"I'll say it again. If something happens to me, I'll kill you first as a scapegoat!" Miao Yi let out a cold snort and heaved a sigh of relief. He didn't expect to be discovered forever. It was fine as long as he didn't get discovered in the short term.
As he roasted the food in his hands, he pondered for a moment before asking again, "Do you have any good ideas to help me hunt?"
Pi Junzi glanced at Charcoal, who was eating while standing, lying down, and eating while tilting his head. It was his first time seeing such a strange dragon steed. He couldn't help but ask, "May I ask what is the Great Immortal's cultivation base like?"
Miao Yi glanced at him and slightly raised his brows, "No matter how low his cultivation base is, it's still more than enough to kill you. I advise you not to have any devious ideas."
Pi Junzi silently cursed. A cultivator riding a dragon steed, no matter how high his cultivation base was, he would at most be a Blue Lotus cultivator. He sure had some guts, daring to come to the Sea of Constellations to hunt with such a low cultivation base. He just had to be so unlucky as to run into him.
His two bound hands hurriedly waved, and said in fear and trepidation, "This humble one didn't mean it that way. I just wanted to ask the Great Immortal how much do you wish to hunt, and if there's a bottom line?"
Miao Yi replied, "Naturally the more the better!"
The more the better? Pi Junzi smiled bitterly, "I'll let the Great Immortal know that there are seventy-two Fort Masters under Commander Yuan, and each of them has a cultivation base of Second Grade. They're spread out like a net, unlike this humble one who is alone because of Madame Wu Hua. If I intrude into someone else's territory and kill one, it will definitely alert the others. This humble one just doesn't want the Great Immortal to encounter trouble. "
Miao Yi scoffed, "Are you thinking for me, or for the other Yao cultivators?"
Pi Junzi thought to himself, 'I'm not thinking for you, I'm thinking for myself. If you f * cking encounter trouble, you might want to kill me first as a scapegoat. How can I not be careful?'
Ignoring the ridicule in the other's tone, he earnestly advised, "Great Immortal, this humble one really isn't lying. If you kill one and leave, it'll be easy. Otherwise, you'll definitely attract everyone's pursuit!"
For the sake of his own life, in order to make the other party believe his words, he added another sentence of truth, "Great Immortal, if you encounter trouble, you want to kill this little one to be your scapegoat. So this little one does not wish for Great Immortal to encounter trouble. This little one still wants to live."
Miao Yi was speechless. The other party's words made some sense. If hunting in the Sea of Constellations was really that easy, who knew how many cultivators would come here. He pondered for a moment before saying, "I came all the way here. How can I return empty-handed? Think again. Is there any way for me to get a little more in one go?"
"One-time?" Pi Junzi smiled bitterly and said, "Two months later, during the annual 'Bejeweled Nectar Conclave', all seventy-two Fort Masters will gather …"
He didn't finish his sentence, but what he was implying was that when the time came, all seventy-two Blue Lotus Yao cultivators would gather together. There would be a lot of people at that time, but would they have the ability to deal with so many people at once? Don't be too greedy, you can't swallow it!
Miao Yi asked curiously, "What is the Bejeweled Nectar Conclave?"
Pi Junzi explained, "Commander Yuan loves fine wine, so the seventy-two Fort Masters will brew a batch of fine wine every year. Everyone will gather together to taste it, and the wine that everyone agrees is the best will be presented to Commander Yuan. Commander Yuan has never been stingy with his rewards when he obtains the fine wine, because he loves wine. The process of the seventy-two Fort Masters tasting the fine wine was named the 'Bejeweled Nectar Conclave'. Actually, it was to cater to Commander Yuan's preferences. "
"So that's how it is, a bunch of bootlickers …" Miao Yi nodded thoughtfully, his gaze flickering.
Seventy-two Fort Masters, that was seventy-two Blue Lotus Yao cultivators. If he killed all seventy-two of them, that would be seventy-two First Grade Yao Cores.
Just thinking about it made his heart palpitate. If he could obtain such a harvest, even if he couldn't continue to be a Cave Master after he returned, it would still be enough for him to use for many years. But the biggest problem was that it was a little impossible to get rid of all seventy-two Blue Lotus Fort Masters in one go. If he did it individually, he would alert the enemy. When that time came, the gains wouldn't make up for the losses.
With the experience of the little ones getting rid of Madame Wu Hua, Miao Yi was rather confident about the little ones.
But to use the little ones, he would have to launch a sneak attack. Otherwise, the little ones would all be dead.
It wasn't quite possible to ambush all seventy-two people at the same time! Unless he had a way to get close to them and make them lower their guard, only then would he have a chance of succeeding. Otherwise, there was no hope at all.
When the meat was done roasting, Miao Yi cut it in half and tossed it to Pi Junzi.
Pi Junzi smiled stiffly and thanked him, then hugged the meat and began to chew on it.
Miao Yi held the Octopus Spirit's meat and hesitated for a while. Just as he was about to eat it, he couldn't help but think of that beautiful woman. He actually wanted to eat her?
He slowly tried to take a bite, chewing twice, and his eyes brightened. The meat was very fragrant, and also very chewy. The taste was pretty good.
Not only that, once he swallowed it, he quickly felt a warm current spreading through his limbs and bones. This Yao Spirit's meat, which had cultivated for many years and absorbed an unknown amount of heaven and earth essence, was indeed extraordinary. It wasn't something ordinary poultry could compare to. No wonder Charcoal and the little ones liked it so much.
After hugging the roasted meat and silently chewing on it for a while, Miao Yi suddenly raised his head and asked, "Do you have a way to help me sneak into the Bejeweled Nectar Conclave?"
"Ah …." Pi Junzi, who was eating, suddenly raised his head and cried out involuntarily, "Great Immortal, you really want to go? Great Immortal must think carefully. The cultivation of the seventy-two Fort Masters is equivalent to a Blue Lotus cultivator. Even if you sneak in, it will be very difficult to find a chance to make a move! "
"Let's see if there's a chance to sneak in first. If we don't go in and take a look, how will we know if there's a chance? You only need to tell me if you have a way to help me sneak in. "
"This …." Pi Junzi blankly pondered for a while, then shook his head and said, "Madame Wu Hua occasionally goes to join in the fun. She brought me there a few times. Looking at the situation at that time, it's not very possible for an outsider to sneak in without permission."
Miao Yi asked, "Then how do I get permission to enter?"
"Unless an acquaintance brings Great Immortal in, or if Great Immortal has enough strength and background to make them welcome you. Although Madame Wu Hua didn't offer fine wine to participate, she has the background of Jade Stream Manor and is acquainted with Commander Yuan. That's why she can join in the fun. Otherwise, there's no way to enter."
"Jade Stream Manor …" Miao Yi was taken aback. Something suddenly flashed through his mind. With a flip of his palm, a sparkling and translucent crystal token appeared in his palm. The word 'Jade' carved on it was clearly visible to the eye. He immediately threw it to Pi Junzi and asked, "Help me see if this token has anything to do with Jade Stream Manor."
Pi Junzi took it in his hand and didn't need to look at it for long. He said in surprise, "This is Madame Wu Hua's token. It is indeed from Jade Stream Manor …"
He quickly understood that this token must have been obtained by someone who killed Madame Wu Hua.
Miao Yi spread his fingers and sucked the token back into his hand. He shook it and asked, "With this token, can I sneak into the Bejeweled Nectar Conclave?"
