"Snatch your Hellfire Mirror?" Outer King frowned.
"Exactly." Hong Tian City Lord nodded hurriedly.
The Outer King looked at Cheng Yu and the others. He saw that they had a tranquil expression without any fluctuations. It was as if the person Hong Tian was talking about wasn't them.
"Do you think I'll believe you?" Outer King looked at Hong Tian and said in a low voice.
Of course, he knew about the Hellfire Mirror in Hong Tian's hand. It was indeed a pretty good treasure. However, even though it was pretty good, it shouldn't be enough to attract Cheng Yu and the others to snatch it away.
Why?
Because just the immortal herbs Cheng Yu had given him had already far surpassed the value of the Hellfire Mirror.
Furthermore, he didn't believe that Cheng Yu was someone who didn't know what was good or bad. It was impossible for Cheng Yu to not be able to tell the value of this immortal herb. Otherwise, he would definitely not present such a precious thing to him.
He also didn't believe that Cheng Yu was able to possess a 30,000 years old immortal herb. He definitely had a lot of other precious items in his hands. Why would he care about such a treasure?
"Outer King, I'm not lying to you. I'm telling the truth. They really came for my Dharma treasure!" Seeing that the Outer King's expression was not so good, the Hong Tian City Master's face immediately turned pale. Cold sweat trickled down his forehead as he hurriedly explained.
"Shut up! You still dare to quibble? "Outer King said angrily.
"Outer King, please calm down. Actually, what City Master Hong Tian said isn't wrong!" It was at this moment, Cheng Yu took the initiative to speak.
"Oh? Could it be that Fellow Daoist is really here for the Hong Tian Treasure? "Outer King looked at Cheng Yu suspiciously.
Hearing Cheng Yu's words, even Hong Tian City Lord and Great Elder were surprised. They had never expected that Cheng Yu would actually take the initiative to admit this matter.
The two of them heaved a sigh of relief. At least this was enough to prove that Hong Tian was not lying.
"Actually, it's very simple. I've heard that the City Lord of Hong Tian City has a mirror-shaped magic treasure, and I happened to have such a magic treasure when I was young.
Sometimes, people would feel nostalgic. So, I went to Hongyu City to pay a visit to the City Lord, hoping that he could let me have a look at that magic treasure.
If it really is the magic treasure I once had, I can take a look at it again to relieve my pain of nostalgia. If that magic treasure is not the same magic treasure that I used to have, although I will feel a little regretful, I will consider it as making friends with City Lord Hong Tian.
However, there seems to have been a misunderstanding. I never intended to snatch City Lord Hongtian's magic treasure. I just wanted to take a look. If I didn't remember wrongly, I should have told City Lord Hong Tian before right? "Cheng Yu explained to everyone.
"I … That's what you say, but who knows what you're thinking. Don't tell me you came all the way here just to take a look at the magic treasure in my hands?
Besides, who knows if you really had this magic treasure in the past. When the time comes, it doesn't matter if you say yes or no. Isn't it all based on your own words?
What if you say that this magic treasure was once owned by you? Wouldn't you take it away again? "Hong Tian City Lord's face turned red as he retorted.
Cheng Yu had indeed told him that he only wanted to take a look at the treasure. However, this kind of thing was simply too ridiculous. Therefore, he would never believe that Cheng Yu only wanted to take a look at the treasure before leaving. Cheng Yu's main purpose was to snatch away the treasure in his hands.
"Then why did you take the treasure that they offered to me?" The Outer Monarch seemed to have believed Hong Tian's words. However, he asked another question that concerned him the most.
"Outer Monarch, I also feel that what they said is very hard to believe. As for the treasure, you have also watched Hong Tian grow up. You should know him very well. He has always been very respectful to Outer Monarch. I believe that he would never embezzle the treasure that was offered to Outer Monarch. Furthermore, he doesn't have the guts to do so. "The Great Elder explained to the Outer Monarch.
"That's right! Outer Monarch, I really didn't take any treasure from them. It's obvious that they are trying to deceive you! "Hong Tian said with grievance.
"This matter is really fabricated by you?" The Outer Monarch once again turned his gaze to Cheng Yu. However, this time, his gaze had become a lot sharper.
Heavenly Moon Outer Monarch didn't wish for others to deceive him, even if it was his own people. Therefore, it was needless to say for an outsider like Cheng Yu.
"Outer Monarch, this matter is indeed fabricated out of thin air." Cheng Yu didn't quibble and immediately admitted it.
However, when he saw the Outer Monarch was about to speak, he spoke again. "However, I am also helpless. If I didn't say it like this, that mountain gate guard would never believe that I am here to present the treasure to Outer Monarch. I hope that Outer Monarch can investigate this matter properly."
"Since it's like this, are you here to present the treasure to me or for Hong Tian's treasure?" Outer Monarch looked at Cheng Yu and asked in a deep voice.
