Chapter 321
“Senior Su, the dead will not come back to life. We should focus on the present and the living. Why don’t you consider how you’re going to distribute all these Black Crystal Reeds!” Yun Jiuge told Su Junqing as she emptied the sack of Black Crystal Reeds from around her waist.
Earlier she had specially swum to the deepest regions of the Black Pond and gathered a bunch of top quality Black Crystal Reeds that were over a hundred years old.
The Black Crystal Reeds that Yun Jiuge had brought back were each approximately three feet long, and they continued to give off a faint light even after having left the water. It was easy to tell that every single one of them was of the highest quality.
“These are all top quality Black Crystal Reeds. You’ll be able to make your way across the Death Swamp with just one of them.” Su Junqing pulled himself together and began distributing the Black Crystal Reeds to the disciples.
Even after handing out one Black Crystal Reed each to over 700 disciples, there were still a lot of them left.
The leftover Black Crystal Reeds were automatically given to Su Junqing for safekeeping.
At this moment, Yun Jiuge spoke up, “Why don’t we give each disciple one more Black Crystal Reed? It’s always better to be prepared for the worst.”
“That’s right! There should be more than enough for all of us. I’m sure there’ll still be quite a few of them left even after each of us takes one more,” Little Fatty added as he concurred with Yun Jiuge’s words.
The other disciples naturally agreed with this view. With all the leftover Black Crystal Reeds becoming Su Junqing’s possession from here onwards, they’d have to plead with him if they wanted more in future. And what if he refused their requests? Wouldn’t that mean that their lives were in his hands?
