Fantasy: I'll do the hacking, and you'll suffer the side effects!

172: Brothers gather together! The treasure of Zhetian!“It’s really you?” Wu De rubbed his eyes, carefully scrutinizing the person’s face.

Even from a great distance, across the vast sea, he could still sense that this was the brother he had longed for day and night.

With sword-like brows and star-like eyes, his demeanor exuded an otherworldly Aura, like a banished immortal. Was there anyone else like him in the world?

“You see me and don’t even come to pay your respects, Fatty, what great authority you have!” the God-Slaying Stone said, displeased.

“The Stone is here too?!” Wu De’s eyes lit up. Gazing at Qin Han’s smiling face, his eyes welled up with tears.

Before this, he had long been accustomed to being a lone wolf, never associating with others.

At most, he would conduct transactions, collect money for services, and help find treasures.

A gentleman judges by actions, not by heart. Wu De considered himself not to be a good person, but he valued loyalty greatly.

He had originally thought that Qin Han had perished in the Ancient Green City Secret Realm, and he had mourned for him for a long time because of it.

After this trip to the Taigu Divine Nest, he had even planned to erect a monument for Qin Han in the Heavenly Yang Que.

But he never expected to meet him here!

“Young Master Yan, there’s an old acquaintance of this Daoist over there. I’ll be right back,” Wu De called out before diving into the sea and swimming desperately towards them.

Yan Taiyin merely glanced over and then ignored him. He was currently leading a group of Martial Artists to resist the Sea Demons, attempting to break through the encirclement.

Now that the Taigu Divine Nest had been found, Wu De’s usefulness had plummeted, and he had no time to worry about what the latter was doing at this moment.

Soon, Wu De struggled to climb onto the Chan Palace Mysterious Sect’s large ship, ignoring the surprised expressions of the female Disciples around him, and tearfully embraced Qin Han.

“Damn it, why didn’t you come find me first? This Daoist has missed you so much,” Wu De cried, tears streaming down his face.

“Dead Fatty, you’re only thinking about finding treasures. You probably threw us to the back of your mind long ago, didn’t you?” the God-Slaying Stone didn’t believe a single word he said.

“Nonsense, do you think I made a deal with Yan Taiyin for money? I wanted them to send people to find you and Brother Chu,” Wu De said.

“You make it sound so real,” the God-Slaying Stone muttered.

Wu De’s mood was naturally excellent upon reuniting with his old friend, and the previous gloom vanished.

“You haven’t suffered any grievances during this time, have you?” Qin Han asked with a smile.

Upon hearing these words, Wu De’s nose tingled again. He fought back tears and shook his head, saying, “As soon as I landed, I ran into people from the Senluo Divine Kingdom. They took a liking to my Dragon Seeking Ruler technique and introduced me to Yan Taiyin.”

“After knowing this Daoist’s abilities, that guy treated me as an honored guest and made a deal with this Daoist.”

“I would help them find Golden Scale, and they would help me find people.”

“How did finding Golden Scale lead you here?” Qin Han asked curiously.

“The Dragon Seeking Ruler spat out nine-star Dragon Pearls. This is a Heaven-Defying Opportunity I’ve never seen before. This Daoist calculated with his fingers, and both Golden Scale and the great tomb are together,” Wu De said.

“You mean the great tomb is the Taigu Divine Nest, and Golden Scale is inside?” Qin Han’s heart stirred.

“That’s right, the Dragon Seeking Ruler won’t lie, and I also have the nine-star Dragon Pearls, which can be used to open the entrance to the nest,” Wu De nodded heavily.

“It seems Luo Mou covets more than just the Kunpeng Precious Technique,” a glint flashed in Qin Han’s eyes.

Wu De felt Qin Han’s increasingly powerful Aura and said in surprise, “No matter what, we brothers are reunited.”

“What about Chu Jiangnian? Is there any news of him?” Qin Han asked.

