Inside a courtyard near the sea on the west side of Five Immortals Island, Redbeard’s Jie Lue was looking grimly at Old Geng’s Primordial Spirit as it roared hysterically.
Previously, it was Redbeard Jie Lue who used that move "Star Fire that Can Set the Prairie Ablaze" to rescue Old Geng.
Under no circumstances could Old Geng fall into the hands of Five Immortals Hall, even if it ant exposing his identity.
Fortunately, Old Geng was rescued, though it was only his Primordial Spirit.
The Primordial Spirit is ford from the Innate Divine Soul and the Martial Artist’s Divine Soul Power through countless condensed refinents, looking very much like the Martial Artist, essentially a miniature version of one.
Compared to the Innate Divine Soul, the Primordial Spirit is more powerful, and even without a physical body, it can survive for a long ti.
Unlike the Innate Divine Soul, once the physical body is lost, the Divine Soul Power diminishes with each use and cannot recover.
The Primordial Spirit is different; it can perform all sorts of Divine Power Secret Techniques, can even cultivate, and crucially, its flying speed is not much slower than the physical body.
"How could that person with the surna Di be connected with the Mountain God Yi Xun of Five Immortals Hall?"
"Didn’t you have soone watching that person with the surna Di at all tis, saying he never took a single step away?"
"How did he contact Yi Xun? Did you do it on purpose?" The last sentence shouted out, even Old Geng himself suddenly realized he misspoke and hurried to restrain himself a little.
But as for Redbeard Jie Lue, his expression did not change at all, still looking gloomy.
"The strength of that old thing Yi Xun, it’s been years since I saw him make a move, has beco so strong?"
"It’s all the fault of that little brat Di Kuohai, if it weren’t for him, how could I stumble so big?"
"This ti, once I’m recovered, I must tear that kid to pieces, refine his Divine Soul into an Artifact Soul, **** tornt him night after night......"
......
The Primordial Spirit of the bodiless Old Geng roared hysterically, venting for a long ti, suddenly realizing, his old partner Redbeard Jie Lue hadn’t said a word for the whole ti.
"Hey, Beard, it’s been a while, why haven’t you said anything?" Old Geng suddenly asked.
"I’ve been considering what we should do next, and at the sa ti, waiting for you to calm down." Jie Lue said in a low voice.
Old Geng’s old face blushed, he was really driven mad with anger.
However, if any Realm King Realm powerhouse’s physical body was destroyed, they would be driven mad with anger, as it ans the day of entering Dao Realm has been indefinitely postponed.
No Realm King Realm powerhouse existing as a Primordial Spirit Body has ever been able to enter Dao Realm.
Even if he finds a suitable body in the future, without soul and body becoming one, there is no possibility of aspiring to Dao Realm.
Jie Lue brought up this heavy topic, instantly putting imnse pressure on Old Geng, "Ti is running out, tonight’s action failed, and the latest by tomorrow afternoon, this batch of Spirit Stones has to be accounted for, what do we do?"
The original plan was, Ye Zhen’s hand had at least three million High-Grade Spiritual Stones in wealth, as long as they killed Ye Zhen, not to ntion anything else, just Ye Zhen’s Acquired Spirit Treasure alone would be enough to make a fortune.
If Ye Zhen had a few more treasures, maybe their deficit could be filled.
But now, they failed, not only failed, he also lost his body.
"I’m thinking....." Jie Lue shrugged, "But so far, I haven’t thought of any good solution."
Old Geng’s Primordial Spirit turned into a little man with a tightly furrowed brow, "Beard, what do you say we beco great thieves tonight, target so smaller businesses, rob three to five of them, should be able to gather enough?"
"Stop dreaming, Old Geng!"
Jie Lue rcilessly interrupted Old Geng’s delusion, "Just now I rescued you, my identity was already completely exposed, from the thods used, Five Immortals Hall recognized my identity.
Even as a matter of rules, they can’t do anything to us, but now there are definitely countless experts monitoring our every move, if we dare to cause trouble again, we wouldn’t even know how we’d die.
