The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms

Chapter 701: Chapter 698: Unravel the Dragon Plate!_1

However, what could they do? They were so confident at the time, setting up the competition rules with Li Ruoxiang. If they went back on their word now, their reputation would be ruined. For a force and a sect, spiritual veins may be a small matter, but their reputation is of great importance.

If people knew that these two forces acted so untrustworthy, who would come here as guests in the future?

With a frown, Huyan Shun weighed the pros and cons before reluctantly sighing, “Brother Han, there’s no need to ask further, right? If this kid surnamed Yang is so powerful, what’s the point of the third match?”

“So we just admit defeat like this?” The Elder from Wood Dragon City was clearly unwilling to give in: “We’d have to give up a part of our spiritual veins.”

“What can we do if we’re unwilling? Do you think I’m willing? Do you think I want to admit defeat? But the rules were set by us, and now Li Ruoxiang has found such a powerful person named Yang. What can anyone do?” Huyan Shun gritted his teeth in hatred.

At this moment, the people of Wood Dragon City didn’t make a sound, and Huyan Shun said fiercely, “Li Ruoxiang, I heard your people say that this kid is the Eastern Number One Genius. You’ve hired a good helper for sure. Today, our two sides have lost. There’s no need for the third match; we admit defeat! My Demon Subduing Sect and Wood Dragon City will each give up 10% of our spiritual veins, for a total of 20%!”

“In addition, bring up those Green Lotus Sect disciples!”

“Yes!”

The people below started making preparations to bring up the imprisoned Green Lotus Sect disciples.

Before long, a group of female disciples was brought up, crying like delicate pear blossoms in the rain. Seeing Li Ruoxiang and the others, they cried out for their sect leader.

“Release them.”, instructed Huyan Shun.

In an instant, the female disciples returned.

“Sect Leader, we didn’t cross the line at all.”

“They falsely accused us.”

“Right, the Demon Subduing Sect and Wood Dragon City had ill intentions. They falsely accused us.”

Listening to these words, Li Ruoxiang looked coldly at Huyan Shun and the people of Wood Dragon City.

This made both forces feel embarrassed. Huyan Shun coughed twice and said, “Well, we’ve released these disciples according to our agreement, and we’ve also decided on the matter of spiritual veins. Our two sides will withdraw first.”

Staying here would be humiliating, so naturally, Huyan Shun and the people of Wood Dragon City had no need to stay any longer. One by one, they left.

This allowed the disciples to vent their pain and grievances for a while.

In the end, it wasn’t hard to figure out that this was a plot by Wood Dragon City and the Demon Subduing Sect, and the Green Lotus Sect disciples never crossed the line in the first place!

However, at this point, Li Ruoxiang naturally wouldn’t pursue the matter further. With matters settled, she cherished what was in front of her and focused her attention on Yang Chen. There was no doubt that the Green Lotus Sect’s victory this time was not only due to the safe rescue of their disciples but also the acquisition of an additional 20% of spiritual veins, all closely related to Yang Chen.

Even so, she still found it difficult to say thank you to him, but remaining silent wasn’t an option either.

Li Ruoxiang thought for a moment and said,”Let’s go back first. Yang Chen, come with me later!”

“No problem.”, nodded Yang Chen.

So, leaving only a few disciples to watch over the spiritual veins, the rest of the people returned.

Upon returning to the Green Lotus Sect, Yang Chen accompanied Li Ruoxiang to her cultivation place.

As they crossed the courtyard and opened the door, Li Ruoxiang led Yang Chen in. It was only when there were no second persons left that she asked, “Tell me, before the matter of the spiritual veins happened, you said you had something to talk about. And it had to do with the Gold and Silver Dragon Plate. What’s it all about?”

Upon hearing Li Ruoxiang inquire about this, Yang Chen naturally had nothing to hide. He had originally intended to discuss this matter with Li Ruoxiang, and now that the matter of the spiritual veins was over, it was time to talk about it.

Yang Chen spoke earnestly,”I’ve found a way to unlock the Gold and Silver Dragon Plate.”

“What?!” Li Ruoxiang raised her brow in disbelief.

Yang Chen grinned, “That’s how it is.”

“Are you serious?” Li Ruoxiang’s eyebrows furrowed.

“Of course, why would I lie to you?” Yang Chen laughed helplessly. “I just happen to have studied some prohibitive methods, and the restrictions on this Gold and Silver Dragon Plate are not so different from prohibitions. Sect Leader Li, I think you can guess some of those principles too!”

“Prohibitions… I know that.” Li Ruoxiang said slowly, “However, the prohibitions on the Gold and Silver Dragon Plate are complex, and it’s difficult to achieve unless you have a deep understanding of them. My Green Lotus Sect is not some small sect, we can afford to invite some masters of prohibitive methods. But if there was any clue about this Gold and Silver Dragon Plate, I would have invited them already.”

Yang Chen was not concerned at all and said, “Please don’t worry, Sect Leader Li!”

Are you kidding? How could those masters of prohibitive methods compare to the Fishpeople Tribe?

Their tribe already mastered the Way of Forbidden Methods. They had already learned from the prohibitive methods masterpiece of the master Yu Ban. Their understanding of prohibitions was not something an ordinary master could explain.

Do you know what Yu Ban did? He created a great divine nation with his prohibitions!

Who would dare to compare their prohibitions with Yu Ban’s?

Thinking of this, Yang Chen naturally had no reason not to be confident. He said, “I only need a drop of Sect Leader Li’s Essence Blood. With this Essence Blood, I have the confidence to unlock the Gold and Silver Dragon Plate!”

Li Ruoxiang didn’t immediately give a reply but looked deeply at Yang Chen.

She saw him clearly and without any other intentions in his eyes.

This made her not think twice and directly handed over a drop of her Essence Blood.

Her Essence Blood hovered in her palm, floating slightly, as Li Ruoxiang said, “I’ll give you this Essence Blood, but are you sure you’ve thought this through?”

“Thought what through?” Yang Chen asked.

“If I had unlocked the Gold and Silver Dragon Plate, I could understand because I would be the losing party. But since you’re the one gaining an advantage, if you take the initiative to unlock the Gold and Silver Dragon Plate, you give up many opportunities to threaten me. Are you sure you’ve thought this through?” Li Ruoxiang asked.

Yang Chen silently laughed, “What’s losing or gaining, I only do the things I like. Using the Gold and Silver Dragon Plate for such boring constraints is simply an insult to the trust between people. Besides, Sect Leader Li, I wouldn’t dare to threaten you!”

With that said, Yang Chen laughed heartily, walking away with his hands behind his back.

Li Ruoxiang watched Yang Chen’s retreating figure, remaining silent for a long time, her eyebrows furrowing. Perhaps she still couldn’t quite understand Yang Chen’s inner thoughts. In her heart, there was no reason for Yang Chen to do these things.

“What a strange man!” Li Ruoxiang murmured to herself, then the corner of her mouth lifted, “And also a good seedling worth cultivating!”
