Mysteries of Immortal Puppet Master-Chapter 708 - 219: Gold Element Lung Temple

Chapter 708 -219: Gold Element Lung Temple

Today is the agreed day.

The Ten-Thousand-Li Travelling Dragon passes through the void, arriving near the National Front Line Camp of Liangzhu Country.

Very soon, Ning Zhuo contacted Liu Er.

“Strategist, we meet again!” Liu Er, seeing Ning Zhuo again, enthusiastically grasped his arm, eyes misting with emotion.

“Since the battle with the Dual Demons, I’ve missed you day and night. Seeing you today, I notice you’ve lost some weight. Please, take care of your health, strategist.”

Ning Zhuo nodded, clasping Liu Er’s arm with both hands, moved: “General’s concern is overwhelming for someone like me! Meeting you in Liangzhu Country is my luck and fortune.”

“Here are two hundred thousand Mid Grade Spirit Stones in this bag, for the General, as military funds!”

Liu Er’s spirits instantly lifted as he received the bag filled with Spirit Stones: “Without the strategist’s support, the Three Generals Camp would have long collapsed!”

Ning Zhuo said: “Without the aid of the Three Generals Camp and the three generals, I wouldn’t have come this far either.”

Liu Er also took out a Storage Bag: “This is the reward we earned from our military exploits. Zhao Xi initially wanted to hinder the strategist, as he has a problem with you not returning to the camp…”

Liu Er detailed Zhao Xi’s obstructions in a very tactful manner, subtly highlighting his own contributions to Ning Zhuo.

Ning Zhuo took it to heart and thanked Liu Er: “Thank you, General, for convincing Zhao Xi at critical moments, thus saving me much trouble.”

This gratitude indeed came from Ning Zhuo’s heart.

Liu Er chuckled, indicating their close relationship: “Aren’t we comrades? If I don’t support you, then who else?”

Liu Er inquired: “Strategist, will you no longer return to the camp?”

Ning Zhuo sighed slightly and nodded: “This battle with the Dual Demons was extremely perilous, exposing my trump cards, arousing Zhao Xi’s covetousness.”

“But I cannot guarantee that I can replicate my previous success in the next battle.”

“Furthermore, in the face of the Dual Demons, my best option was to flee prematurely!”

“Returning to the camp is impossible. If I return, I might be detained, or even killed for my treasures.”

“After all, I am but a foreigner.”

Ning Zhuo looked up and sighed deeply.

His background and cultivation level were still too modest; the value he demonstrated was too high, completely disrupting previous collaborations. freёnovelkiss.com

Liu Er greatly approved of Ning Zhuo’s decision and nodded, sighing: “Strategist, your current reputation has spread throughout the entire National Front Line Camp. Given time, it will surely resound nationwide!”

“Even, your fame might spread to other countries. After all, the Dual Demons are renowned across multiple nations.”

“To confront two Nascent Soul stage experts with Foundation Establishment Cultivation is an unprecedented feat in years.”

Ning Zhuo nodded slightly.

“Thus, after this battle, I should travel the world under an assumed name.”

For Ning Zhuo, he was pleased with the growth of his reputation.

The greater his fame, the better he could navigate the Righteous Path.

Moreover, such achievements on the battlefield are hard to conceal. The difficulty in covering up such feats is exceedingly high!

After a short conversation, Ning Zhuo bid farewell to Liu Er.

Watching the Ten-Thousand-Li Travelling Dragon vanish into the void, Liu Er stood there for a long time, before finally sighing and turning away.

The Ten-Thousand-Li Travelling Dragon had already been fully exposed to Liu Guanzhang in the previous Dual Demons battle.

Liu Er wasn’t surprised, just lamented his own lack of discernment: “Ning Zhuo has such combat power and hidden assets, no wonder the Ning Family lets him roam the world.”

“A noble family’s disciple is indeed different from the likes of us!”

Ning Zhuo, aboard the Mechanical Cabin, took out the items from the Storage Bag to examine.

He exchanged for three Golden Cores, belonging to Fire, Water, and Earth elements respectively.

Eighteen pieces of National Power Bricks.

And two Protective Dharma Treasures: a Golden Light Necklace and a Green-White Jade Ring.

However, the Nascent Soul that Sun Ning and Sun Lingtong had hoped for, was not acquired.

In the Jade Slip specially given by Zhao Xi to Ning Zhuo, he hinted that obtaining a Nascent Soul through military exploits was not impossible, but required a personal transaction!

After all, such dealings, if exposed, would severely impact official reputation, affecting Zhao Xi’s personal future.

Zhao Xi’s proposal for a private, secret transaction was indeed reasonable.

But Sun Ning and Sun Lingtong both sighed in unison.

Sun Lingtong bluntly said: “Little Zhuo, don’t trust Zhao Xi. He is no longer reliable!”

Ning Zhuo nodded, perceiving Zhao Xi’s deeper intentions, and feared that meeting Zhao Xi in person might result in being entrapped, losing his freedom.

Not acquiring the Nascent Soul was a considerable regret.

Out of the three Golden Cores, Ning Zhuo chose an Earth-element Golden Core and placed it into the Five Elements Golden Core Roulette.

He donned the Iron Han Armor, taking to the skies for another test flight.

Indeed, with the continuous supply of the Golden Core, mana was extremely abundant, and the Iron Han Armor flew wildly, leaving a long trail of Li Fire in the sky.

Ning Zhuo enjoyed the thrill of speeding through the air, which made Sun Lingtong envious and shout repeatedly: “Let me try, let me try!”

“Hey, you’ve played with it for quite a while.”

“Don’t delay important matters, Little Zhuo, let me play!”

Ning Zhuo, urged repeatedly, reluctantly exited the Mechanical Battle Armor and handed it to Sun Lingtong.

Sun Lingtong, piloting the Iron Han Armor, flew in bizarre, erratic patterns in the sky, exclaiming with excitement.

Ning Zhuo then took out the Mechanical Golden Swallow and tried commanding a large group, making them fly around the sky.

Sun Lingtong became somewhat lost in the fun, and Ning Zhuo, continuously urging him, finally took back the Iron Han Armor.
