Stealing the Heavens.

Chapter 24 Borrowing Some Luck from My Master
"Master, I must lead the Demon Hunting Team and protect the members. I must improve my cultivation as soon as possible."

Zi Dong could only explain it this way: using this fortune for cultivation was a barely acceptable excuse, and he planned to use it to break through his bottleneck.

"You're only at the Innate Realm, yet you want to borrow the fortune of a third to ninth grader? What do you take the fortune of my Cloud Heaven Sect for? Is it just the air that mortals can breathe?!"

Zhou Yunting's pale face was now red and black with anger; Zi Dong's tone was far too arrogant.

"Master, I'm borrowing from you, not from the sect." Zi Dong didn't dare to raise his head, as Zhou Yunting's furious pressure had already activated the Eastern Purple Qi.

"Do you think I, the sect master, am the Heavenly Dao, giving you endless fortune at will?!" Zhou Yunting was even more furious that someone actually wanted to borrow from him personally.

"Master, you are the master of the Child of Destiny. Although your destiny is not as great as that of the Heavenly Dao, it is not much less, right?" Zi Dong quickly flattered him.

"A thousand points of luck? You can't be that stingy, Sect Master!" Zhou Xinyu quickly walked over and stood next to Zi Dong, taunting him arrogantly.

"Just a thousand points of luck?!" Zhou Yunting immediately glared at Zhou Xinyu:

"It's one thousand points of luck for each rank from the third to the ninth. Calculate that for me, the sect master,!"

"Sect Master, you are at the Great Perfection of the Void Breaking Realm, and you could ascend to the Central Continent at any time. Do you really lack this little bit of luck?"

Zhou Xinyu's bright, sparkling eyes also stared at Zhou Yunting, as if to say, "You're about to become a cultivator, why are you still holding onto these low-grade fortunes?"

"Master, I'm borrowing this from you, I'll pay it back soon!" Zi Dong looked up and quickly explained with a pleading expression.

"How did you repay it?!" Zhou Yunting glared at Zi Dong, then suddenly remembered something and stared intently at him, asking:
"Can your fortune tree hold fortune ranging from the third to the ninth rank?"

He knew that Zi Dong could obtain second-grade luck when he was in the Qi Refining Realm, but he was not sure if he could obtain a higher grade of luck, so he wanted to test him.

"Master, I have the Devil Hunter's Luck Tree! It can even kill tenth-grade monsters!" Zi Dong shouted excitedly.

"The Demon Hunter Guild's Destiny Tree has no connection with me, so how can I lend you its destiny?"

Zhou Yunting suddenly put his hands behind his back and raised his head triumphantly. He had finally found a reason not to lend the money so that Zhou Xinyu wouldn't say he was stingy.

"Master, you can become the Supreme Elder of the Demon Hunter Group, wouldn't that be relevant?"

Zi Dong had already come up with a plan: even if there were no connections, he would force a connection, otherwise how could he obtain the luck?

"That's a great idea!" Zhou Xinyu immediately agreed, not forgetting to praise Zhou Yunting:

"Sect Master, if you were to become the Supreme Elder of the Demon Hunting Corps, you would be personally concerned with the growth of your disciples, and you would surely become a model for the Daoist sect!"

"Alright." Just as Zi Dong and Zhou Xinyu were filled with anxious anticipation, Zhou Yunting only hesitated for a moment before agreeing, which shocked the two of them.

Zhou Yunting never expected that this decision would not only help Yuntian Sect survive a major calamity, but also help him successfully ascend to the Central Continent.

Zi Dong quickly stood up, took out a Demon Hunter Team badge from his storage bag, and respectfully handed it to Zhou Yunting. He then summoned the Demon Hunter Team's Luck Tree.

Zhou Yunting didn't even glance at the Demon Hunter Team's badge, tossed it directly into his own space, and looked up at the Luck Tree above Zi Dong's head.

A cultivator's own Qi Tree cannot be separated from their sea of ​​consciousness, and it will dissipate into the world upon the cultivator's death.

However, the luck tree of a group like a sect can be extracted from its body, because once the leader changes, the luck tree needs to be refined again.

The Demon Hunter's Luck Tree is still a small sapling, with a trunk only as thick as an arm and more than a thousand branches that are not even as thick as a finger.

However, the Devil Hunter's Luck Tree is white, red, and orange, with not only branches and leaves of three colors, but also the main trunk in three colors.

