Xiao Chen reached out, took them, and stored them in his Vast Sea Ring.
"It was no trouble at all. We were just offering what little help we could."
Qiu Fanghui hurriedly interjected, "What should we do next? We await your instructions, Taoist."
That was indeed the crucial question.
There were about six days left. Continuing to travel with this squad didn't seem appropriate.
Xiao Chen himself didn't mind, but they might get caught in the crossfire later on.
With this in mind, he decided to be direct to gauge their reactions. "I plan on heading to the core region to see if I can contend for the Relic's inheritance."
Upon hearing this, Yu Zhenyang and Ma Wenbo exchanged a look.
They had been reluctant to venture into the core region in the first place, let alone fight over an inheritance.
Qiu Fanghui, however, immediately declared his position. "Golden Light Taoist, your strength is profound. In my opinion, if you make a move, victory is a foregone conclusion."
