Chapter 0277: 0277
"Huh?" Wu Yu had forgotten about these .
For martial cultivators, there were many ways to increase one's wealth . This included looking for treasures of the world and working for their sects . While outside of their sects, the real way to get rich quickly was to plunder the items of others .
As the saying went: Killing was for seizing the treasures of others .
Many people killed for the purpose of getting the treasures of others .
If the person died, his belongings would eventually be taken by others . Therefore, in the world of dao, it was a natural thing for one to take away the belongings of the enemies he had killed .
Naturally, if one were to just kill rampantly for their belongings, it would be considered a sin . Ordinary orthodox martial cultivators wouldn't resort to committing such sins .
There was another type of circumstances . For example, there were thousands of cultivators that had died in Qingsang City and the Lan Ling Sect . Even if each one of them only had a little wealth, the sum would still be astronomical . However, they were all innocent victims . Wu Yu wouldn't lower himself to the point of searching them for their belongings .
Naturally, even if he had done so, it wouldn't be seen as overboard . It was the same reasoning when Wu Yu was searching for treasures in the ancient battlefield previously . The fact was that if a person died, the treasures they held wouldn't mean anything since they couldn't bring them along to the afterlife .
When Jiu Ying handed these Sumeru Pouches to Wu Yu, but Wu Yu waved his hand and said, "We got him together . I can't just take all of them . "
To his astonishment, Jiu Ying threw these Sumeru Pouches into Wu Yu hands directly and replied, "The cultivation method of demons is different from humans . I have no use for most things from ghostly cultivators . If you take them back to Shushan, you might be able to exchange them for some merit points . Truthfully speaking, I have no use for these items . Moreover, I have a very high standing in the Endless Demon Seas . I'm sure you have guessed this . I can basically get as many resources like these as I wish . "
His last sentence made Wu Yu feel really bottled up . The things that he had to risk his life to obtain were readily available to Nangong Wei and Jiu Ying, who enjoyed high standings . “I really can't compare to them in this aspect . . . “
Jiu Ying was more decisive in making decisions . If Wu Yu were to hesitate further, he would likely throw them on the floor . Jiu Ying was able to tell that Wu Yu probably didn't enjoy a high status in Shushan . Otherwise, he wouldn't be here for this type of mission . This wealth was something that Wu Yu would really need .
Since that was the case, Wu Yu didn't reject again .
Every single Sumeru Pouch was incomparably huge . Among which, one of the Sumeru Pouches held many corpses . He Taozi and others were also kept within it . The first thing Wu Yu did was retrieve their bodies . As for the valuables that were on them, Ghostly Wings of the Black Mountain had probably separated them to another Sumeru Pouch he held .
The dead deserved the most respect . Wu Yu placed their bodies down . One of them had already been eaten, leaving only four corpses . All Wu Yu could do now was wait for the people from Shushan before sending them back to Shushan .
Recalling his meeting with them at the Violet Sun Sword Palace, they were looking down on him since the start . However, they had all become corpses . Destiny was really something that was hard to fathom .
Wu Yu flipped through the other Sumeru Pouches briefly and was shocked by the contents . Ghostly Wings of the Black Mountain had probably killed countless people . Adding the fact that he had no fixed accommodation, he probably carried all his valuables with him .
His items were messy and Wu Yu couldn't get a good sense in the first instance . Among which, there were 10 spiritual immortal treasures . He Taozi's sword was also part of the collection . Moreover, there were various dao techniques for ghostly cultivators . As Ghostly Wings of the Black Mountain was engrossed with spirit designs, there were several books on spirit designs . However, most of these spirit design books were evil and weren't suitable for Wu Yu .
There were also various kinds of immortal essences, talismans, and precious treasures . For immortal essences, there was even quite a number of them with three spiritual marks .
Although Ghostly Wings of the Black Mountain didn't specialize in refining immortal medicines, he had over 3,000 Golden Essence Pills within several Sumeru Pouches . That was equivalent to 3,000 merit points! A portion of them probably came from He Taozi and the group . It was just that they had been mixed together and Wu Yu couldn't tell which belonged to whom, and separating them would be difficult .
Clearly, Ghostly Wings of the Black Mountain killed to plunder the treasures of others . However, he likely wasn't interested in the belongings of the martial cultivators in Qingsang City and therefore did not waste his time to collect from them .
3,000 Golden Essence Pills could be considered a large sum . Baili Feihong, who was much stronger than Ghostly Wings of the Black Mountain, probably didn't have that many . After all, buying various immortal treasures and everyday training would exhaust these resources quickly .
These 3,000 Golden Essence Pills had basically resolved Wu Yu's poverty issue . One should note that his reward for this mission was 500 merit points, which was considered very high .
Ghostly Wings of the Black Mountain crafted spirit designs frequently, and this would exhaust Golden Essence Pills rapidly . It was a pleasant surprise to Wu Yu that he had maintained over 3,000 Golden Essence Pills with him .
However, Wu Yu remained calm . As He Taozi and the rest were Shushan disciples, based on the rules of the sect for disciples, those who died in battle shall have their valuables returned to Shushan . Therefore, Wu Yu estimated that he would likely have to return a portion of these resources .
He did not delve into the items left behind by Ghostly Wings of the Black Mountain . This was because he knew that he was likely going to bid farewell to Jiu Ying .
The people from Shushan would be arriving soon . It wouldn't be safe for Jiu Ying to remain behind .
Jiu Ying pursed his lips and said, "In that case, I shall get going now . Wu Yu, it's destiny that let us encounter each other in this place among the billions of lives in the world . Today, we shall bid goodbye to each other . Hopefully, we have the opportunity to meet again . "
Wu Yu replied, "We have a long future ahead . As long as we stay alive, we will definitely meet again . I just hope that we won't be enemies then . "
