Chapter 166: A Quasi-Saint Realm Expert
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“This is… A Quasi-Saint Realm expert!”
Someone gasped in shock.
However, the golden-haired man did not pay attention to the others. His deep gaze fell on Su Chen and he continued, “Not only that, the Imperial Lord has also given a verbal order. If Young Friend Su Chen does not mind, our Dashang Empire is willing to confer on you the marquis t.i.tle!”
“The Dashang Empire… This is going too far!”
Not far away, the Eldest Prince’s expression was cold, and his eyes were filled with chill.
His eyes were full of undisguised killing intent when he looked at the blonde eunuch.
Had Dashang become so brazen as to openly poach people?
If he were the Dachu Emperor now, he would definitely say without hesitation, “My Dachu Empire is also willing to bestow on him the Marquis t.i.tle!”
Unfortunately…
He was not, he was just a prince!
In fact, he was not even the Crown Prince!
“Marquis of the Dashang Empire…”
Everyone was moved by the eunuch’s words.
It was a pity they understood that with their own strength and value, let alone the position of Marquis, even the position of Earl would not be given to them by the Dashang Empire.
The reason why Su Chen was so highly regarded even after severely injuring Marquis Champion was because he had pa.s.sed the ninth heavenly tribulation.
In terms of potential, he was even above Marquis Champion!
If they were able to recruit such a young prodigy, it would be extremely beneficial to the Dashang Empire.
“That Fahui was already abnormal to begin with. Now that the Dashang Empire is bringing up the past, conferring a marquis t.i.tle and offering a high-grade Dao weapon, could this be a trap?”
A middle-aged man who was watching frowned slightly as he spoke.
The Marquis t.i.tle was still acceptable, but to Dashang, it was just a matter of words.
A high-grade Dao weapon.
This was not simple!
If placed in the Great Mystery Sect or other sects, it would be a sect treasure. Unless the sect was in a life-and-death situation, it would not be easily shown to others.
Yet Dashang was actually willing to take out such a valuable treasure. This was simply inconceivable!
“Whether it’s a trap or not depends on Su Chen’s att.i.tude. If Su Chen is willing to become a marquis of the Dashang Empire, the Dashang Empire will be able to take out even a supreme-grade Dao weapon, let alone a high-grade Dao weapon. This is nothing more than transferring from the left hand to the right hand. But if Su Chen is unwilling, hehe… Of course, the prerequisite is that Su Chen has to go to the imperial city of Dashang. If he doesn’t go, then everything just now is empty talk.”
An elder from a sect spoke knowingly.
He seemed to be able to see through Dashang’s intentions with a single glance.
“If he doesn’t go, there won’t be any high-grade Dao weapons… If he does go, he’ll be gone. This choice really puts one in a dilemma!”
Although the blonde eunuch had presented this choice to Su Chen, at this moment, many people were already feeling conflicted on Su Chen’s behalf.
After all, high-grade Dao weapons were so precious that no one would give them up so easily.
“Didn’t Marquis Champion tell them about his plan? Or could it be that they know all of this and are intentionally inviting me to Dashang?”
Su Chen glanced at the golden-haired eunuch, then looked down at the unconscious Marquis Champion.
In an instant, he had thought a lot.
He definitely had to go to Dashang.
After all, Fahui had previously given him a jade token that recorded the whereabouts of the saint-level body refining cultivation method. It was in the ruins of the Little Thunderclap Temple.
If he didn’t go, he would suffer a huge loss.
Originally, he had planned to secretly disguise himself and head to the ruins of the Little Thunderclap Temple to look for the saint-level body refining cultivation method after dealing with the matters in Qingzhou.
However, the invitation from the blonde eunuch disrupted his plans.
Sneaking in would be much less troublesome.
However, if he was discovered, there would be huge problems.
The Dashang Empire could send experts to hunt him down silently.
Even if he died, no one would know.
However, if he went over openly, it would be different.
At the very least, on the surface, Dashang did not dare to do anything to him.
Moreover, they even have to treat him as a distinguished guest!
If he handled it properly, he could definitely get his hands on a high-grade Dao weapon.
Whether it was a saint-level body refining cultivation method or a high-grade Dao weapon…
He didn’t want to give up either!
“Relying on the system, 1 don’t know when I’ll be able to obtain these two things. It’s completely worth it to take a risk for them. Moreover, with my current strength in the Nirvana Realm, I can protect myself even if 1 encounter a Quasi-Saint Realm expert. As long as I don’t encounter a Saint Realm expert, my life will not be in danger. However, in order to prevent Dashang from being shameless, 1 still have to make some preparations.”
Su Chen quickly calculated in his heart.
Dashang was a very powerful faction.
Although they valued their face and reputation very much, when it came to their lives, they would definitely not easily place it above their bottom line.
What if…
What if the other party was shameless?
What if they detained him the moment he entered the territory of Dashang?
After all, the Dashang Empire had a Saint Realm expert!
No one knew the temperament of that saint.
If he made a move, no one would be able to save Su Chen!
Suddenly, Su Chen recalled a pill in Fahui’s storage ring.
This was what Fahui had given him before he died. It was the last Saint Breaking Pill of their Little Thunderclap Temple.
Fahui had already blocked the abnormal phenomenon of the pill, so it was no different from an ordinary pill. That was why it could appear safely in his storage ring without being discovered by Marquis Champion.
This was also one of the rewards Fahui gave him.
Saint Breaking Pill!
As the name implied, its main purpose was to increase the chances of becoming a Saint!
If an expert at the peak stage of the Quasi-Saint Realm took it, there was a high chance that he would break through to the Saint Realm!
“I hope there is a Supreme Elder in the Great Mystery Sect who is about to become a Saint…”
Su Chen thought to himself.
The Saint Breaking Pill was such a precious item. Su Chen definitely favored giving it to the Great Mystery Sect.
After all, this was his sect.
If something happened to him, only the Great Mystery Sect would stand firmly behind him.
If the Great Mystery Sect had another Saint Realm expert, then the sect could become more famous.
At that time, no matter who it was, as long as they dared to have designs on him, they would more or less have to consider whether they could withstand the wrath of a Saint Realm expert!
Thinking of this…
Su Chen no longer hesitated. He looked at the blonde eunuch and said coldly, “There’s no need for the marquis t.i.tle. Go back and tell the Emperor that I will personally head to the imperial city of Dashang to retrieve what is mine!”
“Oh?”
The golden-haired eunuch had already prepared himself for rejection.
However, he did not expect that Su Chen would actually agree to personally head to the imperial city.
Although the time had not been determined, it should not be too long..
