Chapter 110: Cooperation? The Sword Secret Realm! Qin Erlong's Shock!
Chapter 110: Cooperation? The Sword Secret Realm! Qin Erlong's Shock!
Su Ping stared at the secret realm vortex before him, stunned for about a third of a second, then suddenly strode towards the vortex, stopping just half a meter away.
He didn't dare enter recklessly but instead scrutinized the passageway of this spatial channel.
Is this the secret realm that even a person like Dong Muchun has been longing for?
However, before he could react, a faint voice echoed from within:
"Beastmasters can enter the Sword Secret Realm, find the Sword Soul Imprint, and obtain the Sword's inheritance! Those who enter must not exceed the Commander rank, or they will be suppressed by the secret realm to Commander level strength."
The voice wasn't loud, but it was exceptionally clear!
Sword inheritance? Sword Secret Realm? This secret realm isn't the undead-type realm I imagined? Su Ping blinked, but most importantly, the Sword Soul Imprint...
Su Ping glanced at the little paper figure beside him, who maintained his pose, but the illusory sword-shaped shadow on his body had already disappeared.
Suddenly, Su Ping seemed to sense something, and with a thought, the little paper figure's body was collected into his Beast Taming Space.
The next moment, a figure appeared in the sky beside him, accompanied by a trail of fireworks. She wore a mechanical armor, as if liquid mercury had been painted onto Dong Muchun's curvaceous body.
Her face and flowing hair were clearly visible on the helmet.
Su Ping heaved a sigh of relief. Even though the little paper figure was recalled into the Beast Taming Space, the secret realm's gate remained open.
Evidently, as long as the Sword Soul Imprint was activated, the gate to this secret realm would open.
Dong Muchun's gaze was fixed on the scene before her, her beautiful eyes filled with uncontrollable excitement.
Finally, it's open!
After waiting for so many years and making so many preparations for this secret realm gate, it's finally open!
Dong Muchun took a deep breath, almost wanting to enter immediately, but then she saw Su Ping's unfriendly gaze blocking her path.
"Miss Dong, I hope you'll respect my wishes. This is my home, and you're trespassing."
Dong Muchun suppressed the urge to have Yun Tian Vacation Resort's Yun Tian instantly split this brat in half, then took a deep breath and said, "Su Ping, I truly have no ill intentions. You should know that with your current strength, developing this secret realm will be a long and arduous task. Why don't we cooperate? Together, we can quickly develop this secret realm, and your growth and improvement will be much faster!"
Su Ping nodded, pretending to consider her proposal.
In the past, Su Ping would have preferred to cooperate with the Beastmaster Association or even seek out the official Royal Observatory. He would never have agreed to collaborate with these capitalists.
However, after learning the true nature of this secret realm, he almost immediately agreed to Dong Muchun's suggestion.
This is an inheritance-type secret realm!
It's a secret realm left by ancient Beastmasters for accepting disciples!
And the key to unlocking this inheritance is the little paper figure, Qian Yi!
Aside from this Sword inheritance, what else of true value and worth could there be in this so-called Sword Tomb?
Even if there is something, it wouldn't be the most precious.
Therefore, under the guise of cooperation, Su Ping could easily obtain some benefits from Dong Muchun in exchange for this insignificant item.
So, Su Ping pretended to consider her offer and said, "How do you propose we cooperate?"
"I only need twenty-four hours of exploration time! After twenty-four hours, I will definitely leave. You can have whatever percentage of the findings you want, or any resources or rewards."
Su Ping's eyes lit up. "Anything?"
Dong Muchun's eyes gleamed with suppressed joy. Although the Beast Taming Space expands over time after the owner's death, twenty-four hours would be more than enough for her to thoroughly search a secret realm.
This brat actually agreed!
So, the big boss Dong waved her hand grandly, "Anything!"
"How about a Saint-level or Legendary-level Companion Beast cub and three Saint-level resources?"
Su Ping blinked innocently at the woman before him, who seemed like a benevolent female Bodhisattva.
At that moment, the female Bodhisattva transformed into a female Yaksha.
"You..." Dong Muchun forced herself to stop the curse that almost slipped out and stared at Su Ping.
"Such things are far beyond the value of a secret realm. Don't even think about it. After all, we don't even know what this secret realm is all about.
How about this: Yun Tian Vacation Resort was built specifically for this secret realm. After I finish exploring, I'll transfer everything to you, including the equipment, personnel, and facilities. I'll hand it all over to you!"
