Chapter 36: Chapter 36: Xu i’s Sche
The three jade dallions each emitted a distinct-colored halo,
one with a misty purple aura, one with a milky white veil, and one with a lush green hue!
Ye Jingyu turned to look at Li Jizhou.
Li Jizhou showed no sign of interest.
"Should I go ahead and choose first then?"
Following the principle of letting the cannon fodder go first, Li Jizhou flipped his palm casually.
Ye Jingyu hesitated no longer and directly reached for the purple jade dallion.
As soon as Ye Jingyu’s hand touched the dallion, a flash of purple light appeared, and Ye Jingyu instantly vanished without a trace.
"Brother Yu!" Yang Yutong panicked and grabbed the white jade dallion without thinking.
The sa scene unfolded.
Eventually, only Li Jizhou and the lush green jade dallion remained.
"You are truly remarkable, with a first-class temperant. If not for the impending disaster, I would surely recomnd the Sect Leader to take you as a Direct Disciple. Without a doubt, the future of Qi Kingdom’s cultivation world might flourish because of you,
but alas... Heaven and Earth are indifferent, treating everything like straw dogs, and no matter what we do, we are no different.
Enough, take it quickly and leave early." Xu Jiuge smiled at Li Jizhou, sighed, and with a wave of his hand, the lush green jade pendant flew directly into Li Jizhou’s hand.
"Swish~" With a flash of green light, a spatial ripple occurred.
Upon opening his eyes again, a lush green pathway was in sight.
Li Jizhou steadied his mind, scanning his surroundings, only to find himself atop a mountain peak.
Beside the path was a stone tablet with the inscription: Spirit Jade Peak!
Recollecting so information about the Thunder Fla Sect, among its seventy-two peaks ranked in the top ten was indeed Spirit Jade Peak!
"Croak~ Croak~"
Only at this mont did he communicate via Spiritual Sense with Guagua, who had been nestled in the Spirit Pet Bag."
From the mont it entered this eerie secret realm, Guagua had been trembling in the Spirit Pet Bag.
Earlier, he thought it was rely frightened by the bizarre space,
but upon arriving here, Li Jizhou sensed that Guagua had transitioned from trembling to a state of extre terror.
It was as if mories agonizingly etched into its soul were being invoked.
"Have you been here before?" perceiving Guagua’s profound fear and its strenuous effort to make Li Jizhou take it away.
Li Jizhou increasingly felt sothing amiss.
"Could it be four years ago, when Guagua returned alone and gravely injured, it suffered tornt here?"
"Does that explain why it harbors a shadow of fear for this place?"
"Four years ago... when news of the Thunder Spirit Crystal Ore had just erged, limited only to the big shots of Inverted Mountain’s Central Dojo. How did Xu i sneak in?"
The fact that Guagua managed to co here four years ago indicates that Xu i went through the sa two stages of the assessnt as Li Jizhou, ultimately deciding to join forces with the Thunder Fla Sect, and she also took the green jade dallion!
"So... four years ago, only Guagua returned heavily injured, and Xu i was never heard from again... Could it be that Xu i t her end here?"
In an instant, Li Jizhou’s heart tightened.
Looking at the courtyard atop the peak, his eyes brimd with fear.
"How could the words of the deity’s thoughts be so unreliable? Could even the obsession be deceitful?" Li Jizhou murmured, and while contemplating descending the mountain, the array surrounding him was at least Tier Three, which he couldn’t break.
Just as he was feeling anxious and uneasy.
Suddenly, a voice filled with disappointnt and disdain echoed from the courtyard:
"Waobao, Waobao, where have you run off to this ti? Hurry back ho, or this ti Mommy will surely punish you, by chopping off your legs!"
"Croak~" Upon hearing the voice, Guagua in the Spirit Pet Bag trembled even more fiercely, nearly convulsing, and desperately pleaded with Li Jizhou to take it away."
"Hmm?" Li Jizhou was equally stunned.
Countless possibilities instantly flooded his mind!
"Wa..." Just as Li Jizhou’s thoughts were swirling, a still charming woman clad in red had already stepped out of the courtyard, gazing at Li Jizhou from afar.
"Have you found my Waobao?"
"Indeed, you’ve brought it back; how should I thank you? Besides the sect’s reward points, I must give you sothing extra."
The woman in red glanced at the Spirit Pet Bag hanging on Li Jizhou’s waist and was instantly overjoyed, thanking Li Jizhou while casually beckoning.
Originally trembling in the Spirit Pet Bag, Guagua was helplessly drawn out, eventually landing before the red-clad woman.
"Why are you so disobedient? Have I spoiled you too much usually? Do you know the trouble you’ve caused this ti?"
The woman imdiately lashed out at Guagua rcilessly.
Guagua lay prostrate on the ground, trembling violently, its large eyes fixed pleadingly on Li Jizhou a short distance away, as if begging for his help.
"I’m talking to you, do you even know your mistake?"
"Smack~"
The woman shouted angrily, a golden silk whip suddenly appearing in her hand, striking Guagua’s back with a sharp crack.
"Croak~" Guagua imdiately cried out in pain.
Soon, a familiar inch-long wound appeared on Guagua’s back.
Li Jizhou was very familiar with this wound.
Just like the night four years ago when Guagua returned gravely injured and on the edge of death.
"Thump~" Li Jizhou’s heart instantly increased its vigilance.
This scene before him seed like a repeat of four years ago.
If this continues, wouldn’t Li Jizhou et the sa fate as Xu i, with no resting place?
"Hmph, I’ll deal with you later." After lashing Guagua once, the woman looked at the bleeding wound, her expression involuntarily spasd, before turning her gaze to Li Jizhou."
"Thank you for bringing this useless thing back to . Besides the sect’s reward points, I’ll share half of this bottle of Celestial Pure Water with you. This was originally ant to elevate Waobao’s Pill Formation and further enhance the quality of Core Formation as the main ingredient to seek immortality. Now it seems there’s no chance, so I’ll split it with you, leaving the rest for it."
The woman took a jade bottle out of her storage bag."
"Oh~ Why’s half missing? Hmph, it must be because this useless thing wasted it. Eh, forget it, I’ll give all of it to you!"
With a dark face, she glared at Guagua, tossing the entire bottle to Li Jizhou."
The jade bottle in hand, Li Jizhou felt like he was dreaming!
Celestial Pure Water!
Is this really Celestial Pure Water?
It is rumored to increase the Core Formation chance by fifty percent, and enhance the Core Formation quality by eighty percent, initiating with a True Core-grade divine dicine!
If he had this divine dicine in a previous life, Core Formation would have been certain!
"This..." The unexpected delight left Li Jizhou montarily dazed; he promptly inspected the jade bottle with his Spiritual Sense, discovering that it was entirely ordinary, much like the black jade pendant handed down by Pharmacist Zheng, externally appearing mundane, leaving no clue about its contents inside.
"A bottle capable of holding such divine items as Celestial Pure Water isn’t ordinary either!" Li Jizhou nodded."
"Alright, your reward has been given, you should leave now. I need to properly discipline this useless thing." After saying this, the woman turned toward the despairing Guagua."
"Leave?" Li Jizhou abruptly reacted, staring at the woman and Guagua."
He can leave now?
Then... could it an... four years ago... Xu i also left alive?
In an instant, Li Jizhou considered a possibility.
Could it be!
Xu i’s actions all had a purpose?
