Checking in for 100,000 Years

Chapter 1190: Chapter 1190: White Paper Lantern

Luo Li’s pupils shrank, and she spat in a rather annoyed manner: ”You two Life and Death Realm elders, are you trying to bully me, a small Destiny Realm cultivator?”

”Little girl, what nonsense are you talking about? With our status, how could we possibly bully you?”

The black-faced man panicked inwardly, afraid that Luo Li would cut the ring with the sword, so he quickly denied it.

”This Nine Turn Spirit Blood Pill... if I’m not mistaken, it’s supposed to be the supreme spiritual medicine for Demon Clan cultivators to temper their bodies. As a human cultivator, what use do I have for it?”

Luo Li shook her head, her face full of teasing expression as she spoke.

Black-faced man: ”...”

Round-faced man: ”...”

Even the middle-aged man from the Sa Niang Clan was stunned at this moment and couldn’t say a word.

This little girl is just too cunning.

Nine Turn Spirit Blood Pill, although not much useful for human cultivators, it isn’t completely useless either.

Yet this little girl doesn’t seem to appreciate it at all.

”Hehe...”

Luo Li smiled triumphantly, returned the Nine Turn Spirit Blood Pill to the storage ring, and grabbed something else from inside.

The pill seems not to be the focus of the Ice and Fire Wolf Clan.

So this time, Luo Li took out the lowest quality artifact from the ring.

A lower-grade Earth Level sword.

Waving the sword in her mana-enhanced hand, Luo Li smiled and tentatively asked: ”This sword, what do you think, elders?”

”Damn it, this little girl is clearly trying to bait us into talking!”

The black-faced man suddenly had an awakening, secretly sending a message to the round-faced man.

”Don’t panic, we just need to maintain a consistent stance. What waves can she stir up?”

The round-faced man chuckled lightly.

The black-faced man understood and then looked at Luo Li, smiling kindly, ”Girl, as long as you like this sword, it means it has a connection with you. If you take this sword with you, we don’t mind, especially since you didn’t fancy the previous Emperor Level Treasure, did you?”

”Really?”

Luo Li’s eyes turned, her face showing a mischievous expression again.

She looked at the middle-aged man, smiling politely as she asked: ”Senior from the Sa Niang Clan, do you think I should take back this lower-grade Earth Level sword?”

Seeing the little girl divert trouble towards himself, the middle-aged man couldn’t help but rub his slightly sore brow, speaking irritably, ”As you wish!”

”Forget it, the quality of this sword is too poor; I wouldn’t take it even if it were free!”

Luo Li suddenly turned cold, changing her tone quickly and stuffing the sword back in.

Witnessing Luo Li’s repeated evasions, the black-faced man was also somewhat annoyed.

”You little girl, can you be a bit more efficient? If you keep dawdling like this, don’t blame us for getting rude!”

His sturdy body shook, his demeanor fierce, and his tone sharp as he spoke.

”Don’t rush, let me take another look, elders...”

Luo Li assuredly focused again, once more using her divine sense to inspect the ring.

There were many items in the ring, but through her previous attempts, she hadn’t found the item that the Ice and Fire Wolf Clan people cared about.

”What could it be, really?”

Luo Li’s mind raced, quickly scanning through the ring.

Generally speaking, treasures have the highest suspicion.

But she took out the best Emperor Level Treasure and the worst Earth Level treasure, yet hadn’t really tested them out.

Later, she also took out a bottle of pills, but it wasn’t the right choice either.

”What is that?”

Luo Li’s eyes flashed, suddenly noticing a string of white paper lanterns in the corner of the storage ring’s space.

The lanterns were made of paper, not considered artifacts, just an ordinary, plain white paper lantern.

Yet this ordinary lantern was treated as a treasure by the Demonic Clan Young Master and placed inside the storage ring.

What on earth is this?

Luo Li’s divine sense fell upon it, observing it carefully for quite a while but failed to find anything unusual.

Just a string of unremarkable white paper lanterns.

Still, it was those hanging lanterns.

When it got dark, they could be hung outside the door, a string of paper lanterns.

Only.

The white paper lantern lay there, seemingly eerie, always giving a sense of ominousness.

Fortunately, the candle inside the paper lantern wasn’t lit now, so it stayed quietly in the corner, not conspicuous.

”Maybe this string of white paper lanterns has something tricky...”

Luo Li surmised.

The mana-enhanced hand grabbed the string of white paper lanterns with a swoosh.

”These lanterns are nice, aren’t they, elders? I’ll take them!”

The mana-enhanced hand holding the string of white paper lanterns, Luo Li looked at the Life and Death Realm cultivators of the Ice and Fire Wolf Clan, speaking with a smile.

Once this string of white paper lanterns appeared, the expressions of those Life-Death Realm powerhouses from the Ice and Fire Wolf Clan instantly changed.

”Is this little girl doing this deliberately, or did she just get lucky?”

The round-faced man had a grim expression, quietly sending messages to the black-faced man.

”Probably just got lucky?

Although this little girl is pretty clever, she might be intentionally testing us...”

The black-faced man analyzed, frowning.

The round-faced man seemed somewhat worried, quietly speaking: ”The white paper lanterns aren’t any kind of artifact; if damaged, there’s truly nowhere to find them...”

”No choice, we need to stand firm for now. Otherwise, this little girl might not know the seriousness and end up destroying the lanterns!”

The black-faced man steadied himself, reluctantly coming up with a plan.

Currently, they all had a similar illusion.

Just like an innocent child holding a world-ending weapon; if dropped by mistake, all living beings in this world would cease to exist.

Learning to hit the mouse with a stick—

This was their mentality now.

The middle-aged man from the Sa Niang Clan, seeing this string of white paper lanterns, had a changed expression, the spark of recognition in his eyes shining brightly.

However, he didn’t move.

After all, the Sa Niang Clan and the Ice and Fire Wolf Clan were deeply friendly, merely a string of white paper lanterns couldn’t make him turn against them.

Luo Li observed everyone’s expressions thoroughly, her suspicion confirmed through the middle-aged man.

This seemingly inconspicuous string of white paper lanterns seemed to have significant origins.

”Alright, according to our previous agreement, this string of white paper lanterns is mine, and the storage ring is yours!”

Luo Li gently smiled, tossing the storage ring to the black-faced man.

”Do you really want this string of white paper lanterns?”

The black-faced man caught the ring, incredulously asked.

”Yes, these white paper lanterns are great and not artifacts, not worth a single Spirit Stone, they hold no value. If I take them, you won’t feel much loss, right?”

Luo Li held the string of white paper lanterns in her left hand, lightly tracing the lanterns with the Supreme Golden Dragon Sword in her right hand, smiling innocently.

Hiss!

The Life and Death Realm powerhouses from the Ice and Fire Wolf Clan saw this, their faces turned terrifyingly grim, collectively gasping.

The Young Master may die.

But this string of white paper lanterns was something they had to retrieve.

Otherwise, they couldn’t explain to the old clan leader.

”Can I leave now?”

Luo Li tapped the lanterns with the Supreme Golden Dragon Sword, asking with a cheerful smile.

Facing the sharp sword potentially slicing the paper lanterns open, the black-faced man and others felt their hearts in suspense.

After a few seconds of silence.

”You may leave...”

The black-faced man suddenly raised his head, looking at the mischievous Luo Li, finally deciding to let her go.

”Thank you so much!”

Luo Li giggled, her slender figure transforming into a golden dragon shadow, ascending to the sky, swiftly changing direction and fleeing afar.

In the valley, strong figures from both demon clans looked at each other, all having the feeling of being played.
