My Master Knows It All

”Alright, don’t be surprised. Quickly distribute the tentacles to me, let’s continue moving forward. There might be more Cleansing Poisonous Blood Trees ahead.” While urging Venerable Lin Feng, Cao Zhen raised his hand and effortlessly uprooted the entire tree, casually tossing it into the Heaven and Earth Ring.

The Cleansing Poisonous Blood Tree, when alive, roots itself deeply into the earth. However, as it dies, its roots rapidly retract, making it effortless to uproot completely.

Venerable Lin Feng was once again astonished by the other’s action. The trunks and roots of the Cleansing Poisonous Blood Tree are useless. Why does Zi Tie want to carry these things?

Could it be that Zi Tie knows their usage?

Though curious, she didn’t ask directly and continued flying forward with him. Soon, their sight fell upon another Cleansing Poisonous Blood Tree.

Encountering two in succession clearly indicated there are many Cleansing Poisonous Blood Trees within the ruins!

Much like before, Cao Zhen advanced to attract the Cleansing Poisonous Blood Tree’s attacks, while Venerable Lin Feng was responsible for cutting off the tree’s tentacles.

Venerable Lin Feng, eager to eliminate the Cleansing Poisonous Blood Tree before, attacked hastily without observing her ally. Now that she looked, she finally understood why he wasn’t poisoned much!

The poisonous thorns of the Cleansing Poisonous Blood Tree hadn’t penetrated Zi Tie’s body. How could Zi Tie be severely poisoned!

She knew Zi Tie’s physical body was formidable, but she never imagined it was so robust that even thorns couldn’t pierce it. What else could they do!

Cao Zhen, as before, took away the trunks and roots of the Cleansing Poisonous Blood Tree.

As they continued forward, every certain distance, they would see a Cleansing Poisonous Blood Tree.

Every time, Cao Zhen would take away the trunks and roots. After repeated instances, Venerable Lin Feng also started taking the trunks and roots. But just as she tossed the trunk of a Cleansing Poisonous Blood Tree into her Heaven and Earth Ring, Zi Tie’s heavy and displeased voice rang out.

”Lin Feng, what are you doing with its trunk?”

Venerable Lin Feng, in a matter-of-fact manner, said, ”Nothing much. I saw you taking it, so I followed suit. After all, the Blood Trees were killed by both of us. You’ve been taking trunks all along, so I’m just sharing a bit. Is there a problem?”

”Of course there’s a problem!” Cao Zhen replied with displeasure, ”When I didn’t take these trunks and roots, you treated them as useless waste.

If not for me, you wouldn’t have touched these things. Besides, you don’t know their purpose. What are you taking them for?

So, I believe it’s better to give them to me. Besides, they’re of no use to you.”

”True, they’re of no use. But clearly, these trunks and roots of the Blood Tree are valuable. We’ve already divided the tentacles equally, and now you’re taking all the roots and trunks. That’s a bit unfair, isn’t it?”

”So what?” Cao Zhen raised an eyebrow and looked fiercely at Venerable Lin Feng, asking, ”What do you want to do?”

”Nothing much,” Venerable Lin Feng said, pointing to the recently severed tentacles, ”I’ll take sixty percent of these tentacles and you take forty percent. How about that?”

She believed her proposal wasn’t excessive since it was obvious that the trunks and roots were valuable.

So wanting a bit more wasn’t unreasonable.

”No deal,” Cao Zhen replied coldly, looking at Venerable Lin Feng, ”All these trunks and roots belong to me, and the tentacles are still split equally. Agree and we’ll continue to cooperate; disagree, and we part ways.”

Whether tentacles, trunks, or roots, they all had great use to him. Now, splitting the tentacles equally with Venerable Lin Feng felt painful, to say nothing of her taking an additional ten percent.

The main point was, initially, it was agreed to split fifty-fifty.

Additionally, Venerable Lin Feng never cared for the trunks and roots. Had he not taken them, Venerable Lin Feng would have left them on the ground.

If earlier, Venerable Lin Feng knew the importance of the trunks and roots, he wouldn’t have minded a fifty-fifty split of those as well, since they initially agreed on that.

The issue is, Venerable Lin Feng didn’t know the purpose of the trunks and roots. She only assumed they were valuable because he took them, and asking for more was excessive.

Moreover, he could easily eliminate these Cleansing Poisonous Blood Trees without Venerable Lin Feng. The Cleansing Poisonous Blood Trees are resistant to poison, but not to spells. He could use spells to attack.

However, for Venerable Lin Feng, while she could sever the Blood Tree’s tentacles, she couldn’t withstand the tree’s attacks.

By cooperating with him, Venerable Lin Feng was already enjoying great benefits, and yet she wanted even more.

Indeed, whether human or demon, desires are boundless.

Venerable Lin Feng watched as Zi Tie walked steadily forward, stunned. She truly didn’t expect him to refuse so bluntly.

Does this Zi Tie not want the Cleansing Poisonous Blood Trees ahead?

Impossible!

Based on the way he refused, he clearly values these Blood Trees highly. So, does he have other means to eliminate the Blood Trees by himself? Or is he sure that I have no choice but to cooperate with him?

If it were her usual temperament and in a different situation, she might really have decided not to cooperate.

But those are Cleansing Poisonous Blood Trees! Who knows how many more Blood Trees are ahead! Not cooperating with him would mean she’d only manage to get one or two more Blood Trees, resulting in a significant loss.
