Duke Yu sneered, "Would you exchange this Heavenly Orchid for something if you were me?"

"No." Chu Yang sighed. Sword Spirit also sighed in his mind.
How could there be any hope if Duke Yu had said so?
Duke Yu took a few steps forward, and arrived at the passage. He looked at the Heavenly Orchid for a long time. His eyes were full of reluctance. Then, he slowly said, "This thing is precious, and it's the only living witness I have. But, I can give it to you if you promise me one thing."
"What is it?" Chu Yang's heart trembled.
"What is your identity?" Duke Yu suddenly turned his head, and looked at Chu Yang. Then, he asked without rhyme or reason.
"Huh?"
"Are you..." Duke Yu approached him step by step.
"Brother Yu?"
"Are you... are you... are you... are you..." Duke Yu said 'are you' a dozen times in a row. The look in his eyes became even more ferocious. But, he suddenly exposed a trace of contradiction and pain. Then, he finally stopped and said, "Do you... have a strange storage space?"
Chu Yang turned pale with fright when he asked this question. But, Chu Yang was even more surprised when he didn't ask this question!
Duke Yu didn't ask this question clearly. But, Chu Yang knew what it was.
"Don't worry. I will keep your secret!" Duke Yu's forehead was sweating. He lowered his head in disappointment and said, "I started to suspect you the first time I saw you..."
"I started to be certain when I was outside the Prefectural City. So, I deliberately left... and let you do your own thing. "
"Diwu Qing Rou came to look for me three days before you arrived," Duke Yu gently smiled. But, his smile was full of complexity.
"So, I was half-certain when I saw your cultivation when you came up."
"You plundered treasures and strange metals all the way here. So, I was basically certain." Duke Yu clasped his hands behind his back and laughed mischievously. There was a hint of self-mockery in his laughter as he said, "Therefore, I originally wanted to find two Purple Crystal Cores for you. However, I changed my mind and gave you the Sun and Moon Ointment instead!"
"Now, do you understand what I mean?" Duke Yu tilted his head and looked at Chu Yang.
Chu Yang took a deep breath. He felt that his thoughts were somewhat flustered. But, he forced himself to calm down. Then, he said in a low and deep voice, "Duke Yu is indeed worthy of being called Duke Yu."
"Don't worry. No one in this world can link you to these clues apart from me and the big ruling clans of the Upper Three Heavens. As for the Hegemon Clans … hehe, you don't have to worry about them for now. Even Diwu Qing Rou, who was in direct contact with you, only had a little guess. In fact, his chances of success are no more than ten to twenty percent! "
"That's why Diwu Qing Rou placed such a huge bet on you. He didn't hesitate to overthrow himself in order to fulfill your wish!" Duke Yu snorted.
"Ten to twenty percent … and he dares to be so crazy?" Chu Yang was a little puzzled.
"Haha … a ten to twenty percent chance of success is already beyond our expectations! Diwu Qing Rou would risk everything to fight for this one thousandth chance even if it's only one thousandth chance! "Duke Yu chuckled.
"Diwu Qing Rou wouldn't leak your information. On the contrary, you're a rare commodity to him! He wouldn't even have enough time to hide it … because he has placed the hope of the Diwu Clan on you. You're finished, and so is the Diwu Clan. "
"There's such a thing …" Chu Yang was really at a loss, "Where did this come from …"
Duke Yu smiled coldly, "Take me for example. I really want to kill you! Because you're the master of that thing's inheritance after all! But, I can't kill you. Moreover, I have to protect you. In fact, I have to give you whatever you want. So, you have to promise me one thing! "
"What is it?" Chu Yang asked. Duke Yu had already mentioned this condition twice in a row.
"I only want you to promise me now. I'll mention it when the time is right." Duke Yu said, "You don't know whether you can do it or not now. I also don't know whether you can do it or not. But, I have to remind you that you'll be in a very difficult position if that day comes. "
Duke Yu sighed and said, "So, you need to consider it carefully now."
Chu Yang felt dizzy.
[You don't say anything. You want me to promise you, and then you want me to consider it carefully … What kind of statement is this? How can I consider it if you don't tell me anything? Can I consider it with my ass?]
"Promise him! Promise him! Promise him ah ah ah … "Sword Spirit madly bared his fangs and brandished his claws in Chu Yang's mind. He was jumping up and down. His remnant soul was so excited that his face turned red.
Chu Yang lowered his head. He seriously and deeply considered it. [It must be a very important thing for Duke Yu to say this. Moreover, I'll be in a very difficult position … Why am I in a very difficult position?]
[Even now, the friendship between us is very close. Duke Yu had helped me in Great Zhao and the Three Heavens, and he had also promised to be my brothers' sparring partner … I would've fulfilled any condition that Duke Yu had put forward even if he hadn't given me the Heavenly Orchid!]
[But, he would rather use a priceless Heavenly Orchid in exchange for an illusory promise.] [Why?]
[This shows that this matter is related to the principles of the Tribulation Sword Master!]
Chu Yang finally raised his head. He said with difficulty, "I'm sorry, Brother Yu. I refuse!"
