Chapter 495: 493. Three Conditions
Translator: 549690339
“Three conditions?”
Wei Ling’s expression remained unchanged as he asked patiently, “Cult Master
Chen, please tell me what the three conditions are.”
Chen Luoyang retracted one of his three fingers. ‘”‘There is a supreme treasure called the Jade Toad Heart. This is one of them.”
Wei Ling was expressionless, but his heart was in turmoil.
The Jade Toad Heart was indeed a rare treasure. It had not appeared in the mortal world for nearly a thousand years.
However, Wei Ling had once obtained one by chance and kept it a secret. No one knew about it, so the mortal world still believed that the Jade Toad Heart had been extinct for nearly a thousand years.
Even his parents and brothers didn’t know about this.
However, Chen Luoyang had actually raised this condition to him. It was obvious that he had a target in mind and was targeting the Jade Toad Heart in his hand.
But the problem was, how did Chen Luoyang know?
When he obtained the Jade Toad Heart, Chen Luoyang should still be in the Divine Lands.
Although Chen Luoyang was the successor of the Supreme Martial Artist, how could the Supreme Martial Artist be so bored as to pay attention to such matters for his disciple?
Unless the Supreme Martial Artist had paid attention to Wei Ling before.
Could it be that he was also one of the candidates when the Supreme Martial Artist chose his successor?
But in the end, he chose Chen Luoyang…
Wei Ling’s mind was filled with thoughts, but he quickly gathered his thoughts and returned to the present.
He sought the Dome Heaven Stone, while Chen Luoyang sought the Jade Toad Heart.
However, the other party had asked for an exorbitant price. Not only did he not want to give the Heaven Vault Stone away, but he also listed the Jade Toad Heart as one of the three conditions.
It was clear that Chen Luoyang wanted to completely take the Jade Toad Heart for himself before he was willing to borrow the Heaven Dome Stone.
Moreover, the first condition was obviously not negotiable.
The first condition was already a failure. What else could he say?
Strictly speaking, although the Jade Toad Heart was rare, the Heaven Vault Stone was indeed more precious.
However, the value of an item in a transaction depended on how much the buyer needed it.
He wanted the Heaven Dome Stone for cultivation, but why did Chen Luoyang want the Jade Toad Heart?
While Wei Ling was thinking about it, he did not show any hesitation on his face.”This treasure is very rare, and I don’t have full confidence in finding it. I need time to find it. Cult Master Chen, why don’t you tell me the other two conditions? I’ll work hard on both of them.’
“I believe you will definitely find it.” Chen Luoyang smiled faintly.
When Wei Ling heard this, his expression did not change, but his heart immediately sank.
Although Chen Luoyang didn’t expose his earlier reply, he was absolutely certain that he had the Jade Toad Heart.
Chen Luoyang didn’t say much. He raised his finger and retracted the second finger.”Secondly, you and I can spar.”
When Wei Ling heard this, he immediately raised his eyebrows.
This was another condition that was completely out of his expectations.
As one of the top experts of the younger generation of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and one of the Ten Heroes of the Red Dust, Wei Ling’s talent, potential, and current strength were unquestionable.
He was a deep person and did not show his emotions on his face, but he was arrogant and would only be more arrogant than others.
Although he had made up his mind to get along peacefully with Chen Luoyang, he had to try his best to get along peacefully.
However, if the other party tried to bully them, they could just fight if they could not reach an agreement.
It was just that the conditions that Chen Luoyang offered were truly unexpected.
Wei Ling’s expression didn’t change. ” Cult Master Chen’s cultivation has improved so much. I admire you. ‘
He felt that he roughly understood Chen Luoyang’s plan.
The other party was clearly a young and impetuous person.
Thanks to the guidance of the Supreme Martial Artist, he had been reborn within a year, and his realm had advanced by leaps and bounds, rising from the 14th realm to the 17th realm.
However, even though they were both at the seventeenth realm, there might still be differences in strength between people.
Like Wei Ling himself, although he was a rising star, he rarely met opponents in the 17th realm.
Most of the opponents he was staring at were at the 18th realm, the peak of the Martial Saint Realm.
There were very few opponents who were also at the 17th level.
Just like how there were strong and weak Martial Saints among the top ten, no matter how controversial the rankings were, they would still be ranked.
There might be differences between the Red Dust Ten Heroes, even if the difference was very small.
From Wei Ling’s point of view, Chen Luoyang had taken the initiative to challenge him because he wanted to measure his own level among the 17th level Martial Saints.
After a legendary series of breakthroughs and reaching the 17th realm, Chen Luoyang undoubtedly had the qualifications to become one of the Ten Heroes of the Red Dust.
However, in actual combat, he needed a suitable opponent to measure his level.
Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles.
This young man who had suddenly risen to prominence in front of him also needed to position himself well in order to be beneficial to his future development.
“I haven’t finished speaking.” Chen Luoyang said.
Wei Ling looked at Chen Luoyang and heard him continue, ‘”‘This time, you and I will be sparring behind closed doors. No one else will be involved, but I will arrange for someone to watch.”
After hearing the first half of the sentence, Wei Ling thought that Chen Luoyang didn’t have enough confidence in winning and had made the request for the sake of his future reputation.
However, when he heard the second half of the sentence, he realized that it did not seem to be the case.
“Spectator?” Wei Ling confirmed.
“A Martial Emperor.” Chen Luoyang nodded.
