It was night time.

In the sky, Hua You Du hesitated before she finally decided to stop Lin gXIan.

“Hey, I know where you can find fragments like that. There are more than one. Do you want them?”

Ling Xian turned around abruptly and stared straight through Hua You Du and said in a quiet voice, “You mean it?”

Realizing that Ling Xian was wavering, Hua You Du had a look of proudness, “Do not fear. I am not lying to you. Just tell me, do you want them or not?”

“Of course I do.”

Ling Xian admitted. The temptation the Wheel of the Sixth Samsara held against him was intense. Most people in the Taoism community cannot resist. He was no exception. But he knew that today’s event was not that simply, “Even though we haven’t known each other for that long, I can tell that you are a woman who loves what’s valuable. You even dared to provoke a completion levelled cultivator. I am curious. If you already know the fragments are of value, why are you telling me about them?”

“Hmmph, you think I want to tell you?”

Hua You Du snickered. The way she stared at Ling Xian was complex, “If I could get in there, why would I tell you this information?”

“I see.”

Ling Xian grinned. He had been manipulating his Qi to test and observe Hua You Du. When she said this, she had no physical abnormalities. Though this didn’t mean she was completely telling the truth, she was mostly likely saying the truth.

So he chose to trust her.

What could he do? The temptation of the Wheel of the Sixth Samara was far too intense, worthy enough for him to take a risk. But before he took a risk, he needed to find out everything he could.

“Tell me, what kind of place is it? And what kind of danger does it involve?” Ling Xian inquired.

“You sure are being careful.”

Hua You Du mumbled to herself unwillingly. But she wanted to avenge herself and steal some treasures from her master. “It’s a small scaled treasure hut. But prohibition spells are placed on it and I cannot enter it.”

Hearing this, Ling Xian frowned. He didn’t care much about the prohibition spells. With his cultivation level, normal prohibition spells are nothing against him. He cared about the words “small scaled treasure hut”.

Under a normal circumstance, a storage pouch was enough. Only those with high statuses would have treasure huts. This meant the place Hua You Du said was a place of political power.

Noticing Ling Xian’s frown, Hua You Du raised an eyebrow. She realized something and quickly explained, “Don’t worry. I promise you that it is no trouble. If we move fast, nobody will notice.”

“The way you are describing this is strange.” Ling Xian frowned, “You better make it clear. Who owns this small scaled treasure hut?”

“I…”

Hua You Du hesitated and said between her teeth, “Alright. To tell you the truth, it is an individual’s treasure hut. The person who lied to me about my pile of garbage.”

“I see.” Ling Xian chuckled, now understand that Hua You Du was avenging that person. The questions he had disappeared.

“Now you understand.” Hua You Du clenched her teeth and shouted in anger, “He lied to me with a pile of trash. I am going to raid his treasure hut!”

Hearing the aggression in her tone, Ling Xian shook his head, “That person sure had some bad luck to have run into someone like you.”

“Hmmh, that person lied to me first. There were so many treasures but none were given to me.” Hua You Du coldly hissed and shifted her gaze to Ling Xian, “I have told you the situation. You should tell me now, do you agree to this or no.”

“Why wouldn’t I?”

Ling Xian mischievously smiled, “Such a good opportunity. If I missed it, it would be a pity.”

Even though there are still many uncertainties regarding this, against the temptation of the Wheel of the Sixth Samara, nobody would choose to just do nothing. Since he already possessed two fragments, he could not reject.

“Very good. Then let us hurry and move along.” Hua You Du was ecstatic. Thinking about the way her Master going delirious made her grin ear to ear.

“Wait a minute. Since we agreed to partnership, then we have to settle this beforehand. How are we going to divide the treasures?” Ling Xian smiled.

“How to divide?”

Hua You Du froze. All she thought about was avenging herself but never thought about the details. Now that Ling Xian mentioned it, she was nervous.

Ling Xian shook his head and laughed, “You didn’t even think about this. Aren’t afraid that I would take the entire treasure hut for myself?”

“I…”

Hua You Du was speechless, somewhat regretful. To her, Ling Xian was a powerhouse that was impossible to read. To partner up with someone like that, how could she not feel nervous and regretful?”

“What an interesting woman you are.” Ling Xian chuckled, “Don’t worry. I just want the fragments. You can have everything else.”

“You mean that?” Hua You Du’s eyes brightened, surprised at the way Ling Xian wanted to execute this.

After all, in the Taoism community, other than innate moral standards, there are no rules. Thus, the powerhouses who were high above others could always take advantage of the weak.

But Ling Xian, as a powerhouse, did not want to take everything for himself. On the contrary, he suggested this sharing method. This proved his character.

In a cold cruel Taoism community, how different was he?

“Don’t worry. I’m not going to bite back my words like you did.” Ling Xian muttered.

Hua You Du looked at Ling Xian with deep emotions, “Okay, let us move.”

“Wait a second.”

Smiling, Ling Xian appeared before Yan Ning Zhi in a flash, “Ning Zhi, I have something to attend to. You go back to the Yan Clan first.”

“Where are you going?” Yan Ning Zhi frowned, her eyes flashing with worry.

“To a place, to take some stuff.” Ling Xian beamed, “Do not worry. You know my capabilities. Nothing bad will happen.”

“I…”

Yan Ning Zhi was somewhat unwilling. But seeing that Ling Xian was determined, she shook her head helplessly, “Then, come back soon. I will wait for you at the Yan Clan.”

Ling Xian nodded and leapt into the air. He landed beside Hua You Du, “Okay, let us go.”

“I sure hope that person isn’t there right now.” Hua You Du mumbled and began to move in the north west direction.

“I sure hope the fragments are really there.”

Ling Xian’s eyes flashed with passion, hoping that he would be able to acquire more fragments soon. And hoping that one day, he would be able to collect all the fragments and repair the immeasurably valuable Wheel of the Sixth Samsara!
