Chapter 1251 - 1249: Enhanced Physical Strength

Not only does Xu Changqiu understand Li Yuan Yi’s character well, but so does Wu Yanxu.

The two had once visited the Elixir Valley together, and neither was unfamiliar with Li Yuan Yi.

Actually, Xu Changqiu was aware of these things too, but he resolutely opened his mouth and said, "The current situation indeed has left me disheartened, so even if the Valley Master disagrees, I am determined to leave!"

"I won’t stay long in the Elixir Valley! If he forcefully keeps me here, then I can only prove my resolve with my life!"

Xu Changqiu directly expressed his steadfast stance.

Following suit, Wu Yanxu nodded and gritted his teeth, saying, "Old friend, since you’ve said this, I naturally need to respect your intentions! When you wish to leave, remember to inform me beforehand, and I will go with you!"

"The Star War Battlefield is so vast; I can’t believe we can’t find a place to settle?"

"Besides, I think Wang Zhan’s Sky Pavilion seems decent, reportedly those around Wang Zhan are all quite amiable, incomparable with the people on the Star War Battlefield!"

On the Star War Battlefield, there exists a principle for survival, which is to always think for oneself regardless of the circumstances!

This has been the established rule for ages.

After all, only when one’s strength becomes formidable does one truly master the way to survive.

The Star War Battlefield is originally a place where the weak are preyed upon, where naive sympathy cannot be displayed!

Yet Wang Zhan and his group are markedly different, even forming a team that advances and retreats together!

This is the most shocking aspect.

Beside them, Xu Changqiu slightly squinted his eyes, full of shock, saying, "Is what you’re saying true?"

"If not, then? We’re old pals, do you think I would deceive you?"

"Do you remember I once left the Elixir Valley for a time?"

"In fact, it was to investigate matters concerning the Sky Pavilion, also sort of preparing a way out for the two of us!"

Wu Yanxu lowered his voice, speaking slowly so only the two of them could hear.

Now they don’t even know how many informants surround them, for everyone wants to report on them to Li Yuan Yi to earn praise!

Li Yuan Yi has now returned to the Elixir Valley, everyone is aware of this mysterious Valley Master’s presence, understandably not daring to offend him easily!

Moreover, everyone wishes to establish relations with Li Yuan Yi, ensuring continuous residence in the Elixir Valley, possibly remaining undefeated!

Furthermore, obtaining a wealth of resources!

Thus rapidly enhancing their strength!

"Is what you’re saying true?"

"If that’s the case, it seems you’ve long thought of leaving Elixir Valley? Yet I am curious about how when the Valley Master was absent, the Elixir Valley was thriving!"

"And with you and me holding such status, people here dare not trouble us, how did this intent suddenly arise?"

Wu Yanxu’s words also left Xu Changqiu somewhat puzzled.

But he understood Wu Yanxu’s nature, this was certainly not an unfounded concern.

The situation now has Wu Yanxu and Xu Changqiu practically tied together, so he had no need to hide anything from Xu Changqiu.

Without hesitation, he directly said, "Have you noticed something? As the Valley Master secluded himself, every now and then in the morning, some people were missing!"

"And now after he’s exited seclusion, the situation not only remains but has intensified!"

"Yesterday, I heard some disciples have vanished again! Leaving no trace, as if they disappeared into thin air!"

"I suspect these incidents are related to Li Yuan Yi! Could it be he practices some bizarre technique? Hence needing people for cultivation?"

This was a harsh revelation.

Actually, Xu Changqiu had detected this matter too, but to avoid causing panic, he never disclosed it to anyone!

Including Wu Yanxu!

Yet unexpected was Wu Yanxu secretly investigating this matter.

Indeed, they were perfectly synchronized old comrades, always considering each other no matter what!

"Actually, my thoughts are similar to yours, but never provoke Li Yuan Yi, that man’s power is unfathomable, and rumor has it his divine skill has already reached perfection, if disturbed, he might act recklessly!"

"If he were to make a move against the two of us, we wouldn’t even have any chance to fight back, and in the end, we’d just have to surrender obediently!"

