Everyone had always thought that the people in the foundation were righteous and righteous. They believed that they had no flaws in their own morals.
But they were wrong. The people in the foundation were also people, and no one was without flaws. Zhi Wei's pretentiousness and Li Xianyi's unintentional use of his strength to cheat his disciple because he wanted to save face were things that the individual cultivators did not know. In fact, everyone had flaws, and the foundation's philosophy would not change just because everyone had flaws.
Can't I pick my nose when I'm the Savior? In any case, Lü Shu did not believe that a savior would not dig his nose …
"Old Master, have you seen Xiaoyu?" Lü Shu asked in a low voice.
Li Xianyi shook his head. "This ruin is too big. Even if I can fly, I haven't been able to explore the whole ruin in so many days. Moreover, Xiaoyu must be on the move. We might have missed each other. You don't have to worry too much about her. I think Xiaoyu is lucky. She'll be fine."
"Okay." Lü Shu thought to himself that apart from Old Master, no one else in this ruin could defeat Xiaoyu in a one-on-one fight.
He was not worried about Xiaoyu, but he was missing her. For the past two days, Lü Shu had wanted to check the income records to see if he could see Xiaoyu's negative emotions. However, now that more than a hundred rogue cultivators were spamming his screen, he could not find Xiaoyu's negative emotions …
"Have you seen Li Yixiao?" Old Master suddenly asked.
Lü Shu was stunned. "No, why are you looking for him, Old Master?"
Old Master frowned. "I heard that he's running around with more than a thousand gargoyles. That's why I'm looking for him. Have you really not seen him?"
Seeing that the old man was frantically looking for Li Yixiao and clearly wanted to beat her up, Lv Shu expressed that he had not seen Li Yixiao since entering the ruins.
At the same time, Lv Shu was mourning for Li Yixiao in his heart. The old man had found another reason to beat him up. Although it was difficult for them to meet each other in the ruins, there would come a day when he would leave the ruins …
"No, no." Lü Shu hurriedly shook his head. "I'm not in the same league as Li Yixiao. I've been here since last night, watching them dig out the broken artifacts."
A rogue cultivator suddenly muttered in Spanish, "Yeah, we can't dig anything out, but we still have to dig …"
Li Xianyi looked at Lv Shu suspiciously. He knows Spanish!
What's the meaning of this? You can't dig anything out, so why are you still digging? Li Xianyi knew that Lü Shu would not do anything without benefits. If there were no benefits, would Lü Shu do something like this? Of course not!
"Is there anything down there?" Li Xianyi asked.
Lü Shu was stunned for a moment. "No, it's just a broken magic artifact."
However, at that moment, there was a loud boom. A two-meter-wide black hole appeared in the pit where the rogue cultivators were. All the rogue cultivators were stunned. What was going on?
The more courageous ones leaned against the entrance of the cave and looked inside, while the timid ones climbed to the ground and began to look. Everyone looked at Lv Shu in shock. Could it be that he had sensed that there was something down there? Was he lying to them?!
Li Xianyi also looked at Lü Shu with a doubtful expression. How could he say there was nothing?!
Lü Shu: "…"
He couldn't explain it!
He really didn't know there was something down there. He was purely earning negative sentiment points!
But no matter what, it was a good thing that there was something …
Lü Shu explained for a long time before the old master reluctantly believed that it was really a misunderstanding …
"Should I go down and take a look?" Lü Shu asked the old master cautiously. If there was any treasure, he would put it in the Seal of Mountains and Rivers first …
Li Xianyi said angrily, "You're really bold. Don't worry, I won't snatch it from you. This is your doing, so it naturally belongs to you."
If it was someone else's, he would definitely snatch it. However, Li Xianyi had long regarded Lü Shu as a junior. The stronger Lü Shu and Xiaoyu were, the happier he would be.
This in itself was a relationship that transcended profit. Li Xianyi had lived for nearly a hundred years. His friends, parents, and master had all left him. It was rare for him to reunite with his family, so he especially cherished it.
The rogue cultivators' initial shock turned into joy. After all, anything strange in the ruins could be related to heavenly treasures. However, the joy immediately turned into fear. Who knew if there was any danger down there? With their mediocre skills, they might end up as cannon fodder.
They were worried that Lü Shu would let them go down first to explore!
There were dangers everywhere in the ruins. If they really went to explore first, even if they found something, it would definitely not fall into their hands. Instead, it was very likely that they would die.
However, when the time came, Lü Shu suddenly said, "All of you, come up. I'm afraid it's not something you can explore."
Earning negative sentiment points was one thing, but Lü Shu really could not bring himself to sacrifice so many innocent lives. Li Xianyi said calmly, "You can wait up here, or you can choose to stay or leave."
Lü Shu felt his heart ache. He was letting them go just like that? Actually, they could have stayed and dug somewhere else!
In fact, this place itself was very strange. There were so many broken ritual implements and human corpses buried here. No matter how one thought about it, it was not an ordinary place. However, whether it was Lv Shu or the rogue cultivators, no one thought too deeply about it. As a result, such a big problem was created.
Li Xianyi led the way down the black hole. Inside the black hole was a stone staircase that led to an unknown depth. The old man frowned. It was no wonder the ruins were so strange. There were only low-level creatures like gargoyles on the ground, but there was no place where the array core could be. Looking down from the sky, there was nothing unusual about the black stone.
So the problem was underground!
In fact, were there really only those visible dangers in the ruins? Not necessarily. There was another layer of invisible danger. What if the array core could never be found?
If they were never able to find the array core, even an A-class warrior would most likely die in this ruin where there was no food at all. Everyone here would be exhausted to death. After all, no one would be able to carry enough food for a lifetime.
And the problem was, so what if they had enough? Wasn't the purpose of entering the ruins so that they could get stronger and enjoy the prosperous world outside?
Even if Lü Shu stayed here for the rest of his life and devoured all the gargoyles, so what? Therefore, not being able to find the array core was actually a very scary thing. No one was willing to grow old and die here until their lifespan was exhausted.
Li Xianyi glanced at Lü Shu. He felt that this guy might have accidentally found a clue to the array core. What kind of bullsh * t luck was this?!
