After the giant statueâs intermittent voice came out, Xu Xiaoshouâs expression froze.
50âŠ
I only have 35 Void Crystals in total!
He didnât think that after all the careful calculations, he would not have enough moneyâŠ
Xu Xiaoshou had already made up his mind to buy the Death Exemption Token. After the death countdown was lifted, he would directly make his escape. He would look for his little junior sister first and then leave this dangerous vortex together with her.
But who would have thoughtâŠ
âCan I pay on credit?â Xu Xiaoshou raised his head with a last trace of hope.
âSo, you give me the Death Exemption Token first, and Iâll give you a portion of the Void Crystals. I will pay up the rest later?â Xu Xiaoshou took out a full stack of Void Crystals.
With a loud clatter, Xu Xiaoshou took out all the Void Crystals he had.
He would return with the balance in all sincerity to make up for the shortfall.
The giant statue didnât say anything. It didnât even count the Void Crystals.
The last person who wanted to pay on credit had already gone out to do something exceptional merely for two Void Crystals. How could it break the rules and make an exception?
Xu Xiaoshouâs face darkened as he mulled over the possibility if he were to take it by force.
Gu Qingyi glanced at the pile of black hexagonal crystals in Brother Chenâs hands and remained silent. He had never seen such a thing before, so even if he wanted to, he couldnât help now.
Gu Qinger, on the other hand, fell into deep thought as he looked at the pile of Void Crystals.
âBrother Chen, donât you have enough?â he asked.
Xu Xiaoshou stared at him blankly; Whatâs with this nonsense? If I had enough, would I be in such a dazed state?
âI have some!â Gu Qinger slapped his thigh and took out a black hexagonal crystal from his spatial ring. He compared it to the one in Brother Chenâs handâŠ
Hey! Was this a coincidence or what? It was identical!
Xu Xiaoshou was stunned for a moment and then was overjoyed.
âHow many do you need?â
âHmm? Your tone⊠Oh, I still need 15. Do you have 15?â
âI think I still have quite a lot, but I donât know what theyâre for. Forget it, Iâll give them all to you!â Gu Qinger waved his hand, and a batch of Void Crystals flew out from his spatial ring.
Xu Xiaoshou counted the lot.
Little chap.
Youâre even richer than me!
There are a total of 70 Void Crystals!â
When it was a matter of life and death, Xu Xiaoshou would not stand on ceremony. He thanked him and took all the 70 Void Crystals.
Together with his own, there were a total of 105 Void Crystals; that was equivalent to two Death Exemption Tokens.
He would keep one for himself and give the other to his Teacher.
As for Xiao Kongtong⊠Well, there was no other way. He had to fend for himself.
He took out 15 Void Crystals and added them into his pile. With this large amount of wealth, Xu Xiaoshou wanted to exchange for a Death Exemption Token first.
However, he thought of something and stopped.
âWait, why do you have so many Void Crystals?â
Gu Qinger was stumped by this question. He frowned and tilted his head as he tried to recall.
Gu Qinger stood there and tried to figure it out for a while, but he couldnât think of an answer. It was as if he had been born with this fortune and knew that it was called the Void Crystal. He also knew that it had been in his spatial ring from the beginning.
âThatâs right. Brother Chen, you make perfect sense. How could I have Void Crystals?â
Gu Qingyiâs eyes narrowed when he heard that. This was quite an unusual matter. âBrother Chen, how does one get this Void Crystal?â
âEither carry out the mission given by the Void Attendant and get one or two at a time, or killâŠâ Xu Xiaoshou paused and glanced at the indifferent giant statue. He continued, âKill the Void Attendant and rob it!â
âMy junior brother can only delay the Void Attendant at most. He canât kill him.â Gu Qingyi was very certain about this.
âThen he must have completed 35 jobsâŠâ Xu Xiao Shou spoke without thinking.
D*mn!
He had accepted the Void Attendantâs mission and Lei Xiâer had been with him. That was why the reward was two Void Crystals.
Under normal circumstances, one could only get one Void Crystal for one mission.
Therefore, Gu Qinger did not do anything on the Abyss Island. He only accepted missions and killed the Higher Void.
Within a few days, he had killed a total of 70 Higher Voids!
Was this rubbish or what?
Gu Qingyi thought so too.
He scanned his junior brother from head to toe, but did not find anything unusual on him. âTry to recall where you got your Void Crystals.â
Gu Qinger could not come up with an answer.
Xu Xiaoshou could tell that he was not trying to hide anything, but that he really did not know.
âFive Decays of Heaven and Man?â
This person suddenly flashed across his mind, and Xu Xiaoshou felt that this was the only answer left.
The strength of the Five Decays of Heaven and Man was definitely enough to kill the Void Attendant. So after he killed and plundered the Void Crystals, he placed a portion of it on Gu Qinger?
But that didnât make sense!
The Five Decays of Heaven and Man used Gu Qinger to the point of death.
Under such circumstances, how could he have given Gu Qinger 70 Void Crystals?
Is it because⊠you canât put all your eggs in one basket?
However, with the Five Decays of Heaven and Manâs strength, if the basket on his side was really broken, it meant that he had met a peak Demi-Saint and died in battle.
Of course, he wouldnât have gotten the Void Crystals from Gu Qinger, so it didnât make sense!
Xu Xiaoshou was puzzled.
Gu Qinger was a little scared. He held his head and recalled with a conflicted and pained expression, âEldest Senior Brother, I seem to have forgotten somethingâŠâ
âYou have indeed forgotten something.â Before Gu Qingyi could say anything, Xu Xiaoshou said seriously, âWhen I saved you, you were still in the hands of the Five Decays of Heaven and Man, a member of Yama.â
