Chapter 84 - 84: The Bronze Token
“Since Your Highness says so, then I won’t keep you in suspense.”
Su Chen poured himself another cup of spiritual wine and drank it in one gulp before putting it down.
Buzz…
He flipped his palm and a crystal clear jade bottle appeared in his palm.
“Hmm?”
Seeing the jade bottle, the Ninth Princess frowned and looked at Su Chen strangely. “What is this…”
“Earth Spirit Milky Liquid!”
Su Chen replied with four words.
“Earth Spirit Milky Liquid?”
The Ninth Princess’s heart skipped a beat, and a huge wave surged in her heart.
She tightly grasped the armrests, her posture becoming more upright.
However, she maintained a calm appearance on the surface.
“Are you taking out the Earth Spirit Milky Liquid to show off your Great Mystery Sect’s wealth?”
The Ninth Princess glanced at the Earth Spirit Milky Liquid and asked calmly.
The Earth Spirit Milky Liquid was extremely precious.
There was not much Earth Spirit Milky Liquid in the entire Dachu Imperial Family.
Even if she was the Ninth Princess of the Dachu Empire, it would be difficult for her to get the Earth Spirit Milky Liquid from the Dachu Emperor.
Now that Su Chen suddenly took out the Earth Spirit Milky Liquid, the Ninth Princess could not help but speculate about his intentions.
Right now, she just happened to have a martial art that was stuck at the most critical point, and she urgently needed the Earth Spirit Milky Liquid.
And Su Chen happened to take it out…
Was he trying to show his loyalty to her?
One had to know.
Just now, the Eldest Prince had used a jade pendant to recruit him, but Su Chen did not take out the Earth Spirit Milky Liquid.
On the contrary, without her offering anything, Su Chen took out the Earth Spirit Milky Liquid.
She would never believe that there was no intention behind this gift!
After all, no one would be stupid enough to show off the Earth Spirit Milky Liquid in front of the Ninth Princess of the Dachu Empire.
“Your Highness, you worry too much. I am not a frivolous person.”
Su Chen casually threw the jade bottle containing the Earth Spirit Milky Liquid to the Ninth Princess, drank another cup of spiritual wine, and said, “I just feel that there’s no such a thing as a free lunch. This is the payment for today’s meal.”
“Oh?”
The Ninth Princess reached out her slender hand and caught the jade bottle. She then probed it with her divine sense.
There was no doubt that the jade bottle contained the Earth Spirit Milky Liquid!
This made her look at Su Chen with a touch of warmth in her eyes.
Anyone who obtained a bottle of Earth Spirit Milky Liquid for no reason would probably not be able to harbor any ill intentions towards the giver.
He wondered how the Ninth Princess would feel if she knew that he directly used the Earth Spirit Milky Liquid like water.
The Ninth Princess placed the Earth Spirit Milky Liquid aside and said slowly, “How did you know that I was the host of the banquet?”
“Intuition,” Su Chen replied indifferently.
He didn’t give the bottle of Earth Spirit Milky Liquid to the Ninth Princess just because he ate the food here.
His intuition told him that the Ninth Princess might be of great help to him in the future.
“Haha…”
The Ninth Princess chuckled and said nothing.
At this moment, she had already decided that Su Chen should be on her side.
Otherwise, why would he give her the Earth Spirit Milky Liquid?
After all.
She had only met Su Chen once. Even if she was the Ninth Princess of Dachu, she did not think that she could use this identity to get a small bottle of Earth Spirit Milky Liquid from someone she had just met.
Pondering for a moment, the Ninth Princess flipped her hand and a bronze token appeared in her palm.
She gently caressed the token, then gritted her teeth and threw it to Su Chen.
“I’m not a stingy person. Since you gave me a bottle of Earth Spirit Milky Liquid today, I’ll give you a token in return! The jade pendant that my brother gave you earlier can allow you to do whatever you want in Imperial Supreme City. Although this token of mine can’t be used in Imperial Supreme City, once you are outside the city, no matter where you are, as long as you activate the token, a powerful cultivator will appear and help you!”
“Oh?”
Hearing this, Su Chen’s eyes lit up.
He took the token and examined it carefully.
The token was bronze in color and was made of some unknown material. It was cold to the touch, and there was a crescent moon and several stars engraved on it. It looked extremely mysterious.
“What a pleasant surprise!”
Su Chen put the token into his storage ring and cupped his hands at the Ninth Princess.
“Thank you, Princess! It’s already late, so I’ll take my leave first!”
After saying that, Su Chen stood up and walked out of the hall.
“Take care!”
The Ninth Princess stood up and said with a smile.
This attitude was already very polite to Su Chen.
The Ninth Princess of Dachu stood up to send him off. Ordinary prodigies did not have such treatment.
And now.
In the Ninth Princess’s opinion, Su Chen deserved such treatment.
This was because Su Chen was the first person who had not been recruited by her but voluntarily joined her side.
In addition, Su Chen had an unparalleled talent He had stepped into the Forbidden Stage in the Qi Gathering Realm.
With such talent, his future achievements would definitely be remarkable!
“What happened recently? First, a mysterious person came to me with the Spirit Sea Pill. Then, the prodigy of the Great Mystery Sect, Su Chen, gave me a bottle of Earth Spirit Milky Liquid…”
The Ninth Princess looked back at the jade bottle beside her, and her dark eyes were filled with excitement.
“Looks like I’m really as the sect elders said, someone blessed with great providence! With such great providence, how can my elder brother be a match for me… But speaking of which, that mysterious person came to me with the Spirit Sea Pill asking to exchange it for a spot to enter the Hundred Demon Battlefield. I should give her a response now!”
In the depths of the palace, inside a secret room.
A figure bathed in divine light sat cross-legged.
She seemed to be immersed in her cultivation, and her body emitted the aura of dragons and tigers, looking incredibly mystical.
The entire secret chamber was covered in a mysterious glow.
There were two black figures behind her. They were motionless without any discernible aura like two shadows quietly guarding her.
At this moment, a knock was heard on the door.
The figure who was originally cultivating suddenly opened her eyes. Her dazzling gaze was like purple lightning that illuminated the entire secret chamber.
“Please come in.”
A very gender-neutral voice was heard, making it impossible to identify the specific gender.
“Creak…”
The door to the secret room was pushed open.
The Ninth Princess dressed in a long skirt gracefully entered the secret room, looking like a celestial maiden from the Noon Palace.
Her dark beautiful eyes swept over the figure sitting in the secret chamber, her gaze filled with curiosity as she probed.
It had been some time since the figure had arrived at her mansion.
However, even now, she still could not see the other party’s identity.
Even…
She didn’t even know if the other party was male or female or the appearance and cultivation level of this person.
The only thing she knew was that the other party claimed to be a descendant of the ancient Heavenly Puppet Sect and possessed a Spirit Sea Pill, intending to make a deal with her.
“Princess, what do you think?”
The figure sitting cross-legged in the secret chamber also sized up the Ninth Princess and asked slowly..
