Humanity’s Great Sage

That was because he had Amber and Yi Yi to assist him, while Luo Ji was on his own.
Amber and Yi Yi were unable to directly deal with Luo Ji because they were wary of  the seal’s power.
However, they could launch a sneak attack on him from time to time.
Because of what they had been doing, Luo Ji hadn’t had any time to take a nap.

On the other hand, Lu Ye had taken a few naps.
It could be said that if Lu Ye was also on his own, he wouldn’t have been at an advantage in such a battle.

These cultivators from the top great forces were indeed extraordinary.
The battle with Luo Ji served as a lesson for Lu Ye, that he should never judge a cultivator’s power based on his realm.
He wasn’t even in the mood to take a look at the things inside Luo Ji’s bag.
After he was done with eating some jerky, he dozed off.

Amber and Yi Yi traded glances before shuffling to both ends of the tunnel.
The war between Nine Star Clan and Mystic Sect had ended, and Luo Ji had admitted defeat, so they probably wouldn’t come across any danger again.
However, they still had to remain vigilant. 

Lu Ye was awakened by the noises coming from the Battlefield Imprint.
Still in a groggy state, he opened his eyes and furrowed his brows.
For some reason, he became grumpy upon waking up as he felt extremely displeased.
After remaining frustrated for a bit, he checked on his Battlefield Imprint, and just like what he had expected, it was Chu Tian who had sent over ten messages asking if he was around.
‘I’m not!’ he replied.

In the Mystic Sect’s station, Chu Tian appeared puzzled as he realised that Lu Ye seemed to be in a terrible mood.
After becoming startled for a while, he sent him one more message.
‘Brother Yi Ye, that’s funny.’

He had been calling him ‘Junior Brother Yi Ye’ in the past.
The fact that he had changed the way he addressed him suggested that some news had been spread around Mystic Sect.
Although he already knew that Lu Ye was from a top great force, Lu Ye proved to be a cultivator with huge potential by defeating Luo Ji.

‘What’s the matter?’ Lu Ye was trying to find out how to blacklist this guy.
A moment later, he realised that he just had to remove Chu Tian’s brand from his Battlefield Imprint.
However, considering the fact that this guy was his first and only friend so far, he decided not to do it.

‘The thing is…’ Upon reading Chu Tian’s explanation, Lu Ye learned that after those from Mystic Sect won the war, they decided to hold a celebratory banquet to reward the disciples who had done a great job.
Therefore, Chu Tian wanted to invite him to come over.
Regardless, Lu Ye had lent a hand to Mystic Sect in the beginning of the war.

‘I’m not free.’ Lu Ye rejected him outright.
Because of the advice given to him by the Sect Master previously, he wasn’t willing to come into contact with too many people, let alone join their celebratory banquet.
Moreover, he believed that Chu Tian had only invited him out of politeness.

“Well…” As Chu Tian read the rude message from Lu Ye in the Mystic Sect’s station, he realised that this man was indeed a willful person. 

Then, he replied, ‘Since you’re not free, I’ll stop disturbing you.
However, many of our Junior Brothers and Sisters want to thank you face-to-face.
Brother Yi Ye, when are you leaving? I’ll personally see you off.’

Lu Ye didn’t respond to Chu Tian’s message.
Instead, he fished out Luo Ji’s Storage Bag to have a look.
As expected, the restriction on the bag had been lifted.
Upon examining it, Lu Ye was surprised.
He thought that there were not many things left in the bag, but he realised that Luo Ji was richer than he thought. 

There were indeed not many good things left as these were all Spirit Pills, Spirit Stones and some defensive talisman papers.
Nevertheless, these were the things Lu Ye needed most now. 

There were about thirty stones.
A low-rank cultivator didn’t need to consume many of these, so Luo Ji had brought these stones with him just in case he needed them all of a sudden.
On the other hand, there were many pills.
There were ten bottles of Spirit Restoring Pills and three bottles of a different kind of pills.
In total, there were over a hundred pills.
Although these things were not enough to make up for the losses he had suffered in the past three days, it was better than nothing at all.
