Chapter 580 Three-headed Spirit Ghost Python (2/2)
The silence lasted for a few more moments, before Zhou Yuan slowly said, “The Three-headed Spirit Ghost Snake’s battle power will rise drastically once it fuses, rendering even a Chosen powerless against it. To deal with it, we’ll have to first split its bodies.”
Fan Yao laughed mockingly, before he said, “The ghost snake shadows are always with the Spirit Ghost Snake. I’ve never heard of them separating before.”
Zhao Ru icily snorted, evidently feeling that Zhou Yuan was spouting nonsense.
Zhou Yuan’s expression remained calm, ignoring their responses as he continued to stare at the six color lake. “Just because you guys are ill-informed, don’t a.s.sume that everyone else is the same.”
Fan Yao and Zhao Ru’s expressions darkened at Zhou Yuan’s retort.
In contrast, Tang Xiaoyan’s eyes brightened a little as she stared at Zhou Yuan and said, “Does this mean that chief disciple Zhou Yuan has a solution?”
Zhao Ru was taken aback, her eyes filled with skepticism.
Zhou Yuan was silent for a moment, before he said, “I know of a disorientating boundary that we may try.”
He was naturally referring to the Heaven Disorientating Boundary Yaoyao had taught him that had trapped nearly all of the Sword Cometh Peak disciples. Although he was not as proficient as Yaoyao, he should be able to manage trapping the Three-headed Spirit Ghost Python for some time.
Moreover, the Heaven Disorientating Boundary was able to interfere with the senses of anyone or thing that was trapped within it. As such, even with the unique link between the Three-headed Spirit Ghost Python and its shadows, the separated bodies would be incapable of swiftly finding each other.
Tang Xiaoyan was overjoyed when she heard this.
Fan Yao and Zhao Ru, on the other hand, were rather skeptical. However, since no one else had any ideas at this moment, they could only say, “Since you have plan, we’ll let you try it out.”
Zhou Yuan cast a sideways glance at them, as he nonchalantly said, “I could, but I feel that there’s a need to first decide on the allocation of the six color lake.”
Fan Yao icily stared at Zhou Yuan. “What do you have in mind?”
“The Cangxuan Sect will take forty percent, while you two will take thirty.” Said Zhou Yuan.
Fan Yao was the first to react with a sneer, “Humph, the likes of you thinks that you deserve forty percent?”
In his view, the Sacred Palace was the strongest of the trio, and it was only logical that they received the lion’s share. It was already very generous of him to give the Cangxuan Sect twenty percent, and yet Zhou Yuan actually dared to ask for forty percent now? A portion which was even higher than the Sacred Palace’s share?!
Tang Xiaoyan did not say anything. Thirty percent was within an acceptable range to her. On the other hand, Zhao Ru seemed to have something to say, but was quickly stopped by the former.
“If we can’t come to an agreement, I’ll take my leave now.” Zhou Yuan smiled faintly.
Fan Yao’s eyes turned chillingly cold. If it was before encountering the Three-headed Spirit Ghost Python, he would naturally be more than happy for Zhou Yuan to leave. However, given how troublesome a problem this Three-headed Spirit Ghost Python was, they was really nothing they could do without Zhou Yuan’s method to split up the Three-headed Spirit Ghost Python.
Fan Yao chillingly said, “Kid, you dare to bargain with me?”
Zhou Yuan’s expression did not ripple as he replied, “I’ll give you one minute to consider.”
Fan Yao stared daggers at Zhou Yuan. A long while later, he suddenly laughed and said, “Alright, it’s only forty percent, I agree…”
Zhou Yuan chuckled upon seeing this, before he turned towards Jin Zhang and said, “Let’s go and set-up the boundary.”
Jin Zhang nodded, and the duo proceeded to very cautiously descend towards the edge of the lake under the numerous watching gazes.
Fan Yao remained behind, coldly staring at Zhou Yuan’s figure as his eyes seemed to flicker in thought.
“Are you really giving him forty percent?” Asked w.a.n.g Yuan in a low voice, evidently somewhat unable to accept it.
Fan Yao’s eyelids lowered slightly as he indifferently said, “That will depend on whether he’ll be alive to enjoy it. We’ll bear with him for the moment, and squeeze out every ounce of usefulness he has.”
In the distance, Jin Zhang also asked in a low voice, “Zhou Yuan, the deal you made is quite disadvantageous to us. Do you really believe that Fan Yao will make good on his promise?”
In his view, a verbal promise was pretty much a joke.
Zhou Yuan retrieved the Heavenly Yuan Brush as he displayed a dazzling smile towards Jin Zhang and said, “Chief disciple Jin Zhang, there must always be a justification for something. If Fan Yao does hold up on his end of the deal, how could I bring myself to have designs on his share?”
“What do you mean?” Jin Zhang was taken aback.
Genesis Runes began to take shape under Zhou Yuan’s brush as he cast a glance towards a certain spot from the corner of his eye and sighed, “To be honest… I’m not satisfied with forty percent, but since I’ve an old friend on the Hundred Flowers Fairy Palace side, it would be rather rude of me to target their share…”
Jin Zhang’s eyes widened as he gasped in realization.
Zhou Yuan had been eyeing the Sacred Palace’s share from the very beginning...
Such boldness and ambition was really something else!
