Jiang Yuan raised an eyebrow and flipped his hand to put away the Azure Lotus Pill.
Who else but An Xiaoyu would be so reckless as to barge into a tent!
"Little Jiangjiang, have you missed me?" Yu Tu sneakily leaned the door curtain against the door as soon as she came in.
"Finished the business? You're looking for the Phantom Squad, right?" Jiang Yuan asked calmly.
"I smelled it! You're secretly eating alone behind my back again!" Yu Tu said angrily.
"Don't you have any other lofty images in your head besides me stealing food?" Jiang Yuan teased, tossing the Qinglian Pill up and down as he played with it.
With her hands behind her back, Yu Tu approached mischievously, "What is this? I remember the Great Rejuvenation Pill didn't smell like this!"
"Would you like to try some?" Jiang Yuan asked with a smile, tempting Yu Tu's heart.
"It's not that kind of drug, is it?" Yu Tu pretended to shudder, but his face was relaxed and carefree.
Jiang Yuan didn't explain, and simply tossed the Azure Lotus Pill over: "Although you only have a single type of soul energy, you can still purify your bloodline!"
The first pill had the most significant effect, so Jiang Yuan decided to give the Azure Lotus Pill to her. As for himself, his mutated Five Elements Bloodline was very pure. Since the attribute bloodline itself did not conflict with the clan's bloodline, if he wanted to improve his bloodline, he had to use the original attribute bloodline.
"You refined that lotus flower into a pill?" Yu Tu was slightly surprised. She didn't expect Jiang Yuan to be so fast, refining the pill in just a few hours.
"I only used a small portion of the materials," Jiang Yuan smiled and assured him, "Don't worry, we both received a share of these flowers, so I'll try my best to supply you with these pills!"
"Then I'll really eat it?" Yu Tu asked, her hands trembling with anticipation as she held the pill.
"What, do you want me to feed you again?" Jiang Yuan joked.
"Be reserved! You must be reserved!"
Yu Tu silently recalled what Yang Binghai had said, then smiled faintly and replied, "You only have one, let's split it in half!"
"You really look down on me, an alchemist, that much?" Jiang Yuan crossed his arms, his words tinged with complaint.
"No, I'm just trying to please our future great alchemist," Yu Tu said innocently, shrugging.
"Alright, stop joking around! Take the pill and tell me about today's events!"
Jiang Yuan issued an ultimatum in a fit of anger.
"Here we go again. Didn't you scold me before? And I sincerely admitted my mistake, so please don't pursue it!" Yu Tu thought it was about the incident of wandering into the Undead Swamp that morning.
"Who told you to pursue that matter!" Jiang Yuan rubbed his temples, his head throbbing. Why was communicating with a woman so exhausting?
"What is it?"
"Didn't you say you were going to spread the news? You were gone for several hours, what was the result?" Jiang Yuan was a little worried that An Xiaoyu would stop at nothing, that is, use illegitimate means.
"You really don't believe I'm selling my body?!"
Yu Tu finally understood; it turned out they had come to interrogate him.
"Not bad. You went out with 1,310 soul energy and came back with 1,311 soul energy. Judging from the amount of soul energy you gained, you've been quite honest!" Jiang Yuan said calmly.
Yu Tu looked horrified, clutching her chest and collar in disbelief, and said, "You stinky Jiang Yuan, you've been spying on me!"
"It's not surveillance, just a cheap trick! So you'd better confess!" Jiang Yuan threatened with a smile. He didn't think using surveillance was shameful at all; on the contrary, it was an honor to be proud of.
"Hmph, fine, I'll just confess!" Yu Tu took a mouthful of the Azure Lotus Pill, biting it hard a few times as if to exhale, and then said, "The Phantom Squad suffered heavy losses in the Undead Swamp this time, and they probably won't participate in the treasure battle in Echo Valley afterward! However, they are willing to help us spread this information, and they will use the Undead Swamp incident to cover up the news they received!"
Ultimately, they also wanted to kill the Holy Spirit!
Yu Tu was full of confidence and added, "After all, it's a mission with a million-dollar bounty!"
"What, are you tempted?" Jiang Yuan felt relieved after learning that things were settled and instead started joking with Yu Tu.
"Who wouldn't be tempted! Before the cataclysm, people risked their lives for houses and cars, and after the cataclysm, they'll risk their lives for the Holy Spirit Stone just as much!" said Desire Rabbit matter-of-factly.
"If this S-rank mission was ordered by the Holy Spirit, then the Holy Spirit Clan will definitely not let us succeed so easily!" Jiang Yuan remained rational; there is no such thing as a free lunch in this world.
"I don't know if it will be easy to get it, but the 500,000 deposit for that S-level mission is still at the mercenary headquarters, so if we can really complete the mission, no matter who issued it, we can easily earn the 500,000!" Yu Tu was particularly moved by the number 500,000.
"It seems you didn't just spread the news this time; you also inquired quite a bit about the mission to kill the Spirit King!" Jiang Yuan asked with a smile.
"I call this knowing yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated!" A hint of smugness appeared on Yu Tu's face.
"Now that you know, let's talk about the specific tasks!"
Yu Tu nodded and said, "This Spirit King possesses the bloodline of the Blood Spirit Clan's royal family and is also the next successor of the Demon God Mountain. His status can be described as extremely noble, which is why there is a sky-high reward of one million ninth-tier Holy Spirit Stones!"
"As for why so many mercenaries appeared at the Tomb of the Warlord, it's because the mercenary headquarters provided information about the Spirit King's whereabouts. Therefore, mercenaries from Haicheng who wanted to complete their missions entered the Tomb of the Warlord through the channels provided by the mercenary headquarters."
"However, no one has seen the Spirit King yet! On the contrary, several mercenary teams have already died here!"
After listening to Yu Tu's words, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but ponder. He asked seriously, "Are you sure that only your Northern City Alliance and the Xu family know about the Tomb of the Lord of Soldiers?"
