91: Reward Distribution
Xun Xiuyuan did not waste time and said, "My compensation doesn't matter. I want to exchange it for Bai Xiaoou's cultivation resources. She is still a fourth-rank martial artist."
Li Jun readily agreed, "Alright, we will give her enough resources. Cultivating to the Immaculate Realm won't be a problem."
In fact, Xun Xiuyuan had many resources, but his mother and maternal grandfather also needed to cultivate, and with more people, it naturally wasn't enough. Coupled with the upgrade of the lottery system, low-tier items were becoming increasingly rare, which is why he made this request.
Xiuyuan took out the first item: "This is a fragment of the Golden Light Wheel, a reward from the third level of the Ling Tian Pagoda, containing a portion of the Law of Metal."
Li Jun's eyes lit up. Although he had a profound understanding of the Law of Space, he enjoyed artifact refining and knew a little about the Law of Metal. This fragment might help verify his many years of conjectures.
"Xun Xiuyuan! Very good. This Golden Light Wheel fragment is definitely one of the best rewards from the third level, because the previous third-level Ling Tian Pagoda rewards were mostly weapons and equipment that did not contain laws. What about the others?"
Xun Xiuyuan then took out a broken Vajra: "This is the Vajra, the reward from the fourth level, containing the Law of Strength."
Zheng family's Old Ancestor's eyes lit up. He was a cultivator who primarily focused on strength. Although he was also trying to comprehend the Law of Space, he always felt it was difficult to grasp.
This Vajra would definitely be of great help for him to comprehend the Law of Strength, as it was quite compatible with him.
After Xun Xiuyuan finished speaking, he immediately took out a spear: "This is the Flame Spear, the reward from the fifth level, containing the Law of Fire."
He then added, "The reward for the sixth level is a skill, which cannot be taken out of the Ling Tian Pagoda. I have already cultivated it."
Actually, the reward for the sixth level was the wu hook, but Xun Xiuyuan deliberately didn't take it out because the wu hook was very suitable for him, and he wouldn't have a good excuse to get it back if he showed it.
Finally, Xun Xiuyuan pulled out a long spear: "This is the Space Rending Spear, the reward from the seventh level, containing the Way of Space."
After the last weapon was taken out, everyone's eyes lit up, because the Law of Space was very clear in this world, while other laws were difficult to comprehend. Almost everyone present had comprehended the Law of Space, so who wouldn't be tempted by a weapon containing the Law of Space?
Xun Xiuyuan placed all four items on the huge round table in the hall, visible to everyone.
At this moment, Wang Yonghua spoke, "Xun Xiuyuan, you say the reward for the sixth level is a skill, but is it really? I want to search your spatial ring."
Xun Xiuyuan's impression of the Wang family was already at rock bottom. This old scoundrel was still jumping around here. Since you're like this, don't blame me.
Xun Xiuyuan turned to Wen Ruyu and said, "Sister Wen, there's also the corpse of Zheng Xianlun from Flying Dragon City in my spatial ring."
Upon hearing Zheng Xianlun's name, Wen Ruyu's eyes sharpened. Zheng Xianlun was indeed Flying Dragon City's seeded contestant, and his strength was comparable to Li Feihong's.
A sturdy middle-aged man nearby stood up and looked at Xun Xiuyuan. This person was Zheng Yuanxing, the Old Ancestor of the Zheng family from Flying Dragon City.
Zheng Yuanxing looked at Xun Xiuyuan sharply and asked, "Explain yourself clearly. How did Zheng Xianlun's corpse end up in your hands?"
After Zheng Yuanxing finished speaking, he added, "I am Zheng Yuanxing, the Old Ancestor of the Zheng family."
Xun Xiuyuan didn't care if Zheng Xianlun was killed by Alien Beasts or something else; he directly blamed everything on the Wang family, certain that he couldn't be wrong.
"Senior Zheng, I encountered Zheng Xianlun before he died. He was alone, being chased by sixteen disciples of the Wang family. Before he died, he told me. He said he was Zheng Xianlun of Flying Dragon City. He also told me that the people of the Wang family colluded with Alien Beasts, and that Wang family disciples, along with hundreds of Shadow Demons and other Alien Beasts, ambushed them. Although he escaped, his meridians were shattered, and with pursuers behind him, he had no time to heal. So, by the time he met me, he was beyond salvation."
Xun Xiuyuan said, looking at Zheng Yuanxing.
