand, and an object flashing with Qing Mang appeared before everyone...
