Chapter 2960: The Sovereign’s Safety
He Qianchi waved his hand, and a delicate, white jade tea set immediately appeared between the two of them. He took out some spiritual tea from his s.p.a.ce Ring leisurely and personally made the tea. At the same time, he said, “In the current Saints’ World, I really can’t think of a second person that possesses a large quant.i.ty of Soil of Divine Blood apart from fellow Yang Yutian.”
“May I ask how much Soil of Divine Blood you plan on exchanging with our Heavenly Crane clan this time, fellow Yang Yutian?” He Qianchi smiled. He was extremely enthusiastic to Jian Chen, and his eyes were filled with antic.i.p.ation.
Soil of Divine Blood was far more important to the Heavenly Crane clan than any other peak organisation. It was truly a strategic resource to the Heavenly Crane clan.
As a result, He Qianchi obviously hoped he could obtain as much Soil of Divine Blood from Jian Chen as possible. He had even begun considering just what condition to put forth so that Jian Chen would hand over all the Soil of Divine Blood in his possession.
He Qianqian played the role of a female attendant right now. She stood to the side, pouring the freshly-made tea for Jian Chen and He Qianchi elegantly. At the same time, she did not forget to say, “Yang Yutian, you must have realised just how important the Soil of Divine Blood is to our Heavenly Crane clan back then in the Darkstar World. As a result, I hope you can offer all the Soil of Divine Blood you want to exchange to the Heavenly Crane clan. If our Heavenly Crane clan doesn’t possess what you require, we are more than capable of gathering it for you.”
“With our Heavenly Crane clan’s strength, it should be a little easier for us to collect what you require.”
He Qianqian and He Qianchi both expressed their desire for the Soil of Divine Blood without the slightest attempt to hide it. The negotiations had not even begun, and the two of them had already begun jabbering away, wanting to obtain as much Soil of Divine Blood as possible from Jian Chen.
Jian Chen could not help but smile when he was faced with how desperate they were. He cut right to the chase, directly fis.h.i.+ng out a great clump of Soil of Divine Blood from his s.p.a.ce Ring.
“Three catties of Soil of Divine Blood!” He Qianchi immediately sensed the quant.i.ty and became overjoyed. His breathing immediately hastened.
In the past in the Darkstar World, even obtaining a catty of Soil of Divine Blood was extremely difficult for their Heavenly Crane clan, as there was far too much compet.i.tion, yet right now, they could actually obtain so much Soil of Divine Blood effortlessly, which even made He Qianchi, a great elder of the Heavenly Crane clan, turn red from excitement.
“I can give all three catties to your Heavenly Crane clan, but you need to fulfil my conditions.” Jian Chen held the Soil of Divine Blood and looked at He Qianchi with s.h.i.+ning eyes.
“Fellow Yang Yutian, ask away. Our Heavenly Crane clan will do everything we can to fulfill your demands,” He Qianchi patted his chest in guarantee. For the sake of three catties of Soil of Divine Blood, he seemed like he was willing to do anything.
“First of all, I want large quant.i.ties of G.o.d Pills of Condensing Blood. Of course, if you don’t have enough G.o.d Pills of Condensing Blood, other G.o.d Tier pills that can recover essence blood can work too, but their efficacy must be greater than G.o.d Pills of Condensing Blood,” said Jian Chen.
“G.o.d Tier pills that recover essence blood? That’s not a problem. Our ancestor can refine those pills. As long as we have sufficient materials, we can give you as many low grade G.o.d Tier pills as you’d like.” He Qianchi laughed aloud. He felt like Yang Yutian’s first condition was far too easy to satisfy. To the Heavenly Crane clan, it was absolutely nothing.
“An ancestor of the Heavenly Crane clan is a grandmaster of alchemy?” Jian Chen was taken aback.
He Qianchi nodded with a smile. “Only one of the ancestors is a grandmaster alchemist, an existence that can refine high grade G.o.d Tier pills. Even supreme grade G.o.d Tier pills aren’t much of an issue to her. However, it’s been a very long time since our ancestor refined pills for others, as there aren’t a lot of people left in the Saints’ World that can ask our ancestor to refine pills for them.”
Reaching there, He Qianchi paused and gazed at Jian Chen mysteriously. He smiled. “Though, as long as you produce enough Soil of Divine Blood, our ancestor might make an exception.”
Jian Chen sucked in a deep breath and said, “The second condition is I need some information, some absolute secrets that touches on the same level as the Ice G.o.ddess Hall.”
Hearing that, He Qianqian gazed at Jian Chen deeply as if she had been expecting this. She soon looked away and concentrated on making the tea.
He Qianchi was unsurprised too. He chuckled. “Qianqian asked the clan about this information in the past. Looks like the one who truly needed the information was you.”
He Qianchi told He Qianqian to step aside temporarily. Only he and Jian Chen remained on the peak of the icy mountain.
“As a great elder of the Heavenly Crane clan, I have quite the authority in the clan, so I do know a little regarding the Ice G.o.ddess Hall. Ask away. What do you want to know?”
“Everything!” Jian Chen stared at He Qianchi.
He Qianchi nodded slowly before immediately casting down numerous formations cautiously, hiding everything here to the best of his ability. He said sternly, “Sovereigns should not be mentioned carelessly. What I say next touches on the level of sovereigns, so I need to take some precautions.”
Very soon, He Qianchi had cast down the formations. He even pulsed with the power of laws, doing his best to obscure the heavenly secrets and hide everything.
A while later, He Qianchi finally began to slowly speak. “Since you want to know everything, then let’s start with what all the experts on our Ice Pole Plane care about the most, which is the current situation with the sovereign.”
He Qianchi was clearly very careful when it came to the master of the Ice G.o.ddess Hall, one of the seven Grand Exalts of the Saints’ World, the Ice G.o.ddess. Even with these attempts at concealment and obscuring the heavenly secrets, he still refused to directly call the Ice G.o.ddess by her name. He replaced it with the term ‘sovereign’.
“There are two explanations regarding the sovereign’s current state in the Saints’ World. One of them is the sovereign is heavily injured and is currently hiding in the very depths of the divine hall, recovering or slumbering. That place is protected by an extremely terrifying formation. No one is able to approach there…”
“The second explanation is that the sovereign no longer exists… Perhaps she’s gone forever, or perhaps she’s entered rebirth. As a result, even with everything that happened in the divine hall, even when the divine hall had been trespa.s.sed, there was no activity from the sovereign…”
“Is the artifact spirit of the Ice G.o.ddess Hall still around or not?” Jian Chen continued. Perhaps because of his sister, Changyang Mingyue, he was not as fearful of the Ice G.o.ddess Hall as He Qianchi.
“There are numerous sayings regarding the artifact spirit too. Some say the artifact spirit is already dead, while some others say the artifact spirit is heavily injured. Others say that when the artifact spirit was severely weakened, another peak expert, the Flame Reverend, used the opportunity to strike, sealing away the artifact spirit or imprisoning it through some kind of method. Of course, if you want an exact answer, you’ll probably have to go find a sovereign to ask about this.” He Qianchi shook his head before sighing gently. He continued, “It’s rumored that the sovereign of our Ice Pole Plane is cold and aloof in nature and never has any contact with any organisations, nor does she have any allies. As a matter of fact, because of her personality, she has even come into conflict with a few other sovereigns. As a result, in recent years, even when there were still sovereigns in the Saints’ World, none of them have ever come to the Ice Pole Plane.”
“Only we, some of the organisations on the Ice Pole Plane, still think about the sovereign constantly…”
