The wind and snow swept past him at high speed as Lu Sheng chased after the white cloud in front of him.
That cloud was a giant white wolf moving and leaping at high speed.
He passed by forests on both sides, and the ground rose and fell continuously. He did not know how many hills and mountains he had passed.
As time passed, Lu Sheng did not know how long he had been chasing. Finally, the white wolf in front of him landed lightly. Without a sound, like a real cloud, it landed on the edge of a large frozen lake.
Its huge body crouched by the lake like a mountain. Its huge blood-red eyes looked back in Lu Sheng's direction.
"What do you want by following me?" The giant wolf's voice was not loud, but it traveled far and accurately drilled into Lu Sheng's ears, as if someone was speaking beside his ear.
"What do I want?" Lu Sheng was stunned.
"I am the greatest White Wolf King, Gendi. Tell me your wish and the price of exchange. If you're willing, I can help you fulfill it," the giant white wolf said in a low voice, baffling to Lu Sheng. "Since you've chased after me, you should know my rules."
Lu Sheng looked at the white wolf. It gave him a strong sense of oppression. This giant wolf's strength was much stronger than all the opponents he had met before.
Judging from its words, it was likely that it often engaged in some kind of exchanging business and was quite famous.
He composed himself. "What can you give me?"
The White Wolf King arched its back and approached Lu Sheng with its huge head.
"Me? Wealth? Jewelry? Power? Or even the desire in your heart … "
Its huge head was only a few meters away from Lu Sheng, as if it could swallow him whole with one bite.
"I don't want any of that." Lu Sheng thought for a moment, then suddenly said, "I want strength. Strength!"
The other party did not seem to have seen through his identity. His current Yin Extreme Mode was extremely good at concealing his aura, and the strength he displayed was worlds apart from his actual transformation.
"Oh?" The White Wolf King looked at him carefully. "Why do you want strength?"
Lu Sheng smiled. "Do I need a reason in this chaotic world?"
"That's true." The White Wolf King nodded. "However, your strength is already not bad. If you want to exchange for more power, the corresponding price you have to pay will also be greater."
"As long as you can afford it, the price doesn't matter. I can afford it," Lu Sheng said calmly.
He was simply spouting nonsense. He was just going along with the white wolf's words. Strength? If the other party could really help him, it would be a pleasant surprise. If not, it didn't matter. He was just experimenting with his martial arts when he saw such a big white wolf passing by. He was excited to see the prey and followed it.
The White Wolf King was also a little puzzled. As the Wandering Heart Society's Master, many humans, ghosts, and demons came to him all the time, seeking to trade with him, obtain items, and even power. However, none of them were like this human in front of him, who did not fear him at all.
It was only a coincidence that it came here.
After the mysterious man said those words to him, he disappeared mysteriously.
But he did not believe anything that man said. Moreover, even if it was really the Shangyang Family's doing, there was nothing he could do now. The other party was one of the Nine Great Families of the Central Plains. Their strength was far beyond his imagination. Even if he sought revenge, he would only hurt them a little.
The White Wolf King was furious, but there was nothing he could do. Coincidentally, he had received an invitation from a good friend and found an opportunity to take revenge on the Shangyang Family. Thus, he left his clan and rushed toward the Northern Lands.
He did not expect to meet another human from the Northern Lands on his way. What was interesting about this human was that he could actually keep up with his speed.
"Once, a clan of one-eyed people came to me to trade their loyalty for power. I gave it to them. Other clans also used all sorts of precious items in exchange for power. I agreed to develop their potential, "the White Wolf King said in a low voice. "I can give you power, but it depends on what you can offer in exchange." He did not know Lu Sheng, nor had he seen his portrait. His only worry in the Northern Lands was the hidden power of the Shangyang Family.
The other party had killed two of his Deputy Clan Masters. One could imagine how much power they had deployed here.
However, although he was wary of the Shangyang Family, he did not pay much attention to the small mortal faction, Crimson Whale Sect.
"Oh?"
Lu Sheng's interest was instantly piqued. The other party was actually like a big businessman among the Demon clans.
"I want power without any side effects. I can't let it affect my own mind. "He thought for a moment, then fished out something from his pocket." I'll give you this in exchange. "
"This is …" The White Wolf King suddenly narrowed his eyes and stared at the thing in Lu Sheng's hand. "A Divine Weapon shard? It seems to be a shard of the Gloomy Seal … "
What Lu Sheng took out was the dark yellow metal shard he had obtained from Officiator Bai Jiang. At that time, he had obtained dozens of units of Yin Qi from it.
But after studying it for a long time, he still could not use it. Now that he thought about it, he could give it a try.
"Gloomy Seal?" Lu Sheng made a mental note of it. His expression, however, was unhurried.
"How much power can I buy with this?"
The White Wolf King looked at the metal shard carefully.
"This shard is quite big. I can give you three choices."
"Oh?" Lu Sheng was surprised. "Please elaborate."
The White Wolf King lifted his head and exhaled softly. A huge cloud of white mist surrounded the two of them, like a barrier, blocking out all vision from the outside world.
