Chapter 2353 Alchemist
"Yana! You..."
The middle-aged man looked at the woman beside him with some disbelief.
"He didn't hurt me when he was in the tree hole, and he gave me this." Yana took out the law crystal from her pocket.
"You finally took it!" Lu Yun said with a smile: "We made it very clear at the beginning. This is the reward for you to answer my questions. Now that you have received the reward, isn't it time to answer my questions?"
"Yana, what did you promise him? Have you forgotten what I taught you? Don't trust anyone who takes the initiative to talk to you, except for people from our village. Have you forgotten?"
The middle-aged man said, snatching the crystal of law from Yana's hand and throwing it to Lu Yun: "I'll return it to you, let us out quickly."
"Uncle! You don't seem to understand the current situation!"
Lu Yun looked at the slovenly middle-aged man with some anger: "To put it nicely, I saved you out of kindness. To put it bluntly, you just changed your master."
"If I wanted to kill you, it would be easier than stepping on an ant."
The powerful aura displayed by Lu Yun directly shocked the middle-aged man.
"Don't... don't kill Uncle Wang! Please, don't kill Uncle Wang!"
Yana begged.
"Don't worry, I usually don't have the intention to kill, but if someone challenges my bottom line again and again, I can't say for sure."
The frightened middle-aged man trembled all over and collapsed to the ground, not even daring to look up at Lu Yun.
Lu Yun took out the law crystal that Shao Qing gave him from his arms and gave it to Yana together with the one in his hand, but Yana did not accept it.
She only hoped that Lu Yun would release her and the middle-aged man afterwards.
Lu Yun laughed: "You would rather stay in that dark and smelly pit than in my comfortable and cozy cave. I really don't understand!"
"But I obey your wishes!"
"I hope you keep your promise!"
Then Yana began to introduce Lu Yun.
This mysterious place is called by another name among the natives of Yana - the Ring of Sky Islands.
As the name suggests, the area of the Sky Island Ring is like a circle. In the middle is a place called the Eye of the Storm. There is constant thunder all year round and it is called the Forbidden Land of Life, which means that no living creature can survive in it.
However, in the Eye of the Storm, Law Crystals are produced from time to time, which lays the foundation for the distribution pattern of the Sky Island Ring.
The stronger the race, the closer the territory is to the eye of the storm, the more resources it will enjoy, and so on!
The human race is only fit to survive in the most marginal position on the Sky Island Ring. They are the cheapest labor force on the Sky Island Ring. Many powerful races treat the human race as livestock.
There are many people like Yana who were captured and made slaves!
The human race in the Sky Island Ring is always thinking about escaping from this nightmare place.
"That's all I know about the Sky Island Ring!"
Lu Yun nodded, and he had a general understanding of the mysterious place and the ring of the sky island where drinking was done.
What's more, what Yana said basically matches the history of the upper world that Erha had previously told him, which means that Yana did not lie to him.
Erha once said that after the war between gods and demons, all races were badly damaged, and the human race took advantage of the situation to rise up and wipe out other races.
At that time, in order to continue their race and avoid being exterminated, several giant races that had once been in the upper realm used the world artifact, the Sky City, to protect some of their descendants.
As for the human race on the Sky Island Ring, they should be the descendants of the human cultivators who accidentally broke in and were taken away by the Sky City.
"Go on! Tell me about the stinking pit. Why does this filthy place produce crystals of laws? Is it because it has some connection with the eye of the storm you mentioned?"
Yana shook her head and said through gritted teeth: "The Stinkhole has nothing to do with the Eye of the Storm! The birth of the Stinkhole was entirely due to that group of crazy alchemists."
"Alchemist?" Lu Yun frowned. It was the first time he heard this word.
"Alchemists, a group of scum who despise life, conduct inhumane experiments on living beings under the guise of stimulating the potential of living things. The human-sheep is the failed product they created. When they found that it did not meet their expectations, they ruthlessly abandoned it and left it to fend for itself!"
"And this so-called stinking pit is the sewer that the alchemists use to discharge wastewater."
Lu Yunci grinned: "It's really a sewer!"
When he first came in, he felt that this stinking pit was a sewer, but he didn't expect it to be true.
"Where do these law crystals come from?"
"These are all left over from the alchemists' experiments."
Yana clenched her fist and said, "Alchemists have sufficient reserves of law crystals, so they naturally look down on the law crystals left over from these experiments and let them flow away with the wastewater."
"But there are races that are interested, such as the goat monsters that enslaved us. They are one of the races that profit from this stinking pit."
"According to what you said, the Goat Monster doesn't have a high status in this Sky Island Ring!"
"Not high, but better than the human race's situation!"
Lu Yun nodded: "Understood!"
"I've told you everything you want to know. Can you let us out?"
Yana looked at Lu Yun with pleading eyes.
"Do you really want to go out? I can take you to a safe place and then let you out from here."
Lu Yun looked at Yana's clear eyes and felt reluctant to let such a child return to such a terrible environment like the stinking pit.
"Thank you for your kindness, but it's not necessary!"
Yana refused bluntly.
Lu Yun did not force it. He pinched his fingers and made some hand gestures, and the three of them returned to the dead end of the stinking pit again.
"Thank you for keeping your promise. See you again if there's a chance!"
After saying this, he hurriedly left with the frightened middle-aged man.
From the beginning, Lu Yun noticed that Yana would put her hands into her pockets from time to time, as if to check if something was there.
Besides, she could have stayed in the tree hole to spend the long night, but she sneaked back to the stinking pit, probably because of the thing in her pocket.
Lu Yun even suspected that Yana was responsible for Kangka's coma!
"Things are getting more and more interesting!" Lu Yun looked at the two people's disappearing backs and quickly followed them.
Lu Yun's intuition told him that as long as he followed Yana, he would not only be able to find other human cultivators, but also find out what they were planning.
