"What? Does your Heavenly Tower need to track the source of your business? "
Jiang Chen responded with a smile.
"Of course not, I'm just asking. Here are ten million Days of Elixir. Jiang Brother, please have a look."
After saying that, the Great Manager waved his hand and took out a storage ring, then handed it over to Jiang Chen. With a thought, Jiang Chen opened the storage ring and sent his divine sense into it. What he saw was a mountain of pills, each of them containing one hundred percent effectiveness Heaven Elixir. There were exactly ten million pills, no more, no less.
The Heavenly Tower was indeed rich, able to take out ten million Days of Elixir without any hesitation. If it were any ordinary power, there was no way they could do this.
"It's been a pleasure doing business with you. I'll take my leave now."
After saying that, Jiang Chen stood up and walked toward the exit of the palace.
"Jiang Brother, hold on."
Seeing that Jiang Chen was about to leave, the Great Manager hastily called out to him.
"Is there anything else I can help you with, Great Manager?"
Jiang Chen turned around and asked.
"I wonder if Jiang Brother has any extra Nine Solar Holy Water? You can sell it to our Heavenly Tower, the price is negotiable."
The Great Manager said.
"I don't have any more. This is all I have. I'm in urgent need of Heaven Elixir. If I have any extra Nine Solar Holy Water, I'll definitely use it to trade."
Jiang Chen said with a smile on his face. What he said wasn't a lie, the Nine Solar Holy Water in the jade bottle was all he had left. Although the Heavenly Saint Sword and the Nine Solar Profound Art could condense Nine Solar Holy Water, it was still a process. It didn't mean that Nine Solar Holy Water was limitless and could be obtained at any time. Ever since he obtained the third part of the broken sword, he had been constantly condensing Nine Solar Holy Water. However, when he concocted the Nine Solar Les Rond Pill, he had used up a lot of Nine Solar Holy Water. This was the only amount he had left, and he used it all to exchange for the Heaven Elixir.
Of course, if Jiang Chen really wanted to exchange the Nine Solar Holy Water for the Heavenly Elixir, it would be very easy. All he needed to do was to stay in the Heavenly Tower for two days and focus on condensing the Nine Solar Holy Water.
However, it was obviously impossible for him to do that. He couldn't let anyone else know his secret. Furthermore, the greedy look in the eyes of these two managers made him feel very uncomfortable. This had also branded the Heavenly Tower as an unreliable organization in his heart.
"Since Jiang Brother needs a large amount of Heaven Elixir, I wonder if Jiang Brother is interested in the Devil Realm?"
The Great Manager changed the topic and said with a crafty look in his eyes.
"Devil Realm?"
Jiang Chen was startled. These three words had really brought him back to his memories. The Devil Realm was the gathering place of the devil race. The Devil Realm and the Western Region were neighbors, forming a separate dimension. In the past, when the devil race attempted to invade the mainland, they were suppressed by the Buddhist Sects. Jiang Chen even went to the Devil Realm alone and killed the Devil Lords of the devil race, inflicting unimaginable damage to the devil race, forcing them to retreat into the Devil Realm, never daring to invade the mainland again. He never thought he would hear this name again today.
"The Devil Realm is an important place for the devil race. Devils are extremely fierce and cruel, and it's extremely dangerous inside. May I know why Great Manager mentioned the Devil Realm?"
Tyrant stood up from his seat and asked.
"To tell you the truth, tomorrow, the disciples of the Tianyi Gate are going to sneak into the Devil Realm for training, and the Heavenly Tower will send quite a number of people there. The Heavenly Tower has business dealings with the devil sects in other regions. If Jiang Brother is interested, you can follow the people of the Heavenly Tower and sneak into the Devil Realm to kill those devils. You can sell the devil souls you find to the Heavenly Tower and exchange them for the Heaven Elixir. I'm sure we won't treat Jiang Brother badly."
The Great Manager said.
Hearing this, Jiang Chen's eyes lit up. He was a man who loved challenges, and there was no place in this world that he didn't have the courage to go.
"Little Chenzi, this old man is right. The Heavenly Tower's business has expanded beyond the Western Region. Although the Tianyi Gate can't be compared to the Great Leiyin Temple, it is still one of the top powers in the Western Region. In the Western Region, there are always geniuses and cultivators who enter the Devil Realm to train themselves, kill devils, and sell the devil souls they find to some merchants in exchange for pills and treasures they need. These merchants will then sell the devil souls to the devil sects in other regions at a high price. In the Divine Continent, devil cultivators are also a major power. In almost every region, there are devil sects, just like the four major powers of the Liang Province and the Heavenly Devil Palace in China. Only the Western Region doesn't have any devil sects, and no devil cultivators dare to enter the Western Region to train themselves. This is an important place for Buddhist sects, a place that devil cultivators fear the most. Therefore, those devil sects and devil cultivators always have business dealings with the merchants in the Western Region, buying devil souls."
Tyrant explained to Jiang Chen using his divine sense. In fact, even if Tyrant didn't explain, Jiang Chen already knew that devil souls were useless to ordinary cultivators. At most, they could be used to refine Combat Weapons. However, for devil cultivators, they were very useful. Therefore, it was reasonable for the Heavenly Tower to have business dealings with the devil sects. Furthermore, the Devil Realm was a great place for cultivators to train themselves. In the Western Region, genius disciples from some major powers or groups of cultivators would often go to the Devil Realm to kill devils.