Sword Spirit screamed in Chu Yang's mind. He fell to the ground. His face was covered in tears as he cursed, "Great Sword Master … You're a cheap pig! A cheap pig! Motherfu * ker, you rushed to ask for it when he didn't want to give it to you. But, you pushed him away when he gave it to you with both hands … You're cheap! Why are you so cheap … My Heavenly Orchid … Boohoo … My divine soul is forever fixed … Boohoo … My cheap pig … Lord ah ah ah ah … "
A disappointed look appeared on Duke Yu's face. But, he nodded with gratification, "You didn't agree. In fact, I was sure that you wouldn't agree. I wasn't wrong about you. "
He looked up to the sky and heaved a long sigh. His expression was full of loneliness and pain.
Chu Yang's body suddenly relaxed after he had refused. He didn't have any more thoughts or burdens. So, he said, "Brother Yu, I've disturbed you for a long time. Shouldn't we go out?"
"Yes, and that White Crystal Ore … Sigh." Duke Yu looked at Chu Yang with an unknown expression. Then, he forced a smile and said, "I want to kill you right now. But, I don't dare to do so. That's because I don't have much time left … I'll disappear as soon as I've lived for a hundred thousand years … I'll disappear from this world. I can only do this even if you don't agree. "
He sighed and said, "I don't expect you to agree to my conditions. I'll give you this Heavenly Orchid. It should grow better with you than with me. Remember, you owe me a favor. "
"Favor? How? "Chu Yang asked vigilantly.
"A favor means … that you'll help me if you feel that you can fulfill my wish. But, I don't need you to force yourself if you can't." Duke Yu took a deep breath. His eyes emitted a dazzling cold light, "You mustn't refuse. I only have this little bit of hope left, and I'm still pinning it on your conscience … If you refuse, I really won't be able to stop myself from killing you! Don't forget that you've personally asked for this thing. So, if you don't want it now … "
Duke Yu angrily said, "Even that man from ten-thousand years ago wasn't as untrustworthy as you!"
"Fu * k me …" Chu Yang forced a smile. He suddenly regretted that he had been blinded by lard. And, he had listened to Sword Spirit's instigation to ask for this Heavenly Orchid …
[This is great. Duke Yu didn't give it to me when I asked for it. But, Duke Yu forced it on me when I didn't want it … And, I can't refuse it!]
Chu Yang saw Duke Yu's ashen complexion. It seemed that he would fly into a rage out of humiliation if he didn't give this Heavenly Orchid to Chu Yang today …
[But, what will I do if he asks me for help in the future if I accept it? Can I go against my conscience and say no?] Chu Yang looked at this Heavenly Orchid as if he was looking at a hot potato. He didn't have the slightest hint of a 'peerless treasure' anymore.
The Sword Spirit in Chu Yang's mind seemed to have realized that he had stirred up trouble. So, he lowered his head even though he was still drooling greedily. In fact, he looked a little embarrassed. [Sir Sword Master has become like this because of me … cough cough, I feel guilty.] Sword Spirit secretly shot a glance at the Heavenly Orchid from the corner of his eye. Then, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, [It's a good thing …]
"Do you want it or not? Do you want it or not? "Duke Yu angrily said," Give me a straight answer! You can take it if you want it. But, I will kill you if you don't want it! Isn't this a good choice? "
[Isn't this a good choice?] Chu Yang wanted to cry, [Did you f * cking 'Setting Sail Watermark' give me a choice? What kind of choice is this?]
[Duke Yu is forcing a good girl to become a prostitute in order to give away this wonderful treasure.] An ominous glint flickered in his eyes. His entire body was seething with murderous aura. He was about to lose control!
Minister Chu was dumbfounded. [I was the only honored guest a moment ago. But, I have become a lamb in the tiger's mouth at this moment.
Even my wife won't let me enter this place … But, his face immediately changed after I entered this place and was warmly entertained!]
"I … What can I do?" Minister Chu was helpless. He pinched his nose, and reluctantly said, "Well, I'll accept it …"
Young Master Chu wanted to cry as soon as he said this. [How can I be so depressed after receiving someone else's treasure?]
[What's going on here? It's obvious that I've been longing for that Heavenly Orchid. But, why does it seem like a virgin girl has been sold to a brothel, and has no choice but to accept a customer under the torture of the procuress …]
"That's my good brother!" Duke Yu's anger suddenly turned into joy. He heavily patted Chu Yang's shoulder. Then, he rubbed his hands, and said somewhat impatiently, "Do you want to pull it out yourself? Or, do you want me to pull it out for you? It's better to cut the Gordian knot with a quick knife. The sooner you take it in, the sooner I'll feel relieved. "
"You feel relieved. But, I'm starting to feel worried," Chu Yang said in a plaintive manner. He felt extremely wronged in his heart!
"You're so boring. I've obviously given you a peerless treasure that can't be found anywhere in the world. But, you feel wronged like this … This is a very strange thing!" Duke Yu had finally received a big favor from Chu Yang. So, he was very happy. In fact, he even started to joke around.
