Chapter 166 (1/2)
The Spirit of the Thunderbolts
“What? It’s been seven days and Su Yun can’t even get one electric wood?”
In the main hall, Mu Tian Hao held onto to a cup of tea as he looked at the elite guards in shock.
“Yes, patriarch. Not only that, Su Yun had used up all two million spirit coins worth of supplies. And he seems to be asking for more. At this rate, I estimate that within a month’s time, he would have used 7 million spirit coins from the Mu Family!”
As the ancient maker of the soul stone, the Mu Family was financially stable. They could earn tons of spirit coins just by making one soul stone. Adding the finances of Mystical Mountain Range… Or maybe even the surrounding ranges, it would be far lesser than what the Mu Family had.
But expenditure as high as seven million spirit coins…
Mu Tian Hao frowned.
Maybe the Mu Family had to rack their brains too.
“Su Yun is using the best supplies, the best pills and arrays. Each of the items are rare items. Now, many of the people in our mansion are running around Mu Chong City helping him to prepare such expensive supplies. Patriarch, I think if we continue like this, we may get nothing in return, and burn a hole in our pocket.”
The elite guard lowered his head and said with his fist cupped.
Mu Tian Hao pondered.
After a long while, he raised his head and asked: “Then when do you think we should give up?”
“We can only do it to such an extent!”
The elite guard replied.
“Then can you heal the young master?”
“This…” The elite guard’s face turned ugly.
Mu Tian Hao saw him and groaned: “Since Su Yun boasted, we should believe in him! There’s no other way left! Moreover, we have already spent so much on him. If I let him come back now, are you telling me to let these efforts go to waste?”
The elite guard lowered his head and stayed quiet.
Mu Tian Hao waved his hand and said blandly: “Satisfy Su Yun’s needs. I don’t care what he’s doing as long as he delivers! I’m only giving him a month’s time. One month later, if he can’t obtain a hundred electric wood or he delayed the healing status of my son, I will ask him to pay for everything!”
“Yes, Patriarch!”
“Dismissed!” Mu Tian Hao said in a fatigue tone.
“Subordinate bids farewell.”
The elite guard bowed to him respectfully and retreated.
….
Leaving Mu Family, the elite guard rode on the purple horned beast and towards the electric wood forest to gather with the other elite guards.
Seeing this informant coming from his family, the elite guards gathered.
“Mu Cao, you’re finally back!”
The captain walked over and asked solemnly: “What did the patriarch say?”
Mu Cao glance at everyone, shook his head and sighed: “The patriarch wants us to wait patiently.”
“What?”
“Continue to wait? It has been days and this man only knows how to ask me to seek items for him and yet, he had yet to give us anything that we wanted. Is he trying to play a joke on my Mu Family?”
“No one dares to play a joke on the ancient maker of the soul stone family! Unless he wants to have a taste of soul stone!”
The captain’s face congealed and muttered: “Everyone, we’ll stay here and wait for him patiently. Young master Feng has sustained severe injuries. He would not be able to last for long. He has 30 days to complete his mission. If he can’t obtain one piece of electric wood in these 30 days, we’ll capture him right away and bring him back to the Mu Family for interrogation!”
“Ok!”
The elite guards nodded in approval.
In the darkness, pairs of eyes looked towards him.
….
In the electric wood forest.
Swoosh…
The shadows of the sword moved. It was as though the lightnings attacking in all directions were being blocked off by a wall of sword. As they got near this man in black, the lightning bolts were crushed. It was hard to penetrate and harm him.
Feels good!!
Su Yun cheered in his heart as he rode on thousand deep and death sword to fend off the lightning bolts coming towards at him. This time, he maneuvered the two swords faster and better.
With his current power, it was not a big problem to maneuver 3 or 4 swords. It was time to reach out for the swords in his sword sheath.
Su Yun thought and a blue lightning came crashing towards him.
Bang!
This time, an ear piercing explosion resonated.
He looked up to see the pitch black cloud was roiling with a few wisps of blood red lightning!
Red lightning!
Su Yun looked solemn.
As compared to the random lightning around him, the red lightning looked tremendous.
Bang!
The cloud rang once again. Then a ray of red lightning fell from the sky towards Su Yun.
Like a red dragon, it fell fast and agile. The glorious radiance looked fierce and terrifying. Just by the looks of it, he would feel numb and he shook.
Su Yun clenched his teeth and waved both his hands to gather the thousand deep and death sword around him. Both of the swords faced up and flew towards the incoming lightning!
Swoosh!