"Both. The reason why I came to visit City Lord Hong Tian is because of these two matters. In the end, it caused City Lord Hong Tian to misunderstand. This is also my fault. Here, I will apologize to City Lord Hong Tian. Take this as my apology to City Lord Hong Tian! " Cheng Yu spoke as he took out a jade box that was exactly the same as the one he had presented to the Outer Monarch and passed it to City Lord Hong Tian.
"This …" Originally, City Lord Hong Tian was very dissatisfied with Cheng Yu. However, he didn't expect Cheng Yu to be so easy to talk to. Furthermore, he even gave him a gift as an apology.
Of course, he didn't care too much about this apology. However, he still wanted to take a look at the jade box.
"Ah! This is … "It would have been fine if he had not seen it, but he was completely stunned by what he saw.
"This …" The Great Elder also came over to take a look. Immediately, he was shocked speechless.
As for Outer Monarch, he didn't see what was inside the jade box. However, when he saw the expression of the father and son duo, he could basically guess what was inside the jade box.
However, he still wanted to confirm it. After all, a 30,000-year-old immortal spiritual herb wasn't something that could be taken out casually, let alone given away so easily.
However, when he walked over and saw the item inside, even though he already knew what it was, he was still deeply shocked when he saw the 30,000-year-old immortal spiritual herb.
Cheng Yu had actually taken out another 30,000-year-old immortal spiritual herb.
"Father, this … is this an immortal spiritual herb?" Hong Tian City Lord regained his senses and asked in disbelief.
"This is indeed an immortal spiritual herb. Furthermore, it's 30,000-year-old. Fellow cultivator, are you really planning to give it away? "The Great Elder nodded. He also didn't dare to believe Cheng Yu's actions.
If a 30,000-year-old immortal spiritual herb were to be placed in the Cultivation World, it would probably cause countless Crossing Tribulation Realm cultivators to kill each other. This was because this item was too important to a Crossing Tribulation Realm cultivator.
However, Cheng Yu had actually given it away so casually.
Although it was an apology, what did Cheng Yu do wrong in this matter? Even if he had done something wrong, wasn't it a bit too much to take such a precious treasure as an apology?
In fact, not only the trio from Outer Moon Dynasty, even Elder Fang and the rest who followed behind Cheng Yu were also shocked.
At this moment, they finally understood why Outer Moon Monarch would personally welcome them. It turned out that their young master had actually taken out such a precious item.
Let alone Outer Moon Monarch, at this moment, even they were somewhat envious of Hong Tian City Lord.
As Cheng Yu's followers, Cheng Yu had never given them such a precious item before.
"Since it's an apology, I naturally can't be stingy. I wonder if Hong Tian City Lord is willing to accept my apology?" Cheng Yu smiled at Hong Tian City Lord.
"Yes … Of course!" Hong Tian City Lord naturally understood the value of this 30,000-year-old immortal spiritual herb.
At this moment, when he held the jade box, his hands couldn't help but tremble.
Obtaining such a treasure for no reason, even if Cheng Yu had really done something to him, he felt that he could be forgiven. Besides, he didn't seem to have suffered any loss!
"Since it's like this, can Hong Tian City Lord let me have a look at your treasure now?" Cheng Yu seized the opportunity to ask.
Although he had lost another 30,000-year-old immortal spiritual herb, it was still very important to him.
Because of this matter, Heavenly Moon Monarch and the others had obviously become suspicious of their identity and purpose of coming here. They had even started to reject them.
Therefore, he purposely took out a 30,000-year-old immortal spiritual herb as an apology to Hong Tian City Lord. His purpose was to give them the biggest shock, to let them see how strong their capital was.
The Great Elder and Hong Tian City Lord definitely didn't know, but Heavenly Moon Monarch was very clear. In addition to this immortal spiritual herb, he had already taken out two 30,000-year-old immortal spiritual herbs.
Cheng Yu believed that at this moment, Heavenly Moon Monarch's position in his heart must be constantly rising.
Of course, with such a big gift, he could also use this opportunity to achieve his first goal.
"This …" But when it came to the treasure, Hong Tian City Lord was still somewhat hesitant.
Cheng Yu's apology gift was naturally precious, but it didn't mean that he was willing to exchange his treasure with Cheng Yu.
If it was possible, he hoped that he could obtain the immortal herbs and magic treasures as well.
"Since this fellow daoist wants to see your magic treasure, then you can let him have a look. Didn't fellow daoist just say that he just wants to take a look? It's not like he wants to take it away!" The Great Elder was much smarter.
Cheng Yu had given such a big gift. Although it wasn't for him, Hong Tian was his son. Even if he couldn't obtain this thing, to be able to see his son achieve something, why wouldn't he be happy?
Furthermore, this sentence seemed to be simple and generous, but in reality, it was also a reminder to Cheng Yu.
This treasure can only be shown to him, not given to him.
In this way, he also had a way out. If Cheng Yu really wanted to snatch it, then Cheng Yu would be in the wrong.
Besides, with him and Heavenly Moon Monarch here, he really didn't believe that Cheng Yu would dare to snatch the treasure away.
