144 The Treasure Map
Zhao Xiaoqi sighed and said, “What they want is a treasure map.”
“A treasure map?”
“That’s right.” Zhao Xiaoqi took out a map made of goatskin from her pocket and said, “I spent a lot of money to get this when I was in school. I originally planned to go with you guys in the secret realm, but I didn’t expect to get separated and be targeted by these two people.”
“I see.”
!!
Lu Benwei learned everything and began to study the map.
The treasure location on the map was a gathering place for spirit light monsters. It was at the border between the mid-grade and low-grade areas, and it was not far from here.
“Let’s go together.” Lu Benwei suggested.
Zhao Xiaoqi nodded and followed Lu Benwei.
The two of them had only walked for a moment when they heard an intense battle ahead.
As they were approaching the gathering place of the spirit light monsters, Lu Benwei was a little worried. “Let’s go take a look first to avoid any mistakes.”
Zhao Xiaoqi did not say anything and ran forward with Lu Benwei.
Before the two of them could step forward, the violent sounds of battle suddenly stopped and a few more teleportation arrays buzzed.
“Someone was eliminated?!” Lu Benwei and Zhao Xiaoqi exclaimed at the same time, and their steps unconsciously quickened.
It was also at this moment that a clear and beautiful voice came from the source of the voice.
“If you want to fight with me, you should go home and practice for a few more years.”
“It’s Chu Yan!” Zhao Xiaoqi was overjoyed and quickened her pace. Lu Benwei also followed.
Seeing Zhao Xiaoqi and Lu Benwei coming together, Chu Yan went forward happily. “Annoying fellow, Qiqi!”
Zhao Xiaoqi saw Chu Yan with three or four people and could not help but frown. “Yan Yan, what’s going on?”
“This is my new little brother. He just taught a lesson to the people who coveted our treasure map,” Chu Yan said calmly.
“A treasure map? What treasure map?” Zhao Xiaoqi’s face changed slightly.
“This is it!”
Chu Yan took out a parchment map from her arms, and the hidden treasure spot on it was the same as the one in Zhao Xiaoqi’s hands. In an instant, Zhao Xiaoqi’s face turned darker than the bottom of a pot.
“Zhao Xiaoqi, how much did you spend on the treasure map?” Lu Benwei said with a gloating tone.
Zhao Xiaoqi gritted her teeth. “That profiteer. He said that he’d only give me one. He asked for 100,000 academic credits!”
“100,000 academic credits? That’s almost two months’ worth of savings, right?”
Zhao Xiaoqi’s heart broke into pieces.
Lu Benwei laughed so hard that his stomach hurt, and it took a long time for him to recover.
Chu Yan rolled her eyes at Lu Benwei and then turned to comfort her. “Alright, Qiqi. Don’t be sad. I’ll bring you to meet my little brother.”
Then, Chu Yan pulled Zhao Xiaoqi to introduce her to her new little brother.
There was a total of three people, and all of them were freshmen. One of the taller men was called Dugu, and he was a warrior. The remaining two were magicians, one was called Qian Hai, and the other was called Gu Xuan.
“She’ll be your second sister! You three treat her like you treat me,” Chu Yan introduced happily.
“Hello, second sister!”
The three of them greeted Zhao Xiaoqi in unison, obviously tamed by Chu Yan. After all, who would not like a powerful and beautiful big sister? Besides, Chu Yan’s reputation was not small among the freshmen.
Chu Yan paused and glanced at Lu Benwei. “As for that person, I’m sure you know him. His name is Lu Benwei.”
The three of them looked at each other excitedly. Chu Yan and Lu Benwei were the two strongest among the first-year students. They would definitely get a lot of benefits if they followed the two of them.
“Lu Benwei, leader Chu Yan, don’t worry. We’ll definitely keep our word when we hunt the spirit light beasts.” The three of them promised Chu Yan.
“What should we do next?” Zhao Xiaoqi asked.
Lu Benwei thought for a while and said, “Since this map isn’t unique, there’s no guarantee that other people will have it. Let’s not delay any further and not let others get it first.”
Chu Yan felt that Lu Benwei was right. “Yes, if we’re late, we might not even get a tiny portion of it.”
Lu Benwei’s group of six left.
“Everyone, please wait!” Suddenly, a shout stopped them. The voice was right beside them, but they could not see the figure.
“Who is it?” Lu Benwei immediately asked.
With a “poof” sound, a dead tree stump turned into a man.
“You’re a ninja?” Lu Benwei and the others asked at the same time, and their nerves began to tense up.
Ninja was a class that changed from a stage one assassin to a ninja that could use all sorts of mysterious Ninjutsu.
The ninja seemed to have arrived a long time ago. If he had not spoken, no one would have noticed him.
Seeing Lu Benwei’s unfriendly expression, the ninja smiled. “Don’t worry, I don’t have any bad intentions.”
After a pause, the ninja said, “Let me introduce myself first. My name is Ye Kaixuan. I’m a second-year student at the assassin academy. I have something to discuss with Lu Benwei and Chu Yan.”
Lu Benwei was stunned and asked, “What is it?”
“It’s not a big deal,” Ye Kaixuan said with a sincere expression, “I just want to team up with your team and head to the gathering place of the spirit light monsters.”
Ye Kaixuan glanced at the sheepskin treasure map in Lu Benwei’s hand. At this time, Lu Benwei and the others also noticed that Ye Kaixuan was holding the same treasure map in his hand.
“Why should we join forces with you?” Chu Yan felt that Ye Kaixuan was hiding a dagger behind his smile, so she asked coldly.
“It’s because I know one more thing than you,” Ye Kaixuan said with a faint smile.
Lu Benwei’s eyes narrowed, and he asked, “Unless you tell us this information, how are we going to weigh the pros and cons?”
“It’s fine. Do you guys know how many spirit light monsters there are in this gathering place?” Ye Kaixuan asked. As he spoke, he stuck out a finger.
“A thousand?” Lu Benwei tried to make a big guess.
“No, it’s 3,000!”
Lu Benwei was speechless.
“I’m just joking, Junior Lu Benwei won’t blame me, right?” Ye Kaixuan chuckled.
Lu Benwei controlled his temper and asked, “Are you telling the truth about the 3,000 spirit light monsters?”
3,000 spiritual light monsters were a huge number. Moreover, spiritual light monsters were different from demonic monsters. Although they were divided into different groups, they were able to unite. Therefore, it was simply impossible for six people to devour 3,000 spiritual light monsters.
“I’m not lying!”
Lu Benwei was lost in thought when Chu Yan asked, “How many people are there on your team? What are their levels?”
