"A divine bloodstone adorned with demonic runes!"
Jiang Yuan's heart was filled with shock. Ever since he saw the Demon God's Blood, he had developed a unique interest in the Divine Blood Stone, especially the Divine Blood Stone with demonic patterns.
"If you are willing, our Northern City Alliance will exchange this Divine Bloodstone for the Fountain of Life with you!" Shangguan Ya said confidently.
However, her confidence was met with a sneer from Jiang Yuan, who said calmly, "Alliance Leader Shangguan, you probably don't understand the value of the Fountain of Life!"
Shangguan Ya remained silent. To be honest, all she knew was that the Fountain of Life had remarkable effects, even healing her grandfather's hidden injuries. That was why she had come to Jiang Yuan for help.
"The Fountain of Life is a legendary treasure of the Supreme God Realm. Let alone a ton, even a kilogram of it is priceless!" Jiang Yuan's smile remained unchanged as he continued, "As for the Divine Blood Stone with demonic patterns you mentioned, I'm only interested in it, but frankly, it can't compare to the Fountain of Life in terms of value!"
Shangguan Ya's expression turned cold. After thinking for a while, she said, "Then tell me, what do you want in exchange?"
"No, no, no, it's not about what I want, it's about how much you're willing to exchange!" Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "We're so familiar with each other, let's not beat around the bush. One hundred kilograms, that's all the Spring of Life I can offer. As for the price you quote, you can estimate it yourself!"
Although there is no precise price for the Fountain of Life, he still needs to see the maximum price offered by the Northern Alliance.
"One hundred isn't enough, I need at least three hundred kilograms!" Shangguan Ya shook her head.
"You're treating your grandfather, aren't you?"
As soon as Jiang Yuan finished speaking, Shangguan Ya's aura turned sharp.
"Don't get excited. I've met your grandfather, and for some reason, I've also discovered the hidden ailment in his body. But believe me, it's not something that the Fountain of Life alone can cure! The Fountain of Life can only sustain life, not fundamentally solve his problem!" Jiang Yuan said with complete confidence.
"You know?" Shangguan Ya's eyes shifted, showing surprise mixed with suspicion.
"The descendants of the gods!"
Jiang Yuan silently transmitted his voice to Shangguan Ya's ear, but it was because of these four words that Shangguan Ya could no longer remain calm.
"You can choose to trust me, or you can choose to leave!" Jiang Yuan said confidently.
"Alright, I believe you!" Shangguan Ya was no longer calm. She took out a Divine Blood Stone engraved with patterns and said, "Each Divine Blood Stone with Demonic Patterns contains one hundred points of Divine Blood Energy. I am willing to spend ten Divine Blood Stones to exchange for one hundred kilograms of the Spring of Life. But!"
Shangguan Ya stared intently at Jiang Yuan, then said, word by word, "But you have to come with me to see my grandfather!"
"The payment will be calculated separately!" Jiang Yuan said with a cunning grin.
“Okay, the payment will be calculated separately!” Shangguan Ya agreed.
"Then let's make a deal!"
Jiang Yuan waved his hand, easily filling a 100-kilogram bucket, then held out his hand and said, "Come on, cash on delivery!"
Shangguan Ya also took out a special bag, and asked hesitantly, "Then when will you come with me to the Northern City Alliance!"
"No rush. Let him take the Fountain of Life for a few days first. I can only treat Elder Meng after some of his hidden injuries have been healed!"
Jiang Yuan had received a favor from the Northern City Alliance. If it weren't for the Northern City Alliance, he wouldn't have been able to escape from the siege of Demon God Mountain so easily. Therefore, those who needed to be saved still needed to be saved.
“Okay, then I’ll wait seven days. You must come to see my grandfather after seven days!” Shangguan Ya deliberately added a number, afraid that Jiang Yuan would regret it or delay.
Jiang Yuan took the bag from Shangguan Ya. After confirming that it contained ten Divine Bloodstones with magical patterns, he nodded to indicate that he would keep the appointment on time.
"By the way, I heard Professor Yang wanted to see me!" Jiang Yuan looked at Yang Zhehan.
Yang Zhehan was clearly not a good talker. After Jiang Yuan asked him, he explained the purpose of his trip bit by bit.
"You want to cooperate with us to jointly develop energy weapons?"
It took Jiang Yuan a while to figure out Yang Zhehan's purpose.
"No, no, no, it's the cooperation between the Northern Alliance and the Oath!" Yang Zhehan corrected.
“Okay, then my two apprentices will come back in a few days and we can exchange ideas!” Jiang Yuan said with a smile. Actually, he was the master at forging energy weapons, but right now he couldn’t even use divine energy, let alone forge energy weapons, so he could only wait for Shi Xuyao and the others.
"Young friend, you have an apprentice at such a young age, you are truly promising!" Yang Zhehan exclaimed with deep emotion.
Jiang Yuan humbly replied, "There is no order of precedence in learning; those who are accomplished are my teachers. I was just a little lucky to be ahead of them."
“Apostle, thank you for your care along the way. On behalf of all the Zodiac members, I would like to express my gratitude to you!” Tianlong walked up to Jiang Yuan and bowed deeply.
"Alliance Leader, Tianlong, may I speak with Jiang Yuan for a few minutes?"
Jiang Yuan was about to tell Tianlong to relax and not worry about these favors when Yu Tu stepped in front of him first.
"Okay, we'll wait for you outside!"
Seeing the intriguing relationship between the two, Shangguan Ya nodded quickly. She had already achieved her goal for the day, so there was no need for her to stay.
Looking at the person in front of him, Jiang Yuan turned around, lit a cigarette a short distance away, and after exhaling a few puffs, said, "I heard you stayed by my side all day when I was injured?"
"Don't misunderstand, I'm just here to visit you on behalf of the North City Alliance, not for you!" Yu Tu lowered his head, the light in his eyes gradually dimming.
"I haven't touched this ring, here you go!" Jiang Yuan took out the ring that had been placed there before, and without waiting for Yu Tu's consent, he threw it back.
"You hate me that much! You don't even dare to take anything that has passed through my hands?" Yu Tu smiled sassily, trying her best to appear that she had already come to terms with it.
"More or less!" Jiang Yuan said dismissively.
Yu Tu gripped the ring tightly, his mind blank for a long time before finally squeezing out a sentence through gritted teeth: "I'm going to District D tomorrow!"
“Sector D is no safe place; it’s fraught with danger and a place where you’re almost guaranteed to die.” Although Jiang Yuan had never been there, he could tell how terrifying Sector D was just from the safe zones.
“This spot is voluntary. I have no ties in Nancheng, so it’s the most suitable place for me!” Yu Tu’s knuckles turned white as she clenched her fists. Her implication was that if she had someone in Nancheng who she cared about, she wouldn’t go to District D.
She was conflicted. She knew Jiang Yuan wouldn't say anything, but she still hoped to hear him say something like, "Stay."
"That's good, but a girl going to a place like that must ensure her safety!" Jiang Yuan nodded in approval of Ke Yu Tu's idea. To become stronger, one must put in a hundred times the effort of an ordinary person, and District D is the best place to hone one's skills.
Yu Tu squeezed his eyes shut and then silently turned and left.
"Wait a minute!" Jiang Yuan suddenly said, "We've known each other for a while now. Even if the relationship is a bit awkward, we still need to prepare a farewell gift!"
Yu Tu had lost all anger. At this moment, she suddenly understood and said, "Yes, it's better to forget each other in the vast world than to cling to each other in hardship!"
