Zhou Yu saw Lin Weidong leaving in a hurry.
He also thought that the special forces team really couldn't do without him.
So he nodded and did not stop him, "Elder Lin, take care. Remember to notify me when you return in a few days."
Lin Weidong chuckled, "Are you asking me to come over for a meal?"
Zhou Yu readily agreed.
After all, he wasn't the one cooking the meals.
It was just a matter of adding another pair of chopsticks!
Lin Weidong waved his hand and got into his car after leaving the villa.
After Lin Weidong had completely driven away.
Zhou Yu returned home.
He saw.
Zhu Ling'er and Su Yu Yan were curiously gathered around the table, examining the brocade boxes.
Zhou Yu had not closed the boxes earlier.
Now, Zhu Ling'er and the two of them were staring at them!
"Zhou Yu, did Elder Lin give you all these things?" Su Yu Yan asked in surprise.
In her opinion, Lin Weidong was always an unattainable figure.
Now, not only did he often come over for meals, but he also gave Zhou Yu so many things?
Su Yu Yan came from a second-rate family and had less experience than Zhu Ling'er.
But that didn't mean she couldn't see that these items were all treasures!
"You could say Elder Lin gave them to me."
"How are they? Do you like any of them? You can take them back."
Zhou Yu said carelessly.
These things were obtained with Elder Lin's help from Leng Xue.
So in Zhou Yu's eyes, it was no different from Elder Lin giving them to him.
However, these were just some common items.
Zhou Yu was not interested!
Zhu Ling'er looked them over and shook her head, "These are gifts from someone else, how can we take them?"
"Yes, how about we help you display them in your home?" Su Yu Yan agreed.
The two of them felt too embarrassed to accept them for free!
What's more, Zhu Ling'er recognized them.
Several items in the brocade boxes were priceless!
Zhu Ling'er's mind was more agile than Su Yu Yan's.
Zhou Yu could have so many priceless treasures sent to him, which could only mean one thing.
It was that he had helped someone greatly during his absence.
Otherwise, where would there be any free lunches in the world?
This made Zhu Ling'er even more hesitant to accept them.
"That's fine too. They are just ordinary items anyway. It's their good fortune to be liked by you. It doesn't matter if you take them."
Zhou Yu said with a smile.
Zhu Ling'er and Su Yu Yan both gave Zhou Yu a playful glare.
This boastful fellow, saying such things in front of them?
"Don't regret it, I'll clear you out then!" Zhu Ling'er said with feigned anger.
Zhou Yu burst into laughter.
There were only so many things in the house, what did it matter if they were all taken?
Besides, Zhou Yu believed that with Zhu Ling'er's character, she would never do such a thing!
Just as the three of them were joking.
Su Yu Yan casually picked up a stone from the brocade box and held it, saying curiously.
"This thing is quite strange, it looks like a stone, yet it looks like jade, and there's a bit of purple floating on it."
"It looks like a common stone."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu's gaze also fell on the strange stone.
He saw.
One side of the stone was pure white jade, appearing crystal clear.
The other side was a dark brown rock surface.
Within the rock surface, there was a faint hint of purple!
Suddenly, Zhou Yu's heart stirred.
"Let me see."
Zhou Yu said, taking the stone into his hand.
He gently gripped it...
"This is Hong Meng Stone!"
Zhou Yu's face lit up with joy.
Zhu Ling'er and Su Yu Yan exchanged glances, surprised, "This is also Hong Meng Stone?"
The one Zhou Yu bought from the auction house before looked completely different from this one!
Zhou Yu nodded affirmatively, saying with delight.
"The Hong Meng Stone we bought from the auction house before only absorbed a small amount of Hong Meng purple energy."
"But this one is a true treasure!"
"See this dark brown side? It's actually that the jade absorbed so much Hong Meng purple energy that it turned black from the purple!"
Instantly, Zhu Ling'er and Su Yu Yan were stunned.
Neither of them could have imagined that something they casually picked out was such a great treasure!
They knew that the Hong Meng Stone from the auction house had been sold at an exorbitant price.
This one, in terms of quality and substrate, was much better than the previous one.
If it were put up for auction...
"Help me look, are there any similar items."
Zhou Yu said happily.
He had originally thought that the special forces team were all ordinary people.
And the supplies they sent would mostly be common items.
Unexpectedly, there was such a great treasure!
Su Yu Yan and Zhu Ling'er also perked up and searched through the brocade boxes again.
This time, all three of them examined them carefully, fearing they would miss anything.
Unfortunately.
There was only one Hong Meng Stone.
There were no more to be found!
"There's nothing special, the rest are just gold, silver, and jade," Zhu Ling'er said regretfully.
Zhou Yu smiled, "It doesn't matter, to have found this one is already great fortune!"
Not everyone recognized Hong Meng Stone.
Even those who had reached the Houtian Huajin realm.
Might not recognize Hong Meng Stone if they saw it!
So Zhou Yu boldly guessed.
It must have been confiscated by Leng Xue and the others during their mission.
But it was mistaken for ordinary gold, silver, and jade and put together.
Then, by some twist of fate, it was sent to Zhou Yu.
"I'll go upstairs to rest first. These remaining items are truly useless to me, take them if you want."
Zhou Yu said, holding the Hong Meng Stone, his voice tinged with joy.
He quickly returned to his room.
Closed the door.
And eagerly took out the Hong Meng Stone he had bought at the auction, comparing it closely with the one he had just obtained.
The more he looked, the more excited Zhou Yu became!
"It seems that breaking through the eighth layer of the Nine Yang Art to reach the ninth layer is not a problem."
Zhou Yu murmured to himself.
He had been worried before, having only encountered one Hong Meng Stone.
If he only relied on absorbing the streak of purple energy from the horizon at dawn.
He didn't know how long it would take!
Now, the appearance of this Hong Meng Stone was like timely rain!
Zhou Yu eagerly held the newly acquired Hong Meng jade stone and directly entered meditation!
Three days passed in a flash.
Zhou Yu's daily routine was very regular.
He would get up at five in the morning and begin cultivating.
After absorbing the streak of purple energy from the horizon, he would go downstairs for breakfast.
Then he would start practicing his boxing techniques.
He would practice until noon, have lunch, and then return to his room to absorb the Hong Meng Stone.
It could be said that.
Except for eating, drinking, and answering nature's call, Zhou Yu almost never left his room!
On the other hand, Su Yu Yan and Zhu Ling'er.
They were already at an age where they couldn't sit still.
While Zhou Yu was in meditation, the two of them had gone shopping countless times.
Each time they returned with bags full of purchases.
The Cloud Lantern Heavenly Palace thus became more lively.
Three days later.
Zhou Yu sensed that another lock in the eighth layer had been opened.
He couldn't help but let out a breath!
Only one last lock remained.
As long as he could open this lock, Zhou Yu would step into the ninth layer!
