Chapter 230: Negotiations Between the White Sect Master and Senior Zhenren Shangxuan
In Tiangang City, the White Sect Master had already sought out Senior Zhenren Shangxuan.
The two sects were already familiar with each other, so their conversation was straightforward without any unnecessary detours.
"Brother Bai, are you sure he's willing to give the Heavenly Blossom Fruit?"
The White Sect Master nodded repeatedly.
"As the esteemed Sect Master of Yunyang Sect, how could he possibly make empty promises?"
"Even if he doesn't have it, we can ask him to give us something first, and then send that disciple later."
In front of Senior Zhenren Shangxuan, the White Sect Master of Eagleeye Sect did his best to speak highly of Yunyang Sect.
He truly wanted that Blood Apex Pill.
Moreover, with half a Heavenly Blossom Fruit as a gift, it would be a significant benefit for Tiangang City.
Senior Zhenren Shangxuan furrowed his brows.
If the fruit was indeed offered, it would be worth considering.
This item could be considered a heavenly treasure, and after consuming it, Su Chen would undoubtedly benefit greatly.
Obtaining heavenly treasures was highly dependent on chance.
Even if one ventured into danger, there was no guarantee of success.
Take Gu Feng, for example; he often went out to train, and upon receiving some news, he would go in search of those so-called treasures.
Most of the time, it was a fruitless endeavor.
But this time, if they agreed to Grandmaster Taiwu's invitation, they would undoubtedly obtain half a Heavenly Blossom Fruit within four months.
Upon calculation, it seemed like a good deal.
Currently, it was the last month of the year, and four months later, it would be the third month, marking the beginning of spring.
In Senior Zhenren Shangxuan's opinion, it might indeed be feasible.
Venturing for a heavenly treasure wasn't unusual; it could even be considered normal.
Disciples like Gu Feng would even go in search of related news, braving the dangers.
To enhance their strength and earn the title of Celestial Prodigy, this step was indeed unavoidable.
Celestial Prodigy disciples couldn't hide within the sect just because of potential dangers.
Doing so would only result in wasting their innate talent and potential.
At this thought, Senior Zhenren Shangxuan suddenly changed the topic and turned to the White Sect Master beside him.
"Brother Bai, it seems like you've been speaking up for that fool Taiwu all day."
The sudden question caught the White Sect Master off guard.
In his hesitation, he chose not to lie.
"Actually, Grandmaster Taiwu wants to give me a Blood Apex Pill."
"That fool is willing to offer so much just to snatch my disciple.
It's a pity he can't take this disciple away from me."
The White Sect Master suppressed his curiosity and refrained from asking further.
He was genuinely curious about which disciple named Chen Su had caught the attention of the Yunyang Sect Master.
However, given the current situation, it was best not to ask.
Everyone present was an experienced player in the secular world.
Grandmaster Taiwu seemed to have offered many benefits, but his demands were likely even greater.
Most likely, he wanted to take this disciple to Yunyang Sect.
The two discussed the matter and went over the specific details.
For a treasure like the Heavenly Blossom Fruit, if Yunyang Sect were to give it in advance, they would undoubtedly find excuses to refuse.
But if Su Chen went to help and then received it, Senior Zhenren Shangxuan would have no choice but to agree.
A secret medicine box could be used for this purpose.
This medicine box had a key, and without it, the box couldn't be opened.
Forcing it open would contaminate the fruit inside with poison.
This way, Su Chen's side would first obtain the medicine box with the Heavenly Blossom Fruit.
But to open it, they would need to get the key after helping Yunyang Sect.
This way, if not completely reassuring both parties, it would at least provide some peace of mind.
With this in mind, Senior Zhenren Shangxuan sent someone to find Su Chen.
Su Chen had been in Tiangang City for a year.
Within this year, Senior Zhenren Shangxuan had witnessed Su Chen's abilities and the changes in Tiangang City.
Although Su Chen couldn't take all the credit for Tiangang City's stability this year, his contributions were undoubtedly immense.
Thinking back to last year's Tiangang City, the frontlines were in a dire state, riddled with wounds and holes.
Within a short year, they've managed to advance the frontlines.
In the courtyard, Shangxuan Zhenren had already prepared two cups of tea, awaiting Su Chen's arrival.
Upon receiving the news, Su Chen quickly arrived at Shangxuan Zhenren's courtyard.
Shangxuan Zhenren was very frank with Su Chen.
He openly shared everything that Bai Zongzhu, the leader of the Yunyang Sect, had discussed during his previous visit.
"Your visit to the Yunyang Sect last time left quite an impression on them."
Grandmaster Taiwu has really gone all out."
Hearing this, Su Chen couldn't help but feel a bit helpless.
"At the time, I only thought that as the leader of the Yunyang Sect, he might benefit from some suggestions, and they would be the quickest to see results."
Shangxuan Zhenren smiled and waved his hand.
"The Yunyang Sect's invitation to you this time is definitely related to the Earth Demon Plague.
I've also received some news recently.
Due to the Earth Demon Plague, two Yunyang Sect disciples were dragged into the wilderness.
There seem to be quite a few injured disciples as well.
After witnessing your abilities last time, they probably want to borrow your strength again."
Hearing this, Su Chen's expression turned serious.
"Great Elder, do we know the names of the two abducted disciples?"
"My information isn't that detailed, but I heard they were scout disciples."
Scout Disciples
Yu Zhi Shijie doesn't seem to be a scout disciple.
"Regarding the Yunyang Sect's invitation, do you have any thoughts on it?"
Seeing Su Chen's slight hesitation, Shangxuan Zhenren continued.
"I believe it's worth giving it a try.
The Yunyang Sect isn't some sinister cult, at least on the surface, they won't resort to underhanded means.
This time, Grandmaster Taiwu is willing to offer the Heavenly Blossom Fruit as a reward, and such a heavenly treasure will greatly benefit you.
If Gu Feng obtained news of heavenly treasures, he would venture into dangerous places to seek opportunities.
This time, you're guaranteed to obtain the Heavenly Blossom Fruit, and it's more efficient than Gu Feng's aimless search for value.
However, this trip isn't without risks.
Facing the Earth Demon Plague, you'll be up against cunning Earth Demons.
Don't underestimate the challenge just because it's snowing.
The cunning of Earth Demons is far beyond that of Greater Demons or Golden Demons.
Additionally, the Yunyang Sect holds a great deal of resentment towards you.
Your performance at the Imperial City Gathering made them suffer a significant loss.
I recently received news that the Yunyang Sect wanted Fu Jianyun and Liu Xingwan to confront you in public.
They wanted to prove that you weren't as capable as rumored.
Fortunately, the Yunyang Sect's higher-ups have no impression of you.
Even if you disguise yourself and change your name, they wouldn't expect you to dare to go to the Yunyang Sect."
Shangxuan Zhenren analyzed the pros and cons and the level of danger for Su Chen.
In the end, the decision was left to Su Chen.
"Regarding this matter, I hope you'll consider the pros and cons for yourself and decide whether to go.
Don't worry about whether the Yunyang Sect can handle the Earth Demon Plague; just consider yourself.
Sometimes, I feel you're too responsible.
You often neglect your own cultivation because of this."
Hearing these words, Su Chen felt very grateful.
As promised, Shangxuan Zhenren provided excellent treatment to his core disciple.
Even with the many demands on the frontlines, Shangxuan Zhenren still allocated ample time and space for Su Chen's cultivation and training.
Su Chen inquired further about the effects of the Heavenly Blossom Fruit and whether it was worth the risk.
Shangxuan Zhenren's response was straightforward—it was worth it.
