"Oh! Tree core! " The City Lord's eyes lit up. Without hesitation, he waved his hand and the storage ring fell into his hand.
Soon, he took out a palm-sized diamond-shaped tree core. The tree core emitted an extremely rich life force.
"Great! This is good stuff indeed! " The City Lord's eyes lit up when he felt the life force emitted from the tree core.
Without hesitation, he began to refine the energy in the tree core.
In just a few dozen breaths, the City Lord opened his eyes. His aura surged and his eyes were filled with ecstasy.
"Haha! The injury that has troubled me for decades is actually healed! "The City Lord looked at Zhao Yuande with gratitude." Thank you, thank you! I thank you on behalf of the City of Shame. "
In the storage ring that Zhao Yuande gave him, there were a total of 18 of those tree cores!
The life force in those tree cores was very strong. Each one of them was priceless.
With those tree cores, he wouldn't have to fight the Sky Saber Tribe with his hands tied. At the critical moment, he could exchange injury for injury and kill the other party's strong enemies.
The City Lord's eyes shone brightly. At that moment, he was already excited.
"Young friend, do you have any more of those tree cores? I can exchange them with treasures!" Seeing the excitement in the City Lord's eyes, Hei Cang couldn't help but have an idea. He looked at Zhao Yuande.
"This …" Zhao Yuande actually had many of those tree cores. However, he knew that wealth could move people's hearts. If he took out more tree cores, he was afraid that the other party would become greedy.
He had just met these people and was unfamiliar with them. He couldn't trust them at all.
"I actually have a few tree cores of that level. However, they are all life-saving items." Zhao Yuande looked troubled. "However, I do have some low-level tree cores. If senior needs them, I can give them to you. As for treasures, forget about it."
As Zhao Yuande spoke, he took out another storage ring. There were hundreds of ordinary tree cores in it. These were obtained from killing some ordinary Demonized Treants.
In fact, he had many of those tree cores. However, he wouldn't take them out before he figured out the other party's temperament.
"Everyone … You …" Hei Cang looked at the others.
For the remaining people to be able to reach this step, each and every one of them was a shrewd person. They had long felt the scruples in Zhao Yuande's heart.
"Our cultivation isn't high enough. We can't kill those Demonized Treants, so we don't have tree cores of that level. However, we do have some ordinary tree cores. We can give them to you and help you fight against the Heavenly Saber Tribe!" Samsara took out a storage ring and handed it to Hei Cang.
The others also nodded and took out their tree cores.
Hei Cang's face was filled with joy as he thanked everyone repeatedly.
"My little friends, please stay here for the night! If you are willing to go out and hunt the Heavenly Saber Race, you can tell Hei Cang and ask him to open the passage for you. If you are not willing to, you can cultivate here. The Metal Dao here is denser than the outside world. With your talents, it shouldn't be difficult to comprehend the Metal Dao! " The City Lord looked at everyone with satisfaction. In the end, however, his gaze fell upon Zhao Yuande, an inquisitive look in his eyes.
When Zhao Yuande saw the City Lord's gaze, he couldn't help but feel a sense of disgust.
They had contributed so many tree cores, but the City Lord didn't even say a word of thanks. It was as if it was natural for them to take out the tree cores.
He even felt a trace of suspicion in the City Lord's gaze, which made him feel even more uncomfortable.
"Thank you, City Lord." Although Zhao Yuande was unhappy, his face was still full of smiles.
"Everyone, follow me!" Hei Cang beckoned to everyone.
Looking at the backs of the people leaving, the City Lord's face revealed a smile.
"Little guys, you are really my lucky stars. You definitely have more tree cores on you. I wonder what method I can use to make you willingly hand them over?" The City Lord's voice was very low, but it was incomparably gloomy. "Don't tell me I have to use force? No … If I do that, it might cause others to criticize me. I can't hide the truth from everyone in this City of Shame … "
Zhao Yuande and the others followed behind Hei Cang and walked out of the great hall. They were quickly arranged to rest in another great hall.
Seeing Hei Cang leave, Zhao Yuande's face revealed a hint of gloominess.
"Brother Zhao … something's not right!" Samsara said, a grave expression on his face.
"Let's talk through telepathy!" Zhao Yuande sat down cross-legged. His soul enveloped the entire great hall. Using his soul, he said, "You guys have noticed it too! The City Lord and Hei Cang seem to be plotting something against us. "
"With their cultivation, they can completely suppress us. Why don't they use force?" Huo Lie frowned.
"That's the key to this matter!" Zhao Yuande said, "I'm guessing that the City Lord isn't the only powerful person in this city. There must be other experts who can compete with him."
"Yes, I think so too. We need to go out for a walk." Samsara nodded.
"Don't rush. Let's cultivate for a while and dispel some of the doubts in their hearts." Zhao Yuande said.
"Mm! That's good too. "
Everyone agreed.
They quickly entered a state of cultivation.
The Metal Dao here was indeed incomparably rich. They were all geniuses among geniuses.
Therefore, they quickly discovered that their comprehension of the Metal Dao was so fast that it left them speechless.
Zhao Yuande's Laceration Dao completed the second tempering in a short two hours. Then, he immediately entered the third tempering.
The others also revealed a joyful expression. They let go of their worries and began their own cultivation.
After an unknown amount of time, Zhao Yuande opened his eyes.
He felt that his Laceration Dao had successfully reached the peak of the fourth minor step.
"You can't continue like this. If you continue to cultivate, it will take a lot of effort to fuse the Metal Dao. You must first comprehend the Metal Dao's Sharpness Dao!" Zhao Yuande stood up and casually walked a few steps in the great hall.
Seeing that everyone was still cultivating, he didn't disturb them. Instead, he placed a strand of his Divine Soul on Han Yu and quietly walked out of the great hall.
There were two guards at the entrance of the great hall. When they saw Zhao Yuande walk out, they couldn't help but step forward and respectfully ask, "May I know where Young Master wants to go?"
"Oh! I want to walk around the city. "Zhao Yuande said.
"How about I lead the way for Young Master?" One of the guards was a middle-aged man. He volunteered and patted his chest. "I have lived in the city for over a thousand years. I am very familiar with every inch of the city."
"Alright!" Zhao Yuande nodded and revealed a smile.
