Online: I Can See Health Bars Chapter 1615 - 724: Rare Calm

Captain Di presents, the rewards prepared by the higher-ups.

Hei Ao glanced at Zuo Lv and lifted his chin.

Zuo Lv stepped forward without hesitation and accepted the bounty.

This is an order from the Absolute Sect, simply killing demons is not enough, killing demons and claiming rewards is the complete process.

Of course, besides the local bounty, the Absolute Sect’s rewards are not lacking either.

So going out to hunt demons, this kind of sect mission, is a semi-welfare task of encouragement.

This kind of mission is considered quite lucrative within the sect; Hei Ao and Zuo Lv were able to receive the mission because they followed the right people.

"Things here are done, we should go meet Senior Sister Lu now."

Zuo Lv said.

Senior Sister Lulu is the heir of Elder Tang’s faction in the Absolute Sect.

Amidst factional struggles, the Sect Leader did not completely eradicate them, leaving a glimmer.

And those like them, who joined the sect with tokens, were categorized under Senior Sister Lu’s faction.

Basically, they were considered direct subordinates of Senior Sister Lu.

After thinking for a moment, Hei Ao said.

"We leave tonight."

Unlike others in the Absolute Sect, their minds had not been assimilated by the Sect, without the obsession to wipe out demons completely.

Although they vaguely felt that Jin’an City probably still hid many demons, they did not intend to stay to continue searching and slaughtering.

The Foolish Underworld people wished to retain them, but it was to no avail.

Even at night, the two had left Jin’an City.

After three days on the road, arriving at Qiliang Mountain, they finally slowed their pace, because the person they were to meet was on the mountain.

The not-high mountain, with a long mountain path, built along the mountain.

The two went up the mountain path and saw demon corpses lying on the path at intervals along the way.

Hei Ao and Zuo Lv were shocked at the sight.

Mountains like these are commonly occupied by demons.

And the demons that could occupy such a mountain, and stay in such mountains, generally were not weak.

But even these demons, now all became corpses, dying on the mountain path.

They could imagine that these demons must have sensed the presence of humans, came to hunt, but were instead slain by humans, and thus died tragically on the mountain path, becoming part of the scenery.

So they walked all the way to the mountain top and finally saw the figure who had been waiting for a long time.

"Senior Sister Lu!"

"Senior Sister Lulu!"

Lulu was half-kneeling on the ground, back facing them, and beside her lay a large corpse of a tiger demon, with a bloody appearance, seemingly just having died not long ago.

Slightly tilting her head, Lulu turned half her face towards the two behind.

"You have arrived."

Since Elder Tang’s death, she had become increasingly reticent, doing many things quietly rather than speaking about them.

"Senior Sister Lu, we have dealt with the matters in Jin’an City." Hei Ao reported back.

"...Well done."

Lulu withdrew her gaze, gently reaching to caress the thing in her arms.

Rough yet grainy touch, the uneven skin texture...

This was indeed the Buddha’s Heart, acquired by the crafty schemes and great profit exchange of Elder Tang!

With the gentle touch, she seemed to be feeling for a heartbeat of the Buddha’s Heart, but there was no sign of it.

For it was a dead thing.

And such a dead thing had cost... Lord Tang his life!

Lulu’s eyes gradually turned firm and cold.

Lan Yuhe... Demon Emperor, Lan Yuhe!!

"You two, listen to orders."

Hei Ao and Zuo Lv behind heard the words and stood at attention, awaiting orders.

"News has come that in the Capital City, the signs of demons lurking have been found. The Absolute Sect has specially ordered a thorough investigation, are you two willing to follow the arrangement?"

The Capital?!

Hei Ao and Zuo Lv were both startled.

But soon, Hei Ao quickly showed an eager and excited appearance.

Instead, Zuo Lv frowned slightly, seeming to have concerns.

"Senior Sister Lulu, the road to the capital is long, with only the two of us investigating, I’m afraid we won’t manage."

Zuo Lv said earnestly.

"I will go with you, and other Absolute Sect disciples will also be executing this task, all already on the way."

Zuo Lv was instantly taken aback.

While Senior Sister Lulu’s position in the Absolute Sect wasn’t low, the number of disciples she could actually command was rather few.

This time, how come...

"Any more concerns?"

Feeling Senior Sister Lulu’s cold gaze, Zuo Lv quickly lowered his head.

"No."

Under the eaves, one must lower their head.

Zuo Lv felt a bit of bitterness.

Once upon a time, she was the young lady of the Zuo Family, attended by many, holding a high status.

And now, far from home, becoming an obscure small disciple of the Absolute Sect, needing to handle everything personally.

Everything in Tianyuan Town seems like a dream, becoming surreal, with an air of unreality.

After they accepted their orders, Lulu slowly stood up.

Putting away the Buddha’s Heart, she gazed into the distance.

Standing atop the mountain, looking down, the scenery was picturesque.

But in Lulu’s heart, it was burning, ablaze!

She was acutely aware of her own powerlessness, and upon hearing news of the Demon Capital’s annihilation of the Capital army, she felt as if this life might never see her revenge fulfilled.

Thus, she compromised.

Compromise with the Absolute Sect Leader, and the compromise to go to Shangjing for negotiations.

Indeed, she was not a match for Lan Yuhe.

But there would always be someone who could kill Lan Yuhe, and there would always be someone... who would take an interest in the Buddha’s Heart.

The Capital, full of talents and strong as dragons.

No matter how strong Lan Yuhe is, he could never surpass the Da Xia Dynasty, surpass the heritage of a nation!
