Dragon Crystal, an incredibly precious material, has extensive uses. It can be used for forging, enchanting, or unlocking extremely rare Dragon-type professions.
Only Dragon-blooded monsters have a chance to drop it.
Even the most powerful True Dragon bosses have a drop rate of less than 1%.
Therefore, each Dragon Crystal is extremely valuable, with a market price of at least 100 million.
And it's practically unavailable!
Magma Dragon Hog, also possessing Dragon blood, albeit very faint, has a one in ten thousand chance of dropping a Dragon Crystal.
Even the most powerful guilds, despite their need for Dragon Crystals, wouldn't bother farming it.
However, this time, Magma Dragon Hog actually dropped a Dragon Crystal!
A one in ten thousand chance!
Liu Zhen and the others looked at Ye Xuan with envious eyes, what incredible luck!
He had become instantly rich!
There wasn't any greed on their faces, for although they were the ones who had aggroed the Magma Dragon, they would have been wiped out without Ye Xuan.
These spoils of war rightfully belonged to him.
Furthermore, with Ye Xuan's strength, harboring any ill intentions would be suicidal!
Ye Xuan turned, looked at the Dragon Crystal, and a look of surprise crossed his face.
He had only intervened to save Liu Zhen and the others.
As for the Dragon Crystal, it was a pleasant surprise!
With this...
His plans could be accelerated!
Ye Xuan immediately put away the Dragon Crystal, then looked at the remaining materials and said to Liu Zhen and the others, "Take the rest of the materials, I don't need them."
"No way!"
Liu Zhen immediately refused, "You killed the Magma Dragon, all the loot should be yours!"
"Yeah!"
The other members of the squad echoed his sentiment.
Hearing this, a wave of warmth washed over Ye Xuan's heart. He had seen enough greedy adventurers, but this team, though weak, was pure of heart.
He shook his head, "I really don't need these things. If you don't want them, leave them here, they'll be taken by someone else later."
Hearing Ye Xuan's words, Liu Zhen and the others finally collected the loot.
They didn't expect to have such a windfall!
Even without the Dragon Crystal, the remaining loot would be enough to raise their team's overall strength by a notch!
Having gathered their loot, they prepared to leave Nine Peaks Gorge.
"Brother Ye, are you going to the Hengjiang region to participate in the large-scale dungeon, Shattered Heaven?"
The emergence of the large-scale special dungeon, Shattered Heaven, was undoubtedly the hottest topic among adventurers these days.
Ye Xuan nodded, "Yes, what about you?"
Liu Zhen smiled, "We won't be going. Meng Meng is only level 18, we recently acquired a special dungeon scroll that's about to expire. We're going to clear it for her to get some special profession skills."
Priest Meng Meng blushed shyly.
They chatted and laughed along the way, with Ye Xuan paying special attention to Meng Meng, talking to her quite a bit.
"Brother Ye, are you interested in our Meng Meng?"
Li Meng teased, "You have good taste, our Meng Meng is an excellent cook, very capable!"
Meng Meng, her pretty face flushed, said in a scolding tone, "What are you talking about!"
But even so, she couldn't help but shyly glance at Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan's heroic rescue earlier had obviously left a good impression on the young lady.
Ye Xuan was stunned for a moment, then he shook his head and laughed, "I just think Meng Meng looks a lot like my sister."
Hearing this, Meng Meng felt a pang of disappointment for some reason.
She couldn't help but say, "Your sister must be very happy, having a brother like you..."
But when Ye Xuan heard those words, a hint of loneliness crossed his face.
"My sister... has been separated from me since we were little."
"Oh." Upon hearing this, Meng Meng's face immediately showed a look of regret, "I'm sorry, I brought up a painful memory..."
"It's alright!"
Ye Xuan smiled, his expression resolute, "I've already found my sister!"
They all comforted him, "Then you'll be reunited with your sister soon."
The smile on Ye Xuan's face was tinged with bitterness, things were not so simple.
His sister was currently in the hands of... his enemy!
They reached the city closest to Nine Peaks Gorge, exchanged contact information, and then said their goodbyes with some reluctance.
Although they had only met recently, Liu Zhen's team greatly admired and was close to Ye Xuan.
As they parted, Liu Zhen said earnestly to Ye Xuan, "Brother Ye, you saved our lives. Though we may not be strong, if you need us, we'll give our all to help you!"
Ye Xuan was moved by their words, "Alright, we have each other's contact information. See you later!"
"See you later!"
The moment Meng Meng stepped into the teleportation array, she suddenly shouted to Ye Xuan, "Ye Xuan, when you find your sister, you must come see me, I'll cook for you!"
Watching the figures of the group disappear in a flash of teleportation light.
Ye Xuan nodded, his voice firm.
"I will, I definitely will.
And that day... is not far away."
