"Hiding?"
Yun Zhenting was a little confused.
Just like that?
Suddenly, his eyes lit up. He seemed to understand what the senior meant.
The Yun family didn't need to do anything now, they just had to hide in the cave with peace of mind. The senior would handle everything else.
If any residual power from the battle happened to affect the Yun family, the senior would strike to disperse it and protect them!
That's great!
The senior is so thoughtful!
I'm so touched!
Yun Zhenting's eyes welled up with tears. He was truly moved by the senior's "thoughtfulness."
Yun Zhenting knelt down and solemnly kowtowed to Hao Ren.
"Senior, thank you!"
[Ding! Congratulations to the host. Your friend "Yun Zhenting" has increased his favorability towards you by 1000!]
Hao Ren.
o( (⊙﹏⊙) )o
Mysterious!
It's utterly mysterious!
He had just said "hide," a rather irresponsible remark at that, and somehow Yun Zhenting was so moved. What was the meaning of him kneeling and kowtowing? What was the meaning of this surge in favorability?
Patriarch Yun, have you misunderstood something again!
Hao Ren was speechless. He felt like any word he said now would be "infinitely speculated" and "infinitely idealized" by Yun Zhenting, leading to some bizarre idea in Yun Zhenting's mind.
I can't handle this!
Hao Ren even felt a little sorry for Yun Zhenting.
Yun Zhenting, however, was deeply touched. After kowtowing, he stood up and bowed respectfully to Hao Ren again.
"Thank you for protecting the Yun family, senior. The Yun family has nothing to repay you with. From now on, the Yun family will offer you eighty percent of the profits from the spirit stone mine!"
After saying that, Yun Zhenting left, tearfully grateful.
Hao Ren.
o( (⊙﹏⊙) )o
Mysterious's mother opened the door for Mysterious, and Mysterious has arrived in full!
What on earth is going on!
Yun Zhenting, don't leave! Come back and explain clearly. How did I protect the Yun family? Why are you giving me an extra share of the profits? Have you misunderstood something?
...
Boom boom boom!
Bang bang bang!
Crack crack crack!
...
In the sky, the large-scale battle among a group of Golden Core cultivators finally concluded after a day and a night.
Hao Ren didn't know who won or lost. He vaguely saw many cultivators bleeding in the sky, falling from above, and occasionally saw cultivators riding on flying swords, turning into streaks of rainbow light, and fleeing rapidly.
Only when everything calmed down did Hao Ren emerge from the cave.
He looked up at the sky. The sky was dark and gloomy, as if it had also suffered a great injury from the day-and-night battle.
Hao Ren then glanced in the direction of the Yun family.
He wondered how the Yun family was doing now?
Alas!
He hoped they were alright!
Finally, Hao Ren glanced into the depths of the jungle.
That monkey is so clever, it shouldn't have been affected by the residual battle energy, right?
You stupid monkey, don't you die!
As Hao Ren was thinking, a familiar voice suddenly sounded.
Jiji, jiji jiji...
Holy crap!
Speak of the monkey, and it appears!
Hao Ren looked in the direction of the sound. He saw the monkey shuttling through the large trees, its movements agile and flexible, leaping and swinging. Soon, it scurried to Hao Ren's side.
The monkey was carrying a lotus leaf package. It grinned triumphantly.
Human, this time, I definitely found the right thing!
Hao Ren.
彡 (—＿—；) 彡
Speechless!
Utterly speechless!
Monkey, do you know what just happened? Golden Core cultivators were fighting a group battle, and many Golden Core overlords perished. At such a time, you bring me some mushrooms and wood ear fungus. Don't you think it's out of place!
Hao Ren didn't want to bother with the monkey.
The monkey, however, was full of excitement. It felt confident that this time, it was assured, without a doubt, that it had found the right thing.
The monkey peeled back the lotus leaf package layer by layer, finally revealing the contents to Hao Ren.
Hao Ren casually glanced at it.
As expected, the monkey didn't disappoint him. It still didn't find any Ganoderma.
