Chapter 1440: Chapter 1436: Damaged Clothes

”There really is an artifact of the Divine Race?” Chu Zhiyuan asked eagerly.

Huang Zhengyang said, ”I remember there seems to be an artifact of the Divine Race in the Imperial Treasury.”

”What?”

”It seems to be a garment,” Huang Zhengyang said, ”but it’s a damaged garment.”

Chu Zhiyuan instantly felt disappointed.

Huang Zhengyang said, ”Although this garment is damaged, it still possesses some mysterious qualities.”

Chu Zhiyuan looked at him.

Huang Zhengyang said, ”This half garment cannot be destroyed, imperishable and indestructible.”

Chu Zhiyuan pondered, ”It’s already damaged, but can’t continue to be damaged?”

”Yes, very mysterious,” Huang Zhengyang said. ”No wonder it’s an artifact of the Divine Race, but it doesn’t have much use, after all, it’s just a damaged garment.”

”Can’t be worn?” Chu Zhiyuan asked.

Huang Zhengyang shook his head, ”Only half remains, and it’s split down the middle.”

Chu Zhiyuan contemplated.

Huang Zhengyang mused, ”The most intriguing thing is which Treasure Sword or Treasure Blade could have split this garment.”

Chu Zhiyuan hesitated, ”Such a treasure, can I take a look?”

”If it were someone else, I’m afraid not.” Huang Zhengyang smiled, ”You, Brother Chu, are different.”

Chu Zhiyuan smiled, ”The Court is also wary of me, right?”

As he spoke, he looked up at two Spirit Venerables who had already turned back.

Those two Spirit Venerables saw his location and also saw him talking to Huang Zhengyang.

Apparently, they knew his identity.

”Although the Court is wary of you, it also feels gratitude and respect.” Huang Zhengyang smiled.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled slightly, ”Brother Huang invited me over for this Lifespan Extension Pill?”

”And one more thing,” Huang Zhengyang said solemnly, ”The Court wants to ask for your help.”

Chu Zhiyuan raised an eyebrow, ”What help?”

Huang Zhengyang said, ”The Court has discovered a Cave Mansion, wants to explore it, and invites some experts to assist, including you, Brother Chu.”

Chu Zhiyuan was surprised, ”Cave Mansion? A new Cave Mansion?”

He couldn’t help but think of the East Huan Sacred Valley.

He also recalled the Cave Mansion discovered by the Profound Yin Palace that eventually vanished without a trace.

Is this new Cave Mansion related to those two places?

Huang Zhengyang nodded solemnly, ”This matter must be kept secret, cannot be disclosed.”

He turned his head and looked around.

Chu Zhiyuan asked, ”Can’t tell the Heavenly Sword Sect either?”

”Can’t tell,” Huang Zhengyang nodded affirmatively.

”Alright then,” Chu Zhiyuan said, ”Is there danger?”

Huang Zhengyang said, ”There should be danger, perilous and unpredictable. However, if you gain something in the Cave Mansion, it’s yours to keep, no need to hand it over to the Court.”

Chu Zhiyuan pondered.

Huang Zhengyang said, ”Brother Chu, you can consider it, no need to rush the decision, there’s still a few days.”

Chu Zhiyuan nodded, ”Alright, I’ll think it over carefully.”

He’s inclined not to take risks.

Even the new Cave Mansion doesn’t attract him greatly.

Huang Zhengyang said, ”I’ll find a way to get that damaged Divine Clothes.”

Chu Zhiyuan nodded with a smile.

...

Huang Zhengyang left the side courtyard and returned to the Evil Extermination Department. As soon as he entered the gate, he saw two purple-robed eunuchs.

He reluctantly followed them to the Imperial Palace, arriving outside the Diligent Governance Hall.

Then he was led into the grand hall by a purple-robed old eunuch with white mustache and brows.

Inside the wide and magnificent hall, as soon as he entered, he saw four Princes all seated, scrutinizing him.

He stepped forward and cupped his hands in salute, ”Minister greets the four Princes.”

”Huang Sizheng,” Prince Cheng asked in a deep voice, ”Did you meet Mr. Chu?”

”Yes, Prince,” Huang Zhengyang said, ”Minister just met with Mr. Chu. He has been informed of the Court’s reward, and also of the intent to invite him to assist.”

”Is he satisfied with the reward?” Prince Cheng asked.

Huang Zhengyang replied, ”Mr. Chu is very satisfied.”

”Did you inform him of the Cave Mansion?”

