735 Transaction with the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven, Rejection (2)

Tang Qianluo patted the armrest of his chair and said loudly, “I’ve heard a lot about you, King Zhou. You’re indeed a dragon among men, a young hero.”

“Senior Tang, you flatter me.” Zhou Shu didn’t know how to address Tang Qianluo, so he could only address him as senior.

“What can I do for you, Senior Tang?”

Although Zhou Shu had thought of negotiating with the higher-ups of these grotto-heavens, he didn’t expect Tang Qianluo to come so quickly and find him directly.

Logically speaking, even if the higher-ups of these grotto-heavens wanted to talk to someone, they should go to the emperors of the Ten Nations.

“King Zhou, please sit,” Tang Qianluo said unhurriedly. He raised his hand and beckoned, and a chair automatically flew behind Zhou Shu.

His every move was without any aura, like an immortal.

Zhou Shu’s expression didn’t change as he sat down.

This bronze palace was not bad, but it was just not bad. It was inferior to his Lingxiao Treasure Palace.

After Zhou Shu sat down, Tang Qianluo slowly said, “I came this time to discuss a transaction with you, King Zhou.”

“A transaction?” Zhou Shu was a little surprised. He had just discussed one with Tang Mao’er, and then the head of the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven came to discuss another with him?

The problem was that this was the first time he had met Tang Qianluo. What kind of transaction could they have?

Although Zhou Shu wouldn’t belittle himself, he wouldn’t be arrogant.

These grotto-heavens had been pa.s.sed down for ten thousand years and had a deep foundation. Zhou Shu didn’t think that he could be on equal footing with them.

It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that Zhou Shu was probably only at the level worthy of interacting with Tang Mao’er, Zheng Yongtai, and the other juniors. Tang Qianluo, the head of a grotto-heaven, had a much higher cultivation and status than Zhou Shu.

To be honest, even the Great Qin emperor and Emperor Yuan Feng were inferior to existences like Tang Qianluo.

It had to be said that the greatest impact of the appearance of the grotto-heavens was the change in status.

A grotto-heaven was comparable to a powerful nation. They would choose how to interact with the various nations. The initiative was completely not with the various nations but with the grotto-heavens.

This was determined by strength. Even Zhou Shu couldn’t do anything about it.

Tang Qianluo was not the master of the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven. But if the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven was a nation, he would be the emperor of the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven. The master of the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven should be the G.o.d of the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven.

No matter what, Tang Qianluo’s status was definitely extraordinary.

“May I know what transaction Senior Tang wants to make with me?” Zhou Shu looked at Tang Qianluo.

Tang Qianluo smiled. “King Zhou, you made storms in the Demon Realm, and you have helped us humans vent our anger.”

“I was just trying to survive. Senior Tang, just say what you have to say,” Zhou Shu said.

In the Demon Realm, although he had made storms, the whole army had almost been completely wiped out in the end. To Zhou Shu, this was not a glorious thing.

Tang Qianluo was speechless and smiled. “King Zhou, you are a straightforward person. In that case, I won’t beat around the bush.

“King Zhou, you should have a Divine Stone. I wonder if you can give it up? Also, I want to buy a batch of the forging materials you obtained in the Demon Realm.

“As for the price, I will definitely satisfy you. I have some gold, silver, and jewelry.”

The smile on Tang Qianluo’s face was perfect.

Zhou Shu frowned.

He indeed had a Divine Stone in his hand. Ji Lutian had handed it to Zhou Shu through Cao Chenyang and the others.

Not many people knew about this. How did Tang Qianluo know?

As for the forging materials he had obtained in the Demon Realm, it wasn’t too much of a secret.

Zhou Shu pondered for a moment before saying, “I’m sorry, Senior Tang. I still have use for the Divine Stone. I’m afraid I won’t be able to sell it to you.”

Divine Stones were the key to the existence of inner worlds in connate divine weapons. Even now, Zhou Shu wasn’t very sure how Divine Stones came about. Back at the Demon Realm Ancestral Court, Bai Qianqian had once said that they were refined from the heavens.

Although Zhou Shu didn’t understand the specific process, it was obvious that Divine Stones were definitely extraordinary.

