Ye Luo had naturally prepared in advance, so with a casual wave of his hand, a piece of the Fruit of Life appeared in his hand. This was deliberately done by Ye Luo; although cutting the Fruit of Life would inevitably waste so life force, Ye Luo absolutely could not reveal a second Fruit of Life this ti!
In fact, he could not even take out a whole one!
As the saying goes, ’A man without sin can be guilty by harboring treasure.’ Moreover, if these near-death Dragon Clan elders discovered that Ye Luo possessed a complete Fruit of Life, wouldn’t they risk everything to fight Ye Luo for it?
After all, they were about to die; what by then would they not dare to do?
Therefore, Ye Luo had processed the fruit pieces, turning them into dried fruit while preserving as much life force as possible, reducing potential troubles.
After all, there’s a difference between fresh fruit and dried fruit!
At this mont, the piece of fruit Ye Luo took out was very small, only about the size of a fingernail, but it was enough to catch the attention of the Dragon Clan elder.
After all, for these elders whose life force was nearing its end, the breath of life force was extrely appealing!
"Life force! It’s actually life force!"
The elder did not hesitate to snatch the piece of fruit from Ye Luo’s hand!
Of course, that was all he did, with no further actions possible.
Since Ye Luo could enter this place and claid to have been sent by Ao Long, there must have been so reason, so the elder couldn’t forcibly snatch it.
"Young man, is this the Fruit of Life? Did Ao Long send you to find ? Do you have more Fruit of Life? What do you want? Or rather, what would it take for you to give the Fruit of Life to ?"
A series of questions, proving the imnse allure of the Fruit of Life’s flesh to the elder!
"Junior Ye Luo, greets senior. Indeed, it was my ntor who sent to find you. My ntor ntioned that he has a good relationship with you, so he had bring the Fruit of Life to visit you."
Ye Luo said simply, but that’s all he said.
As for the Fruit of Life? Apart from that fingernail-sized piece, Ye Luo did not take out another piece.
How could the Dragon Clan elder not hear Ye Luo’s implication? Visiting with the Fruit of Life? Only a fingernail-sized piece? Clearly impossible.
Ao Long just wanted his treasured disciple to gain benefits here!
As for Ye Luo’s half-dragon form, the elder could naturally see through it at a glance, but it was not sothing he cared about. Ao Long taking on a half-dragon human race youngster as a disciple was not his concern; what he cared about was the Fruit of Life!
In his hand, he naturally had so good items. After all, Ye Luo sought him out through a process of selection, with Ao Dan having introduced these elders to him. It’s certain that this elder had a lot of good things.
He was once being grood to beco the Dragon King, but when reaching the Late Stage, his cultivation stagnated, thus not inheriting the Dragon King’s position!
Although there seed to be quite a few Dragon Kings in the Dragon Clan, being a Dragon King ant having more treasures than regular elders!
The Dragon Clan elder understood Ye Luo’s implication, and naturally didn’t hesitate. To him, his treasures were useless if he couldn’t break through or obtain life force, as he was facing imminent death.
At this mont, with the opportunity to obtain the Fruit of Life, why hesitate?
With a casual wave, a Qiankun Ring landed in Ye Luo’s hand.
"Since you are Ao Long’s disciple, as your elder, I won’t treat you unfairly. Consider these items my gift to you. Furthermore, if you like anything in my cave, feel free to take it!"
Indeed, Ye Luo was making a transaction with this Dragon Clan elder, but it wasn’t sothing done lightly.
After all, these Dragon Clan elders were influential figures; their age alone commanded respect.
If he outright ntioned the transaction, it might not be received well!
Thus, Ye Luo used Ao Long’s na to conduct a transaction under the guise of a visit!
This approach wouldn’t offend these elders!
Ye Luo glanced at the contents of the Qiankun Ring; although not abundant, they were indeed valuable items.
After all, these elders, knowing their end was near, likely left the best items for their descendants; Ye Luo was satisfied, understanding that the elder had offered almost all he had, or he wouldn’t have said that Ye Luo could take anything he liked from there.
"Thank you, senior, for the gift! These Fruit of Life pieces were obtained by chance during a Secret Realm exploration, but due to my limited ability and worry that the fruit would spoil over ti, I turned them into dried fruit. According to my ntor’s wishes, I’ll present all the dried fruit to you, as you need these Fruits of Life more than I do!"
As Ye Luo spoke, he took out a large pile of fruit pieces from the Qiankun Ring, amounting to the size of a fist.
At least, in the elder’s eyes, it was indeed a whole Fruit of Life!
Thus, he naturally wouldn’t doubt it!
The Fruit of Life, exceedingly rare, is not easily obtained!
A fist-sized Fruit of Life was already quite impressive!
Moreover, with Ye Luo’s capability, if he had obtained a larger Fruit of Life, it might raise suspicions!
"Good, good, lad, if I’m able to overco this ordeal this ti, I’ll definitely repay you greatly in the future!"
The life force contained in a fist-sized Fruit of Life was extrely important to these nearly expiring Dragon Clan elders.
In all, it might grant him roughly three more years of life!
For the Dragon Clan, three years may not be much, but to him, on the brink of depletion, three years was a significant opportunity.
Moreover, with these three years, he had more chances to break through!
Having obtained what he desired, Ye Luo naturally didn’t linger, and the elder was in no mood to entertain Ye Luo, as he was at the most critical juncture. Whether he could break through and extend his life depended on this last effort, so he naturally wouldn’t concern himself with Ye Luo!
First target accomplished!
Ye Luo’s lips curled slightly.
A fist-sized piece of fruit?
Frankly, in Ye Luo’s eyes, it wasn’t considered much, as the smallest Fruit of Life he obtained from the Life Tree was the size of a human head!
