Chapter 436

~8 min read 1,471 words

Everyone around the square immediately gathered their gaze on him.

"Then I won't be polite."

Long Xuan tidied his clothes and walked onto the stage with a smile. His goal was clear. He went straight to the coffee tree and, in the surprised and puzzled eyes of everyone, took the coffee tree away.

"This..."

"Little friend, this tree looks like it contains the spiritual power of Heaven-grade spirit medicine, but it has no effect, and its value is far from the highest among all treasures."

"Why don't you look at something else?" Cha Shan revealed a look of doubt and kindly persuaded.

"No! I'll choose this tree."

As his words fell, Long Xuan didn't say anything more and walked slowly off the stage.

Seeing him choose this tree, those with lower rankings, although puzzled in their hearts, also let out a long sigh of relief. This person chose the most useless treasure, wouldn't the more valuable treasures be cheaper for them? They couldn't ask for more.

"Why did you choose this tree? In my opinion, this tree is the lowest value treasure here. It's truly a waste of the opportunity to choose treasures first."

As soon as Long Xuan came down, Shui Lao couldn't wait to ask via soul transmission.

"I have my own uses. As for the specific use, Shui Lao doesn't need to ask." Long Xuan answered simply without continuing to say more.

Shui Lao was thoughtful. Of course, he knew that this tree had a huge effect on Long Xuan, otherwise a fool would want this thing.

However, he let go of all treasures and didn't choose, but chose this tree. This is enough to show that the value of this tree in his heart has exceeded all treasures.

Shui Lao couldn't help but be curious. Could it be that he had already discovered the effect of this tree? Once the effect of this tree was discovered, it was a true Heaven-grade spirit medicine value.

"You should be careful next. Although you didn't put Heavenly Water on your body, you brewed tea with Heavenly Water, which has already been sensed by Shui Wuqing."

"The two of us shouldn't have any contact next, so as not to let him guess my identity." Shui Lao transmitted via soul again.

"Understood, I will be careful."

Long Xuan glanced at someone with his peripheral vision and became vigilant in his heart.

In the River God Secret Realm, both Gu Kings and Gu insects will fall to the Spirit Sea Stage realm. Under such circumstances, what Gu Kings have more than Spirit Sea Stage Gu cultivators is only rich combat experience and powerful souls.

Under such circumstances, Long Xuan was confident that he really didn't need to fear this Shui Wuqing. Even if he couldn't beat him, he could at least protect himself.

Once joining forces with Shui Lao, this battle was almost a sure win.

What truly worried him was whether the Two Yuan Heavy Water left by Shui Wuqing after killing him belonged to himself or Shui Lao.

Whether Shui Lao had any ideas about this Two Yuan Heavy Water, and whether there would be an uneven distribution of spoils between the two after killing Shui Wuqing, this was what he was truly worried about.

Don't look at the fact that the two have always had a good relationship, like a friendship between generations. But he had never trusted this Shui Lao from beginning to end. The reason why Shui Lao generously gave Heavenly Water to himself was because he couldn't suppress Heavenly Water with his previous strength.

After reshaping his body, Shui Lao was just a small Spirit Sea Stage early-stage Gu cultivator. Even if his means were heaven-defying, it was impossible to control Heavenly Water.

But what about after he recovered to the Gu King realm? Would he ask for Heavenly Water back? Was he really willing to give up such a heaven-defying treasure?

"Hmph! He'd better not have any crooked ideas. Does he really think that the pills he refined are fine if he doesn't eat them?"

Long Xuan found a hidden position and sat down, waiting quietly for the tea sacrifice activity to begin.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

"Ancestor, aren't you a friendship between generations with that person? Joining forces with him to deal with Shui Wuqing is enough, why look for the younger generation."

Shui Juanyun looked at the old man beside him with a frown and said via soul transmission.

"We are of the same clan. Even if I didn't see you, it's fine. Since I saw you, how can cooperating with an outsider be as reassuring as cooperating with a clansman."

"What's more, he has One Yuan Heavy Water on him and has the intention of coveting Two Yuan Heavy Water. We are destined not to cooperate together."

"One Yuan Heavy Water is the holy water that my clan has guarded for generations. No matter how good my relationship with him is, I can never let the holy water of my clan flow out, otherwise I, Shui Wuque, would truly become a sinner of the clan."

Upon hearing this, Shui Juanyun was shocked and hurriedly said: "Ancestor, have you already given One Yuan Heavy Water to him?"

"How could that be? If I were him, I would definitely kill you. I can't guarantee that you won't ask for Heavenly Water back after recovering to the Gu King realm."

"Hmph!" Shui Lao snorted coldly: "Kill me? He never had a chance from beginning to end."

"Before I was out of trouble, even if I couldn't beat him, I could self-destruct Heavenly Water and die with him."

"Do you really think I'm stupid for giving Heavenly Water to him?"

"At that time, I was at the early stage of Spirit Gathering after recovering my body. He could kill me at will after subduing Heavenly Water to eliminate future troubles. How could I not guard against this hand."

"I am a person who has died once, so how could I gamble on a person's character in the face of life and death."

"To tell you the truth, the reason why I helped him subdue Heavenly Water has two purposes."

"One is for self-protection. When I helped him subdue Heavenly Water, I did something to Heavenly Water, which can make Heavenly Water lose control in his body at any time."

"Once he has any ideas unfavorable to me, I dare to guarantee that the first one to die will definitely be him."

"The second is to pit Shui Wuqing. After Shui Wuqing knows that he has One Yuan Heavy Water on him, he will definitely kill him and take away One Yuan Heavy Water."

"Once Shui Wuqing takes away this One Yuan Heavy Water that I have done something to, whether he tries to subdue it or carries it on his body, he will definitely die."

"This scheme can kill two birds with one stone."

"But this child is very cunning. I don't know if he has seen through my conspiracy. He has always put Heavenly Water on his clone."

"By then, once Heavenly Water loses control, it will only be a clone that dies, and his main body will be fine."

"If this child insists on taking action against me at the cost of a clone's death, I really can't guarantee that I can win steadily."

"So I have to join forces with you. You are a once-in-a-hundred-years genius of my clan. If you and I join forces, it is enough to kill him or Shui Wuqing."

"As long as it is done, you can return to the clan, and I will also help you ascend to the position of Clan Head."

Shui Juanyun's gaze flashed, revealing a look of being moved, and after a moment of silence, he finally said: "How do you need me to do it!"

Shui Lao laughed: "I invited you to travel with the two of us on the grounds that you are my clansman. The purpose is to let you get closer to him, preferably to become friends with him."

"Currently, my plan has succeeded. Through many days of getting along, your relationship with him is very good now."

"Even if he doesn't trust you 100%, his guard against you is bound to be very low. Once you sneak attack him, you will definitely gain something."

"Maybe you don't need to take action. He might die in Shui Wuqing's hands first."

"Wait until the River God Secret Realm, we will decide after looking at the situation."

The two were secretly plotting here, but Shui Lao didn't know that Long Xuan and Shui Juanyun had already had a grudge, and how could Long Xuan trust him? The dark card Shui Lao laid out would eventually return without success. (End of chapter)
