"Four hundred?!" Li Huowang's pupils contracted slightly upon hearing this price. He didn't even need to look at his gourd to know that there definitely wasn't that much inside.
"Don't think it's too expensive. This is a good thing from the Great Qi Dynasty a thousand years ago. Nowadays, there are no more monks who can attain enlightenment."
Li Huowang didn't really think it was too expensive, but he really didn't have that much. He had been busy dealing with illusions before and didn't remember to earn these Yang Shou Dan.
"Then how much for the previous Dharma Eye?" As long as he could let Bai Lingmiao see it, Li Huowang didn't care if she became less attractive.
"Five hundred." The eunuch's words completely dispelled Li Huowang's idea of using a cheap artifact to replace it. He didn't expect the Dharma Eye to be even more expensive than the relic.
He could see that no matter how black-hearted anyone in this world was, they couldn't compare to the Monitors.
The Yang Shou Dan that he had worked so hard to obtain outside, risking his life, couldn't be exchanged for anything in this inner library.
A quick look at "pawread.com" will leave you more fulfilled.
Without the Yang Shou Dan, he couldn't give Bai Lingmiao the relic, and without the relic, Bai Lingmiao would soon end up blind. Li Huowang couldn't tolerate that.
Back then, Li Zhi's gourd only had four Yang Shou Dan, but now he needed a whole four hundred Yang Shou Dan. Even if he wanted to rob, he didn't know where to go.
"But I killed her whole family. What does this little effort count for? In any case, I must get the relic for Bai Lingmiao!" Li Huowang walked heavily towards the outside of the inner library.
Instead of leaving the Monitors, he went directly to the hall full of screens. This was where the Monitors received their assignments.
The people were still the same, but Li Huowang's attitude towards them had changed from hostility to indifference.
Although the Monitors were ruthless, the whole world really couldn't do without them.
"Ergew? You're still alive. I thought you were dead." Hearing the man surnamed Nangong say the same words as Sima Lan before, Li Huowang couldn't be bothered to explain again.
"I want to take on an assignment. Which one has the highest reward?" Li Huowang asked directly, looking at Nangong with a heavy expression.
Seeing Li Huowang's heavy expression, Nangong didn't ask any further and handed him a book. "Find it yourself. It's on the last page."
Li Huowang opened the book directly, and a task written in red ink jumped out at him. "Zuowang Dao, Red, regardless of life or death."
After his gaze lingered on it for a while, Li Huowang began flipping through the book.
Zuowang Dao's fortune, Zuowang Dao's westerly wind, Zuowang Dao's blank slate, Zuowang Dao, Zuowang Dao... Several pages in a row were all about Zuowang Dao. The news from Liu Zongyuan before was correct. The Monitors were really at odds with Zuowang Dao.
Although the rewards were all valuable, Li Huowang really didn't want to deal with those scammers.
There was a connection between the Three Yuan and Four Happiness, and they were all troublemakers. Killing one would only bring more trouble, just like what happened to Zhuge Yuan before.
"Ergew, didn't you say you wanted revenge against Zuowang Dao? Why don't you take this assignment?"
"I have already avenged that grudge at the cost of one eye. I killed the Zuowang Dao who killed the Elder."
After flipping through a few pages seriously, Li Huowang suddenly stopped. His finger slowly brushed over two characters written with cinnabar ink. "Ling Nie?"
And below this name was its reward: four hundred and thirty Yang Shou Dan and five years of pure Yang Shou.
He raised his head and looked at Zhuge Yuan standing beside Nangong. "Ling Nie? Is it of the Ling generation?"
"Li Xiong, it's not of the Ling generation, but the others are. Only it isn't." A trace of disgust appeared on Zhuge Yuan's face.
"Yes, it's indeed Ling Nie." Nangong took over the conversation. "But are you really planning to take on this assignment? Don't just covet the pure Yang Shou when dealing with it. Dealing with it is really not as easy as dealing with Zuowang Dao. At least it's safer."
"This Ling Nie is so dangerous? Where does it come from?"
"Dangerous? Well, it's definitely smaller than Xin Zhuo Xin Su Pan. Actually, whether it's easy to deal with this Ling Nie or not depends entirely on what it's attached to."
"If it's attached to a person, it's not too bad. At most, it's a crazy half-immortal. But if it's attached to some powerful evil spirit or something else, hehe, then it's really troublesome."
"Like some kind of strange parasite." Li Huowang began to ask Nangong about the details of Ling Nie.
But what was really confusing was that the things Ling Nie parasitized were different, and their abilities were completely different. Sometimes, their abilities were even completely opposite.
Looking at the various records about Ling Nie in the book, Li Huowang began to evaluate whether he could handle this situation with his current strength.
After pondering for a moment, Li Huowang finally decided to accept this assignment. With the power of Red, he was no longer the same Li Huowang as before. He might not be afraid of this Ling Nie.
Even if he couldn't defeat it, he could still escape.
Moreover, Ling Nie wasn't necessarily all that powerful. The book also recorded that a lucky monk encountered a Ling Nie attached to a dog's tail grass and got a big advantage.
"This one, I won't be picky." Li Huowang extended his finger and dipped it in the red ink, pressing it forcefully on the book.
"Alright, these are the areas where our spies found possible Ling Nie. You can go to all of them."
"I have to go find them?" Li Huowang reached out and took the map."Of course, do you think such a generous reward comes for free? However, now that you have your waist card, you can recruit more people to help you, which would lower the risk."
Li Huowang, however, had no intention of recruiting others like he did before. He took the map and headed out directly.
Recruiting one more person meant one more person to share the reward. If the reward for this task was divided, it wouldn't be enough to buy the relics.
After staying in the small courtyard of the capital city for only one night, Li Huowang, along with Li Sui and Bai Lingmiao, continued their journey.
He thought he could find the Ling Nie quickly, but to his surprise, the first two places turned out to be false leads. He couldn't find any trace of the Ling Nie.
A month and a half passed in the blink of an eye.
"Thump, thump, thump." Bai Lingmiao, holding a wooden stick, was beating Li Huowang's red robe on a large rock by the river.
After beating it for a while, Bai Lingmiao shook the robe in the rushing river water, then scrubbed it on the rock.
Without soap, this was the only way to get it somewhat clean.
After washing Li Huowang's clothes, she carefully washed her own. It was a beautiful dress that her senior brother Li had bought for her in the capital city.
She loved the dress.
After washing all the clothes clean, she put them in a wooden basin and stood up.
Bai Lingmiao, holding the wooden basin, picked up a bamboo pole as thick as a finger from the ground. She kept knocking with the bamboo pole as she walked towards the direction of the carriage.
