Chapter 3091: Worry_1

The vice-president was stunned. But the next second, he became incredibly excited and said, "No, I can never agree to this. The Blacksmith Association is your life's work; even if it means breaking a promise, I must ensure its continuation!"

These words contorted Zhen Hua's expression with anger as he scolded, "You... you, you just never learn!"

After saying that, he felt a sharp pain in his heart...

He collapsed onto the ground, cold sweat beading on his forehead...

The vice-president immediately panicked and hurriedly asked with concern, "President, President, are you all right??"

Zhen Hua, enduring the pain, gave him a irritated glance and said, "I'm fine. It's just that I'm getting older and my body isn't what it used to be."

"However, if you anger me a few more times, I probably won't live much longer!"

Most of the injuries in his body were due to years of God forging!

That's why he couldn't stand any agitation now; otherwise, it would trigger pain!

Upon hearing this, the vice-president felt as if he was being pricked by needles inside. After thinking deeply, he finally answered very earnestly, "President, rest assured, I won't do anything that harms the Blacksmith Association any more!"

Zhen Hua's eyes flickered, "Do you promise?"

The former answered without hesitation, "I guarantee it with the name of the vice-president!"

Getting affirmation, Zhen Hua changed from his prior state, and stood up, full of life, with his hands clasped behind his back, saying, "Well then, isn't that settled? This way, I can also deal with those guys from the federation!"

If they don't give the federation an explanation, they are likely not going to let things go easily!

The vice-president was immediately dumbfounded and asked in shock, "President… President, you're, you're really all right?"

He was on his last breath just a moment ago, but now he was lively as a dragon!

Anyone with eyes could see that Zhen Hua was faking it!!

At this moment, he felt like he was being played like a fiddle in the other's hands!!

Zhen Hua said with a touch of pride, "What could be wrong with me? Don't forget, I am the only Divine Craftsman of our time!"

The vice-president's mouth twitched, "Um… but Tang Wulin, the captain of the Shrek Seven Monsters, who is now the Sea God Pavilion Master, also seems to be a Divine Craftsman, right?"

The irony of his previous concern was not lost on him!

Zhen Hua covered his mouth and coughed lightly, "Cough cough, let's not bring up these old stories again. Go to the federation immediately and explain the situation clearly."

The vice-president didn't have much to say and responded as if resigned to fate, "Yes, President. I will head to the federation right away!"

He then prepared to turn around and leave…

But Zhen Hua added unexpectedly, "Oh, and if the federation wants to offer us any help, be sure to refuse!"

He didn't want to offend the federation or the Spirit Pagoda!

So, remaining neutral was the best choice!!

...

Amidst the ruins!

Xie Xie rolled his eyes and panted, "I didn't expect that capturing Life Force would consume so much spiritual power and Soul Power. I feel like I am being completely drained!"

Yue Zhengyu looked at the bun in his hand and expressed, "Yes, if we didn't have Lizhi's food for sustenance, I'd want to strike and then go back to the academy to get a good few days of sleep!"

Xu Xiaoyan wiped the sweat from her forehead and said with a light laugh, "Although it's very exhausting, following Gu Yue and Wulin's method, we indeed captured the Life Force. That's quite the progress."

Yuanen Yehui affirmed this absolutely, "Mm, just a short while ago, we couldn't even sense the presence of Life Force!"

Despite the fact that the method of capturing Life Force was truly unique!

Xie Xie immediately glared at the latter upon hearing this, "Not so long ago?? Ye Hui, are you serious? We've been here for several days already!!"

Seeing his reaction, Yuanen Yehui's lips curled slightly, "What? If you don't want to continue, you're free to leave. I wouldn't object!"

"After all, you're now the number one agile-attack class Soul Master on the Continent!"

Sensing trouble, Xie Xie hurriedly leaned in, chuckling awkwardly, "Heh heh, Ye Hui, how can you say that? We're a couple, of course, I should stick by you!"

It was all Xu Xiaoyan's fault for teaching his Ye Hui to be sarcastic!

Just then, Gu Yuena and Tang Wulin also walked over...

The former asked first, "It seems everyone has been working hard, how are the results?"

Xie Xie came back to his senses and answered truthfully, "Gu Yue, Life Force is too difficult to capture, I've only captured a trace of it!!"

Xu Lizhi whispered from the side, "A trace is already quite good; I couldn't even touch it!"

He had intended to help everyone, but found himself to be more of a hindrance!

So he might as well stay aside and make buns!

Gu Yuena pursed her thin lips, "Only captured a trace? That's about what I expected. How about the others??"

Life Force was not only extremely hard to discover but also had a certain sentience. If it wasn't for everyone having reached the Hyper Douluo or even Ultimate Douluo level,

they probably couldn't have captured even a trace!

Soon, everyone began reporting their situation...

Tang Wulin propped up his chin, pondering, "So it means, apart from Lizhi, only Xie Xie has captured the slightest amount of Life Force."

When named, Xie Xie's face instantly darkened, "Hey hey, Wulin, are you doing this on purpose??"

Tang Wulin denied the possibility, "Xie Xie, I didn't mean anything else, it's just that the total amount everyone has collected isn't much. Our efficiency is too low!"

Xu Xiaoyan asked eagerly, full of anticipation, "Wulin, do you mean you've thought of another method?"

"Unfortunately, no!"

Tang Wulin shook his head, "Apart from Gu Yue's method, nothing else would work!"

Gu Yuena turned to Xu Lizhi, inquiring, "Lizhi, how long have we been here?"

Xu Lizhi counted on his fingers, "About four days have passed!"

On getting the answer, the former's silver eyes showed a trace of complexity, "Four days have passed already? That's longer than I expected!"

In her opinion, collecting a certain amount of Life Force shouldn't take too much time!

Seeming to glimpse her thoughts, Tang Wulin asked doubtfully, "Gu Yue, what's the matter? Do you need to leave for something?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuena shook her head to deny, "No... I'm fine, just a little worried about Spirit Pagoda."

Yue Zhengyu blinked, "Gu Yue, what's there to worry about? Isn't Spirit Pagoda guarded by your subordinates? Surely no one would be foolish enough to provoke it!"

Gu Yuena glanced at him, explaining, "No... that's not the issue. With Di Tian and the others, I'm naturally confident about Spirit Pagoda!"

"It's just that I'm worried the federation might take this opportunity to act..."

The federation had already manufactured God-killing soul-guided missiles. Although she had preemptively ordered most of the Spirit Pagoda members to evacuate the headquarters, the threat remained significant!
