I Pick Up A Bunch Of Attributes Novel - Chapter 265
265 A Promise From Shuang Xueming
Qing Lin’s short sentence immediately caused Shuang Xueming’s face to turn black. For a moment, even though his mouth was slightly opened, he was actually unable to say another word.
What could he say at a time like this?
That he, Shuang Xueming, the son of King Han of the extreme north, was just joking and that he actually wanted this Millennium Cold Chalcedony?
Shuang Xueming gritted his teeth. He seemed to be able to feel the mocking gazes coming from the other Heaven Seat mystical realms.
Obviously, his competitors were starting to enjoy a good show!
!!
The Millennium Cold Chalcedony was something that he must obtain.
However, he had already said those definitive words just now. If he went back on his word in public, his reputation would probably fall to the rock bottom in an instant.
At that time, he would always be a laughing stock whenever they mentioned his name!
“I have to think of a way.”
His gaze shifted and landed on the snake-tailed little girl.
Suddenly, Shuang Xueming felt his heart skip a beat.
“Maybe I can do that…”
In the blink of an eye, countless years of experiences flashed through his mind. In the end, Shuang Xueming coughed and said as calmly as possible, “I’m naturally not interested in the opportunities that belong to you.”
Swoosh—
Within the dense crowd of demon beasts, many of them instinctively heaved a sigh of relief.
Seeing this scene, a few more dark lines appeared on Shuang Xueming’s forehead. The corners of his eyes twitched a few times and it took him a long time to maintain his composure. He gritted his teeth slightly and continued, “However, whether it’s young friend Xia Donghai or the other young friends, what they said is indeed very reasonable. With so many living beings gathered at the foot of the Central Divine Mountain, it’s indeed a good opportunity for us to exchange and benefit from one another.”
He called Xia Donghai a young friend naturally because he thought that his failure was not because of the other party’s strength, but because the divine light on the Heavenly Stairway blocked his path.
“Therefore, until the Heavenly Stairway truly opens, I will continue to wait here. Regardless of whether it’s doubts about cultivation or other issues, as long as you’re willing to pay the price, you can receive my guidance and help.”
His short speech moved many people.
In the world of demon beasts, bloodlines were important to them.
It was not as if there was no such thing as teachings being imparted, but it was too rare. With Shuang Xueming’s reputation and strength, what he said at this moment undoubtedly made many demon beasts feel tempted.
“With the guidance of the son of King Han, even if our races are different, we might be able to get answers to our cultivation issues by way of analogy!”
“I’ve devoured two Dao Platform Realm spiritual flowers, but I’ve been stuck at a bottleneck and haven’t been able to break through. Perhaps the son of King Han will be able to find my problem…”
“Whether it’s the Millennium Cold Chalcedony or the guidance of the son of King Han, it can be said to be a great opportunity!”
Facing the clamoring demon beasts, Shuang Xueming finally nodded in satisfaction.
Then, he looked at the little girl.
He could clearly feel a sense of huge power coming from the snake-tailed little girl, but that power was hidden away very deeply.
Based on his experience, Shuang Xueming was able to deduce it immediately…
It was a powerful bloodline that was about to awaken!
However, for some reason, it had been stuck at the last step. It wanted to awaken but it could not, leading to this strange situation.
“I think… she should be able to understand my hint.”
Shuang Xueming was very confident about this.
The son of King Han!
These few words were enough to prove everything!
It was not beyond Shuang Xueming’s expectations.
After hearing his words, the snake-tailed little girl quickly frowned. She seemed to wave her tail uneasily, but soon, she seemed to have clearly understood something and nodded her head a few times.
For some reason, Shuang Xueming seemed to be seeing something.
The snake-tailed girl seemed to be nodding in the direction of Xia Donghai?
“It’s an illusion… It’s probably just an illusion.”
He shook his head vigorously. “It shouldn’t be so coincidental. Besides, if she knew Xia Donghai, why would she need to trade these Millennium Cold Chalcedony?”
The next moment, Shuang Xueming was satisfied to see the snake-tailed little girl turn towards him.
Then, he saw the little girl reach out her hand and point in his direction. She said in a childish voice, “Did you all hear that? Get the Millennium Cold Chalcedony from me and then ask the son of King Han to guide you to break through. Not everyone can enter the second level. Therefore, this might be the best opportunity for all of you!”
Shuang Xueming: “…”
You have got it completely wrong. That was not what he meant at all!
However, at this time, not many demon beasts cared about Shuang Xueming’s feelings. After listening to Qing Lin and combining the information with the generous speech from the son of King Han, there was only one word left in their minds——
Charge!!
“I can’t afford three drops of Millennium Cold Chalcedony, but I have an ancient treasure here that I obtained from a ruin in the Demon Imperial Tombs. It seems to be a treasure above the Primal Core Realm. Can I exchange it for a drop of Millennium Cold Chalcedony?”
“A treasure above the Primal Core Realm?”
Qing Lin swept her eyes over it. It was a slightly damaged green-skinned gourd. Its surface was covered with strange lines. At first glance, it appeared to be overflowing with an ancient feeling, as if it was some kind of treasure from the past!
Qing Lin was still hesitating when she heard Feng Xia’s voice in her ear.
“This green-skinned gourd is good stuff. You can take it.”
The little girl immediately nodded and smiled. “We can do an exchange.”
The one who took out the green-skinned gourd was a silver-purple scorpion. Its cultivation level was at the fifth level of the Dao Platform Realm. It quickly did the trade with Qing Lin, carefully put away the drop of Millennium Cold Chalcedony and then came in front of Shuang Xueming.
“Your Highness Shuang Xueming…”
It cast a hopeful gaze at Shuang Xueming.
A glimmer of hope lit up in Shuang Xueming’s eyes.
Could it be that this scorpion wanted to offer this drop of Millennium Cold Chalcedony to him? If that was the case, this fellow was quite good at reading someone from their body language. Although its strength was a little weak, it was not impossible for him to…
Just as he thought of this, the scorpion suddenly opened its mouth and swallowed the drop of Millennium Cold Chalcedony.
“Your Highness Shuang Xueming, I’m Xie Ding. I would like to use an ancient treasure in exchange for you to protect me as I digest this drop of Millennium Cold Chalcedony.”
“…”
Shuang Xueming did not even have the strength to curse.
Can you be any less observant?
“It’s not enough. This kind of trash is far from enough.”
Under Xie Ding’s hopeful gaze, Shuang Xueming spat out a sentence coldly.
When Xie Ding heard this, it panicked. “Your Highness! This sword is similar to that green-skinned gourd. It seems to be an ancient treasure above the Primal Core Realm! You can take a closer look…”
It was only after he heard Shuang Xueming’s impassioned and hot-blooded speech that he felt at ease to consume the Millennium Cold Chalcedony. Therefore, he did not expect Shuang Xueming to reject him so bluntly!
“Hmph, it’s above the Primal Core Realm just because you said so?” Shuang Xue Ming sneered. “It may just be some trash. You can deceive a little girl, but you can’t deceive my eyes.”
Xie Ding’s aura fluctuated violently and his face instantly turned pale.
If Shuang Xueming did not make a move to help, with its own cultivation at the fifth level of the Dao Platform Realm, it would be impossible for it to neutralize the cold energy in the Millennium Cold Chalcedony. Once the cold energy erupted, it would probably be frozen to death on the spot!
“How can this be…” Despair crept into Xie Ding’s heart.
“I can help you neutralize the cold energy of the Millennium Cold Chalcedony.”
Right at this moment, a calm voice came over from the Heavenly Stairway.
