Chapter 719: Chapter 18 Supreme Weapons? (Seeking Subscriptions)

“This compass?”

Lin Yuan’s expression showed a hint of surprise.

In the Two-dimensional World, any transcendent powers would be reduced, leaving only the purest physical form.

Yet this bronze compass gave Lin Yuan a sense of mysterious aura.

This feeling seemed to slightly exceed the suppression of the Two-dimensional World, making Lin Yuan a bit cautious.

He needed to know that so far, no life or treasure of any level had been able to withstand the dimensional reduction.

Except for—

The ultimate existence.

“How to use it?”

Lin Yuan keenly noticed the lingering blood on the bronze compass.

“Is it with blood?”

Lin Yuan guessed in his heart.

“Wait until I get back to study it slowly.”

Lin Yuan put away the bronze compass and checked the bodies of the Yunshan Eighteen Bandits several times to ensure nothing was missed, then left with their vital organs.

To claim the bounty on the Yunshan Eighteen Bandits, one must prove that they had indeed killed the targets.

And here, the proof typically was the vital organs of the opponent.

Although Lin Yuan gained much from the Yunshan Eighteen Bandits, he did not forget the bounty of Witch Crystals on them.

Those were a free gift, and naturally could not be wasted.

…

Dongyuan City.

Xueyu Tavern.

A hunchbacked old man was dozing off. As a Witch Emperor-level powerhouse from the capital of Xueyu Ancient Country, he specifically took on the role of the owner of Dongyuan City Xueyu Tavern to avoid being recruited by various forces.

Though Dongyuan City was a large city, it was far from the capital and the gathering place of power.

There were fewer troubles here, and the hunchbacked old man planned to retire in this place.

*He was already very old, his vitality declining,* and *he was not fit to compete with those Witch Emperors in their prime.*

“Due to the Yunshan Eighteen Bandits roaming nearby, a large number of powerhouses from the Ancient Country had already gathered around here.”

The hunchbacked old man shook his head slightly, feeling quite helpless.

The bounty on the Yunshan Eighteen Bandits alone reached sixty million Witch Crystals.

Adding to that their original possessions and the accumulation over the years,

even peak-level Witch Emperors were very eager.

However, peak-level Witch Emperors were still few, and most who came to hunt the Yunshan Eighteen Bandits were teams composed of many powerhouses.

“Hmm?”

“That young man came again?”

The hunchbacked old man turned his gaze to see Lin Yuan walking into the tavern again.

The hunchbacked old man had a deep impression of Lin Yuan.

First, Lin Yuan dared to accept the bounty on the Yunshan Eighteen Bandits alone.

Second, Lin Yuan was not any powerhouse the hunchbacked old man knew.

Third, the time since Lin Yuan left was really too short, not even a day.

…

Inside a private room of the tavern.

Lin Yuan sat opposite the hunchbacked old man.

“So, are you planning to give up the bounty task?” The hunchbacked old man asked without any tone of mockery.

The Yunshan Eighteen Bandits were strong and had innumerable hidden cards. Even at his peak, he wasn’t sure he could take them down, let alone someone as seemingly young as Lin Yuan.

The hunchbacked old man speculated that Lin Yuan might be a young member of a prestigious family out for experience?

Momentarily excited, he wanted to accept the Yunshan Eighteen Bandits’ bounty, but after a day of running, he found that he couldn’t even find a trace of them.

So, he returned to the tavern intending to give up the task.

“No, I’m here to claim the bounty,” Lin Yuan said.

“Claim the bounty?”

The hunchbacked old man looked at Lin Yuan, unable to react for a moment.

Claim the bounty on the Yunshan Eighteen Bandits?

“These are their skulls.”

Lin Yuan opened the bag he was carrying, and eighteen skulls rolled out.

To prove the kill of the Yunshan Eighteen Bandits, ordinary organs wouldn’t do.

It had to be vital organs like skulls to gain recognition from the Xueyu Tavern.

Before accepting the bounty, Lin Yuan had naturally clarified everything, to avoid any objections at this time.

As for ensuring these skulls were from the Yunshan Eighteen Bandits, Xueyu Tavern naturally had special means for confirmation.

“Skulls?”

The hunchbacked old man’s expression became serious.

Although he wasn’t sure at that moment whether these eighteen skulls belonged to the Yunshan Eighteen Bandits,

he could directly determine, with his vision, that these eighteen skulls came from powerhouses nearing the level of Witch Emperors.

Witch Kings, Witch Emperors, and even Witch Emperors, had large differences in the degree of body refinement, affecting the hardness and texture of bones.

Anyone with a little experience could see that.

“Please wait a moment.”

The hunchbacked old man’s tone changed immediately.

He quickly called his subordinates to take the eighteen skulls out.

A moment later.

The hunchbacked old man walked swiftly back into the private room, his tone slightly respectful, “Sir, it has been confirmed that the skulls belong to the Yunshan Eighteen Bandits.”

“Hmm.” Lin Yuan nodded.

Indeed, Xueyu Tavern had a good reputation.

Lin Yuan chose to claim the bounty at Xueyu Tavern because of their “flexibility.”

Anyone could post and accept bounty tasks at Xueyu Tavern without revealing their identity.

Though Xueyu Tavern originated from Xueyu Ancient Country, over the ages, it had long become independent, catering to all Witch-level or above powerhouses across the Twelve Ancient Countries.

“This is Blood Rain Tea, enjoyed only by members of the Xueyu Ancient Country Royalty.” The hunchbacked old man waved his hand, and someone immediately served a cup of tea.

The color of the tea was blood-red. Lin Yuan originally didn’t intend to drink it, but a casual glance revealed mysterious energy flowing within the tea.

“This tea?”

Lin Yuan’s brow twitched.

The mysterious waves in the tea almost gave him a similar feeling to the bronze compass, though far less intense and mysterious.

If he hadn’t just seen the bronze compass, Lin Yuan guessed he would have simply thought the tea was quite special, not thinking in the direction of breaking free from the Two-dimensional World’s dimensional suppression.
