Chapter 569: Struggling to Gain Strength (1/2)

Lan could see that Xue Wei had some special encounter, but whether it could be considered a fortunate one with great results, he was still not sure.

His cultivation base and his mental state did not seem to have changed since they split up earlier, but still, there were less worries in his eyes, alongside some clarity.

Both Lan and Xue Wei had, naturally, guessed that this forgotten city was built by the Black Turtle Clan, but while Xue Wei had heard the majority of its history, Lan still had to guess everything from the clues he had found.

Xue Wei was smiling as he looked around the forgotten city. ”Do you think there is anything left of interest in this city?”

Lan glanced at the city, but he shook his head. Although they had not entered the main building yet, he could guess that the important treasures left behind had already been picked up by himself and Xue Wei.

He did not know exactly what Xue Wei had picked up, but he had felt the change in the atmosphere earlier, and knew that it was Xue Wei who had gotten something good once again.

Even so, he was not jealous. The power of faith that he had absorbed was also a very good harvest for him, and he felt content as he could sense the increase in faith, and knew that although the luck would not become much better, it might still be able to help him in dangerous situations.

”Let's go. We still have to look for that friend of yours.”

Lan was not willing to spend too much time within the forgotten city. He knew, as well as Xue Wei, that it had been abandoned a long time ago, and that they would not achieve their goal if they lingered.

Although they might come across certain treasures, they did not lack anything currently, and thus they prioritized something else.

”I encountered an old soul from the Black Turtle Clan.”

While they made their way out of the city, Xue Wei explained what he had encountered in the black pagoda.

”I am not able to get through the thick skin of that old turtle for now, but I don't think we should be in a hurry to activate my Black Turtle Bloodline. This is not a very suitable place to do so.”

After explaining everything, Xue Wei also made it clear that he had no intentions of activating his bloodline with the current situation.

While he was eager to see how much his strength would soar after such a bloodline activated, he understood that the conditions were not suitable.
