Chapter 667 - I Promise They Can’t Go
“That’s right, it’s the Chaos Green Lotus. Even though it is considered one of the top 10 connate Spirit Roots, its value far surpasses the value of the other nine. I invited everyone over for the Chaos Green Lotus,” Ji Hongsen said.
Since Di Jiu had the Ninth Dao Law and the Sacred Yin Pearl, he was not very interested in the Chaos Green Lotus. However, he realized that while everyone was in a daze after hearing about the Chaos Green Lotus, Tang Xitan, who was prepared to leave, also breathed heavily.
Di Jiu could understand what they were thinking. Would he have made his current achievements if he had not obtained the Ninth Dao Law? Everyone treated the Chaos Green Lotus like the Ninth Dao Law that had helped him. No matter who obtained the Chaos Green Lotus, their future achievements would be inestimable.
Di Jiu was silently glad about his luck. If he had not been lucky enough to obtain the Ninth Dao Law, how would he have had the chance to sit with these people? Since he had seen it, he could not let the Green Lotus slip by.
Ji Hongsen deliberately stopped and sneered at everyone’s expression.
After a few seconds passed and everyone calmed down, Ji Hongsen added, “Fellow Daoists, since the Chaos Green Lotus grows in a very strange place, I can’t do anything alone. Therefore, I need everyone’s cooperation to obtain the Chaos Green Lotus.”
“Insular Lord Ji, I have a few questions. First, where does the Chaos Green Lotus grow? Second, since there is only one of it but so many of us, who will take it?” a withered, yellow-faced man said with cupped fists.
If this person had not spoken, Di Jiu would have been unaware of his presence. Once he spoke, Di Jiu could sense his powerful cultivation. He was definitely a late-stage Primordial Chaos expert.
Furthermore, this person had a somewhat strange nomological fluctuation around him, as though he was carrying a kind of law that stripped away life-force. As long as one was around him, this kind of nomological aura could sweep away all life-force.
“Ha ha… I’ll explain Daoist Wu’s words. This place is not in the void, but in the Void Castle. The Chaos Green Lotus grows underneath the Void Castle…”
Di Jiu took a deep breath. He had seen too many vengeful people, but it was the first time he’d heard of someone like Wu Luo.
However, Di Jiu very soon guessed that his ruthlessness was very likely related to his cultivation technique.
By now, Ji Hongsen had led them to a huge square where a flying boat had stopped. He led them aboard the flying boat before turning his head to say, “Everyone, let’s move together. This flying boat can arrive there in the shortest time possible.”
Di Jiu once again slowed down his pace and sent a voice transmission to Tang Xitan. “Senior Sister Xitan, do you have any top-notch escape talismans?”
“I have one, but I’m sure that once I activate it, I’ll be captured back by Wu Luo or Ji Hongsen before I reach a safe zone,” Tang Xitan said firmly.
Di Jiu chuckled. “Senior Sister Xitan, don’t worry. When I say we can leave later, you will immediately activate the talisman and escape. Don’t worry, I assure you that nobody will capture you back.”
“Ah…” Tang Xitan, who was shocked, looked at Di Jiu in confusion. “What about you?”
Di Jiu looked at Ji Hongsen and Wu Luo ahead. “When there’s good stuff like the Chaos Green Lotus on the line, how could I miss this chance? You don’t have to worry about Wu Luo and Ji Hongsen finding your Phoenix Clan. I assure you that they can’t go.”
Di Jiu knew what he was talking about and was sure a fight would occur eventually.
“As long as I leave, I will not be afraid of them.” Tang Xitan was worried that the Phoenix Clan did not know about this. Since he had let her go back to the Phoenix Clan, Wu Luo could not plot against her clan.
“That’ll do,” Di Jiu said without hesitation.
