Ye Han sat cross-legged on the Heaven and Earth Five Elements Meditation Cushion and glanced at Teacher Lan Qing, who was looking elsewhere...
Had he not heard his voice transmission, he might have mistaken the man for being deep in cultivation. His heart stirred, and he was just about to answer Teacher Lan Qing...
"Ye Han! Can we trust what the Heaven-Shaking Divine Venerable said? Did you really find this Ancient Times Stone Stele?"
"Ye Han! I suspect this Ancient Times Stone Stele wasn't the only thing you obtained, was it?"
Voice transmissions from Saint As and Wuxie Scholar followed. Their tones clearly revealed their suspicions about the whole affair.
Ye Han's heart stirred. After a moment's thought, he transmitted directly to all three, "Don't worry! I captured the Mountain Giant's spirit body too. It reacts very strongly to the Nine Dragons. Once I absorb it, I can make the aura of my Nine Dragons even stronger."
He paused, then cautioned them through voice transmission, "The Heaven-Shaking Divine Venerable must be after it too. We can't let him know!"
Ye Han told the three of them the truth because, after all, they had come here together. He wanted to draw them into his camp so that, at the very least, the four of them could join forces if a dispute really broke out...
As for the Heaven-Shaking Divine Venerable, that man was an old fox. He had roped them into cooperating merely to serve his own ends. Relying on his greater knowledge of the Star Continent, he wanted to swallow all the benefits himself. How could anyone trust him?
Of course, Ye Han would have done the same in his place. After all, cultivation resources in this world were extremely limited. Anything one could seize was worth seizing.
