The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms Chapter 3137 - 3132: Mutual Trade_1

Yang Chen let out a soft laugh and shook his head lightly. He had mistakenly believed that by departing from the Lingnan Two Realms and evading the King of Joyful Sound, he had finally escaped such tedious chores.

To his surprise, even after arriving at the Divine Night Sect, he was still being assigned to manual labor.

However, it was of little consequence. Even though both situations involved strenuous work, Princess Wenqi’s demeanor was far more pleasant than that of the King of Joyful Sound. There was room for him to negotiate terms with her.

Since Senior Wenqi had made her request, Yang Chen responded, "Senior Wenqi, if you require this Junior to assist the Divine Night Sect with these affairs, I can agree. Nevertheless, simply locating the missing items will not be sufficient."

"What do you mean by 'not sufficient'?" Princess Wenqi asked, her eyes narrowing. She had anticipated that Yang Chen would try to strike a bargain.

Yang Chen explained, "Firstly, for a power as massive as the Divine Night Sect, finding a single person and a spear lost by this Junior should be quite simple. Granted, such a search demands significant resources, and I naturally expect to contribute my part. However, prior to this, I had already reached an accord with Miss Ji to trade the law particles of the Furious Sword King. Now that Senior Wenqi wants me to handle these tasks, I don’t mind, but regarding Miss Ji’s law particles..."

Yang Chen trailed off, leaving the rest of his thought hanging in the air.

While he wasn't typically a conniving person, he believed in the principle of reciprocity. The Furious Law particles were rare treasures, and he saw no harm in seeking a better deal.

Princess Wenqi shifted her gaze toward Ji Yue Shuang, clearly unaware of these previous arrangements.

"The law particles of the Furious Sword King? You actually drove the Sword Monarch into a state of rage? How intriguing. If you possess those particles, it implies you slew the King. Shuang’er never mentioned this to me. Shuang’er, is this the truth?" Princess Wenqi questioned.

Ji Yue Shuang could only nod in confirmation, "Yes, it is true."

"Hmph, you troublesome girl. Very well, since you and Shuang’er already had a prior agreement, my demands were indeed a bit much. You may voice your other requests. As an Elder of This Palace, I certainly won't treat you unfairly," Princess Wenqi declared.

Yang Chen’s face became grave. After a moment of silent reflection, he stated, "Junior desires the cultivation method for the Way of Ten Thousand Laws!"

Even though he might eventually join the Grand Abyss Palace, there was no guarantee he could easily obtain the usage method for the Way of Ten Thousand Laws there.

Therefore, he decided not to be modest and seized this chance to acquire it now.

Ji Yue Shuang’s brows arched in surprise. Hearing Yang Chen ask for the techniques related to the Way of Ten Thousand Laws confirmed her suspicion that he truly possessed it.

This revelation startled her. She was well aware of what a genius capable of wielding the Way of Ten Thousand Laws represented.

It was common knowledge that only those who possessed the most formidable Dao Intent could give rise to the Way of Ten Thousand Laws.

Princess Wenqi, however, showed no shock, as if she had already foreseen Yang Chen’s request.

She gave a charming smile and said, "You truly are focused on that. In truth, you needn't go to such lengths. If you were to join my Shenyue Sect, you wouldn't have to perform any chores, and This Palace could simply grant you the method for the Way of Ten Thousand Laws directly."

"Senior, I ask that you do not put Junior in a difficult position," Yang Chen said, shaking his head.

"You are quite stubborn. Fine, I shall stop pressuring you. However, the method for utilizing the Way of Ten Thousand Laws is a highly guarded secret art, perfected over three eras through the insights of the Shenyue Sect’s greatest experts. If you were a member of our Sect, giving it to you would be simple. But since you are currently an outsider, you must be prepared to meet my conditions," Princess Wenqi warned, clearly intending to set a high price.

Sensing the daunting nature of the upcoming conditions, Yang Chen felt a slight chill but replied, "Senior, please state them."

"I haven't decided on the final condition yet, but I will inform you when I do. For the time being, you must successfully finish three B-level difficulty tasks. You may depart now. Shortly, This Palace will have Shuang’er guide you," Princess Wenqi commanded.

Yang Chen gave a nod. Since he had no plans to join the Shenyue Sect, he didn't require a formal escort. He turned and made his way back to his living quarters.

Once Yang Chen had departed, Ji Yue Shuang let out a soft sigh, "Master, aren't you being too demanding? To be honest, locating a mere Emperor Divine Tool and a single Cultivator should be effortless with the Shenyue Sect's vast network. Is it truly necessary to burden him with three B-level tasks?"

"Burden him? Do you think I am acting without a plan?" Princess Wenqi spoke with a deep, hidden meaning.

"Master’s intention is..." Ji Yue Shuang was puzzled.

"That Yang Chen turned down my invitation to the Shenyue Sect, but do you think I have surrendered? Those old fossils at the Grand Abyss Palace are meant to oversee the Taiyuan Star System, yet they are always trying to poach talents from my Shenyue Sect. Currently, our Sect lacks enough manpower to maintain the cosmic order, and now this boy named Yang wants to join them? Well, I am determined to win him over to our side," Princess Wenqi snorted.

Princess Wenqi continued with a light hum, "But if I am to recruit him, he must prove his worth. These three B-level tasks are a test of his capabilities. You should guide him well and assist him with anything he finds confusing. Remember to treat him kindly, and you can even try to grow closer to him. Though this is just an initial test, he is a man worthy of your attention."

Ji Yue Shuang’s cheeks flushed red at these words, and she quickly replied, "Yes, Master, I understand."

With that, she turned and made her exit.

Not long after Yang Chen had returned to his room, Ji Yue Shuang arrived.

Walking to his side, Ji Yue Shuang said, "Young Master Yang Chen, my Master has made the necessary arrangements, so you can put your mind at ease. Regarding the tasks she mentioned, there is no need to rush. The Divine Night Sect is immense, and as you are our guest, I can spend these next few days showing you around. We can address the tasks whenever you feel ready."

Yang Chen was not one to idle away his time. He preferred to handle responsibilities immediately rather than delaying them. Hearing Ji Yue Shuang’s offer, a look of appreciation appeared in his eyes.

He replied promptly, "I appreciate Miss Ji’s kindness. However, I prefer not to procrastinate when there is work to be done. I have stayed at the Divine Night Sect for a while now and have already caused Miss Ji enough trouble; I cannot ask you to waste time touring with me. Let us begin the tasks at once."

Seeing that Yang Chen had no interest in relaxation, Ji Yue Shuang had no choice but to agree. "If that is your wish, Young Master Yang, please follow me."

Yang Chen followed closely behind Ji Yue Shuang, feeling a sense of curiosity about how the Divine Night Sect maintained the order of the ten thousand realms.