”Yes.”

Huang Zhengyang nodded.

He immediately noticed the four Princes exchanging looks, their expressions solemn.

He was secretly surprised.

He was following their orders, could there be a change of plan?

”Huang Sizheng, are you aware that Mr. Chu is now a Spirit Venerable?”

”Ah?!” Huang Zhengyang was greatly shocked.

He quickly regained his composure, apologetically cupped his hands, and then asked, ”Mr. Chu is already a Spirit Venerable?”

”Yes,” Prince Zhuang said, ”We just learned of this news.”

”In such a short time...” Huang Zhengyang muttered.

Then, embarrassed, he said, ”Minister lost composure.”

He truly couldn’t hold back his amazement, the impact was too overwhelming, his heart and spirit unsettled.

”We were also very surprised, didn’t expect him to become a Spirit Venerable so quickly.” Prince Zhuang sighed, ”This might be the fastest anyone has ever achieved Spirit Venerable in history.”

”Possibly.”

”Has he changed in any way?” Prince Ying asked, ”Has his attitude towards us changed?”

Huang Zhengyang shook his head, ”Minister hasn’t noticed anything unusual, oh, right, Mr. Chu wants to request an artifact of the Divine Race.”

”Artifact of the Divine Race?” All four Princes frowned.

Prince Ying said, ”Can’t be that Divine Artifact, then it’s the Divine Clothes?”

Huang Zhengyang quickly nodded, ”Mr. Chu wants to see that damaged Divine Clothes.”

Prince Zhuang said, ”The Divine Clothes, although containing mystery, are nonetheless incomplete, have no use.”

”Mr. Chu wants to take a look,” Huang Zhengyang said.

”Then let him have a look,” Prince Ying said, ”Even giving it to him is fine.”

Huang Zhengyang quickly bowed, ”Thank you, Prince.”

He could see that Prince Ying was more grateful to Chu Zhiyuan because of the Princely Heir’s assassination.

The remaining Princes were a bit different.

Even though they witnessed Chu Zhiyuan’s accurate predictions, believed he could foresee the future, without personal experience, there was still a layer missing.

The other Princes were less grateful to Chu Zhiyuan.

Prince Ying said, ”I’ll go retrieve it.”

He looked at the other three Princes.

They slowly nodded.

Huang Zhengyang bowed in salute.

Prince Ying got up from the couch, briskly stepped out of the hall.

A young purple-robed eunuch followed him.

Huang Zhengyang secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Prince Su asked, ”Huang Sizheng, do you think Mr. Chu will agree to enter the Cave Mansion?”

”This...” Huang Zhengyang hesitated, ”Prince, Minister...”

”Speak your mind,” Prince Su said, ”Just casually share your judgment, right or wrong doesn’t matter.”

Huang Zhengyang looked at the other two Princes.

They also looked at him with interest.

So he nervously said, ”Based on my understanding of Mr. Chu, he won’t take such a risk.”

”Oh—?” Prince Su said, ”An unexplored Cave Mansion could contain vast rewards and benefits, he’s not tempted?”

Huang Zhengyang said, ”Mr. Chu is not greedy, acts cautiously, prioritizes stability.”

Prince Su looked at Prince Zhuang and Prince Cheng, breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, ”Hopefully, he won’t agree.”

Prince Zhuang said, ”He is a Venerable, perhaps he won’t agree, but now that he’s a Spirit Venerable, he might agree.”

”Could we possibly take back the offer?” Prince Cheng shook his head, ”He’s a Spirit Venerable now!”

To go back on one’s word with a Spirit Venerable is akin to mocking.

It would cost us dearly.

”Actually, it’s simple,” Prince Zhuang said, ”Just say Spirit Venerables can’t enter the Cave Mansion, many Cave Mansions are inaccessible to Spirit Venerables.”

”Ultimately, paper can’t wrap fire.” Prince Cheng shook his head.

Prince Su said, ”Then say, later it became possible for Spirit Venerables to enter.”

”Hey!” Prince Cheng said dismissively, ”Mr. Chu is not foolish, it’s better to simply tell the truth.”

Huang Zhengyang kept his mouth tightly shut, not speaking a word.

Prince Zhuang said, ”For now, let’s see if he’d agree. If not, then that’s good.”

Huang Zhengyang bowed his head, remaining silent.

He already understood, the Court intends to retract the offer, not wanting Chu Zhiyuan, now a Spirit Venerable, to help with the newly discovered Cave Mansion exploration.
