Chapter 290: Dark Element (1/2)

4018 Low Grade Spirit Stones?

Lin Xiao was taken aback before he realized that his older brother was referring to the Spirit Stones that was obtained from the betting before.

”That's for me?” Lin Xiao was stunned.

Prince Lin Yan nodded. ”I'm only betting on your behalf but all the earning will go to your pocket. Naturally, you can use it to buy some life saving treasure or to buy other swords… It wouldn't take long before your old sword to be worn down.”

Lin Xiao recalled his sword and couldn't help but let out a self depreciating laugh. He had picked the sword by himself back then, thinking that it was quite good. But he also knew that it was only a sword at rank 2…

The other three in the group all have weapon at least rank 3!

He was really the poorest.

”In that case, I guess I really need to buy a sword for myself. Plus some life saving treasure.” Lin Xiao knew that having treasures would be crucial because it can help him during crucial time.

Prince Lin Yan nodded. ”Also, I forget to tell you. If you wish to use these Low Grade Spirit Stones to advance faster to Golden Core Stage, you better forget about it. Building your core required you to absorb the Qi that's suitable for your path.

These stones… normally use the most basic Qi and your body will only absorb a portion of it since you all have rare elements. It didn't matter that much when you're still at Body Training Stage but now that you're already at Foundation Establishment, you might need millions of these stones to be able to advance.”

Right…

It was only now Lin Xiao recalled that his element was actually lake. It was no wonder he felt that his speed decreased considerably when he was at Foundation Establishment even though he was inside that small lake.

The others nodded.

”I'll naturally bet on your name. Do you wish to earn a lot of money too, Xiao Hua?”

Princess Lan Yi Hua nodded. ”Yes. You can assign more battles for me too. However, I would like you to not reveal my identity.”

”Naturally.”

Prince Lin Yan would never want to put them in danger. The only reason why he revealed their identity to Hu Fei was because that person was his sworn brother.

As for how they met… that was an extremely long story.

Princess Lan Yi Hua looked at Prince Lin Yan. ”How did you manage to get acquaintance with Hu Fei?”

”Do you know him?”

”Mhm.” It took Princess Lan Yi Hua some time, but she finally remembered him. Marquis Hu was a powerful cultivator at Golden Core Stage 3 and was one of the pillars in Lan Hua Kingdom. However, he has an eccentric son who didn't want to go out at all.

It was often said that his son was either capable but stupid or weak and unsuitable to be seen.

Marquis Hu never bothered to explain the matter and thus, the rumors swirled in Hua Lan Kingdom. Princess Lan Yi Hua naturally had heard about that but she only thought about it after some time.
