God Emperor Chapter 1831 - Mister Godcliff’s Goal

Chapter 1831: Mister G.o.dcliff’s Goal

“This is troublesome! The wealth the Fairy Tianchu, Luo Ji could mobilize is not something we can compare. Fairy Lian Xi, why not just give the fragment of the Supreme Sacred Artifact to her?” The Drifter said.

The Wayfarer added, “Our goal is the Eastern Region Saint King manor. We do not need any more complications at this juncture.”

Fairy Lian Xi did not intend to stop and continued to bid. “3.5 billion Saint Stones.”

“Four billion Saint Stones,” Fairy Tianchu called.

“Five billion Saint Stones.”

…

It was just a fragment of a Supreme Sacred Artifact, and the price had been raised at a frenzied level by these two scions of heaven to over 8 billion Saint Stones.

Most of the cultivators in the Tianjue Pavilion were already dumbfounded.

“Spending 8 billion Saint Stones for a fragment, are they insane?”

“With so many Saint Stones, if I were to purchase resources for cultivation, it will be more than enough to speed up my cultivation progress by leaps and bounds, and in reach the rank of a Nine-step Saint King in a short period of time.”

Inside the private room, Xiang Chunan’s eyes lit up as a burning crimson brilliance emitted from his eyes as he said, “Big Brother, how about we go and rob them, we will definitely make a fortune.”

“Among the Saint King cultivators, who would bring so much Saint Stones on their person? I’m guessing both King Daxi and Fairy Tianchu would need to mobilize the Soul Realm and the Tianchu Civilization in order to get such a huge amount of Saint Stones,” Zhang Ruochen said.

Zhang Ruochen knew why Fairy Tianchu did not hesitate the astronomical cost to purchase the tortoisesh.e.l.l fragment. It was because she had seen Awesome the Little Taoist’s Purple-Gold Bagua Mirror.

Now, King Daxi, Jueyan Hu, and Xie Canghai, all these ancient monsters were very close. For Fairy Tianchu to go up against her, even if she wins the bid, and gets the tortoisesh.e.l.l fragment, she would suffer revenge attacks.

At this moment, Fairy Tianchu called another astronomical raise in the bid. “Ten billion Saint Stones.”

As soon as the bid was raised, Fairy Lian Xi fell silent, and a moment later, she softly said, “Since you are so persistent, Fairy Tianchu, I’ll give this fragment to you!”

Fairy Tianchu did not speak, and she waited until Zi Lan on the sacred jade platform called out “Sold”. The Butcher, who was behind Fairy Tianchu, went straight to negotiate with the manager of Tianjue Pavilion. It was clear that they were discussing the terms of payment.

Fairy Tianchu was taken by a steward of Tianjue Pavilion to a private room on the fourth floor.

Luo Yi said, “Brother Ruochen, the situation in Tianjue Pavilion now is very complicated, and there might be a ma.s.sive conflict that will spiral beyond control erupting here. It’s better for us to leave now.”

Zhang Ruochen pondered for a moment before he said, “All of you leave first, I have something to do, and need to wait.”

“No, the Teleportation Array Your highness had inscribed is one-use only. If we leave now, how would you leave?” Murong Yue said.

Zhang Ruochen replied, “If I want to leave, aside from a Supreme Saint, there are not many who can keep me behind.”

“How about that Array Master? The means available to an Array Master is not something we could imagine. Your Highness, let’s go, what are you staying behind for? Is it to s.n.a.t.c.h the Tears of the Void and the tortoisesh.e.l.l fragment? We can always find other ways.” Murong Yue was quite worried about Zhang Ruochen’s safety.

Luo Yi added, “I think Miss Murong’s words are reasonable. Jueyan Hu and his ilk are very powerful. They are not people we can contend with. They probably already know that the G.o.d Stone on Kong Hongbi had already fallen into our hands. If chaos were to erupt in Tianjue Pavilion, we are bound to be attacked. When that time comes, can we withstand the attacks?”

The suspended sacred jade platform started to auction the next treasure.

Zhang Ruochen demurred for a moment before saying, “Wait for me in the room first. I’ll meet that Fairy Tianchu. If there’s chaos, don’t need to wait for me, activate the teleportation array, and leave.”

Immediately after, despite Murong Yue and the others trying to dissuade him, Zhang Ruochen walked to the private room on the fourth floor.

“I have long been admiring of Fairy Tianchu’s name, and am here to visit with hopes to speak to the Fairy,” Zhang Ruochen said.

The gaze of many cultivators in Tianjue Pavilion cast their eyes on the fourth floor of the private room.

“Everyone, take a guess if that arrogant b.a.s.t.a.r.d has fallen head over heels over the fairy’s absolute beauty, and so he paid her a visit for the tortoisesh.e.l.l fragment?” a cultivator said jokingly.

“Whatever the reason, it is absolutely impossible for Fairy Tianchu to want to see him.”

“Fairy Tianchu does not bother herself with worldly matters, and is extremely pure, how would she agree to meet an arrogant fellow like that guy?”

“In the past, when Divine Scion s.h.i.+qing pursued Fairy Tianchu and used a heaven-grade sacred pill, the Kunxu Pill as a meeting gift, he did not even get an opportunity to see how she looked like.”

…

As the crowd gossiped, the door of the private room on the fourth floor opened.

The Butcher walked out and smiled at Zhang Ruochen as he said, “The Fairy invites you.”

Amidst the stunned looks in the eyes of the cultivators present, Zhang Ruochen walked into the private room.

Immediately after, something even more shocking happened, the Butcher and the Fool who had been following Fairy Tianchu actually walked out of the room and stood guard on both sides of the door.

In other words, Fairy Tianchu was actually willing to meet that arrogant bast*rd alone.

