C12 (1/2)
The Second Elder pondered for a moment before asking doubtfully, ”What does that man look like?”
Lu You rolled his eyes and said. He was still young, and his clothes were tattered and tattered as if he had just experienced some kind of battle! He was also holding a sword in his hand, but that sword seemed to be broken. I didn't know what it was for, but it had nothing to do with me, so I didn't ask too much. Lu You's reply that seemed to be both casual and suspenseful made the Second Elder excited.
Hearing that, the Second Elder thought: Isn't the broken sword the Slaughtering The Heavens? As expected, the Slaughtering The Heavens was taken away by the remnant Devil Clan!
He then asked urgently, ”Which direction did the remaining evildoers run in?” How long have you been running?
Lu You no longer spoke, he raised his head and apathetically pointed to the depths of the forest, then stood up and prepared to leave.
Lu You breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, thinking: At least I wasn't discovered! I can slip away!
At this moment, the Second Elder suddenly became alert. What if this fellow is lying to us?
Then, he brought his disciple back, and said to Lu You: ”Little brother, you have been chopping wood here all year round, you know the path here better. Moreover, this remnant of Devil Clan, he had hidden his presence well, if you don't lead the way for us and find him, our Li Yang Sect will reward you handsomely!
Hearing this, Lu You thought: This is bad! This Second Elder is truly treacherous. If I were to bring him down, he would definitely be exposed!
Just as he was hesitating, Elder Tian Gui's voice sounded beside Lu You's ears: Follow my instructions and I will help you plan your future matters!
Lu You quietly agreed in his heart, then raised his head and started to bargain with the Second Elder, speaking out loud: ”Second Elder, looking at your anxious expression, I'm afraid that this remnant of Devil Clan is very important to you!”
Lu You raised his head and pretended to be calm as he said to the Second Elder: Then, if I bring you to find him, what rewards would you give me?
The Second Elder hesitated for a moment, then said: ”Since you want to make a living by chopping wood, then if you bring me to find this remnant of your Devil Clan, how about I give you a few Soul Controlling Realm Devil Beast cores? You can sell them, it'll be enough to support you for a long time!”
Lu You pretended to be happy and replied immediately. I'll take you there, follow me!
The second elder's suspicion was dispelled by half as he thought to himself: ”Those who chop firewood are the same as those who chop firewood. They are useless trash!” Just a few crystal cores and you can be so happy! Without a word, he brought his disciple and followed Lu You into the forest.
Under Elder Tian Gui's instructions, they turned left and right, and quickly entered the depths of the forest.
Suddenly, Elder Tian Gui spoke to Lu You: There is a cave in front, and from what I can sense, it is a Nirvana Realm Divine Beast. With Second Elder's current strength, even if he fights with us, it will be difficult to deal with him, so I will first break away from your body, quietly enter the cave, and release the Devilish Qi in the cave.
Finished speaking, Lu You said in his heart that everything must be done with caution! He then raised his head and pointed at the cave in the distance.
To the Second Elder: Second Elder! As far as I know, the person from Devil Clan has already entered the cave. You go and take a look, I have to retreat!
The Second Elder said, ”That won't do. What if you lie to us? In the depths of the Hundred Thousand Mountain Range Forest, there is everything. What if you trick me?”
Lu You acted as though he was helpless, and said to the Second Elder: I, you see, am so weak, and want to run over with you, isn't that courting death? I'll show you the way to here. You're putting your life on the line, and I won't take any heavy rewards.