The Great Leiyin Temple was happy to see this happen. Even their disciples would often go to the Devil Realm. After all, the devil race was the mortal enemy of mankind.
"Brother Jiang Chen, you can think about it."
Seeing that Jiang Chen was interested, the Great Manager repeated.
"If that's the case, there's no harm in going to the Devil Realm."
Jiang Chen nodded his head and agreed. For him, if he returned to the Liang Province now, with his current cultivation base, he wouldn't be able to fight against the four major powers. Therefore, he might as well go to the Devil Realm first. Furthermore, Jiang Chen had his own plans. Going to the Devil Realm to train himself might be able to help him break through to the Fifth Grade Combat King realm. With a stronger foundation, he could return to the Liang Province with a bigger shock. Not only that, he was also very interested in the devil souls of those devils. Of course, he wouldn't exchange those devil souls with the Heavenly Tower for the Heavenly Elixir. It would be better if he cooperated with the devil sect, and when he returned to the Liang Province, he might be able to make use of the Heavenly Devil Palace.
"Alright. Liu Hong, arrange a high-class VIP room for Jiang Chen. Tomorrow, he will follow the disciples of the Tianyi Gate and enter the Devil Realm together."
The Great Manager was pleasantly surprised, and quickly said to Liu Hong. In fact, Liu Hong had a puzzled look on his face, because he had no idea why the Great Manager would be so happy all of a sudden. Normally, since Jiang Chen had run out of Nine Solar Holy Water, there was no need for the Great Manager to be so polite. Even if the Heavenly Tower wanted a huge amount of devil souls, they wouldn't be short of Jiang Chen. After all, how many devils could a Fourth Grade Combat King kill?
However, Liu Hong could only obey the Great Manager's words. He gestured to Jiang Chen and said, "Young master Jiang, this way please."
"En."
Jiang Chen nodded his head, then strode out of the palace.
"Hey, Great Manager, why don't you find this monk a nice girl to talk about life with?"
Tyrant said to Liu Hong. However, before he could finish his words, Jiang Chen and Tan Lang had already disappeared from his sight. It seemed like they were in a hurry to cut ties with him.
"Don't worry, Great Master. I guarantee you'll be satisfied."
Liu Hong said with a smile on his face, as if he understood Tyrant's intention.
After Jiang Chen and the other two left, the Great Manager's expression immediately changed. He was still smiling, but it was a sinister smile.
"Great Elder, I'm sure that guy still has some extra Nine Solar Holy Water with him. How could a young man like him have so much Nine Solar Holy Water?"
The Second Elder with a scar on his face said.
"If it were you, would you be willing to exchange so much Nine Solar Holy Water for the Heavenly Elixir?"
The Great Manager asked.
"Of course not. Nine Solar Holy Water is extremely precious. Who would take it out so easily, let alone so much of it?"
The Second Manager shook his head.
"But, this guy actually took out so much Nine Solar Holy Water to exchange for ten million Heavenly Elixir. This can only mean one thing, this amount of Nine Solar Holy Water is nothing to him. He must have more Nine Solar Holy Water, and even if he doesn't, he knows where to get it. That's why I thought of a way to keep him here."
The Great Manager said.
"Nine Solar Holy Water is a real treasure. If we can obtain a large amount of it, it would bring unimaginable benefits to our Tianyi Gate. Actually, there's no need for you to keep him here. You should have just captured him and forced him to hand over all his Nine Solar Holy Water."
The Second Elder's words sounded extremely sinister.
"Nonsense! Our Heavenly Tower is known as the living sign, and we've never done something like this before. If this news were to spread out, who would dare to do business with us in the future?"
The Great Manager scolded.
"Why don't you let me kill them myself? No one will know about it, and no one will know about it."
The Second Elder stretched out his hand and drew a line across his neck, making a gesture of killing.
"No, the Heavenly Tower can never do something like this. If you ruin our reputation, you won't be able to bear the responsibility."
The Great Manager immediately rejected the suggestion.
"If that's the case, why did you keep him here, and even invited him to join the expedition to the Devil Realm? I'm sure you have a plan in mind."
The Second Manager looked at the Great Manager. He knew the Great Manager too well. This man was a very shrewd man, otherwise, he wouldn't have his current status.
"Of course, we won't do it ourselves, but we can let the disciples of Tianyi Gate do it. Once they enter the Devil Realm, everything that happens there will have nothing to do with the Heavenly Tower. Among the disciples of Tianyi Gate who are going to the Devil Realm, there are some formidable Combat King geniuses. We can just leave this Jiang Chen and the Nine Solar Holy Water to them."
A faint smile emerged on the Great Manager's face. In his eyes, Jiang Chen was just a Fourth Grade Combat King, and was nothing to worry about. As long as Jiang Chen agreed to enter the Devil Realm with the disciples of Tianyi Gate, he would be at the mercy of those geniuses of Tianyi Gate.
"Brilliant! Great Manager, this is a brilliant move! Just let the disciples of your sect deal with this man, and it will have nothing to do with the Heavenly Tower. At that point of time, not only will we be able to get the Nine Solar Holy Water from him, we can also force him to tell us where it came from.
