A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees-Chapter 1861 - 516 Eye of Blasphemy and Light of Judgment_2
Chapter 1861: 516 Eye of Blasphemy and Light of Judgment_2
Bu Ye thus spoke,
Mr. Matthew was struck by his words,
"Treasure?"
"What treasure?"
Bu Ye replied promptly,
"The Demon Treasure Orb."
"That is the treasure left in the Kingdom of Thousands of Lakes by the Abyssal Lord, Fernando."
"Fernando is the progenitor of all Demon Warlocks in the material world, and the token he left contains authority tied to the main body of the Abyss."
"The orb is of no use to Lady Xue herself, but it holds significant meaning for me."
Mr. Matthew frowned and asked,
"So she still didn't give it to you?"
An angry expression flashed across Bu Ye's unsightly face,
"She gave me a fake one!"
"And the forgery was quite skillful; it took me a long time to realize I had been deceived, trusting her so much!"
"If I hadn't discovered at the last moment that it was a counterfeit, had I taken that orb into the main body of the Abyss, I would have certainly met an unmarked grave!"
"At that moment, I understood that the woman doesn't despise my looks, nor does she hate my identity or race; she simply wants me to disappear from this world!"
"Once she needed me, so she was willing to make promises."
"But when she became the queen of the Kingdom of Thousands of Lakes, I became an obstacle to consolidating her power."
"She would only silently curse me to die."
"Why should I make life easy for such a woman?"

Mr. Matthew thoughtfully thought,
"So, you had Huang Chen and the demons harass the borders of the Kingdom of Thousands of Lakes?"
"But if you hate her so much, why did you make a deal with her again?"
Bu Ye sighed and said,
"I was left with no choice."
"At that time, carrying the fake Demon Treasure Orb, an archenemy from the Abyss took advantage of my vulnerability; that bastard almost beat me to death!"
"I was still under the effects of Lady Xue's banishment spell and other curses, and in order to catch a breath, I had to agree to her terms—
That is, to duel with someone she found every now and then.
If I lose even once,
I can never return to the Kingdom of Thousands of Lakes or trouble her again.
If I win all five times,
Then she promised that this time she would fulfill her previous promise—
To hand over both the Kingdom of Thousands of Lakes and herself..."
Mr. Matthew, with an undecided expression, said,
"So you believed her again?"
The reaction from Bu Ye was vehement,
"Of course, I didn't!"
"Do I look like a fool to be deceived a second time?"
"Exactly because I don't believe she will fulfill her promise, that's why I came to seek you!"
"Mr. Matthew, I am aware of your strength and influence in the world of Aindor!"
"Woman like Lady Xue only obey those who are stronger, smarter than her—you appear to be just such a person!"
"That's why I came here today, to strike a deal with you—
You help me obtain the Demon Treasure Orb from Lady Xue.
In exchange, I can cooperate with you to launch a full-scale attack on the Demoness of Desire's territory at the appropriate time!
Hahaha...
Before coming, I did some homework.
Though the Abyss is isolated, the events happening on Storluk have gradually spread here.
In my territory,
Many demons greatly admire you.
I think we could become the perfect partners!
You dominate the material world while I become the true Abyssal Demon King.
Let our collaboration begin with the Demon Treasure Orb and attacking purgatory, what do you think?"
After listening to Bu Ye's narrative laden with strong personal feelings,
Mr. Matthew squinted his eyes, then suddenly laughed.
This devil,
Isn't as rough as he seems...
He bluntly pointed out the core issue,
"Forgive my directness, but obtaining the Demon Treasure Orb from Lady Xue and attacking purgatory at the appropriate time are not equivalent in this deal."
Bu Ye chuckled and said,
"With your Charm and strength, taking down Lady Xue won't be too difficult."
"And the man she has chosen is claimed to be your friend; you wouldn't want him to come to me, seeking Death, right?"
"Attacking purgatory is a big move, inevitably drawing troops; carefully calculating, I think maybe I'm the one at a bit of a loss!"
However, Mr. Matthew remained unmoved,
"Attacking purgatory is essentially in line with the Will of the main body of the Abyss—an easy task for you demons, right?"
"It's merely a change in the timing."
"The most important point is, I never intended to get involved in this affair."
"If you really want to drag a neutral party like me into this, you'll need to offer a more tempting chip!"
Bu Ye thought for a moment,
"I can offer a divine artefact from the Abyss in exchange!"
Mr. Matthew calmly watched the other party.
After a long pause,
He suddenly smiled gently,
"You see, regarding the trade for the Demon Treasure Orb, we can discuss it."
"But such a significant matter, there's no way two strangers would undertake such a huge deal upon just meeting, right?"
"It's all step by step, gradually building trust, and then considering such a high-level trade, right?"
Bu Ye squinted,
"So, what you mean is..."
Mr. Matthew smiled and said,
"We can first collaborate on the matter of attacking purgatory."
"If our cooperation is enjoyable, then after the Storluk affair is over, I'll definitely help you get the Demon Treasure Orb—of course, you'll also have to provide a divine artefact worthy of exchange."
Bu Ye's eyes nearly narrowed into lines.
He no longer spoke.
He clearly realized that the proposal Mr. Matthew laid out was essentially getting a free ride,
"This is a rare opportunity for any ambitious Abyssal Lord."
