Chapter 2280: Bountiful Harvest
"Can you provide more?"
"Whatever amount, I want it all!"
Ye Liuyun said.
"That's possible, but I can't determine how much will follow, so I can only give you a little at a time."
"Also, I must warn you that after taking this once, its effect drops significantly on subsequent uses."
"Otherwise we would have already broken through the Divine Realm!"
Chen Xingnan smiled.
"I see!"
Ye Liuyun then realized that taking this repeatedly yields no effect.
But he has many subordinates, so even tens of thousands of drops would be usable.
After that, both sides began to negotiate the price.
Ye Liuyun doesn't need Crystal Stone; instead he wants to exchange for resources such as Cui Yuan Liquid, Storage Yuan Stone, and Exchange Yuan Stone.
Because the required amount of resources is huge, Ye Liuyun has decided he must use the Teleportation Black Tower to return to the Divine Realm.
Although he brought many resources, there are almost none suitable for the First to Sixth Layers of the Divine Realm, and few for the Seventh and Eighth Layers; most of the resources are prepared for the great army.
After agreeing on the price, they set the delivery time for one month later.
"Did you carry that many resources with you?"
Chen Xingnan was somewhat skeptical.
"No.
But I can retrieve them via the Teleportation Array!"
Ye Liuyun explained.
"You have a Teleportation Array?"
"Then do I have a chance to go over there and see?"
Chen Xingnan asked again.
"If you can completely entrust your life to me, you may come back with me.
Otherwise, unless your dynasty agrees to build a large Teleportation Array for public use, it won't work."
Ye Liuyun also knew that their relationship was merely a business partnership, never reaching that level of trust.
Hence he proposed this solution.
"Can't we set up a Teleportation Array just between us?"
Chen Xingnan clearly didn't want outsiders meddling in their deal.
Ye Liuyun smiled, "What's the need for that?
Building a Teleportation Array consumes a lot of the Formation Master's energy and wastes resources.
If you're uneasy, just send someone with me to check."
Chen Xingnan thought for a moment, then directly ordered the Administrator beside him, "Administrator Chen, you and Young Master Ye, go back and see the situation over there."
"Yes!"
Administrator Chen clearly didn't want to go, but he dared not defy the order, so he could only agree.
Chen Xingnan immediately told Ye Liuyun that he would give him a drop of Cui Yuan Liquid as compensation for taking Administrator Chen back.
Ye Liuyun naturally agreed.
Their business was basically concluded.
But Chen Xingnan had no intention of ending it.
He continued asking Ye Liuyun, "Your shape‑changing technique..."
Ye Liuyun immediately cut him off, "Don't even think about that secret art.
It was passed to me by someone else and sealed with a restriction; I can't pass it on."
Hearing this, Chen Xingnan could only regretfully give up.
Then he asked Ye Liuyun, "As the representative of your world's Alliance, have you heard of any items the Xingqiu Envoy ever gave you?"
Ye Liuyun, upon hearing this, felt that he seemed to know some information.
So he didn't conceal anything and asked directly, "Do you mean a rescue talisman and a Grand Hall‑shaped treasure?"
"So those things actually exist?"
"What's stored inside that Grand Hall?"
Chen Xingnan asked, slightly excited.
Ye Liuyun explained, "There are many genius earth treasures, weapons, pills, and artifacts.
Here, Martial Cultivators can use Foreign Tribe Yuan Pills to exchange for the resources inside that Grand Hall.
However, to exchange for those resources, Martial Cultivators need many Foreign Tribe Yuan Pills.
Exchanging ordinary resources requires far fewer."
"You've made those resources public over there?"
"You really are generous!"
Chen Xingnan didn't expect that someone obtaining such items could still let others exchange them.
"There's no choice! Without sufficient benefit, you can't mobilize Martial Cultivators to resist the Foreign Tribe!"
Ye Liuyun said.
Chen Xingnan nodded, pondered for a moment, then solemnly asked Ye Liuyun, "Can you fully command your great army?
Is it possible to use your forces to help us seize that Grand Hall from the Zhong Yuan Dynasty?"
Ye Liuyun also didn't expect that he would make such a request.
However, he had this idea, which for Ye Liuyun was actually a good thing.
However, Chen Xingnan seemed to be merely testing the possibility and had not made sufficient preparations for this proposal.
After thinking for a while, he said to Chen Xingnan: "I can command the army as I wish; you can rest assured on that, and I can even mobilize more troops."
The problem is, after helping you, what benefit will my army get?
Moreover, are you sure that the Grand Hall is in the hands of the Zhong Yuan Dynasty?
I only know that the Xingqiu envoy gave us a distress talisman and a Grand Hall for storing treasures, and I don't know what they gave you.
Are you sure it's the Grand Hall?
If it really is the Grand Hall, then the Zhong Yuan Dynasty could borrow the treasures inside to cultivate a strong army; do you know their true strength?
Even if I help you seize that Grand Hall, can you hold onto it?
Will your Xing Jin Dynasty and another dynasty not compete with you for it?
The series of questions raised by Ye Liuyun obviously left Chen Xingnan somewhat bewildered.
"I will consider this matter after I go back.
However, I can confirm that the items left by the Xingqiu envoy are indeed in the hands of the Zhong Yuan Dynasty.
As for whether it is a Grand Hall for storing treasures, and whether they have secretly cultivated experts, I really need to investigate further.
Once I have confirmed it, I will discuss this matter with you.
"Sure!"
Ye Liuyun also dealt with it.
Being able to learn this information actually already satisfied him.
At least he knows who holds the distress talisman and the treasures, which gives him a focus for future strategies against the three dynasties.
Therefore, his trip to the chamber of commerce for negotiations was truly fruitful.
Before leaving, he also exchanged the previously agreed-upon supplies with Administrator Chen, left contact details for the Transmission Talisman with Chen Xingnan, and set up a Formation Plate to facilitate the two of them transmitting supplies.
In the future, their large-scale transactions can be conducted directly via the Transmission Talisman and Formation Plate, so Ye Liuyun will no longer need to risk going to the chamber of commerce.
Chen Xingnan had also long noticed that someone was keeping watch outside the chamber of commerce.
He also took Administrator Chen into the Space World and brought him away directly, so that when he returns to the Divine Realm he won't have to make another trip to find him.
Afterwards, his clone directly put on the Invisibility Cloak, left the chamber of commerce, returned to the camp, and avoided provoking those watching soldiers.
He originally wanted to deal with those soldiers, but since he had already gained quite a bit today, he didn't want to cause further complications.
After returning to the garrison, Ye Liuyun had his clone hand over the exchanged resources to Tong Xin and Qiong Qi.
He then went to find Leader Man Feng and others, proposing that they could first cooperate with a dynasty.
