Chapter 116: Five Squads Gather
"So, how much are these monsters worth?"
Han Shaoyun approached with a smile, completely ignoring Ling Yunxiao's face, which was as black as the bottom of a pot.
"Sigh... I'll lose 60..."
Ling Yunxiao sighed, then realized a second later that he shouldn't have said it, but it was too late. Wang Mian had already heard him, and he quickly took out his phone and dialed a number.
"Captain, we're at Tujiao Pass. There really was a big guy there, but we've taken care of it. Now, let's rejoin the team! The medium is coming with us; he says he wants to say hello to Yunxiao."
On the other end of the phone, Si Xiaonan spoke in a cheerful tone.
"Come here! I'll give you all a magic trick of making someone disappear!"
"Captain, what's wrong?"
Hearing Wang Mian's gritted teeth, Si Xiaonan asked in confusion.
"Hmph... Yunxiao, you just put on a big show, single-handedly taking on the beast horde and wiping them all out!"
"How much was consumed?"
Si Xiaonan was quite perceptive; hearing how angry he was, she already guessed that this was definitely a loss for him.
"60 million!"
"Hmph... You and Lao Han must hold him down! I'll go back and turn him into a little loli right now."
If it were only a matter of tens of thousands, Si Xiaonan might have pleaded for Ling Yunxiao, after all, he had been a support player for so long, it hadn't been easy for him. But after hearing the specific number, she could only say that no one could save Ling Yunxiao today.
After Si Xiaonan hung up the phone, Han Shaoyun and Wang Mian stood on either side of Ling Yunxiao. Although Ling Yunxiao hadn't heard the voice on the phone, a bad premonition sent a chill down his spine.
Just then, two golden streaks of light descended swiftly from the void, and Nezha and Yang Jian returned.
"Captain, it was Vishnu from the Temple of Athena and Angorboda from Asgard who brought some forbidden items to provoke us. Vishnu was seriously injured and fled, while Angorboda was killed on the spot. Are you all alright here?"
"It's alright, you two are back just in time. Now carry out my orders, you two hold Ling Yunxiao down and don't let him escape!"
"what happened?"
Nezha was a little confused, but Yang Jian had already guessed what was going on, so he obediently held down Ling Yunxiao's arm.
After Wang Mian explained what had happened, Nezha raised his head and cautiously looked at Ling Yunxiao.
"Yunxiao, tell me the truth, how much energy did you use to help me regain my strength from my past life?"
"210 million!"
Ling Yunxiao dared not hesitate at this moment and quickly told the truth. Unfortunately, his words not only failed to quell the anger of the group, but also led Yang Jian and Nezha to join Wang Mian's camp. The two of them held him down, clearly showing much more sincerity.
Just then, the roar of an airplane sounded overhead, and then a huge, fiery red phoenix descended from the sky.
Seven silver streaks of light appeared in mid-air at the same time and fell towards the crowd.
When Wang Mian saw the flowing light, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up. With a slight flick of his wrist, the [Masked] team landed in front of everyone first.
After landing, the Phoenix team members scanned their surroundings. At this moment, the Red Lotus Karmic Fire had not yet been extinguished. The team members were surprised before they noticed Ling Yunxiao.
Ling Yunxiao thought of the useless pure essence blood he had just obtained and was about to hand it all over to Phoenix when Yue Gui approached him.
"Brother Ling, you can't be so obviously prioritizing your girlfriend over your friends, can you? We can use this thing too!"
Ling Yunxiao was slightly taken aback, then divided the essence blood he had just harvested into two equal portions, handing one to Xia Simeng and the other to Tianping.
"Thank you for the reward, Brother Ling..."
Both groups immediately beamed with joy, simultaneously bowing and clasping their hands in greeting to Ling Yunxiao. Ling Yunxiao rolled his eyes at them, annoyed, and was about to say something.
Just then, the purple beam of lightning descended, and Wu Tongxuan's eyes swept over the blood essence in the hands of the two teams. Without any politeness, he opened his palm to Ling Yunxiao.
"You can't favor one over the other. Both teams have them. What's wrong with Bu Li?"
Ling Yunxiao coughed twice, inwardly relieved that he still had some stock to send out.
"Phew...we're back!"
Baili Pangpang's laughter rang out, and then the entire Nightfall team, led by Lin Qiye, landed on the city wall.
"Brother Ling, what good stuff are you getting? Do we get any?"
At this point, Lin Qiye had realized the gap between his team and the other teams. Isn't pride something to be used in crucial moments like this? Surely no one would give up money and strength for the sake of dignity, right?
Ling Yunxiao was truly heartbroken this time. After all, his pure essence blood was almost depleted, and if he gave away any more, he would have to give away divine blood. The divine blood he had prepared was all for Wang Mian's breakthrough to godhood.
"call……"
"Oh no...we're too late!"
Two more figures appeared one after the other. One figure had a long string of ethereal code in front of him, while the other was a blue phoenix, the familiar Zuo Qing.
"You're all back!"
Zuo Qing smiled immediately upon seeing Ling Yunxiao and Lin Qiye. The Great Xia Dynasty had been extremely busy lately, and the twelve passes were short of soldiers and generals. The return of these two teams was very timely.
"【Uncharted】Squad? Nice to meet you all, I'm Guan Zai!"
As Guan spoke, his gaze swept over everyone before he precisely grasped Ling Yunxiao's hand.
"Senior Guan Zai, hello. I am Ling Yunxiao. I have no special abilities, and this mere hundred years of lifespan is a small gift for you."
Ling Yunxiao unceremoniously activated the Healing Technique on the person who rescued him, and then even transferred a hundred years of his lifespan.
Guan's enthusiasm stemmed from hearing other high-ranking figures mention Ling Yunxiao. For example, he saved Zhou Ping and gave him something that granted him near-immortality. He also built a dragon lake for Lu Wuwei and found a royal steward for the Master…
He hadn't expected Ling Yunxiao to be so generous and magnanimous. In just a moment, he felt that the person in front of him was his best friend.
Are you trying to extort them?
Zuo Qing looked at the positions of everyone around Ling Yunxiao and couldn't help but speak up.
Wang raised an eyebrow, clearly not intending to let Ling Yunxiao off the hook.
"The thing he just gave out has an upgraded version that can improve a person's physical strength and mental power. Moreover, those who are half-step ceiling can reach the ceiling, and those who are at the ceiling have the opportunity to comprehend the power of rules."
Ling Yunxiao's face darkened further. Who was he working so hard for? Wasn't it all for you, saving your divine blood? How could you be so generous?
Sure enough, after Wang Mian finished speaking, Zuo Qing's gaze towards Ling Yunxiao changed, and Guan Zai blinked even more. He was about to comprehend his own Dao, but he was still somewhat hesitant...
"Good good..."
Ling Yunxiao had no choice but to give each member of the Spirit Medium team, Zuo Qing, a drop of essence blood. The members of the [Nightfall] team, however, were only given pure Yuan essence blood; after all, their strength was too low, and using divine blood would be somewhat wasteful.
Looking at the same scales in his hand as Xia Simeng's, Lin Qiye was filled with gratitude. He couldn't possibly have any objections.
