The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms Chapter 3252 - 3247: Ancestral Secret Treasure_1

"I'll utilize that treasure to trade for the Ancient Dragon Pattern Flag along with the six members of Fairy Moon Fu," Yang Chen declared.

Upon hearing his words, Broken River and his companions let out a relieved breath, gazing at Yang Chen with deep appreciation as they responded, "Brother Yang Chen, your kindness means the world to us. We'll make sure to praise you highly to the Daozu Elder about today's events."

"Fellow Yang Chen's decision is spot on, employing that treasure to resolve the issue with the Ancient Dragon Pattern Flag and Junior Sister Moon Orchid's predicament. However, I'm curious about the purpose of the treasure located on the uppermost level of the Heavenly Crystal Snake Spirit Tower," Madame Autumn Plum remarked.

Yang Chen replied, "It's merely the ancestral inheritance technique of the snake people. I can't fathom why those Ghost Kings desired it so much. Perhaps they aim to conduct some unique experiments. Even if the outcomes might not be favorable, rescuing Fairy Moon Fu takes priority right now."

Once they learned it was just a hereditary secret technique, everyone nodded in agreement and didn't dwell on it further.

Yet, unbeknownst to them, Yang Chen had withheld the full truth.

Regarding Fairy Moon Fu and her group, he harbored separate intentions and chose not to reveal them to anyone else.

Returning to his quarters now, Yang Chen started to contemplate deeply.

The item sought by Huan Ye Ming Wang was the enigmatic giant egg. Yang Chen remained uncertain about its true nature. Why would he simply surrender such a thing to them?

He coveted the giant egg for himself, and he intended to secure Fairy Moon Fu's six members as well.

His own schemes were in play; the challenge lay in executing them effectively...

"It all depends on that Mo Dao. For now, I should head to the meeting," Yang Chen whispered to himself.

Attend a meeting! With whom?

Obviously, it was with Wan Huaruo.

Before departing earlier, Wan Huaruo had transmitted a message to him via sound, inviting him to her pool that evening, where she promised to await him and offer a valuable treasure.

Yang Chen placed little value on this treasure; greed for wealth had never tempted him.

His intrigue centered on Wan Huaruo personally. He sensed she stood apart from the entire snake people community, far from ordinary in her essence.

With these thoughts swirling, Yang Chen devised a strategy.

Escaping the royal premises undetected proved effortless with his abilities. Manipulating spacetime allowed him seamless entry and exit.

By the time he arrived back, Yang Chen stood before the pool.

As he touched down near the pool of the Heavenly Crystal Snake Spirit Tower, a seductive voice drifted into Yang Chen's ears.

"Fellow Chen, join me in the pool for our chat!" Wan Huaruo chuckled invitingly.

Yang Chen glanced at the pool. After ensuring no dangers lurked, he dove in.

He hadn't anticipated the pool's profound depth, plunging endlessly. Upon entry, icy chill extended thousands of feet below until the base came into view gradually.

At its depths lay a hidden realm, revealed as a vast cave dwelling. Yet it brimmed with blooming flowers, lush trees, and vibrant flora. From afar, the murmur of flowing water echoed. At first sight, it resembled a lady's private chamber, crafted with delicate elegance and scents wafting all around.

Within this cavern, a woman perched on a stone seat, gesturing lightly with a warm smile, "Young Master Yang Chen, take a seat please."

Facing Wan Huaruo's gesture, Yang Chen remained composed, fixing his gaze on her stunning features before settling across from her.

Wan Huaruo offered a gentle smile, delicately stirring the tea before sliding it toward Yang Chen, "This pool connects deeply with my being; I've nurtured it alongside my cultivation for endless years. The tea brews from its waters, unfit for common folk to partake."

Yang Chen eyed the tea without haste, then stated, "Lady Wan, speak your mind plainly. My willingness to meet you tonight stems from genuine interest in certain facets of your character. So, let's dispense with formalities and address the heart of the matter directly. Trinkets and luxuries hold no sway over me."

At his words, Wan Huaruo's gaze softened like rippling water, her smile captivating as she regarded Yang Chen with allure.

"With Young Master Yang Chen's directness, it would be improper for me, Huaruo, to circle around. I'll be forthright then: Young Master Yang Chen, might you grant this giant egg to me?" Wan Huaruo's enchanting eyes held a beseeching glint, stirring an urge in others to comply.

Yang Chen's resolve stood firm; a mere glance from Wan Huaruo wouldn't sway him.

Besides, the giant egg puzzled him even more presently. First Huan Ye Ming Wang, now Wan Huaruo—two enigmatic powerhouses fixated on it.

Consider this: alien tribes from the Heavenly Fate Realm can't approach the Taiyuan Star System too closely. These pair of Heavenly-separated Realm masters likely represent the pinnacle of forces able to infiltrate the Nine Dragons World. Both set their ambitions on this giant egg—what secrets does it truly hold? The mystery deepened.

"I've long suspected Lady Wan possessed uniqueness. It appears your long vigil here truly revolves around this giant egg?" Yang Chen quipped with a sly grin.

Wan Huaruo paused briefly in surprise, then refuted, "Young Master Yang Chen, you've got it wrong. My duty has kept me stationed here for years. As for the giant egg, yes, it's a priceless item I've longed for, and I'm prepared to barter other valuables for it."

Yang Chen smirked disdainfully, "Lady Wan, I urge you to reveal the facts. Continued secrecy dooms any deal, and even your own mysteries, Lady Wan, I'll unravel them myself."

His statement caused Wan Huaruo to tremble faintly, her eyes meeting Yang Chen's as she realized he had pierced through portions of her facade.

She bit her lip softly and exhaled, "Fellow Daoist Yang Chen possesses keen insight; nothing escapes you. Truth be told, my seclusion in this pool over the years, maintaining watch, stems precisely from designs on this giant egg. Regrettably, my strength falls short. Despite years of effort to claim it, I've only conquered the ninth floor, repeatedly falling to the tenth."

Yang Chen grew ever more baffled by the giant egg's significance.

Noticing Yang Chen lost in reflection, Wan Huaruo parted her crimson lips delicately, "Fellow Chen, I desperately require this giant egg. Should you relinquish it to me, I'll offer a paramount treasure in return."

"And what might this paramount treasure be?" Yang Chen inquired, piqued.

Wan Huaruo recognized Yang Chen's question as a way to test her, yet she replied with poised elegance, "The treasure bears the name Wheel of Destiny Mirror; it's been my companion through countless years and stands as one of my greatest assets, preserving my life to this day."

"What unique qualities does the Wheel of Destiny Mirror possess?" Yang Chen questioned, intrigued.

"This artifact, when Young Master Yang Chen employs it subtly, conceals his aura and visage entirely. Even experts of the Heavenly Fate Realm struggle to detect him without thorough scrutiny. Huaruo has evaded peril numerous times thanks to it. Though not a divine tool, it's a rare heirloom secret treasure from my lineage." Wan Huaruo beamed with pride.
