Yan Yi's heartfelt words made Zhou Yiqiao at a loss for what to do for a moment.

Fortunately, the two were silent for only a moment, and Yan Chi hurried over with the good news, his face filled with joy that was hard to conceal.

"Your Highness, Mr. Zhou, we found an underground treasure trove!"

"In a secret cellar deep in the camp, there are a large number of unused spiritual stones and magic weapons. Judging from the quality of those treasures, they must have been supplies hastily transported to this camp after our action!"

Zhou Yiqiao and Yan Yi were delighted when they heard what Yan Chi said. They set off immediately and followed him through the hidden path of the camp and came to the entrance of the secret cellar.

The entrance to the cellar was cleverly hidden under an inconspicuous hut, with an old invisible formation on it.

If Yan Chi had not accidentally bombarded this place when he destroyed the camp, I'm afraid no one would have noticed this treasure house until the end.

They walked down the stone steps, the moisture and earthy smell in the air gradually becoming heavier.

When they reached the depths of the cellar, the view suddenly opened up and a spacious underground space appeared before them.

The walls were inlaid with glowing spiritual stones, illuminating the entire cellar and reflecting the brilliant light of countless treasures.

In the cellar, rows of shelves were filled with various spirit stones of different sizes. Between the spirit stones were some magic weapons. Although there were not many of them, each one looked exquisite and powerful, and were obviously not ordinary objects.

When the monsters saw this, greed showed in their eyes and they couldn't wait to step forward and share the spoils.

However, Yan Yi waved his hand to stop them, and turned to Zhou Yiqiao and said.

"Mr. Zhou, you have made great contributions in this operation. Please choose the treasures here first."

As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of all the monsters turned strange.

Regardless of the fact that Zhou Yiqiao made a wrong decision and almost put everyone in danger, these demon cultivators still had some complaints against Zhou Yiqiao at this moment.

Now that the mission has been completed, the monsters no longer have to obey Zhou Yiqiao's command. Naturally, they would prefer to distribute the spoils according to their own wishes.

But they could be dissatisfied with Zhou Yiqiao, but they dared not show any disrespect to Yan Yi, the royal family of the Flame Scale Demon Clan.

Even though the monsters were dissatisfied, they all quieted down at this moment and looked at Zhou Yiqiao, waiting for his reply.

If Zhou Yiqiao had followed his previous style, he would have taken the initiative to give up this honor at this moment in order to calm the dissatisfaction and resentment in the hearts of the monsters.

Only this time, he saw something familiar among the many treasures.

A milky white diamond-shaped crystal, emitting a warm glow all over.

This diamond-shaped crystal is exactly the moonstone fragment that Zhou Yiqiao has been searching for.

The moment Zhou Yiqiao's eyes fell on the milky white diamond-shaped crystal, the emotions surging in his heart were indescribable.

After entering Zhongzhou, although he was always on the go, he never stopped searching for moonstone fragments.

I thought that I would not have such an opportunity again in the short term, but I did not expect to accidentally discover this crucial moonstone fragment deep in this dangerous camp.

However, his reason and upbringing enabled him to quickly control his emotions and not let his excitement spill out into words.

The Moonstone Space is his biggest secret and also his greatest reliance. Now with Yan Yi and others around him, he naturally would not easily reveal his true intentions.

With a thought, he smiled slightly, looked around at the demon cultivators around him, and spoke slowly.

"Your Highness Yan Yi thinks so highly of me. I am really flattered."

"But Zhou was wrong today after all, so it's not good for him to covet these treasures and cause unnecessary disputes."

As he spoke, he took a light step, seemingly casually walking towards the spirit stones and magic weapons, and reached out to take a few objects with weak spiritual power from the many treasures, which naturally included the moonstone fragment.

"Since Your Highness is so kind, I will accept these as a commemoration of this operation."

Seeing this, Yan Yi's eyes flashed with approval.

He knew very well that Zhou Yiqiao's move was for the sake of the overall situation and to give himself and the monsters a way out.

So he announced loudly.

"Good! Mr. Zhou is indeed a man of high moral character. In this case, the remaining treasures will be distributed among you according to your work. It must be fair and just, and no violation is allowed!"

Upon hearing this, all the monsters nodded in agreement, and the atmosphere eased a lot in an instant.

While the monsters were dividing the spoils, Zhou Yiqiao left the cellar first and returned to the camp.

"What's wrong, Mr. Zhou?"

When Zhou Yiqiao was staring at the shadows of trees in the distance in a daze, Yan Yi suddenly walked up to him and asked softly.

"nothing......"

Zhou Yiqiao came back to his senses and shook his head.

"I just feel a little emotional. Ever since I entered Zhongzhou, I have been running around because of the internal strife among the top management of Qinjian Villa."

"Today, we finally destroyed the last spiritual medicine base of the Great Elder in Zoroastrianism. The Great Elder lost a lot of spiritual stones for support. From now on, he will no longer be able to compete with the owner of the manor and the eldest lady."

After listening to Zhou Yiqiao's explanation, Yan Yi was a little confused.

"Mr. Zhou, from what you said, shouldn't this be something worth being happy about?"

Zhou Yiqiao was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter. However, the laughter did not last long and gradually faded away, replaced by a hint of confusion.

"Your Highness Yan Yi is absolutely right. From a big picture perspective, this is indeed a victory worth celebrating."

"It's just that Zhou lost his goal for a while and was a little overwhelmed."

After hearing this, Yan Yi finally understood Zhou Yiqiao's emotions.

"Mr. Zhou has never experienced this kind of emotion before, so it's hard to comment too much."

“But Yan Yi knows that no matter whether they are demon cultivators or human cultivators, the ultimate goal of all cultivators who embark on the path of immortality is to pursue the realm of transcending life and death and achieving immortality.”

"If Mr. Zhou has temporarily lost his motivation, he might as well temporarily raise his goal to a higher level. Perhaps he can regain his enthusiasm and direction."

When Zhou Yiqiao heard this, his heart trembled slightly. He looked at Yan Yi, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.

Indeed, since leaving Qinjian Villa, Zhou Yiqiao had no choice but to work for others in order to protect himself, and for a while he even forgot the path of cultivation that he had always insisted on.

Yan Yi's words were like a clear spring, slowly watering the dry land in his heart, allowing him to regain his desire for endless exploration of the realm of cultivation.

"Your Highness Yan Yi is right. I am indeed too immersed in the chaos in front of me and have forgotten the original intention of cultivation."

Zhou Yiqiao slowly exhaled a breath and wanted to bow to Yan Yi, but suddenly a blessing came to his heart and an inexplicable throbbing surged in his heart.
