Even though Luo Qingfeng was extremely shrewd and had always pretended to be calm, after hearing Zheng Yongshou's words, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. His eyes flashed as he said in a deep voice, "Tell me the details!"
"Yes! Master! " Zheng Yongshou said respectfully, "This time, disciple came out to supervise this matter. Originally, disciple wanted to order Martial Nephew Wang Boshan to give up on worldly means and directly seize the island by force. After all, this matter has been dragged on for so long … However, just as we began to plan this matter, things suddenly took a turn for the better."
"Oh? What turn for the better? "Luo Qingfeng asked faintly.
"The owner of Peach Blossom Island … Oh, Qingyun Island, disciple will report this matter immediately." Zheng Yongshou said calmly, "The worldly family that originally owned the island suddenly transferred the ownership of the island to a young man. It was he who changed the name of the island to Peach Blossom Island."
"Go on," Luo Qingfeng said.
"His attitude was different from that of the previous Family Liu. This young man was not so obsessed with the ownership of Peach Blossom Island." Zheng Yongshou said, "Martial Nephew Boshan has made some small achievements in the worldly business over the years, so disciple decided to take out a sum of money that exceeded the value of Peach Blossom Island to buy it from this young man. When we raised the price to 4.5 billion USD, he finally couldn't resist the temptation and agreed to sell the island!"
"Great!" Luo Qingfeng's eyes showed a trace of excitement.
As for the 4.5 billion USD mentioned by Zheng Yongshou, he didn't care at all. Worldly wealth was no different from floating clouds to him. Not to mention 4.5 billion, even 45 billion USD was no different from waste paper in his eyes if he couldn't exchange it for cultivation resources.
A top-grade cultivation resource like Peach Blossom Island could directly increase the overall strength of the entire Sect. How could it be exchanged for money?
Zheng Yongshou continued respectfully, "Master, disciple has already completed the transfer of ownership of the island with Martial Nephew Boshan before returning to the Sect. Now, Peach Blossom Island belongs to our Star Group in the worldly world. In other words, the island with the natural formation is already our Star Picking Sect's!"
"Very good!" Luo Qingfeng said happily, "Yongshou, you've done a good job! Speak! What reward do you want? Master will definitely satisfy you! "
Zheng Yongshou hurriedly said, "Master, it's this disciple's honor to be able to share Master's burdens. How would I dare to ask for any reward for such a small contribution?"
"It's not my style to not reward people for their contributions!" Luo Qingfeng waved his hand and said, "Say it boldly. As long as it's a resource that the Sect can provide, I can reward it to you!"
Zheng Yongshou said respectfully, "Disciple thanks Master first! However, it is already a great blessing for me to be able to cultivate in the sect all these years. I really don't dare to ask for any reward. If Master agrees, this disciple would like to … learn array dao from Master. Master's array dao level is so high that this disciple can only look up to it. "
Luo Qingfeng couldn't help but laugh heartily. He knew that his disciple was obsessed with the Dao of Arrays, and the Dao of Arrays was something that Luo Qingfeng was quite proud of. Zheng Yongshou's words had scratched his itch, making him feel very happy.
"It's not difficult at all!" Luo Qingfeng said, "In the future, I will teach you all I know about array dao. Our Sect also needs a master of array dao, so that I won't have to do anything about array dao in person!"
"Thank you, Master!" Zheng Yongshou said with an overjoyed expression. Then he hesitated for a moment and said, "Master, this disciple has a presumptuous request!"
"Say it!" Luo Qingfeng was in a good mood at this time, so he raised his hand and said indifferently.
"Yes!" Zheng Yongshou bowed slightly and said, "This matter can be so smooth because of Martial Nephew Boshan's efforts. This disciple earnestly asks Master to reward him with some cultivation resources. After all, it's not easy for him to make a living in the secular world. Moreover, the cultivation environment in the secular world is very bad. With some cultivation resources, he can also improve his cultivation and self-protection ability, so that he can better serve the Sect. "
"No problem!" Luo Qingfeng said, "Although Wang Boshan is a little mischievous, he can make the best use of his talent in the secular world! Originally, he has made such a great contribution, so it's not a problem for him to ask to return to the Sect. Since he wants to stay in the secular world, I will reward him with some cultivation resources, and by the way … I will personally guide him, so that his cultivation can be improved a little! "
"This disciple thanks Master on behalf of Martial Nephew Boshan!" Zheng Yongshou said hurriedly. Then he opened his eyes wide and asked, "Master, you mean … you want to go there in person?"
