Chapter 887: Chapter 144: Tallying Battle Merits and Spoils, a Huge Harvest! (Part 2)

Upon seeing this, True Monarch Profound Resonance was furious,

"Zhou Xun and Ji Yin, how dare you claim that you’re not the criminals harming your kin! Even if it costs my life today, I will bring you to justice!"

He prepared to take action!

"Hold on, True Monarch Profound Resonance, must you truly be so oblivious to right and wrong?" Zhou Xun said angrily, then waved his hand,

Two fist-sized, entirely black round pearls appeared in front of them,

"Look at these, what do you see?"

As a Late-Stage Nascent Soul Cultivator, True Monarch Profound Resonance had previously participated in ambushes against the Ghost Race, and was naturally familiar with the appearance of a Tier Four High-Grade Ghost Pearl,

and thus he recognized it at once,

"High-Grade Ghost Pearls, how...how do you have these?" True Monarch Profound Resonance was at a loss, eyes filled with disbelief,

"As I stated clearly earlier, these two Ghost Pearls, Daoist Tianci and I risked our lives to obtain them!" Zhou Xun coldly chuckled.

"And that Blood Refining Ancestor had already arrived at this place, but he concealed himself, watching from the sidelines. It was only after Daoist Brother Tianci and I paid a heavy price to kill two High-Grade Ghost Kings,"

"that he revealed himself, intending to reap the benefits and take our lives!"

"Which is why we had no choice but to kill him in return!"

With his speech finished, Zhou Xun sneered, feeling that True Monarch Profound Resonance was truly a stubborn traditionalist!

"But... but Blood Refining Daoist is a Middle-Stage Nascent Soul Cultivator, with a Tier Four Middle-Grade Blood Demon General by his side, and a Blood Demon Emperor at his command,"

"Even I’m no match for him, how did you manage to kill him... Wait, with that many helpers, you might actually have a chance of defeating him!" True Monarch Profound Resonance was momentarily confused.

"If Daoist Brother Tianci and I were the kind to harm our own kind, would we speak to you so calmly and reasonably!" True Monarch Tianci also added a word.

"But... but..." At this point, even True Monarch Profound Resonance began to believe them to some extent,

However, the scene of Zhou Xun looting the Blood Refining Ancestor was still vivid in his mind,

At that moment, Zhou Xun’s Spirit Beast Bag stirred,

A purple light flew out, landing in front, transforming into a young man in a purple robe!

It was the Purple Flood Dragon Demon Emperor!

"Daoist Zi Yi!" True Monarch Profound Resonance was utterly shocked; the Purple Flood Dragon Demon Emperor had been in the West Desert for decades, earning great battle merits, and was naturally known to True Monarch Profound Resonance.

"Alas, Daoist Profound Resonance, you’ve been utterly confused this time!"

The young man sighed gently, then spoke:

"I heard everything Daoist Zhou said, it’s all true, and I can testify to it!" the Purple Flood Dragon Demon Emperor said,

Then he joined his hands, formed a seal, and lightly pointed,

A purple light flew out, forming a screen in front of them,

It replayed the earlier scene where Blood Refining Ancestor was forcing Zhou Xun and the others...

A moment later, True Monarch Profound Resonance finally believed Zhou Xun and the others, his face full of shame,

He stepped forward towards Zhou Xun and Daoist Tianci, bowed deeply, and gave a grand salutation:

"Daoist Zhou, Daoist Ji, it was my misjudgment, I apologize for the injustice to both of you!"

Seeing this, Zhou Xun coldly snorted and said: 𝑓𝑟ℯℴ𝓂

"I just hope that in the future, Daoist Brother doesn’t mistake the truth, if not for Daoist Brother Tianci and I having some measures, we might have died at your hands today!"

"Indeed not, indeed not, my intention was to capture you, to take you back to the main camp for True Monarch Yama to handle!" said a deeply embarrassed True Monarch Profound Resonance, quickly explaining.

As he spoke, he tapped his Storage Bag and took out an exquisite Jade Box, placing it before Zhou Xun,

"Inside, there are three ’Nine Revolutions Flesh Rejuvenation Pills’, which I’ve accumulated over many years, and today I offer them as a gift of apology!"

Upon hearing the words ’Nine Revolutions Flesh Rejuvenation Pill’, Zhou Xun couldn’t help but take notice,

This was a top-tier life-saving item. No matter how severe the injury, consuming one would lead to instant recovery,

Each pill was worth as much as one hundred Battle Merit Points!

This True Monarch Profound Resonance was indeed sincere, if a bit simple-minded!

"Very well, since True Monarch Profound Resonance says so, let this matter be written off!" Zhou Xun said, accepting the Jade Box and gently opening it,

A pure Spiritual Power wafted outward,

Inhaling deeply, Zhou Xun felt the pain within his body alleviate quite a bit, then took one pill and handed it to Daoist Tianci:

"Daoist Brother, quickly take this pill and meditate to recover!"

True Monarch Tianci didn’t delay, took the Spirit Pill, swallowed it whole, and began refining it. In just a dozen breaths,

True Monarch Tianci’s previously pale face started to regain its rosy hue,

At the same time, Zhou Xun swallowed a pill as well, joining True Monarch Tianci,

Sitting on the Cyan Gold Flood Dragon’s back, slowly speeding towards the direction of the main camp,

As for True Monarch Profound Resonance, he stood beside them in protection.

...

Half a month later, two Spirit Lights shot out from the Ghostly Mist Land, one cyan and one white,

The cyan one was a cyan gold flood dragon over ten zhang in length, none other than Zhou Xun’s Spirit Beast Xiaojin,

The white one was True Monarch Profound Resonance!

At this moment, Zhou Xun stood atop Xiaojin’s head, his hands behind his back,

Judging from his aura, he seemed to have fully recovered. After all, he had consumed a treasure pill worth one hundred Battle Merit Points,

Its effects were naturally evident.

On the other side, True Monarch Tianci also looked fully restored, conversing with True Monarch Profound Resonance.

Although True Monarch Profound Resonance had initially been blind to the facts, considering his intentions were noble, having come in response to a call for help,

And further considering his sincere apology, and having gifted the cherished ’Nine Revolutions Flesh Rejuvenation Pills’, Zhou Xun forgave him.

After returning to the main camp, they parted ways,

Zhou Xun and True Monarch Tianci planned to return to the Cave Mansion for some rest and recuperation,

They had recovered mostly after consuming the ’Nine Revolutions Flesh Rejuvenation Pills’, but having overexerted themselves, some minor issues still needed proper recovery,
