Purple Mist Dao Master

Impossible to negotiate!

Lu Yuru shook her head, was she asking for an Essence Stone?

No!

She wanted to use the Fourth-Rank 'Sun and Moon Colored Glaze Bottle' to exchange for Yan Chuan's 'Dust-covered Bright Pearl' which is the 'Fifth-Rank Gathering Treasure Basin'. She aimed to take advantage of the situation and make a huge profit.

With a Fifth-Rank Treasure in hand, why worry about Essence Stones?

Whether keeping it for personal use or selling it, it would yield returns dozens or even hundreds of times greater than a Fourth-Rank exotic treasure.

Lu Yuru spoke with genuine earnestness, she 'confessed': "I indeed need Essence Stones, but the value of a Fourth-Rank Treasure, Brother Yan, you know it well. Trading a Treasure for Essence Stones is too wasteful, I truly cannot do it. If Brother Yan is interested, I will trade this 'Sun and Moon Colored Glaze Bottle' for the 'Gathering Treasure Basin', Fourth-Rank for Fourth-Rank, each gets what they need, what say you, Brother Yan?"

Lu Yuru lowered the price.

Not interested in Absolute Skills, only interested in the Gathering Treasure Basin!

Yan Chuan looked at Lu Yuru, if he hadn't been sure that he alone knew the original 'Fourth-Rank Gathering Treasure Basin' had long been enhanced to 'Fifth-Rank', if he hadn't known that this Lu Yuru only glimpsed the 'Gathering Treasure Basin' hastily at first, Yan Chuan would have really suspected if this Lu Yuru knew the 'Gathering Treasure Basin's' specifics and intended to trick him!

"Should not be possible."

Yan Chuan silently shook his head.

He confirmed Lu Yuru only took a glance at the 'Gathering Treasure Basin', such an exotic treasure, as long as it's not refined, even scrutinizing it in hand may not reveal its grade, not to mention just a glance.

"Should be coincidence."

Yan Chuan smiled and refused clearly: "I really won't trade."

...

"It's bad!"

"This Yan Chuan certainly knows the 'Gathering Treasure Basin' he holds is Fifth-Rank, not Fourth-Rank, or else he wouldn't be so firm!"

Lu Yuru's heart sank to the bottom.

Back in mid-July, when she confirmed the 'Gathering Treasure Basin' Yan Chuan possessed appeared to be Fourth-Rank but was actually a Fifth-Rank Treasure, Lu Yuru was ecstatic and envious.

In the following three months, others were mining at Lu Ti Mountain, or gathering magic in Heavenly Ladder City, only she traveled throughout the surrounding ten-plus cities, with her pair of "Wisdom Eyes", she truly found a Fourth-Rank exotic treasure 'Sun and Moon Colored Glaze Bottle'.

Lu Yuru was overjoyed, with the Treasure in hand, she rushed back to Tan Valley Royal City non-stop, to exchange for Yan Chuan's 'Gathering Treasure Basin', to avoid long nights with many dreams.

But unexpectedly—

Yan Chuan wasn't interested at all.

"Why?"

Lu Yuru thought it over: "It can only be that Yan Chuan already discovered the 'Gathering Treasure Basin' is not Fourth-Rank, but Fifth-Rank."

In that case, what should she do next?

Threaten Yan Chuan with the truth about the Fifth-Rank Gathering Treasure Basin?

The court rewarded Yan Chuan only with a 'Fourth-Rank Gathering Treasure Basin', but the one in Yan Chuan's hand is Fifth-Rank. If this news were leaked to the court, even if simply told, the court would definitely regret it, and Innate Grandmasters wouldn't be able to restrain themselves from taking action.

Threaten Yan Chuan!

Share the benefit!

This is one path.

But this way, it would undoubtedly mean a complete fallout with Yan Chuan, who has unlimited potential for hostility, while also putting her own safety at risk.

"If I really do this, the 'Sun and Moon Colored Glaze Bottle' I just acquired might just be a gift for Yan Chuan."

"I would become a Child delivering treasures!"

This won't do!

Then what to do?

Lu Yuru pondered deeply.

...

Yan Chuan was indeed interested in Lu Yuru's 'Sun and Moon Colored Glaze Bottle'.

This Fourth-Rank exotic treasure in Lu Yuru's possession not only produced 'Sun Essence Pure Fire' and 'Moonlight Jade Dew' extremely slowly, but the effects of 'Sun Essence Pure Fire' and 'Moonlight Jade Dew' were just passable, useful for Innate Grandmasters, but not much, helpful for Postnatal, Limit-breaking, but due to the small quantity, unable to make a decisive impact.

Overall, a chicken rib.

But if given to Yan Chuan—

"I would forcibly enhance it to Fifth-Rank, the speed of 'Sun Essence Pure Fire' and 'Moonlight Jade Dew' production would be faster, the effects stronger, even Innate Grandmasters would crave it!"

That would be a true Treasure!

However, as they say, a gentleman loves wealth righteously. If the 'Sun and Moon Colored Glaze Bottle' were in the hands of an Alien Race, each serving their master, Yan Chuan would take it without burden, but since it belongs to Lu Yuru, Yan Chuan, despite his covetousness and anticipation for the enhanced 'Fifth-Rank Sun and Moon Colored Glaze Bottle', he could still control his desire, not thinking further.

As for mutual benefit—

If Yan Chuan were to use helping Lu Yuru enhance the 'Sun and Moon Colored Glaze Bottle' to Fifth-Rank as a bargaining chip, asking to split the production of the 'Fifth-Rank Sun and Moon Colored Glaze Bottle' with Lu Yuru, Lu Yuru would be ecstatic, definitely not refusing.

But that way, Yan Chuan's ability to enhance Treasures would become known, which is not good, too dangerous.

Mutual benefit?

No, no, no!

For Yan Chuan, such cooperation would be too risky!

"Lu Yuru is also interested in my Absolute Skills."

"Perhaps."

"Opportunities may arise later."

...

Lu Yuru was just a small interlude.

After the brief interlude.

The hour of Hai had passed.

October 20th finally arrived, the 'King City Competition' kicked off today, Yan Chuan, Wang Zhengyi, Wang Ge, Ma Hongniang missing one, unable to form a team, unable to register, unable to participate in the first ten-day tournament, they could only wait.

However, not being able to compete doesn't matter.

"They can spectate!"

"Being able to open the live stream room is fine!"

Yan Chuan stepped into the Earth Gate with everyone, entering into Heavenly Ladder City, just upon entering, images related to the 'King City Competition' emerged, this time, not only Martial Artists with over 700 points in the Heavenly Ladder City could see, but those below 700 points could also see.

Those below 700 points couldn't compete but could watch.

"Indeed, there are additional spectating options."

Yan Chuan saw the 'Heavenly Ladder' text, images emerging, the big screen scrolling, leading off with the 'Mo Yin Continent's Royal City Competition' Free Viewing Zone, once inside, one could freely watch any ongoing match, followed by the 'Mo Yin Official Live Stream Room', then further down were various personal live stream rooms, ranked according to the number of viewers—
