Chapter 1618 - Zhang Ruochen’s Terms (1/2)
Zhang Ruochen stood across from Luo Xu, as they were equals. They were both the representatives of their respective fields.
Zhang Ruochen was grateful and respectful of Luo Xu.
After all, Luo Xu had helped him more than once, and he’d even taught him his secret technique, ‘Luo Water Fist Technique,’ because of which Zhang Ruochen was able to balance the masculine Qi in his body coming from Dragon and Elephant Prajna Palm.
Dragon and Elephant Prajna Palm and Luo Water Fist Technique represented masculinity and femininity, both of which were profound.
Luo Xu was smiling. “I know you have a lot to do after taking down the Yin and Yang Palace, so I won’t beat around the bush. I reckon you know why the monks from Kunlun’s Field helped you annihilate the Yin and Yang Palace.”
Zhang Ruochen said, “Kunlun’s Field wants to team up with me?”
Luo Xu nodded and said, “Both Kunlun’s Field and Guanghan Field are small fields in Truth Heavenly Domain. We can only take our dojos back after teaming up.”
Zhang Ruochen was close with Luo Xu, but this wasn’t an issue between the two of them, but between Guanghan Field and Kunlun’s Field.
Zhang Ruochen couldn’t agree, as there were too many parties involved, and he needed to name his requirements.
Zhang Ruochen said, “Guanghan Field has twenty-one dojos in Truth Heavenly Domain, and Moon G.o.ddess’s dojo is the most difficult one to take back, but I just did that. Do you really think I need Kunlun’s Field’s power to take back the rest of the nineteen dojos?”
Luo Xu said, “You know that you took back Moon G.o.ddess’s dojo because the Yin and Yang Palace has too many enemies, not because of your invincibility or Kunln’s Field’s help.
“I bet Moon G.o.ddess has told you that Guanghan Field and Kunlun’s Field have a mutual enemy. That enemy has been trying to stop Guanghan Field and Kunlun’s Field, and that enemy made Kunlun’s Field fall and Guanghan Field enslaved and suppressed. There’re representatives from that power in Truth Heavenly Domain, coming at both you and me. Do you really think you can defeat that enemy by yourself?”
After the fight in Moon G.o.ddess’s dojo, Zhang Ruochen realized more than ever that Shang Ziyan had tremendous power, and he wasn’t able to fight back against him.
Zhang Ruochen thought for a bit and said, “It’s not impossible to team up.”
Luo Xu’s eyes gleamed. “You agree?”
Zhang Ruochen said, “If you want me to help take back Kunlun’s Field’s dojos, you need to agree to my terms first.”
Luo Xu was already prepared. He said, “What terms?”
“Firstly, I’ll get half the treasures and saint stones in the dojo. If you agree to the first term, we’ll talk about the second one,” said Zhang Ruochen.
Luo Xu looked solemn.
Obviously, Zhang Ruochen’s first term put him in a very awkward position.
Luo Xu used his mind power to communicate with the monks from Kunlun’s Field.
After a short while, the monks from Kunlun’s Field were all irritated.
Sky-Swallowing Demonic Dragon sneered. “Zhang Ruochen, how dare you have such outrageous terms. Do you really think we have to team up with you? We might be strong enough to take back Kunlun’s Field’s dojos.”
“Let’s go.” The Royal Prince of the Kun looked hostile.
Li Xian, the leader of the savage beasts, frowned, as she thought Zhang Ruochen’s terms were preposterous. “Please open the formation and let us go.”
Zhang Ruochen didn’t try to stop them. He escorted them out while saying, “Kunlun’s Field indeed helped a lot with taking back Moon G.o.ddess’s dojo. If Kunlun’s Field wants to take one of your dojos back, just tell me. I’ll help you, but I will only help you once.”
Before exiting the formation, Zhang Ruochen recalled something. He took out a pot of Dragon Spirits Mad Oxen Wine and gave it to Luo Xu. “This is incredible wine. It’s priceless.”
Luo Xu was dazed at first, then he smiled and said, “I have something good to give you.”
Luo Xu took out a fist record and gave it to Zhang Ruochen.
“What is this?” asked Zhang Ruochen.
Luo Xu said, “This is my perception of the tenth level of Luo Water Fist Technique. I’m studying the eleventh level of the technique, but I’m not able to finish it yet.”
The ninth level of Luo Water Fist Technique was a saint spell.
And the tenth level of Luo Water Fist Technique was a mid-cla.s.s saint spell.
Practicing Luo Water Fist Technique could help Zhang Ruochen control the masculine Qi inside his body, so he accepted it without any further questions.
Luo Xu was much better at fist techniques than Zhang Ruochen, so Zhang Ruochen needed to learn from Luo Xu.
Besides, a mid-cla.s.s saint spell was very valuable, especially expert mid-cla.s.s saint spells and master saint spells. They were so rare that n.o.body would be willing to pa.s.s them to others.
Luo Xu gave Zhang Ruochen a mid-cla.s.s saint spell without hesitation, and Zhang Ruochen gave him some priceless Dragon Spirits Mad Oxen Wine without hesitation.
It was because of their friends.h.i.+p. It had nothing to do with benefits.
Luo Xu knew that Zhang Ruochen needed Luo Water Fist Technique, and Zhang Ruochen knew Luo Xu needed Dragon Spirits Mad Oxen Wine.
After escorting everyone from Kunlun’s Field, Zhang Ruochen headed back to the Moon G.o.ddess’s dojo, looking at the female monks standing in the ruins.
Those monks were all terrified of Zhang Ruochen.
“My lord.”
All the female monks kneeled before Zhang Ruochen.
They were different from the women trapped in Bliss Dungeon. They’d been trained to be the tools for the Yin and Yang Palace to earn saint stones, and they’d lost their willpower.
They were both excited and nervous seeing Zhang Ruochen take down the Yin and Yang Palace. They weren’t sure how this new master would treat them.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t even bother to think about it. He looked to Ling Feiyu and said, “Deal with them, won’t you?”
