Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor - Chapter 121
Chapter 121: Chapter 121: Cooperation? (Seeking Recommendation Tickets)
Yun Qianqian’s angered blush seemed playful to others.
All who were seated in the area were high-ranking figures from various sects; wasn’t each of them very observant?
The words of Su Han and the expression of Yun Qianqian had already clearly told them that something ambiguously intimate seemed to have happened between the two at some point.
“Master Su, the Silver Wolf Palace has also just been established. We cannot compare to the Lingluo Sect and Myriad Treasures Pavilion, but these ten million gold coins are also a token of sincerity from our palace, hoping Master Su will accept them graciously,”
a middle-aged man exuding a fierce aura stood up, waving his hand, and immediately, a gold card flew toward Su Han.
This action made everyone present furrow their brows.
Giving a gift was one thing, but this manner of giving was perhaps a bit too arrogant, wasn’t it?
People from Myriad Treasures Pavilion and the Lingluo Sect had just courteously presented their gifts, yet the Palace Master of the Silver Wolf Palace had simply thrown his to Su Han as if it were an alms.
“I had long heard that the Silver Wolf Palace, backed by the Huihai Sect, which in turn relies on the Sect of True Martial Arts, behaves extremely arrogantly. Now it seems, they truly live up to their reputation,” someone thought to themselves.
However, Su Han remained calm, and when the gold card flew in front of him, he slightly shifted his figure as if he hadn’t seen it, making no move to catch it!
The gold card spun magnificently in the air and finally, with a clang, landed on the floor.
“Hm?”
Palace Master Li Yuan of the Silver Wolf Palace’s face darkened, and displeased, he said, “What does this mean, Master Su? Do you think the gift from the Silver Wolf Palace is too meager?”
“Sorry, my cultivation base was too low. I couldn’t catch it,”
Su Han shrugged and then said, “Just leave it there for now, let’s continue our discussion.”
Upon hearing this, Li Yuan felt instant anger.
He was the Palace Master of the Silver Wolf Palace. Aside from the Blood Demon Sect, which was directly supported by the Sect of True Martial Arts, the just-established ten Ninth-Rate Sects considered the Silver Wolf Palace to be amongst the strongest.
The Silver Wolf Palace had over ten thousand disciples, and Li Yuan as the Palace Master was a powerhouse in the later stages of the Dragon Pill Realm.
In Li Yuan’s eyes, strength was everything.
If Su Han’s cultivation base had also been in the Dragon Pill Realm, he would have spoken with a bit more courtesy, but sensing that Su Han emitted the aura of the Dragon Vein Realm, Li Yuan was extremely disappointed.
With such cultivation, could he be the Master of the God-Slaying Pavilion? Could he truly have exterminated the Blood Demon Sect?
If it was said that there was no support from the Cold Cloud Sect behind him, Li Yuan wouldn’t believe it if he were killed!
Li Yuan even felt that destroying the Blood Demon Sect was all orchestrated by the Cold Cloud Sect taking action, with the God-Slaying Pavilion merely taking the fall.
But in front of so many people, and since Su Han hadn’t said anything impolite, Li Yuan could only snort coldly and keep his mouth shut.
“Master Su, this is the gift brought by our Sect Master,”
another elder stood up, and seeing him, Su Han couldn’t help but show a smile.
Yet this smile made the elder tremble all over.
Because this elder was indeed the Grand Elder of the Inner Sect of the Cold Cloud Sect, Ping Yuzi!
“What gift?” Su Han asked interestedly.
“One hundred million gold coins, ten drops of Fifth Order Beast Blood,”
Ping Yuzi said, taking out a silver card and a jade bottle.
“Thank him for me, Sect Master Ling.”
Su Han nodded slightly, and immediately someone took the silver card and the jade bottle from Ping Yuzi’s hands.
Ping Yuzi also heaved a slight sigh of relief, for when Su Han had looked at him, he had truly feared that Su Han would ask him for money.
At the same time, he also felt somewhat sentimental.
Months ago, he was still participating in the Cold Cloud Sect selection, and now he has already become the master of a sect.
Following the Cold Cloud Sect, several other sects also presented gifts.
Most of them offered gold coins and spiritual objects, as for pills, weapons, and equipment, they were too embarrassed to offer them.
Who doesn’t know that in the God-Slaying Pavilion, even the lowest grade weapons are at the silver level?
Giving gold rank items was too expensive, and they feared that the God-Slaying Pavilion might not like the silver rank, so they simply chose not to give these as well.
As for pills…
Compared to weapons and equipment, everyone knew that the master of the God-Slaying Pavilion was also an alchemy master.
After the God-Slaying Pavilion became famous, these sects thoroughly investigated everything about it, especially the master Su Han, they even looked into what color of underwear he wore as a child.
When Su Han made a brief appearance during the Cold Cloud Sect’s disciple selection, he refined ten high-level pills in half a minute, and of course, they knew about it.
So… they did not offer pills either!
“Alright.”
After all the sects had finished presenting their gifts, Su Han finally said, “Since all of you have graced us with your presence, today the God-Slaying Pavilion will host a banquet where everyone should drink to their heart’s content.”
“Let’s talk after the banquet. Today, besides congratulating the God-Slaying Pavilion, there is another matter I would like to discuss with the God-Slaying Pavilion,” said Li Yuan suddenly.
“Oh?”
Su Han raised an eyebrow, “May I know what matter Palace Master Li intends to discuss?”
“Cooperation.”
Li Yuan looked up and said, “What I mean is that I’d like to join forces with the God-Slaying Pavilion. Naturally, the God-Slaying Pavilion would remain as it is, and so would the Silver Wolf Palace. What I am proposing is a combination of both major sects’ resource lands.”
“Does Palace Master Li mean to jointly mine the resource lands of both sects?” asked Su Han.
“Yes.”
Li Yuan smiled secretly, thinking that Su Han was indeed clever.
“I’ve heard that the God-Slaying Pavilion doesn’t have too many people at present. I can dispatch some personnel from the Silver Wolf Palace to help mine those veins, whether they be ours or the God-Slaying Pavilion’s. Anything mined would be split evenly. What do you think, Master Su?”
“Humph, quite the wishful thinking!”
“This Li Yuan, his brain must have been kicked by a donkey!”
“Such an ignorant fool, isn’t this just extortion?”
As Li Yuan’s words fell, aside from Su Han, everyone else at the scene was inwardly cursing.
Cooperation? Joint mining? Splitting it half and half?
Each sect has its own resource lands, which might be veins or areas with an abundance of spiritual objects.
All the major sects are aware of each other’s resource lands.
For example, the Sect of True Martial Arts granted the Silver Wolf Palace a gold mine and a spirit stone vein.
However—
The two veins owned by the Silver Wolf Palace had already been mined by the Sect of True Martial Arts and later by the Huihai Sect before finally landing in the hands of the Silver Wolf Palace!
It can be said that in those two veins, there indeed were gold and spirit stones, but the quantities were already very scarce, almost akin to exhausted mines.
The situation at the God-Slaying Pavilion was different.
The resource lands given to the God-Slaying Pavilion by the Cold Cloud Sect had been mined, but not so extensively.
Most importantly, after annihilating the Blood Demon Sect, the God-Slaying Pavilion acquired two more veins. These veins contain deposits of gold and spirit stones that are genuinely high!