Su Ping was genuinely tempted, "That's not enough!"
Dong Muchun sighed, "Then tell me, what else do you want?"
Su Ping narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing Dong Muchun's voluptuous figure up and down.
Dong Muchun instinctively took a step back, looking at this stinky brat with a mix of vigilance and astonishment.
He actually dares to set his sights on her?
But the next moment, she realized her misunderstanding.
"This mechanical beast of yours is truly remarkable, Boss Dong."
"Great!" Dong Muchun nodded.
"Aside from Yun Tian, I'll give you another mechanical core. That should be enough, right?"
"Ten!"
Su Ping boldly demanded ten!
"Impossible. The mechanical core is a strategic resource, and its value far surpasses those failed mechanical creations. Two is my bottom line!"
In reality, the bottom line for capitalists isn't necessarily as valuable as the facade of a brothel.
After a round of haggling, Su Ping's mouth went dry from all the talking, and they finally settled on four mechanical cores!
Both sides felt they had gotten a good deal. Dong Muchun, who had been waiting for over half an hour, finally couldn't hold back any longer. Was she finally able to enter and investigate?
However, just as she took her first step, the secret realm vortex that had been present all this time slowly dissipated into nothingness.
"What's going on?"
Su Ping glanced at the little paper figure that had fainted due to the exhaustion of energy in the beast taming space, feeling a bit embarrassed as he touched his nose.
"Is it because the space is still unstable and can't maintain a fixed existence?"
Dong Muchun nodded:
"It's possible. But since the secret realm door has already appeared, it's probably just a matter of days. Anyway, come to Yun Tian tomorrow and sign the contract."
If they didn't sign the contract, Dong Muchun was genuinely a bit worried about what tricks this cunning little devil might pull.
Fortunately, Su Ping was thinking the same.
In fact, he was even more thorough than he had anticipated.
The next morning, Su Ping arrived at his own home.
His respectful demeanor resembled that of a young bride meeting her in-laws for the first time.
In a sense, it was indeed quite similar.
Su Ping didn't have to wait long.
Soon after, an ordinary vehicle stopped at the entrance of the Wood Core Breeding Base.
And from it emerged a figure that had been absent for a long time.
"President Qin!"
Su Ping respectfully bowed.
Indeed, the person before him was none other than the president of the top beast taming association in Jianghai Province—Qin Erlong.
Qin Erlong smiled and nodded:
"Xiao Xue mentioned you to me before, and I've been waiting for your news. Coincidentally, I also want to see how this secret realm turns out."
For ordinary people, encountering a secret realm is a rare occurrence, but for Qin Erlong, it was evidently not uncommon.
"I appreciate your concern. It's mainly because of the Yun Tian Group. If there wasn't an elder keeping an eye on things, I wouldn't feel at ease..."
"Rest assured. With me here, no one can force you to do anything. However, I didn't expect you to choose to collaborate with Yun Tian."
Qin Erlong smiled and said:
"Alright, aren't you going to sign a contract with that Dong family girl? Let's go."
Su Ping smiled, and only then did he enter Yun Tian with Qin Erlong. With Dong Muchun's instructions, their path was smooth, and they arrived at her office.
Dong Muchun had been waiting there, and seeing Su Ping finally arrive after half a day, she spoke:
"You're finally here. I..."
Her words choked in her throat as she saw Qin Erlong, who was following behind with a smile, and her face immediately became extremely expressive!
Qin Erlong smiled slightly:
"Little Su is worried, so he asked me to come and take a look. Miss Dong, do you mind?"
Dong Muchun hurriedly smiled and said:
"Of course not. It's an honor to meet you. Please, have a seat."
She looked at Su Ping, who was also smiling, and her eyes held a hint of resentment.
Is it necessary?
Is it necessary to sign just one contract?
Although she had indeed considered having her lawyer make some adjustments to the contract, did you have to send this person to keep an eye on her?
However, it was evident that she couldn't say anything at that moment. She signaled to the lawyer beside her and then personally picked up the teapot to pour a cup of tea for Qin Erlong.
"President Qin, this is my father's newly acquired Flame Heart Tea. It has a rich flavor. Please try it."
Qin Erlong picked up the cup, took a sip, and nodded:
"Good. How's Dong Ling Tian doing lately?"
"Thanks to you, my father is in good health."
Su Ping glanced at Dong Muchun, who didn't seem inclined to pour him a cup, so he took the initiative and poured one for himself.
