Chapter 1852: Trade? The Black Water True Dragon Classic

Ao Hei stared intently at Chen Chuyang, his eyes full of teasing, a touch of emotion, and a hint of joy.

She reached out, her hand like white jade tightly gripping Chen Chuyang's hand; at this moment, Ao Hei knew her fate was tightly intertwined with this person before her, their future might change, or perhaps become the same—who knows?

"Chen Chuyang, please look after me from now on."

"Princess Ao Hei, don't worry, you've chosen to stay by my side, I naturally won't let you be bullied," Chen Chuyang said confidently.

His people, no matter who, are not allowed to be bullied.

Xiao Li Yu watched this scene, wanting to speak but holding back; several times she tried to say something but couldn't, looking at their tightly clasped hands, she stepped forward and said: "Master, you……"

Heishanyang shook his head; at this point there's nothing more to say, Chen Chuyang has already decided, no one can change it; as for them, they'd better not do such a foolish thing—whatever lets this kid take a risk and make this decision must surely have benefits outweighing the risks.

Chen Chuyang is a very rational person; he wouldn't lightly do such a thing.

Ao Hei let go of her hand, then fell to the ground; Xiao Li Yu followed suit and fell down as well; the two women locked eyes, Ao Hei's gaze brimming with a smile—the smug satisfaction of a victor: the more you don't want me to follow you, the more I insist on following, just to make you uncomfortable.

The more you suffer, the happier I am.

Xiao Li Yu was furious, but she couldn't show it, forcing out a faint smile: "Ao Hei, you've succeeded, but don't get too happy too soon—this matter isn't over; do you think getting past me means everything's fine?"

"What's coming is the real danger; just wait, you'll soon regret it."

This stage means nothing to her; Ao Hei doesn't care about her feelings, and Xiao Li Yu isn't in a hurry either—the real show is later; she believes that once Shang Hongxue and the others find out, they'll definitely find a way to drive Ao Hei away, someone like Ao Hei is too dangerous, always bringing danger to them.

Such a dangerous person cannot be kept nearby; even if she follows them back, she'll be driven away from Longshe Shan; Xiao Li Yu awaits that scene—she's not exaggerating or threatening Ao Hei, it's simply fact.

The mistress of Longshe Shan is Shang Hongxue; without her approval, Ao Hei cannot stay on Longshe Shan and will instead be constantly targeted; although Shang Hongxue is very kind, she won't let danger reach her children and kin—this is her bottom line; for other matters she can concede, compromise, or be indifferent, but not this one.

Remember, what Shang Hongxue cares about most is the master; she least wants anything to happen to the master.

"I'm waiting, Ao Li." Ao Hei gazed at Xiao Li Yu with a squinting smile, utterly unafraid and unfazed by threats.

What she has decided will not be changed, nor will she easily give up.

No matter how dangerous the road ahead or how great the pressure, she isn't afraid—could it possibly be greater than the pressure from the Kunpeng Guardian? As long as it's not a life-or-death pressure, she doesn't care.

"Hmph, Ao Hei, I hope you'll still be able to laugh when the time comes." Xiao Li Yu tossed off that remark, then returned to behind Chen Chuyang.

Heishanyang looked back and forth at the two women; the two of them together made a lively scene—this kid Chen Chuyang truly has good fortune with women; if he could later win over Ao Hei, it would be even more perfect.

In his view, anyone Chen Chuyang takes a fancy to can soon be won over; Ao Hei is already as good as his.

This much is certain—this kid Chen Chuyang is indeed very capable and outstanding.

The issue of Ao Hei's whereabouts is temporarily settled; next comes the more important matter—AO Zhong's promised thing, this transaction also reaching its final step; Chen Chuyang reached out to Ao Hei and said: "Ao Hei, since you've chosen to follow me, shouldn't you give me the compensation?"

"Ao Zhong promised me the Black Water True Dragon Clan's technique, the 《Black Water True Dragon Classic》; his dragon pearl doesn't contain this technique, so I'm asking you—you should have it on you, right?"

Having saved Ao Hei and settled her destination, I can protect her; so shouldn't Ao Hei show some sincerity? It wouldn't do to reach this point and not give compensation—Chen Chuyang isn't someone you can easily fool.

Xiao Li Yu knew this would happen; although the master might… go soft, become merciful, his principles won't change—what should be, will be; he won't soften just because Ao Hei suffers a tragic misfortune.

"I have the technique here; I can give it to you." Ao Hei said lightly: "But I must declare one thing—our clan's technique can only be cultivated by the Black Water True Dragon Clan; a human like you cannot cultivate it, so even if you obtain the 《Black Water True Dragon Classic》, you might not be able to…… cultivate it."

"That's my business; just give it to me." Chen Chuyang urged.

"Here you go." Ao Hei reached out, touched Chen Chuyang's forehead, and directly imparted the technique.

One 《Black Water True Dragon Classic》 was transmitted to him; Chen Chuyang accepted it fully, holding the complete Black Water True Dragon Classic in hand; after a brief look, he imprinted it in his mind, and at the same time gave a copy to Qinglong Daoren for him to study.

After all, Qinglong Daoren is of the Azure Dragon Clan and also has true dragon bloodline; from the 《Black Water True Dragon Classic》 he can gain deeper insight into divine abilities, and compare them with his own abilities and bloodline; if he can merge his own technique, he can accomplish the advancement of the technique.

"The technique is genuine, the transaction is complete." Having obtained the technique and verified its authenticity, Chen Chuyang felt relieved.

Ao Hei still has reputation; he isn't at all afraid the other side will renege on the debt—his credit is such that no one dares to default or deceive him.

"These are the resources my elder brother promised you; I'm giving them all to you."

Ao Hei produced a storage bracelet and handed it to Chen Chuyang; its contents were the resources previously promised, all given to Chen Chuyang—since she had little use for many of them, keeping them would be wasteful.

Better to give them to Chen Chuyang in exchange for his trust.

This is also Ao Hei's sincerity; she clearly understands that to gain protection she must pay some price and give compensation; otherwise, on what grounds would others protect her, on what grounds take her in?

"Excellent, Ao Hei, your awareness is very high—I admire you." Chen Chuyang put them away; whatever ended up in his hands was his.

This woman is smart and sensible; only someone like her can survive to the end.

Not like those who understand nothing, appearing generous on the surface but actually scheming everywhere.

"From now on, I'll trouble you, Chen Chuyang Daoist friend." Ao Hei smiled and reached out, asking him to look after her more in the future.

"We help each other, Princess Ao Hei." Chen Chuyang reached out; the two clasped hands.