Luo Qingfeng laughed and said, "If I don't go … can you activate that natural array?"
Zheng Yongshou showed a trace of shame and said with his head bowed, "This disciple's level of array dao is low. In the face of that level of natural array, it's beyond my power …"
"So! This matter can only be done by me! "Luo Qingfeng said," It just so happens that I have been staying in the Sect for the past few years. It's time to go out and get some fresh air! Yongshou, accompany me on this trip. First, you can show me the way, and second, you can follow me to learn more about array dao. Activating such a natural array is a great learning opportunity! "
"Yes! Thank you, Master! "Zheng Yongshou said excitedly.
He had paved the way so that Luo Qingfeng would take the initiative to take him along.
Although in theory he must accompany Luo Qingfeng and lead the way for Luo Qingfeng, it did not exclude the possibility that Luo Qingfeng would ask about the location and go by himself. After all, Gold Core stage cultivators could fly on their swords, so it was more convenient for them to go alone.
Now that Luo Qingfeng had taken the initiative to take him along, his purpose had been achieved.
Zheng Yongshou said, "Master, after this disciple and Martial Nephew Boshan took over the Peach Blossom Island, we dismissed all the people on the island. Now only Martial Nephew Boshan stayed on the island, waiting for Master's arrival."
"Good! You did a good job. "Luo Qingfeng said," Those ordinary people staying on the island are in the way, so it's better to dismiss them. In the future, when the island needs to be rebuilt, we can recruit more people. The most important thing now is to activate the array. "
Luo Qingfeng's idea coincided with Xia Ruofei's. Unfortunately, his idea could never be realized, because Xia Ruofei had already activated the Taixu Mystical Clear Array one step ahead of him.
"Yes! Master! " Zheng Yongshou responded, and then continued, "This disciple took Martial Nephew Boshan to carefully explore the Peach Blossom Island, and found something …"
"Oh?" Luo Qingfeng asked with interest, "Could it be that you can see through such a large array?"
"That's not it …" Zheng Yongshou quickly said, "It's just that this disciple still found some clues and wanted to report it to Master."
"Oh? Then tell me about it. "Luo Qingfeng also became interested and said with a smile.
"Yes!" Zheng Yongshou said. He secretly took a deep breath, and according to the words Xia Ruofei taught him, he said, "This disciple found that the array on the Peach Blossom Island is not just a natural array. I didn't investigate it carefully before, but after handing over the island, this disciple walked around the entire island and found many traces left by cultivators, but they were very old. This disciple speculated that there were ancient cultivators on this island. Maybe it was because of the natural array on the island that attracted ancient cultivators, and they successfully activated the array. But with the passage of time, no one maintained the array, and it lost its effect. Only the naturally formed part of the array can still be seen. "
Luo Qingfeng's eyes shot two rays of light, and said, "In that case, it makes a bit of sense! If ancient cultivators once lived on the island, and there are still traces of the artificially activated array, then there are more clues left for us. In this way, the difficulty of activating this natural array will be greatly reduced! "
The more Luo Qingfeng spoke, the more excited he became. He then asked, "Yongshou, besides these, what else did you find?"
Zheng Yongshou bowed his head and said, "Master, disciple discovered that spiritual energy had gathered in a place that was suspected to have been left behind by an ancient cultivator. After digging, I found this item at a depth of about three feet …"
After saying that, Zheng Yongshou took out the small box prepared by Xia Ruofei and threw the last stun grenade.
Zheng Yongshou handed the small box to Luo Qingfeng with both hands and said, "Master, this disciple is stupid and doesn't know what this thing is. But this thing is rich in spiritual qi, and I can tell at a glance that it is not an ordinary thing. So, this disciple didn't dare to hide it and will immediately bring it back to the Sect for Master to deal with."
