Arbuluo ultimately couldn't resist Lu Ye's persuasion and left alone, preparing to capture a few Celestial God followers for him to research.
While waiting, Lu Ye received a message from Sun Nianyue; another batch of wounded cultivators had retreated from the outer battlefield, many of whom were injured by the mana of the Celestial God followers and needed his help.
Lu Ye immediately headed towards Renyuan Valley. As before, the power of the Talent Tree was activated, and he easily resolved the issues, earning the gratitude of many tearful cultivators.
When he returned to the Star Picking Tower, Arbuluo was already back, glaring at Lu Ye with gritted teeth: "I'll never believe your nonsense again."
"What happened?" Lu Ye was bewildered.
"Tian Hong scolded me severely, and half of the battle merit I worked so hard for was deducted!"
Lu Ye looked sympathetic: "Didn't you tell him I sent you out?"
