Three days later, there was no more toxic fog in the cave. Blood Fairy had sealed off the pond so there was no more toxic fog coming out.
This time's mission was very easy. It was equivalent to obtaining three billion celestial stones easily. Furthermore, he had obtained the primordial divine dragon's blood essence. This mission was definitely worth it.
If Lady Yuan's ten billion celestial stones were included, then Lu Li would have made a killing.
Of course, ten billion celestial stones was not easy to earn. If Lady Yuan did not give them to Lu Li, he could not go to the Duan Race and ask for them.
Therefore, the ten billion was an unknown number.
The toxic fog was gone. Lu Li could let them go in at any time. However, he could not make up his mind.
His business was done and he could leave at any time. There was no need for him to go to the later levels.
However, if he left, he would lose the protection of Yu Yang and the others. He might be assassinated by powerful warriors of the Shadow Race and the elves under the orders of Young Master Lu and Lady Yuan. He might be killed before he could leave the Taihuang Region.
After a while, the toxic fog in the cave was gone. Young Master Lu said, "The toxic fog is gone. Why don't you go in?"
Gu Su and the others were surprised as well. But they said nothing and waited for Lu Li's orders.
Lu Li opened his eyes. Blood Fairy had returned to his body. He walked out and said, "The toxic fog is gone. You can go to the next level."
"You?" Yu Yang frowned and asked, "You are not going with us?"
"Yes!"
Lu Li nodded. "I will wait for you here. I am not strong enough. I cannot be of much help to you. Instead, I will drag you down!"
"No!"
Lady Yuan shouted. She came out from the interspatial artifact. Looking at Lu Li coldly, she said, "You are here on a mission. How can you give up halfway?
Is this how your god of death does things? "
"Ha, ha!"
Lu Li said with a smile, "First of all, I am not from the god of death. Second, I have a deal with the god of death. I am here to solve the toxic fog. Now that my job is done, I can choose not to go with you."
"Eh?"
Lady Yuan was surprised. She turned to Gu Su who nodded and said, "Yes, there is such a deal. Young Master Lu is only here to solve the toxic fog."
Miss Yuan rolled her eyes and said, "What if there is more poisonous fog behind us?
He's here to dispel the poison fog, but he didn't say that he's only here to dispel this stage's poison fog, right? "
Miss Yuan was twisting words and forcing logic, but it was also a fallacious logic. What she said was not wrong.
Lu Li frowned. He looked at Lady Yuan and said, "Lady Yuan, you want me to go with you. Is it because you don't want me to leave?"
There was a rare hint of a smile in Miss Yuan's eyes, along with a hint of charm. She said, "That's right, Young Master Lu. I want you to accompany us. Will you go?"
"Uh …"
The young masters were taken aback, especially those of the Shadow Race and the Elf Race. They had heard that this young lady was never kind to any man. How could she smile at Lu Li?
And a little bit coquettish?
Was she still Miss Yuan?
"You want me to go with you?" Lu Li repeated with a smile, then suddenly changed his expression and said, "No!"
"You …"
The smile on Lady Yuan's face froze. She glared at him and said coldly, "If you don't follow me to the next checkpoint, don't even think about the ten billion. You're breaking the contract!"
"I won't?"
Lu Li put on a mocking smile and asked, "Are you sure you won't?
Ha, ha, I suggest you think about it before you make a decision! "
Lady Yuan's expressions changed. She didn't argue further. She sneered and said, "You can go if you want. If you don't, think about the consequences yourself."
Lady Yuan didn't want to let Lu Li go like this. What if Lu Li talked nonsense after he got out?
By then, her reputation would be ruined. Therefore, she didn't want Lu Li to leave before she figured out how to deal with him.
Her last sentence was a clear threat, but Lu Li wasn't afraid at all.
The Blood Race had been wiped out, so average warriors could hardly track him down. Only powerful warriors that were close to the consummate realm could see through his Skill of Transfiguration and Stealth.
The Duan Race couldn't mobilize all the powerful warriors that were close to the consummate realm to hunt him down.
At that moment, Yu Yang suddenly said to Lu Li, "Brother Lu, how about you come with us?
Don't worry. As long as we are still alive, nobody will dare to touch you.
We, the Grim Reaper, value trust. If they want to touch you, they will have to do it over our dead bodies. That means they are enemies of the Grim Reaper. "
Yu Yang was the descendant of a big shot of the Grim Reaper. As the successor of the Grim Reaper, they all had their own pride. The Grim Reaper was an assassin organization, but no force in the Chaotic Star Region dared to belittle the Grim Reaper.
Not even the Duan Race dared to start a war with the Grim Reaper. To do so would be to declare war against the demons that were standing behind the Grim Reaper.
More importantly, the Grim Reaper didn't have a stable base. Even if the Duan Race wanted to destroy the Grim Reaper, they couldn't kill most of the powerful warriors of the Grim Reaper at once.
Once the Duan Race made an enemy of the Grim Reaper, they would suffer from the assassins of the Grim Reaper and the demons. The Duan Race would suffer a great loss, a price they could not afford.
Therefore, as long as the Grim Reaper didn't do anything out of line, the major races in the Chaotic Star Region wouldn't make trouble for it.
The Grim Reaper had many rules. The assassins of the Grim Reaper were very particular about rules and would never act recklessly. This was also one of the reasons why the Grim Reaper could exist for so many years and remain so powerful.
Lu Li was hesitating. Lady Yuan was a young lady from a rich family. When she was hot-headed, she could do anything.
The Duan Race might not do anything rash, but with Lady Yuan's influence, she could mobilize some senior patriarchs of the Shadow Race and the Elven Race.
Therefore, if he left now, it would be dangerous. Even if he could leave the Great Desolation Region, he might not be completely safe. For now, he didn't know where to go.
"Never mind!"
Lu Li thought about it and decided to go with Yu Yang. If there was any danger, they would be the ones to deal with it. When the main force couldn't move forward, they would retreat as well.
As long as the assassins of the Grim Reaper were still alive, the Shadow Race and the Elven Race wouldn't dare to touch him even if they were 10 times bolder.
"Let's go!"
Lu Li waved his hand. Lady Yuan immediately walked forward like a rooster that had won a fight. Seeing Lady Yuan's plump butt twisting, Lu Li felt a bit regretful. If he had known this earlier, he would have touched it more. It would be a waste not to touch it.
Soon, the warriors left the cave. They had passed the eighth level and entered the ninth.
Lu Li secretly let Blood Fairy out. "Blood Fairy, go and deactivate that formation. Let the toxic haze spread out." Lu Li told Blood Fairy.
Lady Yuan was not kind enough to him. She might resort to violence. Lu Li had to be cautious.
He had blocked off the way back. Without him to dissolve the toxic fog, Lady Yuan and the others would all be trapped here. None of them would be able to get out.
