Chapter 959 Driven away (2/2)
Zhou Yuan calmly answered, “In terms of attack power, your Meridian Golden Light Boundary is remarkable among boundaries of the same level. In truth, if you hadn’t launched that final attack, it would have been difficult for me to break the formation.
“Your boundary wasn’t broken by me but by you.”
This was the truth. The boundary’s attack power was too terrifying, but Zhou Yuan destroyed it using its own power.
Jiu Gong was silent for a moment, then uttered, “Constructing another boundary from the remains of my boundary...your mastery of Genesis Runes is very impressive.”
She then calmly added, “I’ve lost. I underestimated you, Zhou Yuan.”
There still wasn’t a ripple of emotion on Zhou Yuan's face. “Then the Alpha Spiritium in this place...?”
Jiu Gong pondered for a moment, then turned to say to Xue Jingtao. “Take your people and leave.”
“Miss Jiu Gong, didn’t we agree to share the Spiritium inside the snow-capped mountain? We have only collected less than one tenth! How can we leave now?!”
“I was in charge of this place, but now it’s not just up to me. If you can get them to agree, I naturally won’t have any objection,” Jiu Gong said indifferently.
Yuan Kun smiled. “Although there is abundant Spiritium here, there isn’t enough to share with so many people.”
Of course he didn’t want Xue Jingtao to stay and take a share of the Spiritium. He felt that Xue Jingtao wasn’t qualified to be treated on the same level as them. If he were Su Youwei, it would have been very different.
Xue Jingtao immediately turned to Zhou Yuan and forced out a smile. “Chief pavilion master Zhou Yuan, you are acquainted with junior sister Youwei. I hope you will give her some face.”
Zhou Yuan's eyelids drooped as he said indifferently, “You also didn’t give face to her before, isn’t that right?”
Prior to this, Xue Jingtao had displayed an uncompromising attitude and showed no mercy to them, but now that the situation had changed, he had again brought out Su Youwei’s name. His behavior was simply despicable.
Xue Jingtao’s face went livid when he heard Zhou Yuan’s argument. He clenched his fists tight in anger, and his heart almost exploded.
In the end, he took two deep breaths and threatened, “Fine, the Zixiao Region will remember what you did to us. I will tell junior sister Youwei the truth when I see her. I will let her know what kind of person you are!”
Jiu Gong chuckled, “It’s unknown who Su Youwei will side with.”
The veins on Xue Jingtao’s temples visibly throbbed, and his eyes became a little bloodshot. He glanced at Zhou Yuan contemptuously and said, “Don’t worry. Junior sister Youwei knows what’s important. Nobody is more important than the Zixiao Region in her heart. If you don’t believe it, then wait and see.”
He flung his arm and turned away because he knew that it was no use lingering. The members of the Zixiao Region silently followed after him.
Zhou Yuan retracted his gaze. He didn’t feel that his actions would upset Su Youwei because he knew that they both understood their positions.
Just as if Lu Xiao ran into Su Youwei with his team and foolishly schemed against her, Zhou Yuan wouldn’t be upset with Su Youwei if she took action against Lu Xiao.
After they drove away the Zixiao Region team, Yuan Kun rubbed his hands together and turned to Jiu Gong with a smile. “Jiu Gong, can you tell us how much Alpha Spiritium you have found here?”
Jiu Gong shot a glance at him. “None.”
The smile on Yuan Kun’s face stiffened. “Jiu Gong, do you think we will believe that?”
Zhou Yuan also scrunched his brows. Jiu Gong has occupied this place for so long. If there is Alpha Spiritium here, she must have gotten them already, right? Her words really can’t be trusted.
Jiu Gong snorted and didn’t bother to explain. She just swept a glance over the two like they were country bumpkins.
“Do you really think that strands of Alpha Spiritium are that easy to find? Let’s go. I’ll show you.”
Jiu Gong turned around, heading into the depths of the ice mountain.
Zhou Yuan and Yuan Kun exchanged a surprised glance with each other, and in the end, they quickly settled the teams and followed after her.
