Global Cultivation: First-time Top-up for the Ultimate Destiny Treasure Chapter 84

Chapter 84: Returning to the Nie Family Branch, Nie Ling Was Shocked

The sky was clear and cloudless, and the blue waves were especially dazzling under the dazzling sunlight.

A few thousand meters away from the Giant Lizard Island, a figure broke through the surface of the sea and rose up, bringing waves with it.

This figure was Su Yi. After staying in the sea for nearly half an hour, he finally returned to the surface of the sea.

As soon as he came out of the sea, the first thing he did was to take a deep breath of air. Then, he gathered his true essence under his feet and stood steadily on the surface of the sea.

He swept his gaze around and found that he had already left the area of the Giant Lizard Island. He did not have to worry about being found by Xuan Lingzi of the Sword Pavilion.

It could be said that he was completely out of the predicament now.

Next, he just needed to bring the materials back to the Nie family branch to refine pills.. He used his divine sense to look at the materials in the s.p.a.ce of the immortal seal, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

On this trip to the bottom of the canyon, he had obtained nearly 600 Thunder Bamboos and one thousand-year-old Thunder Bamboo.

Not to mention, he also obtained an extremely handy magical artifact. This trip could be said to be full of gains.

Then, he took a look at the Giant Lizard Island standing in the sea from afar. He put away the overflowing smile and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

If he had to do it all over again, he would rather not meet the third elder of the Sword Pavlion. No one liked to gamble with their own lives, and Su Yi was no exception.

Putting away the soul-stirring cold light in his eyes, he looked at the sh.o.r.e of the continent and the direction of Horizon City and muttered, “it’s time to go back.”

Two days had pa.s.sed since he left Horizon City. During the period when he lost consciousness, a night had quietly pa.s.sed.

True essence was poured into his feet. After which, both of his feet began to step on the waves. However, he was not heading back to the Giant Lizard Island. Instead, he was heading back to the continent.

…

Horizon City–

In the huge teleportation formation, a beam of light streaked across the sky and landed in the teleportation formation.

A figure wearing a gray robe walked out of the formation.

This figure was Su Yi. He had already put on a disguise.

He had already changed out of the eye-catching Frostflame Robe. He was wearing a very ordinary robe. His handsome face was covered by a gray scarf, and his sharp eyes were looking around.

Previously, when he had just arrived at the outer area of the Giant Lizard Island from Horizon City, he was chased by Xuan Lingzi. This was definitely not a coincidence.

On the way back, he communicated with Nie Ling through the immortal destiny seal and asked if there were any forces of the Sword Pavilion in Horizon City.

After hearing about Su Yi’s problem, Nie Ling was worried for a while. After knowing that Su Yi was safe and sound, she slowly told him about the Sword Pavlion.

Although the Sword Pavilion’s forces were in the southern region of the Central Plains, there were more or less some forces’ spies hidden in the cities of the Central Plains.

After hearing this, Su Yi changed into a disguise and used the teleportation node to return to Horizon City.

At this time, the aura on his body was different. The fierce aura on his body dissipated faintly, just like those cultivators who came back from hunting demon beasts in the cultivation mystic realm.

He scanned his surroundings and found nothing unusual. Then, he moved his feet and quickly walked toward the branch of the Nie family.

On the way, the surrounding cultivators came and went. After disguising himself, Su Yi walked around several streets and did not find anything unusual.

He secretly heaved a sigh of relief. After making sure that no one was targeting him this time, he moved his body and directly went to the branch of the Nie family.

At this moment, Nie Ling was already quietly waiting in front of the main hall of the branch’s pavilion.

Only to see a figure appear in front of the main door in Nie Ling’s eyes.

It was Su Yi.

His current appearance had long been mentioned to Nie Ling in the immortal destiny seal. It was not surprising for him to appear in front of the Nie family branch’s main door at this time.

A faint smile appeared on her face as she lightly walked to the front of the figure and faintly asked.

“Fellow Daoist Su, you’re back.”

At this moment, the Nie family branch was very quiet. There were not many customers trading items here.

Since there were not any outsiders, Nie Ling did not beat around the bush and directly greeted Su Yi. Su Yi also directly took off his scarf and nodded at Nie Ling.

“Mm, Let’s go upstairs and talk.”

Hearing this, Nie Ling also lightly nodded and did not say much. In her opinion, it was good that Su Yi was able to return to the trading company safe and sound.

She silently followed behind Su Yi, a trace of guilt flas.h.i.+ng in her eyes. When she heard that Su Yi had been attacked by that person from the Sword Pavilion, her heart was wrought with anxiety, but when she heard that Su Yi was safe and sound, her heart calmed down again.

The two of them, one in front and one behind, lightly raised their footsteps and quickly went upstairs to a discussion room.

Nie Ling motioned for Su Yi to sit down, but she started to make a pot of tea for him.

The pure white jade slowly lifted the teapot and gently poured a cup of hot tea for Su Yi.

Then, he gently opened her jade-like lips and said softly, “thank you for your hard work.”

There was not much to say, but the meaning in their eyes contained everything.

This was the so-called feeling of knowing the root of the matter. Without needing Nie Ling to say anything, Su Yi knew what she was expressing.

He gently lifted his teacup and downed it in one gulp. After that, he smiled faintly.

“There’s no such thing as hard work. The matter of the Sword Pavilion started because of me. I just didn’t expect that the Sword Pavilion would be so shameless to actually send those old demons to deal with me.”

Hearing this, Nie Ling’s eyes flashed with guilt and she did not say anything else.

Then, Su Yi looked at Nie Ling and asked.

“How’s the matter with the branch?”

Nie Ling heard this and lightly shrugged her shoulders.

“It’s still the same. We lack the key ingredient, the Thunder Bamboo. The Thunder Bamboo is considered a relatively rare material. Even if we raise the price, we won’t be able to buy enough medicinal herbs in a short period of time.”

Her eyes were somewhat desolate. Even with Su Yi’s help in refining pills, how could she refine pills when the materials were lacking.

She sighed slightly. It seemed that the collapse of the Nie family branch was a foregone conclusion.

Moreover, after the branch closed down, she could not continue to stay by Su Yi’s side.

This made her expression a little sad.

However, she did not expect that after hearing her words, the corner of Su Yi’s mouth rose slightly, and he immediately waved his hand.

A pile of Thunder Bamboos appeared in Nie Ling’s eyes.

“Thunder bamboos, I have them.”

“This…” Nie Ling’s eyes were filled with disbelief as she looked at the hundreds of Thunder Bamboos.

After all, Su Yi had only gone to the Giant Lizard Island for two days. How did he manage to collect so many Thunder Bamboos?

One had to know that such a large number of Thunder Bamboos would take ten days to half a month to find so many among the teams that specialized in searching for materials.

Nie Ling watched the smiling figure in front of her. This man had once again created a miracle.

Nie Ling caught herself smiling at Su Yi.

“Fellow Daoist Nie, prepare the rest of the pill refinement materials. Leave the rest to me.”
