Chapter 384: Just Had a Casual Chat with My Master

Lin Yu didn't answer right away this time.

He quickly calculated in his mind: he'd already brought up the cultivation method. If he asked for more, would that seem greedy?

But the thought was snuffed out in an instant.

Since this big shot had taken the initiative to ask, refusing to respond would seem insincere instead. In the cultivation world, being too polite meant being distant, and being distant meant not wanting to get entangled in karmic ties. Not wanting karmic ties meant harboring ulterior motives.

Besides, those items really were meant to extend his life. If this broken soul body of his didn't get some patching up soon, he'd be shivering at the next thunderstorm.

He weighed his words carefully, keeping his tone calm:

"There are a few materials... that would be useful to this junior. But given my lowly status, they're not easy to obtain."

Hao Yuan gave a slight nod. "List them."

Lin Yu extended his hand, tracing a few lines of characters in the air:

Void Stone Powder, Boundary Origin Sand (core materials to activate the Minor Void Spirit Attraction Formation)Nourishing Soul Wood Marrow (to warm and nurture the soul body's origin)

After writing these three, he paused, then added one more line in a very soft tone:

"These are all for sustaining life. Although that child's Dao foundation has been reforged, he also needs things like Earth Vein Spirit Milk to nurture it. If there's any to spare, I ask that Senior..."

He didn't say "please grant this to this junior." He just stated the facts.

This was Lin Yu's art of conversation. When asking for something, you didn't ask for it directly; you said "this item is useful to me" and left the decision to the other party.

Hao Yuan glanced at those few lines of characters and nodded. "I will have someone deliver these things."

Lin Yu froze. He hadn't expected it to be this easy.

Void Stone Powder and Boundary Origin Sand were one thing—expensive, but still purchasable with spirit stones. But Nourishing Soul Wood Marrow was a priceless treasure, usually found only deep in the heart of ten-thousand-year-old sunken wood. An ounce of it was worth an entire city.

This True Lord had agreed as easily as if he were promising to deliver two pounds of cabbage.

Lin Yu instinctively wanted to say "thank you, Senior," but the words caught in his throat.
