“General Luo, you should be fully aware of the status of the Weapon Refining Sect,” Hun Fei’s expression darkened. “We shoulder the burden of protecting the people of this continent, and every decade we face a war with the demons from a different race. If the blue sky fruit is in our hands, it would provide the Weapon Refining Sect with more capability to protect everyone. This is considered a good thing for the people, but you would rather try to benefit from this? How can an inconsiderate and selfish person like you even try to bargain with me? If you do not want to be known as an everlasting sinner, hand over the blue sky fruit to me!”
These words uttered by Hun Fei made it seem as if the Weapon Refining Sect demanded the blue sky fruit for the sake of protecting the people of the continent. Hence, not only could General Luo not reject the claim, he should be grateful for the opportunity to be of help. However, if he chose not to hand over the blue sky fruit, it would be considered as treason, and chose to cause harm to the people!
“Hahaha!”
General Luo howled with laughter, as a mocking smile formed on his face, “So this is how the Weapon Refining Sect behaves? All this talk about virtue and morality, working hard for the people, is nothing but a ploy to accomplish your personal ambitions. At the end of the day, you people of the Weapon Refining Sect are just a bunch of pretentious villains. If the lot of you were really considerate of the common people, why don’t you want to fork out the ten million gold coins? Or has the Weapon Refining Sect stooped to such level of poverty.”
“Clap clap clap!”
Just as he finished uttering those words, a crisp applause sounded from outside of the hall. When everyone turned their heads and looked in the direction of the applause, under the sunlight, a slim figure slowly sauntered in.
The bright rays of light fell on her body and unexpectedly radiated a sense of unspeakable beauty.
“That is correct,” the young woman smiled and said, “The Weapon Refining Sect has stooped to this level of poverty, that they do not even have ten million gold coins. Tsk tsk, if word had gone out about this, I think no one would want to join the Weapon Refining Sect in the future. I finally understand why my elder brother would reject you in front of all the cultivators”
“Gu Ruoyun!”
Hun Fei’s face turned sour and unsightly, his clenched fist cracking out loud. He would never ever forget, Gu Xiaosheng and this garbage had rejected the Weapon Refining Sect’s invitation not long ago.
Forget about Gu Xiaosheng, he was very talented and was accepted by Ling Zong as an apprentice, but who the heck did she think she was? She was only a piece of useless garbage, and to think that she would actually have this kind of courage.
No, this was not courage, it was stupidity!
“Hmph, I was just thinking about looking for you. Who knew that you would actually deliver yourself over first! ” Hun Fei sneered, “You are just in time. You can either follow me to the Weapon Refining Sect later, or you can choose to hand over all your mental energy to the lady of my household.”
A mental energy is said to be everything a Martial Warrior has. If the mental energy has depleted, it would not necessarily mean the loss of a life. However it was definitive that there would be no way to continue with the cultivation, it might even render the warrior retarded.
Therefore, after hearing this, General Luo’s face changed, he completely understood what this meant.
“Oh?” Gu Ruoyun cocked her eyebrow and chuckled, “Why do I need to contribute my mental energyto the lady of the Weapon Refining Sect? It seems that there would only be disadvantages for me with no advantage at all, I do not think that I am at that level of stupidity.”
“The Weapon Refining Sect might not obtain the blue sky fruit but we will definitely have your mental energy.”
In actual reality, Hun Fei was completely agitated by Gu Ruoyun, which caused him to automatically ignore Shi Yun’s plan and warning. All that he knew was, this good-for-nothing garbage rejected the Weapon Refining Sect, so he should not make it easy for her!
“Gu Ruoyun, you are more aware of the extent of your body’s capability, more than anyone else. You should know that the spiritual ocean within your body is way larger than anyone else, and based on your natural capabilities, there is no way for you to breakthrough to reach the Martial Warrior level, even in a decade. No matter how hard you work and effort you put in, you are still a piece of garbage!” Hun Fei looked at Gu Ruoyun and said mockingly, “Since a piece of garbage like you cannot help others, you do not serve any purpose at all, then why don’t you sacrifice for the people of this continent?”
