"Let's begin." Yuan Xi looked eager to get started.
Ever since Lu Ye had proven his abilities at Frostfall last time, she had made some plans. Rather than painstakingly attacking other Uniting Dao Cities herself, it was better to sit back and reap the fisherman's profit like this.
With Lu Ye's methods, she could intercept all the Uniting Dao Pearls that would otherwise vanish into the unseen. When the time came, she only needed to hand over a small portion, while keeping all the rest for herself.
Others did the work, yet she took most of the gains.
Of course, this time, she had grown tired of waiting and had joined the battle herself. But such assistance did not come without benefits. Before acting, she had already negotiated terms with the two Uniting Dao City Lords who had joined forces.
Lu Ye threw a punch, shattering the Uniting Dao Pearl before him. Then, before the countless fragments could flee into the unseen, he clenched his hand.
Just as on the previous two occasions, every fragment of the Uniting Dao Pearl was retained.
Yuan Xi happily gathered them up.
A moment later, Lu Ye watched as she divided the collected fragments into two portions. After hesitating briefly, she took two fragments from the larger portion and placed them into the smaller one.
There was no need to think about it. The larger portion was what she intended to keep for herself, while the smaller portion was naturally meant to be handed over. Yet compared to the amount they would normally obtain, the portion she handed over was actually somewhat greater.
It was precisely by using this condition that she had managed to secure this cooperation with the two Uniting Dao City Lords. Otherwise, why would they have invited Yuan Xi over?
