Chapter 2576: I Want Two Heavenly Pool Slots

I can talk too.

Seeing this Heavenly Spirit Tribe youth with a face full of regret and unwillingness, Ye Zhangqing asked doubtfully, 'What are we talking about?'

Upon hearing that, the Heavenly Spirit Tribe youth said weakly.

'Talking about cooperation, whatever Yu Heng Shen can give the young master, I can also agree to.'

'Oh, you also have two Heavenly Pool slots?'

Hearing this, Ye Zhangqing instantly became interested; two Heavenly Pool slots were clearly not enough.

After all, there's still Second Senior Sister, Fourth Senior Sister, and maybe later Qi Xiong, Hong Zun, Lin Potian and the other Peak Masters.

As for the Heavenly Pool slots, the more the better; even if no one is there, occupying two spots beforehand does no harm.

But upon hearing Ye Zhangqing's words, the Heavenly Spirit Tribe youth instantly wilted.

'Two Heavenly Pool slots?' Sorry, he really doesn't have any.

Originally, given his status, just like Yu Heng Shen, everyone is a youth of the tribe, so it could be contested.

But now, Yu Heng Shen clearly got there first; each opening of the Heavenly Pool only has so few slots.

Now Yu Heng Shen has directly taken two of them; he surely has no chance.

Seeing his silence, Ye Zhangqing also guessed the outcome; although he didn't say it, he felt somewhat speechless inside.

'You have no slots; what do you want to talk about with me?'

'If there's none, then there's nothing we can do.'

After saying that, Ye Zhangqing turned and left.

Watching Ye Zhangqing's back, the Heavenly Spirit Tribe youth's eyes flickered; from initial regret to gradual determination, as if making a decision, he turned and strode away.

Returning home, the Heavenly Spirit Tribe youth immediately sought out his grandfather.

'Grandfather.'

'Oh, you're back.'

The grandfather of this Heavenly Spirit Tribe youth is an elder of the Heavenly Spirit Tribe; their family is absolutely top-tier within the tribe.

In terms of lineage, he surpasses Yu Heng Shen by a notch, which is why he's unwilling.

Since childhood he has been favored by his grandfather; seeing this, the youth also bowed and said with a smile.

'Grandson pays his respects to grandfather.'

'Haha, come come come, come let grandfather take a look.'

The old man truly liked this grandson, had him come forward, and asked about his recent outing.

It was obvious that this time he went to the fairy crystal mine, concealing it from his family; no one knew.

After giving a casual reply, the youth went straight to the point.

'Grandfather, the Heavenly Pool is about to open, right?'

'Hmm, there's still half a month, but Yu Heng Shen took two slots, and we agreed, after all that fairy crystal mine is indeed important.'

Having said that, the old man paused a moment, then turned to look at his grandson and couldn't help sighing.

'Alas, Yu Heng Shen has indeed rendered great service this time; many think highly of him, while you... are in a precarious position.'

Not mentioning it would be fine, but as soon as the topic came up, the youth felt his teeth itch with anger.

'What precarious position? His great service is just a blind cat finding a dead rat—pure dumb luck.'

The more he thought, the angrier he got, but right now there isn't a lack of opportunity.

It's clear Ye Zhangqing values the Heavenly Pool slots; if he also had some, perhaps they could discuss cooperation with Ye Zhangqing and likewise achieve great service.

So, that's why he came.

Thinking this, the youth couldn't wait and quickly spoke up.

'Grandfather, Yu Heng Shen earned his great service thanks to those two Heavenly Pool slots; give me two as well, and I too can achieve great service.'

'Huh???'

Upon hearing that, the old man stared blankly at his grandson, then soon shook his head helplessly.

'I wanted to give you, but now there are none left; all slots have already been allocated.'

'Grandfather, you……………………'

'Stop, I cannot do such a thing.'

Even without the grandson speaking, the old man shook his head and refused.

The slots are already set; how could they be changed, let alone have him go seize them by force—impossible.

Even if his beloved grandson pleaded, he would not do such a thing.

This matter is not to be discussed.

Moreover, even if he wanted to, he couldn't; the other old fogies wouldn't agree either.

Seeing this, the youth was momentarily at a loss for words; 'Why? That merit should be mine.'

But as he thought, he suddenly realized that Ye Zhangqing's Heavenly Pool slots seemed not meant for his own use.

But rather for his senior brothers and sisters.

He had heard a few words before: others aren't currently in Beyond the Heavens, let Third Senior Brother and them go first; later he will figure out how to get Second Senior Sister and the others there too.

Upon thinking this, the youth suddenly had an idea, looked up at his grandfather and smiled.

'Grandfather, since there are none this time, could you give me two slots for the next opening? I guarantee I'll achieve great service.'

'Huh???'

'What do you want the Heavenly Pool slots for?'

The Heavenly Pool isn't open at any time, and each opening is spaced not short.

This Heavenly Pool hasn't opened yet, and you're already booking slots for the next one—what kind of maneuver is this?

As for this spirit child, facing the old man's inquiry, he gave an ambiguous reply.

I want to achieve merit, Grandfather, rest assured; as long as you give me two Heavenly Pool slots, I will definitely achieve great merit.

Seeing his grandson's confident demeanor, the old man was somewhat baffled.

Just giving two Heavenly Pool slots and you can achieve great merit? What kind of operation is this?

This Heavenly Pool has existed for quite a while in their Heavenly Spirit Tribe, always serving as their holy land.

But never before have they heard the claim that having Heavenly Pool slots can bring great merit.

Although these Heavenly Pool slots are precious, after all they are not some heavenly treasure or earthly gem; you can't even carry them away—what great merit could they possibly earn?

What do you want to do?

Grandfather, just rest assured; help me obtain two Heavenly Pool slots and that'll be enough.

Not having been explicitly stated, after all the matter hasn't been finally decided, this spirit child also doesn't dare to speak recklessly.

He can only temporarily keep it a secret.

Unaware that this spirit child had gone to request Heavenly Pool slots for himself, upon returning to his lodgings, Ye Zhangqing let Xu Jie and Zhao Zhengping rest first.

Anyway, opening the Heavenly Pool still requires half a month.

Yu Hengxin, however, was sincere, even telling me the time of this Heavenly Pool's opening.

Xu Jie and Zhao Zhengping were naturally not in a hurry; with Ye Zhangqing there, they stayed where they were.

It was also a rare chance to rest for a while, so they could properly wander around the Heavenly Spirit Tribe.

They didn't worry about any danger, after all Huang Lao was present.

Besides Huang Lao, there were also the remaining strong ones from the Heavenly Family and the Wushen Palace.

Originally, they were supposed to return first to the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens; having Huang Lao accompany them would have been enough.

But everyone insisted that Beyond the Heavens was unsafe, that Huang Lao alone might not be able to cope, so everyone ended up following along the whole way.

When they previously arrived at the Heavenly Spirit Tribe, seeing so many people genuinely frightened the Heavenly Spirit Tribe.

Those who didn't know even thought the Human Race had come to exterminate the tribe, wondering why there were so many of them.
