Chapter 159: Chapter 127 Family Treasure_2

Guo Yunshan lifted his head, staring intently at Zhou Qing, waiting for the latter’s reply.

In fact, if it were possible, he would rather not share the elixir with others.

But the problem is…

At present, Guo Yunshan is only at the beginner level of third-rate, having only cultivated two meridians. With such strength, he can barely move around in Jianghu.

Previously, he spoke of high aspirations and deep hatred, but those were just to satisfy his mouth.

Guo Yunshan knew clearly that with his own strength, returning to Xichuan would mean going to his death.

But as the family feud was not avenged yet and the clan awaited his restoration, how could he die so easily?

Thus, after careful consideration, at this moment, he had no choice but to find a trustworthy person with decent strength to escort him back to Xichuan.

At this moment, Zhou Qing was the only one who met this requirement.

First, he seemed to be devoted to the court and had no affection for the rebel Li Xiong. Secondly, after several months of acquaintance, Zhou Qing’s character and temperament had gained Guo Yunshan’s trust.

Lastly, both of them were at the third-rate cultivation level. One was slightly stronger, the other slightly weaker, but essentially, there was not much difference.

With this level of strength…

Guo Yunshan believed that after receiving the family treasure, he could quickly catch up and close the gap.

By that time, he wouldn’t have to worry about Zhou Qing’s intentions anymore.

Moreover, Divine Blood Elixirs were the foundation of many first-rate forces and were never spread outside.

Considering Zhou’s martial arts foundation, it’s only at the second-rate level.

With such a background, he probably only heard about the Divine Blood Variant’s information and has never actually come into contact with it. By the time it’s needed, Guo could give some weakened elixir to Zhou to create a pretext.

Anyway, even a weakened Divine Blood Elixir would still be a divine medicine to ordinary Jianghu people, and there is no need to worry about arousing suspicion.

In summary, under various guarantees, Guo Yunshan naturally hoped that Zhou Qing would accompany him back to Xichuan.

“Divine Blood Elixir?”

Upon hearing Guo Yunshan’s invitation, Zhou Qing’s eyes instantly became focused, the previous melancholy disappearing as his heart heated up.

Unlike Guo Yunshan’s wild guesses, Zhou had actually consumed Divine Blood Spirit Medicine.

It was a divine pill that could break through a meridian with just one dose. If the Guo family treasure really contained such divine pills and was willing to give him a few…

No, even three pills would be enough.

Breaking through to the second-rate realm would be no problem for him.

If he could use divine pills to break through meridians, even just three, it would save him at least twelve years of time.

This would undoubtedly be a great help for Zhou Qing’s revenge plan.

With this in mind, he stared at Guo Yunshan and said seriously, “You really can give me Divine Blood Elixir? You don’t need to deceive me, I’ve had Divine Blood Elixir before and know that it’s a divine medicine that can help people break through a meridian in one dose.

So let me ask you again, were there any falsehoods in what you just said?”

Guo Yunshan felt a bit nervous under Zhou Qing’s intense gaze, especially after hearing his words, and he suddenly realized he had underestimated his companion.

However, with deep hatred right in front of him, he didn’t have time to ponder too much.

Though Guo Yunshan did not know how many Divine Blood Elixirs were stored in the family’s treasury, he knew they would be enough to help breakthrough to the first-rate realm.

‘At worst, I’ll just give some elixirs to Zhou. Otherwise, I won’t be able to return to Xichuan, and the elixirs in the family treasury would only decay.’

It’s better to use them.

Even if the two of them end up dividing the elixirs, and neither can reach the first-rate level, having a second-rate strength is always better than the current third-rate.’

Having thought this through, Guo Yunshan no longer hesitated, held up three fingers, and swore to the heavens: “I swear on the name of my Guo family ancestors that if Zhou assists me in returning to Xichuan and opening the treasure…

Then I shall give him Divine Blood Elixir to help him break through to the second-rate.

If I break this oath, may I be struck by lightning and die horribly. May the Zhou family’s lineage be extinguished, and the incense be completely cut off.” This was indeed a poisonous oath.

With such a statement, even people who don’t believe in ghosts and spirits would hesitate when considering whether or not to break it.

Therefore, after hearing it, Zhou Qing felt reassured and nodded, saying, “Alright. Since you’ve said so, I’ll help you return to Xichuan this time.” However, despite saying this, he didnt completely trust Guo Yunshan.

Having wandered the Jianghu for two years, Zhou Qing had seen many insidious people and even experienced betrayal firsthand.

If not due for his current strength and some luck, he might not have made it to today.

So he decided in his heart…

After escorting Guo Yunshan back to Xichuan, he must leave some precautions in place.

For example, leave a letter detailing the reasons, find a person, and set a time. If he does not return by the agreed time, the letter should be sent directly to his Master.

‘With my Master’s first-rate strength, even if Guo Yunshan gets the family treasure and consumes the elixirs, increasing his power, he still won’t stand a chance against my Master.’

Zhou Qing had faith in the reliability of his Master.

He was confident that a small fry like Guo Yunshan, even if he broke through to the first-rate, would never be able to compete with the cunning old fox like his Master.

‘Besides, if it really comes down to that, the Divine Blood Elixir and Zhou family treasure would be the last gifts I give to my Master.’

Zhou Qing knew that by the time his Master needed to intervene, it would mean he had already met with misfortune..
