Inseparable

Li Shaojun did indeed come to watch the excitement.

Zhang Xuezhou had caused him a lot of trouble in the past, but it was rare for Zhang Xuezhou to have tormented himself to the point of being unrecognizable.

"Tsk tsk tsk, look at you, and then look at me!"

Li Shaojun arrived in the middle of the night. He looked at Zhang Xuezhou, who was sitting in the study like a clay sculpture, and then proudly activated the Law Power he possessed.

A wisp of deep purple Law Power directly revealed Li Shaojun's cultivation level.

During Zhang Xuezhou's absence of more than half a year, Li Shaojun has not been without progress.

With the powerful stimulation of the Eight Steps to Immortality Pill, coupled with the Creation Pills he had obtained through swindling and deception in recent months, Li Shaojun also broke through the gate to the Sole Self Realm.

Compared to Zhang Xuezhou's numerous flaws and ailments, Li Shaojun was in excellent condition. Apart from a long period of Law Power transformation and a period of weakness and recuperation, Li Shaojun had no other problems.

"This is a case of good deeds being rewarded and evil deeds being punished," Li Shaojun said smugly. "Only a virtuous person like me can cultivate the Tao and attain enlightenment; even Heaven can't stand someone like you!"

"Stop talking nonsense, just tell me if you're going to do it or not?"

Zhang Xuezhou replied irritably.

The reason he invited Li Shaojun was simple: to demonstrate violent methods in cooperation with Divine Lord Zhenyuan, since Li Shaojun was very famous.

Venerable Lei did not trust Zhang Xuezhou, but Venerable Lei trusted Li Shaojun.

As long as Li Shaojun and Zhang Xuezhou cooperate to refine the Longevity Pill, Venerable Lei's trust in it will increase by 90%.

The Venerable Lei sought a partner was a top-tier herbalist in the world who collected rare and exotic fruits. He could find rare and precious medicinal fruits that Zhang Xuezhou and others rarely had access to.

Zhang Xuezhou even considered commanding Venerable Lei to go to the Eastern Heavenly Gate to obtain the Spirit Silk Jade Lotus Root, wanting to see if the original Spirit Silk Jade Lotus Root had the effect of removing the power of locking yang.

If Zhang Xuezhou wants to accomplish these things, he needs Li Shaojun's cooperation.

"This is a bit risky," Li Shaojun clicked his tongue. "It might fool Venerable Lei for a while, but this kind of thing can't last. If the demands aren't met, things will inevitably fall apart, and he might even harbor ill intentions!"

"You don't need to worry about the consequences of this," Zhang Xuezhou said. "Besides, what you obtained wasn't just the great medicine that Venerable Lei also helped to harvest; I can also tell you a very secret thing!"

"Oh?"

Without even thinking, Li Shaojun knew perfectly well that Zhang Xuezhou was gaining a huge advantage in his cooperation with Venerable Lei, while he was just an afterthought.

Although Li Shaojun could also receive some benefits, he felt that he didn't need those uncertain benefits and didn't want to suffer Venerable Lei's retaliation.

However, the secret matter mentioned by Zhang Xuezhou piqued Li Shaojun's interest, since Zhang Xuezhou wouldn't speak without reason, and this secret matter must involve Li Shaojun.

"Do you possess a safe passage to the Immortal Court?"

Li Shaojun pondered for a few seconds, then began to speculate about Zhang Xuezhou's secrets.

For Li Shaojun, there is very little he desires at the moment.

He had gone to great lengths to reach the Sole Self Realm Selflessness, so he couldn't expect Li Shaojun to immediately expect to step into the True Self Realm.

Even if he did have that ability, it's not something he could achieve just by talking.

True Self Realm were easily attained, there would be as many True Self Realm cultivators as dogs in the world.

In reality, reaching the Sole Self Realm is already quite rare; the Great Han Dynasty only had a few hundred cultivators at the Sole Self Realm.

In a large country, if someone can achieve even one percent of that, they are truly exceptional, and no amount of praise is too much.

This is also why Li Shaojun's behavior was somewhat out of control.

He tried hard to control his boastful emotions and restrain himself, striving to find out the real information without disgusting Zhang Xuezhou.

"You guess!"

Zhang Xuezhou gave no hints, as if he would only reveal the answer once Zhang Xuezhou Shaojun agreed to the cooperation.