To Five Immortals Hall, the stability of Five Immortals Island is above all else!"
"Moreover, even small businesses aren’t ones we can rob at will, even if the robbery succeeds, it doesn’t guarantee we’d get Spirit Stones, anyone with the backing of one or two realms behind their business on Five Immortals Island?" Jie Lue said.
Old Geng was stunned at these words, "So this road is unfeasible? So what do we do? Are we to wait for the Boss to settle us?"
At the thought of the Boss’s thods, Old Geng shivered, the clansn and descendants he had settled sowhere, not one might escape, right?
"This road certainly doesn’t work, but Heaven never bars one’s way, I have already thought of a way to solve this." Jie Lue said.
Old Geng was delighted, "Beard, I knew you’d have a way, quickly tell !"
Jie Lue, however, was not in a hurry to speak, instead twirling his red beard, starting to pace slowly, "Allow to perfect it further."
With that, Jie Lue slowly paced to Old Geng’s Primordial Spirit, without warning, a spray of Soul Light shot from Jie Lue’s palm, grabbing Old Geng’s Primordial Spirit in his grip.
"You.... what are you doing?"
"Beard, we’ve shared life-and-death friendship for over a thousand years? You wouldn’t.... you...."
Amidst the exclamation, Old Geng’s eyes revealed a trace of despair, he understood Beard too well.
And precisely because he understood Redbeard Jie Lue so well, he knew once Jie Lue made a decision, he would never change.
"Old Geng, tell , with less than half a day left, where could we fill those over eight million High-Grade Spiritual Stones?"
"rchants know our Changlin Trading House suffered heavy losses, no one is willing to lend us anything, or if they do, the interest is terrifying. Old Geng, I truly can’t figure it out!" Jie Lue seed to murmur as he explained to Old Geng.
Old Geng cried out in fear, "Beard, let’s think of a way, there must be a way, after all these years, what hurdle haven’t we overco....."
Jie Lue seed not to hear Old Geng at all, continuing to speak to himself, "I’m truly out of options, Old Geng!"
"It’s better for one of us to die than for both clans to be wiped out!"
"Rest assured, your lineage, I will imdiately send a trusted aide over, select two or three geniuses to carefully nurture, to ensure your bloodline continues!"
.....
"You...."
In Jie Lue’s grasp, Old Geng’s eyes bulged in anger, he already knew what Jie Lue was going to do, he was going to use his life as the scapegoat, to fra him, use his life to fill the deficit.
"You.... you... you....." You’d for a long ti, Old Geng suddenly deflated like a balloon, resignedly letting out a sigh.
"Would you really ensure my bloodline continues?"
"After over a thousand years of life-and-death friendship, this part I can promise. And rest assured, I, Jie Lue, today swear to the spirits of the Primordial Era, that I will cut that traitor Kuohai into pieces, avenge you!" As Jie Lue swore, there really was a peculiar ripple of power passing through.
Old Geng was dazed, swearing to the spirits of the Primordial Era is the most binding vow, though he has little choice, he is satisfied.
Not satisfied, what else can he do?
He has no choice!
After a while, under Jie Lue’s control and surveillance, Old Geng wrote a confession, confessing to his collusion with a shopkeeper to embezzle a huge sum of Spirit Stones, knowing the cri was unforgivable, begged the Boss’s forgiveness, to spare his clansn’s path, finally, imprinting it with his Divine Soul Seal.
"Beard, don’t forget your promise!" Old Geng roared after handing over the confession Jade Scroll to Redbeard Jie Lue.
"Rest assured!"
Receiving the confession Jade Scroll, Red flas flared in Jie Lue’s palm, instantly turning Old Geng’s Primordial Spirit to ash, leaving only a trace of vague True Spirit remaining.
This True Spirit, Jie Lue would hand over to the Boss for disposal.
As for the promise, Jie Lue would definitely dismber Ye Zhen, this hatred, this enmity, he would also avenge it.
As for keeping a sliver of Old Geng’s bloodline, to ensure it continues, he wouldn’t do that if he were kicked in the head by a donkey.
Does he really think the Boss is a fool?