Luo Qingfeng nodded and opened the box.
His eyes suddenly opened, and an inexplicable look of surprise appeared on his face. Inside the box was a spiritual crystal, exuding rich spiritual qi.
Luo Qingfeng held the spiritual crystal in his hand and felt the spiritual qi in it. He found that most of the spiritual qi contained in this spiritual crystal had been consumed. But for the current cultivation world on Earth, this was still a rare cultivation treasure.
"This thing … you found it on that island?" Luo Qingfeng asked in disbelief.
"Yes, Master!" Zheng Yongshou said, "There are many similar ancient cultivator ruins on the island, and there are many places where spiritual qi is concentrated. But this disciple knew that this was a serious matter, so I didn't continue to explore it. I immediately rushed back to the Sect to ask Master to make a decision! Martial Nephew Boshan will guard Peach Blossom Island well. There are almost no cultivators there, and ordinary people in the secular world can't threaten the safety of the island. "
"You did a good job!" Luo Qingfeng said with satisfaction, "What's particularly commendable is that, in the face of such a precious cultivation treasure with rich spiritual qi, you can only think of the Sect without the slightest greed. Master is very pleased!"
In fact, this was a spiritual crystal that Xia Ruofei had prepared in advance. He had specially chosen a spiritual crystal that he had used in his previous cultivation. He had been using this spiritual crystal for a long time. Later, when he obtained a better spiritual crystal, he switched to using a spiritual crystal. Therefore, he had absorbed a lot of the spiritual qi in the spiritual crystal.
Luo Qingfeng not only did not doubt it, but was even more convinced.
The reason was very simple. After so many years, the formation on Peach Blossom Island had lost its ability to gather spiritual qi, and the spiritual qi in the spiritual crystal had gradually dissipated. This was in line with the actual situation. If it was a spiritual crystal full of spiritual qi, it would have aroused Luo Qingfeng's doubts.
Luo Qingfeng was very satisfied with Zheng Yongshou as his disciple. Although he wanted to reward Zheng Yongshou with this spiritual crystal, it was too precious. He hesitated again and again, but in the end, he was not willing to give it to Zheng Yongshou.
Luo Qingfeng said in his heart, "Let's talk about it after we reach Peach Blossom Island! If we can find a few more spiritual crystals like this, it's okay to reward Yongshou with one. "
Thinking of this, Luo Qingfeng felt at ease and carefully put away the spiritual crystal.
Zheng Yongshou had been quietly observing Luo Qingfeng's expression. Knowing that Luo Qingfeng had put away the spiritual crystal, he felt more at ease. At the same time, his admiration for his master, Xia Ruofei, increased.
Xia Ruofei had specially arranged for Zheng Yongshou to fabricate information about the ancient cultivator's ruins and report it to Luo Qingfeng. The purpose was to make Peach Blossom Island more attractive to Luo Qingfeng, so that he could not wait to go there.
At the same time, not only was there a natural formation on Peach Blossom Island, but there were also ancient cultivator's ruins, which made it easier to activate the formation. In addition, there might be more spiritual crystals. With so many factors combined, according to Luo Qingfeng's character, it was even more impossible for him to leak the information to others.
Of course, this move had an additional effect, which was to ensure that Luo Qingfeng's loyalty to Zheng Yongshou would no longer be doubted. The spiritual crystal was such a precious cultivation resource. Even if he couldn't name it, he could still sense the rich spiritual energy inside it, right? He had given it to the Sect without hesitation. If such a disciple was not loyal, who else could be trusted?
