Chapter 953 Cooperation (1/2)

A bonfire was blazing in the mountains. A fat cow was skinned and cleaned, then skewered with a wooden stick. Yuan Kun held the stick with one hand and skillfully rotated it over the fire.

He sprinkled some spices over it, and an aroma instantly filled the air.

The ox was roasted until it was a golden color. Its fat dripped off and hit the campfire, creating bursts of intense flames. Its aroma was mouth-watering.

Yuan Kun looked very skillful, like a real chef.

Half an hour later, Yuan Kun gave a satisfied nod and tore off one of the steaming beef shanks and handed it to Zhou Yuan.

“Hey, try it. My cooking skills are unique in the Yushou Region.” Yuan Kun clearly sounded proud. It even seemed that he was more proud of his cooking skills than being ranked one in the Yushou Region.

The corners of Zhou Yuan’s mouth twitched, and then he reached his hand out to take it. He watched Yuan Kun split the remaining fatty beef into two, one for himself to feast on, and he tossed the other to the Divine Earth Ox lying to the side.

The Divine Earth Ox seemed to really enjoy it, and it finished the meat even quicker than Yuan Kun, leaving grease all over its lips.

Zhou Yuan speechlessly shook his head when he saw this bizarre scene, then lowered his head to slowly enjoy the fatty beef shank in his hand. Besides, the flavor was really delicious. It was no wonder Yuan Kun was so proud of it.

When Zhou Yuan finished the beef shank, Yuan Kun patted his stomach, looking very satisfied.

“Brother Yuan Kun, let's talk about Alpha Spiritium.” Once the roast beef feast was finished, Zhou Yuan returned to serious business.

Yuan Kun lifted up a stick to pick his teeth and grinned at Zhou Yuan. “Brother Zhou Yuan must have noticed the strange fluctuation of energy when you entered this s.p.a.ce, right?”

“There is indeed Alpha Spiritium in this s.p.a.ce.”

“You came a few days late. We’ve actually discovered the existence of Alpha Spiritium earlier.”

Zhou Yuan asked puzzledly, “Then you obtained the Alpha Spiritium?”

Yuan Kun smiled stiffly. “If I’ve got it, how would I ask you to cooperate with me.”

“Did someone else get it before you?” Zhou Yuan’s eyes flashed.

“In this s.p.a.ce, in addition to our two teams, there is also a team from the Zixiao Region and the team led by Jiu Gong. However, the team from the Zixiao Region is not the main force,” Xuan Kun said helplessly.

“Jiu Gong of the Xuanji Region?” Zhou Yuan sounded a little surprised. He didn’t expect there to be another main force team besides them.

Although he was unfamiliar with Jiu Gong of the Xuanji Region, he had long heard of her name. After all, she was the reviewer of the Divine Dwelling List, and she was also the reason why he couldn’t make it into the top ten initially.

“You didn't fight with her?” Zhou Yuan laughed.

A faint flush spread across Yuan Kun’s chubby and pale face, and immediately he grumbled, “That little woman is very domineering. She first occupied the area containing the Alpha Spiritium and then set up a Meridian Golden Light Boundary. I led a team of people to try to break through but gave up after half a day and tried to search for other Alpha Spiritiums. But unfortunately, we failed to find any.”

Zhou Yuan whispered, “Is Brother Yuan Kun saying that we should cooperate to break through Jiu Gong’s Meridian Golden Light Boundary and seize the Alpha Spiritium?”

Yuan Kun nodded. “Otherwise, given that little woman’s domineering personality, it would be difficult to get our hands on the Alpha Spiritium in this mini domain.”

He looked at Zhou Yuan and said, “What? What is Brother Zhou Yuan thinking? I won’t blame you if you don’t want to offend Jiu Gong. That little woman is so arrogant, but because of the Xuanji Region’s special status, n.o.body in Hunyuan Heaven will dare to mess with them.”

Zhou Yuan could tell that Yuan Kun was trying to spur him to cooperate with him from his tone of voice. He smiled. “Brother Yuan Kun, you don’t need to do this. We all came to the nine regions tournament for Alpha Spiritium. Jiu Gong may be well known, but to me, she can’t be compared to Alpha Spiritium.

“If she wants to stop me from getting Alpha Spiritium, she’s my enemy.”

Yuan Kun’s eyes lit up. “Your words are music to my ear. Then, when our teams finish collecting Spiritium in this mini domain, will we take action?”

Zhou Yuan naturally had no objection and nodded with a smile.

He was indeed a little curious about the girl who was second only to Wu Yao and Su Youwei among the Divine Dwelling stage experts within Hunyuan heaven. But if she wanted to take all the Alpha Spiritium, she would have to ask whether or not his Tianyuan brush agrees or not.

In front of Alpha Spiritium...what was a beauty?

Zhou Yuan and Yuan Kun both issued an order, and the two teams collecting strands of Spiritium hastened. After half a day, they finished collecting all the Spiritium in the mountains.

Then, Yuan Kun led the way with his team, and Zhou Yuan closely followed with the Tianyuan Region’s team.

The two groups of people skimmed across the sky in a mighty manner, heading directly southwest.
