Chapter 69: The Deal is Completed, Soul Contract

Ella’s expression was very interesting. She was so shocked that she could not say anything. She simply could not figure out where Li Cheng got so many Divine Power Crystals from!

After more than ten seconds, her petite body finally calmed down. She stared at Li Cheng and said, “How about I exchange a God with you?”

Li Cheng originally thought that Ella would offer some kind of condition or something tempting, but he did not expect the Phantom Goddess to be so shameless.

He looked at her from head to toe. It had to be said that the Phantom Goddess still looked petite and cute, but how could she say such shameless words?

After thinking about it, it made sense. These Gods were existences that had lived for thousands of years, so something like saving face had probably been thrown into some corner.

“I say, Your Highness Goddess, do you think I’m stupid?” Li Cheng smiled contemptuously, not giving this God any face at all. He continued, “For a thousand small-scale Divine Power Crystals, even your transformation mask can’t be used to exchange for it, not to mention its an Immortal artifact!”

The transformation mask was the representative of the Phantom Goddess, an immortal artifact.

Hearing this, the Phantom Goddess also felt embarrassed. She coughed a few times to try to resolve the awkwardness. She was only trying. What if Li Cheng did not know what a divine artifact was?

As for whether she was embarrassed or not, she had lived for so long. Did she still care about being shameless? What could be exchanged for the crystals? If it could be exchanged, the Phantom Goddess indicated that she could look for it.

“Moreover, these crystals are useless to you. You can’t digest them at all.” Li Cheng even gave her a friendly reminder.

“I came to look for you to exchange for those Divine Power Crystals. Naturally, I’d have my own way of doing that.” Ella did not want to lose face as a God.

Hearing this, Li Cheng smiled and did not say much. With Ella’s current strength, it would be impossible for her to erase the Goddess of Poison’s mark on the crystals without spending a few hundred years doing it. At that time, the existence of this world would be a problem.

Speaking of this, Li Cheng felt that the time was ripe, so he said, “How about this, Your Highness, how about we make a deal?”

“What deal?” Ella was puzzled. She could not even walk after looking at a thousand Divine Power Crystals. She could get them just by making a deal?

Seeing that Ella was interested, Li Cheng struck while the iron was hot. “I can give you these Divine Power Crystals and help you solve the Kingdom of Kent’s problem…”

Before Li Cheng could say anything, Ella laughed disdainfully. “Do you even have the ability?”

The Kingdom of Kent had hundreds of billions of people, and all of them had combat power. With Li Cheng’s current military strength, Ella naturally did not believe that he could solve the problem.

Li Cheng did not show too much contempt toward Ella. He only said one sentence, “Believe it or not, it’s up to you.”

The Kingdom of Kent’s civil war would be a large version in the future. In his previous life, as a player who had participated in the entire process, Li Cheng could be said to be very familiar with it. If he wanted to save Ella’s believers, he had countless ways to do so.

“Alright, what do you want me to do?” Ella did not say much. Her current target was the Divine Power Crystal in Li Cheng’s hands.

She had lived for thousands of years, so she naturally knew that there would be no free lunch in the sky. With so many Divine Power Crystals, it was obvious that it would be very difficult to make a deal with him. She wanted to hear what it was to determine if she had the ability to complete it or not.

“First, I want to go to the passage of the Shadow World,” Li Cheng uttered his first request.

Hearing this, Ella was obviously stunned for a moment. Then, she looked at Lillian. With this Princess of the Shadow World around, what else did she need to do?

Lillian stood up and explained, “I can go to the Shadow World at any time, but I can’t open a large passage. The Lord’s troops can’t enter.”

Ella nodded and smiled. She naturally knew what Li Cheng wanted this passage for. If it was not for Lillian, what else could it be?

“If it’s Lillian’s request, I’ll help without your promise.”

After saying that, the Phantom Goddess gently rubbed her palm a few times. Instantly, a ball of light made of dark gray shadows appeared in front of Li Cheng. At the same time, the system’s voice rang in his ear.

“Ding, dong, you’ve obtained an item, a Legendary-grade Shadow Tunnel!”

[Shadow Tunnel (Legendary)]

[Description: A super large tunnel made by the Phantom Goddess that can lead to the Shadow World.]

[Level: 1]

[Grade: Legendary]

[Effect: creates a super large tunnel leading to the Shadow World.]

Li Cheng was a little surprised when he saw this effect. A Legendary super large tunnel. Although Ella was a God, her strength was so weak that it was touching. It was really a little surprising for her to casually give him a Legendary item.

Li Cheng was not very curious, so he did not ask too much. He immediately stated his next request, “The second condition is that if I take control of the Kingdom of Kent in the future, you have to help me stabilize the situation.”

Hearing this, Ella was speechless. She even suspected that she had heard wrong. Then, she burst into laughter. “Hahaha…”

She laughed so hard that she could not even stand straight. It was as if she had heard the biggest joke in the world. In her opinion, Li Cheng was completely dreaming. She guessed that if she was not currently a phantom, she would have laughed until she cried.

Li Cheng did not say anything. He just looked at Ella with a cold smile. If it was any other kingdom, he truly did not have much confidence in taking it down. However, if it was just the Kingdom of Kent, there was hope he could destroy it now if he really made a move!

After a full few minutes, Ella finally had enough. She looked at Li Cheng and said, “Okay, I’ll wait for that day.”

“Since Your Highness the Goddess has agreed, then let’s sign the soul contract,” Li Cheng said lightly.

Ella was no longer smiling and instead, she was very puzzled. How did a human know so much about the matters of Gods?

Then, she thought that Trelefany probably told him, so she did not struggle to think in this direction.

A soul contract was a bet using the souls of both parties. Once it was signed, even a God could not unilaterally cancel it.

After a moment of hesitation, Ella agreed.

A few minutes later, the contract was signed and the transaction was completed. Ella took the 1,000 pieces of Divine Power Crystals with satisfaction and her phantom disappeared into thin air.

An agreement appeared in Li Cheng’s mind. The general content was that both parties could not break the contract and that Ella had to fulfill her promise.

After the matter was over, Li Cheng put away the super-large tunnel in his hand and looked at Lillian. He asked, “Lillian, are you familiar with Ella?”
