Chapter 134: Chapter 134: Speculations about the Third Test (Part 3)
Players were enthusiastically dismembering the beast carcass, drawing the attention of many from the Jianghu.
"Despite all these treasures around you, you people of the Profound Yellow Sect don’t go after them, but instead, you’re interested in this beast? Are you out of your minds?"
But the players couldn’t care less about what the Jianghu people thought.
"What’s the big deal about gold, silver, and jewelry?" one player scoffed. "We want Contribution Points! And Contribution Points can be exchanged for gold, silver, and jewelry anyway. Who cares about that stuff?"
Little Boss skillfully set up a pot to cook, while a few players had already prepared a chopping board and Wolf Meat on the rocks nearby.
"Boss, should we stir-fry or make a clear broth? Red-braised Wolf Meat could be good too!"
"Let’s taste it first. If it’s not good, we won’t take it with us."
"So, stir-fry? That’s also the most convenient."
"Let’s marinate it a bit first. The soy sauce didn’t get smashed, did it?"
"Don’t worry, Boss. I put all the seasonings in the passage; they’re definitely safe. I’ll go get them now!"
Zhao Qixian and Kong Qingquan made some arrangements, telling disciples from the Celestial One Daoist Sect and Little Sage Manor to go search for exceptional Martial Arts Manuals on their own. Meanwhile, they approached with smiling faces.
Back at the Profound Yellow Sect, they had tasted Little Boss’s cooking. He could make food that emitted a Golden Light, a unique talent in the world! More importantly, the disciple’s culinary skills were actually quite good, truly a master at turning rice into an art form.
Seeing that Little Boss was going to cook Wolf Meat here, the two of them also came forward to watch.
"Young friend, are you planning to cook this beast’s meat?"
Zhao Qixian stroked his beard and said with a smile, "How does this stuff taste when cooked? Why don’t I, this old man, help you taste-test it?"
Little Boss was well aware of their intentions. But with so much Wolf Meat, it was impossible for them to finish it all. Besides, they did indeed need someone to taste-test it. What if the Wolf Meat was poisonous? Would they waste Contribution Points for a Reincarnation just like that? It was better to let Zhao Qixian try it, at least to ensure that the players wouldn’t waste Contribution Points on a Reincarnation!
"No problem!" Little Boss nodded. "Please wait a moment, you two. It can be stir-fried after marinating for a while."
「Within the stone walls.」
The players were also wandering aimlessly. It seemed that besides these valuable items, there was nothing else here.
Junlin and his team walked over the multitude of gold, feeling all kinds of emotions. How great would it be if this was reality? With so much Gold, Silver, and Jewelry, they could literally bathe in it every day.
Abbess, Don’t Love Me went to a corner and picked up some crystal-like objects that were piled there to take a look.
[Congratulations to the player for discovering Lower-grade Spiritual Stones.]
Huh??? Lower-grade Spiritual Stones? Seriously, are we starting to cultivate immortality now?
"Junlin, you guys, come over here and take a look at this!" Abbess, Don’t Love Me called out to Junlin and his team.
Immediately, several people gathered around. The Abbess was known for his European Emperor-style luck, able to find many good items that others had missed.
Everyone looked at the pile of crystal-clear little stones, almost enough to fill a basin, and their expressions became strange. So what we’re playing isn’t a Wuxia Game at all, but a Xianxia game dressed up in Wuxia trappings? Give me a break! If Xianxia elements are appearing now, wouldn’t our meager power get us instantly killed by someone’s Flying Sword?
"Let’s pack them up first. We can discuss it after we get back!"
Neighbor Six mused, "There should be more Lower-grade Spiritual Stones here. Let’s keep looking."
The appearance of Lower-grade Spiritual Stones was undoubtedly a very important signal. If the Second Test involved the Nine Dragons Secret Treasure, could the Third Test possibly mark the opening of the Xianxia world? By then, these Lower-grade Spiritual Stones would be incredibly useful. This was an item that transcended game versions, so they had to secure them. They would look for related news on the Official Website after logging off. This game was definitely not simple. The Third Test might still be a ways off, but it was bound to be the most eventful!
「Meanwhile, on the other side.」
A group of Jianghu people used their Martial Arts to forcibly bring down a wall. Behind that wall, they saw a floor scattered with all sorts of books.
"Martial Arts Manuals, Martial Arts Manuals, we’ve found them!"
"Damn it, get out of my way, all these manuals are ours!"
"Snatch them! With so many manuals, there’s definitely something for me."
"Wait a second, is that a Skeleton in the corner?"
Behind this wall, there was also a strange Skeleton. The clothes on it were covered with a thick layer of dust but showed no signs of decay. In fact, there were black patterns all over the Skeleton itself, as if these patterns were innately part of the bone. Such a Skeleton was something they had never seen before.
But compared to the Skeleton, the Jianghu people were more frantically scrambling for the books. In their eyes, these books were their true target.
Just as the Ninth Prince and his group were about to join in, they saw the Eighth Prince walk out slowly alone. Luo Qingbei?!
Leading them, Luo Chenjun narrowed his eyes, watching Luo Qingbei approach those Jianghu people.
Then, under everyone’s gaze, Luo Qingbei dismantled the Skeleton and casually tossed it on the ground. What was Luo Qingbei trying to do?
In the next moment, Luo Qingbei picked up the garment and with a mocking glance at those around him, put on the garment in front of everyone.
Wearing a dead person’s clothes? What is this situation? Everyone couldn’t help but inhale sharply. Luo Qingbei seemed to exude a very strange aura at that moment.
Gold, Silver, and Jewelry? Martial Arts Manuals? Those are just trash, Luo Qingbei inwardly sneered. The real treasure is this garment, you pitiful, insightless fools. Wearing the garment that was not the slightest bit decayed, he walked towards Luo Chenjun and his group.
"Eighth Brother, it seems that Father Emperor has shared quite a bit with you," Luo Chenjun said, smiling thinly.
Hearing this, Luo Qingbei just glanced at him faintly, then sneered, "You’ll know once you return. There are some things you, Ninth, are unaware of."
At this remark, Luo Chenjun’s eyes widened, staring fixedly at Luo Qingbei.
He saw Luo Qingbei walk over to Shen Rongyin, who then slightly lowered her head in fear, quietly standing behind Luo Qingbei.
This doesn’t look like a mother and son at all but rather... Master and servant?! Who could make a proud woman like Shen Rongyin submit?
A terrifying thought suddenly flashed across his mind, combined with Luo Qingbei’s comment just now. Ninth... It had been a while since he had heard that address. It seemed there might only be one person who would call him that!
An inexplicable chill ran down Luo Chenjun’s spine, a cold sweat breaking out all over his body as his face turned deathly pale with fear.
At that moment, he seemed to understand why Shen Rongyin had been able to survive that incident, and why Luo Yushu was the one who had been imprisoned...
