Chapter 462 Jin Yue's Transaction
Ye Changsheng naturally knew what the other party was talking about, which was a more dangerous thing.
Although he didn't know the specific situation, he was afraid that there was something fishy about the only holy leader of the Tianpeng clan being transferred to the Diyuan.
"If I remember correctly, the last holy leader of the Tianpeng clan seemed to have died because of the monster that rushed out of the abyss. If you calculate the time, there are only about two hundred years left!" Ye Changsheng thought to himself.
There must be something wrong with the death of this Saint Lord. No wonder the great elder of the Tianpeng clan looks so unhappy now.
Ye Changsheng roughly understood what the other party was worried about, but he still didn't understand why the other party wanted to talk about it.
Do you expect him to say a few words to that old ancestor Yue Long and let him interfere in this matter?
Ye Changsheng didn't think that his face was big enough to be that great. Even if the old ancestor Yue Long finally agreed to his request, Ye Changsheng would most likely owe the other party a favor, which he didn't want.
He looked at Jin Yue, waiting for the other party's next words.
"If we allow the Holy Lord to go to the Earth Abyss to serve as a guard, it will be a very dangerous thing for our Tianpeng clan. We, the Tianpeng clan, cannot sit idly by and watch this matter!" Jin Yue said.
"What does the Great Elder mean?"
"There are a lot of people guarding the Earth Abyss. In addition to the Saint Masters of each race who need to serve regularly for a period of time, many monks from each race must also be summoned!"
"This time the Holy Lord has been transferred to the Earth Abyss, and our clan plans to send several Void Refinement Level guards to go with him!" Jin Yue said.
Ye Changsheng narrowed his eyes upon hearing this, and asked calmly, "The Great Elder doesn't want me to accompany your Holy Lord to the Earth Abyss to protect him, does he?"
"Fellow Daoist Ye is very smart. This is indeed my plan. You go to the Diyuan Guard to protect the Holy Lord of our clan. I can give you the Cloud Phoenix Bone in my hand!" Jin Yue said with a soft smile.
Ye Changsheng frowned slightly, and after a moment he asked, "I want to know how long your Holy Lord will serve in the Earth Abyss?"
"According to regulations, each Saint Lord must serve for three hundred years at regular intervals, so Fellow Daoist Ye only needs to protect him for three hundred years!" Jin Yue said with a hint of anticipation in her eyes.
In her opinion, three hundred years is nothing at all. Of course, in the eyes of most people in the spiritual world, three hundred years is indeed nothing for a Void Refining cultivator.
But it is impossible for Ye Changsheng to spend three hundred years doing such a thing.
So, he shook his head and flatly rejected Jin Yue's proposal: "This is impossible. I don't have that much time to waste!"
Jin Yue's expression froze when he heard this, and his brows immediately frowned.
In her opinion, this condition was already very generous. It was not so easy to obtain the skeleton of a fusion-level Yun Feng.
She wanted Ye Changsheng to be the guard, partly because Saint Tianpeng told them that Ye Changsheng was extremely powerful.
On the other hand, it is also because of Ye Changsheng’s identity.
He was someone who had met Patriarch Yuelong and was a distinguished guest of the Feiling clan. No one from any branch of the Feiling clan would dare to attack him.
Although , it is against the rules of the Feiling tribe to allow an outsider to join the Diyuan Guard.
If he came out in the open, Ye Changsheng would never be able to join the Diyuan Guard.
However, he happened to have a pair of Sky Peng wings, so if he pretended to be a member of the Sky Peng tribe, almost no one would be able to tell that he was the real person.
In this way, he would have no problem sneaking into the Diyuan guards.
And if at a critical moment, Saint Lord Tianpeng accidentally falls into the trap of the Chirong and other tribes, Ye Changsheng can reveal his identity at the right time, which will make the Chirong and other tribes feel fearful and give up their plans.
In this way, although Ye Changsheng's identity might be exposed, for the sake of ancestor Yue Long, the people of the Feiling clan would not do anything to him and would most likely turn a blind eye and let it go.
The fact that the Tianpeng Clan concealed Ye Changsheng's identity and helped him join the Diyuan Guard could be a big deal or a small one, considering whether the ancestor Yue Long and the co-elders would make a big deal out of it.
Then the Tianpeng clan would at most receive a minor punishment.
But this punishment is nothing compared to the safety of the Holy Lord.
Let Ye Changsheng protect the Holy Lord Tianpeng. With his identity, he can indeed save the Holy Lord Tianpeng's life at the critical moment.
This thought came to Jin Yue's mind when he heard Saint Lord Tianpeng talking about Ye Changsheng a few days ago.
At that time, she decided to meet with this human monk, but she had not yet figured out what to use to impress this human monk.
So she asked someone to investigate what Ye Changsheng had done during the time he had been in the Tianpeng clan.
When Jin Yue learned that the other party was looking to purchase the skeleton of a combined-grade phoenix bird, he immediately knew that the opportunity had come and quickly arranged a meeting with Ye Changsheng.
And now, such a deal is proposed.
But she didn't expect that Ye Changsheng was not willing to do the three hundred years of guarding. If he really had to stay here for three hundred years, he was afraid that he would not be able to catch up with the opening of Guanghan Realm.
