Do you have His Majesty’s decree?” the vault eunuch asked cautiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Yang Qianzheng’s Purple Mansion beast was the Jade Spirit Treasure Dragon—and he was still alive. Chu Danqing taking it might be taboo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Send someone to request it. I won’t go myself,” Chu Danqing said, copying the scroll’s knowledge, then added: “Then bring me every beast scroll in the vault—I’ll copy them all.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d only just realized these were all knowledge tied to summoning, limited to specific species, but learning them couldn’t hurt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The vault eunuch was speechless: what did he mean, “send someone to request it”?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was the Emperor—the man who could end his life with a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Chu Danqing was someone he couldn’t offend, so he replied: “Yes, I’ll arrange it immediately.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d have to personally petition the Emperor; as for Chu Danqing copying the scrolls, he could delegate that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, the vault eunuch returned and respectfully handed Chu Danqing the Jade Spirit Treasure Dragon scroll.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Qianzheng didn’t care about such a small thing—what was one beast scroll? The knowledge inside wasn’t consumed upon use.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Give it to Chu Danqing; he could always copy another and return it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he did not make things difficult for the Treasury Eunuch, for he had experienced many times the practice of respecting the dignity of the honored.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he became Emperor Anyong, no second Jade Spirit Dragon had been born.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the past, Yang Qianyuan had still valued such things, but after enduring trials and with his lifespan dwindling, he now regarded them with great detachment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The number seems quite small,” Chu Danqing said, organizing the Spirit Beast Atlas, and asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My lord, any atlas admitted into the Imperial Treasury contains non-ordinary spirit beasts. If you wish for lower-grade spirit beast atlases, I can take you there,” the Treasury Eunuch hurriedly said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was not a genuine offer to take Chu Danqing anywhere—it was merely an explanation that inferior items could not enter the Treasury, hence the low count.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Danqing understood and declined: “No need.
