“That manuscript map?” Zhuo Qunfeng gasped. “But that’s the adventure journal you had painstakingly penned in! It has been your treasured possession for more than a decade now! How could you just give it to a buffoon like him? Why don’t we just give him a copy…”
“Shut up! Don’t you think the trouble you’ve gotten into this time is big enough?” Zhuo Yaolong said. “The person who can hurt you like that is in a class on his own! Even a moron would know that this is not a common man! If you bring him a copy, he might not believe it’s real! And even if he did, because of your lack of sincerity, he might not cure you completely! Then, you would only be undermining yourself! If it was not for the fear of this happening, I would have already gone down the mountain and captured him myself! Do you understand now?”
Zhuo Yaolong looked at his grandson though narrowed eyes.
As an experienced old man who had lived hundreds of years, he was consummate in his thinking and understood the choice between sacrifice or gain.
He was willing to give up the precious manuscript map that he had treasured for over ten years so Chen Xiaobei would return his grandson to full health.
If Chen Xiaobei did not heal him completely, the person who would suffer the most damage was Zhuo Qunfeng!
“I understand! You’re doing for me, Grandfather!” Zhuo Qunfeng said though gritted teeth. “When I’m healed, I will work harder to increase my cultivation! I will eventually surpass that buffoon and then I can take grandfather’s manuscript back!”
“Sigh… Idiot!” Zhuo Yaofeng sighed. “You have to befriend powerful people like that, not make him your enemy!”
“Wh… Why…”
“The wise ones will always work towards their own benefits, and the fools will chase after things that might harm them!” Zhuo Qunfeng said. “It’s just a manuscript! A dead object! Losing it won’t cause us any physical damage! But if we make enemies with a powerful man, your injuries this time will become your death the next time!”
Zhuo Qunfeng lay stunned for a minute as he tried to digest what his grandfather was saying. “I will surely remember what you told me today!”
“Go now!”
Zhuo Yaofeng took out an old, tattered journal and shoved it into Zhu Qunfeng’s pocket.
…
Nearby Mount Kunlun.
When the one hour was almost up, Chen Xiaobei and Luo Puti came back to the place they where they used the Returning Bracelet.
The only waited a short while, when Zhuo Qunfeng came running back.
“Mr. Chen! Ms. Luo! The map is in my pocket!” Zhuo Qunfeng said. “This is the journal that my grandfather had personally recorded during his expedition to the Black Desert! My grandfather himself wrote every single word and line in this book! There are even hand-drawn sketches and drawings of the landscape.”
“Oh, the original manuscript?”
Chen Xiaobei and Luo Puti’s eyes both lit up. They did not expect such sincerity to come from Zhuo Qunfeng.
“Puti, examine it and see if it’s real!” Chen Xiaobei handed the journal to Luo Puti.
Luo Puti quickly flipped through the pages and confirmed with confidence, “This is an antique! You can’t fake something like this! It’s real! The things I’ve looked up on the internet correspond to the contents of the journal! In fact, the information in the journal is far more detailed that whatever I have found! This is great! With this book, the chances of finding the Black Desert have increased exponentailly!”
Zhuo Qunfeng chipped in, “Of course it’s real. I wouldn’t dare cheat Mr. Chen! I’m still hoping he would fix my injuries!”
“Heh, you don’t need to insinuate anything. I, Chen Xiaobei, have never gone back on my words before! Brace yourself!”
Chen Xiaobei walked towards Zhuo Qunfeng’s back.
Crack crack crack…
Both of Zhuo Qunfeng’s arms were returned to their original places.
“Oh… Huh? Why doesn’t it hurt?”
Zhuo Qunfeng was getting ready to scream when he realized that the pain in his arms had disappeared.
“Your injuries have fully recovered. That’s why it doesn’t hurt anymore.” Chen Xiaobei replied lazily.
“My god… This is amazing… That was really fast…” Zhuo Qunfeng’s eyes widened in surprise.
It was already frightening enough when at first, Chen Xiaobei bent and contorted Qunfeng’s limbs like a clay doll. Even the few core elders of Kunlun Faction were unable to undo the damage that was done to him. Then just moments ago, Chen Xiaobei fixed his injuries like a walk in the park!
When Zhuo Qunfeng thought of this, he finally understood what his grandfather meant to teach him. Chen Xiaobei was an elite that was immensely powerful!
Befriending Chen Xiaobei could bring them unexpected advantages!
Challenging Chen Xiaobei, on the other hand, would only bring about destruction and danger!
Upon reaching this understanding, Zhuo Qunfeng mustered all his courage and asked, “Will the both of you be interested in joining us on our expedition to the Black Desert? The more we look out for each other, the better it is for all of us!”
Luo Puti looked at Chen Xiaobei for an answer.
Having been shaken by what she had just witnessed today, Luo Puti’s opinion of Chen Xiaobei had now soared through the roof!
She would never again doubt Chen Xiaobei’s strength. In fact, she had already decided to completely depend on Chen Xiaobei!
She was willing to go along with whatever decision Chen Xiaobei would make on this matter!
“Alright, since you’re so earnest, we’ll depart together!” Chen Xiaobei answered.
“Aright! That’s decided then!” Zhuo Qunfeng looked excited.
He knew that Chen Xiaobei was an exceptionally powerful person, and his grandfather had also advised him to befriend Chen Xiaobei.
Kunlun Faction had organized the expedition to Black Dessert for their core disciples with the purpose of cementing bonds among them. It was hoped that as they watched out for each other, they would also endure hardships and danger together.
As the saying goes, a friend in need is a friend indeed. After the expedition, they would all become good friends, or better yet, brothers! This would greatly improve the unity within the faction!
Zhuo Qunfeng had extended the invitation to Chen Xiaobei in the hopes of becoming good friends with him through the experience!
“If everything goes well, we will leave in seven days! Is that alright with you, Mr. Chen?” Zhuo Qunfeng asked.
“Yes!” Chen Xiaobei nodded.
“Alright! Then we’ll meet in Xijiang airport in seven days! We’ll depart together!”
After that, they seperated from each other’s company.
“Xiaobei, why did you agree to go with them?” Luo Puti asked.
“Silly wife! Do you think that we can just explore the Black Desert empty handed? We need food, water, tents… and so much more! These are things we cannot go without! Let Zhuo Qunfeng worry about it so we won’t have to, alright?”
“Yeah… If I was in charge of the preparations, I’m afraid seven days wouldn’t be enough…”
“Alright! Let’s set this problem aside and go!”
Chen Xiaobei grabbed Luo Puti’s wrist.
“Go where?” asked a stunned Luo Puti.