He also tasted it under Dong Muchun's unfriendly gaze: "It is indeed good tea."
Qin Erlong smiled without concern and said:
"I've heard about Little Su's situation. It's a good thing that a secret realm appeared in Linzhou! Little Su's conditions aren't too excessive.
"It's a win-win situation for both of us."
"Yes!"
In fact, despite Dong Muchun's death yesterday, Qin Erlong was right—Su Ping's demands were not excessive.
After a whole morning of pleasantries, the lawyer finally arrived with two contracts.
Su Ping didn't rush to look at them; he handed them directly to Qin Erlong, who glanced at them and nodded.
After signing the contracts and writing down their names, both Su Ping and Dong Muchun breathed a sigh of relief.
Once they printed out copies for both parties, the matter was finally settled.
Mechanical cores! Su Ping's heart was filled with excitement.
His father's Super Shadow, and the Cultivator Association's compressor, were all products of failed mechanical core awakenings!
But even then, their value was already unimaginably high.
And now, four intelligent cores had been successfully acquired through Su Ping's clever negotiation? Dong Muchun felt satisfied.
Regardless, a huge burden had been lifted from her heart.
Looking at Su Ping, she no longer felt the same dislike, and a smile appeared on her face:
"It's a pleasure to work with you. It's almost lunchtime, Old Qin, Su, do you want to stay for a meal?"
Clearly, Dong Muchun was just being polite, but to her surprise, both Su Ping and Qin Erlong nodded:
"Sure."
At the dining table, after everything was settled, Dong Muchun finally dared to start flirting:
"Su Ping, you're so handsome and talented. I bet you had a lot of girls chasing after you in school, right? Have you ever had a girlfriend?"
Su Ping glanced at this woman. Aside from the fact that he and Qin Xiaoxue were innocent, even if there was something, how could a few words from her affect him? Moreover, this wasn't flirting; it was like she was encouraging Su Ping not to marry into her family.
So, Su Ping nodded and said:
"I did have one!"
Really? Dong Muchun was taken aback. This guy actually admitted it, and she immediately became excited, looking at Qin Erlong.
However, this made Qin Erlong slightly surprised, but instead of getting angry, he smiled and nodded:
"That's good. Experiencing various relationships when you're young will make you more mature and serious in the future. For example, when I was young..."
Huh?
Dong Muchun almost choked on her food, and quickly took a few sips of water, feeling embarrassed under the surprised gazes of the older and younger men:
"Sorry, it's a bit spicy..."
However, at this moment, Dong Muchun's expression suddenly changed, and not just her—Qin Erlong also raised his eyebrows.
"What's wrong?"
Su Ping looked at the two, and Qin Erlong smiled, showing interest:
"Your family's secret realm has appeared again!"
Hmm? Su Ping instinctively glanced at the little paper man in the Beast Taming Space.
The little paper man was still there, and he hadn't fully recovered from the energy depletion of the previous night!
But soon, Su Ping realized what was happening!
This time, it wasn't the little paper man who had summoned the secret realm; the door to the secret realm had formed on its own.
Without wasting any more time, the three of them rose into the air and arrived at the familiar Lingxi Riverbank.
As expected, a spatial vortex slowly appeared on the bank of the stream.
Dong Muchun, seeing the spatial vortex, didn't hesitate and walked right in.
The contract had been signed, and her right to explore was well-deserved.
On the other hand, Su Ping hesitated slightly.
In the end, he made up his mind. At the same time, Qin Erlong turned around, frowning slightly:
"Little Su, this secret realm has restrictions. Given my level, I can no longer force my way in, or the realm will collapse. If you want to enter, be prepared."
Su Ping nodded, then said a word to Qin Erlong before quickly running towards his front yard.
Qin Erlong was a bit puzzled but understood Su Ping's family situation, so he also nodded.
Exploring the secret realm wasn't like a pet beast battle on a platform; it was natural to use non-contracted beasts.
It was probably the Overlord-level old forest wolf he had seen last time.
As expected, Qin Erlong didn't have to wait long.
Su Ping returned, but this time, behind him, there were three figures.
Qin Erlong was a bit taken aback.
The first thing he noticed were the two Overlord-level forest wolves!
Was this guy's background so rich? There were actually two Overlord-level forest wolves that had broken through their racial limits?
However, Qin Erlong's pupils suddenly dilated, and he looked at Su Ping in disbelief.
A figure that resembled a qilin appeared before his eyes.
What kind of pet beast was that?
