Chapter 2027: Blood Ties Are Colder Than Plain Water
Fengxi is in a very bad mood right now.
Family members, does anyone understand? We've ended up getting fleeced ourselves!
Besides feeling bad about the money, she also felt ashamed!
It's an utter disgrace that this Pixiu (a mythical creature believed to bring wealth) has become a money-scattering maiden!
If it were anyone else, they might have broken down for a while after encountering this situation, but Fengxi quickly adjusted her mindset.
What's done is done, so let's try to look on the bright side!
Everything is in my favor!
"Grandpa, don't you understand? No matter how big the pie in the sky is, it's not as filling as taking a bite!"
Although I've already made a contract with the strange fish, I don't know when I'll be able to make a contract with the Guixu Secret Realm. I'll just try to get some resources first.
As for the stuff I gave to those jinxes, consider it advance payment for their wages. Sooner or later, they'll help me earn it back! Double the amount!
Just as Xue Shihuan was about to say that she was being stubborn, Feng Xi sighed and said:
"Grandpa, are you really my grandfather? Since you've thought of all this, why didn't you remind me?"
Are you deliberately trying to make a fool of me?
I never imagined you were this kind of grandfather!
This really breaks my heart!
"The bond of blood is thicker than water, but it's colder than plain boiled water..."
Blood Devourer: "...I, didn't I just think of that myself?!"
Alright, even the wisest can make a mistake. It's normal for smart guys like us to slip up occasionally. Otherwise, how would the fools survive?!
Fengxi chuckled: "What you said makes sense. We should sometimes consider other people's feelings when we do things. If there are no mistakes at all, they will feel even more inferior!"
Commander Liu: “…”
You two are definitely related!
Fengxi spoke with a seemingly open-minded attitude, but she was still a little heartbroken.
However, because they had been so diligent these past few days, they had thoroughly looted the cave, and it was too late for regrets.
The next morning, just as they were preparing to go to the Body Tempering Cave, Venerable Sikong summoned them.
"The Shadow Guard Camp is preparing to open the Guixu Secret Realm at 9:00 AM, and they're opening it at the highest difficulty level."
Apart from Dark One and Dark Five, the top ten Shadow Guards will all enter the Guixu Secret Realm for trials.
After discussing it, the Shadow Lord and the Palace Master have decided that the ten of you will also enter the Ruins of Return Secret Realm. I will take you there now.
Chang Xingjian and his companions were immediately shocked!
Trial?
This is clearly just sending them to be abused!
The Shadow Guard Battalion suffered a major setback before, so this time they've really gone all out!
They actually sent eight of the top ten shadow guards!
Not only are they all Tribulation Transcending cultivators, but some of them have even higher cultivation levels than that Commander Wan. Let alone ten of them, even a hundred wouldn't be enough!
I don't know what the Palace Master Fu of Chengdao Hall was thinking. Isn't he pushing them into a fire pit?!
Venerable Sikong didn't quite understand either, but since he was given orders from above, he could only obey.
Furthermore, he felt that the eight shadow guards were at most just venting their anger, and wouldn't actually kill Liu Yiyi and the others.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Liu Yiyi.
Unlike the others who were terrified, she was somewhat...excited, and even a little eager to try.
Venerable Sikong: "..."
This girl's courage has dried up; it's bigger than a millstone!
Feng Xi is showing off with Xue Shi Huan right now!
"Grandpa, do you see? Life is about giving and receiving. I just gave away a small amount of money, and this big fortune came right away!"
I was just worrying about how to make a contract with the Ruins of Return, and it just delivered itself to my doorstep!
Crucially, they also conveniently gifted eight of the top ten shadow guards!
If I can subdue them, I'll be even more certain of eliminating that old man!
Xue Shihuan sneered, "They are all absolutely devoted to the Bird Alliance Leader, how could you possibly subdue them? Don't try to steal a chicken and end up losing the rice instead!"
Fengxi said in a cool voice, "If we can't steal the chicken, then we'll kill it! Chicken meat is always more valuable than rice!"
Blood Devouring World: "..."
[That’s all for today, see you tomorrow! ]
