Chapter 946 Liu Qingshu, Zhao Yunxiao (2/2)

“Liu Qingshu and Zhao Yunxiao…” Zhou Yuan mumbled to himself. The second name caused a strange look to emerge on his face.

It was a name he deeply remembered. During his encounter with Wu Yao in the Great Wu Empire’s capital, Zhao Yunxiao had launched a sneak attack on him. In fact, it could be said that there was a grudge between them.

As for Liu Qingshu, he had likewise heard of her. She was quite famous and had a pretty high rank on the Divine Dwelling List.

“It seems that we are quite fated to meet the Wanzu Region.” Zhou Yuan chuckled. Among the three mini domains they had entered, they encountered teams from the Wanzu Region in two of them.

Shang Xiaoling said, “When our scouts encountered them, they also discovered our presence.”

She hesitated for a moment before she continued, “Liu Qingshu and Zhao Yunxiao have requested you to meet with them and discuss how the Spiritium in this mini domain will be split.”

Zhou Yuan responded, “Since they’re inviting me over, let’s go and see what they have to say.”

Yi Qiushui worriedly said, “Will it be a trap?”

“You guys be on guard and carefully watch the surroundings when we’re there. I’ll go meet them and see what they’re up to.” Zhou Yuan chuckled before he continued, “Liu Qingshu and Zhao Yunxiao may not be weak, but it will be naive of them to believe they will be able to stop me from leaving.”

In the Fallen Abyss, if one were to disregard each team’s overall strength, only the top few rankers would be able to make Zhou Yuan wary. At the very least, the likes of Liu Qingshu and Zhao Yunxiao were not enough to concern him.

With his decision made, Zhou Yuan waved his hand and led the way by rising into the air.

Behind him, several hundred people closely followed.

An hour later, Zhou Yuan looked towards the front. Amidst the strong winds, two figures were visible atop a hill. Zhou Yuan’s gaze shifted down to the foot of the hill, where two several-hundred-member-strong teams were waiting.

Zhou Yuan made a gesture towards Yi Qiushui and the others. His figure soon sped up and slowly descended towards the hill after several dozen breaths.

When he landed, the two figures on the hill cast their gazes towards him.

Zhou Yuan also looked over. Liu Qingshu was a pretty young lady and had a pure face. However, a faint seductive allure seemed to spread from between her brows. When she looked at Zhou Yuan, her eyes contained undisguised proudness.

Zhou Yuan turned towards Zhao Yunxiao. The latter smiled back with a toyful gaze.

Smiling, Zhao Yunxiao said, “Tsktsk, Zhou Yuan, I never expected you to become the chief pavilion master of the Tianyuan Region in the few years since we met. How surprising.

“However, you truly know how to pick a place.” His words seemed to be full of praise, but his tone was sarcastic. The meaning was clear: if Zhou Yuan were in any of the other eight regions, he would not have such status.

Zhou Yuan glanced at him and nonchalantly replied, “A mere rat that likes to sneak up behind people...back then, I had recently advanced to the Divine Dwelling stage, and yet your sneak attack could do nothing to me. It seems to me that you haven’t improved much since then.”

Zhao Yunxiao’s eyes turned cold. “What big words!”

By the side, Liu Qingshu immediately waved her hand upon seeing the fiery atmosphere between them and said, “The two of you can resolve your differences another day. Our current goal is to decide on how to allocate the Spiritium in this mini domain.”

Zhou Yuan turned towards Liu Qingshu. How could he not see the proud attitude she displayed? However, he ignored it and asked, “How shall we do this, then?”

Liu Qingshu smiled faintly and answered, “Since we arrived earlier, we’ve already scouted the entire place and found a total of nine locations with Spiritium.

“After some discussion, we’ve decided that my Wanzu Region shall get four locations, the Wushen Region three, and your Tianyuan Region may harvest the remaining two.”

Her tone was nonchalant. It seemed to be a discussion, but her words indicated that they had already decided on the outcome.

Zhao Yunxiao nodded, still grinning from ear to ear as he stared at Zhou Yuan.

Liu Qingshu looked at Zhou Yuan and displayed a sweet smile. “Chief pavilion master Zhou Yuan, your Tianyuan Region may suffer slightly with this allocation, but you should know the saying first come, first served. Won’t it be better for everyone to share the spoils peacefully without any bloodshed?”

Although her smile was sweet, her words clearly contained a small threat.

Zhou Yuan smiled and nodded. “I understand.”

A sliver of disdain flitted across Liu Qingshu’s eyes.

However, the smile on Zhou Yuan’s face soon receded as he indifferently said, “But unfortunately, I’m a barbarian who loves bloodshed. Hence, I’ll be taking all nine of the Spiritium locations.
