Chapter 178 How to Repel the Enemy
Lin Shiyi shook his head and said, "I don't know anyone from Chaos Palace or Jade Maiden Pavilion, so why should I help them?"
Hearing this, Lu Qingyao's expression eased a lot. She nodded and said, "Yeah...that's right. You've eaten so many of my mid-level crystals, so you should help me out a bit."
Unexpectedly, Lin Shiyi shook his head and said, "I ate your Yuanjing and helped you refine many life-changing pills. We are even now. Why should I help you?"
"you..."
Being pulled like this, Lu Qingyao almost exploded with anger, and immediately pointed at Lin Shiyi and said, "So what do you want?"
Lin Shiyi immediately pinched his chin and began to think. While thinking, he walked to the side, sat on a chair, and then crossed his legs arrogantly.
"How about this, Lord Lu, if you promise to give me the remaining half of the intermediate crystal, I will help you again."
Lin Shiyi has changed the address to Palace Master Lu instead of Senior Sister Lu, which means that he has acknowledged that he is not a member of the Demon Refining Palace. This made Lu Qingyao couldn't help but clench the corner of her clothes.
She turned her head slightly and looked at the much shorter Yuan Crystal Stone behind her, and she couldn't help but hesitate.
Although a lot of mid-level Yuan Crystals were indeed obtained during the robbery of the Jade Maiden Pavilion, this thing is extremely precious and cannot be taken out casually. The half piece behind her is enough for her to use for at least a few years. Lin Shiyi has already absorbed half of it, but I didn't expect that he would still want to take it now.
But at this point, Lu Qingyao has no one else to rely on.
The Jade Maiden Pavilion no longer protected her, and instead joined forces with the Chaos Palace to attack her. The three elders even turned against her and wanted to attack her secretly. Although the Demon Refining Palace now has many cultivators at the peak of the early stage of the Spirit Transformation, they only make up for the gap with the low-level cultivators of other forces. The gap in cultivation between the middle and high-level levels is still too big, and they are no match at all in a fight.
What's more, the two factions have joined forces, and there will be at least a dozen cultivators in the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm. Even if she goes into battle in person, she is afraid that she will not be able to withstand the constant fighting.
Thinking about it carefully, she really could only place her hopes on Lin Shiyi. This guy was known as the Alchemy Immortal. Not only could he refine life-changing pills, but his cultivation was also rising rapidly. Not long after he arrived, he had soared from the early stage of the Spirit Transformation to the current peak of the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation. If she were to give him some more Yuan Crystals and allow him to advance to the late stage of the Spirit Transformation, it would indeed greatly enhance his combat effectiveness, and it would be no problem for him to withstand this disaster.
But what worries her now is, what if this guy changes his mind after improving his cultivation?
Seeing Lu Qingyao struggling, Lin Shiyi naturally understood what she was thinking, so he immediately said, "Palace Master Lu, I, Lin Shiyi, can't guarantee anything else, but I can still boast about my integrity. Since you saw that I brought a world of living beings with me, why do you still doubt my virtue?"
Hearing this, Lu Qingyao suddenly realized.
She had never seen many cultivators who escaped with an interface after ascending. You know, all major forces manage some small interfaces. They mine various crystals from those small interfaces, pass their own skills down to the interfaces, and absorb the power of the creatures in the lower world. Therefore, those small interfaces are their private property. Lin Shiyi actually dared to destroy the interface channel and take the small interface away by himself. He will be wanted.
In other words, he has been a wanted criminal for a long time, which is why he has taken refuge in the Demon Refining Palace. Now you might as well try to trust him and see what kind of waves he can make.
Thinking of this, Lu Qingyao nodded and said, "Okay, I agree to give you the remaining intermediate crystals, but you have to promise to help me protect the Demon Refining Palace no matter what."
Lin Shiyi was stunned for a moment, and nodded as well: "I can't guarantee it, I can only say that I will try my best..."
After hearing this, Lu Qingyao breathed a sigh of relief.
If Lin Shiyi promised readily, she really wouldn't believe it, but since Lin Shiyi said he would try his best, it means he will still help.
So without saying anything, she stretched out her slender jade fingers and lightly tapped, and half of the Yuan Crystal Stone behind her flew towards Lin Shiyi.
Lin Shiyi was extremely happy and put it into his storage bag. He then bowed and thanked him, "Thank you, Palace Master. I will do my best to help you defend the Demon Refining Palace."
Lu Qingyao nodded and said, "Well, how are you going to deal with those three people?"
Hearing this, Lin Shiyi thought for a moment and said, "Tomorrow they will come to meet us on the pretext of discussing a strategy to repel the enemy. When Bian Desheng gives the order, you and I will attack at the same time. I believe that with our cultivation at the peak of the middle stage of the Spiritualization Realm, it should not be difficult to capture three middle stage Spiritualization Realms."
"Well, we'll do as you say, but what will happen next? The Chaos Palace and the Jade Maiden Pavilion are coming together, and we are definitely no match for them."
Lu Qingyao said worriedly.
Lin Shiyi said, "We'll talk about it later. For now, let's take it one step at a time and solve the current problems first. Then things will work out when the time comes."
Seeing this, Lu Qingyao could only respond: "Okay, I'll listen to you. I hope you won't let me down."
Lin Shiyi waved his hand, then stood up and walked towards the cabinet.
Seeing that he was going to go into seclusion, Lu Qingyao certainly didn't stop him. She just sat alone on the phoenix chair with a sad look on her face.
The entire Demon Refining Palace was extremely silent. The cultivators were all in the God Hiding Pavilion to replenish their vital energy. Now the vital energy in the first two layers was no longer differentiated by thickness, as they were all low-level Yuan Crystals. The ninth layer was still occupied by those three people, but the mid-level Yuan Crystals were almost used up. Lu Qingyao did not go to replenish it. Those three people had already shown their fangs. If she still gave them Yuan Crystals, wouldn't she be a real fool?
Time passed quickly. Lin Shiyi was absorbing the vitality of the half Yuan Crystal in the cabinet, but Qin Yue came to tell him that the palace lord wanted him to meet in the palace.
Lin Shiyi immediately collected the remaining Yuan Crystals. After a night of absorption, this half piece of Yuan Crystal was reduced by a quarter, but his cultivation was still at the peak of the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, without any change. It seemed that if he wanted to make further progress, he would either need more intermediate-level Yuan Crystals or high-level Yuan Crystals.
Thinking of this, he followed Qin Yue out of the cabinet and walked towards the main hall.
Not long after, Lin Shiyi and Qin Yue came to the main hall together. Lu Qingyao was still sitting on the high platform, while Bian Desheng and Qianyue Kunxing, the two siblings, were sitting in the guest seats below.
Lin Shiyi stepped forward and bowed to greet everyone one by one, then sat down in the seat next to Bian Desheng.
Qin Yue stood in front of Lu Qingyao, waiting for her instructions.
The hall was silent for a while. After a long silence, Lu Qingyao finally spoke: "We are facing a powerful enemy. Do you have any strategies to discuss with me?"
Hearing this, Bian Desheng stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Palace Master, your teachings yesterday were very clear to my ears. After returning, the three of us thought hard and felt that we really shouldn't have the heart to surrender. We have decided to do our best to help the Demon Refining Palace overcome this crisis. Please give the order and allow the three of us to secretly leave the Demon Refining Palace and attack the rear of the two factions. The Palace Master will then lead the Palace Master's monks to surround them from the front and kill them by surprise!"
