"Take it!"

Glancing at Pei Haoran, Wang Junze did not reach out to take the Other Shore Flower being handed over, and casually said, "As we agreed before, we split the extra Other Shore Flowers equally."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Junze flicked his wrist and split two more Other Shore Flowers from his hand and tossed them to the Maiden of the Sea.

"Hmm?"

Instinctively catching the Other Shore Flowers, the Maiden of the Sea couldn't help but feel surprised. She originally thought that Wang Junze would, at most, just give her one flower like Pei Haoran, but unexpectedly, he actually took out two more.

"Three flowers each, evenly split!"

Wang Junze casually explained, "I won't go back on my word!"

"???

Hearing this, Pei Haoran was filled with questions. Why do you both get three flowers, while I only get two?

It's not about scarcity but about inequality.

If Wang Junze had only given the Maiden of the Sea one flower, it would have been acceptable. After all, it was indeed Wang Junze who contributed the most in this task, from planning to summoning the Mirage Dragon, and even personally defeating Jiao Yang. No one would complain about him taking a larger share.

However, his contribution was similar to that of the Maiden of the Sea, so why should she receive more?

"Don't look at me like that. Whether you get that last flower or not depends on whether your medicine powder works."

Shrugging, Wang Junze explained softly.

"... Brother Ye, are you serious?"

With these words, not just Pei Haoran but even the Maiden of the Sea and Jiao Yang were stunned.

You already have eight Other Shore Flowers, and yet you're still not satisfied, and you're going to fight for that last one?!

"Of course!"

Looking at Pei Haoran, Wang Junze proudly said, "When I say I'll take them all, I mean it!"

In an instant, Pei Haoran felt a surge of passion.

That was so overbearing!

Even Jiao Yang and Chen Ling had never dared to think about grabbing all the Other Shore Flowers. When Wang Junze first said it, Pei Haoran thought he was just talking nonsense, but he never expected that this would actually become a reality.

This truly is a grand strike!

If they really did round up all nine Other Shore Flowers, this news would spread and cause a frenzy throughout the Nether Sea.

As a participant, he naturally felt honored as well.

Moreover, Wang Junze and the Maiden of the Sea had already been allocated three Other Shore Flowers each, and this last one was practically being seized for him. How could such magnanimity not be admirable?

"Let's do it. I have Blood Spirit Pills here; everyone take one to recover from your injuries, and then we can immediately chase him down. That one-eyed dragon won't get away!"

With a hint of excitement in his eyes, Pei Haoran wasn't stingy and willingly took out Blood Spirit Pills to share with Wang Junze and the Maiden of the Sea.

After all, with the Other Shore Flowers in their possession, there was no need to worry about the side effects of the Blood Spirit Pill.

"I'll keep watch; you two recover from your injuries."

Wang Junze took the Blood Spirit Pills in his hand but didn't intend to take them, just softly instructing.

Firstly, Wang Junze wasn't particularly injured, having only expended a large amount of True Qi, not to the extent of needing a Blood Spirit Pill; secondly, he was unwilling to consume such a sinister elixir.

Furthermore, now he wanted the chance to talk privately with Jiao Yang.

Once Pei Haoran and the Maiden of the Sea went a short distance away to recover their injuries, Wang Junze then turned to Jiao Yang and said, "What secrets does Ji Liuyun hold? Mr. Jiao, you can speak freely now."

The reason he spared Jiao Yang earlier had a lot to do with Ji Liuyun, so naturally, Wang Junze wanted to get this matter clear now.

With his eyelids twitching rapidly and after a moment of silence, Jiao Yang revealed a bitter smile, ultimately not daring to refuse, shaking his head and sighing: "I said that in desperation, just to survive. I can tell you Ji Liuyun's secret, but... I can't give you the person."

"Hmm?"

In an instant, a murderous intent flashed in Wang Junze's eyes.

Earlier he could spare Jiao Yang, so naturally, he could kill him now, without even needing help from the Maiden of the Sea and Pei Haoran; cooperating with the Mirage Dragon, Wang Junze could kill him alone, even if it required paying some price.

Noticing Wang Junze's murderous aura, Jiao Yang quickly explained: "It's not that I'm going back on my word, it's just that... I already handed Ji Liuyun over to Lord Dugu, so, of course, I can't give him to you!"

The person is in Gudu Feng's hands?

Wang Junze was slightly stunned, but after a thought, he wasn't too surprised.

After all, the one who initially ordered a hit on the Profound Moon Sword Sect's disciples was Gudu Feng, and Jiao Yang was merely a pawn in her hands.

"Tell me about the secrets she carries; if you dare deceive me here too... don't blame me for being heartless."

Staring at Jiao Yang, Wang Junze coldly said.

"Li Shang Sword Venerable!"

This time, Jiao Yang dared not hide anything, straightforwardly answering, "It is said that Li Shang Sword Venerable left a residence in the Nether Sea, where there might be the inheritance of Li Shang Sword Venerable, along with various treasures and wealth!"

"Over thirty years ago, Li Shang Sword Venerable wreaked havoc in the Nether Sea, even slaying the Demon King, leaving behind immeasurable wealth!"

"Lord Dugu has been seeking this out for years and is now close to locating the residence... But to open the residence, a disciple of the Profound Moon Sword Sect is required!" Jiao Yang explained again, "We captured these disciples of the Profound Moon Sword Sect to see if we could force them to reveal the Profound Moon Sword Technique, to impersonate a disciple of the Profound Moon Sword Sect. If that didn't work, having Ji Liuyun as a True Disciple, could also open the residence."

It was indeed related to Li Shang Sword Venerable!

In fact, Wang Junze had some suspicions before; he just needed Jiao Yang to confirm it.

Taking a deep breath, Wang Junze asked solemnly, "Li Shang Sword Venerable has been missing for so many years. If there really is a residence left in the Nether Sea, aren't you afraid that Li Shang Sword Venerable might still be there?"

"I don't know about that. If you're really curious... you can ask Lord Dugu yourself."

His eyelids twitching, Jiao Yang continued, "You've stirred up such a commotion this time, surely shaking the entire Nether Sea. If you truly wish to join Lord Dugu, he would certainly accept you. Then... you might have the opportunity to be involved in this matter."

"After all, to open Li Shang Sword Venerable's residence, Lord Dugu does need helpers."

"Mr. Jiao Yang, no need to test me." Glancing at him, Wang Junze said indifferently, "I've already killed Chen Ling; Lady Fang won't spare me. Only by joining Lord Dugu would I have a path for survival. This is also why I spared you."

This was all part of Wang Junze's plan.

After such a massacre, causing such a large upheaval, without protection, he wouldn't be able to continue surviving in the Nether Sea.

Daring to be so ruthless in his actions was, in essence, his way of burning bridges to gain Gudu Feng's trust.
