Chapter 301 Hunting Time
Pigsy was startled by the sudden sound. He turned around and saw Kongming. He was stunned for a moment, then shouted righteously, "I, Old Pig, had my butt scratched raw by Yao Yao to save you. Don't you think I should compensate you?"
As Zhu Ganglie spoke, he turned around, sticking out his buttocks to display the several shocking claw marks. His fat body trembled as if emphasizing the suffering he had endured.
Kongming smiled and nodded, saying, "Compensation is due, of course it is due. But as you know, I'm currently short of money. However, I'll soon be able to give you a generous gift!"
Upon hearing this, Pigsy's eyes widened, and he asked with some suspicion, "Really? Don't try to fool me again, old pig. I can't let this injury go to waste."
Just then, Zhao Yun also emerged from the cave.
He bowed slightly to Kongming and said, "Thank you for your help, Prime Minister!"
Kongming smiled slightly and hurriedly helped Zhao Yun up, "Zilong, is there any need for such formalities between us?"
It turns out that Kongming had already recovered almost completely. His tempered magical power could quickly heal itself as long as he wasn't completely killed.
Zhao Yun suffered a severe blow from Yao Yao, severing all his meridians. It was fortunate that he survived, and a quick recovery would not be easy.
It was Kongming who injected his refined magical power into Zhao Yun's body, carefully repairing Zhao Yun's damaged meridians, which brought Zhao Yun back to life and even slightly improved his martial arts cultivation...
"Prime Minister! What are your plans next?" Zhao Yun asked.
"It's time to end this!" Kongming waved his feather fan and said thoughtfully.
Previously, Kongming was severely injured by Ji Rong and others, and was powerless to stop Yao Yao's transformation into a demon.
They could only watch helplessly as she transformed back into the Demon Rakshasa, and even tried to kill Kongming.
However, this also revealed to Kongming the conditions that triggered her demonic transformation.
"Looks like I'll have another super expert by my side from now on!"
Kongming's lips curled into an interesting smile as he gazed into the distance...
……
On a cliff in a canyon, Kongming gazed thoughtfully at the steep, knife-cut cliff face.
Below, the river rushes on, its waves crashing against the jagged rocks and shattering into a cloud of white foam.
"Brother, what treasure is there here? Could it be that your Eight Trigrams Formation isn't working anymore?" Pigsy lay on the edge of the cliff, poking out half of his pig head to look down at the river, muttering with a face full of doubt.
Kongming didn't reply, but instead condensed a wisp of pale golden spiritual energy at his fingertips and gently pointed it towards the void. The Eight Trigrams Formation responded and suddenly expanded, spreading down the river like a giant net.
After a long pause, Kongming's lips curled into a slight smile, and he let out a cold laugh: "Hmph! They really know how to hide!"
It turns out that beneath the seemingly turbulent surface of the river lies a hidden energy cave, tightly sealed by an ingenious array, preventing even the slightest trace of its energy from leaking out.
If it weren't for the Eight Trigrams Formation's keen ability to detect the faint fluctuations of magical power emanating from the array surrounding the energy point, it would have been difficult to discover the trickery beneath the water.
It's true that being too clever for one's own good can backfire.
"Ganglie, do you want the treasure?" Kongming turned to look at Zhu Ganglie, his tone somewhat enticing.
"Hey...who wouldn't want a treasure?" Zhu Bajie narrowed his pig eyes, looking at Kongming suspiciously. "You're not trying to say that the treasure is hidden at the bottom of this river, are you?"
“Indeed, there are indeed treasures hidden at the bottom of this river. Why don’t you go down there for a bit?” Kongming said, waving his feather fan, a hint of cunning in his smile.
"If you have treasure, why don't you go down yourself? Do you think I'm stupid?" Pigsy plopped down on the rock, looking as if he had already seen through Kongming's thoughts.
Kongming lightly waved his feather fan, his smile deepening: "If I had half your underwater skills, you wouldn't even have a chance."
These words struck a chord with Pigsy, whose tail unconsciously twitched to the sky: "What you say is quite true. But I'm warning you, if you dare to lie to me, I, Old Pig, will never forgive you!"
"Don't worry, the treasures below will surely broaden your horizons!" Kongming smiled slightly and said confidently.
Although he wasn't sure who was hiding underwater, he was certain it was a Nascent Soul cultivator from one of the three great families who was healing there. Just imagine, how could anyone not covet the possessions of a Nascent Soul cultivator?
Unable to resist Kongming's urging, Zhu Bajie shook off his fat, grabbed his nine-toothed rake, and plunged into the water with a "plop"...
