NOVEL NEXT Chapter 1326: Asking for the Moon!
Zhou Yu's biggest concern before was that the Hall Master would forcibly keep Lin Luoluo.
Now that this worry has been dispelled, Zhou Yu naturally doesn't have to worry about anything anymore.
He immediately said bluntly:
"I want two Ninth-tier Pill Medicines."
As soon as this was said, the smile on the Hall Master's face froze, and then it became even brighter.
But at the same time, Zhou Yu felt a huge pressure descending on him.
Even though Zhou Yu felt his scalp tingling, he still braced himself and looked at the Hall Master.
After a moment, the Hall Master said:
"I really underestimated you."
"Didn't expect you'd dare to ask so boldly."
"Do you think Ninth-tier Pill Medicines are candies lying around everywhere?"
Zhou Yu deliberately put on a pitiful face and said:
"You consider me as bait, let the Second Elder go all out, and you want me to bring out his so-called 'Fallen.' I'm putting my life on the line to cooperate with you."
"I think my life should at least be worth two Ninth-tier Pill Medicines, shouldn't it?"
The Hall Master refused decisively.
"Impossible!"
"Actually, some rewards have already been given to you in advance, so don't push it."
"Given to me in advance?"
Zhou Yu was taken aback.
"What?"
The Hall Master glared at him and said:
"Do you think anyone can enter the Wutong Enlightenment Platform?"
"You ask around, see who among the previous exchange conference winners ever got the qualification to enter the Wutong Enlightenment Platform?"
"You yourself know how many benefits you've gained from the Wutong Enlightenment Platform, don't you?"
The Hall Master's words left Zhou Yu somewhat speechless.
Indeed, he gained a lot of benefits at the Wutong Enlightenment Platform.
Moreover, according to Liu Tu and others, it seems there was no precedent for outsiders being able to enter the Wutong Enlightenment Platform before.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yu stepped back.
"Then forget it, I want one Ninth-tier Pill Medicine, but it must be significantly blood and energy enhancing type."
The Hall Master raised an eyebrow and was about to speak, but Zhou Yu quickly added.
"This is the minimum requirement, after all, you are the mighty Hall Master of the Pill God Temple, high and mighty. Besides, I'm risking my life for you, you can't be so stingy, right?"
The Hall Master looked amusedly at Zhou Yu.
"You little guy, quite know how to use the slope to get off the donkey."
"You think you're risking your life for the Hall? The Hall can completely put dealing with the Second Elder aside for now, there's no need for you to risk your life for the Hall right now. You can leave yourself."
"As long as you think you can leave safely."
Zhou Yu smiled slightly.
"Though I don't know exactly what the 'Fallen' is, yet if my guess is right, the longer that thing drags on, the more troublesome it becomes. If the Hall Master misses me, finding another suitable partner is unknown when that'll be."
"I wonder if the Hall Master can still afford to wait?"
Hearing Zhou Yu's words, the Hall Master squinted slightly, a glimmer appeared in her eyes.
Zhou Yu forced himself to remain calm and met the Hall Master's gaze.
After a moment, the Hall Master suddenly smiled.
"I must say, what you said makes a bit of sense."
After pausing slightly, the Hall Master said.
"Alright, your request, the Hall agrees."
Hearing the Hall Master's agreement, Zhou Yu was overjoyed.
Actually, he wasn't sure he could convince the Hall Master; it was entirely his conjecture and reasoning.
But now it seems his guess was correct.
The Hall Master indeed can't wait much longer.
Seeing Zhou Yu's excited look.
The Hall Master said irritably:
"Kid, don't get too cocky. The Hall is agreeing because I find you quite agreeable, and besides, your wife will be my disciple in the future, that's why I agreed."
"You didn't honestly think that without you, the Hall couldn't handle Rong Fang, did you?"
Zhou Yu quickly flattered.
"Of course not."
"The Hall Master is wise and powerful, with means as high as the heavens. Dealing with a Rong Fang is naturally a piece of cake, but the Hall Master, being the Hall Master, can't be personally dealing with everything, that would be too degrading, wouldn't it?"
This round of flattery made Lin Luoluo next to him break out in goosebumps.
Lin Luoluo glanced sideways at Zhou Yu but couldn't help but show an amused expression.
Immediately after, Zhou Yu asked:
"Hall Master, should I be leaving the Pill God Temple now?"
The Hall Master nodded.
"That's right."
"Once you leave, the Hall will issue an announcement stating you've been disrespectful to the Hall, and that you have been stripped of the Honored Elder title, expelled from the Pill God Temple, and forbidden to ever enter again."
"Upon hearing this news, the Second Elder shouldn't have any reservations, I'll have Venerable Hong and the others follow you secretly. As soon as the Second Elder makes a move, Venerable Hong will act."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu immediately understood.
"What a clever 'lure the snake out of its hole'!"
The Hall Master glanced at him and then waved her hand.
A stream of light shot towards Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu reached out to catch it and found it was a Jade Bottle.
"Inside here is the Ninth-tier Pill Medicine you wanted."
"Alright, you can go now."
Seeing the Hall Master's straightforwardness, Zhou Yu was also very excited.
He bowed and said:
"Hall Master, then we'll take our leave."
After speaking, Zhou Yu, taking Lin Luoluo with him, left the main hall.
Standing on the top floor platform of the main hall, the Hall Master watched Zhou Yu's departing figure, suddenly showing a strange smile.
"Indeed, the disciple of that old thing, haha... really searched high and low..."