Thunder Continent and Guanghan Realm are places that Ye Changsheng must find a way to visit, as the various opportunities there are truly too important.
In the Demon Gold Mountains outside Yuncheng there are the Golden Palace Jade Book, the Xuantian Fragments and the Qilin Origin.
In the Guanghan Realm, there are elixirs from the immortal world, the Taimiao Xuling Pills which are crucial for advancing to the Mahayana stage, the Taiyi Qingshan Pills needed to refine the Yuanhe Wuji Mountain, and so on.
Any one of these things is a priceless treasure. Now that they are piled together, how could Ye Changsheng let them go easily?
Therefore, he would not waste too much time with the Feiling tribe.
Jin Yue was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "Since Fellow Daoist Ye does not want to accept this proposal, then can you please listen to my other proposal?"
"Senior, please speak!"
Jin Yue's brows were filled with a solemn expression as he said, "The best way to save our Tianpeng tribe from this predicament is to allow our tribe's Saint Master to advance to the fusion stage!"
"But given his current situation, if there is no extra opportunity, it may take thousands of years before he has the chance to advance!"
"But Fellow Daoist Ye should have known something about the general situation of our Tianpeng Clan. We don't have that much time to wait, so we must look for additional opportunities!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Changsheng looked thoughtful and asked, "What is this extra opportunity?"
"This extra opportunity is also related to the Earth Abyss!" When Jin Yue said this, the expression between his brows became more solemn.
"I told Fellow Daoist Ye before that there are some spiritual medicines growing in the Earth Abyss that are vital to our Feiling Clan. Among them is a kind of Yinye Fruit that can help our Tianpeng Clan's peak spiritual commanders advance to the fusion stage!"
Hearing this, Ye Changsheng understood what the other party meant and asked, "So, Senior, do you want me to go into the Earth Abyss to help your Tianpeng clan's Saint Lord get the Yin Sin Fruit?"
"Yes, this is the second way out I have thought of for the Tianpeng clan!" Jin Yue said.
Ye Changsheng frowned and said, "Why don't you Tianpeng people go to the Abyss? With your strength, it shouldn't be a problem to enter the seventh layer of the Abyss and take out the Yin Nie Fruit, right?"
"Fellow Daoist Ye, you don't know that if someone like me enters the Abyss of the Earth, it will easily attract the attention of those demon kings. If we are besieged by them, even I may not be able to escape safely!" Jin Yue shook his head and said.
"Of course, more importantly, we of the Feiling Clan have such a tradition that all the combined cultivators of the various clans are not allowed to enter the Earth Abyss without permission, so the combined elders of the Tianpeng Clan, including me, are not allowed to enter casually!"
Upon hearing Jin Yue's words, Ye Changsheng frowned slightly.
It seems that this is another secret of the Feiling tribe.
But then again, if there weren't this restriction, the demon kings in the abyss would have died long ago.
"On which layer of the Abyss is the Yin Nie Fruit?" Ye Changsheng asked after a little thought.
"The seventh floor!" Jin Yue looked at him deeply and said.
Ye Changsheng's expression changed immediately, and he said coldly: "Senior, are you kidding me? I don't know how many powerful monsters gather in the seventh layer of the Earth Abyss. Do you want me to go to such a dangerous place?"
"If the Yin Nie Fruit was so easy to obtain, we of the Tianpeng clan wouldn't have to look for Fellow Daoist Ye. We would have obtained it ourselves long ago!" Jin Yue said expressionlessly.
"There are fusion-level demon kings in the abyss, and the seventh layer is full of dangers. For a cultivator at the virtual refining level like me, running in there is tantamount to seeking death!" Ye Changsheng shook his head repeatedly.
"Haha, Fellow Daoist Ye is probably a little too modest. I heard from my clan's Saint Lord that even he might not be your opponent. Then how many people in the Abyss can pose a threat to you?"
"Moreover, Fellow Daoist Ye's Sky Peng Wings are ranked quite high on the Chaos Ten Thousand Spirits List. With such a strong wind-attribute power, it should not be difficult for him to escape from the hands of a combined cultivator just by relying on his speed, right?" Jin Yue asked with his eyes slightly narrowed.
"Haha, it seems that the Great Elder has already found out all the information about me. My Sky Peng Wings are indeed very fast, but even so, I can't easily take the risk of going into the Abyss!" Ye Changsheng shook his head repeatedly.
"If Fellow Daoist Ye thinks this way, then our clan would never give you the skeleton of Yun Feng!" Jin Yue shook his head and said.
"Are you threatening me, Great Elder? If the Tianpeng tribe refuses to sell me the Yunfeng skeleton, then I can go look for other branches. I don't believe that among the 72 branches of the Feiling tribe, only your Tianpeng tribe has this kind of thing!" Ye Changsheng said with a sneer.
Perhaps if it were any other tribe, even a large tribe like the Mayflies, he might not be able to find a suitable skeleton of a phoenix.
But in the Feiling clan, Ye Changsheng was sure that there must be a lot of skeletons of phoenix birds. Among the 72 branches of the Feiling clan, several branches were descendants of the Heavenly Phoenix like the Black Phoenix clan.
They must have a lot of combined skeletons in their hands, it’s just that trading with them is more troublesome than trading with the Tianpeng tribe.