Sure enough, Luo Qingfeng looked at Zheng Yongshou with an even more amiable gaze. He said warmly, "Yongshou, you've worked hard this time! But you can't rest for the time being. After all, the natural formation of Peach Blossom Island is related to the rise of the Sect, so I've decided to go to Peach Blossom Island today! "
Zheng Yongshou was overjoyed and quickly said, "Master, this disciple didn't work hard! It's this disciple's honor to be able to follow Master and serve him! "
Then, Zheng Yongshou pretended to be concerned and asked, "Master, who do you want to take with you on this trip? This disciple will inform them to get ready. "
Luo Qingfeng sternly said, "This time, we're going in secret. You can't reveal our whereabouts to anyone! The natural formation of Peach Blossom Island is of great importance. Before the formation is successfully activated and the core of the formation is controlled, any information about Peach Blossom Island is top secret. You can't leak the slightest bit. Otherwise, it is likely to attract the covetous eyes of other Sects. Do you understand? "
Zheng Yongshou was overjoyed. He quickly bowed his head and said, "Yes! This disciple will remember! "
Luo Qingfeng nodded with satisfaction and said, "Well, you wait here for a while. I'll prepare something. We'll set off immediately!"
Luo Qingfeng didn't doubt Zheng Yongshou. He was worried that Zheng Yongshou would leak the news after he left his sight. He did this because he didn't want too many people to know that Zheng Yongshou had returned to the Sect. Secondly, he was very anxious. He would set off immediately after making some preparations. Naturally, it was most convenient for Zheng Yongshou to wait here.
"Yes! Master! "Zheng Yongshou respectfully replied.
Luo Qingfeng got up and took out some formation flags, compasses, jade, and other tools from the cabinet. After thinking for a while, he also took out a few crystals. These crystals were similar to spirit crystals. They also contained spiritual energy and could be used by cultivators. However, the purity of the spiritual energy was not on the same level as spirit crystals. They could barely be regarded as a "low-quality" spirit crystal.
Luo Qingfeng waved his hand and all these things disappeared into thin air.
He glanced at the dumbfounded Zheng Yongshou and waved his hand at Zheng Yongshou, revealing a ring on his middle finger. He smiled and said, "This is a storage ring! I found it by chance when I was exploring the ruins. It can be said to be the most precious treasure of our Star Picking Sect! "
Luo Qingfeng's storage ring only had a space of about ten cubic meters. Compared with Xia Ruofei's vast Ring-Tu space, it was like the difference between a homeless person sleeping under a bridge and the world's richest man. However, in Luo Qingfeng's eyes, it was still an extremely precious treasure.
In fact, storage rings were related to the law of space, which had been passed down from ancient times. It was almost impossible for the cultivation world on Earth to make them, so they were very rare.
Many Gold Core stage cultivators didn't necessarily have storage rings, but Luo Qingfeng had one. Therefore, he had always been proud of it.
However, the space in this Storage Ring was not big. Usually, Luo Qingfeng would only store the most precious things in it and carry them with him. This time, he was going to go on a long journey, and it was related to activating the formation. Therefore, he put the books on formations, formation flags, and other things that he usually stored in the cabinet into the Storage Ring. As for the crystal stones, he was going to reward Wang Boshan.
If it had been before Zheng Yongshou took out the spirit crystals, Luo Qingfeng might have been a little reluctant. Now that he had the spirit crystals, his vision was much higher. It was only a few crystal stones containing Spiritual Qi. Wang Boshan had made such a great contribution this time, so he should reward him with something "good".
Zheng Yongshou stared at Luo Qingfeng's storage ring with wide eyes and exclaimed, "I didn't expect Master to have such a precious treasure!"
As he spoke, he secretly said in his heart, "This storage ring is really good! Humph! The more treasures there are, the better! It's best to take them all. Then they will all belong to Master... "
Luo Qingfeng was very satisfied with Zheng Yongshou's shocked expression. He smiled faintly and said, "Let's go!"
"Yes! Master! "Zheng Yongshou said respectfully.
Zheng Yongshou was about to ask Luo Qingfeng what kind of transportation method to go to Peach Blossom Island when Luo Qingfeng took the initiative to say, "By the way, I heard that Peach Blossom Island is thousands of miles away from here?"
Zheng Yongshou quickly said, "Yes! Master, Peach Blossom Island is located in the southern hemisphere. The four seasons there are opposite to ours. It is indeed very far away. Every time I go there, I take a plane. "
Luo Qingfeng frowned subconsciously, but the urgency of going to Peach Blossom Island prevailed. He thought for a moment and said, "In that case, this time we will also take that... plane! We need to get to Peach Blossom Island as soon as possible! "
