Yuwen Longyuan was sowhat pleasantly surprised.
"So, Master Pu, you agree to join Wuwang?"
Pu Guan nodded. "Of course."
"However, Dragon Commander, I've heard a little about Wuwang's operation targeting Lu Ding last ti. If nothing unexpected happened... the manpower on your side now..."
Yuwen Longyuan responded helplessly. "Indeed, there aren't many people. After you join, there will only be two people I can really put to good use."
"One is you."
"The other... I'm not really at liberty to reveal. But I can tell you, it's precisely because of him that I managed to survive Lu Ding's hands."
"What do you think of such strength?"
Upon hearing this, Pu Guan's thoughts ran wild.
If he could dig out this Wuwang mber who managed to save this Dragon Commander fellow from Lu Ding and hand him over to Grand Duke Lu...
Pu Guan's eyes shifted craftily.
"Being able to save soone from under the Corpse-Shattering Taishui's hands is indeed rare. I wonder if you could introduce ? Let et this remarkable person?"
Yuwen Longyuan shook his head. "That might not be possible. He is my trump card, and I don't even know where he is right now."
"Unless it's a critical matter, I can't contact him. He has a bad temper, is very particular, and is probably quite busy in real life."
Pu Guan knew this kind of thing couldn't be rushed, or it would startle the snake.
Of course, he laughed it off. "Then we'll et him next ti. Dragon Commander, what should we do now..."
Yuwen Longyuan stood up. "I'll go register your identity first."
"After that's done, I'll go get the things to help you accelerate the ripening of the Spirit Dragon Spirit Root."
This was one of Pu Guan's conditions.
Accelerating the ripening of the Spirit Dragon Spirit Root.
When the Spirit Dragon Spirit Root was stolen before, it wasn't fully ripe yet, so its dicinal efficacy was sowhat lacking.
It had to be fully ripe before consumption for Pu Guan to have so confidence in breaking through the Fifth Restriction directly to God Ascension.
"That's excellent."
As the two were speaking.
On the other side.
Having finished cleaning up the Slaughter Goddess Temple, Lu Ding was studying the 'Slaughter Heart' he had dug out from within the Slaughter Goddess's body.
He asked, "What's the use of this thing?"
Zhan Tingzhou, beside him, replied, "Rumors say this thing contains several extrely powerful killing moves."
"Moreover, if soone can replace their own heart with this Slaughter Heart, they can rge with it."
"But there are two prerequisite requirents."
"Either one's own natural talent must be exceptional. Otherwise, it's unusable. Because the Slaughter Heart has an imnse killing nature. If one cannot comprehend its killing nature, they will be assimilated by the Slaughter Heart, becoming a machine that only knows slaughter. But once comprehended, the path of slaughter becos instinct."
"Or one must have a special physique. A half-corpse is best."
The forr was sothing Zhan Tingzhou learned in his previous life later on, and there was one more piece of information he didn't ntion.
That was, a person possessing the 'Slaughter Heart' could gain the opportunity to enter a certain Slaughter Heart Holy Temple located outside of Great Han.
But that holy temple hadn't unlocked yet.
It wouldn't be too late to ntion it when the ti was right.
As for the second condition, it was because, in his previous life, this 'Slaughter Heart' was obtained by Bai Hen, and it was a perfect fit.
Later, Bai Hen also entered the Slaughter Path Holy Temple, killing everything in sight.
This attracted pursuit from multiple parties. Even though he eventually exhausted all ans to flee back to Great Han, he still suffered significant injuries.
But that battle established Bai Hen's fearso reputation as Jijing Futuo.
Countless disciples from ancient families and ancient inheritances died by his hand.
Half-human, half-corpse, sustaining battle with battle, using other families' disciples as blood bags to allow him to recover quickly within the Slaughter Path Holy Temple.
No one knew how many people he drained of their blood.