Under the influence of his divine sense, Zhou Yunting looked directly at Zhou Xinyu's branches, which were surprisingly red.

He couldn't help but marvel at the power of the Immortal Venerable's seal; even the Heavenly Dao hadn't detected Zhou Xinyu's Void Breaking Realm cultivation. Amidst Zi Dong and Zhou Xinyu's eager anticipation, Zhou Yunting quickly imprinted his divine soul mark onto the Demon Hunter Team's Destiny Tree.

Zi Dong immediately used his divine sense to encourage Zhou Yunting to grow branches, which were even thicker than the main trunk, giving people a top-heavy feeling.

Zhou Yunting stared for a moment, then raised his hand and pointed to the dark branch that represented him. His large finger seemed to be possessed by the goddess of spring who loved the seven colors.

Orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, and black—as the seven colors of light flowed, leaves of various colors quickly sprouted from the originally bare, pitch-black branches.

Thanks to the thick, dark branches, otherwise the densely packed seven-colored leaves would be impossible to count.

"Remember to return it quickly!" Zhou Yunting glanced one last time at the Demon Hunter Group's Luck Tree, solemnly instructed Zi Dong, and then walked into the Purple Cloud Hall.

The reason he lent Zi Dong this fortune was entirely because Zi Dong could bring him even more fortune.

The idea of ​​him being a paragon of Taoism is utter nonsense. However, it's true that he'll help Zi Dong improve his cultivation level faster.

Zi Dong agreed and quickly put away the Demon Hunter Group's Luck Tree. Excitedly, he pulled Zhou Xinyu and ran down the mountain.

He couldn't wait to find a demon cultivator to test his guess and see if it was true; then he would be set for life.

After binding Feng Qingwu on the arena, Zi Dong gained nearly a thousand points of second-grade luck, more than double the amount of purple energy consumed by Donglai.

It shouldn't be random. So, every time Zi Dong binds an enemy, he gains double the luck.

If he were to use his flying sword to kill the enemy while the purple aura from the east was binding them, wouldn't he gain even more fortune?!

Zi Dong's thoughts grew increasingly rosy, and the wide smile that spread across his face left Zhou Xinyu bewildered. Before she could even ask, Zi Dong had already dragged her to the front of Feng Qingwu's cave.

Feng Qingwu was having a meeting with a dozen or so subordinates when Zi Dong and Zhou Xinyu arrived, forcing the dozen or so female disciples to leave.

"Wow, Junior Sister Qingwu, your place is decorated like a palace!" Zhou Xinyu was stunned by Feng Qingwu's magnificent cave dwelling; the gems alone were priceless.

"This is a celestial palace!" Feng Qingwu glared angrily at Zhou Xinyu. She was a cultivator; how could she live in a mortal's palace?

"Junior Sister Qingwu, the Immortal Palace isn't decorated like this!" Zhou Xinyu pouted. She had seen the real Immortal Palace before, and it was definitely not this extravagant.

"Junior sisters, what about the Immortal Palace and the Imperial Palace? Those are things for the future. Let's focus on the Demon Hunter Group first."

Zi Dong quickly dissuaded the two, saying that since they were neither cultivators nor emperors, what use was it for them to study the immortal palace or the imperial palace?

"You're the leader of the Demon Hunter team, just give the orders. What's there to research?"

Feng Qingwu's target is the leader of the Demon Hunter Team, not someone who can be bossed around by Zi Dong, so naturally she doesn't want to listen to Zi Dong.

“Junior sisters, you are the vice commanders. The Demon Hunter Squad has ten squads and one special operations team, so naturally we need to divide the work.”

Zi Dong's attitude was very good. Among the three, only Feng Qingwu could attract more disciples, so they couldn't afford to offend her now.

"How do you want to divide the work?" Zhou Xinyu quickly cooperated; she had to join forces with Zi Dong to suppress Feng Qingwu.

“My two junior sisters will each be in charge of five squads, and I will temporarily take charge of the special operations team,” Zi Dong stated his idea directly.

"Zi Dong, if you can break my Dragon and Phoenix Dance technique, I will not only do whatever you say, but I will also help the Demon Hunter Team recruit many experts. What do you say?"

Feng Qingwu looked at Zi Dong provocatively, as if to say that she wanted to fight and that she was going to use her Dragon and Phoenix Spirit.
