717 The Heavens Have Eyes (1/2)

Nangong Mingzhu pushed Mo Wen aside with one hand. A black light shone from her body. It was like a set of clothing which covered her entire figure.

”Thank you very much,” Mo Wen said, not minding her interference. The fact that they had been able to kill the Giant Crocodile Beast King so decisively was largely due to Nangong Mingzhu's contribution. He had not expected that she would be willing to pay so high a price in order to cooperate with him. Reality proved that Nangong Mingzhu was indeed a suitable partner to work with. At least she was more reliable than Chu Yuan.

”We are all in the same boat. I just hope that we all did our best,” Nangong Mingzhu said plainly. She was fighting so hard not to help Mo Wen but to able to walk out of this Fighting Spirit Tower alive.

Aside from Mo Wen and a few others who had firepower, the other human martial art practitioners could almost be ignored.

Mo Wen nodded his head. In such situations, one could tell whether someone understood the interest of the general public.

Once the Giant Crocodile Beast King died, an uncountable amount of starlight immediately surged out from thin air. It became a huge swirl of starlight, enveloping Mo Wen and Nangong Mingzhu within it.

This time, the starlight surged into both Mo Wen and Nangong Mingzhu.

A look of astonishment flashed in Nangong Mingzhu's eyes. She had originally thought that the starlight would only surge into Mo Wen as he had killed the Giant Crocodile Beast King. She never thought that the huge mass of starlight would actually split in two and surge into both of them. It was unprecedented.

Mo Wen also had a curious look in his eyes. This was the first time something like this had happened. Could it be that the Tower Spirit had determined that this Giant Crocodile Beast King was killed by the two of them joining forces and was not the work of just one person?

”The heavens have eyes,” Mo Wen said with a soft sigh as he looked at the sky. Nothing in the Fighting Spirit Tower could be kept from the Tower Spirit.

Nangong Mingzhu pursed her lips. She suddenly felt that this game of death was a little bit more interesting. The mysterious Tower Spirit did not seem to be using them for its own entertainment, but instead placed great importance in this game of death and was always concerned about the dynamics within it. But why?

The Fighting Spirit Tower's Tower Spirit was a mysterious being that had existed for tens of millennia. Why would it be so interested in them? This ancient existence would likely have grown tired of everything. By rights, it would not be bothered with such small things as themselves.

However, since they had entered the Fighting Spirit Tower, the Tower Spirit had arranged an elaborate game of death. Even if the Fighting Spirit Tower was a place to test people, the Tower Spirit did not need to go to such trouble.

Moreover, this Fighting Spirit Tower had been abandoned for tens of thousands of years. The people who had recently entered the Fighting Spirit Tower were not the clansmen that the Tower Spirit protected. Under normal circumstances, it would most likely leave them to their own devices. There was no reason for it to go to such lengths at all.

Nangong Mingzhu had her doubts, but it was impossible to know the why and wherefore of this matter at all. They could not simply ask the Tower Spirit. Who would dare to guess what was going through its mind?

The starlight from killing the Giant Crocodile Beast King was far more than that they had received following the death of the Fire Scorpion Beast King. It was almost twice as much. Its effect on raising his cultivation was equal to Mo Wen killing another Fire Scorpion Beast King. His cultivation kept climbing. When all of the starlight dissipated, he felt his ability once again increase by a large amount. If he were to be pitted against the Giant Crocodile Beast King once again, most likely it would be a little bit difficult, but he could kill it alone.

Mo Wen did not know what realm his current cultivation would place him in, but he was certain that in terms of pure Inner Qi cultivation, he had already far surpassed many third realm Martial Arts Grandmasters. The same was also true for Nangong Mingzhu. Her body kept emanating a terrifying aura.

A few beams of light appeared in mid-air. The lights sparkled like jewels and treasure. They were their rewards for killing the Giant Crocodile Beast King.

Mo Wen glanced at them. There were seven beams of light, two more than the drops of the Fire Scorpion Beast King.

”Ladies first.”

Mo Wen made a welcoming gesture. He did not forget his manners even at this moment. The Giant Crocodile Beast King had been killed by the two of them after they had joined forces. It would be impossible and unfair for him to monopolize the benefits. It was also true that Nangong Mingzhu had contributed more than him.

Nangong Mingzhu did not hold back. With a wave, four masses of light flew to her. She said, ”You have no objections with me taking four, right?”

Earlier on, when Mo Wen had obtained too many good items, even she had been envious. Now, she had no intention of holding back and letting Mo Wen take the larger portion.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.

”As it should be.”

Mo Wen nodded his head as he took the other three lights. Nangong Mingzhu was not pushing it. Among the seven treasures, there were three superb grade Healing Lights, two incomplete first rank spiritual talismans, a small flag, and a superb grade Recovery Light.

The most valuable among them were the three superb grade Healing Lights. A superb grade Healing Light was equivalent to having an extra life. The value of its use far exceeded that of the other items.

Nangong Mingzhu had claimed four lights but had not taken all three superb grade Healing Lights. She had left one behind, as well as an incomplete first rank spiritual talisman, and the small flag.

Needless to say, the small flag was one of the Four Guardians Heaven Sealing Stratagem's stratagem flags. This flag was azure, with an azure dragon carved onto it. It was the Azure Dragon Flag of the Four Guardians Stratagem Flags. Mo Wen had the White Tiger Flag and the Black Tortoise Flag. Nangong Mingzhu seemed to have intentionally left the Azure Dragon Flag for him, instead taking the almost useless superb grade Recovery Light away.