Heh heh...
Hao Ren was about to tell the monkey to throw the stuff away when his gaze suddenly sharpened.
Wrong!
Although the contents of the lotus leaf package were not Ganoderma, but...
Hao Ren's eyes widened abruptly, and he carefully examined the contents of the lotus leaf package.
A tiny water droplet, crystal clear and transparent, exuding an incredibly profound life aura.
The entire tiny water droplet seemed to possess life, as if it were a living being. It could actually flow on its own.
The flow of the tiny water droplet defied all physical laws, flowing from bottom to top, forming a small tip. It would then flow back down after reaching a certain height. At first glance, it did indeed resemble the "Ganoderma sketch" Hao Ren had drawn.
What on earth is this thing?
At this moment, a system prompt sounded in Hao Ren's mind.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for discovering the super-grade heavenly treasure, "Tian Yi Sheng Shui!"]
[Item Name: Tian Yi Sheng Shui]
[Grade: Unknown]
[Detailed Description: This is a super-grade heavenly treasure, containing the purest life aura. It is a rare and precious treasure that is meant to be found by chance. It is said that the "Medicine King's Mansion" has a few drops in their collection. They use this item to cultivate the most exquisite and precious medicinal herbs, with excellent results!]
Hao Ren's eyes narrowed slightly.
A good thing!
Something that the system rates as a "super-grade" heavenly treasure, "Tian Yi Sheng Shui" is definitely a good thing.
Hao Ren reached out, intending to take the "Tian Yi Sheng Shui."
The monkey jumped up and blocked Hao Ren.
Jiji, jiji jiji...
The monkey bared its teeth, occasionally pointing its paw at the "Wu Xiang Gun."
Its meaning was all too clear.
If Hao Ren wanted to take the "Tian Yi Sheng Shui," he could, but he had to exchange it for the "Wu Xiang Gun."
At this moment, Hao Ren was in a great mood. He smiled and said.
"Alright, monkey, you did a good job today. Remember to bring me any more good things like this in the future! Here you go, I'll lend you the Wu Xiang Gun for a day!"
Saying that, Hao Ren handed the "Wu Xiang Gun" to the little spirit monkey king.
The little spirit monkey king joyfully took the "Wu Xiang Gun." It was so happy that it scratched its ears and cheeks, occasionally waving the "Wu Xiang Gun" and performing beautiful棍花 (staff twirls).
Seeing the monkey's "silly appearance," Hao Ren felt both amused and annoyed.
You silly monkey!
Such a top-grade heavenly treasure is worth less to it than the "Wu Xiang Gun."
Heh heh, so that's what they say, a monkey is just a monkey, no future!
Hao Ren carefully examined the "Tian Yi Sheng Shui." He could sense a powerful life aura from the water droplet. The life aura was constantly transforming the surrounding environment, making Hao Ren feel warm all over and incredibly comfortable.
So refreshing!
What a good thing!
According to the system's description, "Tian Yi Sheng Shui" is a good item used by the "Medicine King's Mansion" to cultivate rare medicinal herbs. Hao Ren wondered if he could also use "Tian Yi Sheng Shui" to cultivate medicinal herbs in the future.
Heh heh, that's a great idea!
As he was thinking, Hao Ren's gaze suddenly sharpened.
"Medicine King's Mansion"?
In the chaotic battle of Golden Core cultivators just now, wasn't one of the participating forces the "Medicine King's Mansion"?
Holy cow!
Could the "Tian Yi Sheng Shui" that the monkey found be a "delivery" from some Golden Core cultivator of the "Medicine King's Mansion"?
Possible!
Highly possible!
Without a second word, Hao Ren, carrying the "Tian Yi Sheng Shui," prepared to return to the cave. It was too dangerous outside. He should go back and hide. It would be troublesome if someone from the "Medicine King's Mansion" came looking for it.
The moment Hao Ren stepped into the cave, the monkey's "jiji" calls sounded from behind him.
Jiji, jiji jiji, jiji jiji...
