Chapter 781 Bigger Fish to Fry

　　At the entrance to the Origins Pond of Holy Dimension, the panicked Su Family was gathered. They were all trapped within the enchanted barrier and had tried every method to get out of it but to no avail.

　　In fact, they wanted to retreat as soon as they felt the coercive force from Master Thunder. However, it was already too late by then. Master Thundered needed only a single thought to successfully trap every one of them inside the enchanted barrier.

　　“What should we do, Young Master?” asked Bao Dao worriedly.

　　“Calm down. Even a Wisdom Dictator will have weaknesses,” replied Su Chen without flinching. He experienced a near-death experience before, so to him, this was nothing.Moreover, a Wisdom Dictator was a small-fry compared to the people in the Fallen Immortal Mountain.

　　However, as soon as he said that, the blood-clotting fruit tree and the blood-filled fruit vines suddenly flew toward the void as if being summoned! Su Chen’s expression changed. He immediately tried to pull them back but was blasted away by a terrifying force that forced his head to the ground.

　　“Big talk from trash like you. Indeed, being a Wisdom Dictator doesn’t make one invincible, but you’re not even qualified to cast your eyes on one!” said Master Thunder, cackling in the sky. He stepped on Su Chen’s body and then took the blood-clotting fruit tree and blood-filled fruit vines from his hands.

　　Although he was emitting a peaceful aura, the hair on the people of the Su family immediately stood on ends when they laid eyes on him. Not only that, they felt that their heads were about to explode as if they were under immense pressure that they could not bear at all. It caused their hearts to tremble to no end.

　　The power of a Wisdom Dictator could not be gazed upon directly! Su Changhe looked at Su Chen anxiously. He suppressed his emotions and asked, “What brings you here, Master Thunder?” The look in Master Thunder’s eyes was as sharp as knives. “What is the relationship between you and the two little girls?” The four major families entered the Origins Pond of Holy Dimension, and only the Su family came out. Moreover, they also obtained so many Origins treasures as well as the blood-clotting fruit tree and the blood-filled fruit. It did not take a genius to figure out that they were somehow related to the two little girls and the cow. The members of the Su family heaved a sigh of relief internally when they heard his question, for it meant that Nanan and the others had successfully escaped. “Master Thunder, we’re just acquaintances. They said that they’d help us obtain the treasures in the Holy Dimension in return for the blood-clotting fruit tree and the blood-filled fruit vines,” answered Su Changhe, mixing truth with lies. Of course, he would not reveal their origins, but he also knew that Master Thunder would not easily let the matter go, so decided to craft his answer carefully.

　　“Master Thunder, you should know that it’s impossible for us to bring out the blood-clotting fruit tree and the blood-filled fruit with our strengths alone,” added Third Elder.

　　“Do you think we’ll believe your words?” asked a cultivator of the Heaven Plundering Alliance coldly. “Master Thunder, they’re obviously lying. Should I torture the truth out of them?”

　　Master Thunder shook his head, his face calm. He then smiled and said, “This matter isn’t urgent. They’re like a fish in a barrel now. Let’s play with them slowly.” “What do you have in mind, Master Thunder?”

　　“We’ll give those people a chance since they want the blood-clotting fruit tree and the blood-filled fruit so badly.” Master Thunder’s eyes narrowed slightly as the corners of his lips curled up into a bloodthirsty smile. “We’ll wait at the Su family’s place for them to come. We’ll give them three days, and after three days, we’ll raze the entire place to the ground!”

　　He planned to use the Su family, the blood-clotting fruit tree, and the blood-filled fruit as bait. He would wipe out the entire Su family if Nanan and the others did not come. The Su family was just small potatoes that the world would not miss if they were gone. However, it would be great if they really could capture Nanan and the others by using them as bait. He had a bigger fish to fry after all.

　　“Take them all away and lock them up!”

　　Meanwhile, Nanan and Dragin had already arrived at the Fallen Immortal Mountain. Their little faces were full of anger and they were ready to vent it out.

　　“Miss Dragin, Miss Nanan, you’re back.” The Elite King, who was picking dung, was slightly taken aback when he saw them without Su Chen. “Where’s my helper?”

　　“We met some baddies in the Origins Realm, and Brother Su has most likely fallen into their hands,” said Dragin.

　　“What?! Who dares detain my little helper? Take me there this instant!” roared the Elite King furiously with a face as black as thunder.

　　He had been mentoring Su Chen all this while and found him to be hard-working. He began to give him a heavier workload, which caused him to feel a little maladapted after Su Chen left. Therefore, detaining Su Chen was like slapping him in the face.

　　“It’s useless for you to go there. It’s not as if you can win against them,” said Nanan frankly.

　　This snapped the Elite King out of his rage. The three of them-Nanan, Dragin, and the Milk Cow—were all stronger than him. If even they could not handle the baddies, then Nanan was right. It would be useless for him to go there. “Oh, it’s alright then. I’m fine with picking dung alone. I don’t need any help at all.”

　　Both Nanan and Dragin were dumbfounded as they silently sympathized with Su Chen in their hearts. ‘I pity him for having such an unreliable master.’

　　Then, they continued up the mountain and soon returned to the four-part architecture.

　　“Brother Li, we’re back.”

　　Li Nianfan was comfortably sitting on a chair, sipping tea, and flipping through a book. His face instantly lit up when he saw Nanan and Dragin. “You’re finally back! Did you have fun on your trip?”

　　Dragin pouted and said, “For the most part.”

　　Li Nianfan noticed the expressions on their faces and could not help but ask, “What’s wrong?”

　　“We were having so much fun, and we also found two new fruit trees. But then, some baddies tried to kill us when we tried to bring the fruit trees back, and we lost the fruit trees during our escape,” said Nanan vehemently.

　　‘Someone tried to kill them?’ Li Nianfan’s heart skipped a beat. He found the whole thing both worrying and funny. How could they still worry about the fruit trees when they were being pursued?

　　“Don’t think about it too much. They’re just fruit trees, nothing to worry about. I’m just glad that the two of you came back safe and sound,” said Li Nianfan immediately.

　　“But we managed to bring back some of the fruits, Brother Li.” Dragin placed the fruits on the table as she spoke. It was the blood-filled fruit.

　　Li Nianfan looked at the small red fruits on the table, raised his brows, and said in surprise, “Those are…wolfberries?”.

　　Wolfberries were the holy grail when it came to nourishing the body. He never thought he would get to see them in the Immortal Realm. He put down the book in his hand and carefully looked at the wolfberries.

　　Dragin and Nanan looked at the title of the book curiously. They saw that printed on the cover of the book were a string of words. ‘A Course on Chinese Martial Arts’.
