Chapter 2324 2298 Dont Get Close to the Demon Race
Chapter 2324: Chapter 2298: Don’t Get Close to the Demon Race! (Sixth Update) Chapter 2324: Chapter 2298: Don’t Get Close to the Demon Race! (Sixth Update) Then, his chances of obtaining the Dragonheart Fruit at the Tianchen Auction seemed extremely, extremely slim!
After all, even though the Tianchen Auction was an auction held by the Divine Kingdom, it wasn’t at the top level of the Divine Kingdom!
Moreover, it could be said to be among the lower echelons within the Divine Kingdom!
Chu Hong sighed, “It seems that we can only wait until you truly enter the Divine Kingdom before searching for it. Ye Chen, I entrust Little Ying to you!”
Chu Hong’s expression also showed a trace of despondency. Although he did not blame Ye Chen, as a father, how could he bear to see his daughter lying in an Ice Coffin each day to sustain her life?
Ye Chen’s expression turned solemn, and he earnestly promised, “Please rest assured, Uncle! I, Ye Chen, swear with my Dao heart and life! I will do everything in my power to obtain the Dragonheart Fruit and completely heal Little Ying’s injuries!”
This was a man’s promise!
Chu Hong nodded contentedly, “Alright, I’ll leave this matter to you. Even with the Chu family’s influence, it’s very difficult to infiltrate the inner circles of the Divine Kingdom. What we can reach is only the lowest stratum of their powers.
There’s something you might not know. Actually, there’s also a Chu family within the Divine Kingdom, backed by the Wangshen Building. Regrettably, I have no say in their affairs; I can only be considered a distant relative of a distant relative.
Your situation will be different once you officially enter the Divine Kingdom! However, you must also be careful. Your current strength is already quite remarkable, but the Divine Kingdom is a frightful place!”
He could feel that although Ye Chen’s division of realms was not high, his strength was truly extraordinary. Not to mention his own innate abilities, just the Soul Devices he produced were terrifying!
Chu Hong knew that although Soul Devices were heaven-defying, their power was also largely determined by the user, and in Ye Chen’s hands, they could release their most formidable strength!
What if Ye Chen, throwing all caution to the wind, crazily used the Soul Devices to attack a certain power?
Even the Chu family within the Divine Kingdom would have to change color!
Ye Chen nodded seriously, “Junior understands!”
Chu Hong smiled, “Enough about that for now. Today’s meeting here is also for another matter.”
Ye Chen displayed a slight smile, raised his hand, and passed a storage bag to Chu Hong!
Even though Chu Hong, as the Chu Family Patriarch, was extremely, extremely composed, when he took the storage bag, he couldn’t help but widen his eyes in astonishment!
Even the hand holding the storage bag trembled slightly!
He was thrilled!
Then, Chu Hong, somewhat eagerly, immersed his spiritual sense into it!
In an instant, on Chu Hong’s handsome face, an expression of utter astonishment appeared!
First was shock, absolute shock, so intense that his brain couldn’t handle the impact and turned blank!
Even though he had received prior information and prepared himself mentally, seeing nearly nine thousand powerful Soul Devices at once still left him dumbfounded!
The impact was too horrifying!
What was the concept of nine thousand?
That could potentially annihilate nine thousand peak-level Sealed Gate realm experts, or even half-step Great Void Strong People!
If counting aside the Nine Remoteness Kingdom, the entire Lingwu Continent might not be able to find so many Sealed Gate realm experts, right?
Of course, that was the best-case scenario. Ordinary users would more likely severely wound a Sealed Gate expert, nowhere near as fearsome as Soul Devices in Ye Chen’s hands.
Otherwise, with these nine thousand Soul Devices, the Chu family could even consider conquering the entire Lingwu Continent.
What followed was disbelief, which then turned into ecstasy!
Chu Hong took several deep breaths to gradually calm his emotions.
With a serious face, Chu Hong addressed Ye Chen solemnly, “Ye Chen, I want to secure the exclusive rights to the Soul Devices you manufacture. From now on, I will provide you with the highest-quality Soul Iron Artifact Embryos at no cost, and moreover, the price of each Soul Device will be increased by twice the amount of Divine Cloud Stones. What do you think?”
