Chapter 107 Negotiations Reached
"Hey, what are you thinking?"
"Snap out of it! Open your eyes and take a good look at my cultivation level. Think about it carefully. With my current strength, do you think I can defeat those two guys?"
For some unknown reason, Wu Heyi appeared like a ghost, silently standing in front of Xiao Wu without her noticing.
This sudden turn of events caused Xiao Wu to tremble, a chill rising rapidly from her spine and instantly spreading throughout her body.
Wu Heyi raised his hand and flicked Xiao Wu's forehead lightly without any mercy.
In an instant, a sharp pain struck, like a bolt of lightning flashing through my mind.
Xiao Wu didn't have time to react. She instinctively covered her head with her hands and squatted down abruptly.
At the same time, her originally clear eyes instantly filled with glistening tears the size of soybeans, and within those tears, a faint spark of hatred flickered.
"Hmph, stop crying!"
Listen to me, my goal is actually this lake right in front of me!
Moreover, it has a very beautiful name—Lake of Life!
"Isn't that amazing?"
Wu Heyi continued speaking nonchalantly, seemingly unconcerned about his actions just now.
"Lake of Life?"
Upon hearing this unfamiliar name, Xiao Wu couldn't help but be slightly taken aback.
Although she grew up by this lake, her mother never mentioned to her that the lake had such a beautiful name.
At this moment, Xiao Wu was filled with doubt and curiosity, temporarily forgetting the pain of being flicked on the forehead.
"That's right, it's the Lake of Life!"
This lake contains extremely rich life energy, which is highly beneficial to all living things, and its benefits to soul beasts are beyond imagination!
Wu Heyi said with a burning gaze.
"As long as those soul beasts cultivate diligently by the lake, their cultivation speed can be increased to five to ten times their original speed!"
Of course, the specific amplification effect depends on the race of the soul beast itself, and there will be some differences between different races.
To give an example, if you put your Great Ming in this lake every day to soak and nourish it, its cultivation growth rate will definitely far exceed that of the Second Ming.
Even though they had the same amount of cultivation time and innate talent, due to racial differences, Da Ming's cultivation level was a full twenty to thirty thousand years higher than Er Ming's!
Wu Heyi spoke eloquently about the wonders of the Lake of Life.
Wu Heyi's vivid and ingenious description made Xiao Wu understand it instantly.
At this moment, her guard had lessened considerably, but she was still puzzled as to why Wu Heyi had come to her.
Looking at Xiao Wu, who looked completely bewildered, Wu Heyi was at a loss for words.
He muttered to himself, "I've explained it so clearly, it's obvious she wants to go to that lake to cultivate! But why is this girl so clueless?"
Thinking of this, Wu Heyi shook his head helplessly, then gently touched his forehead with his hand, a bitter smile appearing on his face.
"I'm going to cultivate over there!" Wu Heyi said firmly, as if he had already made up his mind.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu instantly understood the other party's intention, but her dissatisfaction also welled up within her.
She pouted and said coquettishly:
"If you want to go, then go. But why did you have to suddenly expose my identity?"
His words were full of resentment and anger.
Wu He, who was being questioned, looked embarrassed and scratched his head, explaining:
"Oh dear, there's nothing I can do about it. I really don't know the specific route."
Besides, if I were to rush there rashly, I certainly wouldn't be able to defeat Da Ming and Er Ming with my current strength!
Wu Heyi felt utterly helpless at this moment, muttering to himself:
This girl usually seems quite clever, so why is she so slow-witted at crucial moments?
However, Xiao Wu didn't seem to have any intention of letting him off easily. Suddenly, a brilliant idea struck her, and her thought process became unusually peculiar. She then retorted:
"Hmph, since you know so much about the situation of the three of us, do you really think you don't know which way to go?"
It must be said that there is some truth to what was said.
It was only then that Wu He's side realized their previous oversight as if waking from a dream.
Indeed, the reason he was able to describe Xiao Wu's condition so clearly was entirely because he knew the entire plot development beforehand.
But in reality, he really knew nothing about how to get to his destination.
"Okay, okay, just pretend I won't leave."
However, for now, I need to ask you for two things.
First, give me a route that avoids most high-level soul beasts;
Secondly, give me a keepsake that belongs to you. That way, when I see your two silly brothers, at least they won't just kill me without saying a word!
After taking a deep breath, Wu Heyi unhesitatingly revealed all his inner needs.
Standing to the side, Xiao Wu frowned slightly, paused for a moment to gather her thoughts, and then slowly spoke:
"Okay, I can meet your requirements, but there's one thing I need to explain in advance."
I won't provide you with any items, but I will personally guide you to your destination. However, please understand beforehand that I can only take you alone!
Xiao Wu's gaze remained fixed on Wu Heyi, her eyes revealing a strong sense of vigilance.
Actually, she wasn't too worried that Wu Heyi would resort to any tricks or schemes during the journey. After all, as long as he didn't try to cause any harm to Daming and Erming, everything was under control.
Besides, I've been away from home for quite some time now, so it's time to go back and visit.
When they arrive at their own territory, whether Wu Heyi, that little devil, is square or round, fat or thin, is entirely up to him to decide!
Upon hearing Xiao Wu's offer to lead him there, Wu Heyi's face lit up with an ecstatic smile, and he nodded eagerly in agreement:
"Yes, yes, no problem! It would be wonderful if you could personally guide us!"
Immediately afterward, the two stepped out of the lounge together. However, as soon as they stepped outside, they saw the other seven strange people surrounding them, all looking on with curiosity and eagerly asking questions:
"Why did you two take so long to come out? What important things did you talk about? Tell us quickly!"
Xiao Wu parted her lips slightly and briefly told everyone about Wu Heyi's plan to go to her hometown to cultivate. It turned out that Xiao Wu's hometown had something special about it, and for this reason, Xiao Wu decided to accompany Wu Heyi there in person.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, Tang San's expression changed drastically, and he objected without hesitation.
He was fully aware of Xiao Wu's "true identity" and "importance," and he found it difficult to feel at ease letting Xiao Wu travel with Wu Heyi.
In Tang San's eyes, Xiao Wu was as precious as a "rare treasure," and any potential risk was enough to make him worry and feel uneasy.
At this moment, his furrowed brows and anxious eyes revealed his deep concern for Xiao Wu's "safety".
