Chapter 72: The Way to Choose
Just the day after the Qi family evacuated from the island with all their might, a more intense battle broke out on the island in the middle of the lake. The loud bang and the flames connecting the sky were still clearly visible a hundred miles away.
Qi San didn't say much, urging everyone to fly at full speed for three days until they crossed the lake and returned to the forest outside Qixia Valley, and found a valley far away from the monsters and stopped to rest.
The forest is quiet, the clouds are quiet, and the wind is light, and yesterday's killing seems to be just a dream.
Xiaochuan sat at the foot of a towering ancient tree, holding several fire dragon grasses that had been born in more than 20 years old and teasing the piglet. No matter how quickly Xiaochuan hits out the spiritual grass with spiritual energy, the piglet can hold it and swallow it very quickly like a lightning bolt.
On the island in the middle of the lake, Xiaozhu had emptied Xiaochuan's inventory again. After these spiritual herbs arrived in this valley, the original Xuanhuang Dead Soldier helped find it. Fortunately, Xiaozhu had swallowed a large number of precious spiritual objects along the way, and his cultivation level increased significantly, allowing Xiaochuan to see the dawn of its advancement and the spiritual beast's transformation.
At some point, the light and shadow flashed, and Qi San appeared quietly beside Xiaochuan.
"Master Qi San!" Xiaochuan greeted and quickly carried Xiaozhu back into his arms, unwilling to let others have too much contact to avoid discovering the secret of his natal spirit beast.
Fortunately, Qi San's attention was not on Xiaozhu at all. "Qiansheng, let's talk about this mission, why did I act like this?"
Recently, Qi Sanyue valued Ogawa and often studied strategies with Ogawa, and wanted to use Ogawa as his own.
It just so happened that Ogawa had many thoughts in his mind to confirm it, and Ogawa couldn't get it if Qi San's suggestion.
"Without the public eye, and under the scrutiny of the crowd, there is no absolute strength to try to touch the spiritual veins, and it will definitely become the target of public criticism. Therefore, the third master chose to give up searching and wait and see what happened!"
"Not bad!" Qi San stroked his beard, nodded and smiled.
"The spiritual vein appears, and many forces like moths to the fire. Once they intervene easily, they will surely cause fire to burn themselves. All the three masters choose to stick to their duties!"
"Um!"
"The competition for the spiritual veins is over, and the winner is not allowed to have covetous people on his side. They will definitely clear them up, so the third master issued an order to defend with all his strength!"
Qi San was quite satisfied with Okawa's understanding, and smiled but didn't say anything. He just looked at Okawa and encouraged Okawa to continue talking.
"The Xuanyuan family has just seized the spiritual vein. Although it can stand out among many forces, the casualties must be heavy. I am even more afraid that someone will take advantage of the situation and dare not attack too hard. Therefore, the third master is confident that as long as you strengthen your defense, you can protect your comprehensive protection!"
"The third master even realized in advance that after the Xuanyuan family had pinched those soft persimmons, those hard bones that could not be chewed down in one go, would definitely seek compromise!"
"Master Three, the only thing I can't figure out is why you agreed to the other party's conditions so easily. If we can persist, can't we get greater benefits?" Without waiting for Qi San to speak, Ogawa directly raised the biggest question in his heart.
"Hahaha, you are strong, you are still young, this is called the way to choose!" Qi San was quite proud and explained to himself.
"The Xuanyuan family sought rest after the battle, so they were willing to take out some crystal stones. The Xuanyuan family was originally a famous family in Ganzhou. The ability to laugh to the end in the battle for spiritual veins proves their strength."
"If other families could unite, they might be able to suppress their edge, but it would be impossible to reach an agreement when they were fighting each other."
Seeing that Xiaochuan was listening seriously, Qi San was very proud and shook his head and said.
"The Xuanyuan family dares not attack for force, so they can only take advantage of their wisdom. Negotiations with the Xuanyuan family may be an opportunity to make a fortune or a crisis of destruction!"
"If all families or most families reject the conditions of the Xuanyuan family, it is possible to allow the Xuanyuan family to continue to increase their bargaining chips!"
"If most families accept the conditions and only a few families refuse, the rejected family will be pushed to destruction! Even as long as there are enough families to retreat, all remaining families will become targets for destruction."
"The Xuanyuan family has decided to negotiate, why would it still put force into force?" Ogawa was still a little confused.
"Being able to seize the spiritual veins has proved that the Xuanyuan family has the strength to destroy any family. When he has no scruples, he will be stingy with every crystal and choose to destroy his opponent! This opponent may be every family that refuses the negotiation conditions! Or every family that accepts the conditions late!"
"If we hesitate for a few more days and other families accept the conditions to retreat first, you may not be able to stand here now!"
"If you were the commander, would you choose to pursue greater benefits and take huge risks, or choose to seize the immediate interests and get out of here?"
"This is the way for a cultivator who knows advancement and retreat and knows choices! Think more!"
Qi San saw that Xiaochuan seemed to have many insights, and fell into deep thought, patted Xiaochuan on the shoulder and floated away.
"The way to choose! The way to choose" only Ogawa left alone muttering to himself in the forest.
When he set out again, Ogawa unexpectedly proposed that the original forty Xuanhuang warriors would open the passage.
"Is this your choice?" Qi San was quite puzzled by this. He really couldn't figure out why Okawa wanted to put himself in danger. However, after Okawa's repeated insistence, considering the strength of this team of dead soldiers, he would go with him.
Only these Xuanhuang warriors have a little complaint, but they have been through life and death with Ogawa so many times, and they have chosen to believe in Ogawa's strength.
The happiest thing is that the newly joined dead soldiers, Ogawa's self-recommendation, saved them from the pain of cannon fodder, and they may have saved their lives for this.
In fact, Xiaochuan did not expect others to die. It was Xiaochuan's fundamental purpose and Xiaochuan's way of choosing and making the piglet eat spiritual things more time in Qixia Valley.
Moreover, the Ten Thousand Poison Purple Smoke is becoming more and more convenient to use, and Ogawa also wants it to grow stronger by continuing to swallow the blood of monsters.
At this time, the Qi family's team was still in the depths of the Qixia Valley Forest. Various powerful monsters appeared frequently, and the spirit objects were widely distributed and of high-quality. Xiaochuan simply moved forward in a winding and detour on the grounds of avoiding monsters and led the team to circle here.
Although the Qi family did not occupy the spiritual veins during this trip, no one expected that so many families would participate in the competition, including giants like the Xuanyuan family. They could protect themselves under such circumstances and gain rich returns. They could be considered a great victory and return in triumphant success.
Qi San was in a good mood, so he let Xiaochuan do whatever he wanted. Even the corpses of ordinary Jindan stage monsters turned a blind eye and no longer took them all for himself. Xiaochuan also got some precious materials on the Jindan stage monsters, including a golden elixir.