Wei Ling pondered and did not answer immediately.
Chen Luoyang’s current meaning was that this spectator was clearly here to observe and learn.
Generally speaking, when two people were fighting, whether or not to allow others to watch the fight depended on the wishes of both parties.
The spectators were not skilled enough and were chased away. Naturally, there was nothing much to say.
Some people didn’t take this to heart, while others would reject it.
Some did not want to expose their own depth to more outsiders, while others did not like to be surrounded by people like folk performers.
Wei Ling was the type that rejected people watching the battle.
However, Chen Luoyang had specifically mentioned this condition, so he couldn’t reject it.
‘ This battle is limited. We will stop at the end of the battle to avoid any injuries. How much he can comprehend will depend on his own luck. ” Wei Ling finally said.
His strength at the 17th level was comparable to that of a peak 18th level Martial Saint. If he really attacked, even a Martial Emperor at the 15th level would not be able to see his movements clearly, let alone gain some insight from watching the battle.
Chen Luoyang was already at the 17th realm, so he didn’t need to hold back.
However, Wei Ling had specially limited this battle to prevent Chen Luoyang from letting the Martial Emperor watch the battle while he was cultivating with the help of the Dome Stone.
He was proud and arrogant. In fact, he did not think that the other party could understand much, but he did not like the feeling of letting others benefit for nothing.
Although he had already decided that peace was the most important thing when discussing conditions with Chen Luoyang, Wei Ling would also retreat and advance. He wouldn’t blindly compromise.
He indeed desired the Heavenly Dome Stone, but it wasn’t to the extent of disregarding everything.
Chen Luoyang’s expression was indifferent and he didn’t continue to be entangled in this matter. He calmly nodded and said, “”Don’t worry, I’ve said it before. I have no intention of spying on the absolute art you’re cultivating.”
Wei Ling said, ” Alright, I agree to the second condition. What is Cult Master Chen’s third condition? ‘
Chen Luoyang retracted his third finger and smiled. As for the third matter, I don’t have a solution yet. I’ll leave it to you first. It won’t be too late to talk about it when I have an idea in the future.
Wei Ling frowned. ” Cult Master Chen, I came here with great sincerity. However, your last move is a bit of a joke. ‘
“You can refuse and leave.” Chen Luoyang’s tone was neither salty nor indifferent as he raised his teacup.
Wei Ling fell silent as he stared at Chen Luoyang and didn’t speak for a long time.
Chen Luoyang was much more relaxed than him and was leisurely sipping his tea.
“Alright.”
After a long time, Wei Ling finally spoke,”lt won’t be too late for us to talk after Cult Master Chen has considered the third condition. As long as it’s within my power, I will definitely keep my promise today.”
Chen Luoyang nodded.
He was not worried that the other party would go back on his word in the future.
Putting aside the fact that there was a ” treehouse ” factor, even if there was none, he could naturally make up for it in other ways.
Wei Ling was also very straightforward. He had already agreed to Chen Luoyang’s second and third conditions, so he also agreed to the first condition, which was the Jade Toad Heart.
However, what he had said earlier was not good for him to slap his own face, so he said,”After we part ways today, I will deliver the Jade Toad Heart to Cult
Master Chen as soon as I find it.’
Borrowing the Heaven Dome Stone was not something that happened once or twice.
Yu Chan felt that he wouldn’t be able to delay for long, so he might as well be straightforward and deliver it to Chen Luoyang the next time.
“Alright, let’s do the second thing first.” Chen Luoyang similarly didn’t urge Yu Chan’s heart. He just put down the teacup and stood up.
Wei Ling also stood up. Then, his heart moved slightly and he turned to look outside the straw hut.
A young man with disheveled hair in linen clothes came to the grass hut.
When he saw Chen Luoyang and Wei Ling ‘er come out, the youth chuckled and greeted, “”Senior Brother!”
It was Su Ye.
After greeting him, his eyes suddenly lit up. He looked at Wei Ling, and there was a faint purple lightning in the depths of his eyes.
Wei Ling was shocked.
The young man in front of him was extremely sharp.
He, Wei Ling, was the same as Chen Luoyang. He had long reached the state of returning to his original state.
Although it could not be concealed, logically speaking, a Martial Monarch Realm expert should not be able to see through its extraordinariness.
But now, Su Ye had clearly sensed it.
However, this only surprised Wei Ling. It was far from enough to make him shocked.
What shocked Wei Ling was actually the way Su Ye addressed Chen Luoyang.
Senior Brother?
Chen Luoyang’s master was the legendary Red Dust Supreme.
“This is my father’s last disciple.” Chen Luoyang said indifferently. He did not intend to make Su Ye a successor of the Supreme Martial Artist.
First, rare things are expensive.
Secondly, Su Ye’s mind was lacking. He would know the truth after being tricked by someone with ill intentions. As his senior brother, he could not just watch from the side all day.
Therefore, there was no need for such a misunderstanding.
“I see.” Wei Ling was relieved.
After he calmed down, he looked at Su Ye playfully. “”Your father has a discerning eye for talent.”
Compared to Su Ye, who noticed that he was extraordinary, Wei Ling could see Su Ye’s general situation with his cultivation, strength, and vision.
In his eyes, the young man in front of him didn’t seem to be a person, but more like a sharp spear.
It was just like how Su Ye saw a spear that seemed to be able to pierce through the mortal world standing beside his Senior Brother Chen Luoyang..
