Chapter 4024 News About The Spiritual Tree

"By the way, how's everything going with the Spiritual River?"

the woman clad in purple curiously asked.

"It's still very calm.

However, I still can't get close to it and I'm stuck looking at it from afar.

Seems like I have to become the chief first and go through the baptism in the ancestral temple before I get the qualifications to enter the Spiritual River,"

sighed the young man.

"Everyone says that only the chief of the spiritual race can enter the river, no one else is allowed.

Seems like it's true,"

she murmured softly.

"Yes.

What's most annoying is that we can't just break into it by force.

Otherwise, it'll self-destruct and everything in it will vanish as well,"

the man groaned.

"Alas, I feel terribly guilty for causing you so much trouble. I'm just a humble woman, after all. Not once did I expect that my spiritual soul would be hurt so badly that I'd need the spiritual lotus to heal me. However, it only exists in the Spiritual River.

You wouldn't have to try so hard to fight in order to be the chief otherwise.

We could have left together and lived a simple but happy life. That's the happiest ending I can imagine."

Unspeakable sadness and melancholy darkened the woman's voice.

"Don't worry, Ariana. I'll do anything to become the chief. And then I'll go to the Spiritual River and fetch the spiritual lotus for you. I'll make sure you'll recover.

Besides, I, Kerwin, am the eldest prince who's supposed to be the next chief anyway. I won't let anyone else get it!

Humph! I'm destined to be the next chief!

Anyone who tries to get in my way will die!"

As the prince spoke, a hint of cruelty flashed through his eyes.

"Ha-ha! My prince, what I like most is how you never give up. You're so charming that I just can't resist you. Come here, darling. Let's do something more interesting..."

Every word that left Ariana's lips was full of temptation. As she strode closer to Kerwin, her scent filled the air.

Since Kerwin had long been deeply attracted to her, how could he resist it when she was throwing herself into his embrace? He immediately stepped closer to her and tugged her in his arms.

"Ha-ha!"

Sweet laughter left Ariana's lips.

At that moment, within a secret chamber in Rondo's mansion, Austin was silently sitting with his legs crossed.

During this time, he was busy practi

e did, we'll gain unimaginable benefits!

If we can get our hands on it, it'll be a walk in the park to become the Spirit Cosmos's ruler.

No matter what method we use, we must find out its whereabouts even if it meant arresting Gio and torturing the answer out of him!"

It was impossible for Payne to remain calm in the face of the possibility of getting his hands on such a valuable treasure. In a flash, he left his room and appeared in front of Rondo, roaring to meet Austin as soon as possible.

"That's right.

Elder Payne, I must get the spiritual tree!

Ha-ha! Lady Luck must be smiling down on me!

In this chaotic era, I suddenly met Gio, and he happened to know the spiritual tree's whereabouts!

Seems like I'm the chosen one who would find the spiritual tree!

Once I get it, I'll soar higher than everyone else and dominate the Spirit Cosmos!"

Loud laughter burst out of Rondo as he imagined his future as the chief of the spiritual race.

"Stay calm, Your Highness. We must treat Gio politely first.

He's rather powerful and there's no need to cut ties with him yet. We can just get his help to make you the chief first.

Afterwards, we'll control him and make him lead us to the spiritual tree.

In other words, our goal is to become the chief and then go find the spiritual tree,"

Payne instructed, living up to his reputation as a sly old fox. Although he was very excited, he quickly regained his sanity and figured out what they should do.

"You're right. Let's do your plan.

Let's go meet with Gio now!"

Rondo nodded in agreement.
