Chapter 1229 The Power of the Curse
Chapter 1229 The Power of the Curse
Sun Wukong glanced at her, muttering a gloomy complaint, and thought to himself: Her temperament is a bit lacking; she's already so eager to give up?
Thinking about this, Sun Wukong was actually starting to consider giving up.
After all, rescuing these two people from that little world was already a way of repaying the favor Pale had done for reminding him.
As for cleaning the curse from these two people's bodies, that's a favor, not a duty.
However, just as Sun Wukong was about to say these words, intending to politely ask Cang Bai and the other person to leave the Third Guild, Cang Bai spoke first.
He said to Sun Wukong with a serious expression, "I know that the curse on us is very troublesome."
“I know that you are my savior, and I shouldn’t be so insistent on asking you to do anything.”
"However, I still hope you can help us. For this, I am willing to give up everything I have to make this curse disappear."
The reason he was willing to spend so much, taking out all the savings he had accumulated in the Pure Guild over the years, was for one thing only.
He knew very well that if the curse wasn't broken, he would surely die from exhaustion.
But he was unwilling to die in this way, so he was determined to find a way to survive no matter what.
And Sun Wukong, who can temporarily dispel this curse, is undoubtedly his biggest lifeline at the moment.
He couldn't think of any other way besides asking Sun Wukong for help.
Moreover, when the curse within them went out of control, Sun Wukong actually managed to bring that power back into their bodies.
This is enough to prove that Sun Wukong's abilities are extraordinary.
Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong looked the man up and down, his face as pale as paper, and asked with a half-smile:
"You said you were willing to give up all your wealth as compensation for this incident."
"But what wealth or assets do you have after leaving the Pure Guild?"
Pale knew that Sun Wukong wouldn't believe him, and he also knew that until he saw anything again, everything he said could only be considered empty promises.
After thinking it over, Pale decided to take out all his possessions and let Sun Wukong take a look.
If Sun Wukong is interested in these things and agrees to make the deal, that would be perfect.
If that doesn't work, they'll have to consider paying other prices to get Sun Wukong's help.
Thinking of the pale scene here, with a slightly uneasy feeling, I took out the items from my space and shared them with Sun Wukong.
There isn't much in the pale space.
In fact, because I left the Pure Guild in a hurry, I left many things behind inside the guild and they were not taken away in time.
This means that everything in this space is of paramount importance to Pale.
Sun Wukong glanced at it, and to be honest, he wasn't very interested in the things inside this space.
The only thing that caught his eye was a seemingly inconspicuous black stone in the space.
If I'm not mistaken, there's a faint trace of the Daoist principles hidden on this stone. If modified, it could be useful for his disciples.
This should allow his disciples to significantly improve their strength in a short period of time.
Moreover, the materials are readily available, and modifications are very convenient.
More importantly, he also wanted to figure out what was going on.
Thinking this, Sun Wukong curled his lip: "The treasures in your space are indeed quite good, but I don't fancy a single one of them..."
"Well, you can't say that. That stone looks pretty good. Give it to me, and I'll try to find a way to break the curse on you, okay?"
Upon hearing Sun Wukong's words, Pale did not hesitate and took out the seemingly inconspicuous stone that Sun Wukong had mentioned.
Pale solemnly handed the stone to Sun Wukong, while recounting his connection with the stone:
“You have a good eye. This stone is imbued with the Daoist principles. I obtained it by chance when I entered a certain small world.”
However, his comprehension was not very good, so even though he knew the great benefits of this stone, he was unable to fully understand its principles.
Sun Wukong glanced at the pale-faced man with a sincere expression and coughed slightly.
He was embarrassed to admit that if it weren't for the Daoist essence contained within the stone, which happened to resonate with his disciples, he wouldn't have even bothered with it.
After all, if you really want to talk about it, he's a man who holds many fragments of laws.
The laws formed from the fragments of those laws are far superior to this sparse Daoist essence, both in quality and quantity.
Sun Wukong abruptly changed the subject: "But don't you regret giving this thing to me? You yourself said it's a rare treasure."
After a moment of silence, Pale finally spoke softly, "So take this before I regret it! Even if I'm unwilling, I need to be alive to regret it!"
Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong didn't mince words and simply put the stone away.
He planned to hand this thing over to his apprentices after this matter was over.
Yin Youyou, who was standing to the side, also spoke up at the right time, saying that she was willing to give up all her wealth in exchange for the opportunity to get Sun Wukong's help.
After all, we can't let Pale bear all the blame alone.
Unfortunately, Sun Wukong didn't care at all about what Yin Youyou had.
Sun Wukong thought for a moment, then glanced at Lu Su, who was standing there in a daze, and suddenly said, "In that case, let's see if your things can compensate the guild leader for his losses!"
Yin Youyou wasn't angry. Upon hearing Sun Wukong's words, she immediately shared her possessions with Lu Su.
As long as there is compensation, she won't be angry no matter what Lu Su does.
Upon hearing this unexpected surprise, Lu Su immediately perked up and began carefully selecting items to compensate for the loss.
Seeing the two getting along so well, Sun Wukong, looking pale, walked to the side and whispered:
"While I haven't been able to completely remove this curse yet, I've unexpectedly discovered its composition!"
Pale paused for a moment upon hearing this. Looking at Sun Wukong's ambiguous smile, he chose to get straight to the point.
"So, what exactly is this curse?"
Sun Wukong raised an eyebrow, then stroked his chin, and after a moment, he organized his thoughts and said:
"Let me put it this way, this curse will directly draw on the resentment of the Pure Guild members before their deaths."
"The more unfortunate you are, and the more resentful you are before you die, the stronger the power of this curse will become."
"And this force will give birth to 'life' and bring someone back to life."
