Chapter 218 - Zhou Xiuhei, Xiuhei Sovereign (2/2)
”Greetings, young one.” The middle-aged man conversed via soul transmission.
Yan Zaizen could feel an impressive soul energy fluctuation from this. ”Advanced Astral Soul Realm? This guy's cultivation bases are…”
Seeing Yan Zaizen's lack of response, the middle-aged giant only smiled a little more, ”I am the Xiuhei Sovereign, Lord of Xiuhei Earthly Moon, Zhou Xiuhei.”
”This!” This time, Yan Zaizen truly felt shocked in heart and mind. In accordance with Lang Xue words, the three major forces in the Sirius Titan Realm, one of them was the Xiuhei Earthly Moon. An eighth-level heavenly-tier force!
He recovered, his mind filled with questions, ”My name's Yan Zaizen. Wanderer.” As he didn't belong to any specific force, he didn't have any fancy titles or domains, so he was simply a wanderer.
”Perfect. As you know the token, the one which you defended, it belongs to the Xiuhei force.” He stated, but there didn't seem to be any forcefulness or dominance in his voice.
”I see.” Despite that, even if this man wanted the token, Yan Zaizen wasn't going to give it up.
”No worries, the token is officially yours.” Throwing a curveball, he didn't seem to desire the token; instead, he seemed to want something else. ”I'll be direct, young one, I wish to offer you a position as a Guest Elder of the Xiuhei Earthly Moon.”
”What?” Skeptical, Yan Zaizen didn't immediately answer. He was leaning towards refusing, mostly because he didn't wish to accept any commitments. After all, his promise with Tao to travel the world was still in effect. Well, considering this, he may as well make some things clear.
”I still plan to travel the myriad realms.”
”As long as you check in using a transmission relay every ten thousand years, you can travel to anywhere beneath this heaven.” Zhou Xiuhei, the Xiuhei Sovereign, answered smoothly.
”I don't really like restrictions.”
”As long as you don't cripple or kill without justifiable reason, you have no other restriction.”
”I'm quite lazy.”
”There's no mission obligation or requirement to have a personal force. As long as you wish, you can stay independent.”
”...I'm not cheap.”
”The per-millennia stipend for a Guest Elder is one hundred thousand heavenly drops, initiation pay is five hundred thousand heavenly drops.”
”What the-” his first thought was to curse. Wasn't this too great? Holy shit. ”How many Guest Elders do you have?” He couldn't help but ask. No way this was sustainable if they had several thousand as most sects of a grand size.
”One, you'll be our second.”
”...Authority?”
”You'll have all authority of a Lower-tier Elder. The ability to use a realmship for appropriate travels, move a portion of forces of the Xiuhei Earthly Moon, and…”
As he continued to detail the benefits, Yan Zaizen was startled. Was this any different than being an Elder? Why the need for the 'guest'?
Despite this exchange seemingly taking a long time to describe, all of this happened in the time it takes for a breath of time.
”Haaa...with all that, how could I say no? But I do have a question...why me?” If there was only one other Guest Elder, why did this major power personally arrive to give him an offer to join? Any high-ranking member could do so in his place.
”Because you and I travel the same path, the Herculean Path.” His words flowed with a smoothness that left Yan Zaizen processing it for a bit.
”WHAT?!”