In the hall, G.o.d knows how many cultivators were mad with envy and jealousy, if not for the tyrannical aura emanating from both the Butcher and the Fool had restrained them, they would probably have rushed to the private room on the fourth floor.

Walking into the private room, Zhang Ruochen caught a whiff of a familiar faint fragrance, and in his mind, the various things that had happened at the Altar of Divinity Bestowment appeared, and an enchanting feeling appeared.

Fairy Tianchu sat behind a layer of moon-white curtain, revealing a beautiful, alluring outline of her figure.

“Were you here for the tortoisesh.e.l.l fragment?”

The clear and melodious voice came from behind the curtain.

Zhang Ruochen stood still, and his eyes deep as he said, “In the near future, the Eastern Region Holy City will undergo an upheaval, and the source of that upheaval is probably inside Tianjue Pavilion. I’m here to advise you to leave as soon as possible.”

As the candlelight swayed gently, the figure behind the curtain appeared looming.

After a while, the figure stood up and stretched out a fair, jade-like hand as she opened the curtain.

It was the most beautiful hand in the world, with five long fingers, and skin most smooth and fair. Even a gentle movement had enough beauty to touch one’s soul.

Fairy Tianchu walked out from behind the curtain without a veil nor being wrapped in Saint Light.

There were very few cultivators who had seen her true face.

However, not a single cultivator who had seen her true face did not find it difficult to breathe and have their hearts confused. This was not the first time Zhang Ruochen had seen her true face, yet even he felt a little difficult to breathe as ripples formed in his calm heart.

“It was precisely because I’ve caught wind that an upheaval might happen in the Eastern Region Holy City, that I rushed over. Perhaps, you would need my help.” With her delicate eyes, Fairy Tianchu stared at Zhang Ruochen who was facing her.

“She had seen through my real ident.i.ty? Should be. She could see the spiritual strength of every cultivator, and even if I were to use the 36 Formless Transformation, I won’t be able to fool her.”

Zhang Ruochen did not deliberately admit his ident.i.ty and said, “The situation in the Eastern Region Holy City is not something we can sway. If Fairy is able to trust me, let’s go to the private room on the fifth floor. I have already set up a teleportation array there, and we can leave together.”

Fairy Tianchu gently shook her head as she said, “Do you think that you can use a single dimensional teleportation array to escape the eyes of a master?’

“It turns out that Fairy also knows that there is a master in Tianjue Pavilion.” Zhang Ruochen was slightly surprised.

Fairy Tianchu continued, “Not only I know that he is a master, but I also know that he is an Array Master. He is also the person sent by the Celestial Court to the East Region Holy City to repair the ancient wards in the Holy City.”

“What? It’s him that is responsible for repairing the ancient wards of the Holy City?” Zhang Ruochen was shocked.

One needed to know, that if this person was in charge of repairing the ancient ward inscriptions of the Holy City, then he must know all of the ancient wards in the city, and could mobilize wards to suppress everything within the city.

In other words, in the Eastern Region Holy City, he was a G.o.d.

Aside from a Supreme Saint, there was unlikely anyone could contend with him.

Fairy Tianchu said, “This person’s name is Mister G.o.dcliff, a cultivator from the Heavenly Realm. It may be better if you don’t reveal your ident.i.ty. If you were to activate the teleportation array, your ident.i.ty will undoubtedly be revealed, and by then, Mister G.o.dcliff will definitely focus all of his attention on you. Do you have the confidence to escape alive from the hands of an Array Master?”

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes were extremely solemn, as he gently shook his head.

Fairy Tianchu continued, “Based on my guess, the person behind the coming upheaval is none other than Mister G.o.dcliff himself.”

“Now, only the Eastern Region Saint King Manor and Mister G.o.dcliff could control the ancient wards and the Orbital Array in the Holy City. If the Eastern Region Saint King Manor is taken out, no one would be able to restrain Mister G.o.dcliff.”

“By then, Mister G.o.dcliff will be the master of the entire Eastern Region Holy City, and all of the rules will be set by him, and all of his interests fulfilled first.”

“The Eastern Region Holy City is awakening, who knows how many resources and treasures will be born here. Even with just one hundred thousand-year-old sacred medicine being born here every day, it will be a terrifying amount of wealth after a long period of acc.u.mulation.”

“Moreover, you should know better than me that the Eastern Region Holy City is the central hub of the entire Eastern Region. By controlling the Holy City, controlling the entire Eastern Region would be quite easy.”

Zhang Ruochen got more and more terrified as he heard that. “So that’s how it is.”

Originally, Zhang Ruochen had only taken the att.i.tude of a bystander on the oncoming upheaval in the Eastern Region Saint King Manor and did not plan to interfere. However, upon listening to Fairy Tianchu’s a.n.a.lysis, he realized what he needed to do.

First, was because Zhang Ruochen and the cultivators of the Heavenly Realm were at the point of not resting until the other side is dead.

Secondly, if Mister G.o.dcliff was to become the lord of the Eastern Region Saint King Manor, all of the living beings in the Eastern Region would have to be his slaves, and all of the treasures and resources of the Eastern Region would be squeezed dry by the Heavenly Realm.

“How could we fight against the Array Master?” Zhang Ruochen frowned deeply.

An Array Master can challenge a Supreme Saint, not to mention that the Eastern Region Holy City is Mister G.o.dcliff’s home ground, and it was almost impossible to fight against him.

Even a Supreme Sacred Artifact would be taken out by him unless a Divine Artifact was revealed.

Fairy Tianchu had a thoughtful look as she faintly said, “In terms of spiritual power, there’s one person who may be able to compete with Mister G.o.dcliff, she should be with you, right?”