Xu Changqiu directly pointed out the pros and cons of the situation.

It’s always better to keep things stable.

Avoid any unforeseen changes.

Wu Yanxu, standing by, naturally understood these things as well and nodded heavily in agreement.

"Rest assured!"

"I will handle everything on this end!"

"All you need to do next is focus on your own tasks, do not get confused by these people! And don’t let them disturb your mindset, the people in Elixir Valley are just a bunch of trash!"

"They no longer focus on refining elixirs or improving their means; they are more about scheming and forming factions! It’s no longer the Elixir Valley it once was! We don’t need to waste time here, much less consider them too much!"

Xu Changqiu naturally understood this as well, quickly nodding in agreement.

"Alright!"

"Seeing your state now, I can finally relax!"

"There’s no need to worry too much anymore!"

"From now on, let’s work together. Once Wang Zhan walks out of this area, our mission will be completely done, and we will leave the Elixir Valley together!"

Wu Yanxu was silently praying in his heart, hoping Wang Zhan could get away safely.

However, he didn’t plan to tell Li Yuan Yi about Wang Zhan. Once Wang Zhan truly walks out of the Ninefold Thunder Sound Tower, he and Xu Changqiu would leave with Wang Zhan, without wasting time here!

Meanwhile, Xu Changqiu nodded in satisfaction and said with a beaming smile, "Alright, let’s do everything according to your intentions!"

In the blink of an eye, they had reached a consensus and hurried down the mountain.

Although they were ready to leave the Elixir Valley, they needed to properly handle everything in front of them to leave no room for Li Yuan Yi’s backlash!

Though much had changed in Elixir Valley, Wang Zhan was unaware of these.

During this time, they had been continuously absorbing the power of the miracle fruit, aiming to enhance their strength swiftly.

That day, Wang Zhan, while in the Ninefold Thunder Sound Tower, suddenly opened his eyes, feeling boundless power within his body.

He slowly lifted his hand, seeing a lightning bolt strike directly onto his body, yet Wang Zhan didn’t seem deeply affected!

As the sound of Heavenly Thunder resounded, Wang Zhan was heavily knocked to the ground, yet his body bore no external injuries, nor did anything change within him!

His posture became a bit disheveled!

Wang Zhan stood up from the ground, dusted off the dirt on his body, and a faint smile appeared on his lips as he said with a smile, "No wonder everyone wants to claim the miracle fruit, it truly is a good thing!"

"I didn’t expect it not only enhanced my strength but even made my physical body sturdier, it’s truly remarkable!"

"It seems, in the coming days, I need to find more time to further enhance my cultivation! Only then can I remain invincible!"

"I don’t know how long I’ve stayed here; now I’ve got to meet up with the others and see how they’re doing!"

Although Wang Zhan hadn’t gained much advancement, his physical robustness had increased significantly, meaning he could engage in hand-to-hand combat, and even if he were outmatched, he could get away using his strong physique!

This counts as one of his means.

As Wang Zhan entered the lower level of the Ninefold Thunder Sound Tower, his gaze fell on a few people beside him.

At this moment, the few were still in seclusion.

Only Zuo Linglong stood aside, holding a miracle fruit, lost in thought.

Even as Wang Zhan walked up behind him, he was completely unaware.

After all, there was a significant gap in strength between Zuo Linglong and Wang Zhan, and his senses weren’t as sharp as Wang Zhan’s, so not noticing Wang Zhan’s presence was understandable!

As the footsteps got closer, Zuo Linglong finally turned back swiftly, but after seeing Wang Zhan behind him, a slight smile appeared on his lips, and he quickly said, "I didn’t expect you’d finish your retreat so soon? I thought I’d have to wait here alone for a long time, but things turned out differently from what I thought!"

"Quick, tell me how much your strength has improved? It’s said that the miracle fruit contains very violent power, and if you can completely absorb all the power, it would be hugely beneficial to anyone!"

Wang Zhan didn’t hide anything and said with a smile, "You seem to exaggerate, my advancement isn’t that significant, just my body has become slightly tougher, nothing major at all!"

"But rest assured, at least I can protect you."
