Chapter 1733: Chapter 1733: Joy Turns to Sorrow for Liu Ziru (4/7)

After Ye Qiubai brought Xu Cang Yuan and Bai Qingxin to the Dark Domain residence,

he recounted the events of Sky Heart Valley once more.

He also spoke about what happened in The Cottage, including how the Sky Heart Beast became Lu Changsheng’s Drug Tester.

Liu Ziru let out a loud cheer.

Woo-hoo!!!

Which left Xu Cang Yuan and Bai Qingxin utterly confused.

This reaction seemed off.

Given Senior Lu’s ability in Alchemy, having someone to share his medicinal pills with should’ve been a cause for dismay, right?

But this looked more like a celebration!

He was just short of pulling out some wine to start the party!

However, just as the two of them had this thought, they saw Liu Ziru bring out several bottles of wine and called out loudly, “Come! Let’s have a celebration feast! Huh, celebrate what? Of course, it’s to celebrate my temporary escape from misery!”

Then, Ye Qiubai timely took out a space brocade bag and handed it to Liu Ziru with a stifled laugh, “Oh right, Uncle Liu, this is something master asked me to bring to you.

He said these are newly refined medicinal pills and wants you to give them a taste.”

Liu Ziru, who had just taken a big gulp of wine, sprayed it out immediately upon hearing that, even with liquid shooting out of his nose!

One couldn’t tell if it was the burn from the alcohol passing through his throat and nasal passages,

or the thought of having to test more pills that distressed him.

Or perhaps it was a bit of both.

Tears suddenly started streaming down Liu Ziru’s face.

Then, as if he just thought of something, Liu Ziru grabbed Ye Qiubai and put an arm over his shoulder, leaning close to whisper in his ear with a flattering smile, “Qiubai, Uncle Liu has a favor to ask of you.”

One could easily guess what Liu Ziru was thinking, and Ye Qiubai helplessly said, “It’s not that I don’t want to help you, Uncle Liu, but master has already told me in advance that if you don’t take them, it’ll be immediately noticeable. After all, your talent is obvious, and there’s no way you could advance so quickly without these pills.”

Liu Ziru: “…”

He felt like he’d just been struck by a double blow.

Ye Qiubai looked at Liu Ziru’s resentful gaze and whispered, “Or, Uncle Liu, you could choose not to take them, just improve your strength before master arrives, that’s all.”

I…

Liu Ziru really wanted to loudly proclaim that it would be no problem at all.

But he just couldn’t get the words out.

Pushing out a few precious tears, he took the brocade bag from Ye Qiubai’s hand and walked to the side to silently start eating them.

He too wished to be defiant and indomitable for once!

But he… really couldn’t do it!

Xu Cang Yuan, watching this scene, couldn’t help but ask, “Little Ye, why does he seem so opposed to taking Senior Lu’s refined pills? Senior Lu’s pills are the sort that people dream of getting their hands on, and others would be thrilled for a long time with just one.”

Ye Qiubai wore a bizarre expression as he replied, “If Senior Xu keeps watching, he’ll understand.”

And with that,

after Liu Ziru consumed a few pills, he started convulsing on the ground with strange expressions, his bones making crackling noises, even letting saliva and a yellow liquid flow unchecked from his mouth…

Though his aura was indeed rising rapidly.

And his realm was breaking through, even attracting a lightning tribulation…

But witnessing Liu Ziru in such a state,

Xu Cang Yuan and Bai Qingxin suddenly understood why he was so reluctant about Lu Changsheng’s medicinal pills…

For a moment, they recalled the Sky Heart Beast.

Good grief.

Thinking of how happy the Sky Heart Beast was when it heard it could receive Lu Changsheng’s pills,

they couldn’t help but silently mourn what lay ahead in its life.

At this time,

Mu Fusheng and Jiu Bailu walked over and asked Ye Qiubai, “Big Senior Brother, how about the situation on your end?”

Ye Qiubai recounted everything with a smile.

“All good then…” Then, glancing at Liu Ziru, who was lying unconscious on the ground in an ostentatiously dramatic manner, Xu Cang Yuan twitched his eyebrow and said, “Big Senior Brother, I’ll leave this place in your hands for now, I need to step out for a bit.”

Ye Qiubai immediately understood; he’d been watching Mu Fusheng’s keen attention towards the matters involving the Seven Treasures Saint Sect and the Nine Dragon Divine Dynasty these past days.

