Chapter 1572

Ye Zhangqing put forward his own conditions; this time, the three Azure Dragon Hall masters did not simply veto, but instead fell into contemplation.

Obviously, they were considering the credibility and value of Ye Zhangqing's words.

However, just as the three Azure Dragon Hall masters were silent, a faint mutter suddenly came from the direction of the courtyard wall.

"I think we can agree to that."

Hmm???

Although the voice was soft, everyone present was someone of great cultivation; even Ye Zhangqing, the lowest among them, possessed Great Emperor cultivation, so naturally they heard it clearly.

The Azure Dragon Hall master glanced over displeasedly, only to see that the top of the wall was already crowded with people.

Each of them stared straight ahead, heads craned toward this spot.

These were all assassins of Yongye; each of the four halls had some, and among them there were even Emperor Sovereign Realm experts.

They had been drawn over by the aroma of the food just served.

Their mouths were already watering from hunger, but they also knew that today's meal was not something they were qualified to eat.

Yet upon hearing Ye Zhangqing's final condition, someone could not help but speak up on the spot.

"You can eat every day, and we can also provide you with Devil Emperor-grade ingredients comparable to a great elixir, helping you break through to Emperor Sovereign."

The speaker was a Great Emperor Perfection assassin who had already prepared to assault the Emperor Sovereign Realm.

Now he was just accumulating points to exchange for a great elixir, which would allow him to begin his breakthrough.

In Yongye, those top-tier precious resources cannot be bought with spirit stones; they must be obtained with points.

Points are Yongye's internal rule; their source is simple: completing tasks.

For each task completed, depending on its difficulty, one earns corresponding points.

This Great Emperor Perfection assassin was from the Azure Dragon Hall; upon hearing this, the Azure Dragon Hall master turned his head, glared at him displeasedly, and said in a cold voice.

"How about I, as hall master, make it for you?"

Hearing this, the person shrank his head; he had just blurted it out casually.

Seeing this, the Azure Dragon Hall master withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Ye Zhangqing.

"Our four halls have a quota of one hundred each, which is too few; we need four hundred, and on a long-term basis. Yongye will arrange different people to take turns."

The Azure Dragon Hall master's meaning is that, from now on, Yongye's assassins will have four hundred people waiting each day at the Dao Yi Shengdi Canteen to eat.

One hall, one hundred slots.

"Furthermore, the quality of our meals cannot be low; at least ten dishes per table for ten people."

The Xuanwu Hall master added beside him.

Upon hearing the Azure Dragon Hall master's two demands, the White Tiger Hall master nodded.

"I have no objections."

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhangqing showed no change in expression; having conditions means there is something to discuss.

Moreover, this condition is not impossible to meet; it merely means I will be a bit more burdened.

Without much hesitation, Ye Zhangqing nodded and agreed.

Seeing this, the three Azure Dragon Hall masters immediately said they would contact the Old Ancestor, and arrange a meeting between Ye Zhangqing and the Old Ancestor at that time.

Thus, the four hall masters of Yongye were all settled.

Afterwards, they drank a while longer; taking advantage of the wine, the Azure Dragon Hall master spoke.

"Meeting the Old Ancestor might still take some time; why not take this opportunity, Ye Xiaoyou, to prepare a meal for us, so that our other Yongye experts can also taste your cooking?"

"No problem."

Ye Zhangqing readily agreed; this request is not excessive, but we certainly cannot let all of Yongye's people come.

Finally, the number was set at one thousand; as for the selection, that would naturally be left to the Azure Dragon Hall master and the others to decide.

Ye Zhangqing only needs to cook; the four hall masters have no objections to that.

The outcome was satisfactory; after seeing off the four hall masters, Ye Zhangqing also breathed a sigh of relief.

Next, as long as we settle the Yongye Old Ancestor, we will be fine.

"The Old Ancestor should pose no problem; he generally does not concern himself with such matters."

Perhaps fearing that Ye Zhangqing might worry about the Old Ancestor, after returning, the Vermilion Bird Hall master also spoke.

Regarding the Old Ancestor, the Vermilion Bird Hall master is also somewhat speechless; such a vast Yongye, yet he insists on not getting involved.

He spends his days idly wandering about.

Therefore, since the four of them have already nodded, the probability of the Old Ancestor refusing is not high.

Ye Zhangqing nodded in response, but he did not let his guard down; before ultimate success, he cannot be overly pleased too early.

After exchanging a few words with the Vermilion Bird Hall master, Ye Zhangqing bade farewell and returned to his room.

First, he used an Emperor-level transmission talisman to inform the Yun Xiantai and others in Haotu Shijie of the progress.

Haotu Shijie, Dao Yi Shengdi—since Ye Zhangqing departed, Yun Xiantai has been constantly worried about him.

Even now, while drinking with the three Dongfang brothers, Yun Xiantai cannot go three sentences without mentioning Ye Zhangqing.

"I don't know how Ye Xiazi is doing over there."

Having received no news for a long time, upon hearing this, Dongfang Hong replied helplessly.

"Yun Ancestor, you've said this many times; we just contacted you yesterday, and today we only met with the four hall masters."

"I know, but even until now there has been no word."

Seeing Yun Xiantai in this state, the three Dongfang brothers were also speechless.

If it weren't for them pulling him along, Yun Xiantai would probably wish to contact Ye Zhangqing dozens of times a day.

But Ye Zhangqing is not in Haotu Shijie now; to contact him, one can only use an Emperor-level transmission talisman.

Contacting him a dozen times a day would mean using a dozen Emperor-level transmission talismans each day.

You think this is Chinese cabbage? The price of an Emperor-level transmission symbol—need I say more? Everyone knows.

Besides, there aren't many Emperor-level transmission symbols even in the entire Dao Yi Shengdi.

Even the Talisman Master Alliance's old ancestor, who has just broken through to Emperor-level Talisman Master, would need time to refine it—this certainly can't be finished in a day or two.

Moreover, among the various materials needed, some aren't even available in Haotu Shijie and can only be obtained through trade with other worlds.

You're squandering it like this—aren't you just a prodigal?

However, Yun Xiantai obviously didn't take Dongfang Hong's words to heart and continued to worry about Ye Zhangqing's situation on her own.

Just then, a golden light tore through space and shot straight into Yun Xiantai's head.

A moment later, Yun Xiantai burst out laughing.

"Good, good, good, it's done—Ye Zhangqing has succeeded."

"What has succeeded?"

"Ye Zhangqing has already successfully persuaded the four hall masters of Yongye; next we just wait for an audience with the Eternal Night Old Ancestor, but there shouldn't be any problem."

In Ye Zhangqing's sound transmission, he briefly explained the situation and then repeated the conditions the other party had offered.

As for these, Yun Xiantai didn't care at all.

Besides, the four Azure Dragon Hall Masters don't really care about various resources, nor did they make exorbitant demands.

The offered price was even lower than what Yun Xiantai had expected.

Moreover, it's largely because of Ye Zhangqing's cooking skills—one could say the four Azure Dragon Hall Masters agreed solely out of regard for him.

Otherwise, even if Dao Yi Shengdi gave them more resources, they might not necessarily value them.

After all, Yongye isn't short of money—it's far wealthier than Dao Yi Shengdi.
