Chapter 2865: Chapter 2885: If you must blame, blame your own greed, blame your own bad fortune!

Zhu Yuqiu had not noticed anything strange in her father’s words and nodded without hesitation, "Of course I am willing to do anything to help father recover!"

Taoist Duan Tian spoke with a tone of satisfaction, "Good, my dear daughter."

Zhu Yuqiu inquired, "Father, what do I need to do?"

Taoist Duan Tian’s voice was gentle as he said, "I need your body to nourish my Divine Soul..."

Zhu Yuqiu’s eyes widened in surprise, "My body?"

Taoist Duan Tian explained, "My body has lost all vitality, like dead wood that can’t be revived, completely useless. Our blood is connected, your body can nourish my Primordial Spirit, this task can only be done by you, others can’t."

Zhu Yuqiu blinked, "Nourish the Primordial Spirit, and then?"

Taoist Duan Tian smiled kindly, "Once my Primordial Spirit is restored, I can then find a suitable body to possess and be reborn."

Zhu Yuqiu exclaimed joyfully, "Good, how should I do it?"

Taoist Duan Tian chuckled, "Dear daughter, are you agreeing to it?"

Zhu Yuqiu replied without any hesitation, "I agree, you are my father; to save you, I am willing to do anything! I thought you had died at the hands of the Thousand Demon Monarch, and to avenge you, I even sought the master of the Spring God Palace to seek revenge for you..."

Taoist Duan Tian comforted softly, "My dear daughter, you have suffered. However, I am not dead after all, so don’t trouble yourself so much. I will take you away from the Spring God Palace, I will personally seek revenge against the Thousand Demon Monarch!"

Zhu Yuqiu spoke aggrievedly, "Palace lord Jiang Wanli colluded with the Demon Race, betraying the Immortal Realm, and was wanted by the Book Sea Pavilion; the entire Spring God Palace was condemned, and everyone was captured. If it wasn’t for you finding someone to come, I’m afraid none of us direct disciples of the palace lord would have survived..."

"Colluding with the Demon Race?"

Taoist Duan Tian was shocked, "How could the Demon Race appear in the Bitter Sea Immortal Domain?"

The Primordial Spirit of Taoist Duan Tian had been hiding in the Sun Moon Divine Dragon Cup, which Lin Chen placed in a Spatial Ring, hence he was completely unaware of what was happening outside.

Lin Chen had been cautious around Taoist Duan Tian, so his understanding of Lin Chen was limited to their initial encounter. In his view, Lin Chen was an inexperienced member of the junior generation with some strength but not much, which was the main reason why he had chosen Lin Chen.

Initially, he had quietly summoned Lin Chen but dared not let the Saint of Thieves, Sun Yixiao, find out, fearing that Sun might kill him directly, while Lin Chen’s strength seemed much weaker and easier to control.

Zhu Yuqiu also had only a vague understanding of the matter; she only got wind of the situation when the Spring God Palace was surrounded and she was captured, learning that the palace lord had colluded with the Demon Race and brought calamity upon the Spring God Palace.

"I am not sure myself; all I heard is that the Demon Race has been annihilated, the palace lord is a fugitive and wanted, and the entire Spring God Palace was destroyed. It was all thanks to father arriving in time and having someone take me away from the Book Sea Pavilion. Otherwise, even if I had not died, I would have ended up a slave to be sold, with no chance of redemption."

Taoist Duan Tian’s voice was filled with surprise, "This kid took you away from the Book Sea Pavilion? He had that much influence?"

Zhu Yuqiu answered doubtfully, "Isn’t he the person you found? Don’t you know?"

Taoist Duan Tian replied, "I encountered him while I was hiding. He was following a Quasi-Saint at the time. I was afraid of being discovered by that Quasi-Saint, and since this kid seemed honest and easy to fool, I chose him to bring me to find you. In truth, I didn’t know him at all."

Zhu Yuqiu asked, "Why did he help you, what benefit did you offer him?"

Taoist Duan Tian responded, "I promised that if he brought me to you, I would give him the Sun Moon Divine Dragon Cup along with all of my collected treasures..."

Zhu Yuqiu’s eyes grew wide, "The Sun Moon Divine Dragon Cup is your life-bound magical treasure, and you gave it to him?"

Taoist Duan Tian explained, "He was quite wary of me, and I was afraid he would ignore me and tell the Quasi-Saint he was with, so I made a grand promise and swore not to harm him, and only then did he agree."

Zhu Yuqiu looked at the Sun Moon Divine Dragon Cup in the distance, her gaze flickered, then settled on resolute fierceness, "Father, do you know his strength?"

Taoist Duan Tian, as if anticipating Zhu Yuqiu’s question, answered without hesitation, "A Daluo Ultimate Immortal. Daughter, what is your strength now?"

"Lower Grade Great Luo Initial Immortal."

Taoist Duan Tian chuckled, "That’s enough, a Lower Grade Great Luo Initial Immortal against a Daluo Ultimate Immortal is entirely a crushing defeat. My dear daughter, you wouldn’t want the Sun Moon Divine Dragon Cup to end up in his hands, would you?"

Zhu Yuqiu immediately understood her father’s intent and smiled sweetly, "An Innate Spiritual Treasure should not fall into the hands of another. He was brought here by father, so I am not bound by his favor."

"An Innate Spiritual Treasure, the life-bound magical treasure of a Quasi-Saint, and he, with such little strength, dares to covet it. If he dies, blame his own greed, blame his ill-fortune!"
