Chapter 73: Chapter 71 Devil Cultivators [Please Subscribe]_3
Lu Yi smiled and glanced at the corpse on the ground before saying, “Junior Brother Li, take a close look to confirm if this is the devil cultivator.”
Li Qing nodded and carefully examined the body of the devil cultivator along with the middle-aged cultivator.
Afterward, Li Qing came up to Lu Yi and nodded, saying, “It is indeed this scoundrel!”
Lu Yi smiled, “With this, the task is considered complete.”
Lu Yi internally complained that the task was really time-consuming; he had waited for eight days here. The journey here had taken a week, and it would take another week to return, totaling almost half a month back and forth.
Li Qing smiled and said, “We have Lu Yi to thank for that.”
While the trio was chatting, Qin Fang, Jiang Fan, and Bai Yulong joined them.
Seeing the body on the ground, both Jiang Fan and Bai Yulong breathed a sigh of relief.
If this devil cultivator had gotten away, who knows how long they would have had to wait before encountering him again.
For them, it would mean spending quite a bit of time waiting.
Of course, Lu Yi suspected that Bai Yulong would be more than happy to stay even longer.
After all, he could continue to visit the brothels.
Once everyone confirmed this was the devil cultivator, they returned to the Royal Palace.
……
In the deep mountains hundreds of kilometers from the Capital of Mohe Country, there was a huge cave.
In the center of the cave lay an enormous Blood Pool, with boiling blood and piercing screams as if they were the unwilling cries of aggrieved souls.
Just then, the Blood Pool exploded with a bang, and an icy-faced middle-aged man burst out, his expression full of gloom and anger, his mouth twitching.
“Damn it! My Blood Puppet!! Whether you’re a disciple of the White Cloud Sect or not, you’re merely at the Qi Cultivation Realm!”
His eyes filled with insane murderous intent, and the blood around him churned even more violently.
……
The next morning, at the gate of the Capital city.
The Monarch of Mohe Country, Mo Ling, along with several princes and high-ranking officials, as well as Li Qing and others, were all present at the city gates to see off Lu Yi and the others. The officer who had greeted them previously was not there; Lu Yi learned that it seemed he had been executed for corruption.
Having completed their task, naturally, Lu Yi and his companions planned to return to their sect for cultivation.
Mo Ling, looking at Lu Yi, bowed gratefully, “Thank you, three Immortal Masters, for bringing that devil cultivator to justice!”
Lu Yi smiled, “This is what we should do.”
Then, he glanced at Mo Ling and said, “Regarding the disaster relief, you’ve done a good job these past few days.”
As he spoke, Lu Yi conjured a porcelain bottle in his hand and tossed it to Mo Ling.
“This is your reward. Keep up the good work, and when I return, if I see the citizens of Mohe Country leading prosperous lives, the reward will be even better than this.”
In the past few days, the Monarch of Mohe Country had indeed done a commendable job in disaster relief, and Lu Yi had seen the number of refugees decrease.
Moreover, he indeed needed to return to his sect; he couldn’t just stay here for a single task.
Mo Ling hastily caught the porcelain bottle, a look of surprise in his eyes at Lu Yi’s words.
Something even better than three Top-grade Qi Condensation Elixirs?! What kind of treasure could that be?
He nodded hurriedly, his expression resolute, “I will certainly take good care of the people! I’ll make sure they have a good life!”
Lu Yi nodded, said his farewells to Li Qing and the others, and then set off with Jiang Fan and Bai Yulong, all riding on Unihorn Spirit Horses.
On the road, Bai Yulong reluctantly looked back at the Capital and sighed, “Ah, it’s a pity about those girls. Who knows when we’ll see them next time.”
Jiang Fan glanced at Bai Yulong and chuckled, “If you can’t bear to leave, you could stay; Lu Yi and I will head back.”
Bai Yulong turned serious and said, “Girls are merely a diversion; the true path for us cultivators is the ascent to immortality! I, Bai Yulong, will surely advance to the Golden Core and even the Nascent Soul Realm!”
Lu Yi looked at him but didn’t scorn Bai Yulong; instead, he looked towards his own stat panel.
With the disaster relief mission complete, he wanted to see what reward he had received.
[Task]
Disaster Relief in Mohe Country (Completed)
The reward depends on the level of disaster relief.
Reward: Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures Glazed Jade, Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures Golden Blue Stone, 20 drops of Millennium Spirit Dew.
Would you like to claim the reward: Yes/No
Lu Yi, seeing the reward on the panel, was somewhat surprised.
The reward was substantial.
So, just for spending three Top-grade Qi Condensation Elixirs, he had obtained such an abundance of treasures; this deal was a massive profit.
Glazed Jade and Golden Blue Stone were rare Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, which could be used as the primary materials for Artifacts or fused into Magic Artifacts to enhance their Level.
However, that required skill in Artifact Refining, and Lu Yi knew nothing about it. He could take these materials to the Artifact Refining Elder at the sect later on and have them help craft Artifacts.
As for the Millennium Spirit Dew, there was no need to elaborate; a whole 20 drops, and with that, the total he had exceeded 50 drops.
Until now, Lu Yi had been using Centennial Spirit Dew for cultivation, but as his Cultivation Base progressed, his need for Centennial Spirit Dew increased. At this rate, he might not have enough and would need to use Millennium Spirit Dew for cultivation.
More importantly, the real value of the Centennial Spirit Dew wasn’t for cultivation but for improving talent.
Lu Yi had been using the Centennial Spirit Dew to significantly enhance his cultivation talent. However, now the Centennial Spirit Dew could no longer improve his talent; it had reached a Limit.
Perhaps, using the Millennium Spirit Dew would be the proper way to continue enhancing his talent.
The remaining Centennial Spirit Dew was perfect for taking back and giving some to Old Lu and his mother, allowing them to improve their talent as well.
Lu Yi placed all the rewards into his Interspatial Ring, and with laughter and conversation, he traveled towards the sect with Bai Yulong and Jiang Fan.