Of course, this was all hearsay to Zhan Tingzhou. He wasn't qualified to enter the Slaughter Path Holy Temple back then.
As for its truthfulness.
Zhan Tingzhou felt so of it was credible, and so was intentionally exaggerated.
Now that Bai Hen hadn't arrived.
His opportunity must be intercepted for Lu Ding!!
Although Lu Ding didn't et the second condition, his talent was more than sufficient for the first condition.
Listening to the two conditions Zhan Tingzhou stated, Lu Ding felt neither held much appeal for him.
He already had [Fear-Killing Asura], so there was no need to install a heart that didn't belong to him.
Mainly, Lu Ding wanted to keep his original, factory-spec condition.
Having sothing foreign inside his body felt weird. Becoming soone else's shape... was that right?!
As for the unntioned condition by Zhan Tingzhou about needing the Slaughter Heart to enter the Slaughter Path Holy Temple, in the face of [White Snake Shakes Scales]...
It was completely...
[White Snake Shakes Scales]: Need the Slaughter Heart to go? I can't go? Are you saying I can't go!? How big is this Slaughter Path Holy Temple? Is there a place I can't enter?
So, the only thing that held so slight attraction for Lu Ding was the high-powered killing moves said to be gestating within the 'Slaughter Heart'.
He asked, "How powerful are they?"
"Can they compare to my island?"
Zhan Tingzhou: ........
If you're going to compare it like that, he had nothing to say. Forget the killing moves within the Slaughter Heart, even looking back on Zhan Tingzhou's entire previous life, he had never seen anything like the 'Golden Ao Island'.
He imdiately shook his head.
Lu Ding asked again. "Then, can they compare to my Slash Attack?"
He had seen that Slash Attack many tis. It either didn't co out, or it couldn't be blocked. Looking at all of Lu Ding's battles, not a single person could withstand his Slash Attack head-on, or dared to.
Its power was simply outrageous.
Not to ntion the Slash Attack Lu Ding perford when drawing his blade.
Zhan Tingzhou still shook his head.
Lu Ding frowned and finally asked, "Then... can they compare to this, this, and this?"
As he spoke.
His left hand held [Torture-Crushing Great Rotation], his right hand held [Purple Tenuity Heavenly Fire], and before his chest, swallowing light to create darkness, [Black Devours Sun].
Zhan Tingzhou: ........
Shake head, shake head, still shaking his head.
Seriously, how do you have so many good things!?
Who's the one who's supposed to be reborn here?
Lu Ding dispersed the spells.
"Forget it then, I don't fancy it. Do you want it?"
Zhan Tingzhou hadn't expected Lu Ding to offer him such a precious item as the Slaughter Heart. Although, by comparison, Lu Ding indeed seed to look down on it, Zhan Tingzhou was still moved in his heart.
But he still refused. "This isn't suitable for ."
It wasn't that the 'Slaughter Heart' was bad, but he had sothing more suitable that he needed to inherit.
The 'Slaughter Heart' would take up that slot.
What Zhan Tingzhou was scheming for was the Seven-Apertures Exquisite Heart.
"You don't want it either........"
"Didn't you just say this thing is compatible with half-corpses? Is that the half-human, half-corpse kind of half-corpse?"
Zhan Tingzhou nodded. "Yes."
Lu Ding stuffed the thing into the Red Coffin. "Then I know who to give it to. I'll thank you on his behalf for now. When he arrives, I'll have him thank you himself."
It wasn't that Lu Ding hadn't thought of Bai Hen earlier.
But one must be principled in conduct and affairs; there must be rules.
This thing was discovered by him and Zhan Tingzhou together, and Zhan Tingzhou provided the intel.
Although the thing was given to him.
If Lu Ding didn't want it, he had to ask Zhan Tingzhou first. Only if neither of them, as the participants, wanted it, could Lu Ding give it to soone else.
It's like... a friend gives you a gift, and you imdiately give it to soone else... that's... impolite.
