Eternal Holy Emperor-Chapter 738 - 683: Ask for an Exorbitant Price
Chapter 738: Chapter 683: Ask for an Exorbitant Price
"Everyone go back, I’ve already taken control of this place."
This statement was more shocking to the talents of Ten Thousand Realms than when Ye Chen effortlessly dispelled Young Master Junwei’s attack; this Wind Sky City had actually been occupied by the young man standing before them.
How had Wind Sky City been taken so quickly? They had been gathering information all along the way, hearing that none of the other heavenly talents had made a move on this city, which was why they had come.
Yet, who was this clear-browed and handsome-looking man who had taken control, and from whence did he come?
Everyone felt this person seemed familiar but couldn’t recognize his identity because Ye Chen appeared so indifferent and calm. Although he hadn’t pulled off any miraculous feats of deceit, his unique Golden Blood and domineering presence were subdued, making him hard to identify.
"Who are you? What gives you the right to say that Wind Sky City is yours?" Princess Jiucai spoke up, her eyes shimmering and fixated on Ye Chen, exuding an air of cold elegance.
Ye Chen didn’t respond. The Corpse-devouring Worm Emperor at his side had already enlarged his form, shaking his head and drooling with a grin, his eyes hungrily staring at Princess Jiucai’s voluptuous curves, marvelling and drooling as he said, "Little Sister, it doesn’t matter who he is, but I, Lord Dragon, can assure you here, as long as you submit to me, I’ll let you enter the city right away. How about it?"
Seeing the Jiao Beast leering at her with lustful eyes, Princess Jiucai couldn’t help but feel revulsion, her beautiful eyes narrowing, as she snapped coldly, "What are you looking at, you foul worm? Look at me one more time, and I will gouge out your eyes."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. Such a fiery temper on a pretty little thing—I like it," the Corpse-devouring Worm Emperor chuckled lewdly, his grin as vulgar as they come, provoking Princess Jiucai to the point of near rage. What was this creature, daring to ogle her so brazenly?
In her Ancient Country, she was like a brilliant jewel, receiving the attention and importance of all. Every heavenly pride of the country adored and revered her, a treatment unlike this.
A group of young talents looked at the Jiao Beast with curiosity; they’d never seen such an aberrant beast, daring even to tease Princess Jiucai. This was a first in many years.
"Look all you want. You won’t find a dragon as dashing and suave as me," the Corpse-devouring Worm Emperor sneered dismissively.
The audience of young talents could not help but purse their lips, thinking not of handsomeness or suavity but that they had never seen such a shameless dragon before.
Young Master Junwei didn’t bother with the despicable dragon; instead, he turned his gaze to Ye Chen, his handsome face taking on a serious expression.
He could sense a hint of danger emanating from Ye Chen, as if this attractive young man harbored an immense and unimaginable Dao Power within him.
"Who are you?"
Young Master Junwei asked solemnly, his voice laden with gravity.
Ye Chen said, "Who I am is not important. What matters is that Wind Sky City now belongs to me. Either leave or enter the city by paying a certain price."
"Price?" All the young talents laughed, finding Ye Chen’s demand ludicrous, shaking their heads in disbelief. Princess Jiucai said coldly, "Boy, no matter who you are, do you realize who he is? He is Young Master Junwei. Are you still daring to ask Young Master Junwei for this so-called ’price’ now?"
Ye Chen didn’t so much as glance at Princess Jiucai, leaving the stunningly beautiful princess feeling as though she’d punched cotton—powerless and infuriated, biting down on her silver teeth.
"What price?" Surprisingly, Young Master Junwei actually asked.
Ye Chen didn’t respond, and the Corpse-devouring Worm Emperor directly spoke, jokingly and flippantly, "Just serve as the personal warm bedchamber maid for your Lord."
"You despicable worm, I’ll fight you to the death." Princess Jiucai became furious, having never seen anyone, no, a worm, so shameless and brazen.
The Corpse-devouring Worm Emperor somehow had acquired a stone chair and sat down on it, lounging with a leg crossed over the other, leaning on the chair and beckoning with a hooked finger, all while grinning cheekily, "Come on, if you don’t dare, you’re admitting to be the mother of my child."
"Ah!" Princess Jiucai was about to lose her mind. Was there someone so rogue and wretched?
If it weren’t for the City Protection Light Screen that Wind Sky City had activated, she really would have rushed up to beat this despicable dragon senseless and stew him until done.
"Each person provides a 7,000-year-old Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, ten jin of Saint Lord Level Divine Material, and three Fifth-grade Pills. That should suffice," said Ye Chen.
That should suffice?
Everyone’s eyes widened in shock; those demands were astronomical.
A 7,000-year-old Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures could already significantly extend one’s lifespan, Saint Lord Level Divine Materials were incredibly precious, as were Fifth-grade Pills, and these could represent essentially the entire wealth of a typical Saint, yet this fellow actually had the gall to quote such steep prices.
Young Master Junwei’s eyebrows knitted together, his eyes flickering with a sharp, intimidating presence, emanating a powerful sovereign’s majesty. A stream of violet aura flowed from him as he stared at Ye Chen, coldly saying, "Fellow Daoist, aren’t you demanding a lion’s share?"
"I don’t think so," Ye Chen replied calmly, "Either pay the price or leave."
"Young man, do you even realize who he is? He’s Young Master Junwei, a sovereign of his generation. Would you still dare speak to Young Master Junwei like this after knowing who he is?" another person said, once again emphasizing Young Master Junwei’s royal status.
In a cold tone, Ye Chen replied, "Never mind a sovereign; even if a Supreme True King came, it would be the same."
The Heavenly talents were all stunned. The young man’s audacity was astonishing; even if a Supreme True King were to come, he would still demand the same terms? That was the Absolute Peak of supreme Heavenly Pride; if such an individual appeared, would he really converse like this? He would just directly overthrow with brute force.
They’d long heard rumors that each of those Supreme True Kings was incredibly fierce, striking down ancient cities on their own, and some had even managed to break through the City Protection Light Screens and took residence in ancient cities.
Such supreme combat power was far beyond any sovereign; otherwise, why bother with idle talk and not just attack directly?
Young Master Junwei’s handsome face grew stern as he said, "Fine, since Fellow Daoist has spoken thusly, I too wish to see if the City Protection Light Screen of Wind Sky City is truly as impenetrable as claimed."
Boom—
Stepping forward, a Divine Bell appeared in his hand, shimmering with a rainbow shine—red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet light swirling, as if draping a rainbow over him, while exuding the most powerful and majestic Saintly Might, which wholly revived in Young Master Junwei’s hands.
"Young Master Junwei is going to forcefully attack the City Protection Light Screen to breach the city," exclaimed the thirty-some Heavenly Pride elites around him, their eyes alight with fervor.