Now, Tang Qianluo’s reaction proved this.

If it was an ordinary forging material, was it worth him, the head of a grotto-heaven, personally appearing?

Tang Qianluo wanted to use gold, silver, and jewelry to exchange for the Divine Stone. He was bullying him for his ignorance.

Displeasure flashed across Tang Qianluo’s eyes. “Maybe I didn’t express myself clearly.

“King Zhou, the Divine Stone is related to the plan to resist the demonic beasts. It’s useless for you to keep it. Give it to me. My Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven won’t mistreat you.”

Zhou Shu sneered in his heart. Are you trying to take the moral high ground?

The Divine Stone is related to the plan to resist demonic beasts?

So what?

Then, should I give you the Divine Stone?

Do you really think I’m a three-year-old child?

“Senior Tang, I will not shrink from resisting the demonic beasts. But this Divine Stone is really useful to me,” Zhou Shu said seriously. “To be honest with you, Senior Tang, I’ve already used the Divine Stone to forge—”

“Impossible!” Tang Qianluo interrupted Zhou Shu. “King Zhou, if you think that my grotto-heaven has been in seclusion for many years and knows nothing about the outside world, you’re wrong.

“King Zhou, I know about you. With your current cultivation, you can’t use the Divine Stone.”

Zhou Shu looked at Tang Qianluo. This isn’t going according to plan.

I was just looking for an excuse to reject you. Why did you take it seriously?

Don’t you know that the truth hurts?

Zhou Shu looked at Tang Qianluo. “Senior Tang, I’m not selling the Divine Stone.”

Tang Qianluo frowned slightly. “King Zhou, I’ve given you enough face by coming personally. Do you want to reconsider?”

If the soft approach doesn’t work, is he going to use the hard approach? Zhou Shu had nothing to be afraid of. Although a grotto-heaven was strong, he wasn’t a pushover.

“Senior Tang, since you’ve investigated me, you should know the origin of the Divine Stone I have,” Zhou Shu asked solemnly.

“Of course.” Tang Qianluo nodded.

Zhou Shu was stunned. Not many people knew about the Divine Stone. Where did Tang Qianluo find out?

“I obtained the Divine Stone from Ji Lutian. Senior Tang, if you need Divine Stones, why don’t you look for him? He might have other Divine Stones,” Zhou Shu continued. “As for the Divine Stone in my hand, I won’t sell it.”

“You want to use Ji Lutian to suppress me?” Tang Qianluo snorted coldly. An invisible aura spread out, and the temperature in the entire palace seemed to drop by a few degrees.

“Senior Tang, why do you say that?” Five towering mountains appeared in Zhou Shu’s mind. He circulated the spiritual essence in his body and activated the Eight-Nine Arcane Art. His expression didn’t change as he said, “I’m just telling you another way to obtain Divine Stones.

“Since it’s a transaction, I can naturally choose not to sell it. Senior Tang, are you planning to use your power to suppress me?”

Zhou Shu looked at Tang Qianluo without any intention of backing down.

Tang Qianluo stared straight into Zhou Shu’s eyes. After a long while, he laughed loudly. “As expected of the person chosen by Ji Lutian, you’re really a young talent!

“Since you’re unwilling to part with it, I won’t make things difficult for you. Let’s forget about this matter.”

Zhou Shu rejected the translation with the Divine Stone, and Tang Qianluo no longer mentioned the other forging materials. It was as if he didn’t care about the other forging materials at all.

After exchanging a few more words with Zhou Shu, Tang Qianluo directly opened the door and sent him off.

Just as Zhou Shu stepped out of the bronze palace, he heard a bang behind him. When he turned around, the bronze palace had already disappeared.

Tang Mao’er flew over and said nervously, “Brother Zhou, why did my uncle look for you?”

He had asked to purchase connate divine weapons from Zhou Shu privately. The military funds were not for him to do this.

“It’s nothing.” Zhou Shu had a thoughtful expression on his face as he shook his head. “Tang Mao’er, I still have something to do. When you need to forge connate divine weapons later, just bring people and materials to look for me. We’ll meet again!”

Before he finished speaking, Zhou Shu had already turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the horizon. The direction he disappeared in was toward Great Qin’s capital.
