85: Chapter 85 Evolution of Silverscale Bubble Fish

Wang Ye looked at the golden badge and felt a wave of dizziness.

He knew he had kicked an iron plate.

Unless he could silently get rid of all these people... including his subordinates and this Senior Cultivator who shouldn't have appeared here.

Otherwise, if the news of this got out, he was definitely dead.

At this moment, Wang Ye thought of several ways to cope.

First, kneel and apologize, admitting that he was a piece of trash.

Although it would be embarrassing in front of his subordinates, perhaps the Senior Cultivator would be magnanimous and forgive him? In the face of life and death, what is face worth?

Second, hit himself with a club and tell himself it was all a hallucination.

As long as he didn't believe it, it wasn't real.

What Senior Cultivator? It didn't exist.

What Guardian? It didn't exist.

His Sandstorm Crocodile was killed instantly? Who is the Sandstorm Crocodile? I don't know it.

As long as he played dumb, no one could convict him!

Third, fight to the death and kill this Senior Cultivator.

He couldn't live anyway, so he might as well die with a reputation. Unyielding until death. Killing a Senior Cultivator before dying—even if the leader was implicated, they would have to add "You damn good man" when scolding him.

Wang Ye's expression changed, brainstorming, but only a moment passed.

"Hey!" Li Yu called out.

Wang Ye returned to his senses, made up his mind, squeezed a stiff smile onto his face, and said: "Brother, you, you speak. Why didn't I see you just now?"

"You were about to kill me, and you didn't see me?" Li Yu retorted.

"Misunderstanding, definitely a misunderstanding! That was all a joke..." Wang Ye passed on the 'play dumb' plan and executed the second plan!

He grabbed a heavy metal baseball bat from one of his men.

"You want to make a move against a Senior Cultivator?"

Chen Danian shouted coldly.

Song Jiang and the others prepared for battle. Not just them, but some members of the Earth Battle Group also turned their spears toward Wang Ye.

The next second, Wang Ye smashed the baseball bat against his own head.

"Bang!"

The sound was dull; not a good skull.

Wang Ye clutched his forehead in pain and cursed: "Damn it, why am I not unconscious yet..."

Hearing this, everyone was speechless.

So he wasn't attacking; he was trying to fake being unconscious.

Just as Wang Ye was about to execute the third plan, Li Yu suddenly shouted: "That's enough!"

"Brother, tell me what you need." Wang Ye spoke hurriedly, looking even more like a lackey than a lackey.

"I'll spare your life, but there must be a price. It wasn't easy for my friends to come here, and it wasn't easy for me to come here..."

Before Li Yu could finish, Wang Ye nodded hurriedly.

"I understand! I know the rules, brother."

He hurriedly signaled his subordinates to take out everything they had. In no time, cash, materials, and even a few small Earth Element Spirit Crystals were produced.

Li Yu didn't stand on ceremony and distributed these items to Song Jiang and the others. Wang Ye and his men were pardoned and scrambled away.

When Li Yu and Chen Qing said goodbye to Song Jiang and the others, their figures gradually disappeared into the desert.

Song Jiang and the others finally felt relieved.

"So scary, that woman..." Yang Juan said, still lingering in fear.

They hadn't understood Chen Qing's strength before, so they didn't think much of it, but after witnessing that sword strike, they all felt like needles were pricking their backs, terrified that if she felt like it, she would slice them up like vegetables.

"The good news is, she probably didn't really want to kill Li Yu," Chen Danian laughed. "With her strength, she wouldn't need to care about anyone's existence if she wanted to kill Li Yu."

"Feels like a twisted person," Yang Juan said.

Chen Danian nodded.

Doll Girl then proposed to leave: "Li Yu is fine, so I'll go first."

"Thanks for the backup."

"You're welcome. Our leader is counting on him for cultivation. Whether we can turn things around depends on him. I couldn't afford not to come," Doll Girl smiled.

"One thing at a time."

"Leaving."

It turned out that the reason they appeared here was not a coincidence.

When Chen Danian saw Chen Qing, his veteran experience told him—this person is not right.

After returning, the more he thought about it, the more wrong it felt, so he voiced his suspicions. Upon learning that Li Yu might be in danger, Yang Juan and Song Jiang didn't hesitate and rushed over.

Meeting Doll Girl halfway, Chen Danian worried that their strength wasn't enough, so he invited her too. He thought Doll Girl would decline or hesitate, but who knew that as soon as she heard Li Yu was in danger, she was even more anxious than them.

Thus, this scene happened, with the four of them gathering.

Li Yu left the Thick Earth Mystic Realm, went home first to take out the other top-grade Spirit Crystals, and then headed straight to Bright Moon Company.

Arriving at the Advanced Cultivation room.

Li Yu raised his hand to summon, bringing the Silver Scale Bubble Fish into mid-air.

Chen Qing stared blankly at the Bubble Fish.

"Your Royal Beast?"

"Yes, how is it?"

"Looks very delicious."

"..." Li Yu was speechless. "Chen Qing, mind your phrasing. What do you mean it looks delicious? It is very delicious... ah no, it's a Royal Beast. Who eats their own Royal Beast?"

The Silver Scale Bubble Fish widened its eyes, inexplicably feeling a chill down its spine.

"It looks very weak."

"So what if it's weak?"

"Survival of the fittest, so it is food."

Li Yu thought about it, and it seemed correct.

No, no!

He hurriedly shook his head, shaking away the strange thoughts in his mind, even though those thoughts had some appeal.

"Just wait, it will become very powerful soon, stronger than you," Li Yu said earnestly.

Chen Qing blinked.

"Oh."

"You don't believe me!"

"I responded."

"That still means you don't believe it."

"Some things can't be forced."

Li Yu felt a bit hurt. He realized once again how lethal Chen Qing's sudden remarks could be.

"Forget it, I won't argue with you. Just wait and see."

Li Yu finished speaking and took out all the Elemental Spirit Crystals.

Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Light, Dark.

In reality, there were more than just these Elemental Spirit Crystals; there were also extended Elemental Spirit Crystals like Wind, Thunder, and Ice, but what the Silver Scale Bubble Fish needed were the most basic Elemental Spirit Crystals.

Chen Qing was secretly proud of making Li Yu suffer, but the appearance of so many Spirit Crystals shocked her expression, almost causing her to lose control. Her face seemed to say—you have this many good things?

No wonder she was so surprised.

The cheapest of these Spirit Crystals cost millions to buy, and the rarest Earth Element Spirit Crystals cost several times more.

Any one of them could buy several homes like the one Li Yu currently lived in.

Li Yu brought over a bathtub-sized, strange device with a metal bottom and a glass top, placed it on the metal table, and pressed a button, opening a small hole above the glass cover.

He picked up the Fire Element Spirit Crystal. Noticing Chen Qing's inquisitive gaze, he casually explained: "These were gifted by the company as a reward for obtaining my Senior Cultivator certificate and officially starting the job."

"You intend to use all these Spirit Crystals on this fish?"

"Yes."

Li Yu picked up an ultrasonic knife and lightly sliced the Fire Element Spirit Crystal. With a "click," the Fire Element Spirit Crystal cracked open.

As the spiritual energy was about to erupt, Li Yu hurriedly let go, and the Spirit Crystal fell into the glass device.

Boom—

Surging Fire elemental energy erupted, turning into raging flames, rolling rapidly inside the glass cover, illuminating Li Yu in a fiery red glow.

The first piece, inserted.

Li Yu looked at the carefree Silver Scale Bubble Fish.

Please don't let anyone down.
