The atmosphere fell silent for a moment.
Elder Nangong suppressed his urge to spit out blood. He said, "… Mhm, not too slow. You have been working hard indeed."
He felt his heart was bleeding out. His consciousness was being sucked away.
Elder Lin's and Saint Shenwu's mouths twitched too. They didn't want to talk at all.
Lu Ze felt relieved and smiled. "Yes? This is balancing work and play."
Elder Lin's mouth twitched. "Yes, yes, yes…"
Saint Shenwu grinned. "But don't be too proud. The Blade Demon Race hasn't done anything yet during this period, but they probably have plans under the surface. You guys need to quickly reach the cosmic system state."
Lu Ze nodded. "I understand."
Lu Ze thought of something and said, "By the way, elders, my cultivation level improved. I can gather better energy orbs. Could you check if they are useful?"
