Chapter 1346 – I Don't Believe You

“Oh?” Old Hei paused. He didn't expect Elder Yu's terms to be so simple. He'd be an idiot if he didn't agree to terms like this.

“Which item is it you want?” James asked. Since he already said he wanted to be a team, there was no need to worry about him hurting them.

“You don't need to think about that.” He said faintly. “Only reply yes or no, my patience is limited!”

“Alright!” Old Hei smiled bitterly. It wasn't like this guy was giving them a choice. They'd probably all die here if they said no, right? This was an Earth cla.s.s- what could they do?

“Good. It's settled then.” Elder Yu nodded. “You guys are smarter than that Little Hao, it seems, not playing dirty tricks and all that…”

“Did I say, yes?” Lin Yi spoke up.

“Ah?” Old Hei and James froze.

“Young one, do you want to die?” Elder Yu said as he turned to glare at him as if he'd suffered great humiliation. “Don't think I wouldn't kill you!”

“You can't kill me. At the very least, I'll use my qi bomb again and explode you,” Lin Yi said faintly.

“Qi bomb?” Elder Yu paused. ” You were using qi, not explosives?”

“Are you dumb? You bring explosives with you when you go out?” Lin YI replied.

“I didn't expect that, young one- you've got some moves!” Elder Yu frowned. ” I don't believe you can pull that off again…”

“You can try.” Lin Yi said casually. “Why're you so noisy?”

“Just what is it you want?” Elder Yu had just gotten blasted by Lin Yi, and he had some reservations when it came to the energy bomb. From his perspective, he was a precious vase, while these tomb raiders were crazy people. They could do things that bring the enemy and themselves to the grave- Elder Yu didn't want to mess with that.

“Tell me what it is you want first.” Lin Yi asked.

Elder Yu's face changed, clearly a bit unwilling. After some time, he spoke up. “It is said that Zhang Liju's medical skills are extremely high- he used to make qi gathering elixirs for pract.i.tioners. There might be some of those in his tomb!”

“Qi gathering elixirs?” Lin YI paused- he seemed to recall hearing about this before in some log but didn't remember too much of it.

“If we find it, I'll take it- if not, I don't want anything.” Elder Yu said.

“Shouldn't be a problem if I tell you- this helps Earth cla.s.s pract.i.tioners break through the bottleneck, entering Sky cla.s.s!” Even if you got it, it wouldn't help you!

Even Old Hei and James, who weren't pract.i.tioners, made a shocked face. Pus.h.i.+ng an Earth into Sky… Just how powerful was this item?

If the elixir was on the market, just what sort of insane, ridiculous price would it yield? The hidden houses and sects would scramble over each other, trying to get it no matter the price!

It could be said that the entire tomb's worth wasn't even the same value of just this one item alone. But, getting this elixir wasn't something normal people like tomb raiders wanted to get their hands on- this was the playing field of hidden houses and sects, it wasn't their world! They couldn't handle businesses like that!

These people killed without blinking, even more so than tomb raiders. These things were stuff you thought about, but you never actually went through with it. It was too much danger and trouble! If they were from n.o.ble houses or if they were pract.i.tioners themselves, they'd probably do business with you properly, but if not, one would just die.

On the other side, Xiaoke, Lingshan, and Yutian were in disbelief as well- such an item existed in the common world?

“Oh,” Lin Yi nodded casually, “Then what if there's two? Are you taking only one?”

Old Yu's face changed, his heart irritated. What was with this kid, was he just a little child? He said that he'd take the item, but if there were two of those, naturally, he'd take all of them! He didn't say he'd just take one unit of it!

“What else? Of course, I'd take the other one, this is considered the same item.” Old Yu hmphed.

“Is that so? Then other than this item, there isn't anything else you want?” Lin Yi hmphed. “You've already gone back on your word already. I have difficulty trusting your honor. You have no honor at all- what would I be able to do if you go back on your word once more?”

“Why would you ask that if you know, you wouldn't be able to do anything?” Old Yu was getting p.i.s.sed off- this kid had brain problems or something? What was all this bulls.h.i.+t?

“Then, you've admitted that there's something other than this item that you're interested in?” Lin Yi smiled coldly. “If my guess is right, you have something else that's important, more so than this item, which you're using as a front. An elixir this precious, and you just tell us its use without hesitation- you're no idiot, aren't you worried we'd want it? Your goal is simple. You want to direct our attention to something else so that we'd filter out something more important. Am I right?”

Elder Yu's face was solemn- he didn't think Lin Yi would a.n.a.lyze it that well, exposing him! He was right. House Yu was after something else as well!

But this other item could be copied- Elder Yu didn't want to tell them since they might all ask for a copy by the end- it'd make things difficult for him!

If he were able to exit the tomb safely, then he wouldn't care- he just worried that it wouldn't be so easy. He couldn't p.i.s.s these tomb raiders off at that point since he didn't know how to get around the dangers of the entire structure by himself!

Just like today, it was easy to get in but hard to get out- even as an Earth cla.s.s, he didn't dare be arrogant about that! He had decided to find the true item he wanted secretly and then use the pill as a front since the item he actually wanted to be was small in size. It was easy to smuggle that for someone like him.