Chu Hong knew that as a merchant on the Lingwu Continent, he had no right to get in touch with the Divine Kingdom’s Chu family!
But if he could control so many resources, perhaps he could gain the respect of the Divine Kingdom’s Chu family!
Moreover, Ye Chen’s strength would become even greater in the future! The Soul Devices he refined would become even more terrifying!
Surely it wouldn’t be long before Ye Chen reached the Great Void division of realms, would it?
Chu Hong knew that the method of crafting Soul Devices was to seal soul techniques inside the Artifact Embryos. In other words, the strength of a Soul Device was determined by the strength of its creator!
But with Ye Chen’s current soul power, he could already create Soul Devices comparable to those of the Great Void division. So, what about when Ye Chen truly had the power of the Great Void division?
By then, the Soul Devices Ye Chen created would surpass those of the Great Void division! They might even be capable of contending with those of the Disaster Slaying division!
By that time, the Chu family of the Nine Remoteness Kingdom might even receive an invitation from the Divine Kingdom’s Chu family!
Chu Hong’s decision was very wise!
Ye Chen was nonchalant, nodding with a smile, “Naturally, there’s no problem.”
Not to mention anything else, just because of Chu Ying’s relationship, he had no intention of selling his Soul Devices to any trade associations other than Wangshen Building and Moon Pavilion.
As for the price, what Chu Hong offered was very, very fair, and as for Ye Chen, he didn’t care too much because after all, earning so many Divine Cloud Stones in one month meant from now on, money was really just a number to him.
After hearing this, Chu Hong could hardly contain his laughter and in the same motion, he threw out two storage bags.
He said to Ye Chen with a smile, “These two storage bags, one is the payment. The other storage bag contains thirty thousand pieces of Soul Iron Artifact Embryos collected by Wangshen Building for you, all of exceptionally high quality. Moreover, our Chu family and those from the Divine Kingdom are also searching for an even higher-level one, the kind used in Ancient Times, which could be described as perfect Soul Iron!”
Ye Chen directly pocketed the two storage bags, and upon hearing this, he was overjoyed again, for perfect Soul Iron would make even more powerful Soul Devices when refined!
“Thank you, Uncle. Now, if there’s nothing else, this junior should return to Divine Fire Academy. Tianchen Auction is about to begin, and I need to prepare and set off as soon as possible!”
Chu Hong nodded then suddenly, as he watched Ye Chen’s retreating figure, his gaze flickered and he said with some concern, “Ye Chen, wait a moment?”
“Uncle, what’s the matter?”
Chu Hong said, “Right now, your fortune can basically crush all the forces on Lingwu Continent! But I still want to remind you that you, my child, are good in every way except that your style is too flamboyant!
At the auction, try to keep a low profile wherever possible!”
Although Chu Hong greatly appreciated Ye Chen’s arrogance and flamboyance, after all, he still had some merchant mindset!
He did not want Ye Chen to sweep through the auction with his vast wealth, attracting so many powerful enemies!
Although, among the other top-tier powers within the Nine Remoteness Kingdom, it might be possible to gather so many Divine Cloud Stones, but! They wouldn’t invest so many Divine Cloud Stones in the auction!
If there really was a competition, perhaps no one would be a match for Ye Chen!
Upon hearing this, Ye Chen felt a warmth in his heart, knowing that Chu Hong genuinely cared about him, but he still looked a bit mischievous as he replied, “Well, I will try my best!”
Chu Hong hesitated for a few seconds before adding, “Recently, the depths of the Nine Remoteness Kingdom have been filled with continuous phenomena, with dark clouds covering the sky over the demon race, a phenomenon that has never occurred in ten thousand years.”
“It’s as if Doomsday has arrived.”
“Do you know anything?”
Ye Chen was startled, thinking that the Demon Emperor would be resurrected in about twenty days, he kept a watchful eye and replied, “Uncle, try to stay away from the demon race these days.”
“All I can tell you is that the rules of the Nine Remoteness Kingdom, even those of the demon race, are about to change!”
With that, he turned into a flash of lightning and sped away as a Golden Thunderbolt!
