Ziyun's gaze remained on Jianchen's face the entire time. When she saw Jianchen's expression change drastically, she immediately thought of something and asked, "Jianchen, do you know something about Xiao Man? If you do, may I ask if you can tell me a little? I watched Xiao Man grow up after all. I don't want anything to happen to her. "
"If I've guessed correctly, Xiao Man's ancestor should be the master of the Poseidon Palace. It's also because of Xiao Man's special bloodline that she was able to receive the protection of the palace," Jianchen said. He did not hide this from Ziyun.
"What? How is that possible …" Ziyun was stunned. Disbelief filled her face.
"Of course, that's just my personal guess. It's also possible that I've guessed wrongly, and the truth of the matter might not be what I imagine it to be," said Jian Chen. Although that was what he said, he was already seventy percent certain about his guess.
Jianchen and Ziyun's conversation ended very soon. After separating from Ziyun, he stood at the entrance of the Anatta Tower all by himself. He stared at the lava outside through the damaged door and sank into his thoughts.
The fact that Xiao Man was the descendant of the master of the Poseidon Palace had indeed taken him by surprise. He had no idea how he should treat Xiao Man next.
Should he just leave Xiao Man in the Poseidon Palace and not care about her?
Or should he assist Xiao Man and help her complete the process of accepting the master of the Poseidon Palace?
But speaking of which, he'd only met Xiao Man and Zi Yun by chance, and they didn't have a deep relationship with each other. He had only helped Xiao Man back on the spatial battleship because he missed Xiao Ling. He saw Xiao Ling's figure on Xiao Man, which was why he helped her.
But now, Xiao Man had grown up. She had become a slender woman, no longer resembling Xiao Ling. Naturally, Jianchen could not see any resemblance of Xiao Ling in her.
As a result, Jianchen believed that even if he left Xiao Man and Ziyun in the Poseidon Palace and left them to fend for themselves, he would have a clear conscience. He would not have let anyone down.
This was because he did not owe Xiao Man and Ziyun anything. On the contrary, he had assisted them twice. Even if he owed someone, it would be Xiao Man and Ziyun who owed him.
However, if he continued to help them and assisted Xiao Man in obtaining the master of the Poseidon Palace, then Jianchen knew exactly how difficult and bumpy the road ahead would be. If they were close friends that he had a close relationship with, then he would not hesitate even if he had to go through a mountain of blades or an ocean of flames.
However, he had only met Ziyun and Xiao Man by chance. They did not have a close relationship, and they could not even be considered as the most basic of friends. Was it worth taking this risk for them?
For a moment, Jianchen was slightly hesitant. He did not know how to deal with the matter of Xiao Man.
"Jianchen, please help us." At this moment, Ziyun and Xiao Man arrived before Jianchen and knelt together.
"What are you doing?" This scene caused Jianchen to frown. With a wave of his hand, he used a gentle force to lift Xiao Man and Ziyun up.
"Jianchen, I know that it's very difficult for me to help Xiao Man obtain the Poseidon Palace and take back the ancestor's legacy with my strength. This is because the supreme Divine King outside will definitely interfere. Even if Xiao Man is protected by the Poseidon Palace, she might not be truly safe. Perhaps there are people who possess ancient secret techniques that can ignore the protective powers of the Poseidon Palace and injure Xiao Man. However, I have no way of resisting them at all. As a result, Ziyun begs Jianchen to help Xiao Man. "Ziyun looked at Jianchen with a pleading gaze.
Ziyun gritted her teeth when she saw how Jianchen remained silent. As if she had made up her mind, she made up her mind and said, "Jianchen, if you can help Xiao Man obtain the Poseidon Palace, Ziyun will be yours from today onwards." With that, Ziyun blushed slightly, but she stared at Jianchen closely as if she wanted to see what he was thinking from Jianchen's face.
To Ziyun's disappointment, she could only see surprise on Jianchen's face. It was as if her offer of marriage did not move Jianchen at all.
It had to be mentioned that Ziyun's appearance was quite extraordinary. It was enough to make the birds alight and the beasts alight. Although she was not as beautiful as Shangguan Mu 'er, she was still stunning. Unfortunately, Jianchen was not a person who lusted after beauty, so her seduction was naturally useless.
"Brother Jianchen, if you help me obtain the Poseidon Palace successfully, I'll give you all the legacies and heavenly resources in there. I just need to take back the Poseidon Palace and take back the things that belong to my ancestor. I can't let it end up in the hands of outsiders," at this moment, Xiao Man raised her head and said bravely. Determination filled her face.
A gleam of light flashed through Jianchen's eyes. All the legacies and heavenly resources in the Poseidon Palace was an unimaginable amount of resources. It was indeed fatally tempting to him.
"Let's ignore the heavenly resources for now. Just the legacies of the Primordial realm here are enough for the Tianyuan family to develop rapidly …" The light in Jianchen's eyes flickered as he thought quickly. After a while of thought, he said, "Alright. Xiao Man, remember what you said. If I help you take back the things that your ancestor left behind, all the heavenly resources and legacies in the Poseidon Palace will belong to me."
Xiao Man's conditions were enough for Jianchen to take a risk.
Although the Poseidon Palace had tempted Jianchen before, he understood that it was just a hot potato to him.
Moreover, the descendant of the master of the Poseidon Palace was here. How could anyone else get their hands on it?
Xiao Man immediately became overjoyed when she saw Jianchen agree. She said, "Alright, alright. However, brother Jianchen, the legacies at the top should have been left behind by my ancestor, so I can't give you the three legacies there. The rest will go to brother Jianchen."
"Alright, it's settled then." Jianchen agreed without any hesitation. He was not interested in the legacies of Grand Primes because they were useless to him. As long as he could obtain the legacies of Chaotic Primes and Infinite Primes, it would be enough for the Tianyuan family.
.....
In an extremely remote and inconspicuous corner on the eighth floor of the Poseidon Palace, a head covered in boiling lava slowly emerged from the lava silently.
As the head was covered in lava and only a single head had emerged, it seemed extremely well-hidden in the vast sea of lava. It seemed to have fused with the lava, making it very difficult to discover its existence.
At this moment, the head's eyes suddenly snapped open. What kind of eyes were they? They flickered with cold light, and they were as sharp as swords. No one dared to look at them directly.
This pair of eyes that were as sharp as swords first observed its surroundings with vigilance. After confirming that there was no one around, this head that seemed to have fused with the lava began to slowly grow taller.
All of this was carried out silently, without the slightest movement. Even the thick lava did not produce the slightest ripple. It really looked like a ghost.
In the blink of an eye, a slender person stood on the lava silently.
At a closer glance, this person did not possess any protective items. Instead, he completely used his tough body to resist the terrifying heat of the lava. The terrifying lava that could cause the expressions of countless supreme Godkings to change and even Primordial realm experts to avoid seemed to pose no threat to him at all.
Fortunately, there was no one in the surroundings, or it would definitely cause a great disturbance in the Poseidon Palace.
To no surprise, the person who emerged from the lava was Jianchen.
Jianchen waved his hand, and a fist-sized, damaged tower suddenly flew out from the lava and landed in his hand. He glanced at the depths of the lava in fear and let out a sigh of relief inside. He thought, "Fortunately, the lizard didn't follow me. It looks like it won't leave the bottom of the lava so easily. It's exactly because of that that no one has discovered its existence."
