Preparation
"Old Crane is a martial artist at the peak of the Yin-Yang Realm. Although his Sea of Consciousness has been destroyed, if you want him to be obedient to you, you will need at least 100,000 supreme grade essence crystals."
Xun Jianwen felt a little wronged.
With his ability, he could only control late-stage Yin Yang Realm martial artists at most.
If one were to control a martial artist at the peak of the Yin-Yang Realm, even if that martial artist's Sea of Consciousness was destroyed, it would still require 100,000 transcendent-grade essence crystals.
"Let's do this for now. When I have the remaining 80,000 Origin Crystals, you can go and control Old He."
At this point, Ning Yue could only compromise.
Since he had already used up twenty thousand transcendent-grade essence crystals, if he were to stop like this, he would inevitably suffer a loss.
Moreover, Old Crane's status in the imperial family should be quite high, so he should be able to obtain some useful information from him.
Puchi!
However, what Xun Jianwen said next caused Ning Yue to vomit a mouthful of blood.
"You must find eighty thousand supreme grade Origin Crystals within half an hour. Otherwise, you'll need to double the amount of Origin Crystals you'll need to control Old He."
Xun Jianwen carefully extended two fingers and said, "Two hundred thousand supreme grade essence crystals."
"Come out, I promise I won't kill you."
Ning Yue flicked his wrist and tossed the storage ring into the air.
Whoosh!
In the next instant, Xun Jianwen flew out from the storage ring.
"What do you think I should do now? Where do you expect me to find 80,000 transcendent-grade Origin Crystals in half an hour?"
Ning Yue wished he could slap Xun Jianwen a few times.
Only he could think of finding eighty thousand transcendent-grade essence crystals in half an hour.
Seeing that Ning Yue was enraged, Xun Jianwen stood still, not daring to breathe loudly.
Xun Jianwen was not a fool. If he spoke now, he would definitely be scolded by Ning Yue, so he might as well play dumb.
"Leng Mian, how many Transcendent Grade Essence Crystals are there in the Snow Domain Pavilion?"
After thinking for a while, Ning Yue said to Leng Mian, "Don't contact Qing Wu and the others for now. Get me all the supreme Yuan Crystals from the Snow Pavilion. I need them urgently."
"That …"
Hearing Ning Yue's words, Xun Jianwen awkwardly scratched his head and said, "When we took over Xue Yu Pavilion, we emptied it of all its resources. Right now, Xue Yu Pavilion is just an empty shell. We can't even find a single supreme Yuan crystal."
"F * ck!"
Ning Yue couldn't help but swear.
This was too f * cking unfortunate. Was Elder He born in the year of the mouse?
He actually emptied Snow Domain Pavilion's resources!
"Do you have any supreme Origin crystals on you? If you do, take them out."
Ning Yue placed his hopes on Leng Mian and the others.
But unfortunately, Leng Mian, the Alchemist Hall Master, and the others added up, they only managed to gather less than a thousand transcendent-grade essence crystals.
This made Ning Yue suspect that they were hiding something.
One had to know that Gui Er from the Corpse Sect's Ghost Palace had 800,000 transcendent-grade essence crystals on him. Why did these Yin-Yang Realm martial artists only have a few hundred transcendent-grade essence crystals?
If the Alchemist Hall Master and the others knew what Ning Yue was thinking, they would probably vomit blood.
The reason why Gui Er had so many transcendent-grade essence crystals was completely because of his dogsh * t luck. He obtained them from an ancient cave abode.
An ordinary martial artist would be lucky to have 10,000 transcendent-grade essence crystals, let alone 800,000.
"Ning Yue, why don't we make a trip to the Assassination Pavilion? There should be a lot of transcendent-grade essence crystals there. " Leng Mian hesitated and said, "We can go there in the name of investigating the Third Prince's murder. It'll be a piece of cake to extort 100,000 transcendent-grade essence crystals."
"Let's go there a few times. With our current strength and condition, I don't think we can even enter the forbidden area of the Assassination Pavilion."
Ning Yue directly rejected Leng Mian and said, "Let's go to Danwu College."
There was no way they could get 80,000 transcendent-grade essence crystals in half an hour. Instead of waiting here, they might as well return to Danwu College first.
Ning Yue estimated that as long as he could find the energy equivalent to 80,000 transcendent-grade essence crystals, he should be able to help Xun Jianwen control Old Crane.
In fact, Ning Yue chose to return to Danwu College this time out of many considerations.
First, he wanted to see Lu Wei and tell her that he had already rescued her parents and that there was no need to come to Snow Domain Pavilion before tomorrow night.
Second, he wanted to see the first dean of Danwu College, Wei Zongtian!
Ning Yue was also curious about what exactly was inside the golden box he obtained from Frost Manor.
The current Ning Yue's strength had improved significantly compared to the first time he met Wei Zongtian.
With his strength, Ning Yue naturally wouldn't be afraid of Wei Zongtian snatching the golden box away.
Moreover, the one Wei Zongtian left in Danwu College's Danwu Pool was only a phantom image and not a physical body …
Swish!
Although he was going to Danwu College, Ning Yue didn't leave Snow Domain Pavilion immediately. Instead, he disguised himself as Old Crane and took a stroll outside the capital.
Ning Yue also had Leng Mian spread the news that Old Crane left Snow Domain Pavilion because of Black Whirlwind's death.
Ning Yue wanted to create a false impression that Old Crane left Snow Domain Pavilion to investigate Black Whirlwind's death!
In any case, those who knew that Old Crane was captured were all in the storage ring. They wouldn't dare to say anything even if they were given eight guts.
Ning Yue didn't dare to stay outside the capital for too long. After all, he only had half an hour left. Once half an hour passed, he would need to spend 200,000 transcendent-grade essence crystals to control Old Crane.
"I must go there tomorrow!"
While Ning Yue was rushing to Danwu College.
Danwu College's Sacred Institute, Dongfang Zhi's room.
A young woman's face showed a strong determination. "My parents are in Snow Domain Pavilion. If I don't go there, I won't be able to feel at ease for the rest of my life."
"Don't mess around."
Dongfang Zhi was having a headache.
He knew that there were many Yin-Yang realm martial artists among the mysterious forces that occupied Snow Domain Pavilion. There were no less than ten.
There was even a pinnacle Yin-Yang realm martial artist among them.
Not to mention Lu Wei, even if he went there personally, he wouldn't be able to rescue Lu Wei's parents.
"Ning Yue sent you here because he trusts me. Before Ning Yue returns, you better stay in the room obediently. Don't go anywhere," Dongfang Zhi said solemnly.
Dongfang Zhi said solemnly, "As for the matter of your parents, I'll go discuss it with the higher-ups of the Dan Wu Academy to see if there's a better solution."
Although Dongfang Zhi said so, he knew very well that this matter was most likely going to fall through.
There were many factions in Danwu College, and their interests were tangled and complicated.
It was conceivable that they wouldn't go against the mysterious forces of Snow Domain Pavilion just for Lu Wei.
In short, the loss outweighed the gain.
Given Lu Wei's talent and strength, it wasn't worth it for them to do that.
"Dean Dongfang, I can make my own decisions."
These days, Lu Wei more or less heard that the mysterious forces that occupied Snow Domain Pavilion were very powerful.
Ning Yue was a core disciple of Danwu College's Sacred Institute, and his future achievements were destined to be great. She didn't want Ning Yue to get involved.
