“You're not afraid I won't return it?” Young Master Qin smiled at the Eternal Pavilion Master.
The Eternal Pavilion Master smiled slightly, “It's just two million Emperor Crystals. Although it's not a small sum, I, Yue Li, am willing to take a gamble. I bet that Young Master Qin is not that kind of callous and ungrateful person. Moreover…”
The Eternal Pavilion Master suddenly glanced at Saroya, “Isn't there still this little brother from the Komodo Beast tribe here? If it comes to it, I could go to the Komodo Beast tribe’s lair and cry, saying that their tribe bullied a weak woman and deceived her feelings. With the reputation of the Komodo Beast tribe, I believe they wouldn’t ruin their own name just for a mere two million Emperor Crystals by bullying a woman like me, right?”
Pfft!
Saroya immediately spat out her tea, raising her head in surprise, blinking her eyes, and looking at the Eternal Pavilion Master in bewilderment.
Damn it.
Is this something a normal person could think of?
Who did she offend to be bullied like this?
“Hahaha.” Young Master Qin laughed heartily, “I didn't expect Master Chu to be such a clever person.”
“Alright.”
With a wave of his hand, two million Emperor Crystals were instantly collected into Young Master Qin's spatial treasure.
“I accept Master Chu's good intentions. As long as Master Chu does not become an enemy of mine, I believe this transaction will not be a loss for you,” Young Master Qin stood up and said to Saroya, “Stop gnawing on the tea leaves, let's go.”
“Oh.”
Saroya quickly responded, crunching the tea cup into her mouth, licking her lips before hurriedly following Young Master Qin out.
“Young Master Qin, here.”
Before they left, the Eternal Pavilion Master tossed out a spatial ring, charmingly saying, “Inside is the special Dao Tea from my Eternal Pavilion. Since Young Master Qin enjoys it so much, feel free to take it. If you run out, just come to my boudoir for more.”
Boudoir?
Saroya stumbled, quickly leaving with Young Master Qin.
The two figures soon disappeared into the vast horizon.
Inside the Eternal Pavilion.
The Eternal Pavilion Master stood at the door, silently watching Young Master Qin and the others leave.
“Master, is it worth it for us to do this?” At this moment, the Old Elder stepped forward, asking with some confusion.
Two million Emperor Crystals is not a small amount, even for a powerful force like the Eternal Pavilion.
“Spending two million Emperor Crystals to win over a powerful being that surpasses the direct lineage of the Komodo Beast tribe, what do you think?” The Eternal Pavilion Master turned to look at him, smiling.
“Surpassing the Komodo Beast tribe?” The Old Elder was astonished, frowning, “Master, are you sure? Although Yerosha calls this person 'Master,' it doesn't necessarily mean it's true. After all, some major clan disciples often use tricks to conceal their identities for safety in the cosmic sea.”
“I initially doubted whether that Qin Chen was Yerosha’s protector, but you also saw the attitudes between the two…” The Eternal Pavilion Master narrowed her eyes, “I can be certain that Yerosha's attitude toward Qin Chen is genuine, even to the point of feeling like a servant before a master.”
The Old Elder looked up in shock. The Master comes from the Eternal Pavilion's headquarters, and he has great admiration for the Master’s insight.
Since the Master is so certain, it’s highly likely to be the truth.
“If Yerosha is not from the direct lineage of the Komodo Beast tribe, then it’s possible that Qin Chen enslaved him when he was weak, but you also saw that the ancestral spirit of the Komodo Beast tribe descended without any special indication, which means that Yerosha is definitely not subdued by him.”
“The Komodo Beast tribe is an extremely proud race; the only way to command such respect from him would be two possibilities.”
“One, that Qin Chen is so strong that he far surpasses us and has reached an unprecedented level, for example... a divine emperor! Naturally, that would make Yerosha submit.” The Eternal Pavilion Master narrowed her eyes.