"I'm only giving you this one chance," Zhang Xuezhou said. "You're good at deceiving, but there are people in the world who can replace you. I just need to find a powerful cultivator to impersonate you, and he can accomplish the same things!"

That's not very meaningful!

The thought flashed through Li Shaojun's mind and then disappeared.

Zhang Xuezhou's collaboration with Li Shaojun is the optimal solution, but not the only one.

Li Shaojun's little tail hadn't been wagging for long before Zhang Xuezhou dealt with him swiftly and decisively.

He wanted to leave immediately to avoid falling into a trap, but he also wanted to follow Zhang Xuezhou into trouble, since Zhang Xuezhou didn't do unprofitable business, and the other party wouldn't recklessly cause irreparable trouble.

"What is our relationship?" Li Shaojun's expression changed. "We are the best partners. Even if you weren't in trouble and needed help, I would still cooperate with you unconditionally!"

"Are you sure?" Zhang Xuezhou asked.

"It must be confirmed," Li Shaojun said, patting his chest. "But you must guarantee that your secret matter is closely related to me, otherwise I won't be able to swallow this!"

"I guarantee you'll be able to breathe your last," Zhang Xuezhou said.

"Deal made with a high five!"

Zhang Xuezhou agreed, and Li Shaojun didn't hesitate much, high-fiving Zhang Xuezhou to finalize the agreement.

Li Shaojun is frivolous and greedy, but he will keep his promises as long as the matter has been seriously negotiated. This is the reputation he has built over his many collaborations with Zhang Xuezhou and others.

After a brief high-five, Zhang Xuezhou began to recount Feng Xize's story, which made Li Shaojun's face grow paler and paler.

"No wonder I sensed 'white' when I broke through my cultivation level," Li Shaojun said, his face pale. "He planted a poisonous curse on me. I must protect him and rescue him, or I will die a horrible death!"

"Um?"

Zhang Xuezhou felt he had brought good news for Li Shaojun.

'Bai' has escaped the suppression of Emperor Gaozu, which means that Li Shaojun no longer needs to harm the Great Han Dynasty and can finally be freed from this impossible task.

But this news brought Li Shaojun more fear and shock.

Upon hearing the news, Li Shaojun's body went limp instantly, and cold sweat poured down his forehead.

"What kind of poison curse do you have?" Zhang Xuezhou asked curiously, "Didn't you just say you were perfectly healthy?"

"I... my ability to resurrect comes at a price," Li Shaojun said, breaking out in a cold sweat. "'Bai' said it's a transfer of damage, Non-Self resurrected, but rather that 'Bai' transfers it. Once he's no longer there to act as an intermediary, all the past death's erosion will backfire on me. No matter how strong my body is, it can't withstand the reverse erosion brought about by various deaths!"

"You don't even know how many times you could die less?" Zhang Xuezhou retorted. "Why are you using such a dangerously dangerous ability without any regard for the consequences?"

"I know I need to die less often," Li Shaojun shouted, "But I'm basically the one who kills me the most!"

How did I kill you?

"You didn't kill me anywhere, but there's an 80% chance my death is related to you!"

"That's because you're incompetent; you have to die every time you try to do something worthwhile!"

"You, surnamed Dong, are so capable, but if you're so tough, don't hire someone as incompetent as me!"

Li Shaojun kept reminiscing, feeling that he had lived a good life since he met Zhang Xuezhou, but he had also died many times over the years because of his involvement in Zhang Xuezhou's affairs.

Li Shaojun had to admit that his skills were indeed a little lacking.

If it weren't for his miraculous resurrection, Li Shaojun felt he would have been dead many years ago.

In terms of Zhang Xuezhou's cultivation level, Li Shaojun felt that his own White Bone were laid bare before him.

He couldn't help but get angry and exchanged a string of insults with Zhang Xuezhou.

"I know who took 'Bai' away, and I know where 'Bai' is being held. I have acquaintances there, and I know what conflicts I can exploit!"

"Please save me!"

Li Shaojun changed his attitude very quickly.

Zhang Xuezhou simply stated his strengths, and Li Shaojun knew that she would probably be inseparable from Zhang Xuezhou for the rest of her life.

Li Shaojun felt that he might not be doing well if Zhang Xuezhou was doing well, but if Zhang Xuezhou was not doing well, he felt like he would die.