“Alright, leave it to me.”

Mu Fusheng and Jiu Bailu nodded to each other, then quickly left the place.

According to the intelligence.

Seven Treasures Saint Sect did not directly strike against the Nine Dragon Divine Dynasty again, but instead secretly bought off four first-rate factions on the Cangxuan Continent.

It’s true that the Nine Dragon Divine Dynasty is a first-rate power on the Tianji Continent.

However, when compared to the first-rate factions of the Cangxuan Continent, they are not on the same level… If the Nine Dragon Divine Dynasty were on the Cangxuan Continent, they would at best barely qualify as a second-rate faction of the lowest tier.

These four factions are Jianghai Sect, Xuantian Valley, Jianyulei Sect, and Star Palace.

These four powers are also well-known entities on the Cangxuan Continent.

Upon hearing the name of Star Palace, Mu Fusheng also slightly furrowed his brow.

Isn’t that where Brother Shi Sheng is heading this time?

It seems that Brother Shi Sheng has some history with the Hall Master of Star Palace, right?

At the time, he even tried to reach out to Shi Sheng through telepathic message, but received no response.

In regards to this, Mu Fusheng only assumed that the other party might not have received it due to being in closed-door cultivation.

If it were a matter of danger, master would not sit idly by.

As for betrayal?

Mu Fusheng had never considered this possibility.

Fortunately, subsequent intelligence gathered through the Dark Domain’s network revealed that Star Palace made a move because the First Elder had been bought off by the Seven Treasures Saint Sect.

The Seven Treasures Saint Sect is very smart.

They didn’t have these four powers launch a direct attack against the Nine Dragon Divine Dynasty.

Instead, they tangled with the territory of the Nine Dragon Divine Dynasty under the pretense of competing for secret realms of opportunity and battling for resource-rich lands.

In just three short days, a large number of resource rich lands belonging to the Nine Dragon Divine Dynasty were divided up by these four major powers.

Causing the resource output of the Nine Dragon Divine Dynasty to sharply reduce by fifty percent!

The fortune of a nation.

Not only does it need the support of top-notch strong ones.

It also needs a massive amount of resources to accumulate.

It can be said that with less resource production, the worshippers within the Nine Dragon Divine Dynasty will leave, and it will be impossible to cultivate even more strong ones.

What’s more critical is… the plundering of territory is an extreme injury to the lifeblood of a nation.

The lifeblood of a nation is like the spine of a dragon.

Having territory plundered represents the bones of the spine being extracted one by one.

Once the bones are extracted, the massive body can no longer be supported and will inevitably collapse thunderously!

“What shall we do now?” Jiu Bailu asked.

Mu Fusheng smiled: “Now that we’ve grasped their moves through the intelligence, our goals have become very clear.”

Jiu Bailu: “Go directly and repel those strong ones plundering the lands?”

Mu Fusheng nodded: “That’s the plan, but searching for them one by one would be too inefficient.”

Having said that, Mu Fusheng pointed to a city on the map.

Azure Dragon City.

This place is a vital area producing Primordial Stones!

It is also the direct jurisdiction of the Crown Prince of the Nine Dragon Divine Dynasty, Crown Prince Jiu Xuan.

Similarly, this location is at the center of the current plundering by the four major powers!

“Taking this as a base, we will stop the strong ones plundering the surrounding lands. Once the situation escalates, we will be able to draw them in, at that time…”

Mu Fusheng did not finish his sentence.

Jiu Bailu already understood Mu Fusheng’s plan.

Catching turtles in a jar!

==============

PS: Damn it… it poured at two in the morning, and when lightning struck, I heard the sound of sparks outside, followed by a power outage (don’t doubt it, I’ve posted the video and photos in the book fan group, those who’ve joined the group should be able to see it).

The electrician who came to inspect found that the community’s transformer was damaged by the strike. If it was just a simple circuit, it would only take half an hour to fix, but this device would take several hours to repair…

Luckily my laptop still had some power left, and after writing until now, finishing the fourth chapter, I’ve only got 7% battery left, so that’ll have to do for now. Once the power comes back on after I’ve fixed things during the day, I’ll continue to write; if it’s not fixed when I wake up, I’ll go to a hotel and get a room to write. (The air conditioning isn’t working either… one truly can’t live without AC with the current temperatures in the south!!!)
