NOVEL NEXT Chapter 1346: The Key!
After leaving the array barrier, Zhou Yu immediately went to the place where Lin Luoluo was settled.
Lin Luoluo was anxiously pacing back and forth in the courtyard.
Seeing Zhou Yu return, Lin Luoluo immediately sighed in relief and rushed over.
"Zhou Yu, are you okay?"
Seeing that Lin Luoluo was fine, Zhou Yu also sighed in relief, then smiled and said:
"Don't worry, I'm fine."
"Mr. Lin, we can leave now."
"That's great."
This trip to the Pill God Temple was truly an eye-opener for Lin Luoluo.
Speaking of which, although she had encountered many martial artists before, this was the first time she truly witnessed the real Martial Arts World.
Scenes she had only seen in TV dramas before were vividly presented before her eyes this time.
She also gained a whole new understanding of Zhou Yu.
And it was precisely during this trip to the Pill God Temple that she finally realized that she and Zhou Yu were people from two different worlds all along.
This realization filled her with immense sadness.
She felt that she might never be able to walk together with Zhou Yu in her lifetime.
But heaven left no path completely blocked; she accidentally discovered that she was a Medicine Spirit Saint Body.
Although she did not know exactly what the Medicine Spirit Saint Body was for, she knew that possessing such a physique gave her a chance to become like Zhou Yu, or at least, have the opportunity to walk the same path as him.
This discovery made Lin Luoluo very excited.
However, helplessly, she still had many unresolved matters in the outside world.
What she wanted most now was to return quickly, handle the matters outside, and then return to the Pill God Temple.
At this point, Zhou Yu took Lin Luoluo out of the main hall.
Of course, before leaving, Zhou Yu still informed Vice Hall Master Li and others.
The exit of the Pill God Temple.
Zhou Yu came here once again.
Vice Hall Master Li, Venerable Hong, and others were already waiting there.
Seeing Zhou Yu, Vice Hall Master Li chuckled.
"Zhou Yu, thanks to you, we were able to remove the tumor that was Second Elder this time."
"The Hall Master also instructed earlier, from now on, our Pill God Temple's resources are at your disposal."
"Also, the Hall Master said to let Venerable Hong accompany you out of the Pill God Temple this time, considering you have many enemies outside, to help you."
Venerable Hong, standing nearby, obviously received the Hall Master's orders and was very respectful toward Zhou Yu.
He nodded politely at Zhou Yu.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu immediately understood the Hall Master's intentions.
This woman was worried that if he died outside, it would implicate her.
In any case, with Venerable Hong, an Emperor Realm Martial Artist's help, many things would indeed be much easier.
"Then, I would have to trouble Vice Hall Master Li and Venerable Hong in the future."
Zhou Yu said with a smile.
Both Vice Hall Master Li and Venerable Hong burst into laughter.
"No trouble at all; we're on the same side."
"By the way, I saved this person for you."
After saying this, Vice Hall Master Li raised his head, and Liu Tu immediately brought a person over.
This person was Zhu Yuanming.
At this moment, upon seeing Zhou Yu, Zhu Yuanming's face was full of fear, and he directly knelt on the ground.
This time, he was utterly scared.
A top hidden sect like the Pill God Temple treated Zhou Yu with such great respect, which meant that the power behind Zhou Yu had already surpassed what the forces in Hu City could handle.
In other words, the few forces in Hu City had no capital to contend against Zhou Yu anymore.
Now, he only had one way to go: to beg for mercy and submit.
"Mr. Zhou, I beg you, spare me."
"My Zhu Family is willing to submit to you, Mr. Zhou; just give my Zhu Family a chance at survival."
Facing Zhu Yuanming, Zhou Yu sneered.
"That depends on whether what you provide can satisfy me."
"If I didn't hear wrong, you mentioned another Ancient Spirit Land key to that old ghost Ju Chun."
"Where is it?"
Upon hearing Zhou Yu's words, Zhu Yuanming's face changed, and he quickly said:
"Mr. Zhou, if I tell you, would you spare my Zhu Family?"
Zhou Yu squinted his eyes.
"Do you think you are in a position to bargain with me now?"
Zhu Yuanming gritted his teeth and said:
"Mr. Zhou, I fully understand the principles of 'winners are kings, losers are bandits.'"
"I also know that the only thing in my possession that might interest you, Mr. Zhou, is this key to the Ancient Spirit Land."
"If you cannot agree to my terms, I would rather bet the entire Zhu Family and not say a word."
Having made up his mind, Zhu Yuanming spoke with determination.
He knew that without a promise from Zhou Yu, even if he spoke, the Zhu Family would not be safe.
His only hope now was to use this information to strike a deal with Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu squinted his eyes and stared at Zhu Yuanming.
Zhu Yuanming immediately felt a terrifying pressure descend. As someone in the Seventh Grade King Realm, he couldn't help but break into a cold sweat.
But he persisted, gritting his teeth.
After a moment, Zhou Yu withdrew all the pressure, and said faintly:
"Speak. If your information is truly useful, I can give the Zhu Family a chance at survival."
Hearing Zhou Yu finally agree, Zhu Yuanming also breathed a big sigh of relief.
He promptly said:
"Mr. Zhou, I believe in your character, that you would not go back on your word."
Then, he paused for a moment before carefully saying:
"Actually, I don't have the key to the Ancient Spirit Land in my possession. I initially mentioned it to deceive Ju Chun the old ghost into dealing with..."
Zhou Yu's eyes narrowed, and he said coldly:
"Are you playing me?"
