281 He Mengxi’s Goal, The Sky Sun Fruit! (2/2)
”Good gracious! Mo Yitian was a late Dharma adept. What's more, he had grasped Dharma-body Integration. With the use of ultimate spirit weapons, killing ultimate Dharma beasts was no feat for him… But he actually died inside?”
”Could he have been ambushed and killed by a few ultimate Dharma beasts?”
”Even Mo Yitian died inside. Shouldn't I be kneeling down and kowtowing to thank Heaven for being merciful and letting me come out alive?”
…
”Junior Brother Donghuang is back!”
After catching sight of Yu Yucheng in the distance, Zhou Donghuang approached him. At the moment, most of the Lightning Sword Sect disciples had already returned. When the Lightning Sword Sect saw him, their eyes lit up collectively.
As expected, Zhou Donghuang's return attracted the attention of everyone in the Lightning Sword Sect.
Just as Zhou Donghuang had guessed, all of them had left in advance, including He Mengxi and Da Zhuang.
”Sect Leader.”
After joining the Lightning Sword Sect disciples, Zhou Donghuang first greeted Yu Yucheng.
Yu Yucheng looked at him with a smile. ”Zhou Donghuang, your results this time were probably quite good, right?”
”You can say it's not bad.”
Zhou Donghuang nodded. His expression was calm and completely neutral.
Seeing Zhou Donghuang's expression, Yu Yucheng's heart jolted. He silently guessed, ”Could it be… that Zhou Donghuang had bad luck inside and encountered few ultimate Dharma beasts?”
Admittedly, one's ability was important in the Alliance Hunt. But luck was also crucial.
After passing by Yu Yucheng, Zhou Donghuang then greeted the Autumn Valley Head, He Jin. After that, he nodded his head at the other three Valley Heads who were looking at him before going off to find He Mengxi and Da Zhuang.
”Little Junior Brother, why did you come out so late? Was your luck that bad?” He Mengxi subconsciously thought this.
She felt that if he had good luck, one more day or one less day would not make much of a difference to the span of three months.
Given the ability of her little junior brother, if not for his bad luck, there was no way he would have waited until now to leave.
After hearing Zhou Donghuang say ”not bad,” even the head of the Lightning Sword Sect, Yu Yucheng, had guessed that Zhou Donghuang's luck had been bad and that he had killed very few ultimate Dharma State beasts. A large part of the reason why was because Zhou Donghuang had left so late.
Hearing He Mengxi's words, Zhou Donghuang smiled bitterly. ”It was all because I wanted to wait and see if I could meet you and Da Zhuang on the very last day. But I didn't expect you guys to leave first.”
”To see if you could meet us?”
He Mengxi was confused.
”I also killed many mid Dharma beasts by accident. I kept their heads and wanted to give them to you… but I didn't expect you guys to leave before me,” Zhou Donghuang said.
Unexpectedly, after hearing Zhou Donghuang's words, He Mengxi said with nonchalance written all over her face, ”Aren't they just mid Dharma beast heads? That's nothing. One head can only accumulate ten points anyway. Only ten heads can match up to one late Dharma beast head.”
”Judging from Third Senior Sister's words, your results were quite good this time.”
Zhou Donghuang smiled and asked, ”Third Senior Sister, how many beasts did you guys kill this time?”
”Allow us to keep that a secret from you.”
He Mengxi chuckled and continued, ”Da Zhuang and I have agreed to concentrate all our spoils on me alone. It probably won't be an issue for me to attain first place… When that happens, we'll definitely be able to get the Sky Sun Fruit that you want.”
He Mengxi's words caused Zhou Donghuang's heart to tremble. He could not help but feel a bit touched.
”You guys didn't have to do that.”
Zhou Donghuang smiled bitterly and shook his head. ”Frankly, my results were not bad, either.”
He knew that Da Zhuang definitely would not get any points this time. Now that he had given all his spoils to He Mengxi and they had handed over their space rings, it was definitely impossible for them to re-allocate their spoils even if they wanted to.
”Da Zhuang and I often went our separate ways to search for beasts and hunt them down. We had fairly good luck too.”
He Mengxi smiled and said, ”Your results alone definitely can't compare to us two. After gathering our spoils together, unless someone has particularly good luck… There would be no doubt at all.”
At the Alliance Hunt, everyone wanted to rank as high as possible on the scoreboard.
So, apart from the small number of ultimate Dharma adepts, the remaining people could not possibly give someone else all their spoils even if they hunted beasts together on the Guiyao planet.
Situations like that of He Mengxi and Da Zhuang were extremely rare.
It had to be borne in mind that one's final ranking in the Alliance Hunt was extremely important to everyone. Even if they did not obtain any rewards at the time, they could still have priority to buy some precious core drugs at the Alliance Headquarters later if their results were not too bad. Those core drugs were also limited per beast head collected.
No matter how many points a person accumulated in the Alliance Hunt, he could buy only a bottle or a pill of some precious core drugs at the Alliance Headquarters.
It was precisely because of this that even among ultimate Dharma adepts, few people would give away all their spoils.
