NOVEL NEXT Chapter 1345: The Second Dao Bead!
The Hall Master was clearly very resistant and extremely angry at what Zhou Yu said.
In response, Zhou Yu had no intention of conceding.
He looked at the Hall Master calmly and spoke:
"With your cultivation, even if I leave my Primordial Spirit Mark, you can naturally remove it effortlessly when your Primordial Spirit recovers. So why refuse?"
"I'm doing this merely to ensure you won't disclose my secret."
"If you're unable to agree to even this condition, I naturally cannot trust what you just said."
The Hall Master's expression changed slightly but quickly returned to normal.
"What secret?"
Zhou Yu sneered.
"What? Are you pretending to be confused with me?"
"If what you said is true, then you should know about the enmity between me and the person who wants to seize you, as well as the matter of the Heavenly Law Dao Bead."
"Do you think I would simply let you go?"
Upon hearing this, the Hall Master fell silent.
Indeed, over the years, she had been severely suppressed, but she knew all the secrets of the person attempting to seize her.
Including the old man, the Heavenly Law Dao Bead, Tai Chu Skill, cultivation, and so on...
To be honest, even she was quite tempted by these secrets.
Seeing the Hall Master remain silent for a long time, Zhou Yu's expression darkened and his eyes flashed coldly.
As the saying goes, the longer the delay, the more variables emerge.
At this critical moment, Zhou Yu did not want to give the Hall Master too much time, lest other unexpected changes occur.
So, he spoke directly and unceremoniously.
"I'll give you one minute to decide for yourself."
"It's best not to make any dangerous moves."
"Otherwise, I won't be polite."
After saying this, Zhou Yu did not hide his intentions. He directly locked onto the Hall Master with his Divine Sense, ready to act at any moment.
Although the person in front of him was severely injured, she was still a peak Emperor Realm martial artist, and Zhou Yu was on her turf, so he dared not be careless.
Of course, he had thought about directly killing the Hall Master.
But until absolutely necessary, he was unwilling to take this last step.
The reason was still the same.
After all, she was at the peak Emperor Realm.
Moreover, Zhou Yu himself held no enmity with the Hall Master; the person he wanted to kill was the old man's traitorous disciple.
Zhou Yu was very certain that person was already dead, truly, soul scattered.
Thus, if he could avoid killing, he would avoid it; this was also what the old man taught him.
Furthermore, the Tai Chu Gui Yuan was highly effective in slaying the old man's traitorous disciple, but whether it would work on others was uncertain.
He fundamentally did not need to take this risk.
Time was passing quickly.
Soon, the minute was almost up.
Zhou Yu's eyes gradually turned cold.
At this moment, the Hall Master suddenly spoke.
She sighed.
"I agree!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu immediately said:
"Since you agree, then actively release your Primordial Spirit and remove all defenses."
The Hall Master did not say anything further.
She simply did as Zhou Yu said and swiftly released her Primordial Spirit.
As the Hall Master herself stated, her Primordial Spirit was indeed weakened to the extreme.
The Primordial Spirit of a peak Emperor Realm powerhouse had actually become about the same as that of a Saint Realm powerhouse.
Without delay, Zhou Yu immediately released his Force of the Primordial Spirit, planting a Primordial Spirit Mark on the Hall Master's Primordial Spirit.
In this way, if the Hall Master harbored ill intentions, he could make her die with just a thought.
Of course, this was limited to when the Hall Master's Primordial Spirit hadn't recovered.
However, Zhou Yu estimated that for the Hall Master to recover her Primordial Spirit to its peak would take at least ten years.
In those ten years, Zhou Yu was confident he could cultivate to the Emperor Realm.
By then, the situation would be entirely different.
Everything went smoothly.
Soon, Zhou Yu planted his Primordial Spirit Mark in the Hall Master's Primordial Spirit.
After completing all this, Zhou Yu also breathed a sigh of relief.
The Hall Master silently took back her Primordial Spirit.
She sighed deeply and then spoke with a complicated expression.
"Truly a single misstep leads to lasting regret."
"Who would have thought the mighty Pill God Temple Master, a peak Emperor Realm martial artist, would be pressured to this extent by you, a junior."
"Now, you can rest assured, can't you?"
Zhou Yu somewhat understood the Hall Master's mood.
However, he had no choice.
Zhou Yu shrugged and said.
"Of course."
"I keep my word."
"As long as you can keep the secret, you will be safe."
"And I will give you the respect you deserve."
Zhou Yu promised.
Then, he suddenly remembered something.
"By the way, Hall Master, I still don't know your name."
The Hall Master sighed.
"Mo Shan."
Zhou Yu smiled slightly.
"Okay."
"Then, Hall Master, should you hand over that Heavenly Law Dao Bead to me now?"
Upon hearing this, the Hall Master's figure paused. Clearly, she was unwilling, for she fully understood the secret of the Heavenly Law Dao Bead now.
Who wouldn't want to embark on the path of cultivation?
But she had no other choice but to hand it over.
The Hall Master slowly closed her eyes, and then, accompanied by a violent ripple of Primordial Spirit aura, a bead radiating gray brilliance floated out from her body.
This bead was another Heavenly Law Dao Bead.
Seeing the second Heavenly Law Dao Bead, Zhou Yu couldn't suppress the excitement on his face.
He immediately used Tai Chu Skill to grab this Heavenly Law Dao Bead through the air, then carefully stored it away.
Zhou Yu had already decided that once he left the Pill God Temple, he would immediately find a safe place to refine this second Heavenly Law Dao Bead.
Seeing Zhou Yu take away the Heavenly Law Dao Bead, the Hall Master sighed again and turned away.
"Hall Master, shall we go now?"
Zhou Yu asked with a smile.
The Hall Master shook her head.
"Leave by yourself."
"I want to cultivate here and recover my injuries."
After speaking, she found a token from her body and threw it to Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu received the token and saw that it was made of Mystic Ice Spirit Jade, carved with intricate patterns. In the center, it had an ancient character for 'Dan'.
"This is the Hall Master Token. Seeing this token is like seeing the Hall Master."
"This token can mobilize all resources of the Pill God Temple, which serves as a pledge of allegiance. I hope you truly keep your promise." The Hall Master looked deeply at Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu did not hold back; he stored the token and said:
"Rest assured, I keep the promise."
After saying this, Zhou Yu left the array barrier by himself.