“No, we scattered after coming out of the passage. The Stone was captured by people from the Zhe Tian Divine Dynasty, this Daoist was invited by the Senluo Divine Kingdom, but Chu Jiangnian is nowhere to be found,” Wu De explained.

“Haven’t found him?” Qin Han frowned.

Golden Scale Que was too vast, and the Martial Artists here had different temperaments than those in Heavenly Yang Que. That Chu Jiangnian was stubborn and could easily offend people.

“Let’s deal with the current matter first, then go look for him,” Qin Han said.

“This Daoist thinks so too. Whether he lives or dies, it’s all up to fate,” Wu De sighed.

At this moment, he noticed two graceful figures standing behind Qin Han, one of whom was the famous Xuan Nu of the Toad Palace.

The other wore coarse cloth clothes and a veil, making her true appearance unclear.

“These two are…”

“I forgot to introduce them. This is my maidservant, Zhe Yunli, and this is Xuan Nu of the Toad Palace,” Qin Han said.

Upon hearing the words ‘maidservant,’ Zhe Yunli let out a dissatisfied hum.

Xuan Nu of the Toad Palace, on the other hand, bowed slightly in greeting.

“So it’s the Twin Immortals of Golden Scale Que, a pleasure to meet you,” Wu De said, cupping his fists.

Then, recalling Zhe Yunli’s terrifying actions, he leaned close to Qin Han’s ear and whispered, “Aren’t you afraid of retaliation from the Zhe Tian Divine Dynasty?”

“Afraid of what? When the time comes, the deed will be done, and they’ll have to accept it whether they want to or not,” Qin Han said with an indifferent smile.

“Your guts are as big as ever,” Wu De secretly gave Qin Han a thumbs up.

“Young Master Qin, the Sea Demons have surrounded us. How should we break through next?” Xuan Nu of the Toad Palace asked.

Her combat strength was not among the top tier of Prodigies in Golden Scale Que, far behind Zhe Changsheng and Yan Taiyin.

But she could enhance the combat power of Martial Artists, much like a healer in a game.

After seeing Qin Han’s unparalleled combat strength, she thought of cooperating with him to break through the blockade together.

“Wait!”

“Wait for what?” Xuan Nu of the Toad Palace asked, puzzled.

“The Zhe Tian Divine Dynasty and the Senluo Divine Kingdom are more anxious than you and I. We only need to follow behind them and clean up some stragglers.”

After he finished speaking, an Old Servant beside Zhe Changsheng took out a beast horn and blew it, producing a wailing sound.

The sound was like thunder, instantly shattering countless blue runes and the Sea Demons along with them.

This beast horn was terrifyingly powerful. Its sound was like the roar of a Heavenly God, piercing through the blockade and instantly opening a passage.

“Zhe Tian Forbidden Artifact?” Xuan Nu of the Toad Palace was slightly startled.

“I didn’t expect Zhe Changsheng to have such a level of treasure. It’s just what I wanted,” Qin Han grinned, immediately telling the person steering the large ship to follow.

After escaping a considerable distance, everyone’s state of mind finally calmed down. They felt that this sea area was incredibly strange.

There was a Golden Crow overhead, and countless sinister beings in the sea, all wanting to kill the invaders.

“This should be a dimensional space of the Endless Sea. The Taotie died here, and its corpse nourished countless fierce creatures,” Wu De speculated.

“Even the ancient Great Fiend died here. Could there have been a terrifying battle here?” the God-Slaying Stone recalled the Divine Garden, secretly alarmed.

Suddenly, the seawater churned violently, and the sound of horse hooves came from afar, like thousands of troops and horses galloping past, their murderous Aura shaking all directions.

“That is…”

Everyone looked up and saw a large horse, burning with black flames all over, galloping across the sea, as if it were treading not on the sea, but on solid ground.

On its back sat a None, clad in black armor, with an overwhelming Aura. It held a black long halberd, which cut grooves in the sea as it moved.

“What in the world is this thing now?” Everyone was greatly alarmed.

They had already encountered two waves of attacks, and the assailants were all malevolent and terrifying beings from ancient times.
