Fatty was stunned for a moment. He subconsciously looked back at Shen Ying at the side, who was still nibbling at snacks. Many complicated, unidentifiable emotions flashed across his face. For an instant, it was as though something was going to rush out from his eyes, which still died down after a while. His mouth opened and closed several times. He slowly returned to himself.

“Fellow Daoist, you are mistaken!” He scratched his head and smiled. “I was only a bit curious about that place so I wanted to look at it from nearby. I don’t necessarily have to go in. About Divine Imperial Sect and me…” He thought about it, and suddenly took out a white pearl from underneath his belly. It was the one that he used to light up the caves back then. “I did take one of their treasures, which is this vein pearl.”

“Vein pearl!” Lonemoon was shocked. Holy shit, this man was rather bold.

“What?” Shen Ying turned to Chef.”

“A Dharma artifact which seals a whole spirit vein.” Yi Qing explained softly. “If this pearl is buried underground, it takes only a few years for a spirit vein to be grown.”

“Oh…”

So he took away their spirit vein? This way, it was normal that Divine Imperial Sect chased after him like this.

“It doesn’t just make a spirit vein.” Fatty continued. “This pearl has another use.” With that said, he started shaking that pearl hard. The pearl became brighter and brighter. In a short while, balls of white light was shaken off it, making clanging sounds as they dropped onto the ground.

Upon closer look, several clear, bright stones were on the ground.

Holy shit!

“Spirit stones!”

(⊙ o ⊙)

This was not only a spirit vein, but actually a mine of spirit stones!

Hui Ze kept the spirit stones on the ground and handed them over together with the pearl in his hand. “If you send me to the South, I will give this vein pearl to you as payment. How about that?”

Lonemoon, “…” he suddenly felt as if he was stabbed due to someone having a complete lack of greed towards money.

In the next instant, two pairs of familiar eyes turned together and fixed on Father Niu.

“Why do you look at me?” Lonemoon stared back at them. “Am I such a money-lover?”

“Yeah!” Both replied together immediately.

“…” What the heck! Which side are you two on?

The corner of Lonemoon’s mouth twitched. He suppressed the urge to beat the two up. Did these two little bastards forget who gave them their living allowances? He breathed deeply, but didn’t take the vein pearl in Fatty’s hand. He made a soft “hmph”.

“That’s not necessary. I don’t need this thing.” He just liked to earn money, not print money. What did he want a money printer for? Besides, there are so many spirit veins in the world. With his ability, it was very easy to collect a few and make a vein pearl from them. How would he be greedy about this? Things like spirit stones are only fun when you take it from someone else’s hands. Only those that circulate are currencies. And there was this thing called inflation.

“But…” Fatty grew a bit anxious. He felt for his belly, as though thinking what else he had. “I don’t have anything else.”

Could he only…

“I said it’s not necessary. If you insist on going South, we won’t stop you.” His face darkened, guessing that those Divine Imperial Sect disciples were chasing after him not only for this vein pearl. Or he wouldn’t agree to escort him so easily. But since he didn’t want to tell, it was unnecessary to keep asking. He directly threw out the fan in his hand, turning it into a dharma artifact, then grabbed the man and flew up. “We’ve rested enough. Let’s go!”
