Chapter 684

Lu Zongkui laughed loudly, "I couldn't tell you were such a man of affection and righteousness; I like this personality of yours! Alright, I will arrange for two Blood Battle Hall cultivators to come here and be on duty for you!"

"Their reward will be deducted from the batch of sect contribution points given to you!"

Hearing him say this, Lin Zhangqing finally felt completely at ease.

With Lu Zongkui's guarantee, at the very least, there wouldn't be any incidents of his backyard being raided.

As for the matter of killing Wei Zhanggeng, he also had to race against time!

Or perhaps he could consider using the method he once used against him to deal with him in return.

Perhaps the Black Lotus Shadow Pavilion would be very happy to accept such a task; he just didn't know if they had a rule against assassinating one's former employer.

He hurriedly collected his wandering thoughts and thanked him earnestly, "Thank you, Uncle-Master Lu! Now this disciple has no worries behind me!"

Hearing this, Lu Zongkui also said rarely earnestly, "Don't worry! I will have people help you look after your family members."

"By the way, there are still about two months until the Thunder Fall Secret Realm truly opens, excluding the reserved travel time."

"Counting from now, you still have a month and a half to prepare the things needed for the secret realm trip."

"At that time, I will arrange for people from the Blood Battle Hall to come here and be on duty for you one day in advance."

"On the second day, you just go directly to the square outside the Inner Sect Affairs Hall and meet up with me!"

Lin Zhangqing nodded and said, "Thank you, Uncle-Master, this disciple understands!"

Lu Zongkui thought for a moment and said, "Give me your identity jade token; I will give you the promised sect contribution points."

"A total of 120,000 contribution points. Keep 12,000 contribution points to hire two Blood Battle Hall cultivators for three months, and I will transfer the rest to you! As for the Demon Hunting Merit promised to you, it will need to be redeemed after you return!"

After hearing this, Lin Zhangqing felt a little pleasantly surprised; these contribution points could be considered a free benefit.

As for the statement about redeeming the Demon Hunting Merit after returning, he could also understand it, so he hurriedly handed over his identity jade token.

After Lu Zongkui fiddled with it, he returned it to Lin Zhangqing.

He scanned it and saw that there were already 108,000 contribution points on it, and he couldn't help but laugh.

This way, he could go to the Affairs Hall to exchange for a few more defensive magic treasures. In any case, Lin Zhangqing had never dared to forget the formidable nature of third-tier thunder-attribute demonic beasts! So he said with a smile, "Uncle-Master, these contribution points of yours came really timely!"

Lu Zongkui rolled his eyes at him and then said, "Alright, alright, if there's nothing else, I'm leaving. You should race against time to prepare!"

Lin Zhangqing agreed and respectfully sent Lu Zongkui to the valley entrance. After watching him leave by air, he returned to his courtyard.

After returning to the pavilion, he sat down and began to rearrange his plan. The fourth-tier Wood Tooth Crystal still had to be used, and as quickly as possible.

Then he would use the remaining time to refine a few more defensive magic treasures, so the trip to the Thunder Fall Secret Realm would naturally be much safer! After repeatedly deliberating a few times and confirming there were no major problems, Lin Zhangqing left Cuiyun Valley.

He flew directly toward the Affairs Hall; he had to exchange for a few defensive magic treasures first, and then he would begin seclusion!

Familiar with the road, he arrived at the Affairs Hall and found a queue to line up in. When it was Lin Zhangqing's turn, he discovered that the person inside the counter was precisely the Junior Sister who had reminded him before.

So he smiled and said, "Junior Sister, long time no see. I want to exchange for a few third-tier defensive magic treasures, five elements or thunder attribute are both fine!"

That Junior Sister gave him a resentful look and then said, "It hasn't been that long. I saw you the last two times you came, Senior Brother Lin, only you didn't see me!"

Hearing such resentful words, Lin Zhangqing could only laugh dryly to cover his embarrassment.

Then he said with a smile, "Sorry! It's my fault. In the future, if I come here to exchange for spirit objects, I guarantee I will definitely come to you, Junior Sister!"

Hearing him say this, that Junior Sister beamed and said, "My name is Song Qingdai. Senior Brother, remember my name, and also your promise just now!"

Lin Zhangqing hadn't expected this Junior Sister's name to be quite pleasant, so he nodded and said:

"Good, good, good. I've remembered both the name and the promise. Hurry and help me find the things I want!"

Only then did Song Qingdai satisfy him, picking up a jade slip to inquire.

After a while, she asked hesitantly, "Senior Brother Lin, there is a defensive ancient treasure that was just put up, the Black Water Sky-Defending Flag. Do you want it? But the price is relatively expensive; exchanging for it requires 50,000 sect contribution points. However, I read the annotation on it, saying its defensive power can rival a fourth-tier defensive magic treasure!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhangqing was overjoyed and, without any hesitation, said immediately, "I want it, hurry and help me get it!"

Song Qingdai immediately fiddled with the Boundless Jade Wall and then asked again, "Then do you still want the other third-tier defensive magic treasures?"

Lin Zhangqing nodded and said, "I do. I should have enough sect contribution points, you don't need to worry!"

"Give me one middle-grade defensive magic treasure each for the five elements and thunder attributes. If there are thunder-attribute offensive magic treasures, give me one of those too!"

Song Qingdai nodded and continued to inquire. After a short while, she said, "Alright, I've found a few more for you!"

"The first one is the Hundred-Scale Golden Python Shield, a third-tier middle-grade magic treasure with gold and water dual attributes."

"Exchanging for it requires 14,000 sect contribution points."

"The second one is the Thunder Profound Turtle Armor, a third-tier middle-grade magic treasure with thunder and earth dual attributes! Exchanging for it requires 22,000 sect contribution points!"

"The third one is the previous Green Thunder Gourd, also a third-tier middle-grade magic treasure with wood and thunder dual attributes! Exchanging for it only requires 18,000 sect contribution points."

"These are the three. How does Senior Brother feel about them?"

Lin Zhangqing calculated quickly in his heart; all of them added up to 104,000 contribution points, just within the range he could bear.

So he nodded and said, "Can do, just these! Hurry up and get all of these!"

Song Qingdai agreed and quickly left the counter to help him get the items! The reason Lin Zhangqing was in such a hurry was because of that defensive ancient treasure.

Although he hadn't seen the actual object yet, according to the introduction in ancient books, he also knew this was a very good thing.

And the quantity was very scarce; at the very least, having cultivated for so long, this was the first time he had encountered this kind of treasure.