"First, I can give you power directly, but that's borrowing it from my body. The advantage is that it's fast.
"Second, I can imbue you with demonic energy. Make you a half-demon. But it will affect your lifespan.
"Third, I can give you treasures, but it will take a lot of energy to digest and convert them into power."
The White Wolf King very considerately gave him three choices. All three had their advantages and disadvantages.
Lu Sheng thought for a moment. He had no use for this thing anyway. A Divine Weapon shard was not something the likes of Shangyang Family would lack. This was something that belonged to a Officiator of Ashoka Manor, and was probably meant to be bestowed to his subordinates. It would not be of a high level.
"I want treasures," he said after some thought.
"Elixirs that increase strength. I have those that strengthen the body and inner Qi. Which one do you want?" The White Wolf King asked.
Lu Sheng recalled the various medicinal herbs marked on the map. He took that as a comparison. "I want a Four Spirit Flower of high age."
"Sure." The White Wolf King tilted his head and shook out a palm-sized white box from the fur on his neck.
As if gripped tightly by an invisible hand, the box flew down steadily and floated slowly before Lu Sheng's eyes.
"A thirty-thousand-year Four Spirit Flower, corresponding to the Divine Weapon shard in your hand." The White Wolf King was honest in his business dealings. This had been the motto of Wandering Heart Society for many years.
As mysterious merchants among the demons, they never sold fakes, although their prices were high.
Lu Sheng took the box and opened it. Inside lay a small green flower with four petals. Its leaves and branches were translucent.
A faint mint fragrance wafted into his nose, as if it could seep into his heart.
"Thirty-thousand-year …" Lu Sheng's expression did not change, but he was pleasantly surprised.
One had to know that even the best herbs in the Northern Lands marked on the map given by Li Shunxi were not even half as effective as the Four Spirit Flower before them.
If this one was really thirty-thousand-year.
If handled properly, this Four Spirit Flower could offset dozens of units of his Yin Qi consumption. Perhaps he could upgrade his inner force cultivation again.
When he upgraded Light Void Skill this time, he forgot that he could use Yin-attribute inner Qi to offset the consumption of Yin Qi. However, the Yin-attribute Aquarius Qi was almost used up and was used to heal the internal injuries caused by the sudden upgrade.
But he could slowly use Yin-attribute inner Qi to upgrade low-level martial arts. It was just a matter of time.
"How about it?" The White Wolf King looked at Lu Sheng, waiting for his answer.
"Deal." Lu Sheng nodded and tossed the metal piece in his hand forward.
An invisible force caught the metal piece and flew it towards the White Wolf King.
"Then, the deal is done. Next time you need me, you can come to Frozen Sea Island to find me. " After saying this, the White Wolf King hid the metal piece in his fur and leaped. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the snowstorm like a huge cloud.
Lu Sheng did not chase after him. This time, he just quietly watched him leave. The gains from this trip were enough for him to go back and digest.
…
The clouds in the sky suddenly poured down.
On the vast ice field, a blurry and slender silhouette stood there quietly, looking up at the falling clouds.
"Whoosh …"
The White Wolf King slowly appeared from the clouds.
"Shangyang Family has gone too far. Ice Fox King, the Nine Great Families of the Central Plains are indeed strong, but that doesn't mean I have to swallow my anger," the White Wolf King said in a low voice.
The slender figure was silent.
The White Wolf King did not speak again. He just quietly waited for the other party's decision.
The Ice Fox King was the strongest demon in the Northern Region. There was no one who could compare.
If he, the White Wolf King, was the strongest in the Ice Sea Islands, then the one in front of him was recognized as the strongest in the entire Northern Lands, including the Demon Kings around him.
It was because of his existence that the Nine Great Families of the Central Plains could stop their endless plundering of the Northern Lands and Ice Sea.
After waiting for a long time.
"Is there any use … for you going?" the figure finally spoke.
"No." The White Wolf King revealed a cruel and bloodthirsty smile. "But I can still kill a few geniuses from the Shangyang Family."
"In the battle for the Scarlet Dragon Tribulation, even my princesses were heavily injured. There's no point in you fighting now," the figure said calmly.
The White Wolf King's smile disappeared. No one knew better than him how cruel and heartless the Ice Fox King could be. Even he himself couldn't bring himself to throw his children out there and let them kill each other. Then, they would compete with those ants like trash and weeds for the opportunity that they should have easily obtained.
"So?" He also calmed down.
"Go back," the figure said calmly.
Silence.
The White Wolf King suddenly felt a chill in his heart. To him, the two Deputy Clan Masters were just two of the stronger ones among the many vassal clans. He could just choose them later.
But from this matter, he found out the Ice Fox King's attitude.
He was high above. As long as the Demon Kings were not in trouble, or the situation changed drastically, he would not make a move. He would even stop him from making a move.
"I understand …" The White Wolf King was silent for a long time. Finally, he backed down. "You will regret it."
"No one can make me regret it," the Ice Fox King said calmly. "You don't understand."
The White Wolf King snorted coldly and turned to leave.
In the wind and snow, the figure still stood in the same place. He just quietly watched the giant white wolf leave, not saying a word.
