In front of the valley.
After handing Gong Yuyuan's storage bracelet to Víctor, Yu Haoran lifted his head to look at Zhai Xing and the other three and spoke in a helpless tone.
"Senior Zhai Xing, I was the one who destroyed Gong Yuyuan's teleportation amulet and he was killed by my pet beast. I don't think this should continue to be a condition, right?"
"Of course!" Zhai Xing nodded and replied in a similarly helpless manner.
Originally, capturing the Martial King Gong Yuyuan alive could be said to be the fastest and easiest condition to complete among Yu Haoran's conditions.
However, Zhai Xing had reacted too slowly and could only watch helplessly as he lost this opportunity. How could he not feel depressed and helpless?
"Senior Zhai Xing, my first condition is that I hope the four of you can accompany me into the Star Tomb and help me obtain one of the treasures in the tomb."
Since the first condition was no longer valid, Yu Haoran could only raise the second condition as the first condition.
"No problem!"
In the face of Yu Haoran's first condition, Zhai Xing did not communicate with Wu San and the other two and immediately nodded in agreement.
After all, even without Yu Haoran's conditions, they would still enter the Star Tomb.
Helping him obtain the treasures in the tomb was only a matter of convenience. There was no need to discuss it with Wu San and the others.
"The second condition is that after obtaining the treasures in the Star Tomb, I need the four of you to accompany me to Xianyang City and help me kill someone," Yu Haoran said with a murderous look as he recalled how he had been forced to leave Xianyang City by Qin Baijun.
Actually, the first condition could not be considered a condition. It should be described as a form of consideration, a method to repay the kindness of his past life.
Due to his experience in the Star Tomb in his past life, he could help Zhai Xing and the other three avoid many traps and dangers in the tomb.
The real condition, which was also the real test for Zhai Xing and the other three, was the second condition.
"Brother Yu, may I know who you want to kill?"
Zhai Xing recalled the rumors he had heard about Yu Haoran and knew that he especially liked to offend powerful and influential people with deep backgrounds.
Therefore, Zhai Xing did not rashly agree to the conditions he had just proposed. Instead, he wanted to find out more about it before making a decision.
"The Great Emperor Qin's Kingdom's Imperial Clan's Palace Chief, Qin Bai Jun, whose cultivation has reached the level of a Martial Honorable!" Yu Haoran said through gritted teeth.
When Zhai Xing heard Yu Haoran say that the target of his assassination was actually the quasi-Martial Saint Qin Baijun, he could not help but speak with a bitter smile as he sucked in a breath of cold air.
"Fellow Daoist Yu, if we don't eliminate the hidden dangers in our bodies for now, we can still live for another one hundred and eighty years. But if we accompany you to Xian Yang City to kill someone, I'm afraid we will immediately be killed by Qin Baijun."
At this point, Zhai Xing looked at Yu Haoran and asked with a rather gloomy expression.
"Fellow Daoist Yu, what do you think we should do?"
"Senior Zhai Xing, I'm very sorry. I didn't make myself clear just now."
When he heard Zhai Xing's gloomy question, Yu Haoran immediately realized that his conditions had been too general and had caused Zhai Xing to misunderstand. He hurriedly explained.
"After we reach Xian Yang City, the four of you don't have to attack Qin Baijun. You only have to stop Qin Baijun's subordinates and prevent them from disturbing the time when I'm activating the treasure's power. Then, you can deal a fatal blow to Qin Baijun."
When they heard Yu Haoran's further explanation, Zhai Xing and the other three looked at each other and realized that their eyes were filled with some excitement and a trace of fear.
When he saw Zhai Xing and the other three using their eyes to communicate, Yu Haoran recalled that they had been Loose Cultivators and were most afraid of offending organizations with deep backgrounds.
"Senior Zhai Xing, I'm sure you know about the matter between me and Princess Ling Fei."
"If it weren't for the fact that Qin Baijun of the Imperial Clan Court wanted to manipulate me, I would have successfully completed my engagement ceremony with Princess Ling Fei."
"Therefore, I've returned to Xian Yang City this time to kill Qin Baijun and take revenge. I also intend to complete my engagement ceremony with Princess Ling Fei."
"As for this, the Emperor Qin of the Great Emperor Qin Kingdom will not object or stop me."
"Fellow Daoist Yu, we agree to your second condition!"
Although Yu Haoran's explanation had not given any guarantees of safety after the event, if he could successfully complete his engagement ceremony with Princess Ling Fei, it meant that his grudge with Qin Baijun was a personal one. After the event, Emperor Qin would not send experts to take revenge.
Since he would not suffer any revenge, he did not have to worry too much.
Therefore, Zhai Xing nodded in agreement after communicating with Five Scatter and the others through Divine Consciousness.
"Thank you, Senior!"
As a treasure that could defeat and kill a Quasi-Martial Honorable, a certain amount of preparation time was needed to successfully activate the treasure's power.
He had a way to immobilize Qin Baijun for a certain period of time, but he could not stop the Martial Saints from the Imperial Clan Court.
As for his Master, Feng Qingyun, he was completely disappointed and did not intend to ask him for help.
Therefore, he could only ask Zhai Xing and the other three to have the strength to challenge those of a higher rank and to be able to resist the enemy's attack for a short period of time.
"The third condition is that the four of you, including Senior Bi Xue, swear by the Heavenly Way that you will never harm me, now or in the future. Otherwise, your Spiritual Souls will fall into hell forever."
In his previous life, he had been able to form such a deep friendship with Zhai Xing and the other four because they were birds of a feather and also because of fate.
In this life, his fate had changed dramatically. Yu Haoran was not sure if he could still maintain his friendship with Zhai Xing and the other four.
Therefore, he had used the Heavenly Way's rules to avoid the possibility of a falling out in the future.
After discussing with each other using their Divine Senses, Zhai Xing finally nodded on behalf of Five Scattershot and the other four.
"If Yu Haoran can help me, Zhai Xing, successfully overcome the Heart Tribulation of the Quasi-Martial Honorable Realm, then I, Zhai Xing, swear by the Heavenly Way's rules that I will never harm Yu Haoran, now or in the future."
"If I break my oath, my Spiritual Souls will fall into hell forever!"
"…!"
"…!"
"…!"
After Zhai Xing swore by the Heavenly Way's rules, Five Scattershot, Hundred Flowers, and Bing Shuang swore their oaths.
Just as Bing Shuang swore, there was a sudden violent tremor in the valley.
As the valley shook violently, although it could not be seen with the naked eye, one could clearly feel that the power of the stars in the sky was being forcefully drawn down by a strong suction force from the depths of the valley.
"Senior Zhai Xing, when the Star Tomb is opened, it will draw a large amount of rich and pure power of the stars into the tomb."
"Since you are using the power of the stars to cultivate, then take this opportunity to break through your current rank!"
After feeling the pure power of the stars in the valley, Yu Haoran quickly reminded him.
"Brother Yu, thank you for the reminder!"
