After some negotiations, Zhou Feng and Wu Shuhua came to an agreement.
He would help Wu Shuhua solve the problem of the curse, while she would help him hide the fact that he was a Human Emperor successor.
Also, she told Zhou Feng everything she knew about cultivation and gave him all the information about the Jade Lake Holy Land.
“Chaotic Green Lotus?”
During this process, Zhou Feng learned that the Jade Lake Holy Land had offered the Chaotic Green Lotus’ descendants as a reward for his life.
He had heard a lot about the Chaotic Green Lotus.
Suddenly, an idea popped up in his mind.
‘Why don’t I use myself to receive the reward? If I do it right, I might be able to buy a Chaotic Green Lotus for free.’
Moreover, with the help of the Sky-Shielding Umbrella, his plan seemed to have an extremely high success rate.
This so-called Sky-Shielding Umbrella was the big umbrella Wu Shuhua had previously taken out.
This umbrella was not the real Sky-Shielding Umbrella. The real Sky-Shielding Umbrella was once one of the connate numinous treasures of the past Human Emperors.
The one in Zhou Feng’s hand was only an imitation.
However, even if it was an imitation, it had the function of shielding one’s aura and reducing one’s sense of presence.
Wu Shuhua had managed to sneak into the Jade Lake Holy Land thanks to the Sky-Shielding Umbrella.
However, this item had already become his.
Wu Shuhua didn’t have any objections to this. Now that her life was in Zhou Feng’s hands, what could she do?
Because of Wu Shuhua’s appearance, Zhou Feng began to revise his previous plans.
…
Jade Lake City was the Jade Lake Holy Land’s core, and it was also the place that countless Jade Lake disciples dreamed of.
This place had the densest Spiritual Qi, the most cultivation techniques, and the guidance from top-tier experts.
In the past, Jade Lake City was considered a paradise on earth.
But now, the atmosphere here was heavy.
“What? Zhou Feng was caught?”
“Impossible! How could this thief be caught so easily?”
“That’s right! Even a Dragon Transformation Elder died at his hands. How could he fall at the hands of a vagabond cultivator!?”
“Although I don’t believe it either, the fact is that this piece of news has been confirmed.”
“…”
The Jade Lake disciples had a look of disbelief on their faces at this moment.
A vagabond cultivator had actually captured Zhou Feng alive!
Although many people had been belittling Zhou Feng, most of them knew in their hearts just how abnormal Zhou Feng was.
Just that proud battle record alone spoke for itself.
He had escaped from the hands of two Dragon Transformation Elders and even killed another Dragon Transformation Elder.
Although Elder Yu was old and frail, she wasn’t someone that ordinary Divine Ability cultivators could scam.
And now, an unknown vagabond cultivator jumped out and captured Zhou Feng alive?
This was simply unacceptable!
“What’s the point of saying so much now? If this is true, then that person will definitely come back to collect the reward.”
“That’s right! And if this is true, it can also be considered a good thing.”
“That’s right! It’s a good thing that this scourge is gone!”
Although they said so, the Jade Lake disciples were still muttering in their hearts, ‘What’s going on!? Why have so many powerful vagabond cultivators suddenly appeared during this period?’
They had actually suppressed the three great holy lands.
Zhou Feng had been captured! News of this matter had spread throughout the three great holy lands.
Moreover, the vagabond cultivator who had captured Zhou Feng had also requested the Jade Lake Holy Land to hand over the blue lotus. He would hand over Zhou Feng upon receiving the blue lotus at a designated location, the Two Peaks, a canyon between two mountains within the Jade Lake Holy Land’s territory.
Naturally, the Jade Lake Holy Land agreed to this request.
As long as they could capture Zhou Feng, a mere blue lotus was nothing.
The Jade Lake Holy Land and Zhou Feng had formed a blood feud.
In addition, Zhou Feng had many secrets. It would be a huge profit if they were to use a blue lotus to exchange for him. The only thing worth thinking about was whether there was a trap.
After all, a vagabond cultivator had suddenly appeared. Not only was he powerful, but he was also able to capture a fierce person like Zhou Feng alive.
Something wasn’t quite right.
When did vagabond cultivators become so powerful!?
If all vagabond cultivators were so powerful, then why did they need the three holy lands?
“No?”
“No! I’ve already calculated it! There’s no such thing as a genius vagabond cultivator!”
“Although this kid has some skills and can guard against mystical techniques, he’s still a bit too inexperienced.”
“In other words, this kid is acting on his own?”
“It should be like this! Is he trying to get a blue lotus?”
Naturally, the Jade Lake bigshots wouldn’t believe it so easily.
For this, they even hired a cultivator who specialized in mystical techniques and divinated whether this was true or not.
Because Zhou Feng had the passive Purification of Heaven and Earth and the help of the AI, he constantly changed his information.
As a result, it was very difficult for mystical techniques to work on Zhou Feng.
However, this time, the Jade Lake Holy Land didn’t focus on Zhou Feng but the so-called vagabond cultivator who had captured Zhou Feng alive.
They discovered with this simple divination that the so-called vagabond cultivator naturally didn’t exist.
This was just Zhou Feng acting on his own.
“How dare he! After offending my Jade Lake Holy Land, it’d be fine if he didn’t immediately flee, but he dared to come back and try to pull a fast one on us?”
“This time, he won’t escape from our grasp!”
“…”
The Jade Lake Holy Land believed that they had seen through Zhou Feng’s plan.
They also mobilized five Dragon Transformation Elders to head to Twin Peaks.
They could not afford to lose this time!
If the Jade Lake Holy Land failed again, the others would think that they were easy to bully.
They absolutely couldn’t give any more chances to Zhou Feng, who had been jumping around like a mouse.
However, all of this was in Zhou Feng’s plan.
In fact, he had long guessed that they would see through this self-directed and self-staged plan.
Because this was the power of big data!
The AI had used Hexadirectional Calculation to divinate countless times, and in the end, it had calculated that they would see through his plan.
Therefore, he might as well go with the flow.
He was going to beat them at their own game!
When the five Dragon Transformation Jade Lake Elders left Jade Lake City, Zhou Feng held the Sky-Shielding Umbrella and swaggered into Jade Lake City.
Thanks to the token Wu Shuhua had given him, no Jade Lake disciples suspected him at all.
Who would have thought that a core disciple like Wu Shuhua would be a turncoat?
Zhou Feng’s heart skipped a beat with Wu Shuhua’s disciple token in hand and the help of the Sky-Shielding Umbrella.
He reached the lotus pond with almost no effort.
He saw that the lotus pond was filled with all kinds of lotus flowers.
Although most of them were in the form of flower buds, there were still a few green lotuses that were in the mature stage and could be plucked directly.
‘There are no Dao Enlightenment cultivators in the three great holy lands. This news is too crucial!”‘
At the thought of this, Zhou Feng could not help but reveal a trace of excitement on his face.
He slowly put away the Sky-Shielding Umbrella and waved his hand.
He then smashed through a protective shield and snatched a green lotus under everyone’s watchful eyes.