At this moment, Wang Yonghua, hearing Xun Xiuyuan's words, trembled and then composed himself: "Xun Xiuyuan, is that really necessary? I just want to check your spatial ring, and you're pinning such a huge accusation on our Wang family?"
Xun Xiuyuan sneered, "You know what you did. The disciples of the Wang family later colluded with Alien Beasts to ambush the remaining humans at the tunnel entrance. Otherwise, at least a hundred more humans would have returned."
Wang Yonghua sneered, "You say my Wang family disciples colluded with the Alien Beast Clan, do you have any evidence?"
Xun Xiuyuan said, "Li Feihong of the Li family can testify to everything I've said."
Xie An had already believed Xun Xiuyuan's words and directly stood up, intentionally sitting behind Wang Yonghua.
Although Wang Yonghua didn't look, he knew Xie An had already sat behind him. He turned and roared, "Xie An, what do you mean? Are you planning to execute me on the spot after the Li family people come to testify?"
Xie An shook his head, "No, there's a draft over there. I'm afraid of the cold."
Wang Yonghua was almost choked to death by Xie An's "I'm afraid of the cold." You, a peak Shattering Void Realm expert, saying you're afraid of the cold? If you're going to make an excuse, can you at least make a plausible one?
Just then, Li Feihong, having received Li Jun's sound transmission, arrived in the hall. After hearing Li Jun's inquiry, he nodded and said, "The Wang family disciples in the ruins were indeed very suspicious. The possibility of them colluding with Alien Beasts is as high as ninety percent."
Li Jun looked at Wang Yonghua again and said in a deep voice, "Old Wang, you'd best give everyone a reasonable explanation."
Seeing Li Feihong of the Li family testify, Wang Yonghua no longer tried to hold out. Those disciples were dead anyway, with no one to corroborate.
"Li Feihong, did the Wang family disciples in the ruins really collude with Alien Beasts?" Wang Yonghua did not answer Li Jun's question, only asked Li Feihong again.
Li Feihong nodded in affirmation.
"My Wang family truly has no face to meet our ancestors! How could such unfilial descendants appear?" Wang Yonghua cried out to the heavens, his acting skills perfect.
Finally, Wang Yonghua said to Wen Ruyu and Zheng Yuanxing, "Sister Wen! Brother Zheng! Regarding Flying Dragon City's losses in the ruins, my Wang family will definitely compensate you and ensure your satisfaction."
Seeing Wang Yonghua's attitude at this moment, Zheng Yuanxing and Wen Ruyu, who were filled with anger, couldn't express it and could only sit down in a huff.
Xie An then sent a sound transmission to Li Jun, describing Wang Yonghua's lackluster performance during the battle with the Alien Beasts.
Li Jun, however, comforted Xie An, saying, "Perhaps it's his conflict with Xun Xiuyuan that made him unwilling to exert himself. Now that Old Chen is gone, our high-end combat strength has suffered greatly. Let's stabilize things first; I will investigate secretly."
Xie An nodded slightly.
Li Jun said, "Xun Xiuyuan, this matter is probably due to the Wang family disciples. Since they have already died in battle in the ruins, let's not discuss it for now."
After speaking to Xun Xiuyuan, he scanned the room and then continued, "I am very interested in the Golden Light Wheel fragment, so I will take it. The Law of Space in the Space Rending Spear is useful to everyone, so let's distribute it based on the size of contributions."
Wen Ruyu immediately said, "Regarding contributions, I think it goes without saying that Qianlong City's contribution is the greatest, there's no doubt about it."
After Wen Ruyu finished speaking, everyone nodded in agreement, except for Wang Yonghua.
Li Jun, seeing this, said, "Old Xie, this Space Rending Spear containing the power of space is yours. As for you and the pretty boy, how you divide it is your own business."
Li Jun continued, "The Flame Spear contains the Way of Fire. In fact, everyone wants to comprehend it, but since Old Chen died in battle this time, I want the Flame Spear to be bestowed solely upon Chen Xuanfeng of the Chen family. As for how you acquire it for comprehension later, you can discuss it with the Chen family."
Xie An interjected at this point, "Chen Xuanfeng discussed with me privately earlier, wanting to relocate the Chen family to Qianlong City. Since everyone is here today, let's vote on it."
After Xie An finished speaking, he immediately stated his position: "I agree!"
Li Jun recalled Chen Yuan's sound transmission before his death and was the second to speak: "I agree!"
