The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 1792: Chapter 1792: Tripping Up

The Chaos Green Lotus is not an item used for cultivation, but because it is extremely rare, its value is certainly not low. Moreover, within this universe, there may be only this one Chaos Green Lotus left in Mao Wang’s possession.

Therefore, even if Mao Wang asks for an astronomical price, Jing Yan will not haggle. This is a treasure used to save Mo Ku’s life, and cannot be measured by some resources.

”Supreme Jing Yan, I’ve heard of your great name before, truly well-known,” Mao Wang bowed to Jing Yan again.

”Daoist Mao Wang, you flatter me,” Jing Yan was unpretentious.

”I know Supreme Jing Yan is in urgent need of the Chaos Green Lotus, but I only have one Chaos Green Lotus.” Mao Wang spoke with some hesitation.

”Daoist Mao Wang, please rest assured. Although my cultivation time is not long, my luck has always been good, and there’s definitely no problem with resources. Just name your price,” Jing Yan immediately said.

The resources Jing Yan possesses are, of course, astronomical in number. Not to mention the distant past, just the resources obtained from killing Jin Haiwang and five other High-level Supremes in the Fire Worship World are unimaginably numerous. Some of these resources were distributed to Fu Qu and Shiyang Supreme, but the majority belong to Jing Yan.

”Supreme Jing Yan misunderstood me. It’s not that I believe Supreme Jing Yan cannot offer resources equivalent to the Chaos Green Lotus. Rather, I also need the Chaos Green Lotus for my own use. Therefore, I cannot sell the Chaos Green Lotus to you,” Mao Wang’s face turned somewhat pale, and he spoke with a bowed body, full of apology.

”What did you say?” Jing Yan still thought he heard incorrectly.

Mao Wang has changed his mind about selling the Chaos Green Lotus?

What is the situation?

Before coming to the Illusion World, Jing Yan specifically used a super communication tool to send a message to Mao Wang. At that time, Mao Wang clearly agreed to sell the Chaos Green Lotus to him. Now, only a few decades have passed, and he suddenly changes his mind? Moreover, he claims that he needs to use the Chaos Green Lotus himself, which is undoubtedly an excuse that Jing Yan cannot believe.

”Supreme Jing Yan, I am truly sorry. I really cannot sell you this Chaos Green Lotus, please forgive me,” Mao Wang lowered his head, not daring to meet Jing Yan’s eyes.

”Supreme Jing Yan, I know you came all the way from Sky Creation City to Illusion World just for the Chaos Green Lotus. This round trip has delayed several decades, or even a hundred years, resulting in significant loss. I am also willing to compensate Supreme Jing Yan for the loss. Aside from the Chaos Green Lotus, all my other resources can be offered as recompense to Supreme Jing Yan,” Mao Wang said, handing over his Personal Space.

Jing Yan hesitated!

Judging by Mao Wang’s appearance, it did not seem like he was deliberately playing tricks on him. But why did he suddenly change his attitude?

Could it be that he really has some beloved person whose physical body and Divine Soul are severely damaged recently and needs the Chaos Green Lotus?

But even if that’s true, could Mao Wang find a Holy Alchemist to help reconstruct the physical body? Holy Alchemists are already rare in the Chaos Universe, and those capable of using Chaos Green Lotus to reconstruct life’s physical body are probably even rarer.

What is going on with Mao Wang?

Jing Yan looked at Mao Wang, feeling that Mao Wang did not intentionally act this way. There likely is some hidden reason.

Honestly, Jing Yan is very angry at this moment.

He rushed over from Sky Creation City, spending decades, only to be told that he cannot acquire the Chaos Green Lotus upon arrival—anyone in his position would likely be outraged. However, Jing Yan cannot seize it forcefully. The Chaos Green Lotus belongs to Mao Wang, and if Mao Wang insists on not selling, Jing Yan cannot rob him.

”Daoist Mao Wang, please look at this item first.” Jing Yan did not take Mao Wang’s Personal Space but instead tossed a Wizard Crystal.

Mao Wang instinctively caught the Wizard Crystal, and with a movement of Divine Thought, he instantly realized the immense value of the Wizard Crystal.

”Daoist Mao Wang, this item is called a Wizard Crystal, I wonder if you’ve seen it before. Now, I can offer you five thousand of these Wizard Crystals, plus some Top-level Divine Pills that you might use for cultivation, to purchase your Chaos Green Lotus. If you agree, we can trade immediately,” Jing Yan said.

Jing Yan’s offer is indeed very astonishing.

Simply those five thousand Wizard Crystals represent a monstrous value. To know, many Heavenly Venerate Level life’s entire fortune does not amount to a single Wizard Crystal. From this, one can see how tremendous the value of five thousand Wizard Crystals is. Even to High-level Supremes, five thousand Wizard Crystals are a remarkably tantalizing number.

The Five-star forces in the Witch Realm would struggle to present that many Wizard Crystals all at once.

Mao Wang’s breathing became heavy. He was clearly tempted.

”Supreme Jing Yan, I am really sorry, I still cannot sell the Chaos Green Lotus to you,” Mao Wang ultimately shook his head.

Jing Yan focused his eyes, frowning, ”Daoist Mao Wang, my offer is already very high. However, if you are not satisfied with my offer, we can still negotiate.”

”Supreme Jing Yan!” Mao Wang slightly intensified his tone.

He raised his head, seriously looking at Jing Yan and said, ”Even if you give me your entire Personal Space, I cannot hand over the Chaos Green Lotus to you. Supreme Jing Yan, I am truly powerless.”

By the time Mao Wang said this, Jing Yan knew that this time he can only leave empty-handed. Mao Wang indeed cannot sell him the Chaos Green Lotus.

”Alright!”

”Daoist Mao Wang, if you change your mind, you can send a message to Sky Creation City anytime.”

”Then... I will take my leave!” Jing Yan said.

Mao Wang immediately felt a sense of relief.

Jing Yan’s silhouette flickered a bit, then paused, suddenly asking, ”Daoist Mao Wang, did you change your mind because someone behind you forced you to act this way?”

”Ah?” Upon hearing Jing Yan’s sudden question, Mao Wang’s body violently trembled, and his facial expression changed once more.

”No...no,” Mao Wang quickly regained composure and hurriedly denied it.

Jing Yan coldly smirked and nodded.

Although Mao Wang denied it, Jing Yan was already certain. Indeed, someone forced Mao Wang to change his mind. This person, Jing Yan temporarily does not know who it is. But it’s surely someone with a deep relationship with Mao Wang, capable of making Mao Wang willing to offend Jing Yan and pay such a gigantic price.

Who could it be?

Cold lines formed in Jing Yan’s mind.

”Farewell!” Jing Yan flashed away.

...

Upon returning to Sky Creation City, Jing Yan immediately investigated information regarding Mao Wang, and the massive institution kicked into operation. Jing Yan quickly knew everything he wanted.

”Bao Yi! Reckless creature!” Jing Yan quietly uttered a name in the Void.

With this Life named Bao Yi, Jing Yan was quite familiar, having seen him once before.
