70: Reclaim the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass and be rewarded with Nine Heavens Divine Thunder!

“This is the remains of an ancient Divine Beast Phoenix!”

“Although it has been dead for tens of thousands of years, there is still some phoenix essence blood within its remains!”

“Xiao Fanzi, while you have time now, quickly refine and consume this phoenix essence blood, and your body will undergo Nirvana and recover!”

Yaochi True Immortal’s voice echoed in Xiao Fan’s mind.

However, her voice was growing weaker and weaker.

By the end, her voice completely disappeared.

“Revered Master!” Xiao Fan shouted anxiously.

However, Yaochi True Immortal had already fallen into a deep sleep, lacking the strength to respond to Xiao Fan.

“Revered Master! Don’t worry, Disciple will definitely help you recover!”

Xiao Fan said very seriously.

The reason Revered Master had fallen into a deep sleep was because she had helped him, which led to her current state.

Thinking of all this, two figures appeared in Xiao Fan’s mind.

These were precisely the appearances of Chu Changge and Chu Hao, whom he had encountered before.

“Chu Changge, Chu Hao!!!” Xiao Fan gritted his teeth and said fiercely, his tone filled with resentment towards the two of them.

Immediately after, he walked towards the Phoenix remains and began to refine them.

He wanted to extract the phoenix essence blood hidden within these remains… At this moment, Chu Changge was following behind Chu Hao, moving quickly through a passage.

Chu Hao, who was originally walking in front, suddenly thought of something and immediately stopped.

“What’s wrong?”

Chu Changge saw that Chu Hao was acting strangely, so he also stopped and asked.

Chu Hao smiled and said, “Divine Son, why don’t you walk in front? Your strength is formidable, so it’s only right for you to lead the way!”

He had already suffered a loss once.

Chu Hao didn’t want to be used as a spear again; he didn’t want to block any more dangers for Chu Changge.

Having Chu Changge walk in front was the best option.

If they encountered that cunning boy again, and if his strength was still formidable, with Chu Changge holding him off, he could do more things.

For example, a perfect backstab!

Chu Hao’s little thoughts were easily seen through by Chu Changge.

“Alright, Brother Ritian, since you’re scared, then hide behind This Divine Son!”

Chu Changge wasn’t worried about Chu Hao doing anything to him from behind.

Before entering Lizhu Grotto-Heaven, Chu Hao wouldn’t dare to act against him.

Thinking of this, Chu Changge swapped positions with Chu Hao.

This time, he walked in front, and Chu Hao walked behind.

However, just as Chu Hao had swapped positions, he felt a hint of unease again.

The strange feeling made him frown involuntarily.

“Strange… What’s going on? Why, even after I swapped positions with him and he’s in front of me, do I still have this strange, uneasy feeling?”

Chu Hao muttered to himself.

“This must be an illusion!”

Chu Hao mumbled, not swapping back to his original position with Chu Changge to let him lead the way.

Compared to being a shield in front of Chu Changge, he preferred to hide behind the shield and be a hard spear!

The two walked for a while, and soon they sensed a scorching Qi.

Chu Changge saw that the Qi left by Xiao Fan was becoming increasingly Rich, and he knew that Xiao Fan was right ahead.

Without another word, he increased his speed, instantly leaving Chu Hao behind.

Chu Hao, who was behind, also reacted immediately.

“Damn it! That damned Chu Changge, he’s really cunning!”

Chu Hao cursed, a phantom of a Kunpeng materialized beneath his feet, and with extreme speed, he also chased after him.

Soon after, both of them simultaneously rushed out of the underground passage and arrived in this underground world.

They also saw a massive carcass.

That was the Phoenix remains, which was Xiao Fan’s Opportunity.

At this moment, Xiao Fan was refining the remains to extract the phoenix essence blood within them.

And he also noticed the arrival of Chu Changge and the others.

Suddenly, he panicked.

“Damn it! How did they catch up so quickly?!”

“Revered Master, what should Disciple do now?”

Xiao Fan’s face beneath his mask was filled with despair.

Without Revered Master’s help, he was just a small Meridian Connecting Realm Martial Artist.

Chu Changge and Chu Hao arrived here.

They looked at Xiao Fan but did not immediately attack.

They both seemed to be wary of the hidden power of that cunning boy.

Chu Hao glanced at Xiao Fan, noticing that his power had recovered to his original Meridian Connecting Realm cultivation, but after suffering a loss once, he dared not be careless.

He said indifferently, “Cunning boy, now let’s see where you can run, and if that power within you can still save you!”

Chu Changge also spoke, “Boy, hand over the nine-leaf sword grass, and This Divine Son can let you off!”

Xiao Fan’s face was full of struggle; the nine-leaf sword grass was an Opportunity Revered Master had prepared for him.

Revered Master had even fallen into a deep sleep to help him secure this Opportunity.

If he handed it over now, wouldn’t he be betraying Revered Master’s sacrifice for him?

However, if he didn’t hand over the nine-leaf sword grass, whether he could continue to live was another question.

Xiao Fan struggled for a while, but he still felt that preserving his life was paramount.

He could repay Revered Master’s sacrifice another time.

Xiao Fan looked up, his eyes fixed on Chu Changge and Chu Hao.

“If I hand over the nine-leaf sword grass, will you really let me go?”

Chu Changge nodded with a smile without hesitation, “Of course, This Divine Son always keeps his word!”

Chu Hao also nodded: “Indeed, as long as you give me the nine-leaf sword grass, I will definitely let you leave this place!”

Xiao Fan looked at the two of them, and he began to think about who to give the nine-leaf sword grass to.

After all, there was only one stalk of this grass, but there were two people in front of him.

Ultimately, no matter who he gave it to, he would offend the other.

Xiao Fan considered for a moment, then his gaze finally fell on Chu Changge.

Compared to Chu Hao, he knew Chu Changge better, as they had met a few times.

Giving it to him would give him a higher chance of survival.

“Divine Son Chu, I hope you keep your word!” Xiao Fan shouted, then threw the nine-leaf sword grass over.

Chu Hao was quick-eyed and quick-handed, wanting to snatch it.

But no matter how fast he was, he wasn’t as fast as Chu Changge.

The nine-leaf sword grass ultimately fell into his hands.

【Ding! Host has completed Choice One, receiving the reward: Nine Heavens Divine Thunder!】

【Does Host choose to undergo Fusion with Nine Heavens Divine Thunder?】

Chu Changge was not in a hurry; he chose ‘No’!

Immediately after, he put away the nine-leaf sword grass and, without another word, attacked Xiao Fan.

“Divine Son Chu, what is the meaning of this! You’re not keeping your word!”

Xiao Fan was furious; he had been blind and trusted the wrong person.

Chu Changge smiled faintly, “Boy, you’ve misunderstood! Although This Divine Son always keeps his word, I occasionally tell a little lie!”

“You seized This Divine Son’s Opportunity and caused This Divine Son to waste so much time; naturally, I must settle this small interest with you!”

Chu Changge struck down with a palm, and just as he was about to obliterate Xiao Fan with a single strike.

The Yaochi True Immortal, who should have been in a deep sleep, erupted once again.

“Xiao Fanzi, go!!!”

An extreme power not only blocked Chu Changge’s attack but also had enough residual strength to tear through space, taking Xiao Fan with her into it, and leaving the place.
