Chapter 4032 Hurt each other

Actually, we know Wuwei Zhenren's temperament quite well. He certainly wouldn't refuse to lend us the Nine Cloud Compass just because we ate his pet. Putting aside everything else, there's also the relationship between Fatty Quail and Liu Datou and him. Even if he doesn't want to deal with us, he'll still lend us the Nine Cloud Compass out of respect for those two old guys.

However, Master Zhiqing did not think so. He came to this island to borrow the Nine Cloud Compass from Master Wuwei. He was asking for a favor, and then he ate the other person's pet. He must feel very guilty.

We can be angry with Li Chao, but Master Zhiqing is truly a good elder.

Seeing him lower his head to thank us younger generation, we all felt a little guilty.

The slovenly Taoist priest immediately said, "Master Zhiqing, there's no need to thank me. Eighth Master and Master Wuwei are old friends. He will definitely lend you the Nine Cloud Compass. He's not that stingy."

After offering some words of persuasion, Master Zhiqing left and went straight to Li Chao. I don't know what he said to him, but I saw that Li Chao, who was not far away, still looked angry.

This guy really needs to change his temper. He's not a bad person at heart, but he has a terrible temper, so he basically has no friends.

I reckon that Master Zhiqing watched this kid grow up, which is why he cares about him so much.

It's usually Li Chao who gets into trouble, and Master Zhiqing covers for him.

That night, we stayed on the small island of Master Wuwei. The slovenly Taoist priest and I prepared many tents and set up camp in an open space on the island.

Then I noticed that Li Chao and Master Zhiqing seemed unprepared, so I also sent them a tent.

He even personally handed it to Li Chao, saying, "Brother Chao, the temperature difference is big at night, and you'll sleep more soundly inside the tent. You guys can use this tent."

Li Chao, who usually had a bad temper, would have definitely ignored it, but this time was different. He not only accepted the tent but also thanked him.

He said thank you very softly, as if he was a little embarrassed to say it.

Getting Li Chao to say thank you would be worse than killing him.

When I had nothing to do that evening, I found the slovenly Taoist priest, called him to a secluded corner, and secretly took out the jar of ginseng wine that Third Master Qiao had given me from the Dragon-Tiger Mirror. I handed it to the slovenly Taoist priest and said, "Luo Laoliu, this is for you."

The disheveled Taoist priest paused for a moment when he saw the wine jar I handed him: "Why are you giving me this, kid? My Moutai tastes better than this."

“This is really different. This jar of wine was made by Master Qiao using 500-year-old ginseng, and he also added many other precious herbs. It has the effects of prolonging life, nourishing yin and tonifying the kidneys, and its uses are endless.” I said with a wicked smile.

Upon hearing this, the slovenly Taoist priest's eyes widened immediately, and he was about to open the wine jar.

I quickly stopped him: "No, please. The aroma of this wine is too strong. Just smelling it could make you drunk. I drank a few glasses and slept for a whole day and night. Take it home and share it with your sister-in-law. I guarantee it will make her feel better and you will feel better too..."

"Brother Wu is so thoughtful, always thinking of his brother when there's something good to be had. I'm so touched." The slovenly Taoist said, and without any hesitation, he put the item directly into his Qiankun Eight Treasures Pouch.

"There's nothing I can do, we're such good friends. Ever since I met you, your kidneys have been constantly injured, and you've always been so weak. I'm just telling you to take good care of yourself. Every time I see you come out of the Maoshan Sect, you look quite pale," I said with a smile.

"You old bachelor, you're no good to yourself. Your wife ran away, and now you're still using the old craft passed down from your ancestors. Your hands must be calloused from all that, right?" The slovenly Taoist priest looked at me with a wicked grin.

"Luo Laoliu, you shouldn't hit someone in the face. I kindly gave you the medicinal wine, and you actually mocked me?" I was very angry.

"Come on, let's hurt each other. Who told you to always say I'm weak..." The slovenly Taoist priest rolled his eyes at me.

"It's a fact that you're lying, everyone knows that."

"So it's true that your wife ran away. If she hadn't, you wouldn't need to. Am I wrong?" The slovenly Taoist priest winked at me.

"Luo Laoliu, I'll fight you to the death!" I stretched out my hands to grab the slovenly Taoist priest's neck, and the kid turned and ran away.

"Getting impatient, getting impatient... Look at you, you can't even take a joke..." The slovenly Taoist priest laughed and ran far away.

That bastard, I shouldn't have given him the medicinal wine; he's too weak to walk.

We slept on the island for one night, and just as dawn was breaking, the Immortal Wuwei appeared on our side, woke us up, and said that it was about time to set off.

Afterwards, I went over and greeted Master Zhiqing and Li Chao, and then we walked together toward the edge of the island.

The fishing boat that the special investigation team assigned to me was still waiting over there. We boarded the boat together, and a few hours later we docked.

Then, Master Wuwei led us to the edge of the cliff. He held the Nine Cloud Compass in his hand and kept tapping on it with one hand, probably trying to determine the location of the Fire Domain.

The Nine Clouds Disc was covered with dense runes, making one dizzy. It was unknown which master had created this magical artifact, but it ended up in the hands of the Immortal Wuwei, which can be considered to make the best use of it.

After waiting for a while, Master Wuwei handed the Nine Cloud Compass to me and solemnly said, "Be careful when you get to the Fire Domain. Remember what I told you: do not go to the very edge of the Fire Domain. That place connects to the Netherworld. Once you get there, you may not be able to come back. Think things through. I will wait for you to return safely."

I took the Nine Clouds Disc and said with a smile, "Master Wuwei, don't worry. We've been to other spaces many times before, we have experience."

"It's almost time, you can leave now." Master Wuwei waved his hand.

Immediately, our group stood on the edge of the cliff. Below, the mist swirled and the bottom was invisible; just looking down made us dizzy.

Li Chao and Master Zhiqing were somewhat bewildered and looked nervous.

"Brother Wu... are we going to jump off a cliff? If we fall, we'll be torn to pieces!" Li Chao looked at me with some fear.

"Don't worry, it'll be fine. Everyone grab each other's arms and jump off the cliff together. That way, we won't get separated when we reach the Fire Domain. Master Wuwei has already located the Fire Domain for us. As long as we jump down from here, we'll be there soon." Even though I said that, I was still a little nervous.

Immediately, everyone stood in a row, gripping each other's arms tightly, when they heard Master Wuwei behind them shout "Jump!"

A moment later, we all jumped off the cliff...
